The higher you stand, the harder you fall.

Especially in the US, there are too many people who bully others and have too many enemies all over the world.

The moment he falls, countless people will rush to devour his corpse.

Unfortunately, this trend is irreversible.

However, Cao Kun did not witness this scene until he traveled through time.

Cao Kun doesn't have the habit of celebrating New Year's Day, and there's nothing decorated at home.

He simply took a videotape and put it into the VCR.

Soon, scenes from "Saw" appeared on television.

Sivis dared not deceive Cao Kun and actually released the Saw videotapes and DVDs to the market during the New Year's Day holiday.

Although the United States claims to be the most technologically advanced country, it has always been a major user of video recorders.

Even after DVDs became widespread in most other countries, the most commonly used medium in the US was still videotapes.

Today marks the first day of release for the Saw family video products.

Cao Kun naturally couldn't see the sales figures, but given the massive news coverage and the huge traffic generated by Jigsaw, the numbers should be pretty good.

In the afternoon, Cao Kun didn't receive the sales data; instead, he received a call from Chariz Theron.

Cao Kun answered the phone and asked, "Are you in danger?"

Charlize Theron: "Let's talk in person. I'll give you the address of my new home."

After hanging up the phone, Cao Kun quickly received a text message from the other party.

Charlize Theron spoke calmly, as if she were not in danger.

But Cao Kun still planned to make the trip.

Because the end of the year has just passed, and the new year is just around the corner.

Chariz Theron should pay him the $500,000 at the end of last year and the $800,000 at the beginning of this year.

Right now, he's short of money.

This money will put his mind at ease.

Charlize Theron's new home is naturally located in a safe and affluent neighborhood.

However, she moved away from her original community.

Perhaps it also signifies a desire to distance oneself from previous dangers.

Charlize Theron's new home clearly underwent a thorough cleaning and tidying up before the New Year.

Not only did everything look so clean, but the flowers and shrubs in the garden were also extremely lush.

After passing through the front garden, Cao Kun entered the living room.

"Wait me a moment."

Charlize Theron's voice came down from upstairs, but no one was there.

Cao Kun raised his voice and said, "Your door is open, aren't you afraid of bad guys coming in?"

Chariz laughed and said, "I only told you the password. No one else can get in. The neighbors here are friendly, they won't cause any trouble."

Cao Kun: "You overestimate human nature. A beautiful woman like you, living alone, is the perfect target."

Are you complimenting me?

With those words, Charlize Theron walked down the stairs in her high heels.

Even though he's used to seeing beautiful women, Cao Kun was still a little amazed when he saw Charlize Theron at this moment.

She wore a white apricot silk off-the-shoulder dress, the material of which made the dress cling tightly to her body, showing off her beautiful curves.

When she takes a step, her thighs bulge against her clothes, revealing the smooth lines of her legs. This subtle, alluring beauty has a unique charm.

Like Nicole Kidman, Charlize is slim and tall. Compared to Angelina Jolie's S-shaped figure, she may not seem as sexy at first glance, but their charisma makes up for this.

Nicole Kidman is elegant and graceful, like a lady from a noble family.

Charlize Theron has a powerful presence, rarely smiles, and is like a queen.

Both of these qualities, whichever they are, have a tremendous attraction and a desire to conquer in men.

In addition to her stunningly long legs, her feminine charm is equally undeniable.

But few people know that both of them have a side that is not widely known.

Nicole Kidman always likes to put on airs, is arrogant at heart, and habitually looks down on others.

But when she encounters someone truly powerful, she feels admiration for them.

You can't be polite to someone like her; the more polite you are, the less she'll take you seriously.

Charlize Theron usually has a stern face and exudes a powerful aura, but inside, there lives a little girl.

Cao Kun looked Charlize Theron up and down and asked, "Don't you get tired of wearing high heels at home?"

Charlize Theron rolled her eyes in a way few people have ever seen: "I dressed up to welcome you, and you're laughing at me."

Cao Kun sat down on the sofa in the living room: "I see your sincerity, but a check is more sincere than that."

Charlize Theron sighed and sat down next to Cao Kun: "Do you always date women like this? Will you ever be able to find a girlfriend?"

Cao Kun: "I've never thought about finding a girlfriend."

Charlize Theron asked, puzzled, "Why?"

Cao Kun: "I have a high-risk job. I could be targeted by powerful monsters at any time. I don't want to have any more weaknesses."

Charlize Theron was taken aback, then a little touched: "You may seem cold and indifferent on the surface, but you have a warm heart."

Cao Kun said calmly, "Everyone's heart is warm when it's first dug out. Except for the dead."

Charlize Theron's eyes widened: "???"

After a long pause, Charlize Theron finally came to her senses: "Have dinner with me, and I'll give you a check."

Cao Kun narrowed his eyes, and a malevolent aura immediately emanated from his body.

Charlize Theron felt the pressure and quickly said, "I told you before, my father was shot and killed by my mother, and my mother has also passed away."

I am alone now, with no relatives or friends.

Today is New Year's Day, so please do your employer a favor.

“Okay,” Cao Kun agreed.

According to news reports that Cao Kun recalls, Charlize Theron's interpersonal relationships seem relatively simple.

She had a boyfriend, and they dated for a long time, but they eventually broke up.

However, that was many years later; now, Charlize Theron is still single.

Charlize Theron only makes simple meals.

Dinner was naturally ordered from a restaurant outside.

Cao Kun can cook, but he has no intention of cooking for himself.

Now, at home, it's Seiko Yamashita who does the cooking.

Having grown accustomed to a life where everything was done for him, he must have gone mad to serve another woman.

Around 7 p.m., the restaurant's delivery truck brought the dinner over and placed it on the tables before leaving.

As for the plates after the meal, they will come back to collect them the next day.

Dinner was plentiful, featuring high-quality ingredients that, despite their simple cooking, tasted quite good.

However, the drive took some time, and we missed the optimal dining time, which slightly affected the taste.

Charlize Theron asked Cao Kun, "What would you like to drink?"

Cao Kun: "Do you have a full range of wines here?"

Charlize Theron: "You can come with me to take a look."

Upon entering the wine cellar in the basement, Cao Kun saw a large quantity of wine.

We have all kinds of wines, including red wine, white wine, whiskey, brandy, and vodka.

Cao Kun exclaimed in surprise, "You're a drunkard?"

Charlize Theron: "No, I'm not. My father's alcoholism and domestic violence left me with deep psychological trauma. I hate alcoholics. I just like to drink a little, just a little."

Cao Kun understood; it meant drinking a little when you were lonely or feeling isolated.
