Chapter 50 The heroine has five big brothers (50)

But thinking that he had something to ask of Shen Ci, and considering the greater good, he softened his tone and said, "It's been a long time since we last met. Let's go somewhere and chat."

What he said was really euphemistic. If he was a simple person, I would actually believe it. We just made an appointment to have a chat.

"Chat? I remember that my foster father was very busy at work. What do you want to talk to me about? I have already left the Shen family..." Shen Ci paused deliberately and continued, "When I left the Shen family, I said that from now on, I would have nothing to do with the Shen family and would never have any contact with them. The Shen family took my money and returned it to the Shen family. No one stopped me. So, what do we have to talk about, foster father...ah, no, Mr. Shen."

When Shen Ci left the Shen family, Shen Ya gave him the card and told him about this matter, but he always thought it was Shen Ci's way of attracting everyone's attention.

They always thought that Shen Ci would not give up the Shen family's wealth and would always come back, but unknowingly, Shen Ci had been away from the Shen family for a year.

But the Shen family never thought about looking for Shen Ci back...

After all, it doesn’t matter whether the Shen family has Shen Ci or not.

"We, the Shen family, spent so much money to raise you. The money you paid back is just a small portion." Because he had never cared about it, he had never checked how much money was in the card given by Shen Ci.

"Pfft," Shen Ci laughed. "Mr. Shen, next time you need my help, please understand clearly before you ask. I don't have much affection for the Shen family. As for family affection, I don't see you treat me well. As for money, the Shen family spent a total of 720,000 on me, and I paid 280,000 back. So, Mr. Shen, I really don't owe the Shen family anything. Don't act like you owe the Shen family a lot."

When he said the last sentence, Shen Ci's tone turned cold, with a hint of arrogance.

Shen Yongming was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shen Ya who handed him the card, asking for an explanation.

Shen Ya nodded.

Shen Yongming frowned: "Why didn't you tell me how much it was?"

"She said there was a million in it, but we still have to check to know the exact amount. I thought you would check, so I didn't say anything nonsense." Shen Ya said cautiously, looking as if she had done something wrong.

Shen Yongming was silent for a while. It was indeed his fault. He should have checked it out, so he wouldn't be in such an awkward situation now.

They spoke in low voices and Shen Yongming deliberately covered the receiver with his hand, so Shen Ci didn't hear anything.

But there was no movement for a while, and Shen Ci didn't want to continue to tangle with this group of people. He said "hang up" and prepared to hang up the phone.

"Wait a minute, even though that's what I said, you have been raised by our Shen family for so many years. It was our fault that you left the Shen family. We will compensate you in the future. Just come out and talk. Even if we ask you for help, it depends on whether you are willing or not."

Shen Ci could see that he came to ask for help, so Shen Yongming stopped pretending and spoke frankly.

To be honest, Shen Ci would definitely not help no matter what the favor was, but what was the Shen family doing that made them come to ask her for help? She was very curious.

So the words of refusal that she was about to say were replaced by words of agreement: "Then let's arrange a place to talk. Where and when?"

"How about tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock? I've chosen the address and will let Xiaoshu send it to you." Shen Yongming said.

"OK."

Shen Ci responded, and this time he really didn't bother to be polite with Shen Yongming and hung up the phone quickly.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Ci couldn't sleep at all.

The body feels sleepy, but with the eyes closed, the brain is very active.

Shen Ci rubbed his hair, got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

"System." She called the system in her mind.

Since the plot jumped, the system has been continuously offline. If Shen Ci hadn't called it, it would not have appeared at all.

[The system is here.] The system voice responded in a listless voice.

"How's the investigation going?"

[I have no clue, I don’t know which step went wrong.] The system complained bitterly.

"So, don't investigate it. What's the use of finding out the cause? The past is over. The most important thing now is the present." Shen Ci said.

Although the system is offline and she has more freedom, the plot is now in a state of collapse. She doesn't know which step she takes and whether the plot will change again.

This change could very well be life-threatening. Although the system is online, it cannot determine which step she will take, which is fine, but the system can detect something wrong and alert her in advance.

The system was silent and there was no response.

Just when Shen Ci thought his proposal had failed, the system said: [I think the host is right. Let's put the matter aside for now. The most important thing now is the present.]

"Can I give you a report on what happened recently?" Shen Ci asked.

The system responds: [Yes.]

Shen Ci concealed some of the things he had done and explained what had happened recently.

After listening to this, the system was stunned: [Now...what does it want to do? ]

"I don't know either." Shen Ci said.

[Why did you agree to Mr. Shen’s invitation? ] The system asked.

"You have to know what he wants to do." Shen Ci replied.

The system thought about it and thought, yes, what if this is also part of the plot?

[But host, be careful. We used to have the plot for reference, but now...] Now the plot has collapsed into pieces, and the reference is completely useless.

"I know." Shen Ci nodded in response, "Well, let's just chat."

[What are you talking about? It's too confidential. I can't talk to you about it.] The system asked in a warning tone.

"Don't worry, I won't talk to you about that, I'll just talk about some ideas."

[Well, for example, you are the most difficult host I have ever managed? ] The system thought for a moment and said.

Shen Ci smiled: "Really? Am I that difficult to deal with?"

【yes.】

Shen Ci smiled but didn't respond. Indeed, she was very difficult to deal with, even she herself felt that.

【What do you think?】The system asked.

"I have a very interesting idea."

【What idea? 】

"What if, I mean what if, the vicious female supporting character didn't die."

【I didn’t understand.】

"To put it simply, for example, my current body, if the original body is not dead."

[Impossible. Why did the host play the role of the vicious female supporting role? It's because the original vicious female supporting role died, and without anyone to help the plot, the world would collapse.] The system said.

"If you're serious, I'll just say it's just an assumption." Shen Ci chuckled.

The system said: [Okay, go on.]

"Have you ever seen the soul of a vicious female supporting character who died prematurely?" Shen Ci suddenly asked.

The system shook its head: [No.]

"So, my hypothesis is that these vicious female characters who died early were not really dead. Their souls were still in their bodies, but when they woke up, they would continue to experience painful torments. Then they all chose to sleep, so there was the idea of ​​early death."

It was well-reasoned and made the system's scalp tingle. Coupled with Shen Ci's cool and serious tone, the system almost believed it.
