Sun Lifang, diagnosed with terminal cancer, reflected on her hard-fought life in the hospital. She had once enjoyed immense glory, riding on her husband's success, with a loving family and chil...
Unfortunately, because they didn't keep in touch much and so much time had passed, she couldn't remember what happened to Mrs. Tong afterwards.
There are cases of people getting rich overnight, and some have made their fortunes by speculating in stocks or studying the Mark Six lottery. Even if Sun Lifang knew which stock would go up, she wouldn't dare to buy it now.
She only works in areas she is familiar with and never touches anything she doesn't understand. In her past life, Zhou Xinya often said that she was inflexible and told her to be more clever.
Rather than saying Sun Lifang is stupid, it's more accurate to say she's more afraid of human nature.
If she makes a profit, can she guarantee she'll stop immediately? One day, she'll find another opportunity, and regardless of winning or losing, it will be torture.
Sun Lifang dared not gamble; being able to be reborn was already an immense blessing.
Everything she has now was obtained through the [Zhiyuan] APP. The world exists based on equal exchange, and so do interpersonal relationships.
Why did Mrs. Tong's attitude change so drastically today? In the past, Sun Lifang might have been complacent, but the 28-year-old Sun Lifang was not. She was perfectly clear-headed because she had provided value to Mrs. Tong.
She desperately wanted to share her feelings, but who could she confide in here? She was surrounded by wealthy women she didn't know well, so Sun Lifang, who was weaker than her, became the best option.
Sun Lifang provided her with emotional value that no one else could replace.
...
Although it is a villa in the suburbs, the interior design and the staff here look more like a high-end club.
The hall was bustling with people, and outside the window, rows of villas stood one after another. The heavy, thick velvet blue curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows created a very oppressive atmosphere.
I glanced at my watch and realized that less than three hours had passed.
Since her rebirth, Sun Lifang has finally come to understand what it means for each day to feel like an eternity.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she asked someone for directions and went outside for some fresh air.
"We have massage, beauty, and foot bath services here. If you get tired from shopping, you can relax here," the greeter said, leading the way.
"This is where a leisure club is going to be built," the young hostess pointed to the distance and said, "There's a fish pond under construction over there. Why don't you get some fresh air here? You'll be having lunch later."
Sun Lifang nodded: "I understand."
Not far away, there was a garden. Sitting on a stone bench in the garden, smelling the natural fragrance of grass and flowers, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The banquet is so boring. They just ate not long ago, why do they have to eat again soon?
Sun Lifang had no appetite, but felt sleepy, so she squinted and drooped her head.
"Boss lady, so you're here." Li Zhi's voice suddenly came from beside her, and Sun Lifang slowly opened her eyes. The man in front of her looked excited.
"The prizes have been announced! We came in second place, and the prize is a 30,000 yuan shopping card. The boss wants you to go and collect the prize on his behalf; you can buy whatever you want with it."
Now, Sun Lifang was no longer sleepy and her eyes widened suddenly.
Before he could even ask the question, Li Zhi flashed a proud smile and began to speak eloquently: "When that pen was taken out, you didn't see their expressions, especially Mr. Li, whose eyes were red."
It turns out that when Li Xian first started his business, he had no money. When he signed his first deal, his father rewarded him with that pen, encouraging him to use it to sign more deals.
Not long after the pen was given to him, Li Xian's father passed away.
Every time he saw that pen, he would think of his father, which would fill him with energy. Li Xian did better and better, and he really did sign his name on many important orders with that pen.
Unfortunately, the pen was lost during a company relocation. Mr. Li considered spending a lot of money to buy another one exactly the same, only to find that the factory had already gone out of business.
That particular model was produced a long time ago and it's impossible to make it again.
How did Zhou Yunshi find out? Li Zhi had the same question as Sun Lifang, but he didn't think too much about it. In his eyes, the boss was omnipotent, and he just had to follow along.
In addition to the 30,000 yuan, President Li also signed a long-term cooperation agreement with them. Throughout the journey, whenever Zhou Yunshi was mentioned, Li Zhi grinned, and the corners of his mouth never left his lips.
This was the first time Sun Lifang had learned about another side of Zhou Yunshi.
Bold, meticulous, and hardworking, Sun Lifang quickened her pace when she heard Li Zhi say that they were drinking baijiu (Chinese liquor).
"I've already helped him to his room to rest," Li Zhi stammered under Sun Lifang's persistent questioning.
Sun Lifang's first thought was that he must not have eaten much.
"Alright, I'll go check on it after I receive the prize."
The prize-giving ceremony was different from before. It was held in the second-floor hall, and the gifts were distributed from back to front. The more valuable gifts were placed at the back, and there were people specifically responsible for recording this moment with a large camera, starting with the third person.
"Where's the third place winner? Why hasn't he arrived yet?" The hostess was waiting, while there were many others who hadn't yet gotten a number to participate in the lucky draw, waiting to watch the excitement unfold.
Some won TVs and refrigerators, while others won small shopping cards and other prizes. The prize-giving area was bustling with activity, but Sun Lifang had no time to wait.
She stepped forward, wanting to ask if she could come back later to collect it, but the host shook his head at her.
The atmosphere here is just right, and to satisfy everyone's curiosity, we certainly can't miss this opportunity.
Sun Lifang was engaged in a tug-of-war with the host, while the etiquette staff kept calling out the name of the third place winner, and everyone's excitement gradually grew. Who could it be?
"No, how about this?" The female host refused Sun Lifang's offer, but still gave her a suggestion: "If no one else is around, I'll give it to you."
Before he could finish speaking, a person suddenly rushed out from the crowd.
The girl reapplied powder to her face, but it still couldn't hide her red and swollen eyes. As if she had finally found a way to get her hands on someone, she snatched the microphone and said in a shrill voice, "Who's going to give it to? Are you trying to steal the prize while I'm not around?"
