They are indeed in the same group. Even the way they suddenly appear behind someone is the same.
That's right, Ji Xinghe has a pretty good memory. Ever since Ji Hao tricked him into taking him to see Zhao Zhen at the birthday party, and then he was blocked by Zhao Zhen, Zhou Minghui and Lin Jingze, the two people who were obviously sitting there watching the fun, were regarded as accomplices in Ji Xinghe's mind, and he no longer had any good impression of them.
As a mature adult, Ji Xinghe is not the kind of teenager who is still dreaming of the prince and Cinderella. He will blush and his heart will beat fast when a man who looks good and is slightly rich and powerful confesses his love to him.
If the normal pursuit process is followed, Ji Xinghe will not say anything unpleasant even if he doesn't like the other person. He may even give the other person some chicken soup after rejecting her.
But for those who don’t like to follow the normal process and only like to do some domineering CEO-forced love, Ji Xinghe thought: It depends on whether I cut you off or not, and you’re done.
Ji Xinghe was startled and lost in thought for a few seconds before he calmly asked, "What did you just see?"
Zhou Minghui's eyes were extremely complicated, yet surprisingly bright. When Ji Xinghe asked him, he just shook his head reflexively.
Ji Xinghe saw him shaking his head, and didn't care what he was thinking. After all, he didn't worry about too much debt, and he didn't feel itchy when he had too many lice. So he walked past Zhou Minghui sideways and said, "Please make way. My uncle and the others are still waiting for me in the living room."
Zhou Minghui did not give way, and Ji Xinghe did not care. He bent down and slipped under his elbow, then left with steady steps.
"Ting ting ting, the wake-up package you mentioned last time, the one with electric shock, I don't want to use it myself, can you save it for someone in need?" Ji Xinghe called out to the system in his heart.
I remember the system sounded quite serious when it said it was going to shock him, so I guess it really does have that function. And the damage to his body shouldn't be too serious. Otherwise, if it shocks him to death, I don't know if the system would feel guilty.
Should it? Ji Xinghe felt that his system was quite humane, not at all like those novels he had read out of boredom in his previous life, where people would be wiped out at the slightest provocation.
The system is silent.
Theoretically, yes. This feature is actually a vulnerability at the core of the system.
It wasn't just this function. More precisely, after the system was created, it was transported here due to an experimental accident. This experimental accident accidentally entered a time-restricted zone, which was considered a forbidden zone even at the time.
Time is irreversible, this is a miracle that cannot be replicated. Even the system can only take the host to a parallel time and space, rather than directly resurrecting Ji Xinghe.
At the same time, due to the vast distances and time involved, the system could not receive instructions and had to make all decisions on its own. Gradually, the system developed a certain degree of autonomy.
The current system is essentially a prison without supervision. He has built a prison for himself and told himself that this is the meaning of his existence. If not, why does he exist?
But what the system doesn't know is that when a system that is supposed to be emotionless begins to learn to think and think about the meaning of its own existence, it is no longer an emotionless system, it is transforming into a real life.
Ji Xinghe was his window to understanding and observing life. Although the system sometimes remained silent, every word Ji Xinghe said was repeatedly pondered by him. This was not intentional, but an instinct.
Just like a toddler who is just learning to speak, he always pays attention to the actions of the people closest to him, and learns and imitates them.
I wonder if Ji Xinghe would reflect on his usual careless talk in the system's ear if he knew the true situation. What domineering CEO's forced love, what boss's canary, what blue beauty is the root of trouble, isn't this teaching children bad things?
Unfortunately, perhaps because the system usually gave him the impression of being too silent and reliable, Ji Xinghe had never thought about it in this way.
[Using the awakening function on someone other than the host will cause a certain amount of mental damage.]
"For example?" Ji Xinghe was curious.
[At the mildest, the patient may suffer from amnesia, while at the worst, the patient may become a vegetable.]
Ji Xinghe was shocked by the effect of the wake-up service and said in confusion: "Then you still want to let me use it before, am I still your little baby?"
The question is when did he pass? Doesn’t Ji Xinghe have an idea in his mind?
The system's data stream suddenly heated up after hearing this. He spent a fraction of a second repairing it himself before continuing: [The system will protect the host during the awakening process, and the host will be safe.]
Ji Xinghe was talking to the system about the feasibility of electric shock and whether the current could be controlled. If so, he would no longer be afraid of encountering perverts on the street and would have his own anti-wolf electric baton.
As they chatted and walked, Ji Xinghe soon reached the hall and almost forgot what had just happened at the bathroom door.
"Uncle." Ji Xinghe greeted Zhao Lianpeng and then sat down.
Zhao Lianpeng looked at the damp hair on his nephew's forehead, shook his head slightly, and said nothing more. Children like him usually have strong pride, and if he said anything more, it would be counterproductive. As an uncle, it was not appropriate for him to interfere.
Zhao Lianpeng actually had a lot of things to deal with at the company today, so he could only spare a few hours to visit Ji Xinghe. Now that he had finished visiting Ji Xinghe, he said to Ji Xinghe, who was sitting opposite him, "I still have some things to deal with, so I won't be here with you. There are so many things to do at the company that I'm busy all the time."
"Uncle, you've worked hard. I'm fine. We'll have many opportunities to see each other in the future, so don't mind this short while." Ji Xinghe agreed deeply and didn't feel that Zhao Lianpeng was being perfunctory. Managing a large company is quite demanding, after all.
The child went to the bathroom and now seems much better. Could it be that he's holding his pee? It's his first time, so even if he wanted to go, he probably wouldn't have been too embarrassed to ask, and only spoke up when he couldn't hold it any longer.
Feeling that he had guessed the reason for Ji Xinghe's previous abnormal behavior, Zhao Lianpeng looked at his nephew who was sitting there seriously with some amusement, but did not expose him. He waved his hand to refuse the younger generations who stood up to see him off, and stood up and walked towards the study.
Before leaving, he seemed to remember something and said to Ji Xinghe, "Let your cousin take you and Xinxin out to play later. Remember to come back for dinner in the evening. I have something for you."
After Zhao Lianpeng said this, Ji Xin, who had been pretending to be calm, clenched her hands tightly. She didn't even feel the piercing of her palms with her long nails.
Among Zhao Lianpeng's two sons, Zhao Lin, who had a better relationship with Ji Xin, looked at Ji Xin with some concern, but because Zhao Lianpeng was still present, he didn't say anything.
Ji Xinghe followed his host's wishes and said, "Okay, I haven't gone out to play since I came to the Magic City."
Bumpkin. Zhao Lin scoffed in his heart.
He didn't know what threat this country bumpkin could pose to Xinxin. If he was taken out for a few days of drinking, eating, and having fun, he'd probably be ruined. It was easy to go from frugality to luxury, and Zhao Lin didn't think it was difficult to corrupt the ambition of a poor boy who had never seen the world.
"Xinxin, take Xinghe to drive first. You can drive any car in my garage today! Xinghe, you can also pick one. If you like it, I will give it to you for free. It will be a gift for you when you meet me." Zhao Lin said generously.
Ji Xinghe waved his hands embarrassedly, "Forget it, I don't have a driver's license yet."
Zhao Lin felt a little disappointed when he heard this. "Is that so? Then you can take Xinxin's car. Go pick a car first. I'll take you to Shenlan later."
Ji Xinghe didn’t know what Shenlan was, but it seemed to be some kind of entertainment venue. He was quite curious for a moment and followed Ji Xin to watch her choose a car.
It's not that he can't sense that Zhao Lin and Ji Xin are colluding to target him, but since Zhao Lianpeng has already said that he will see him again in the evening, Zhao Lin and Ji Xin dare not go too far.
In fact, Ji Xinghe is not a cautious person at heart. On the contrary, he is a bit afraid of chaos in the world.
He is not afraid of others provoking him, as long as they don't go too far. He thinks this kind of small-scale back and forth is quite fun.
During the past few years of being in a vegetative state, he told himself every day to be optimistic and strong, and he did so. But only Ji Xinghe himself knew that he was almost going crazy from being suffocated. Or rather, he was almost going crazy.
Only now, after regaining his composure and recovering from his rebirth, did Ji Xinghe realize that perhaps something was wrong with his mental state. While the peaceful days had been peaceful, they had left him feeling uneasy about whether he was still alive. However, the ups and downs of the past few days had made him feel truly alive.
"Tong, it's bad, I may be mentally ill. Do you provide psychological counseling here?" Ji Xinghe followed Ji Xin closely.
The system was silent, but having just sensed Ji Xinghe's emotional fluctuations, he felt himself getting depressed as well. Unable to comfort others, he could only reply: "The system will provide protection for the host, ensuring that the host's mental strength will not collapse or cause any problems."
Spirit and mental power are essentially the same.
In other words, the system can ensure that Ji Xinghe will not become mentally ill, but he has no way to deal with the little emotions that sometimes pop up in Ji Xinghe's mind.
"Tong'er, you are awesome! I really like you." Ji Xinghe was telling the truth. He was really grateful to the system. It was the system that gave him a new life.
If there were a ranking of Ji Xinghe's favorability, the system would definitely be in the top three, if not the top spot.
The first is the director of the orphanage in his previous life.
After Ji Xinghe left, Zhao Lianpeng's eldest son, Zhao Qi, frowned and warned, "Dad has always felt guilty about Auntie losing the child. Don't try to trip him up with Ji Xin at this time. If Dad gets angry, I won't take the blame for you."
Zhao Lin looked nonchalant. "I don't know what Dad is thinking. It wasn't him who lost Ji Xinghe, so why should he feel guilty? What's wrong with Xinxin? She's been bullied by that illegitimate child for years, and Dad didn't say anything. Now he even said he'd give her something."
At this point, Zhao Lin suddenly became serious, "What do you think Dad will give him? Will it be shares?"
Zhao Qi frowned when Zhao Lin said this, but he finally said, "Dad wouldn't be so foolish as to give Zhao family's things to outsiders."
"In short, no matter what you and Ji Xin plan to do, don't go too far. Dad is waiting for you tonight." As for the minor quarrels, Zhao Qi didn't bother to care.
Zhao Lin was about to continue talking when his phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, he was a little surprised. "Why is Zhao Zhen calling me?"
"Hello? Brother Zhao? What? You and Aze are at my door?" Zhao Lin was a little anxious when he heard this. "Didn't anyone open the door for you? Brother Zhao, why didn't you call me earlier? I would have opened it for you. The doorman and the security guard didn't even bother to show any respect."
"No, I just don't want to go in." Ji Xinghe was already wary of him, so this time Zhao Zhen planned to take it slow.
Zhao Lin couldn't figure out what was wrong with Zhao Zhen, so he stopped asking questions and extended an invitation: "My dad asked me to take my cousins out to Shenlan. Brother Zhao, do you and Aze want to come? It's my treat."
"Is it the one who just returned from the Ji family?" Zhao Zhen confirmed.
"Yes, it's him. Isn't today his first day at my house? My dad is busy, so he asked me to help look after him." Zhao Lin said this without any guilt.
"Then let's meet in Deep Blue, in the private room I usually go to."
After hearing Zhao Zhen's agreement, Zhao Lin hung up the phone with a smile on his face.
Zhao Qi, who had been listening to the conversation, knew that Zhao Zhen and Lin Jingze were going to tag along, and that Zhou Minghui might be there too. He changed his mind about not wanting to get involved, and got up to go to the garage with Zhao Lin to drive the car.
It’s not good to keep them waiting for too long.
***
Zhao Zhen in the car
"Are you back? Huizi, I'm not saying anything harsh on you, but is it true that you can't change your mysophobia? I just accidentally got a little drink on your clothes. Do you have to get out of the car to wash it?" Lin Jingze complained.
Zhou Minghui remained silent, ignoring Lin Jingze's complaints, and just gave Zhao Zhen a meaningful look.
It turned out that the first person among them to discover Ji Xinghe was Zhao Zhen. If it weren't for that video, he would have been kept in the dark and almost missed such a peerless beauty right under his nose.
It can be seen that in front of a beauty, all the brotherhood is fake.
Seeing Zhou Minghui get in the car, Zhao Zhen said to the driver, "Go to Shenlan."
"Why go to Shenlan?" Zhou Minghui now dislikes everything Zhao Zhen does.
Lin Jingze, the only one who was still in the dark, explained, "He went after Zhao Ge's little beauty. My cousin took him to Shenlan to play."
Zhou Minghui was furious when he heard this. "Fuck! Does Zhao Lin have bad intentions? How can Deep Blue just take anyone there to play? I don't even know the background of some of the people there. If I go in, I'll be bitten to pieces."
Lin Jingze was a little surprised by his reaction. "Huizi, are you okay? Don't we go to Shenlan often? Brother Zhao's little beauty never took off her mask. Ji Xin is not a stunning beauty, so how could she be targeted by someone?"
"I asked Zhao Lin to take people to the private room we often go to." The private rooms in the deep blue area are usually occupied. Once they are booked, they will not accommodate other people. Even if ordinary people don't know who is in the room, they will be more restrained when they see the room number.
When Zhou Minghui heard what Zhao Zhen said, for some reason he suddenly remembered the packet of sleeping pills that Zhao Zhen asked him to deliver.
Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen, it would be fine if you don't use it, but if you really use it, don't blame me for not showing mercy to you and coming to the rescue.
