Chapter 520 Who to compromise with?
"I later learned that, at that time, she had already learned about my status in the Shao family through my brother's diligent education, and how the Shao family would hinder the employment of an illegitimate child like me after graduation."
"Under his popular science and predictions, I will definitely achieve nothing in the future and live a mediocre life."
"So in the end, it wasn't me who didn't have confidence in myself, it was her who didn't have confidence in me."
"At the same time, the glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry finally became a drug that she became addicted to."

It was a routine call.
After the routine conversation, the woman did not hang up the phone. Instead, she was silent for a while and asked him,
"I heard your father is sick? Don't you want to go see him?"
Shao Yi paused and asked calmly,
"Who told you that?"
"...Don't worry about who told me this! Just tell me whether you're going to see him or not."
"Why should I go see him?"
Shao Yi's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Let alone being sick, even if he died, what does it have to do with me?"
"Why doesn't it matter? As long as he still thinks you are his son, you will definitely have a share of the Shao family's wealth!"
“…”
After a long silence, Shao Yi slowly said,
"Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy," the voice on the other end suddenly calmed down.
"I just woke up. I know what I need now."
"The so-called love of one person against the whole world is completely worthless bullshit. What I need now are resources, fame, and a strong backing that can help me reach the top."
"I hope all these things can be given to me by my boyfriend."
At the end, the voice on the other end even had a hint of pleading.
"Shao Yi, I don't want to fight the whole world for you anymore. Can't you just compromise with the Shao family?"
compromise?
The young man was holding the phone at the school gate on a hot day, and he almost wanted to laugh.
What compromise? You're asking me to compromise with something, do you really know?
Compromise with the father who turned my mother crazy and made me a bastard?
Compromise with the stepmother who has spit at me for more than ten years and locked me in the servants' room?
Should I compromise with that brother who made me crawl under his crotch and treated beating me as a common occurrence?
Should I compromise with them for the sake of my once beautiful mother who has been driven crazy and lives in a slum without seeing the sun, drinking and smoking every day?
You don't want me to compromise, you want me to die.
But I don’t want to break up yet, I still want to keep you.
Because I think I still love you.
During these difficult years, you have given me great courage and warmth.
I once thought I would love you forever.
The young man thought so, then pursed his lips, and the frost on his face disappeared, and said in an almost gentle voice,
"Everything will be there. You have to believe me. It won't take too long. Even without the help of the Shao family, I will deliver these things to you and make you the most dazzling star."
As soon as the words came out, the other side fell into silence.
After a moment, the woman replied gently,
"I understand. I'll wait for you."
·
"She lied."
Shen Pianpian said with certainty.
Yan Yi smiled slightly.
"You know again?"
"To be able to say something like that means she can't wait any longer."
An unknown amount of time had passed, and Shen Pianpian's voice became weaker and more blurred due to her increasingly low body temperature.
Yan Yi tightened his hands and said in a calm voice,
"You guessed it right, she really can't wait."
