"Thank you, but I don't have any use for it right now. I'm starting my own business and currently have Star Capital. Although it's only been established for three months, its net profit in one quarter has already exceeded 100 million."
Xiao Chen smiled as he spoke: "Of course, compared to the Sun Group, it's nothing, but it should be better than working for someone else."
The smile on Sun Yang's face turned awkward again, and he began to seriously examine Xiao Chen: "Not bad, starting a business in high school and beating all his peers."
"It's all luck." Xiao Chen said modestly.
Sun Yang couldn't hold it in any longer, so he picked up a glass of water and drank a sip in a disguised manner.
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming awkward, Song Ziyan took the menu and said, "Xiao Chen, this is the dish you like. I ordered it for you."
"Okay, thank you." Xiao Chen smiled slightly: "You like this one too, come on."
"Okay." Song Ziyan answered softly. The two of them took the menu and ordered food, and Sun Yang became an outsider.
Sun Yang felt very depressed during the meal, and left with an excuse after the meal.
But he also remembered Xiao Chen and decided to check Xiao Chen's background after returning.
After sending Song Ziyan home, Xiao Chen went to the Taoist temple overnight.
The master sat at the entrance of the Taoist temple, reading a copy of the Tao Te Ching by the light of a lamp.
"Are you here?" Seeing Xiao Chen, the master slowly raised his head and smiled.
"Master, that mark has appeared again." Xiao Chen rolled up his sleeves, revealing the bloody mark on his arm.
This mark appears every time after blood loss, as if it is a curse.
The master stared at Xiao Chen's arm, then took out a bowl of water. Like last time, he slowly drew a few strokes in the air, and finally picked up a little water and sprinkled it on Xiao Chen's arm.
The color of the mark suddenly faded, and Xiao Chen felt his body relax, and his spirits were much better than before.
"Too careless." The master shook his head slowly.
"This was an accident. If he wasn't injured, there would be no way to prove that the man was mentally ill." Xiao Chen smiled.
The master nodded gently: "It's fate, it's destiny. Her obsession is too strong, and it will eventually hurt others and herself."
"Since she's in a mental hospital, let her stay there."
"I will find a way to let her stay there forever, but... my life experience..." Xiao Chen's expression was complicated.
"When fate arrives, it will eventually happen; when it is not, do not force it." The master said leisurely, "No matter how good a person is at calculating and planning in this life, he will never be able to outsmart the arrangements of fate."
"Gains and losses are determined by fate, do you understand?"
"I understand, Master. Everything depends on fate and nature." Xiao Chen nodded.
Then he raised his arm, looked at the mark that had faded, and said with some confusion: "But Master, what is going on with this mark on my arm?"
"And it appears every time I get injured and lose blood. Every time it appears, I feel like I'm seriously ill. What on earth is this?"
"You can consider it a curse. It's already become part of your destiny, and it's not easy to completely exorcise it."
The master said gently: "If you want to get rid of it, no one else can help you. You can only rely on yourself."
"I understand." Xiao Chen nodded slightly. He looked at the mark on his arm and his expression became firm.
After Xiao Chen left, the Taoist priest slowly stood up.
He looked up at the night sky and saw the bright stars and the cool moon in the clear night sky.
"Are you finally going to show up?" the Taoist priest muttered to himself.
The next day, in a mental hospital.
Xiao Yan and Xiao Qian met with the attending physician and then silently paid the relevant fees.
"Can I...see her?" Xiao Qian asked.
"Okay." Wang Jiang nodded. "But she's emotionally unstable right now, and she may not recognize you."
"I just need to look at her." Xiao Qian couldn't help shedding tears.
Xiao Yan stood up and walked out without saying a word.
"Sister, where are you going? Don't you want to see mom?" Xiao Qian was surprised and stopped Xiao Yan.
"I don't want to see her." Xiao Yan shook her head.
"Why?" Xiao Qian was a little angry: "Why are you as cold and indifferent as Xiao Chen? When did you become like this?"
"Xiao Qian." Xiao Yan turned and looked at her: "You have no idea what happened to Xiao Chen, let alone what our mother did for his biological son."
"Her son's life is life. For her son, she can sacrifice everyone around her."
Xiao Yan's tone was a little excited, and even her hands were shaking slightly.
"There are some things you don't know, but I saw them. I... also know part of the truth, so I can't forgive her."
"Sister, what are you talking about? Can you explain it more clearly?" Xiao Qian was a little confused.
Xiao Yan turned her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "You go in and see her, this is all I can do, I'll wait for you outside."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left. Xiao Qian had no choice but to go see Xiao's mother alone.
Through the glass of a treatment room, she saw Xiao's mother.
I saw that her hands and feet were tied to the bed, and there were many electric current tubes attached to her body.
"This is electric current therapy. Because she's so emotionally agitated, the tranquilizer isn't very effective," Wang Jiang explained. "So we can only control her hands and feet."
"Two of our care workers have been bitten by her, and I'm afraid her condition will be out of control for a while."
"Mom..." Xiao Qian couldn't stop crying through the glass.
Xiao's mother in the room couldn't hear her voice at all. She just struggled and roared silently, looking like a wild beast.
