After a night of intimacy.

Chen Fan, who had planned to leave the next day, didn't get up in the morning.

He slept until late morning.

Su Ruochu, who had been beside him, had already gotten up and gone to school.

Thinking of the moments from last night, Chen Fan's lips curled into a slight smile.

Ruochu was becoming more initiative now, more womanly.

Lying in bed, he could still smell his wife's faint fragrance on the pillow beside him.

Chen Fan lounged in bed for a while before getting up.

Drawing open the curtains and looking at the bright sun outside, Chen Fan decisively canceled his original plan.

Looks like he'll have to stay one more day in the capital city.

Walking out of the bedroom, there was still the loving breakfast Ruochu had prepared on the dining table.

A note was placed beside it.

"I'm off to school, remember to eat on time."

There was a cute tongue-sticking-out emoji drawn at the end.

Chen Fan smiled, first went to the bathroom to relieve himself, wash up and brush his teeth, then finished all the loving breakfast his wife had prepared.

Might as well consider it lunch.

Taking his phone and wallet, he went out alone.

Just as he reached downstairs, he received a text from Ruochu.

"Big lazy pig, are you up?"

Chen Fan smiled and replied: "Just got up, I'm out now."

Su Ruochu: "I'm quite busy today, might not have time to see you off..."

Chen Fan: "I decided to stay one more day, leaving tomorrow."

Su Ruochu: "Really? Then can we go eat my favorite copper pot hot pot tonight? My treat."

Chen Fan laughed. He immediately replied: "Shouldn't copper pot hot pot be eaten in winter? It's too hot for that in summer."

"Well, I'm graduating soon, won't be in the capital city in winter."

Chen Fan: "Don't worry, you can come back often in the future, don't forget you have many nice houses here in the capital city, you're a landlady here."

Su Ruochu: "So are you coming with me or not?"

"Of course I'm going."

Chen Fan replied with a smile: "You go ahead with your work, don't worry about me, I'll wander around by myself, let's call each other in the evening."

After sending the message, Chen Fan casually hailed a taxi, asking the driver to take him around within the Third Ring Road. To look at any new residential areas or commercial buildings.

The driver could tell from Chen Fan's accent that he wasn't a local.

Perhaps he was an outsider coming to buy property in the capital.

This guy wanted to go inside the Third Ring Road right away, what a big appetite.

Did he really think property prices here were the same as elsewhere?

Though thinking this, money still had to be earned.

The driver drove Chen Fan around the city.

During this time, Chen Fan got out to view a residential complex, asking the driver to wait at the entrance.

But when he came out after looking around, the driver had already disappeared.

Chen Fan shook his head, didn't say anything, just hailed another taxi and continued his tour.

In the afternoon, Chen Fan toured around the Second and Third Ring Roads, honestly, the property prices in the capital now had risen significantly compared to three years ago.

During this time, Chen Fan had his eye on a couple of properties, but after careful consideration, he ultimately didn't purchase them.

He felt that buying at current prices wasn't worth it.

With that money, it would be better to invest in company research and development, which would bring returns faster.

Chen Fan's status was different now, earning money through property hoarding was becoming too slow for him.

There wasn't much to see alone, when passing by the Forbidden City, Chen Fan didn't go in to look around.

Instead, he found a coffee shop, ordered a coffee, asked the staff for paper and pen, then sat by the window writing and drawing.

He was noting down some of the places he'd seen in the afternoon.

Thinking about whether he could acquire a shop within the Third Ring Road.

For Chen Fan, as the group company grew increasingly larger, he couldn't possibly stay in Yunhai forever in the future.

After all, Yunhai was only a second-tier city, whether in terms of policies or talent recruitment, it wasn't conducive to company development.

To expand in the future, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen were undoubtedly the best choices.

Having property in the capital city was naturally Chen Fan's first choice.

If the company came here, then Ruochu would definitely have to come with him.

So, Chen Fan planned to buy a shop in advance, which could be managed by Ruochu when the time came.

If she still wanted to work, then they could hire someone to manage the shop, anyway all the profits would go to his wife, considered as her personal assets.

As for what business to run, Chen Fan hadn't decided yet, flower shop, cake shop would be relatively leisurely, bar, quiet bar would probably be more profitable...

...

After meetings all afternoon, it was finally over.

Su Ruochu quickly packed her things, then politely declined a senior graduate student's dinner invitation, and rushed alone with her backpack towards the school gate.

Outside the school gate on the road, a black Iveco was parked by the roadside.

Seeing Su Ruochu coming out from school, the driver immediately patted his partner beside him.

"She's out."

The partner adjusted his seat, sat up straight looking at Su Ruochu who was crossing the road ahead.

"There are too many people here at the school gate, and there are surveillance cameras. Let's follow her first. Find a better opportunity to make our move."

The driver nodded, started the vehicle, and slowly followed.

Su Ruochu was walking home with an excited face, thinking Chen Fan must have finished his tour and returned home by now.

Thinking about eating copper pot hot pot tonight, Su Ruochu felt her stomach growling with hunger.

"Chen Fan, that big pig, always eating so much, wonder if he'll eat me poor."

Touching her bag, fortunately she brought her wallet.

Inside was her scholarship money from last semester, should be enough to treat that big pig to a meal, right?

Watching Su Ruochu cross the road and enter an alley.

Looking around, there weren't many people on the street at the moment.

The partner in the car said in a deep voice: "Now!"

The driver stepped on the gas and rushed forward.

Su Ruochu heard the sound of a car accelerating behind her, instinctively moved closer to the side of the road to make way.

But unexpectedly, that car suddenly braked, stopping right beside Su Ruochu.

The door pushed open, and a burly man jumped down from the car.

Su Ruochu was stunned for a moment, before she could react, this man reached out to grab Su Ruochu.

"What... what are you doing?"

Su Ruochu was startled, instinctively dodged to the side, but her foot missed the curb, and her body instantly lost control and fell to the ground.

This also caused the man to grab empty air.

The man cursed under his breath, just about to step forward to grab Su Ruochu.

Suddenly a piercing car roar came from behind.

"Damn, who dares to race cars in the capital?"

The man instinctively turned his head to look behind.

He saw a black car speeding towards them.

Before the man could react, he had already been hit and sent flying

And the Iveco beside them was also hit and sent flying, the entire body of the car flew to the middle of the road, finally losing control and flipping over on its side.

The driver hadn't worn his seatbelt, and was thrown up hitting the windshield, his face covered in blood, immediately unconscious, unknown if dead or alive.

That car stopped by the roadside, its entire front completely destroyed, thick smoke billowing.

Two young men jumped down from the car.

One rushed towards Su Ruochu, while the other nervously looked at the man who had been hit and sent flying.

This guy was lying on the ground with his body twisted into a strange arc, spitting blood, clearly not going to make it.

This young man quickly pulled out his phone from his pocket and made a call.

"Bo... boss, some... something happened. We killed someone."
