Chapter 115 (Exclusive)

"We are not married, we just live together." Shen Wan pulled her daughter to sit down on the bed and spoke.

Shen Baili held her mother's hand tightly, her little finger trembling slightly: "Mom, is it because of me?"

Because of me, I accepted Xie Chengyue's pursuit.

Because of me, I was able to enter the Xie family in this way.

It's because of me that I have to work so hard.

Because of me, I endure the hardships of life and give up my freedom.

…

Heartache and guilt were like a tsunami, drowning Shen Baili. She had difficulty breathing and held her mother's hand tightly, refusing to let go.

"No, Sui Sui." Shen Wan said firmly, "This is my choice."

"Because of you, Mom is very happy."

"Mom wants to be happier with Sui Sui, so she agreed to bring you and live with Uncle Xie."

Shen Wan looked into her daughter's eyes. It was as if a spring had taken up residence in those almond-shaped pupils, and they were very warm.

Shen Baili looked into her mother's eyes. She was her mother's spring.

"I love two people the most in this world." Shen Wan hugged her daughter and said softly, "Myself and Sui Sui."

Shen Baili said without hesitation: "I also love my mother and myself the most."

Shen Wan corrected: "You should love yourself the most, and then love your mother."

Shen Wan once loved Su Bowen more than herself. It took her a long time to find herself again. Her experience once made her obsessed with loving and being loved.

She would always give herself preference and hoped that her daughter would do the same.

Shen Baili: "Mom, you have to love yourself first, then love me."

"Do you like him?"

She didn't say it explicitly, but both mother and daughter knew that he was referring to Xie Chengyue.

"Yes, I will. I won't be with someone I don't like." Shen Wan said directly.

"My mother went through a miserable marriage, and I no longer believe in marriage."

Shen Wan hesitated: "I still believe in love."

"Sui Sui, you made me believe in love."

“Sometimes I think that God made me go through so many difficulties just to let me meet you.”

"Mom hopes you will always be happy and safe every year."

Shen Baili curled up in her mother's arms like a baby: "Mom, I love you."

Me too.

All the sufferings in the previous life were just for meeting my mother.

"I'm so happy."

Shen Wan gently kissed her daughter's forehead and cherished her.

She continued, "I love Sui Sui, and he loves his children in the same way."

Does Xie Chengyue love Shen Wan?

The answer is yes, he loves Shen Wan, and he also loves Xie Zhiyu and Xie Tingsi.

Xie Chengyue could give his share to Shen Wan, but he would not give up the interests of the two children.

This agreement is the best outcome.

Shen Wan opened up and told Shen Baili all this because she didn't want her to have any grudges: "We are a family, and this won't change because of an agreement or a marriage certificate."

“There are limits to what they can guarantee.”

Shen Baili: "We are a loving family!"

"But I love you most."

…

The episode about the marriage certificate was quickly resolved, which actually explained the main reason why "Shen Baili" frequently engaged in promiscuous behavior in the later part of the original novel.

Ah Deng: "Congratulations to Sui Sui for finding the hidden plot."

She changed the subject: "But there is no reward!"

Shen Baili: “…”

The next night after the conversation, Shen Baili fell ill.

She had a low fever for two days and felt weak and drowsy.

Shen Wan was very worried and stayed by her side the whole time, even sleeping with her at night.

Shen Baili woke up in the middle of the night and hugged her mother out of habit.

Shen Wan was in a light sleep and happened to wake up. He touched her forehead and hugged her again.

Mother's arms are the safest place in the world. Shen Baili was drowsy and about to fall asleep again when she heard her mother's whisper.

Gently, softly, and warmly.

"Sui Sui, please become a baby again, and mom will raise you again."

She said, "Okay."

“I want to be my little baby forever.”

****

College life is different from what I imagined.

Shen Baili did not participate in any elections, but she was still very busy. Her freshman schedule was basically full, with group assignments, PPT presentations, flip classrooms, etc. There were also various extracurricular activities, such as drama club, celebrity lecture hall, reading salon, hip-hop club, symphony orchestra...

The students are all excellent. Not only do they have strong learning abilities, but they are also good at relieving stress from their busy study lives.

Shen Baili absorbs knowledge like a sponge, and will also let go to play and enjoy the present moment.

Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Shen Baili's college life was very exciting. She won a special scholarship with the first place in comprehensive performance (first place in both professional performance and comprehensive test scores). She used the scholarship to buy a gold bracelet for her mother, and the inside of the bracelet was also engraved with "Peace every year."

Mom hopes that every year she will be safe, and every year she will hope that her mother will be safe and happy.

Shen Baili also participated in various extracurricular activities. She won first place in the 800-meter race at the sports meet, participated in the school orchestra's performances, hosted various evening parties at the school, and was awarded the title of the Hall of Fame...

There is also her and her mother's Sui Sui Studio. Once the "Empress Training Plan" was launched, it became an instant hit, and the number of downloads has remained in the top five game rankings.

Shen Huang, the only protagonist in the Empress Training Plan, has surpassed many popular characters to become the top star of the year, which shows how popular she is.

Jiang Zhu and Bi Yan are both loyal fans of this game. Jiang Zhu is obsessed with the emotional line of the empress, while Bi Yan prefers the career line of the empress. The two often quarrel in the dormitory because of this.

Many people around Shen Baili were discussing the Empress. Occasionally, someone would bring up the classic lines from the novel, and a drama club had performed some of the famous scenes from the novel.

The popularity of the Empress Training Plan brought new development opportunities to Sui Sui Studio, and the listing plan was brought forward.

This year, Shen Baili's academic and career both flourished, but the system's total energy progress bar remained at 97% and did not move again.

Shen Baili guessed that it might be related to the crisis of the Xie family. She was patient and had been accumulating strength.

After the final exams, they welcomed the holiday.

Shen Baili had a party with her high school classmates. Teacher Deng Qin and little girl Deng Mianmian were both there. Everyone was talking and arguing, and talking about their lives.

"I almost starved to death in Country M!!!" Ji Qi yelled, "White people's food tastes so bad!"

Students studying in Country E agreed: "So I learned to cook for myself."

Ji Qi smiled tiredly: "It was my first time cooking and three fire trucks came and fined me a lot of money."

"The second time I cooked, I got food poisoning and went to the hospital. It cost me a lot of money again..."

Lu Mingqian patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Meng Jiuan: "Why don't you hire a chef?"

Ji Qi laughed immediately: "Hehehe, how did you know that my parents hired an aunt to take care of me? The food she cooks is super delicious!"

A classmate: "If you keep saying that, I'm going to lose my defense."

"I envy Xiaojiu and Xiaoming for being classmates with Sui Sui! You can eat home-cooked food every day!!!"

"My defense is broken too!" Ji Qi shouted.

Shen Baili smiled and said, "Then eat more domestic delicacies before you go abroad this time."

"How are you going to spend your summer vacation?" Qiao Yi leaned close to Shen Baili: "Shall we go to the amusement park tomorrow?"

"I only have one month's vacation, and I want to spend every day with Sui Sui."

"Me too!" Zhu Zhitao forgot about Sang Fang and held Shen Baili's arm tightly.

Sang Fang: "Then let's go to City C to play with An An?"

Ji Qi raised his hand: "I can!"

"But I don't have time for these two. I have to go to my own company for internship."

Meng Jiuan took the initiative and said, "But I can go to the amusement park tomorrow!"

"I have time tomorrow." Lu Mingqian added: "One last blast before the internship."

"Great!" Zhu Zhitao cheered, "I really hope every day is a carnival!"

"The last time we went out together was last time!" Ji Qi touched his chin and said something nonsense.

"Listening to your words is like listening to a sentence." Meng Jiuan complained: "Two words to sum it up."

"Nonsense!" Lu Mingqian took over the topic tacitly.

"You guys are really mean." Ji Qi pouted: "I don't want to play with you."

Deng Mianmian signed up: "Sister Suishun, I want to go too."

"Sure!" Shen Baili agreed immediately.

Ruan Mian joined in: "Can I bring a friend with me?"

"Quan Yu?" Zhu Zhitao smiled wickedly: "You are not right, Jing'er."

Ruan Mian smiled and imitated her tone: "We are childhood sweethearts and it's quite fitting that we go out to play together."

"I'll set up a face-to-face group, count the number of people, and buy the tickets together." Shen Baili made the final decision.

…

The trip to the amusement park was thus confirmed. Quan Yu sent a message to Ruan Mian: "I will pick you up downstairs of your house tomorrow morning."

Ruan Mian: "Okay~see you then."

Quan Yu looked at the message, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and the coldness in his eyes was replaced by a smile.

“Ding Dong.”

The latest news popped up on his mobile phone page, with four large words written on it.

“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”

Quan Yu breathed a sigh of relief and the man agreed.

soon.

Soon he can return to his normal life and be with the girl he likes.

****

On the top floor of Xie’s Building, sunlight shines through the French windows and falls on the man standing in front of the window. His cold and handsome face is divided by light and shadow, one dark and one bright.

"Boss, why did you choose to cooperate with him?" Assistant Liu was puzzled: "Do you trust him?"

When Assistant Liu first received the news that an 18-year-old high school student was being investigated, he was shocked. When he received the feedback on the results, he was even more shocked!

Xie Zhiyu: "We have the same goal."

He doesn't trust Quan Yu, but he trusts Sui Sui.

*****

Shen Baili came back from City C and received a series of life-threatening calls from her senior schoolmate.

"Bai Li, urgent, urgent! Help!!"

"Do you have time? Can you do me a favor?"

"That mystery reality show I told you about before!!"

"The originally scheduled female guest suddenly canceled her contract and went to participate in the love variety show next door. Our show will officially start recording in three days, and I can't find her. I'm going to be fired QAQ..."
