Chapter 72 Wei Family Past, Zheng Yuan Panic
Seeing everyone about to withdraw their votes, Jiang Wenming panicked: "Don't panic, everyone. Lu Xingchen didn't say what her work was anyway. 'Night's Wine' is fine too. Just vote, why bother changing it? It's too much trouble..."
Jiang Wenli: "Yeah, Lu Xingchen, why are you so petty? You didn't even say what your work was. So what if someone drank all their wine late at night?"
Wei Ying: "Jiang Wenming, Jiang Wenli, why are you talking to him now that the night is late and the wine is finished? Do you have a relationship with him?"
Jiang Wenming immediately denied it: "How would I know him? He's not from our district."
Wei Lin: "How do you know he's not from our district? Have you contacted him?"
Jiang Wenming panicked: "Nonsense! I just think Lu Xingchen is too petty. He can vote for whomever he wants..."
Lu Xingchen sneered: "You can vote for whomever you want, but don't try to use me!"
Seeing that Lu Xingchen was indeed angry, the people in District 33 believed that the man who had just finished drinking was definitely not Lu Xingchen, so a large number of them went to switch their allegiance.
Lu Xingchen and Zheng Yuan were only a little over 10,000 votes apart. In less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Xingchen regained first place, while Zheng Yuan's Ye Lan Jiu Jin moved to second place.
Zheng Yuan had been keeping an eye on his ranking. When he saw that there was still half an hour left before the voting ended and he was more than 10,000 votes ahead of Lu Xingchen, he felt relieved.
Zheng Yuan was extremely proud and sent a private message to Wei Ting: "See? I'm number one! Haha, I can be number one even without you, Wei Ting!"
Wei Ting frowned: "What did you do?"
Feeling that the dust had settled, Zheng Yuan became much more audacious: "Haha, what did I do? Of course, I took advantage of the situation!"
Wei Ting's face turned cold, and she said sarcastically, "That's true. Since you have nothing to lose anyway, you can only shamelessly rely on other people's influence. I wonder if your parents in heaven would be pleased to see you like this. After all, they died early, which has become an advantage for you!"
Zheng Yuan was furious: "Wei Ting!"
You shouldn't insult someone by exposing their weaknesses. Wei Ting's words didn't evoke even a shred of remorse in Zheng Yuansheng; instead, they fueled his anger: "It seems you don't care at all about the lives of your family members!"
Wei Ting looked at Zheng Yuan who was firmly in first place and felt confused.
Could it be that Zheng Yuan really came first?
Heaven is so unfair!
Zheng Yuan lost his parents at a young age and lived alone from the age of seven or eight, experiencing the full spectrum of human emotions.
Wei Ting's father was a classmate and friend of Zheng Yuan's parents.
When Zheng Yuan was seventeen or eighteen years old, Wei Ting's parents finally found him.
Seeing their old friend's son in such a miserable state, Wei Ting's parents felt guilty that it took them so long to find him.
When they found Zheng Yuan, he had just gotten into trouble and was starving, freezing, and seriously injured; he was barely clinging to life.
To make amends, they helped Zheng Yuan settle the matter, took him to their home, and after he recovered from his injuries, sent him to their company for intensive training.
Zheng Yuan was too old to study, but he taught himself a lot, and Wei Ting's parents appreciated him more and more.
Although they appreciated him, Wei Ting's parents once told her that Zheng Yuan was a scheming person, too cruel in his actions, and lacked kindness, so he should not be a close friend.
It's okay to give some help to the son of an old friend, but that's not enough.
After Wei Ting's parents saw through Zheng Yuan, they still took care of him, but asked Zheng Yuan to move out and gradually became estranged from him.
Zheng Yuan noticed this and started visiting frequently. After a while, Wei Ting's parents felt bad and asked him to come over occasionally.
Sometimes, when the entire Wei family gathered together, Zheng Yuan would happen to be there. He had strong communication skills and secretly made friends with many young members of the Wei family.
During this sea survival mission, Zheng Yuan, Wei Ting, and Wei Ting's two cousins, Wei Feng and Wei Qing, were all in District 34.
Upon arriving here, Zheng Yuan revealed that he possessed a super cheat ability and wanted to form an alliance with the Wei siblings.
Wei Ting knew his nature and immediately refused. Unfortunately, the two cousins did not listen to Wei Ting's advice and were deceived by him. They collected supplies for him, fought for him, and went to the island with him. In the end, they suffered a loss, one was seriously injured, and the other was disabled. Now they are extremely miserable and rely on Wei Ting for support.
Ironically, during the survival test a few days ago, Zheng Yuan helped many people in District 34 overcome difficulties, gaining considerable popularity.
