Tao Yuche quickly drew the item before his eyes. "Hmm, a recovery agent, for the elderly with declining physical function..."
Tao Yuche looked at the quote of 12 skill points + technology tax 3 skill points.
It seemed that this potion was not much beyond their current technological level. A total of 15 technology points was still easy for him to make. So he looked at 008 and said, "Please keep an eye on it for me. I have enough skill points. You can buy it for me."
008 put his feet together and stood at attention, then raised his hands to his ears and said happily in a baby voice, "Okay, Cheche."
La la la! La la la! Today is a good day~ His commission is coming. One bottle of recovery potion can give him a commission of 6 skill points. The main system master is really generous.
————————
Today is the day for the college entrance examination, and Tao Yuche finished filming a week ago. This week, Tao Yuche almost wakes up to endless papers to do and questions to memorize.
I finally don’t have to do exercises or memorize words today, but I have to take the college entrance examination.
The word "college entrance examination" was very unfamiliar to Tao Yuche. This was his first time to take the college entrance examination, so Tao Yuche was so nervous that he was sweating while holding Ji Yanli's hand.
Since Tao Yuche was arranged by Ji Yanli to be enrolled in a private high school, he had never attended a class, let alone met any classmates. Now there were so many people around and he didn't dare to get off the bus for fear of causing a disturbance.
So I could only stare at Ji Yanli in the car.
Ji Yanli found Tao Yuche's restlessness somewhat amusing, so he patted Tao Yuche's head and said, "Don't worry, I asked your tutor, and they said that your academic performance will be absolutely fine. Just go and take the exam."
Tao Yuche gradually calmed down under Ji Yanli's comfort, and at this moment Tao Yuche's phone rang.
Seeing that it was Cao's mother who called, Tao Yuche's eyes were filled with smiles. Now, among all the people in the Cao family, only Cao's mother could make Tao Yuche feel sincerity and warmth.
After answering the phone, Cao's mother's gentle voice rang out: "Xiao Che, is it time to enter the examination room? Don't be nervous, just take your time answering the questions."
Tao Yuche also smiled gently: "I know, Mom!"
Cao's mother: "You have to be careful with your meals these few days. You must eat at home. It will be bad if you get an upset stomach."
Cao's mother had been repeating these words in Tao Yuche's ear almost as soon as she knew that he was going to take the college entrance examination. Tao Yuche didn't feel impatient, but rather felt very warmed. So Tao Yuche smiled even more: "I've written it all down."
Cao's mother: "Why don't I go and accompany you? I'm always worried when you're not there."
Tao Yuche: "Really, there's no need. Brother Yan is here, and there are so many people here. Don't bother coming here. It's just a test."
On the other side, Cao Jianye heard the two people's meaningless conversation and said impatiently, "What nonsense! It's just an exam, isn't it? Xiaocheng and Xiaoli have all been through the same thing. Besides, he survived all those years in the orphanage without anyone to take care of him. Now he has so many servants in the Ji family to take care of him, how could he possibly have any problems?"
Perhaps afraid that Tao Yuche would be upset, Cao's mother deliberately held the phone further away and said, "What are you talking about? When Xiaocheng and Xiaoli were taking their exams, we were all waiting outside the school. Now we owe Xiaoche something."
Cao Jianye got a little irritable after hearing this: "I owe him, I owe him! I actually want to make it up to him, but do you think he treats us as his parents? He's only been home a few times since we came back. Not only did he not tell his family about his marriage, let alone arrange a meeting between both sets of parents, he didn't even visit Ji Yanli. If he wasn't raised by himself, then he's not close to us."
After hearing this, Cao's mother started to cry again. She couldn't suppress her anger and said, "Look at what you said. Do you act like a father? Xiao Che must be very sad to hear it."
"You're thinking about him introducing you to the Ji family. I want to ask you, he's been back for so long, can you arrange for him to meet the other members of the family?"
What Cao's mother didn't know was that Tao Yuche had excellent hearing due to his martial arts training, and he had heard everything the two of them said over the phone clearly. However, Tao Yuche was not as sad as he thought. After a brief contact, he had already figured out Cao Jianye's character. Cao Jianye was a very heartless person, who only cared about interests and could not accommodate anything else.
If Tao Yuche was sad because of his contempt, she would have cried to death long ago. However, the exam was about to start. Tao Yuche was too lazy to listen to their lawsuit, so she said softly: "Mom, the exam time is almost up, I'm going to hang up first!"
Cao's mother quickly wiped her tears and said, "Well, go ahead, don't be nervous."
After hanging up the phone, Tao Yuche opened the car door and walked towards the examination room under the escort of bodyguards.
Inevitably, photos were taken during this period and uploaded to the Internet, which naturally caused another wave of heated discussion. However, Tao Yuche didn't know it at the moment, as he was concentrating on struggling with the test paper.
After hanging up the phone, Cao's mother cried even louder: "Old Cao, we are the ones who have let Xiao Che down! Now that you are like this again, how can we let the child get close to us? Do you really want to wait until Xiao Che and us become separated before you regret it?"
Cao Jianye's irritability subsided at this point. He looked at the crying mother Cao and walked over to her, hugged her and said, "It's been so long, haven't you seen clearly? He never wanted to get close to us. He's different from Xiaoli."
"Look, he and Ji Yanli have such a good relationship. He didn't even help his family with that minor case a while ago. What harm would it do to him if his family was doing well?"
Upon hearing this, Mother Cao stood up and said, "This little Che has just married into the Ji family, and you haven't acknowledged his identity to the outside world. Now, in the eyes of outsiders, he is still an ordinary little celebrity. His life in the Ji family may not be as good as it seems. Not only do you not support him, but you even ask him to interfere in the affairs of the Ji family. Have you ever considered him?"
Cao Jianye's expression turned cold when he heard this and he said, "Don't even mention announcing it. If you announce it, wouldn't that make it clear that Xiaoli is a fake? This year is a critical period for my brother's promotion. What if my sister-in-law gets suspicious? All our years of hard work will be wasted."
After hearing this, Cao's mother stood up angrily and wanted to say something.
However, before Cao's mother could speak, Cao Jianye continued, "And with this announcement, Xiaoli's illegitimate status is confirmed. Can you bear it?"
When Cao's mother heard this, she instantly became like a deflated balloon, lying on the sofa and crying.
Cao's mother did feel guilty towards Tao Yuche and loved him very much, but she also loved Cao Li, whom she had raised for 20 years. Now that she had to be treated unfairly, she could only choose the one that was less hurt.
Cao's mother just hoped that Tao Yuche would not blame her. There was no other way. Not announcing it would only mean a lack of status for Tao Yuche. However, given Tao Yuche's current identity as Mr. Ji Yanli, the status was just icing on the cake.
But for Cao Li, announcing this would be tantamount to labeling him an illegitimate child, and Cao Li would also have to face the wrath of his sister-in-law's family, which might ruin Cao Li's life. Cao's mother did not dare to take the risk.
