The next day, early morning.
Song Sichen came to Shi's house.
Shi Ran was in a good mood because she saw her uncle being humiliated yesterday, so the party ended a little late in the evening and she hasn't gotten up yet.
When she learned that Song Sichen had come to Shi's house early in the morning, she sat up, changed her clothes, and simply washed her face. Before she could wake up her sleeping body, she went downstairs yawning.
At the stairs, I felt a glaring light. The sunlight shone through the window onto the stairs, which was a bit dazzling.
She closed her eyes and looked up, wanting to feel the warm light, but she couldn't help but yawn at an inopportune time.
Sleepy!
I’m really sleepy!
Song Sichen raised his eyebrows, stood downstairs, and watched Shi Ran walk down.
He still had that expressionless face, but seemed troubled.
I was wondering, what was the first sentence?
Where to start the conversation?
How will Shi Ran react?
No, should I pretend I don't know her secret? Is that what I want?
These hesitations filled Song Sichen's mind.
Although his face was expressionless, it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
"Hello, Song Sichen."
When he was in distress, Shi Ran had already come to him and greeted him warmly.
Maybe it was because she was too sleepy and yawning, but tears could be seen in the corners of her eyes.
"Good morning, Shiran."
Song Sichen clenched his hands tightly and restrained himself from raising his hands to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Um."
A lazy voice.
She sat down on the sofa in the living room, but after just a few steps, she started yawning uncontrollably, unable to hold it back.
"Did the party end very late yesterday?"
Song Sichen asked.
"Yeah." Shi Ran sat on the sofa, closed his eyes, nodded, and then held up two fingers. "The party didn't end until twelve o'clock, and I didn't go to bed until after two in the morning."
Song Sichen put the cake in his hand on the table.
Shi Ran first turned a blind eye and watched Song Sichen's actions, then rubbed his eyes, leaned back on the sofa, stretched, and said to him with a smile: "Are you here to deliver the cake today too?"
"I have something I want to tell you."
"Um."
Shi Ran responded.
Song Sichen remained silent.
The words Fu Chong said flashed through his mind.
"The day the building was sold was because the previous owner was returning to his hometown. It was the last building to be sold, so I remember it quite clearly. The teacher was indeed there when the payment was made for this building, but he was accompanied by a child."
"Child?"
"Little girl."
“…”
"A teenage girl. Speaking of which, even the previous owner found it a bit strange because all the money was paid by that little girl. To be precise, the teacher became the owner of this building without taking a penny."
"Any characteristics?"
"Nothing, just a cute little girl, just like any other person." Fu Chong suddenly felt something was wrong and explained, "Rather, she looks like a rich person. She exudes wealth from head to toe."
Song Sichen recalled what Fu Chong had said, slowly raised his eyes and looked at Shi Ran.
"Shi Ran."
"Um."
“…”
Song Sichen didn't know what he was hesitating about, and he never said his purpose.
"Is it difficult to talk about this?" Shi Ran smiled slightly and shook his head a few times. "Sit down first. If you have anything to say, sit down and talk."
Song Sichen sat opposite Shi Ran.
Then, Shi Ran filled the teacup in front of Song Sichen with tea.
"You came to the Shi family so early in the morning. You must have something very important to ask me. Well, go ahead and ask me. I will definitely tell you the truth. It's not difficult to ask. I will answer whatever you ask."
Shi Ran spoke calmly, as if she knew Song Sichen would come and knew what he wanted to ask.
Song Sichen remained silent for a while after hearing Shi Ran's words.
He just stared at Shi Ran without blinking.
Because it feels like Shi Ran is particularly strange today.
There was no change in his appearance, but Song Sichen felt like he was looking at a stranger.
for a long time.
Song Sichen slowly opened his lips and asked in a low voice.
"Shi Ran, are you the real master behind the teacher?"
When asked by Song Sichen, Shi Ran did not feel surprised, but instead a smile appeared on her face.
"Yes," she answered readily. "Yes, it's me. I'm the actual owner behind the boss."
"From the beginning?"
"Well, from the beginning."
It seems like everything is decided by the teacher, but in fact it is her.
Whether it was the matter at the mine, the West City plan, or yesterday's banquet, all were her decisions.
Song Sichen closed his eyes, lowered his head, and pinched his eyebrows with his hands.
Feel the pounding heart and the tense muscles all over your body.
"It's you."
Song Sichen lowered his head, but after saying this, the corners of his mouth relaxed.
In fact, Shi Ran knew that Song Sichen would find out about this matter sooner or later, so when he appeared here early in the morning, Shi Ran had a premonition.
So she didn't feel surprised, so she answered whatever Song Sichen asked.
Shi Ran looked at Song Sichen, who had his head down and eyes closed, trying to see the expression on his face, but couldn't.
Do you feel betrayed?
Are you angry?
What is Song Sichen thinking now?
Will there be a quarrel because of this?
In order to achieve her goal of becoming the head of the Shi family, she became close to Song Sichen, who was the richest man in her previous life. She originally thought that Song Sichen was a very powerful person who would help her change the outcome of the Shi family's demise.
After finding out that she had concealed it from him, would she still be the same as before?
Song Sichen finally looked up.
Although his face was expressionless, fortunately he was not angry.
Song Sichen asked Shi Ran: "Do you know my secret?"
This was a question that Shi Ran had not expected.
Both of them have to tell their secrets.
Is this fair?
"Yeah." Shi Ran nodded, blinked, looked at Song Sichen, and said, "Mo's Group, I know, the person behind the Mo's Group is you, just like me and my teacher. That person is called Mo Zichen, right? The nominal chairman of the Mo's Group, but in reality, the person in control is you, Song Sichen."
"So you know."
"I have to say, Song Sichen, you're truly amazing." Shi Ran was reborn with the script in hand, but Song Sichen, on the other hand, possessed a foresight that Shi Ran admired, both in this life and in the past. "He has the same ideas as me, and he's snatched away a lot of my projects."
What an amazing guy.
If they become opponents, there is no guarantee that Shi Ran can defeat him.
"Aren't you angry?"
When Shi Ran heard Song Sichen ask this, she laughed.
"We are fair!"
Song Sichen concealed the fact that he had become the actual controller of the Mo Group, and the same went for Shi Ran, who was the person behind his teacher.
Shi Ran stared at Song Sichen's expressionless face and pinched her fingers with her nails.
After a while, Song Sichen whispered, "Shi Ran, what is your purpose?"
