“Stop the car!”
Qi Xiao suddenly roared.
He couldn’t stand to hear what An Jingxian had just said. His face was already filled with gloom, and his narrow eyes were icy cold.
The driver was startled and quickly stopped the car by the side of the road.
An Jingxian furrowed his brow. “Seriously? Does this guy have some serious mental illness?“
He himself was fond of mocking others, and he even enjoyed it. But when others mocked him in return, he became furious?
Qi Xiao vented his anger by slamming the car door hard, and his tall figure disappeared into the boundless darkness of the night.
“Young Master, what should we do?” The driver wanted to ask what to do next.
An Jingxian’s eyes were indifferent. “Drive, let’s go home.”
“Alright, Young Master.”
The driver started the car again and continued driving, silently praying that when they returned, Chairman An wouldn’t come and ask him where the other Young Master had gone.
After Qi Xiao got out of the car, he felt suffocated and wanted to drink.
He tormented himself by repeatedly recalling the words Shi Yunzi had said to him.
“You look decent, but your temperament is lacking, nowhere near as good as Yan Tingshen.”
Every time he thought about it, Qi Xiao felt like his heart was being cut with a knife.
Yes, he couldn’t compare to Yan Tingshen!
In terms of family background and appearance, he was far inferior to Yan Tingshen!
But he couldn’t just give up like this, absolutely not!
Qi Xiao clenched his fists tightly, silently repeating in his heart: It’s time for him to rise!
For the sake of winning over Shi Yunzi, his white moonlight goddess.
It’s time for him to rise!
At this moment, Qi Xiao’s long-held resentment towards his mother completely dissipated.
He finally understood why his mother, despite so many eligible bachelors in the world, had chosen to become the mistress of a married man, and even bore his child without having any official status.
Indeed, if possible, he would also be willing to become the third wheel in Shi Yunzi and Yan Tingshen’s marriage, to be the clandestine third party who could only enjoy secret love with Shi Yunzi behind closed doors…
Qi Xiao walked to an empty intersection and sat down on the edge of a flower bed by the roadside.
Back when he was just a working-class laborer, whenever he felt down, he would sit like this.
With his arms propped on his knees, it felt like the weight of life had bent his back, making it hard for him to breathe.
Of course, now Qi Xiao didn’t look as pitiful as before.
He was dressed in designer clothes from international brands, and the cuff of his shirt alone cost as much as several months’ salary for an ordinary person. The high-tech smartphone he held in his hand was a limited edition in the country.
He sat there for quite some time before finally unlocking his phone and removing his mother’s number from the blacklist. He sent her a text message:
[Mom, once my career stabilizes here, I will definitely bring you over to enjoy a good life!]
Yes, he will bring her to live with him in the An’s old mansion and enjoy her old age!
Lu Lili was very efficient in her work. She took care of Fu Dezheng’s contract and accommodation in just one morning.
Of course, she didn’t have to do it herself. There were people designated to carry out these tasks according to her arrangements.
From that day on, Lu Lili also became busy.
She thought to herself that since she was bound to the “Hard Work and Get Rich” system, she couldn’t be lazy like before.
She started working and learning in the company with her Grandpa, and in her spare time, she practiced martial arts with Fu Dezheng. Her schedule was packed.
Although she was tired every day, she gained a lot of experience.
Half a month later—
As Lu Lili walked out of the company’s gate, she heard the voice of the system ringing in her ear:
[Host, the female lead is here to spy on you again.]
