At two in the morning, Huang He tiptoed open the door to his room, then carefully closed it. A tremendous sense of exhaustion washed over him.
Men, after all, are not particular about trifles. Not minding such trivial matters, Huang He kicked off his shoes and collapsed onto the bed. He burrowed into the covers, ready to sleep.
But something was wrong. The covers felt warm, and it seemed he wasn't alone.
"Broth...er-in-law... you... died... so... tragically...!" a ghostly voice whispered in Huang He's ear. Huang He yelped in terror, fumbling for the switch by his pillow. A disheveled female ghost was lying on his bed, staring at him with glowing green eyes.
"Leng Zhimeng, why are you playing a ghost?" Huang He, despite his confusion, could tell this female ghost was his sister-in-law, Leng Zhimeng.
"Hmph, if you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear. I ask you, where were you so late at night?"
"I... I... I went to eat barbecue, is it not allowed to eat late-night snacks?" Huang He hesitated before replying.
"Nonsense! If you went for barbecue and late-night snacks, why didn't you take me?"
"I thought you were already asleep."
"You disappeared at nine o'clock at night. Have you ever seen a high school senior preparing for college who sleeps at nine o'clock?"
"This..." Huang He was speechless. Leng Zhimeng pressed her advantage, "Hmph, brother-in-law, don't you think I know what you were doing? You must have gone out to play with those slutty women! How could you do this to my sister?"
"I didn't..." Huang He's denial lacked conviction.
"Heh, you still want to lie to me? You never expected that woman to be so foolish as to call my room, did you? Brother-in-law, stop denying it. Be a man and admit what you've done!" Leng Zhimeng exclaimed.
"I am a man, and I admit my actions. So I can swear to heaven that I have no relations with any woman in this hotel. I am innocent!" Huang He stated righteously, his conviction finally firm.
"If you have any proof, then show it to me! Prove that your brother-in-law did those dirty things. Do you have any evidence?"
"I..." Leng Zhimeng's momentum faltered. Of course, she had no evidence.
"Then why did you come back so late? What time is it?" Leng Zhimeng pressed.
"What time I return is my business, what does it have to do with you!" Huang He shifted the offensive. "However, Leng Zhimeng, I can tell you that I just went out for barbecue with friends and discussed business. Are you satisfied now?"
"Although I am indeed your brother-in-law, brother-in-law is now single. Let alone that I haven't done anything, even if brother-in-law really does something in the future... I mean, finds a girlfriend, it would be normal, legal, and morally acceptable. It has nothing to do with you, understand?"
"You... Hmph, Mom was right, you'll be seduced by those wild women as soon as sister leaves!" Leng Zhimeng said, huffing indignantly.
"Uh... Mom said that?" Huang He asked curiously. Leng Zhimeng glared at Huang He, then said, "Since you say you just went for barbecue, do you have proof?"
"Of course!" Huang He nodded.
"Then show me the proof!" Leng Zhimeng extended her small hand.
"What if I have proof, what will you do?" Huang He raised an eyebrow.
"I'll sell my little sister to you!" Leng Zhimeng puffed out her chest.
"Really?"
"Really!"
"Alright then!" Huang He chuckled and suddenly pulled Leng Zhimeng into his embrace. Leng Zhimeng was startled and cried out, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing? I'm your sister-in-law! You can't do something so immoral!"
"Heh heh, didn't you just say you'd sell your little sister to me? Aren't you my little sister?" Huang He leered.
"I meant my two older sisters, not myself!" Leng Zhimeng was terrified. This brother-in-law looked like he had been holding back for a long time, and people said she looked the most like her eldest sister. Would she be taken advantage of by her brother-in-law on this occasion?
"Be good and smell this!" Huang He pushed Leng Zhimeng's head against his chest. "How is it, do you smell it now?"
"Ah? Smell what?"
"Smell the scent of smoke and fire on me!"
Upon hearing Huang He's words, Leng Zhimeng finally realized. There was indeed a strong smell of charcoal fire on Huang He, mixed with the enticing aromas of grilled meat, snails, and various other foods, which made Leng Zhimeng feel a bit hungry.
Such a strong barbecue smell would require at least an hour spent at a barbecue stall to acquire. This was indeed the best evidence that Huang He had been to a barbecue.
"Brother-in-law, did you really go for barbecue?" Leng Zhimeng asked weakly.
"Hmph!"
"Brother-in-law, I was wrong. I'm going to bed, but I promise, I'll give you my sister in the future!" Leng Zhimeng suddenly leaped off the bed and onto the floor. Without even putting on her shoes, she fled barefoot.
"Sister!" Huang He recalled Leng Zhiruo's figure and Leng Zhiwen's aloof face, feeling a surge of passion once more. His body, which had just relaxed, seemed to become aroused again. xxs壹贰
Alas, compared to these two sisters-in-law, the women before seemed like mere dross.

"Zhimeng, this is Liu Nian, the mobile phone electronics expert from Huaqiangbei that I told you about!" Huang He shook hands with a young man while introducing him to Leng Zhimeng. The driver from yesterday was also present.
"We chatted and ate barbecue together last night for several hours. We hit it off immediately. From now on, these two will join our Jiangnan Group and become the brightest stars of our group's future!" Huang He boasted loudly as he held Liu Nian's hand, making the young man blush with embarrassment.
"Not at all, I just understand some mobile phone technology," Liu Nian said humbly.
"You understand a little? If you understood a little, could you build a mobile phone by yourself? And a color-screen mobile phone at that! Nokia's latest model is no better than this!" Huang He exclaimed.
"Actually, it's not that difficult. After all, Taiwan's MediaTek released its MTK platform open solution this year, and various devices and components can be purchased around Shenzhen. I just procured these parts, assembled them, and wrote some control programs to put together a mobile phone. Without these ready-made components, I wouldn't be able to do it!" Liu Nian was even more modest.
"But no matter what, you are the first individual in Huaqiangbei to build a mobile phone!" Huang He said proudly.
"It's really nothing. My peers call this a 'shanzhai' (knockoff) phone, with no future or profit. It's just that Boss Huang thinks highly of me and is willing to invest!" Liu Nian said, touched.
