Chapter 333 The Orphanage's Lies: The Handsome Flower Boy 33
"Host, the system does not recommend using violence to educate children. If a child can be taught through violence, that is domestication, not education."
Many parents beat their children violently simply to vent their anger and intimidate them, without actually educating them.
However, after analysis, it was found that the host's original world had many families that domesticated children.
But here, violence is not supported unless the child has committed a crime.
We can't hit him, it's useless anyway. Lu Jinnian is a smart kid, he knows that this is not in line with the moral requirements of society.
But he still does these things, and in doing so, his morality is suppressed.
If he really commits a crime, it won't be his turn to fight; society will take the bullet for him.
"Ding-dong! Mission triggered!"
Correct Lu Jinnian's distorted view of material acquisition and teach him how to view and use wealth correctly.
Correct the bad habit of using sweet words to get benefits.
Task Rewards:
Salvage value +15%.
One overseas precision electronic component production line.
One imported Mercedes-Benz W126.
As they chatted, the task came up. After a moment of thought, Shen Ci realized that this was about correcting Lu Jinnian's core flaw.
He used sweet talk and flattery to deceive others in exchange for material things. In his original life, many women were deceived by him.
While it's unfair to condemn all scammers who cheat people out of money or emotions—not all of them are scammed, and many even give money willingly—it's not a universal truth.
But the system's task is to prevent him from doing that. If he can rely on himself, then of course he should. Correct values do not support living off a woman.
If nothing is changed, then there will be no difference from the original life, and it will inevitably lead to destruction.
How can things be completely changed? Shen Ci rode his bicycle in front, with Lu Jinnian on the back. Instead of going home, they rode to the department store.
Her expression was calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever, and she remained silent the entire way, a silence that made Lu Jinnian even more uneasy.
There was no whip lashing him, but the silence seemed to compress the surrounding air.
Upon arriving at the department store, Shen Ci immediately pulled Lu Jinnian towards the watch counter.
All sorts of watches were displayed under the glass of the counter, sparkling and gleaming under the lights.
It was obvious at a glance that the prices weren't cheap, Shen Ci pointed to several expensive watches.
The Shanghai brand also has an imported Seiko watch made entirely of steel and designed to withstand shock.
"Xiao Nian, look at these watches, aren't they nice?"
Lu Jinnian was completely dumbfounded. He didn't know what Shen Ci was going to do, but he knew that his mother had seen and heard everything that had happened in the classroom.
If someone had shown him the watch like this before, he would have been very happy.
They would also ponder what kind of sweet words to say to make the other party willingly buy it for them, since any piece of it could be resold on the black market.
Then all the money will go into their own pockets.
But at this moment, looking at Shen Ci's emotionless face, he felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't smile at all.
No one hit him, no one scolded him, and no one even blamed her, but he couldn't describe the discomfort he felt; a deep sense of self-reproach weighed heavily on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
If he feels uncomfortable, it's because he still has a conscience and knows that what he did was wrong.
"Mom, I don't need a watch. I can tell the time with the clock in the classroom."
He refused in a low voice, his tone pleading and muffled.
Shen Ci pretended not to hear. Whether you like it or not, not speaking means you agree.
"Comrade, wrap up this Shanghai brand 7120, this all-steel calendar watch, and this Seiko watch."
She randomly pointed to a few items, all of which were among the most expensive in the store. She didn't look at the styles, only the prices, and then paid directly, spending about 400 yuan in total.
Since the watches were all men's watches and were for Lu Jinnian, the system immediately prompted a 100x cashback offer.
Lu Jinnian was stunned. He said he didn't like any of them!
Shen Ci picked up the most expensive Seiko watch, pulled his hand over, and put it on his wrist without saying a word.
The watch strap was metal and felt cool to the touch, but Lu Jinnian felt as if he had been burned.
He tried to pull his hand back, but Shen Ci held on tightly.
It didn't feel like a watch; it felt more like a branding iron, branded onto his hand and his heart.
"Wear it."
Shen Ci spoke calmly, but his eyes were very intimidating.
After leaving the watch counter, Shen Ci led him outside to the very center of the mall, where they could see most of the mall's counters.
After stopping, he took out a thick wad of ten-yuan notes from his bag and stuffed them into Lu Jinnian's hand.
The thickness and weight were substantial. Lu Jinnian felt a sinking feeling in his heart; there must be at least 1,000 yuan inside.
Why is Mom giving him so much money?
"This, Mom?"
He panicked instantly; he didn't want these things.
Shen Ci looked at him coldly and assigned him a task.
Here is a thousand dollars.
Your task tonight is to spend it all.
I'll go home when the money runs out.
Remember, this money is only for you to buy things; you can't give it away or use it to buy things for me. Go on, I'll wait for you here.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinnian's face turned pale instantly. He understood what Shen Ci meant. His lips trembled slightly, and his heart felt as if it were being torn apart.
"Mom, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! Please don't do this."
His apology was incoherent. Although he didn't understand what he had done wrong, he could sense that Shen Ci was angry.
This kind of generosity was cold and abnormal, making him feel more scared and uncomfortable than being hit or scolded.
He would rather Shen Ci scold him or beat him than be treated like this. He felt extremely uneasy when the money was stuffed into his hands.
Shen Ci, however, seemed determined, neither hitting nor scolding nor getting angry, but she also didn't smile.
"This isn't a punishment, it's a test to improve your spending skills. You have to spend it all; this is a task."
She took a half step back, found a chair to rest on, and sat down to wait. Unfortunately, she had no phone to play with, so she could only wait.
The thick wad of banknotes in his hand was heavy and cold, but Lu Jinnian felt it was burning hot, so hot that he could hardly hold it.
I never dared to dream of having such a huge sum of money before, but now it's become a hot potato.
It was the first time he had ever held so much money, standing in a bustling shopping mall, and it was also the first time he had ever felt the pressure of having so much money. He didn't know what to do.
Shen Ci was very determined. Lu Jinnian looked up and around at the huge shopping mall, which sold all kinds of things.
But what is he lacking?
Clothes? His wardrobe was already crammed with all sorts of new clothes his mother had bought for him, including all the winter clothes, from underwear to outerwear.
And school supplies like backpacks, pens, and pencil cases are all the best.
As for snacks and food, the meals cooked by Aunt Li at home are even better than those from outside, and you can eat as much as you want.
