Chapter 247
Several children stayed in the restaurant for a whole day, and after it closed, they watched Yun Jinyan and her daughter return home. Only then did they look at each other and breathe a sigh of relief.
When it was twelve o'clock at midnight, and the clock just passed that mark, the system rubbed the host's soft cheek and said softly: "Mianmian, the mission of protecting mom is completed."
If you want to disconnect from the world, you can do so at any time.
But it was not surprising that the host would stay in this world until Yun Jinyan died.
This small world is not a mission world arranged by the General Administration, so the tasks are triggered and arranged by the system itself. It fully demonstrates the characteristic of "bias". All task subjects are bound to the host himself. The protagonist, the real or fake daughter, has nothing to do with whether Mianmian can complete the task and leave the world.
"Thank you, uncle~" The child held the round ball of light in his hand, looked at the moon, and was surprised to find that the moon looked like the system uncle.
They are all round and glow.
But the moon is hanging high in the sky, and Uncle System is in the palm of my hand.
System: “You’re welcome.”
Now that the small world's mission has been completed, the system will no longer worry about the host's mission completion status.
This means that it can be completely invisible and watch its host live a happy and carefree life.
Ten years can change many people and many things.
For example, the Li family declared bankruptcy in the business war, and Wu Wan, who has been connected to a mechanical skeleton and can walk like a normal person.
In order to prevent the Li family from becoming desperate, when they were blocking the restaurant entrance and demanding to see Li Zhaozhao, Wu Yin closed the door and called Li Zhaozhao, asking her not to bring trouble to Mianmian's private restaurant.
But Li Zhaozhao still made an appointment to meet the Li couple at a small restaurant.
Yun Mian, Wu Yin and He Fang were in the next box together. They couldn't actually hear anything, but they were still supporting Li Zhaozhao.
In another private room, Li Zhaozhao sat down opposite the Li couple. He poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and then slowly asked the two people opposite him: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
The two were dissatisfied with her disrespectful attitude.
But they did a good job of pretending. Chen Xinya poured tea for herself and her husband with a gentle smile, which made up for Li Zhaozhao's disregard just now.
Putting down the exquisite teapot, Chen Xinya maintained her elegance and composure, and said softly to her daughter who had not returned home for a long time, "We came here just to see how you are doing, Zhao Zhao. You haven't been home for a long time. Mom and Dad are worried that you are alone outside without anyone to take care of you, so we thought of asking you if you want to go back and live for a while? So that we can take better care of you."
His words were so high-sounding, none of the angry curses he directed at Li Zhaozhao on the phone two days before the announcement of bankruptcy.
Li Zhaozhao raised her eyebrows. The round celadon teacup made her fingertips look even more delicate and white. No one could have imagined that it was this girl who had just come of age who had managed to eat up the huge Li family bit by bit over the years.
"No thanks." She smiled and replied, "Thank you for your concern. I'm living well in my own home and have no intention of being an eyesore in other people's homes."
"You kid..." Chen Xinya frowned and said angrily, "What do you mean by other people's home? Isn't mom and dad's home your home?"
"You mean there are surveillance cameras everywhere, every servant is your spy, controlling my every word and action, and constantly pua my home?" Li Zhaozhao asked her with a smile, noticing the sudden change in her and Li Gaoyang's expressions, and sneered sarcastically: "Sorry, I may be too honest, but I never felt that it was my home. I am a person, not a puppet in your hands, and certainly not a tool for you to gain face."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and said to the two people with grim expressions, "I have already told you the answer. If there is nothing else, please go back. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
She turned to leave, but suddenly there was the clinking sound of teacups being thrown heavily behind her.
“Do you really take us seriously?” Li Gaoyang looked at Li Zhaozhao with a heavy gaze. His usually elegant and easy-going appearance was now filled with hidden anger. He said in a concentrated voice, “If we had known you were so unfilial, we should not have brought you back in the first place! We raised you to this age, but you turned out to be an ungrateful person who was rotten to the core!”
Chen Xinya reached out and grabbed her husband's sleeve, constantly signaling him to calm down with her eyes.
Li Zhaozhao stopped walking after hearing this, turned around and looked at them. After a moment's scrutiny, he nodded calmly and said, "Yeah, you just realized now that I'm an ungrateful person? I thought I had already shown my true colors when you kicked me out of your house."
"What's more, you guys who raised me up are really ashamed to say such things?" She sneered sarcastically, "If I remember correctly, you guys never cared about me again after Chen Xinya slapped me in front of the whole school. Isn't the villa I left for you enough to repay you for those two years of abusive upbringing?"
It would have been fine if she hadn't said it. As soon as she mentioned Li Gaoyang, he thought of all the Li family's assets. In the end, after selling all their assets, there was only one villa left, which the whole family was fighting over...
Listening to what Li Zhaozhao said now, it was clear that she did it on purpose. She deliberately caused the Li family to fight over the last assets and make them suffer. She wanted to make the entire Li family unable to live in peace!
This definite guess made him extremely angry. He stared at Li Zhaozhao with bloodshot eyes and asked her word by word, gritting his teeth: "Did you do this on purpose?!"
"Yes, I did it on purpose." Li Zhaozhao gently relaxed his brows, reached out to pick up his unfinished tea, and toasted the angry couple from a distance: "Aren't you here today to celebrate my achievement?"
She finished the tea in her cup, looked up at the two people who were no longer pretending, and said, "The worst thing you have ever done is giving birth to me and then changing me back. If there is a next life, I hope you will strangle me to death the moment I am born. No one wants to be your child. Wu Yin doesn't want to, and neither do I."
"So you want to be Wu Wan's daughter?!" Chen Xinya seemed to be hurt by her words, and her voice became a little sharper.
Li Zhaozhao's expression froze for a moment, then he raised his eyes and said calmly, "No, what's the difference between you and Wu Wan? It's just the difference between a pile of shit and a pile of shit wrapped in sugar. Do you think being a parent is enough to just give birth to a child? I'm a living person, not an object for you to fight over and manipulate."
"I hate your self-righteous arrogance, and I also hate Wu Wan's self-indulgent selfishness. You are all the same kind of people. I don't know how much sin Wu Yin and I committed in our previous lives. Fortunately, we have gotten rid of you, who are called parents but are actually accomplices."
Her words were so harsh and vicious that Chen Xinya and Li Gaoyang couldn't even find more vulgar words to fight back against her. They probably didn't expect that she would become so difficult to control, otherwise they wouldn't have come here so confidently today.
Perhaps in their minds, all of Li Zhaozhao's actions were to attract their attention. Even if she bankrupted the Li family, she was still their daughter and her property was still their property, so they were so perfunctory about winning her back.
Li Zhaozhao hated communicating with these two people, so she broke off relations with them without mercy. Since they still held on to beautiful imaginations, she would completely shatter their fantasies and force them to face the bleak reality.
She didn't bother with the two of them anymore. She told them to take care of themselves, opened the door and left.
The heavy door could not perfectly block out the angry, sharp curses and sounds of smashing and smashing from the men and women in the box. Faint sounds of quarrels and objects breaking continued to be heard. Yun Mian held her chin with her hand and thought about how much compensation they should give her.
Li Zhaozhao was afraid that Mianmian would make a loss in the business, so he told her that if the two people couldn't afford to pay, they should put it on her account.
Yun Mian nodded obediently: "I know, what do you want to eat today? It's rare for us to get together like this, why don't we have hot pot?"
"Okay!" Wu Yin was the first to agree: "More fish balls, the ones you make yourself in your store."
He Fang also nodded and said, "Didn't Zhao Zhao say it was worth celebrating? Let's have a good meal with Mian Mian today. We only want you to prepare the ingredients for the hot pot yourself."
Li Zhaozhao looked at his sister with gentle eyes: "Thank you for your hard work, Mianmian. Today is indeed a good day worth celebrating."
Everything was fine except for the presence of two annoying people.
Yunmian: “…”
The girl, who still had some baby fat on her fair and clean face, puffed out her cheeks, feeling deeply pitiful for herself as the only cook among the four.
"You have to come and help me, or I'll secretly use the unfinished product to fool you!"
After dragging her three sisters to the kitchen, Yun Mian suddenly felt a little more free.
"Mianmian, which university do you want to go to in the future?" He Fang has always been the one who cares most about her studies.
Wu Yin glanced at Yun Mian, who was sitting on a small stool chopping fish balls, and answered for her: "She's probably going to a cooking school. She should go further and further in the field of gourmet food."
After she finished speaking, Yun Mian shook her head and said to the three people, "It's up to you to decide which school to apply to. I have signed up for a cooking competition. Do you want to go to the scene and cheer me on?"
"Cooking competition?" three voices rang out in unison.
Yun Mian smiled so much that her eyes curved into beautiful crescents: "Yes, let's participate in the competition and promote our private restaurant. Maybe it can become as big and powerful as Yun Duo Hotel in the future!"
Three people: "..."
It's good to have dreams, just in case you run into a ghost one day.
After agreeing to go to the cooking competition together in a few days to cheer for the youngest Yunmian, the three of them continued to busy themselves with processing the ingredients in their hands.
Yunmian tilted her head to look at Sister Zhaozhao who was washing green vegetables, and then at Sister Ayin who was marinating pork belly rolls. She couldn't help but turn her body and fall on Sister Hefang next to her, acting like a spoiled child and refusing to get up.
Time flies so fast, but such a fast time makes the sisters better little by little.
Yunmian remembered that her mother once said that her three sisters all had heavy concerns, and that each of them had a wall in their hearts that was difficult to break through.
She was too young to understand then, but thinking back on it now and looking at the sisters who, although not fond of joking, always created a harmonious atmosphere, she guessed that they must have finally broken down that wall and walked out with their backs straight, firm and confident.
Ten years can turn a paranoid kid into a generous and gentle adult. There are still many more decades to come. If they continue to walk together, they will surely become better people, right?
Just like my cooking skills are getting better and better!
I had my second positive today. I had an injection in my butt, took ibuprofen and other medicines. My butt, head and bones all over my body hurt. It's already my limit to finish writing one chapter. It also happened that the small world has been completed, so I won't update today. Good night, my babies, and take precautions when going out.
I also wish all the kids taking the college entrance examination success in getting admitted!
