Chapter 19 System "Host, please stay calm and don't go crazy. ...
After discussing the details of the cooperation, when leaving, Zhao Wanyu looked at Ling Siyan with a complicated look: "Is it because of Ling Yi that you are willing to invest in Zhao Corporation?"
The first half of her life had been smooth sailing. She was born into a wealthy family, her parents were loving, and she was the only daughter, so all their love was given to her.
After graduation, she was able to devote herself to her favorite education career as she wished. She has no pressure in life, her family is there to protect her, and no one can let her suffer any injustice.
But in just one week after the Zhao family's accident, Zhao Wanyu has experienced the fickleness of human nature, and has deeply understood the meaning of the saying "It is easy to add flowers to a brocade, but difficult to send charcoal in the snow."
Ling Siyan glanced at the Lu Xiao father and son who were talking, her eyes full of sincere gratitude: "Yes, I have not been a competent mother for the past ten years. I am very fortunate that there is someone who did not give up on him and helped him when he was the most lonely and helpless."
Looking at Zhao Wanyu at this moment, Ling Siyan felt a little emotional.
When I first met Zhao Wanyu in the office, she was confident and calm, with bright eyes. But when I saw her again today, her eyes were filled with depression and haze.
I guess the experiences of these days must have dealt her a heavy blow.
Adversity can make a person successful, but it can also destroy a person.
"Good deeds will bring good results. This world may not be so prosperous, but cause and effect are cyclical." Ling Siyan smiled and said, "Teacher Zhao, it is because of your kindness and persistence that I was able to help the Zhao family this time."
Zhao Wanyu seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, a look of relief flashed across her eyes. She nodded to Ling Siyan and said with a smile, "I understand. Thank you Ms. Ling for your guidance."
"Actually," Zhao Wanyu's voice was a little more hesitant, "what I did was what I should do as a teacher. I don't deserve such a reward. But the Zhao family is indeed in a difficult situation now, so just consider it as being thick-skinned. I will remember this timely help, and feel free to come to me if you have any problems in the future." Thinking of the huge gap in status between the two families, Zhao Wanyu couldn't help but blush a little.
Ling Siyan smiled and said, "Teacher Zhao, I am a businessman. You have to believe that I will not do business at a loss. As the person in charge of a company, I will not joke about the future of tens of thousands of employees in the company."
"So, you don't have to feel guilty. You did have your reasons for investing in Zhao's company, but Zhao's company itself has financial strength and a good reputation. I made the invitation to cooperate only after my professional team conducted a risk assessment and believed that Zhao's company was worthy of cooperation."
While the atmosphere here was harmonious and joyful, on the other side of the city, Su Ranran, who had spent 3 likes points to watch the live broadcast of the birthday party in advance, threw everything on the table to the floor.
"System, why is the current development completely different from the original?"
"We both come from humble backgrounds, but in the original book, Ling Siyan clearly likes the heroine very much and they get along like real mother and daughter. Why is it that when it comes to me, she only looks down on me?" Su Ranran's eyes were full of resentment, and her hysterical appearance no longer had any of the weakness and harmlessness she had shown before. "Why does she look down on me?"
"Also, in the original book, she clearly didn't accept Ling Yi's bastard until the very end. Why did she change her attitude now and give him 41% of the shares? Even Han Chengyu doesn't have it, so why would she give it to that bastard? It's clearly Han Chengyu's, not mine!"
"Host, please stay calm and don't go crazy." The system's voice was as cold and inorganic as ever. "0081 thinks you need to spend 1 love point to exchange for a mirror to see how hideous your distorted face is now."
Su Ranran paused and asked the system, "0081, what good will it do you if I get mad to death?"
"0081 can switch to a host that might choose a mission target that is easier to conquer, and complete the mission more quickly."
"0, 0, 8, 1." Su Ranran spoke each word with emphasis. "Please, get off the line right now, right now!"
"Standby command received! Will enter standby mode in 30 seconds. Regarding the question just raised by the host, 0081 has come to a conclusion after calculation. The difference between the original work and reality can be explained by the 'butterfly effect'. The so-called butterfly effect refers to - system standby!"
There was no news from Han Chengyu after the birthday party. Ling Siyan called him once and it was Han Jisheng who answered the phone.
"It's Siyan!" The man's voice on the phone was leisurely and contented, "Chengyu went out to play with his girlfriend and his sister. He left his phone at home. How could this kid be so careless? Fortunately, this is Luo's house..."
Hearing this, Ling Siyan hung up the phone.
Once she was sure that the person had not died somewhere unknown to her, she put him behind her mind.
Han Chengyu is already 18 years old and is an adult.
She has fulfilled the legal obligation of support. From now on, Han Chengyu is free to decide where to go and whether to come back or not.
She thought it would be better to just leave like this.
Her love for her son had disappeared completely amidst the doubts and quarrels in her previous life.
All that was left was hatred. Hate his shortsightedness, hate his distrust, hate that he was so cold-blooded and ruthless like his father.
***
June 22nd is the day when the results of the national college entrance examination will be announced.
Early in the morning, Ling Siyan saw the news pushed on her mobile phone that "the top three college entrance examination candidates in J Province are all from J City."
Ling Siyan clicked on it casually and took a look.
The provincial top scorer was a girl named Lin Zhenzhen from a high school in J City, who scored 689 points.
Ling Siyan stared at the name "Lin Zhenzhen" for a while. For some reason, this name always gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy.
But in her memory, they had no intersection.
After thinking for a while but couldn't come up with any result, Ling Siyan simply stopped thinking about it.
Looking down, the second place is Han Chengyu from J City Huaying High School, who scored 683 points.
The third place is also from J City No. 1 High School, named Gao Fan, with 670 points.
Ling Siyan turned off her phone, and Ling Yi and Lu Xiao were coming down from upstairs.
"Did you bring your ID card and admission ticket? And stationery, 2B pencil refills, erasers, etc., right?" Ling Siyan asked.
Yes, today is the day of J City’s high school entrance examination.
Lu Xiao was a little amused, "You have reminded me at least eight times in the past few days. You don't act like a boss at all, but more like a mother."
Ling Siyan glared at him: "Who are you talking about, old lady?"
Lu Xiao quickly changed his words: "I'm talking about myself. I'm like an old mother." He patted the schoolbag on Ling Yi's back and said, "Don't worry, I checked it with him and brought everything he should bring."
Ling Siyan rolled her eyes at Lu Xiao. She finally understood that this man looked serious and taciturn, but in fact he was a black-hearted person.
Shaking the car keys, Ling Siyan took the lead and walked in front: "Follow."
When they got outside the examination room, Ling Siyan patted Ling Yi on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead! Keep a calm mind and take the exam well. Don't be nervous."
Ling Yi nodded: "Yes, I know. You guys go back! No need to wait for me outside."
"Yeah." Ling Siyan responded readily: "After watching you go in, we'll go back."
The two-day exam passed quickly. Two days later, Ling Siyan picked up Ling Yi outside the examination room. After returning home, she started packing and prepared to leave J City.
The old father had urged him several times on the phone, saying that if he didn't go back, he would kill himself.
When I got home, Aunt Li was making lunch.
After dinner, Lu Xiao and his son went to pack up, and Ling Siyan called Aunt Li over.
"Aunt Li, you know, we are going back to City A. We will never go back to City J again. Do you want to stay in City J or go back to City A with us?" Ling Siyan was sitting on the sofa peeling an orange, her lowered eyes full of complexity.
In her previous life, the people closest to her besides Han Chengyu were Aunt Li.
Especially after Han Chengyu had a falling out with her because of Su Ranran, she and Aunt Li could be said to have been dependent on each other in this empty villa.
Her relationship with Han Chengyu had reached a freezing point before her death, but Aunt Li was someone she regarded as family until the end of her previous life.
But in her previous life, Aunt Li also betrayed her.
After her rebirth, she could have fired her immediately and removed this hidden danger from her side. She could have even taken revenge on her to vent her hatred that she had nowhere to vent.
But looking at the loving look in Aunt Li's eyes when she looked at her, she hesitated.
She could see that Aunt Li still had no ill intentions towards her at this time.
So she kept her and wanted to give her another chance.
She wanted to see how Aunt Li would choose this time between her and her son whom she hadn't seen for more than ten years.
If Aunt Li made the same choice as in her previous life, then she would have no psychological burden when she took revenge.
"Over the years, I have treated you like a family member, Aunt Li. If you stay in J City, I can leave this house to you. Aunt Li, you have worked hard all your life, and now it's time for you to have a good rest. This is also a good place to live in old age."
Ling Siyan pinched a slice of orange and put it into her mouth. "If you leave with us, I promise that you will have a place in the Ling family in City A. No matter what, I respect your choice."
Aunt Li's eyes were red when she heard Ling Siyan say that she treated her like a family member. After hearing her words, she said without thinking: "Madam, you all left, what am I going to do alone? I will go to City A with you. I am not yet 50 years old, and I can still work for at least ten years."
Ling Siyan finally looked up and looked directly into Aunt Li's eyes: "Aunt Li, have you thought it through?"
Aunt Li said affirmatively, "I've made up my mind, ma'am."
"Okay. Then go pack your things too!"
Ling Siyan looked at Aunt Li's back with a deep gaze and it was difficult to tell the emotion.
Aunt Li passed this first test.
If she chooses to stay, Ling Siyan will leave the house to her.
But it can be predicted that even if she does not take action, Aunt Li's later years will not be too easy...
