After Holt left, Wang Xiuyuan looked at Wells with a sharp gaze.

"Speak up."

This short "Speak up" was anything but simple, leaving Wells completely dazed; he truly didn't know what he was supposed to say.

A bewildered Wells responded, "Speak up? What should I say, Boss? What do you want me to say?"

"You guys have been looking at me all day with such shifty eyes, pointing and whispering behind my back. Why is that?"

For a better experience, read on Taiwan Novel Website.

With things put so bluntly, how could Wells not understand what the boss wanted him to say? If he'd just asked like that earlier, wouldn't he have understood?

Wells said, caught between laughter and tears, "Boss, did you look in the mirror after getting up this morning? Your complexion is incredibly haggard right now."

Hearing this, Wang Xiuyuan's breath hitched. He had woken up so late this morning that he hadn't even gone to the bathroom to wash up, so he really hadn't looked in the mirror.

It seemed the intense 'match' last night had severely drained his physical strength, which was why his current mental state appeared so poor.

Just as Wang Xiuyuan was about to get up and head to the bathroom, Wells hesitated for a moment before speaking again.

"Boss, when you were playing that 'competitive match' with that beautiful woman last night, you forgot to close the window. So, that football match of yours was basically a live broadcast.

In the future, remember to check the room's facilities before the match officially begins.

Um... this is just my personal suggestion. If you have a special fetish for that sort of thing, we can completely understand."

Wang Xiuyuan's vision went dark for a moment, and it took a good while for his sight to gradually return.

This was simply too ridiculous. How could he have known that stupid woman Sharon Stone had left her window open? The curtains had been drawn at the time, after all.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Wang Xiuyuan felt completely numb.

Deep dark circles under his eyes, a slightly pale face, and added to that, Sharon Stone's varied screams and provocative words from last night.

Who in this house wouldn't know that Wang Xiuyuan was showing signs of overindulgence?

Although Sharon Stone was both stupid and mean, Wang Xiuyuan had to give her some credit; she was indeed a very excellent 'professional player'.

Her ball skills were incredibly proficient, her stamina was abundant, and she was full of competitive spirit. Even when trailing in the match, she could still high-spiritedly launch attacks against a powerful opponent like Wang Xiuyuan.

It was only because Wang Xiuyuan was currently relying on his youth—his physical condition, strength, and endurance were all at their lifetime peak—that he managed to win by a narrow margin.

If he were to play a competitive match against Sharon Stone with the physical condition of someone over twenty-five, it would be hard to say who would win.

But one thing was certain: a thirty-year-old Wang Xiuyuan would be utterly defeated by Sharon Stone. That stupid, mean woman's 'football' technical level was truly extraordinary.

Looking at his haggard reflection in the mirror, Wang Xiuyuan felt a moment of panic.

How much time had even passed? He had only played a few matches with these foreign girls. If this continued for a few more years, what would happen?

He quickly opened the system panel to seek a solution.

【heavenly dao system】

Character: Wang Xiuyuan

Strength: 11, Stamina: 12, Intelligence: 13, Willpower: 13

(Average for an ordinary person is 10; human genetic limit is 100)

sin points: 0, merit points: 4338

System Skills: None

He glanced at the merit point data. Yesterday, his merit points were only at 3759, but he hadn't expected them to rise to 4338 today.

It seemed the good deeds he had done previously were continuing to take effect, constantly generating returns for him. This was perfect for purchasing more four-dimensional attribute enhancement points.

Spending four thousand merit points could buy eight enhancement points to increase his stamina to twenty.

Both stamina and strength are data points built upon physical fitness. Once these two stats became stronger, his 'football' competitive level would surely see a qualitative leap.

After a series of operations...

Things went exactly as Wang Xiuyuan had predicted. When his stamina reached twenty points, his physical state recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye. He felt as though he could run ten kilometers right now.

Feeling the continuous changes in his body, Wang Xiuyuan was suddenly filled with confidence. He turned and headed upstairs toward Sharon Stone's room.

He was going to give this crazy woman a good lesson... Westchester County, New York, is over a hundred kilometers from Manhattan. It takes only an hour's drive to reach the bustling heart of New York.

Westchester County is a gathering place for the wealthy, home to countless luxurious estates of all kinds.

Among them is an estate covering 3,400 acres built along the Hudson River. The estate contains seventy-five buildings, private roads, sculpture gardens, an underground art gallery, a playground, a golf course, a farm, a wild forest park, and a lake.

This is the famous Rockefeller Estate.

In 1960, the Rockefeller Family decided to donate most of the estate's outbuildings and recreational facilities to the American federal government. It is now managed and maintained by the U.S. National Park Service.

However, even now, many descendants of the Rockefeller Family still reside within this estate.

Inside one of the small buildings, an old man and a young man were tasting coffee in a study.

The old man leisurely placed two cubes of Taikoo Sugar into his coffee cup, then picked up a spoon and slowly stirred it.

Reynoldson Rockefeller sat upright across from the old man. A cup of fragrant coffee sat on the coffee table in front of him, yet he didn't dare reach out to take a sip, showing just how much of a deterrent the old man was in Renoson's heart.

This old man was named David Rockefeller. He was a third-generation direct descendant of the Rockefeller Family, the fifth of the five Rockefeller brothers, and also the most personally capable among them.

David Rockefeller's path to fame had nothing to do with the family's oil business; instead, it was built on banking.

Since David Rockefeller served as the Chairman of the Executive Committee and General Manager of Chase Manhattan Bank—one of the top ten banks in the world—he successfully increased the bank's net assets from two billion dollars to 3.4 billion dollars.

He successfully expanded the Rockefeller Family's business map into the fields of banking and finance.

However, this third-generation patriarch of the Rockefeller Family was most famous not for his personal ability to make money, but for his heart transplants.

Since 1976, David Rockefeller began replacing his heart due to heart disease. By the time he passed away in 2017 at the age of 101, he had replaced his heart a total of six times throughout his life.

If it weren't for the fact that David Rockefeller's last son died in a plane crash when David was ninety-nine, causing him to lose interest in life, he could have continued replacing his heart and lived even longer.
