A Life of Financial Freedom

Ordinary people always fantasize about financial freedom, beautiful women, luxury cars, yachts... However, compared to all these material things, Chu Fang desires a sincere relationship even more, ...

Chapter 766 Experiment

Chu Fang drove towards Yuhang, glancing at his destination: "Zhejiang University?"

"Hmm." Chang Shen hummed softly, "My parents are professors at Zhejiang University."

"Oh, a son of a privileged student," he teased with a smile.

Despite knowing each other for so many years, he had almost never inquired about Chang Shen's family situation.

"Be careful." Chang Shen looked out the window.

Chu Fang tilted his head: "Is your home a den of dragons and tigers? You can't go there?"

“Not really, but you should be prepared,” Chang Shen replied. “My dad is a professor of literature, with a strong, pedantic air about him; my mom is a professor of bioengineering, and she’s sharp-tongued and cold-hearted.”

Your family is really weird...

Chu Fang didn't take it to heart. Over the years, he had met all sorts of people.

After driving over 100 kilometers, I arrived in Yuhang, a city full of internet-famous spots.

When he first arrived at Chang Shen's house, he had just gotten out of the car to buy some gifts when two or three graceful women came over to take selfies and various group photos with his Bentley.

The two entered the supermarket, and Chu Fang asked, "What do your parents like?"

Chang Shen, hands in his pockets, said, "My dad likes antiques and artifacts, and my mom likes all kinds of biological and genetic instruments."

Chu Fang: "..."

Are there no things that normal people like?

In the end, Chu Fang bought ordinary fruit baskets, milk, nutritional supplements, and the like.

As soon as Chu Fang stepped out of the supermarket, a large crowd gathered at the Bentley, displaying various poses.

Chu Fang pressed the car key, then revved the engine and sped away, leaving the crowd of onlookers behind.

"That car is pretty cool."

"Nonsense, that's a Bentley, worth five or six million."

"Hiss... ...It's so expensive."

“... ..."

Traffic congestion in Yuhang is comparable to that in Shanghai. It took me half an hour to travel less than ten kilometers before finally arriving at Zhejiang University.

Cars are not allowed on campus, so the two walked in.

Chu Fang looked around and sighed, "University life is still the best!"

Everywhere you looked, there were long, white, beautiful legs, shy, youthful faces, alluring figures, and a youthful charm...

Chu Fang was very disappointed.

I didn't meet Zhong Tingyue in college, so I missed four wonderful years and also missed the period when Ms. Zhong was at her most mentally unstable.

He really wanted to see what level Zhong Tingyue had reached when she was obsessed with men to the point of madness.

Chang Shen glanced at his phone: "We need to go to the classroom first."

Why?

"I don't have a house key, and my mom is in class."

The two then headed towards the teaching building and soon arrived at a classroom. They went to the back of the classroom and sat in the last row.

Chu Fang finally met Chang Shen's biological mother, Du Yujie. She had short hair, wore black-rimmed sunglasses, and dressed simply, exuding the aura of a strong woman.

Standing on the podium, Du Yujie said, "Bio-genetic engineering is a profound discipline. I have been studying this industry for decades and I am still standing outside the door without ever getting there."

"Most of you chose this major because of your parents' wishes. If you're not interested in it, I hope you switch majors as soon as possible to save your time and, more importantly, my energy. If it weren't for the school's requirement for teachers to give lectures, I wouldn't bother teaching you idiots."

“You might think I’m being sarcastic, but I’d like to say that you’re all pretty stupid,” Du Yujie said. “I have four children, three boys and one girl, all graduates of Ivy League schools abroad. In my eyes, they’re all idiots. Can you compare to them?”

Then Du Yujie began her lecture, which Chu Fang found completely confusing.

He didn't come to his senses until the bell rang, and Du Yujie was already close to him.

Chang Shen stood up and introduced, "This is my friend Chu Fang."

"Friend?" Du Yujie looked Chu Fang up and down. "Boyfriend?"

Chu Fang: "...Auntie isn't what you think."

"What a pity." Upon hearing this, Du Yujie said softly, "If you two were in a relationship, I could study whether the biological gene sequence changes when same-sex relationships occur, where the changes occur, and whether it is possible to completely turn a man into a woman. These are all excellent research topics."

Chu Fang: "..."

No, Auntie, can you please listen to what you're saying?

Is that human language?

Du Yujie asked, "Chu Fang, you must be quite wealthy, right?"

Chu Fang: "Not bad."

Du Yujie asked calmly, "Would you be willing to donate a lot of money to help me with my research?"

Huh?

Chang Shen frowned slightly: "Mom, this is my friend."

"Chu Fang is your friend, but now that I know him, he's my friend. I'm chatting with my friend, so don't interrupt."

As Du Yujie spoke, she turned to Chu Fang and asked, "Are you willing?"

Chu Fang smiled awkwardly: "Okay, I'm very willing to contribute to human development."

Afterwards, Du Yujie left and returned shortly with a piece of paper. It was a treaty donated by Chu Fang to Du Yujie for research purposes, and it also included a bank card number.

This completely baffled Chu Fang.

Isn't it more straightforward and direct?

He quickly came to his senses and then called the bank to transfer ten million to that account.

Du Yujie frowned: "Ten million is a bit low, but it'll do."

Chu Fang: "..."

The bell rang, and Chu Fang and Chang Shen continued with a boring class. After class, Du Yujie led the two of them out of the classroom.

Instead of going home, he left the campus and went to a hotel outside the campus. He booked a private room, which was already occupied.

Chang Shen's father, Chang Jie, is his father, and he has two brothers and an older sister.

Everyone took their seats, and as the dishes were served, Du Yujie said directly, "I'll get straight to the point. I called you back today to announce something: your father and I are divorced."

"As for the reason for the divorce, your father cheated on you and had an affair, which seems to be a legitimate reason."

“I admit I had an affair.” Chang Jie nodded, but her voice suddenly rose eight octaves. “But you forced me to! Tell me, since we got married, have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a wife and mother?”

"You married me only to research your so-called genetic engineering. I've been running the household and everything else. Even after we got married, we had to get your permission to sleep together. I've had enough of this over the years!"

Du Yujie replied calmly, "That makes sense."

Chang Jie looked at the four children: "What are your opinions?"

Sister Chang Shen said, "Oh."

The two brothers shrugged: "Whatever."

Chang Shen chewed his food slowly and deliberately, seemingly unaware of the news of his parents' divorce.

Sister Chang Shen asked, "Besides your divorce, is there anything else?"

"No," Du Yujie replied.

Sister Chang Shen stood up: "Then I'm leaving."

Then the two brothers left as well. Chang Shen finished chewing his food, wiped his mouth, and said, "You two should handle your own business. Don't bother me."

After saying that, Chang Shen left, and Chu Fang quickly followed behind.

Stepping out of the hotel, Chang Shen put his hands in his pockets and asked, "Aren't you confused?"

Chu Fang nodded: "Mm."

Chang Shen walked along the road: "Actually, it's nothing. My mother dedicated herself to biological genetic engineering, burning herself out. Not only her, but also our coming into this world was an experiment by my mother, an experiment that has lasted for more than 20 years and is still going on today."

"My dad couldn't stop my mom's experiments, and he kept patching things up at home until today when it suddenly broke out."

"To be honest, I was quite surprised that my dad had endured it for over twenty years. He's incredibly patient."

Chu Fang bought two skewers of lamb: "Is the reason you want to commit suicide because of your mother's heartlessness?"

“Part of it,” Chang Shen said, eating a lamb skewer, “but I think the majority of the reason is due to my own actions.”

"So what do you think about your parents' divorce?"

"I see with my eyes."

Chu Fang: "..."

You have a good sense of humor.

The two had a meal in Yuhang and then returned to Shanghai. Chu Fang still slept in the living room, wary of Chang Shen's suicidal behavior.

Late at night, moonlight streamed through the window and fell on Chu Fang. He suddenly woke up, thirsty, and saw a piece of paper on the table. He looked closely and read: "Chu Fang, it's a pleasure to meet you..."

Chu Fang woke up suddenly and ran towards Chang Shen's room. By the moonlight, he saw a bottle of medicine on Chang Shen's bedside table.

"You fucking bastard!"

He recognized it immediately; it was a suicide drug, and he had also tried to use it before.

Chu Fang immediately called the emergency center.
