Chapter 271 Unveiling the Mask of Tenderness
Jiang Yiran was silent for a moment after hearing this.
"What do you mean, I look like I'm dying?"
"You have a very strong ego, but many of your troubles also come from your excessive self-awareness," Pu Qiubai explained helplessly. "I urge you to relax and enjoy life. I also hope you can relax and not be so eager for quick success."
She originally thought this fortune teller was interesting, but now it seems that his words were a bit too annoying.
Staring at the man's face, she finally understood why he looked familiar. It was the man who had been with Jiang Fu before.
Today, Pu Qiubai was wearing a simple outfit that was completely different from before, and his hair was unkempt and lay there, making him look like a completely different person from the last time they met.
"Did Jiang Fu ask you to say this?"
"It has nothing to do with her. I'm just giving you a few words." He took out the payment code, "You can pay if you want."
Jiang Yiran walked away with a cold face.
After thinking for a long time, she remembered that Pu Qiubai's eyes when he looked at Jing Bailu were a little ambiguous.
However, that was ultimately a delusion. How could a charlatan selling things on the street marry the daughter of the Jing family? The difference in their family background alone was enough to make him discouraged.
Although Jiang Zhongcheng has cut off ties with her now, she still has other family and friends, so she is not isolated and helpless.
Ling family.
Mr. Ling was chatting with his brothers.
"How are the latest experiments going? Any progress?"
"It's still too easy to miscarry after the embryo implants. The average person's body may not be suitable for experiments at all." Ling Tianhe sighed helplessly.
Although they had chosen the youngest and healthiest women among the general population, it was still easy to make mistakes.
It might really be due to physical reasons. After all, the woman who gave birth to the origin cell fusion was a constant person whose physical fitness was far superior to that of ordinary people.
At the door, the housekeeper greeted the girl, "Miss Yi Ran is back."
"Yeah." Jiang Yiran ignored him and went straight to the living room.
She soon heard the conversation inside.
"The data provided by Xie Zhen cannot be wrong. Based on our accumulation of previous experimental data, we still have to find a breakthrough from the matrix." Ling Tianhe's face was serious, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
In fact, there is an experimental subject that is closest to their expectations.
"Just say whatever you want to say." Old Master Ling gestured for him to speak freely.
"We've let Ah Ci down on this matter." Ling Tianhe pondered for a moment, "But Ah Ci's data is the closest to success."
Ordinary people cannot carry origin cells, but Ling Xici, who has been injected with low-level inactivated origin cells since childhood, has a slightly better physique. If a person with a physique similar to Ling Xici can be found, the success rate of the experiment will be greatly improved.
Old Master Ling leaned on his cane and said, "For something like this, there's no need to talk about the most suitable person."
The reason why their Ling family participated in the experiment on Eternal Island was that they hoped to make some achievements in this experiment, and then subsequent cooperation would be a natural result.
A girl who not only meets the experimental conditions but also has the blood of the Ling family is the most suitable candidate.
Jiang Yiran.
"Grandpa, I'm back." Jiang Yiran walked in.
Ling Tianhe suddenly became alert. Their conversation was not suitable for Jiang Yiran to hear.
As the elder brother, Mr. Ling was obviously much calmer. The old man quickly showed a kind smile and said, "Yiran, you look unhappy?"
"No, I just met a nasty charlatan on the road today." Jiang Yiran chatted casually for a few words and went upstairs.
She actually heard some of the conversation.
The two old people said something sorry about her mother, and seemed to have something important to entrust to her.
I had a bad feeling in my heart.
The sound of footsteps interrupted her thoughts, and the young man walked into the hall briskly.
"Yi Ran is here too. I bought some cheesecake. You should have some too." Ling Mujiang walked into the kitchen carrying a box of cake.
"Thank you, second brother."
"Go do your homework, I'll bring the cake to your room later." He smiled warmly.
Ling Tianhe turned his face away only after everyone left.
"Did something good happen? Why are you laughing like that?"
Recently, Ling Mujiang's performance in the company has become more and more outstanding. In addition, the Shan family felt guilty and sent a lot of business to him. For a while, Ling Mujiang was the most popular person.
He experienced promotion, wealth, and the death of his wife.
Mr. Ling is a traditional person and cannot bear to see the company being inherited by an outsider, so naturally he wants to give him a warning.
"I do have something I want to discuss with the old man." Ling Mujiang simply went straight to the point.
"I want to give the few deals I have on hand to Big Brother. After all, this family is still the Ling family's world. Let Big Brother accumulate more achievements at this age so that he can manage the company in the future, right?"
The reasons he gave were reasonable and paved the way for Ling Zhichen. Although Mr. Ling had his doubts, he still accepted it.
"Brother, aren't you afraid of him..."
"He doesn't dare to do anything to the company. Ask Zhichen's assistant to pay more attention. Nothing will happen." Old Master Ling said calmly.
Jiang Yiran did his homework for a while, and then Ling Mujiang brought in the cake.
"Thank you, second brother." She put the cake down and started looking at the test paper.
Ling Mujiang sat beside her and sighed, "You are the only girl in the entire Ling family, so everyone dotes on you. Sometimes I envy you."
"What do I have to envy?"
"Maybe he envies your leisure time," he sighed. "You don't want Zhichen and I to be constantly busy at the company trying to inherit the family business, and we have to think carefully about everything. You just need to take the dividends, and that's enough."
Jiang Yiran felt a kind of indescribable discomfort.
Obviously, she also has a share in the future of the Ling family, but now it seems that she is like a canary kept in the backyard.
"Brother, I actually don't really like this." She frowned.
She hopes that she can also participate in the affairs of the Ling family.
Before she could speak, Ling Mujiang sighed, "What nonsense! Wouldn't it be nice to have some free time? Everyone in the Ling family dotes on you."
No, although she didn't quite understand why she needed to be in charge of the company, she also wanted a piece of the pie.
Suddenly, she realized a fact.
The boys of the Ling family can inherit the family business, or have their own careers like Ling Yuheng.
But there was nothing commendable about her mother. She was just pitied and remembered as a daughter and a wife.
Although the girls of the Ling family are favored, there is actually no place for girls to interfere in the most important foundation.
The girl's pupils suddenly contracted, causing Ling Mujiang to raise the corners of his mouth unconsciously.
His guidance was worthwhile. Jiang Yiran finally uncovered the secret of the Ling family on his own and realized his dire situation.
"Yi Ran, what's wrong with you?"
"I..." Jiang Yiran felt a chill creeping up his spine, and a strange, nauseating feeling surged up his throat.
She remembered what the two old men had said.
It takes a thousand days to raise an army and a moment to deploy it. The daughter of the Ling family was doted on, so naturally, there was a time to repay the favor, but the price was...
