After getting out of the car, He Xiao practically sprinted back to the villa.
Shen Linyue smiled like an aunt the whole time, and only when he was about to disappear did she call out to remind him: "A tutor will be coming to the house tomorrow, so you can't be late."
He Xiao paused, turned around, and gritted his teeth: "You're here to tutor you, what do you want from me?"
Shen Linyue smiled slightly: "I want to get into Tsinghua University or Peking University. I don't want others to know that I have a nephew who couldn't even get into a junior college."
He Xiao felt insulted. "Who do you think you are? I can go abroad to get a prestigious degree even without taking an exam, and I can still get an internship at a big company when I come back."
"And another thing, do you know how difficult the exam papers in Taipei are? You're already fantasizing that if you could get into a top-tier university, I would gladly call you 'Auntie'."
Shen Linyue remained completely calm and said with a smile, "My dear son, even if I don't get into a top university, you'll still have to call me Auntie."
"And so what if you come back with a gilded resume? Are you going to work for someone else your whole life and wait for them to pay you a salary? Or are you going to wait until your father retires, and the He Group falls into someone else's hands, and you spend the rest of your life doing nothing but holding onto a few small shares and dividends?"
He Xiao: ...
Damn, how come this aunt has suddenly become so sharp-tongued?
But a hint of confusion quickly appeared on his face. He hadn't thought about what he wanted to do in the future, but he couldn't stand working for someone else and having to put up with their attitude.
only……
"Even if I don't work and just take the dividends from He's Group, it's enough for me to squander for the rest of my life, right?" Besides, after Old He passes away, all that inheritance will go to him, so why would he bother?
Shen Linyue gave him a disdainful look: "You're hopeless. Then just live your life in mediocrity."
Actually, she just wanted to provoke him a bit. In the original book, He Xiao at least started his own business and succeeded. His company wasn't as big as He's, but it was still an achievement.
Shen Linyue felt that he could focus on his studies now and go abroad to further his education, so his achievements would not be any worse than those in the original book.
Even without relying on the He family to fight the male lead, they can still put up a good fight and won't be killed by the male lead in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, He Xiao was unaware of these things. No matter how much she said, it was just advice; it all depended on what He Xiao herself thought.
The young girl pursed her lips, her face cold, and pushed past He Xiao, who was standing dumbfounded blocking the doorway, and went straight upstairs.
Belatedly realizing what was happening, He Xiao glanced at Shen Linyue's retreating figure and muttered to himself. Why was Linyue so concerned about his future than he, the person directly involved, was?
However, the feeling of being constantly thought of and cared for is not bad, is it?
He Xiao's expression softened, and he instructed the butler, "Bring over a dessert and some milk; I'll take it to Lin Yue."
The butler stood silently to the side, having long since become indifferent to the constant bickering between the two little darlings. But was this topic perhaps a bit too heavy?
I still need to tell the gentleman that the young master and young lady's mental state should also be taken into account.
"Yes, young master, the kitchen has already prepared it. I'll go get it for you."
...
After returning to her room and washing up, Shen Linyue turned on her computer and began searching for events related to the He family over the past few decades.
However, there is no trace of it online, only a few financial news articles about He's development and interviews with He's president.
Shen Linyue, troubled, rested her chin on her hand and, after thinking for a long time, tried searching for her own name.
Soon, the first thing that popped up on the homepage was a WeChat public account that reviewed the most beautiful campus beauties of Peking University back then... 3, Shen Linyue.
That was a few years ago, a long time ago.
Shen Linyue's heart skipped a beat when she saw her own name. Her hand was still trembling when she clicked on it. She didn't recognize the first two names, so she skipped directly to the third one.
It's a color student photo. The girl has her hair tied in a high ponytail, and she's smiling at the camera, showing off her perfect eight teeth. Her eyes seem to sparkle, and she looks radiant, pure, and beautiful.
They look exactly alike, except that she looks more mature and beautiful in the photo.
This isn't a photo she took; it's a picture of herself in the future. It turns out she hasn't changed much as she's grown up.
After staring at the person in the photo for a long time, Shen Linyue finally noticed the comments below.
First floor: I know this sister. She used to date the campus heartthrob from the finance department. It was so sweet!
Second floor: The legend of their love still lives on at Peking University. It is said that they got married right after graduating from university. It's so sweet!
Third floor: It's a pity that such beauty has such a short life...
Fourth floor: Oh, wasn't that news story debunked? They're living a good life abroad, so stop spreading rumors.
Fifth floor: My mom's friend's friend's daughter's classmate works at He's. I heard that none of them have ever seen this boss lady. Could she be divorced? There's not a single piece of news about her.
Sixth floor: As someone in the industry, I can only say that the third floor is right.
...
These comments were all from five or six years ago. Shen Linyue's heart pounded and her palms sweated as she read them. She felt as if she were surrounded by a huge mystery and conspiracy.
Was she able to travel back in time really only for the villain's son?
Shen Linyue stared blankly, then looked back at her own photo, even having the absurd thought of begging her future self for clues.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Shen Linyue snapped back to reality and realized that she had been staring at the photo for five or six minutes.
She composed herself, got up, and went to open the door.
The boy held a tray in one hand and looked at her leisurely.
"Not everyone can enjoy the service of this young master."
Shen Linyue raised an eyebrow, glanced at the cakes she liked on the tray, and said, "These were all prepared by Uncle Xiao, right? It's really kind of you, Young Master He, to bring them up."
He Xiao: "What's the difference? Wasn't it just a gift from me?"
"Young master, you've worked hard. Remember to do your homework. Don't forget the three test papers this week."
He Xiao: ...You heartless bastard, I should have known better than to send it.
He wanted to retort, but Shen Linyue took the cake and told him to leave: "Thank you, I need to rest now. Goodbye, goodnight."
He Xiao, who almost bumped into the door panel: ?!
Is Lin Yue acting a little strange tonight?
Could it be that Lin Yuezheng became depressed because she met someone she shouldn't have?
...
Lying back in bed that night, Shen Linyue was still searching everywhere for information about herself, but she couldn't find anything except what she had seen.
Soon, she fell asleep without even realizing it.
With her vision obscured by a hazy gray fog, Shen Linyue felt lightheaded and consciously realized that she seemed to be dreaming.
The gray fog quickly dissipated, and her vision went from blurry to clear. She suddenly found herself in a sparsely decorated and cold office.
She saw an acquaintance, He Liyu. He was sitting upright behind his desk, working on the pile of documents on it.
Shen Linyue's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to greet him, but when she opened her mouth, He Liyu acted as if he hadn't heard her at all, completely ignoring her.
As she was pondering what was going on, there was a knock on the office door, and an assistant walked in.
"Boss, these are Chen Wensheng's travel records and bank statements from the days before his death."
