Yang Suiyi is a total homebody whose favorite pastime is writing novels on various websites. However, she inevitably abandons every single one, earning curses from countless readers while gleefully...
The next day, Suiyi woke up very early, but instead of getting out of bed immediately, she sat on the bed, seemingly lost in thought.
"Master, what's wrong?" the system asked.
"It's alright. I was thinking that with the original owner's appearance, her parents must have been extraordinary. After all, when it comes to genetics, beauty is passed down and ugliness is passed down. Just like the ancient royal families, their children were mostly handsome men and beautiful women. This is the result of many years of genetic modification."
"Master, perhaps the original owner had a genetic mutation from birth," the system said, disbelieving.
"That's bullshit. If you're so capable, show me how you can mutate!" Sui Yi rolled her eyes at the system and retorted.
"Master has forgotten that I am just a string of data, merely residing in this body."
"Regardless of whether it's your body or not, can you honestly say you're not using it?"
"Uh, okay!"
"I was just thinking, if I help the original owner find out about their background, would I get more points? After all, every mission requires the cannon fodder to achieve a comeback, but it doesn't say where the limit of this comeback is. Completing more missions that are good for the original owner's development is definitely the right thing to do."
"Master, you're amazing. Actually, there's another way to earn points, but you'll have to discover it yourself," the system said.
"Huh? I say, Tong'er, why do you seem to be behaving so well lately?" Sui Yi was genuinely puzzled because the system hadn't been arguing with her lately when they communicated.
"Because I've fallen in love with my master!"
"Really? Then give me a martial arts manual!" Sui Yi said shamelessly.
"Master, I've given you my heart, I have nothing else to offer." The system's jaw almost dropped to the ground. It hadn't expected that even though it had behaved so obediently, its host would still want to mess with it.
"Sigh, it's still as useless as ever," Suiyi sighed.
Sui Yi stopped talking to the system, got out of bed, picked up her clothes, and went into the bathroom. At the same time, she made up her mind to find out the original owner's background.
When Suiyi came out of the bathroom, half an hour had passed. She took her room key and went to the counter to check out. Because this hotel belonged to the Qin family, Suiyi made a phone call and, with permission, stayed in the presidential suite without needing her ID card. If she remembered correctly, the original owner's ID card should be with the family that adopted her; she hadn't taken anything with her when she was kicked out.
After resolving the issue with the thugs, Sui Yi still had an important matter to attend to: finalizing the separation agreement to sever ties with the Tao family who had adopted the original owner. She then needed to go back and register her household and obtain an ID card. Although she could easily obtain one using her hacking skills, she always adhered to the principle of following the right path. Moreover, she should also help the original owner settle old scores, otherwise, unnecessary troubles might arise once she entered high society.
The family that adopted the original owner was surnamed Tao, lived in H City, and ran a restaurant. As for their current situation, we'll have to go and see for ourselves.
Sui Yi booked a flight to H City online, got up and rushed to the airport. After boarding the plane, Sui Yi closed her eyes to rest. About an hour later, the plane landed, and Sui Yi followed the crowd off the plane. Checking the information on her phone, Sui Yi headed straight for her destination.
About half an hour later, Sui Yi stood in front of a restaurant. "Tao's Restaurant. It seems this family has been doing quite well these past few years," Sui Yi chuckled.
Sui Yi walked in and saw the receptionist. She went over and said, "Hello, miss. Is your boss in?"
"Oh, our boss is in a meeting right now, so you might have to wait a bit. Miss, please sit in the lounge area and wait a while." Although she was puzzled as to why someone would come looking for her boss, she still maintained good manners.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, several men came down the stairs, talking as they went. Sui Yi got up and walked over, interrupting them.
"Boss Tao, I need to talk to you about something?" Sui Yi asked directly.
The middle-aged man was clearly displeased, but he nodded in agreement, "Jie'er, could you see these distinguished guests off for me?"
“Yes, Father.” After saying that, the young man led the others out, while Boss Tao looked at Suiyi and gestured for her to sit on the sofa.
"I wonder what business this young lady has with me?" Boss Tao said.
"My name is Tao Tao. The reason I'm here to see you is simply to ask for your cooperation in signing an agreement at the police station," Sui Yi stated her purpose quite bluntly.
The middle-aged man's pupils contracted slightly. Clearly, he remembered his former adopted daughter. He looked at the stunning woman before him, somewhat uncertain, and asked, "Are you Tao Tao?"
"Yes, I've come to find my identity."
"Okay! Come with me." After saying that, Sui Yi followed him into the car and went to the local police station to sign an agreement severing ties. After receiving the documents, Sui Yi turned to leave.
"Wait a minute," Boss Tao called out to Sui Yi.
"Is there anything else, Mr. Tao?"
How have you been these past few years?
"What do you think? To be honest, I admire Mr. Tao's upright character. Considering how good you've been to me in the past, I won't hold your wife accountable. If Mr. Tao hadn't been more efficient, I don't know what I might have done. From now on, be careful." Sui Yi walked away without stopping. Frankly, if things didn't go smoothly, Sui Yi would probably resort to some drastic measures; it's rare for someone to cooperate.
Watching Sui Yi's departing figure, the man was somewhat dazed. Just then, he heard a voice calling out, "Dad, what's wrong? Who was that woman looking for you?"
"Oh, the daughter of an old friend, she's here to see me on behalf of her father. Alright, let's go."
Seeing his father's obvious reluctance to say more, a seed of doubt was planted in his heart.
