The Legend of the Black Widow

Welcome to "I'm Trapped in the Same Day for a Thousand Years," exclusively produced by Feilu Novel Network, narrated by Sang Ze Wang Xiaomo Lao He.

Seeing the change in Li Ruobing's expression, Wu Chen knew that he had figured it out, otherwise the change wouldn't have been like this.

Witch Armor?

Li Ruobing asked, her tone more cautious, as if afraid she might have guessed wrong.

Uh-huh.

Wu Chen smiled and nodded.

Wu Yurong's daughter?

Li Ruobing raised her voice and her eyes widened a little more.

Yes, it's her.

Wu Chen smiled and nodded again.

Li Ruobing sat down, shifted her brows slightly, and looked at Wu Chen with a furrowed brow. Her tone was even somewhat annoyed as she said, "You're going to find Wu Yurong's daughter, and you want her to massage your shoulders and back?"

I'm not afraid of Wu Yurong finding out; I'm just helping him fulfill his musical dream, and I have no other intentions towards him.

Wu Chen sat up as he spoke, then asked, "What happened to the car?"

Are you jealous?

I'm not jealous of you at all!

Li Ruobing's voice is loud again. Don't play dumb. You know that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about danger. Do you understand danger?

Do I need to tell you what kind of person Wu Yurong is?

If you made his daughter fuss over your shoulders and back like a maid, wouldn't he tear you apart?

Li Ruobing reacted strongly, not only because Wu Yurong was very capable, but also because Li Ruobing respected Wu Yurong greatly; Wu Yurong had become somewhat of an idol to him.

The top ten richest people in the East Sea, even the tenth-ranked one, have assets exceeding 6 billion yuan, while the top three all have assets exceeding 10 billion yuan.

A single stock price fluctuation can cause changes in the top three rankings.

However, temporary fluctuations do not affect long-term rankings.

In the past five years, the ranking of the top ten richest people in the East Sea has changed, but mainly the lower-ranked individuals have changed, while the top three have remained unchanged.

The richest man Su Ruiwen of Jinfu Group, who is in the jewelry business; the second richest man is Lu Changxin of Qin'an Industries, who is in the small appliance business; and the third richest man Wu Weidong Lanfushi of Lanfushi, who is in the clothing business.

Wu Yurong is Wu Weidong's eldest daughter. She is 41 years old this year and is currently the vice chairman of Senlan Apparel Group.

Wu Yurong has a daughter named Song Xuan, who is 20 years old this year.

In the East Sea, Wu Yurong can be described as a Legend strong woman. Her Legend is multifaceted, and her life has been full of ups and downs.

Twenty-one years ago, Wu Yurong, who had just graduated from university at the age of 21, got married. It was arranged by his father, Wu Weidong, and the arranged marriage was a union between business families.

Wu Yurong's husband is Song Xiang, the son of Song Hongguo, the owner of the Zhongzhe Province Skylark Group.

Wu Weidong and Song Hongguo were university classmates and were hired instructors.

Although the Skylark Group is also in the clothing business, it differs from Senlan Apparel. Senlan Apparel focuses on men's casual sportswear, while the Skylark Group deals in women's clothing. Therefore, the two companies are not only not competitors, but can also complement each other after the merger. As for marriage, Wu Yurong was extremely resistant. He originally planned to go abroad to continue studying vocal music after graduating from university, and he had no intention of getting married at all. It can be said that everything came out of nowhere. Wu Yurong had strongly resisted at the time, but in the end, for various reasons, he chose to comply.

She still got married.

Although she got married and even had a daughter, she separated from her husband immediately after giving birth.

Later, rumors circulated that Wu Yurong relented and married him because Senlan Apparel was going through a crisis at the time, and Wu Weidong and Wu Yurong had made an agreement that once Wu Yurong married him and had children, she could do whatever she wanted, and Wu Weidong would no longer interfere with her. That's why he agreed to the marriage, and it's also why she decisively separated from her husband without any objection.

This marriage, which Wu Yurong was forced to accept, only lasted for seven years because Wu Yurong and Song Jia had a falling out and became enemies.

The reasons for their falling out are very complicated and difficult for outsiders to know clearly. All that is known is that Song Jia first gave up the clothing brand she co-founded with Wu Jia after their marriage, and then independently founded a menswear brand, entering the field where the Wu Family was located and competing with them.

Wu Yurong was forced into marriage. After the two families fell out, he naturally got a smooth divorce. The only issue was the custody of his daughter.

Wu Yurong won, and he took his then 6-year-old daughter Song Xuan, back to the East Sea.

In the years that followed, the Wu family and the Song Family went to war, entering each other's fields one after another. They used the same niche categories, the same price points, the same target audience, and the same clothing styles, resorting to underhanded tactics and sabotage against each other, engaging in extremely brutal business competition that reached a point where it was either one of them dying.

This business war lasted for a full five years before it ended.

The person who ended this business war was Wu Yurong. Immediately after his divorce and returning to the East Sea with his daughter, he joined the family business and unleashed amazing energy. A year later, he founded Senlan Group, which is currently the women's clothing brand Senlan the highest revenue share.

Wu Yurong may be a business genius, but it just hasn't been discovered yet.

Four years after Wu Yurong founded Senlan Business, the Song Family's Skylark Group collapsed and went bankrupt. The Wu family won, or rather, Wu Yurong won. She single-handedly destroyed her former husband's family, and even drove her ex-husband to his death.

Just months before Bellbird went bankrupt, the Bellbird Group, facing shrinking market share, insufficient revenue, and a tight cash flow, was on the verge of collapse.

In order to save his family and company, Song Xiang came to the East Sea on behalf of the Song Family, begging Wu Yurong to show mercy and to give him money to save Bai Lingniao.

He even said that, for his daughter's sake, he eventually knelt down in public and begged Wu Yurong for the sake of the child.

Wu Yurong didn't even flinch; she simply ordered her men to throw Song Xiang out.

Three months later, the Skylark Group went bankrupt and was liquidated, attracting countless creditors to its door.

On the same day, Song Xiang committed suicide by jumping off a building.

During that period, almost everyone in the East Sea Business Circle was talking about this incident. They all believed that Wu Yurong had driven her ex-husband to his death, and even secretly called her the Black Widow. As a result, Wu Yurong gained an extremely special status in the East Sea. No one dared to provoke her. It was unnecessary and absolutely forbidden to provoke Wu Yurong because she was too ruthless.

It's not just these things; every single method he's used in recent years has been ruthless, especially some of the tactics he employs in business competition to drive his rivals into a corner. They could even be used as teaching cases in universities. He really is something else.

This is also what Li Ruobing likes most about Wu Yurong.

After hearing Wu Yurong's story in the East Sea, Li Ruobing developed a deep respect for the woman. His current situation was similar to Wu Yurong's back then; he was also being forced into marriage by his family, but they were also different.

Li Ruobing made a bet to determine the winner, but if Li Ruobin lost, the result would be the same: he would have to get married.

A woman in shackles who wants independence and complete control over her life must be ruthless enough.

Wu Yurong did it, and Li Ruobing wanted to do it too.

Li Ruobing values personal ability and respects capable people, so Wu Yurong can be said to be the woman Li Ruobing admires most in the East Sea, without exception.

Another point worth mentioning is that Wu Yurong is called Legend because she has a very special characteristic, which is also very similar to Li Ruobing's situation: she is beautiful.

Wu Yurong's current title is Black Widow, but she previously held an extremely prestigious title: the East Sea's Top Beauty. Su Qingying is currently the East Sea's Top Beauty, and the previous owner of this title was Wu Yurong. This is one of the reasons why Li Ruobing could associate Wu Yurong with the surname Song, because Classmate Song is more beautiful than Li Ruobing and reaches the level of Su Qingying. So, generally speaking, her mother must also be extremely beautiful.

Wu Chen, I beg you, think this through, my dear Mr. Wu, can you please not do anything reckless?

Li Ruobing was already issuing a warning.

In fact, Li Ruobing's emotions were more conflicted. She really respected and admired Wu Yurong. Although she had only met Wu Yurong a handful of times in the years she had been in the East Sea, usually at banquets, Wu Yurong was one of the very few people she would actively approach and chat with.

What Li Ruobing was most worried about wasn't how Wu Yurong would treat Wu Chen. He was furious. Li Ruobing no longer questioned Wu Chen's abilities, just as he wouldn't question whether Wu Chen could make Song Xuan willingly massage his shoulders and back like a maid. There was no other possibility.

For Li Ruobing herself, the real question is: what should she do if Wu Chen goes that far?

Everyone knew Wu Chen was Li Ruobing's boyfriend, but it was all fake until today. Now it's all true! What is she going to do?

Or are they conspiring with Wu Chen to deceive Wu Yurong?

The more Li Ruobing thought about it, the more upset he became. He wouldn't let go of Wu Chen, but he also didn't want to deceive his idol, which was something he found difficult to accept emotionally.

What else could he do? All he wanted to do now was stop Wu Chen.

My dear Miss Li, aren't you being a little too nervous? This isn't like you at all.

Wu Chen smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "Those things you're thinking about won't happen, and they won't develop the way you imagine."

Seeing Wu Chen's attitude, Li Ruobing knew that trying to persuade him was useless.

Li Ruobing's face darkened, her expression Bingbing. She stared at Wu Chen for a few seconds, then said slowly, "Wu Chen, don't you think you're a jerk?"

Scum?

Do you?

Wu Chen raised an eyebrow at Li Ruobing.

You see someone is good-looking, so you try to seduce them without considering the consequences. Just so you know, it's not like what you're thinking.

Can you please consider the other person's feelings? Am I being mean to you?

Wu Chen interrupted Li Ruobing, smiling as he asked.

Li Ruobing was speechless. What could she say?

Wu Chen towards him cannot be described as simply good or bad. Although Wu Chen often took advantage of him, the things Wu Chen did for him were related to his entire life.

Ding Ruilong and the entire Ding Family became Wu Chen's rivals because of Li Ruobing, but Wu Chen never asked him for anything in this matter, and he didn't offer Wu Chen any benefits either. Even a back massage required Wu Chen to beg him. He was not as good as Su Qingying.

Su Qingying was both obedient and doting in front of Wu Chen.

Li Ruobing was initially criticizing Wu Chen for being a scumbag, but after hearing Wu Chen's words, she started to think that Wu Chen wasn't a scumbag at all, and that she herself had been rather immature.

Should I then?

Li Ruobing suddenly shook her head, feeling a little flustered, realizing she was overthinking things again.

What the hell is that?

Am I not good to Qingying?

Wu Chen smiled and asked Li Ruobing another question.

Li Ruobing remained silent.

Su Qingying knew very well what Wu Chen had done for Su Qingying.

So what?

Am I a jerk?

Wu Chen asked again.

Li Ruobing maintained her smile.

Not a jerk.

Li Ruobing replied leisurely.

Actually, Li Ruobing's earlier comment about Wu Chen being a scumbag was just an excuse, a pretext to continue stopping Wu Chen. He didn't really believe Wu Chen was a scumbag; he simply couldn't think of any other excuse to stop Wu Chen.

Seeing that Li Ruobin stopped talking, Wu Chen smiled, said nothing more, and got out of bed to get dressed.

Li Ruobing stared at Wu Chen for a while before suddenly saying, "I'll give it to you."

Um?

Wu Chen turned to look at Li Ruobing, smiled, and asked, "What are you giving me?"

What do you think?

Li Ruobing asked in return, Wu Chen was slightly taken aback before realizing, "Don't go looking for Song Xuan, I'm going to your house tonight."

After work, Li Ruobing said he was really going all out; with his personality, he didn't need to overthink things.

He actually established a romantic relationship with Wu Chen, so sleeping together was only a matter of time. This didn't involve whether he was mentally prepared or not, because Li Ruobing didn't need to be mentally prepared at all. She was convinced that Wu Chen would be her life partner, and she had even thought about how many children they would have in the future. Whatever happened in between, would happen. Li Ruobing wouldn't have any resistance. In fact, she even wanted to take the initiative. If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to use the tactic of playing hard to get to control Wu Chen, she wouldn't be resistant, but she would also want Wu Chen to beg her.

Now, in order to prevent Wu Chen from causing big trouble, he decided to give it to him voluntarily.

Actually, this is no big deal; there will be plenty of opportunities to outsmart Wu Chen later.

I think you've misunderstood something.

Wu Chen smiled and looked at Li Ruobing, saying, "My meeting with Song Xuan is different from what you think. Even the massage was just an excuse. Do you understand?"

Li Ruobing was taken aback, then her expression changed. You have to understand, because I know too much, I can make choices that are advantageous to me at any time, for any reason, and under any circumstances.

Whom do I know, and whom do I befriend?

"Benefits" refers to something deeper; I simply want to get to know Song Xuan.

Don't worry about Li Ruobing's change of expression; he understands what Wu Chen means.

Wu Chen meant that his meeting with Song Xuan wasn't about a romantic relationship, but rather that Li Ruobing didn't know why, but he could make the connection and directly linked it to Su Qingying.

Although the circumstances were different, Wu Chen's subtle tactics changed Su Qingying 'Su Qingying influence in the Su Family, turning her from passively waiting to take over to actively rebelling and seizing power.

Although Wu Chen later asked Su Qingying to control the Jinfu Group and do things for her, he simply didn't make the request, not that he couldn't make it.

If he wanted to do something at any time, Li Ruobing thought of his current situation. If Wu Chen asked him to do something for him, the thought made the hairs on Li Ruobing's body stand on end. He realized that he had unknowingly entered a state where he could be completely used by Wu Chen.

He just wanted Wu Chen to beg him. As long as Wu Chen begged him, he would definitely grant his request.

Li Ruobing also thought of Lu Guangnian, Lei Cheng, the man behind Tao Manying, and Zhan Xiumei, who owed Wu Chen a favor.

This is only what he knows and can guess.

Li Ruobing had no idea how much more was unknown to her.

The more she thought about it, the more terrifying it became. She felt that this was very likely a setup, a setup that had been in the works since Wu Chen called her, and was still being set up today.

Li Ruobing, you've been spacing out for so long, what exactly are you trying to do?

Li Ruobing finally came to her senses and looked up at Wu Chen, asking him what was wrong. Wu Chen had already gotten dressed by the time she came to her senses and spoke.

You guess?

Wu Chen, adjusting his cuffs, looked up and smiled at Li Ruobing. After speaking, he smoothed his makeup again, then put one hand in his pocket and said, "Don't think about it anymore. Make your life easier. I won't make you leave."

After saying that, he turned and walked out.

Li Ruobing watched Wu Chen leave from the lounge, listening to the sound of Wu Chen's footsteps disappearing into the distance. He remained motionless for a long time, lost in thought.

A few minutes later, at the Ruifeng Café on the north-facing side of the First Floor 5 in the CBD, Wu Chen, with one hand in his pocket, pushed open the door and entered the cafe. He paused for a moment, looked around, and saw a girl with a single ponytail wearing a baseball cap and a mask sitting by the window on the right. She was dressed mysteriously, as if she was afraid of being recognized.

Wu Chen walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite the girl. He then smiled and said, "Is Classmate Song so afraid of being photographed without her consent?"

This concludes this episode. We hope you'll continue listening!
