Chapter 206 The Son Has No Choice
Lin Ruoyan couldn't be sure that the old comrade named Lu that Lu Wei knew was the one she knew, so she asked the system: "Is that old comrade of Lu Wei Lin Mengxi's biological father?"
Prodigal System: [Host, I am a prodigal system, not a consulting system.]
Lin Ruoyan tempted him with benefits: "If so, next time I see that guy, can I justify spending some money on him? After all, he is my son's biological father. Isn't it reasonable for me to spend money on this man?"
The prodigal system thought what the host said made sense: [Then the host wants to know where he is now, and whether he is short of money? ]
Lin Ruoyan was choked. She just wanted to know if it was true, but she didn't plan to contact the man. She was too busy with her career to have time for other things.
In the original book, apart from her, the real daughter of a wealthy family who changed her life, everyone else basically developed step by step and made great careers wherever they went, including Li Yiqi. She didn't stay in China, but studied in Country Y while doing her favorite research and development, and even started a company.
It's quite magical that the wife of my dear brother Lin Xu has a shadow and appears on time according to the plot of the original book.
So, according to the original book, Lin Mengxi's biological father might have already died, or was currently carrying out a dangerous mission. If she contacted him, or even took the trouble to find him, she might cause trouble for him, or even herself. Better to let things take their course. Years later, when Lin Mengxi took the college entrance exam, being the child of a martyr would give her extra points.
The prodigal system had already realized Lin Ruoyan's "fickleness". The son's biological father was probably just a tool in her plan to spend money. If he was not useful now, she would not contact him for the time being. Later... later, she might just forget about it.
Lin Ruoyan ignored the system and turned the topic back to Lu Wei, asking, "So, do you really want to retire early or switch to a civilian position in the future? Wouldn't your outstanding martial arts skills be wasted?"
"I've been keeping fit all my life, and fighting can easily lead to deaths, so I'd better hold back. Maybe I'll be invited to do some special training within the system, but otherwise, I really want to try to be an ordinary woman again, just minding my own business. Of course, if I get married and have a boy, I'll definitely train him hard and pass on all my kung fu skills to him."
Lin Ruoyan was surprised: "You won't teach me martial arts just because I have a daughter?"
"Let my daughter make her own choice. Martial arts is very hard work, and if she finds a better choice, I will fully support her," Lu Wei said. "But for boys, there's no choice. I have to train someone who can always practice with me. I can't bear to let my daughter go, but it doesn't matter to my son."
Lin Ruoyan observed a few seconds of silence for Lu Wei's son before she suddenly thought, "How about this? I have a son who's almost eight years old. He's been practicing martial arts with Chen Jun for a while. Chen Jun says he has a talent for martial arts. Could you help identify him and train with him first? He doesn't really like to exercise, so he needs someone to encourage him."
Lu Wei nodded in agreement.
Lin Mengxi, who was far away in China, was engrossed in reading a book when he sneezed for no reason. He didn't know if his mother missed him. This time, when his mother passed through Europe and went to South America, would she bring him some new gifts?
Lu Wei was happy that she was about to get a talented little apprentice, and her biological mother Lin Ruoyan was also happy that she would have a master who would encourage her son to learn martial arts. Only the son who was far away in the country did not know that he had been promised to someone else as a punching bag by his biological mother.
After all, every time his mother came back from a business trip, she would bring gifts for Lin Mengxi, especially various local books, and the cultural and tourism ones were quite nice. Of course, he would fantasize about it.
Of course, Lin Ruoyan would buy a gift for her son when she arrived in Country F. While other wealthy young ladies would shop at duty-free shops for cosmetics, designer clothes, and bags, Lin Ruoyan first visited various foreign language bookstores, always carrying an English dictionary. Whenever she saw a book on artificial intelligence or cutting-edge science, she'd buy it and mail it from the nearest post office at the international airport.
The book itself was expensive, and mailing it was heavy and even more expensive. Lu Wei didn't understand her boss's taste. Watching him struggle to check the title and content of the book with a dictionary, it didn't look like he could understand it himself. Fortunately, this heavy and expensive item didn't need to be carried in carry-on luggage; it was mailed on the spot.
Because too much time had been spent on eating, drinking and having fun, Lin Ruoyan only had enough time to buy books, and then it was time to board the plane.
That afternoon, they arrived in the capital of Bowa. Boss Liu's bodyguards met them at the airport, holding up a sign they had agreed upon. They exchanged secret signals and never mentioned Lin Ruoyan and her group's names. Only after everything was verified did Lin Ruoyan lead them into the car.
The car took them directly to the best high-rise hotel in the area. Boss Liu had rented several apartments there for long-term residence and work.
Lin Ruoyan was curious: "Boss Liu, why don't you rent an office building? Your business is growing. Wouldn't it be a bit shabby to work in a hotel apartment?"
Boss Liu smiled mysteriously. "Over in the vegetable garden, we have an office that we've renovated ourselves. This is the capital office. Mr. Lin, when we pick you up, we'll use the agreed-upon patterns and codes instead of your real names. Do you know why?"
She had discussed this with Lu Wei on the way. Lu Wei had guessed an answer that she thought was reliable, so she immediately said, "That's because there are problems with local security."
Boss Liu nodded. "That's right. The local overseas Chinese are relatively wealthy, so some bad guys are targeting Chinese people. They'll set up ambushes at the airport and go after anyone with black hair and yellow skin. If you make a sign with your name and surname written on it early in the morning, your private information will be known if your flight is delayed. Robbery and extortion are not just local bad guys, but some who can read Chinese characters as well."
I heard a story a while back about a lone employee of a major company who arrived at the airport and saw someone meeting him. He gave his name and surname, and the person who spoke fluent Mandarin, so he got in their car. They ended up taking him to a remote location, where he was robbed of everything but his underwear. Fortunately, the temperature was suitable, and he spoke a few words of slang, so he was able to walk back to the city center after a few hours. He then reported the incident to the police, and after some communication, he was finally able to return to the company's headquarters. Reporting the incident wasn't very efficient, so he was lucky to get his passport back.
I asked you to exchange some small-denomination M-notes before you come here to carry with you, just to deal with robbers and tips."
"Oh, in that case, wouldn't the hotel's security be better?" Lin Ruoyan asked, "If we have a project in the future, do we also need to rent a hotel office?"
"The hotel has better security, but if you go to other provinces in the future, it will be inconvenient to live in the capital. It is recommended that you live in the state-owned enterprise's camp. Even if you rent their barracks, there are local troops and the state-owned enterprise's own security guards to protect you." Boss Liu introduced enthusiastically.
