What are your plans next?
Song Xia smiled and said, "Of course, we should give him a big gift!"
If Xie Yuan is ruthless, then don't blame her for being unjust. The good days that this family has schemed for are coming to an end.
"Liu Qian, please take good care of Lingling during this time."
After she finished speaking, she thought for a moment and said, "I think I'll enroll Lingling in a summer camp. You can take her away from City A first."
"I'll do whatever you say, Xiaxia. Don't worry, I'll make sure nothing happens to Lingling."
The more critical the moment, the more Song Xia feared that Xie Yuan would resort to desperate measures. Such a person would stop at nothing for money and was capable of anything.
"Then I'll go find Zhang Yuefang and Chi Jie first, so that the Xie family can't explain my divorce to them, and try to buy you some more time." Yu Ting was afraid that if the two families met again, they would connect the dots and suspect Song Xia. So she didn't say anything explicitly, and Xie Yuan didn't take drastic measures so quickly.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Seeing Xie Yuan get up and return through the surveillance footage, Song Xia beckoned the two of them to leave together. She didn't want to face Xie Yuan right now, so she went to the law firm to have Uncle Liang and Uncle Meng organize the evidence they had collected over the past few days with Attorney Zhang.
The more evidence they collected, the more alarmed the two elders became. They knew Xie Yuan was ambitious, but they never expected his ambition to be so great. They were also amazed that he and the finance department had managed to cover up these accounts so well.
“These people dared to work with him; embezzlement is a serious crime.”
"Firstly, Xie Yuan promised them huge benefits. Secondly, they also believed that Xie Yuan would not fail. After all, once I was completely out of the game, wouldn't everything be under Xie Yuan's control from now on? Who could possibly find out anything? Even if they questioned it, how could they possibly expose it?"
Song Xia said self-deprecatingly, "It's my love-struck brain that gave them confidence."
Old Meng said dryly, "Little Song, you were indeed too confused before, but fortunately you have come to your senses now. Whether you are a man or a woman, there are some things that you can only feel at ease if you hold them in your own hands."
"Thank you for your guidance, Uncle Meng. I will definitely prioritize my career in the future."
"You can't say that. Xiao Song has some ability, which is why he let go. For example, the key evidence of this financial fraud was all found by Xiao Song himself," Old Liang said tentatively. "Xiao Song, even your uncle couldn't do that. How did you do it? If Old Song knew, he could rest assured."
Song Xia smiled faintly: "After all, it's my own company, how could I not know that?"
The lack of a direct explanation served several purposes. First, it conveyed to Elder Liang and Elder Meng that although she had suffered a loss, her abilities remained, and anyone attempting to take advantage of her in the future would have to think twice. Second, it reassured them about future cooperation, as she was capable of generating even greater profits. Thirdly…
It's truly inexplicable. Can she say that a system is helping her?
Although she doesn't yet have any items in the points redemption shop, the system is a high-tech product, and the current computer system holds no secrets for it. Song Xia has taken advantage of this.
She didn't know at first; it was Zero System that revealed it to her while browsing the internet.
When Song Xia first learned of it, she was stunned for a long time. If she could just wander around the online world without leaving any trace, she would be invincible in modern times, right?
"The mainframe has stipulated that I can't directly collect evidence; I can only tell you the location and content. Moreover, this function of mine can only help you in the technological world," Zero System said bouncyly. "Xiaxia, your world is so interesting! How come there are so many... games and cartoons?"
Its exaggerated gestures amused Song Xia: "I'm glad you like it, but you can't get too addicted to it. Like Lingling, I limit her to one hour of TV a day."
"I won't go astray," Zero System said confidently. "I have a program that's set up for me."
"That's good."
"You don't know, I've also read some novels, and some of them actually have systems like mine. It's amazing. How did the people who created these stories come up with them?"
Song Xia was taken aback: "Have you ever thought that there's more than one system in this world? Although Zero World has fallen into silence, there are so many worlds out there. Aren't there any other worlds that can rival Zero World's technology?"
The Zero System was stunned by her question, because in its mind, the technology of the Zero World was the most advanced.
However, the established knowledge also tells it that nothing is absolute, and there are many planes that cooperate with it, some of which have magical methods that are unheard of in the Zero World's knowledge base, so this inference is not necessarily wrong.
Its eyes lit up as it thought, "So, it's possible that I can communicate with my companions?"
“That’s possible.” Song Xia hesitated for a moment but couldn’t help interrupting its excitement. “But just like people, what if a system has a bad one? I think we need to be careful.”
The Zero System wasn't disappointed as Song Xia had imagined. Instead, it nodded affirmatively: "Xia Xia, what you said makes a lot of sense. I'll pay attention."
After making the promise, it sighed and said, "So, it seems we can't freely roam the online world anymore; we'll have to be careful about everything."
Thinking about the world and the shop connected by the system, Song Xia vowed, "I will work hard to earn points and accumulate strength. Little Zero, let's work hard together."
"Mmm." The Zero System happily rolled around in Song Xia's mind, then asked foolishly, "Is Little Zero my name?"
Song Xia was taken aback: "You don't have a name? Then Zero is..."
"Zero is because I come from the Zero World, so I'm called Zero System. I guess this shouldn't be called a name. I saw on the internet that names are chosen with care..."
Its voice grew softer and softer, and Song Xia knew that it must also be very lonely and longed to be valued.
"Can I name you?"
"Mmm." The little dumpling nodded happily. "Is my name Xiao Ling?"
"Little Ling, the 'Ling' in 'spirit'. Although you are a system, you are really very intelligent. Maybe one day you will be able to have complete self-awareness."
"That's fantastic! If you're lucky, you might even be able to create a body for me when you go to a fantasy world!"
Song Xia also yearned for the fantasy world of immortals and heroes that Xiao Ling had described, which was one of the reasons she agreed to be bound to it. After all, few people wouldn't be curious about the wonders of another world! Would the scenery be as breathtaking as in TV dramas? Could she also travel the skies alone using her cultivation methods?
She took a deep breath, shaking off the crazy thoughts in her mind. There were still many things in this world waiting for her to solve.
Xie Yuan should have sensed the crisis by now; the capital he's preparing to transfer overseas this time is more than ever before.
The board meeting is the day after tomorrow, and he will soon receive the surprise she has prepared.
