Chapter 445
Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows.
He leaned back on the sofa, his shirt buttoned loosely, his collarbone half exposed, slouching and smiling cynically, “Yao Yao, look, it’s really our baby pig, this little nature is all the same as yours.”
Ying Ziji: “……”
She lifted her head expressionlessly, a murderous aura floating up in her phoenix eyes.
She found that there was a kind of person who was naturally angry with people.
Nie Chao was happy: “Awesome, Seventh Younger, you can still give birth to other species here, really impressive.”
Fu Yunshen’s peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly and his eyes swept over indifferently.
“I’ll shut up I’ll shut up.” Nie Chao immediately rolled into the kitchen holding his cheerios, “I can’t be a light bulb.”
The two old men also went to the dining room, leaving the living room to the youngsters.
Only then did Ying Ziji throw the pillow in her hand towards Fu Yunshen.
“Girlfriend, I admit my mistake.” Fu Yunshen didn’t tease her anymore, his peach blossom eyes curved and he was submissive, “Look, I am so fond of you.”
Saying that, he even raised both hands and gave her a heart.
Ying Ziji was slightly silent for a while, and after a long time, she spoke, “I have to admit it.”
“Hm?” Fu Yunshen’s long arms stretched out and took the girl into his arms, “Admit what?”
She glanced at him, “Admit that you’re really good at relationships.”
She hadn’t been exposed to this kind of thing before, but she had read more books.
Her female secretary, in particular, could turn out stacks of romance novels for her.
“It’s not the same.” Fu Yunshen looked down and cupped her face, “It depends on who the target is, and with you, that won’t be possible even if it will be.”
After having a girlfriend, he could really be a bit more reckless.
Ying Ziji yawned, a little sleepy.
“Yoyo, tomorrow there will be a promotion banquet for you at the Imperial Hotel.” Fu Yunshen, “The dresses will be delivered first thing tomorrow morning.”
Hearing these words, Ying raised her eyes, “I don’t want to go.”
“The Nie family, the Mu family and the Fifth family are throwing it for you together.” Fu Yunshen paused and added, “There’s a delicious dessert.”
Ying Ziyi pondered for a moment and nodded.
Then she could go.
“It’s not, is it?” Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows, “So am I important or is dessert important?”
Ying Zigui didn’t pause this time, “You’re important.”
She could see that he was upset.
After all, she had studied psychology for a while.
“Little friend, it’s obvious that you will talk more than me.” Fu Yunshen’s eyelashes twitched, “So good at making me happy.”
Ying Ziji leaned on his shoulder and closed her eyes, “I’ve always been good at learning.”
“I’ve also found out about uncle’s matter.” Fu Yunshen stroked her head, “He was a researcher who had signed a secret agreement, his original name was Ji Fengmian.”
“He was in the core area during that experimental accident on the island over twenty years ago, and was the one who performed all the core operations, so the entire Ji family thought he was dead.”
Death poison mist is an alchemical drug that, when inhaled too much, ends up deforming even the bones of a corpse.
By the time the rescuers went in wearing radiation suits, all that was left of the core area were skeletons.
Even the dna was comprehensively damaged, making it impossible to tell who was who.
So when the death list was finally reported, all the researchers in the core area were reported.
Wen Fengmian was naturally among them.
Later, the Ji family collected a bit of the residue of the death mist and found that it was incredibly toxic, so it was a*sumed that Wen Fengmian had died in the accident.
To this day, no one knows why the death mist appeared on that island.
But after what happened in the O Chau University City explosion, Fu Yun Shen knew that it was done by someone from the Black Skull force.
Ying Ziji’s eyes narrowed slightly: “The Ji family?”
“The Ji family, it’s a family involved in scientific research.” Fu Yunshen was faint, “There are many national level researchers in this family, many secret experiments are conducted by them.”
After a pause, he added, “They are also a branch of the Ji family in the ancient martial arts world.”
The Imperial Capital Ji Family was a group of people who had branched out from the Ji Family of the Ancient Martial World.
This group of people, who did not have the talent of ancient martial arts, but were all highly intelligent and made high contributions in the field of scientific research.
So although they had left the Ancient Martial World, the Ancient Martial World’s original family would still look after them.
Ying Ziji’s eyes stared, “No wonder.”
Wen Fengmian had inhaled the most poisonous mist at that time, and had been exposed to the strongest radiation.
But he still survived, I’m afraid it was because of his ancient martial talent.
The group of Ji family members who had left the Ancient Martial World at the beginning did not have the talent, but that did not mean that the offspring would not have it.
A gifted ancient martial artist was one who would have internal energy without having to cultivate at birth.
It was much stronger than the average ancient martial artist.
This was because the condensation of internal energy was the first threshold of ancient martial arts.
Wen Fengmian came back from the dead and his ancient martial arts talent saved his life.
But accordingly, his ancient martial talent has since disappeared.
There are gains and losses, this is not just about trigonometry, it is also a constant theorem in the world.
I am afraid that even the person who released the death poison mist did not expect him to survive.
Wen Fengmian had gone to Qing Shui County incognito because he didn’t want anyone to find him and cause further trouble for others.
“But his wife, I didn’t find out where she went.” Fu Yunshen’s eyes were slightly averted, “I will check both abroad and in the ancient martial arts world.”
After all, technology and transportation were very underdeveloped at that time, especially in that key poverty alleviation area of Qing Shui County.
Moreover, in these twenty years, most of the group of people who lived in Qing Shui County at the beginning had already left, and only a few old people remained.
The only useful information we have is that Wen Fengmian’s ex-wife is very beautiful.
Other than that, there was nothing more.
“There’s no need.” Ying Ziyi was faint, “I don’t care if she shows up or not, but she can’t hurt Dad and Xiaolan anymore.”
She was relieved that Wen Xiaolan was at Norton University.
Even if that woman wanted to go looking for it, she wouldn’t be able to find it in this lifetime.
It was just that once Wen Fengmian showed up in the imperial capital by then, if that woman was also there, it would definitely attract her attention.
No matter what, she had to protect her family.
**
On the other side.
In the end, Ying Yuexuan was unable to return to the Ying family, and followed Jing Hongzhen to a small hotel in a very remote area.
Although the hotel was not dirty or messy, it only had one bed and one cupboard.
Ying Yuexuan was so used to being rich and famous that she had never lived in a house like this before.
She pursed her lips and resigned herself to her fate.
But even now she could not understand why Zhong Manhua’s attitude towards her had changed so much.
When that group of people came to her door to take her away, Zhong Manhua had sold Ying Zigui for her.
How could one high school exam result turn out to be like this?
“I told you a long time ago, this mother of yours, she doesn’t really mean it for you either.” Jing Hongzhen gave her a pitying look, “The prerequisite to make her give her heart is that you are good enough.”
“So even if Ying Zidian is better than you, but you don’t fall out of that line of excellence in her heart, she will still favour you, anyhow, she has raised you for more than ten years, and you are more obedient than Ying Zidian.”
Ying Yuexuan was a little unable to accept this, “Is that so?”
“Of course it is.” Ying Hongzhen was faint, “This mother of yours is a paranoid personality, she is very controlling of you, isn’t she? She sees you as her carefully crafted work, and now that it’s ruined, isn’t she going to throw it away?”
Ying Yuexuan’s breath caught and her heart trembled.
“A person who wants to save face so much only loves herself.” Jing Hongzhen smiled and sighed, “At the last minute, you still need your own mother to help you.”
Hearing these words, Ying Yuexuan’s fingers tightened, “What did you do again?”
It was only then that she realised that Ying Tianru’s car accident in April was the handiwork of Jing Hongzhen.
“Wait a few more days, then you will know.” But I’ll remind you, you’re out of power now, so don’t do anything else.”
“We don’t want anything else either, we want the Ying family, so don’t think about setting anything up again, she’s no longer in the same world as you.”
Ying Yuexuan couldn’t breathe any more, but she had to admit that it was true.
She calmed her breathing hard: “Okay, I’ll wait.”
She wanted revenge.
She must take revenge on Zhong Manhua.
**
The following day, evening.
The Imperial Capital Hotel.
In these two days, quite a few families in the Imperial Capital were holding promotion banquets.
But the only ones who could pack the entire Imperial Capital Hotel were the top few families in Imperial Capital.
Meng Ru and Yuan’s father had come early, and Yuan Jiacheng was also there.
The promotion banquet was not like the last New Year’s banquet, where one needed an invitation to get in.
As long as the guests came, they were able to get in.
This was because Master Nie had given a big hand and said that he must make Ying Zigui’s promotion banquet a big one.
Yuan Jiacheng didn’t have any feelings about the withdrawal of the marriage.
He also knew that as the son of the Yuan family, he would definitely have to go for the union. It didn’t matter who his wife was, what mattered was the connections and abilities.
The only thing Meng Ru could comfort herself with was that Ying did not currently know anyone from the Nie family.
“This is a big move by the Nie family.” Yuan’s father couldn’t stop marvelling, “This night’s banquet today will cost ten memories.”
“No.” Meng Ru also smiled, “I don’t know which junior of the Nie family is so favoured.”
Off to the side, Yuan Jiacheng spoke up, “There’s a name on it.”
Meng Ru lifted her head.
At the top was a silver screen with red words floating all the way around.
Just at this time, the full blessing revealed itself.
[The Nie family, the Mu family and the Fifth family join together to celebrate Miss Ying Zidian’s excellent results in the college entrance exams!
Chapter 446
Seeing the line of red letters floating across the screen, Meng Ru couldn’t believe her eyes.
What had she seen?
Although the Yuan family was not one of the great families in the imperial capital, Meng Ru had been in the celebrity circle for so long that she was well aware of many things.
Meng Ru knew that the only families that could be called top families in the imperial capital were the Nie, Mu, Fifth and Xiu families.
Scientific research families like the Ji family were not well known, as many of them had signed secret agreements not to leak out, so few people in the outside world or online knew about them.
Including Meng Ru, she had never even heard of the Ji family.
But it does not mean that the overall strength of the Ji family is poor.
Rather, it was because the area in which the Ji family was staying was so special that Meng Ru and the others were simply not qualified to know about it.
But in any case, the Nie and Mu families represented the top tier of the big families in the imperial capital.
The Fifth Family was a little worse off in terms of business, and therefore appeared to the outside world to be a step weaker than the Nie and Mu families.
The ordinary ma*ses would not have thought that the Fifth Family was the most terrifying existence.
Yet now, these three families had joined together to hold a banquet for Ying Zigui?
Meng Ru’s body swayed, unable to stand, and her face turned white little by little.
She couldn’t hear anything but the noise of the people around her.
All that remained in front of her eyes were the words “Ying Zidian”.
In the past two days, this name had become too popular.
Meng Ru could hear people talking about it as she walked down the street.
It was Yuan’s father who broke the silence first: “So it’s for the top student of the entrance exam.”
The Nie and Mu families would go to befriend high-tech talent, that was for sure.
But the results of the college entrance exam had only just come out now, so how could this move be so quick?
The only answer was that Ying Ziji had known the Nie and Mu families for a long time, and was still on good terms.
Meng Ru could hardly breathe.
At that moment, someone called out to her.
It was a noblewoman who was still on the surface with her.
“Madam Yuan, why are you standing here?” The noblewoman looked surprised. “Oh, you don’t know, do you? I guess you don’t know either, that’s Shanghai City’s top student in the entrance examination, Ying Zigui.”
“Both Elder Mu and Elder Nie like her a lot, this promotion banquet today is for her, we are really lucky to be able to come to this banquet.”
After the noblewoman finished speaking, she did not look at Meng Ru’s expression and went in first.
Meng Ru almost couldn’t catch her breath and followed her in.
The banquet had not yet started at this time, but many guests had already arrived.
Meng Ru started to look around the banquet hall and finally she saw a familiar figure.
The girl headed for the box on the right, and she was surrounded by many other people.
One of them, Master Nie Yun Jian, was Nie Yun Jian.
Meng Ru breathed heavily and immediately stepped forward.
“Mum!”
Both Yuan Jiacheng and Yuan’s father failed to stop them, and Meng Ru had already walked over.
“Miss Ying, hello, I’m a friend of your grandmother’s.” Meng Ru had a thick skin and didn’t remember anything she had done before, instead she smiled haughtily, “My name is Meng Ru, I’m from Yuan’s family, we’ve met before.”
With a single word, the entire banquet hall fell silent.
Many guests had cast astonished glances this way.
Outside the hall was where Master Nie was hosting the other guests, their own banquet for Ying was in the private box.
So although they wanted to make friends with Ying Zidian, the Nie family and the Mu family were on their side, so it was not their turn.
The guests were very self-aware.
Yuan’s father and Yuan Jiacheng didn’t expect Mengru to just go straight to it.
Ying Zidian didn’t speak, didn’t even raise his eyes.
Being completely ignored, Meng Ru was embarra*sed.
“Yeah, I remembered.” Instead, Nie Chao looked at Meng Ru for a few seconds, “You’re the crazy b*tch who didn’t know how to be polite and shouted on the plane last time?”
Meng Ru was stunned, “What?”
She suddenly remembered something.
At the end of last year, she had bumped into Nie Chao on the plane, as well as Fu Yunshen, the president of the venus group Asia Pacific.
The Nie family, the Mu family and the Fifth family had brought her enough of a shock, but there was even the venus group?!
Meng Ru looked at the girl, her face pale.
Only now did she realise what she had missed.
It was that close.
Otherwise, by this time, the Yuan family would have hitched a ride on the venus group!
“More than that.” Xiu Yu wrapped her arms around her, remembering Meng Ru as well and snickered, “You guys are unaware that at that time, Ying Dad and I came out of school and ran into that fake thousand-year-old girl Ying Yuexuan.”
“The fake girl was selling misery and pity, and when Ying Dad ignored her, she was told by this old woman that she had no family education, who is the one who has no family education?”
Meng Ru’s brain buzzed for a moment, not expecting Xiu Yu to just say it straight out.
As soon as these words came out, Elder Nie’s face sank, “Meng Ru, the Yuan family?”
The Yuan Family, he had heard of it.
The Yuan family was following the same path as the Nie family, and was also involved in electronic components.
He did look at the proposal handed over by the Yuan family, which was moderate, without any highlights, and put it aside.
In Master Nie’s mind, Ying Zidian was no different from his own granddaughter.
Without Ying Zidian, Nie Chao wouldn’t be alive now.
“Housekeeper, ask this crazy b*tch to leave.” Nie Chao also knew that Elder Nie was angry, “Didn’t I say last time that Ying Yuexuan and and those who protect her are not allowed in?”
Before Meng Ru had time to respond, she was invited out by two security officers.
The guests shook their heads repeatedly, none of them expecting to be able to watch such a big show.
Both Ying Ziji and Xiu Yu also entered the box.
After a while, Fu Yunshen also came in.
He sat down next to the girl and his eyes twitched slightly: “Did someone come to cause trouble again?”
“Seventh young man, praise me quickly.” Nie Chao took credit, “I protected Big Brother properly, am I a qualified brother?”
Fu Yunshen lifted his eyelids, “Just pull your mouth shut.”
Nie Chao: “……”
Master Nie lined up a slap on Nie Chao’s head, “Brat, how old are you, when are you going to find me a granddaughter-in-law?”
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
The matter of Meng Ru soon pa*sed and no one gave her a second thought as they all started to eat.
Ying Ziji’s eyelashes dropped: “They say that in this world, things in heaven are the most unpredictable.”
By the most unpredictable things in the sky, it means that it is impossible to tell what the heavens want to do, whether it is going to rain or thunder or destroy the world.
A powerful fortune teller can change a person’s fate, or even the fate of a family, or even the fate of a nation.
But those related to the heavens, even the most powerful are of no help.
Even if she was at her peak, she would have to pay a very heavy price to fight with the heavens.
Fu Yun Shen peeled the shrimps and put them into her bowl, his voice lowered, “Hm?”
“Now I’ve found out.” Ying Ziji faded, “The most difficult thing to gauge is the human heart.”
Fu Yunshen was silent for a moment before speaking slowly, “Yao Yao, you only need to know that those who will be swayed by the words of others are not true to you, and these people are not worth your attention.”
“That’s right, I wasn’t paying attention in the first place.” Ying looked detached, she picked up her chopsticks, took the prawns in her bowl and pa*sed them to his lips, “Boyfriend, please eat the prawns.”
Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows and smiled lowly, “Girlfriend, I don’t mind if you feed me differently next time, it’s so rusty, isn’t it?”
Ying Ziyi glanced at him.
“I’m talking about using your hands.” Fu Yunshen was in a much better mood after eating, “Yaoyao, don’t overthink it.”
“Oh.” Ying Ziji took his chopsticks back, his face expressionless, “Brought down by you.”
“……”
**
Outside the banquet hall.
Meng Ru stood in the wind, eyes constantly sweeping towards her behind her, and she was embarra*sed to the extreme.
The security personnel didn’t chase Father Yuan and Yuan Jiacheng away, but they followed them out.
Yuan’s father frowned, “What’s wrong with you?”
Meng Ru didn’t say anything, but suddenly, her mind snapped awake.
Fake Qianjin?!
As if she realised something, she got Zhong Manhua’s number out of the blacklist again and dialled it over.
Zhong Manhua had been furious with Ying Yuexuan for the past two days, and when Meng Ru asked her so, she said it straight away.
Meng Ru hung up the phone with an iron face: “Good for the Ying family, that false phoenix cheated us!”
How could they, the Yuan family, marry an adopted daughter?
It turned out that Ying Zidian was the real Ying family’s thousand-year-old daughter.
No matter what, Ying Yuexuan was half as good as her.
Meng Ru was so angry that her chest rose and fell violently.
“Sigh, this matter, originally you were at fault.” Father Yuan sighed, “Forget it, go back.”
“Mom, don’t think about climbing up with anyone either.” Yuan Jiacheng also spoke up, “It’s only right to work hard for yourself.”
Meng Ru pursed her lips, still regretting in her heart, “Let’s go.”
**
Two days later, it was time to fill out the volunteer application form, and the score line of Shanghai’s college entrance examination was also out.
The first grade line: 532
The second grade line: 454
After Ying Yuexuan saw this first grade score line, her heart was also sad for a while.
Although she had pa*sed the first grade, it was no different from not pa*sing it.
It’s all Ying Zidian’s fault.
If she hadn’t been distracted by Ying Zidian, she wouldn’t have been so preoccupied with other things in the examination hall.
Ying Yuexuan also regretted it.
She thought too much of Ying Zidian and only wanted to surpa*s her, but instead she let herself fall down.
She had to repeat her studies.
Ying Yuexuan went to a public phone on the street and called Zhong Manhua: “Mum, I really didn’t mean it this time, can I repeat the year?”
She still had hope for Zhong Manhua.
“Told you, don’t call me mum!” Zhong Manhua obviously also knew what the first grade line was, “I don’t have a daughter who is only two points over the first grade line!”
“And you want to repeat your studies? Do you know how humiliating it will be for me if you repeat? Your cla*smates have all gone to university and you’re still in high school? Are you ashamed of yourself? Ah?”
When Ying Yuexuan heard this, all her pent-up anger finally came out.
She screamed hysterically, “Face, face, face, face! Is face all you know? Without face, you can’t live?!”
Zhong Manhua was dumbfounded for a moment, and it was only after a long time that she uttered in disbelief, “How dare you yell at me?”
“Yes, I yelled at you.” Ying Yuexuan laughed coldly and tore right through, “You deserved it for losing your own daughter, you did it to yourself!”
“Don’t say it’s for my sake, you’re just doing it for your own face! Now that Ying is the top student in the entrance exams and I’ve failed, you’re unbalanced and you’re kicking me out and taking her back.”
“But you deserve it, she’s ignoring you too, and your brother is disappointed in you, don’t you deserve it?”
Every word stepped on a sore point, heartbreaking to the extreme.
Zhong Manhua slammed the phone straight away.
She was really sad and cried out directly in despair.
She was definitely not bad to Ying Yuexuan, she was even better than Ying Tianru.
Ying Yuexuan was not her own child, but she treated her as if she was her own child.
And now, Ying Yuexuan is doing this to her?
Ying Yuexuan’s exams were so bad, shouldn’t she be angry?
Why can’t any of her children understand her?
Zhong Manhua really didn’t want Ying Yuexuan to repeat her studies and cause gossip.
But she didn’t give up on Ying Yuexuan either, she just couldn’t face it and said a few words.
She was going to send Ying Yuexuan abroad and had everything ready.
After all, there was nothing she could do. Ying Yuexuan had scored too poorly in the college entrance exam.
But now, Zhong Manhua only felt cold-hearted.
For the sake of an adopted daughter, she had lost her wonderful biological daughter.
What did she want?
Before Zhong Manhua could grieve even more, the landline rang at this time, and the caller was the First Hospital.
Zhong Manhua woke up suddenly and immediately grabbed her bag and left home in a hurry.
**
Twenty minutes later.
Zhong Manhua arrived at the hospital in a hurry, together with Ying Tianliu.
Ying Tianliu came forward and frowned: “Doctor, what’s wrong? Hasn’t it stabilised?”
“The patient’s condition was already bad, and it was only barely stable, but today it suddenly deteriorated again.” The attending doctor looked in a hurry and took out a tissue to wipe the sweat from his forehead, “We have to start the liver transplant operation, have you found a matching liver source?”
