When I was ten years old, my brother took me down to the river to catch fish.

He pointed to the swift current and said, “The fish here are big, sister, you go over first, I'll get you a basket.”

I took him at his word and was swept away in an instant.

I reached out for help, but my brother happily ran away.

Later, I was trafficked and displaced for eight years before I found my home.

At that time, my older brother was holding a fake daughter and sitting in my parents' limousine.

Fake Qianjin covered her mouth and snickered, and looked at me with disdain: “Ugly and dirty, this is obviously a beggar's daughter,” she said.

In the end, my family disowned me, and let the fake daughter of a beggar get me killed.

I realized that my brother had done it intentionally to make room for the fake daughter of the family.

When I opened my eyes again, I went back to the day I went down to the river to feel the fish.

I stared at the whirlpools in the current and greeted my brother, “Come over here, I found something good!”

Watching my brother run over excitedly, I smiled with satisfaction.

This time, it's your turn to die!

''The fish here are big, sister, you go over first, I'll get you a basket.''

Ji Shi Yan pointed at the turbulent current and said the same words as in his previous life.

In his previous life, Ji Shi Yan suddenly told my parents that he wanted to play in the countryside, and naturally, my parents didn't have the time to agree.

He made a fuss for several days, and my parents had no choice but to finally let the nanny take the two of us.

I was only ten years old at that time, and had no idea of the evils of human nature.

Being brought to that big river by Ji Shi Yan, after hearing him out, I jumped over.

The result was that I was swept away by the swift current, and as I was dying, I was found by the traffickers, who sold me on the spot.

I lived a hellish life outside, and it wasn't until eight years later that I found a home with vague memories.

But that home had long since lost its place for me.

I've never been very cerebral and my reflexes are slow because of the drowning.

At first, my parents were glad to have me back, but gradually they began to dislike me.

Coupled with the fact that the fake Qianjin's persona is really perfect, I know even if I'm stupid, my parents like the fake Qianjin more than me ......

A lot more.

My brother didn't like me either.

They even disliked me for being a burden.

So much so that when I was killed by the fake Qian Jin, they didn't have much of a reaction, and instead even helped the fake Qian Jin to cover up this matter.

Their family of four continued to be harmonious and loving.

But after I died, I realized that the original fake Qianjin and Ji Siyan have long known, she instigated Ji Siyan to get rid of me, so that she can enter our family.

And Ji Shiyan also really did, brought me to the river, not at all for fun, is to run to get me dead.

It was a painstaking effort!

I didn't drown, but I died in the end.

But the heavens finally had mercy on me once, and gave me a chance to start over.

Ji Shiyan had already run back, and when he saw that I wasn't moving, he came back and pushed me that way.

“Sister, go quickly, can't you see how many fish there are over there?”

I dodged out of the way, looked up at the more turbulent part of the river, and ran over.

“Brother, there must be more fish here!”

Ji Shiyan was happy to see this and quickly ran over, “Then hurry down, I'll go give you ......”

“Brother look, what's that?” I pointed at the center of the river, “Oh my god! It's so big!”

Ji Shi Yan followed where I pointed and leaned forward slightly, “Where? Where?”

The earth under my feet suddenly loosened.

I hastily stepped back to avoid it, but Ji Shiyan's attention was on where I was pointing my finger, and he didn't even notice the danger coming.

He then slid down the loose earth and fell into the large river, instantly drowned by the turbulent river and disappeared without a trace.

I stood on the bank and watched it all with cold eyes.

Brother, goodbye.

I just don't know if you can be as 'lucky' as I was in my last life and survive.

Mom and Dad knew about Ji Shi Yan's accident, and the company's affairs were ignored, driving this way in just over two hours.

The nanny was crying, “I don't know what happened, I just went to the toilet and young master disappeared.

My mom swayed and almost collapsed.

I think when I had an accident in my past life, my mom shed tears for me at first.

It's just that her tears aren't worth much, I don't care for them.

My dad bent down and held my shoulders with both hands, tears in his eyes, “Ningning, tell dad, what's going on? Where's brother?”

I pointed to the place Ji Siyan had pointed out to me earlier, ''I don't know, my brother told me that the fish there were big and plentiful, and he told me to go there to catch them, and he went to the car to get me a basket.

“I went there to watch the fish, but my brother never came back.”

My mom suddenly shouted, “Ji! Kee, come over here and look!”

My dad immediately went over, and I followed him.

My mom pointed to the loose soil over there and cried, “Si Yan must have fallen from here, he fell!”

I watched my mom and dad hugging and crying by the river, my heart at peace.

Go ahead and cry. The day of your crying is still to come.

My dad got people to fish in the river, and they didn't find anyone for two days.

Everyone said that Ji Shiyan's fate was uncertain.

In fact, my parents also know very well, so turbulent river, adults fall down may not be able to come up, let alone Ji Shiyan.

After returning home, my mom has been in tears every day, regretting that she only cared about the company's business and didn't go with us.

My dad sat on the side, smoking one by one, sniffed and comforted my mom: “People can't come back from the dead, maybe it's all God's will.”

I caressed my mom's face with my small hand, “Mom, don't cry, I don't want you to be sad.”

My mom looked at me with tears in her eyes, then suddenly she broke down again and hugged me in her arms and cried.

“Ningning! Ning Ning, you mustn't be okay, you're all that's left of mom now.”

I gently patted my mom's back with my small hand, “Mom, I will always be with you.”

My dad put out his unfinished cigarette and put it in the ashtray, calling me over.

“Ningning, your brother is gone, and you're the only child left in our family.” My mom cried and complained, ”I'll always be there for you.

My mom cried and complained, “Why are you telling Ningning this? Why are you telling Ningning this? Can't she be sad about the loss of her brother?

I'm really not sad.

In fact, Ji Shiyan's death would have been fine, although it would have been cheaper for him.

I wish he hadn't died, like I did in my last life, and suffered so much before he died.

My dad shook his head, “Ning is also so old, there are some things she should be told.”

He asked me with tears in his eyes, “Ningning, do you know what death means?”

I nodded my head, “Yes, it means there is no more, never to be seen again.

“Mom and Dad, I'll never have a brother again.”

My parents cried out again, but still didn't forget to comfort me.

Actually, I was so happy that I really didn't need comforting.

3

My parents still refused to give up and searched for Ji Shi Yan for a few more days.

Ji Shi Yan really couldn't be found.

Maybe he's dead, or maybe he's just like me in my past life, he suffered brain damage after drowning and lost his memory, so he can't find his home.

This day my parents went out early in the morning again and came back only after dark.

I was holding a document that my dad's assistant had sent to me, “Dad, this is what Uncle Chen asked me to give you.

“Dad, look, I looked here, I remember I saw this news on TV before, the numbers it says are not the same as this ah.”

My dad sniffed, took it over and took a closer look, then googled it and laughed out loud.

“It's not the same, these people are so confused, they get the decimal point wrong,” he said, and patted me on the head.

Then he patted my head, the expression on his face seemed to have lightened up quite a bit, “Ning Ning is so great ah, to be able to find such a big mistake.”

That's for sure, being born again, I more or less came back with some golden fingers.

My mom nodded in relief as well, looking at me with even more tender eyes than before.

It was obvious that she no longer had any hope of finding Ji Shi Yan, and now she was placing all her hopes on me.

With a sigh of relief, my mom said, “Old Ji, we can't leave the company behind for too long, let's go back to the company starting tomorrow.”

My dad was silent for a moment and nodded, “That's right.

“Even if we run along every day, we won't be able to help much, let them keep looking.”

Just like that, my mom and dad put down their search for Ji Shi Yan and went back to the company the next day.

I kinda admired them both for being so strong and coming out so quickly without their son.

And I also returned to school.

In my previous life, my brain was slow to respond, and although I did go to school for a few days afterwards, I didn't learn anything.

In this life I continued to learn from the second grade and surprisingly I haven't forgotten what I learned before.

My academic performance had always been good before the accident in my previous life.

So I have confidence in my brain, besides, my soul is now an adult, and before I died in my previous life, I recovered my memories one after another, and my brain is getting better little by little, and my brain is definitely turning a little faster than the average child now.

Just after I sat down in the classroom, my deskmate asked me, “Ning Ning, I thought you weren't coming to class, no one to play with me these days, I'm really bored.”

She is ......

Wang Manman.

I remembered.

My best friend when I was in elementary school.

She glanced towards the door and suddenly said, “Why is she here again?”

As soon as I turned around, I saw the figure standing in front of the classroom door.

Qin Sisi!

Surprisingly, it was her!

Seeing me, Qin Sisi sucked in a breath of air, in the end, she was still too young to hide things, and quickly came in and asked me, “Where is your ...... your brother?”

The current Qin Sisi has not yet been adopted by our family, and her body is completely devoid of the reserve and condescension that stood in front of me in my last life.

But I will never forget that in my last life, when I came home, the first thing she said after seeing me was ......

“Ugly and dirty, this is clearly a beggar's daughter.”

Obviously she took my place, with everything that should belong to me piled up like that high above her, but then condescendingly mocked my suffering.

In the end, she even got me killed.

I subconsciously clenched my fists, which prevented me from slapping her.

Just a slap, that would be too cheap for her.

Ji Siyan's life and death were unknown now, but I was certain that the end of her and Ji Siyan would be certain death.

I silently took a deep breath and spoke faintly, “Didn't you see the news? My brother is dead.”

The blood color on Qin Sisi's face instantly faded, incredulous: “Dead? He's really dead?”

I nodded, “Yeah.

“He took me to catch a fish, but he fell into the river and drowned himself.”

Looking at Qin Sisi's near-desperate expression, I added, “But it's not necessarily true, what if my brother had a great life? But it's been days, if he's not dead, why doesn't he go home?”

Qin Sisi drooped her head and kept repeating two words, “Dead, dead ......”

I asked knowingly, “Sister, are you and my brother good friends?”

Qin Sisi raised her head violently, and bit by bit, a cold, resentful color gathered in the bottom of her eyes.

Did she think I couldn't read it?

I screamed out with an 'ah' and pointed at her, saying loudly, “Sister, your eyes are so scary! Are you trying to kill me?”

Qin Sisi was stunned, then covered my mouth, “Don't talk nonsense!”

Our homeroom teacher came in at that moment, and when she saw Qin Sisi, she immediately stepped forward and asked, “Classmate, who are you looking for?”

Qin Sisi gave me a warning look, let go of my mouth, and smiled as she told the homeroom teacher, “I'm here to find Ji Anning, I was classmates with his brother ......”

“Teacher, she tried to kill me!” I pointed at Qin Sisi and squeezed out two hard tears.

Qin Sisi was startled and reflexively yelled at me, “What are you talking about?”

The homeroom teacher pursed her lips and said in a deep voice, “Alright.

“You're in the middle school, right? In the future, don't come hanging around the elementary department if you have nothing to do, hurry up and leave.”

Qin Sisi gritted her teeth, no matter how unwilling she was, she could only leave like this.

The homeroom teacher calmed me down a few times, and then class began.

In the evening, my parents came to pick me up from school.

Since Ji Siyan died, my position in the hearts of these two people is unique, fearing that something will happen to me.

Although I still felt disgusted in contrast to the way they treated me in my previous life, I was still able to put on this show.

“Mom and Dad, how are you ......

“Uncle Ji, Auntie Ji, how are you.” A sweet female voice suddenly rang out, interrupting my words.

I turned around and saw Qin Sisi wearing a blue school uniform, walking over in a few steps, the ponytail at the back of her head shaking out the best of youth.

She stood still in front of my parents and bowed, “My name is Qin Sisi, I'm Ji Siyan's classmate and his good friend.”

Pain flashed between my parents' expressions, but they still kept a smile on their faces.

“Hello.”

Qin Sisi took another step forward, her complexion became pitiful, “It's like this, Uncle Ji, Aunt Ji, because I'm an orphan, Si Yan promised me before that he would sponsor me, but I haven't been able to see him lately, so ......”

“Didn't I tell you that my brother is dead?”

Anyway, I'm a little kid, and the words 'childish talk' are just right to use.

“What are you saying now, we can't find my brother to confirm ah.”

Qin Sisi silently took a deep breath and smiled at me, “Ning Ning, before your brother ......

I walked over to my mom, “Mom and dad, she even glared at me today! Like she's going to kill me, I'm scared.”

“Don't be ridiculous.” Qin Si Si retorted in a small voice, “Don't accuse people wrongly.”

I looked up at my parents.

Both of them looked a bit relieved.

I think they wanted to finish the last thing for Ji Shi Yan.

I quickly spoke up, “Besides, you're not good at studying, don't think I don't know.”

I shook my mom's arm, “Mom, it would be better to sponsor her, than to sponsor the first place in the junior high school, he's also an orphan, that's the brother called Zhoujiu, he's always praised in the school assembly.”

Qin Sisi didn't even dare to do anything to me in front of my parents, so she could only pretend to be pitiful while fighting for herself, “But Si Yan promised me ......”

“Mom and dad, I just want to sponsor brother Zhoujiu.” I said capriciously, “Do you guys only like brother and not me?”

“What are you talking about?” My mom lightly patted my head, obviously like she wanted to teach me a lesson, but then realized that in a public place, in the end, she gave me face, “Promise you, I'll go find the principal to talk about this matter.”

Mom and dad took me to the principal.

When I passed by Qin Sisi, I gave her a smug look, the arrogant and provocative look was all returned to her, who told her that's how she looked at me in her previous life.

Qin Sisi looked at me with eyes as if they were hardened with poison, I knew she hated to get me killed.

But in this life she doesn't have a chance.

6

Zhou Ju was called to the principal's office.

The fifteen year old boy had already grown to over one meter eight, and although he was only wearing his school uniform, he was still the brightest presence in the crowd.

The principal told Zhoujiu about our family's financial support, and he didn't have much of a reaction, just nodded to my parents, his voice clear and cold: “Thank you.

For me, the money can be given to anyone, but not to Qin Sisi.

Zhoujiu is a good student, and will certainly have a great future, I do not want to ask for anything in return, just as a good deed to do for their own virtue.

Hopefully, my revenge will go smoothly in this life.

But I also completely offended Qin Sisi.

She is good-looking, is the school flower, the junior high school can be said to be a call.

This day after class, Wang Manman and I went to the restroom and were blocked by a few boys wearing junior high school uniforms.

This look is to avenge Qin Sisi's posture.

One of the boys grabbed me by the collar: “Are you the little bastard who bullied Cissy? Little girl, an elementary school student dares to bully a junior high school student, who gave you the guts?”

Wang Manman was so scared that her voice shivered, but she still tried to protect me: “You guys are not allowed to bully Ningning, I'll tell the teacher ......”

I gave Wang Manman a reassuring smile, and smiled at the boys, “Brothers, do you know that my parents ......

Before I could say the line “My father, Zhang Erhe”, a basketball suddenly hit the boy's head.

The boy cursed and turned his head, and I also looked over.

Zhou Zhu took a few steps over to me, his face was still expressionless, and he said lightly, “Bullying an elementary school student?”

Zhoujiu's status in the school is very high, the principal is very important, those boys naturally do not dare to fool around in front of him, gray slipped away.

Zhoujiu picked up the basketball, also ready to go.

“Brother!” I pulled Wang Manman over and said with a smile, “Thank you, brother.”

Zhou Zhou looked at me with a wave-less gaze, “No need to thank you.”

It's really cold.

“Brother, can you take me and my classmates to study when you have time later?” I was afraid that he would reject me, so I pulled on Wang Manman and asked again, “Can I?”

Zhou Ju just looked at me and said, “Yes.”

Anyway, to him, it's easy for him, a university bully, to teach two elementary school students, it's easy, it's easy!

7

Ten years later.

Wang Manman and I were walking hand in hand on the university campus, and the person who was leading us was Zhou Shuju.

But he had already graduated and had long since set up his own company.

At first, I just didn't want to fund Qin Sisi, and I also wanted to be angry with her, so I randomly chose Zhou Ju.

I didn't expect to reap such great rewards.

No matter what Zhou Ju does, he is the genius of geniuses!

Wang Manman sighed as she walked, “Brother Zhoujuku, if it wasn't for you helping me with my tuition, how could I go to the same university as the college bully ah, thank you, thank you so much.”

Zhou Shu walked on my other side, still holding my suitcase in his hand, and laughed out lightly at his words, “Then you should thank Ning Ning.”

Wang Manman hugged me, “Yes, I should thank you.

“If it wasn't for the fact that you were too embarrassed to let Brother Zhoujiu tutor you for fear of rejection and had to bring me along, how could I have gotten into such a good university?”

I couldn't help but give her a blank look, “Don't sell yourself short.”

Zhou Shu sent the two of us to the dormitory, and had just helped me make the bed when the cell phone rang.

He answered the phone and told me, “Ningning, I have to go back to the company for a meeting, I'm leaving first, come over later.”

I sent him out, “Don't come over tonight, I'll stay in the dormitory tonight”.

He had a house near the school and had bought all my supplies and put them there during the summer vacation.

My parents also said that if I didn't like living in the dorms, they would let me live in a weekly house.

But I really cherished my time in college, not having to envy Ji Siyan and Qin Sisi like I did in my previous life, being able to learn all sorts of things.

After sending Zhoujuku away, I went back to the dormitory and introduced myself to my roommates.

My cell phone rang at this time.

The person on the other side of the phone said, “Miss, those two people got on the train and bought tickets to Kyoto.”

I hooked up my lips, “You don't have to do anything, just follow.”

Hanging up the phone, I coldly stared at the cell phone screen.

Ji Siyan and Qin Sisi are coming back.

 

I haven't given up looking for Ji Siyan these past few years, even if I'm dead, I still want to get accurate information.

Just following the path I bumped myself down in my previous life, I really found it.

When my people found Ji Shi Yan, he was already eighteen years old.

And sent me a video.

The video of Ji Shiyan completely unlike the previous life of the tall and noble, the whole person black and thin, and very short, looks only one meter seven out of the head.

It was like a black monkey that hadn't evolved well.

At that time he was being tied to a pillar, and the trafficker was using a whip to whip him hard.

“I'll let you run! I'll let you run!”

Ji Shiyan was crying and begging for mercy, and in the end he was beaten into incontinence, so the traffickers let him go, and poured a bucket of cold water on the ground, telling him to get up and get to work.

He threw a bucket of cold water on him and told him to get up and get to work. “If you can't sell them, you'll have to work hard, or I'll put you in a pot and stew you!”

During those years, I received videos of Ji Shi Yan being tortured almost every month.

To be honest, it was really cool.

8

The year I found Ji Shi Yan, Qin Sisi didn't even get into a junior college because she scored over ninety points on the college entrance exam.

She didn't have the money to go back to school, so she could only go out to work.

The people I sent to keep an eye on her also sent me videos of her from time to time.

In the past few years, I watched her from the factory girl to the evening on the factory director, by the factory director's wife with people in the street stripped naked to beat half dead, and in the nightclub dancing .......

I didn't feel sorry for her because she was a girl.

Because in a previous life she got me killed.

Also because, it was all her choice.

I admit that I'm just rendered despicable to the core by hate, and it's cool to see Qin Sisi end up like this.

I was the one who had someone 'unintentionally' put on a show in front of Qin Sisi last month, saying that they had seen the boy who had once disappeared from the Ji family somewhere, and Qin Sisi instantly reacted to the fact that that person was Ji Shi Yan.

So she saved up some money and set off alone on a journey to find Ji Shi Yan.

Really let her find ......

Must let her find ah.

But they didn't go straight back to our house, my people told me that after Qin Sisi brought Ji Shiyan back, she settled him in her small rental house.

The two of them were in there day in and day out.

Until I finished my military training, Zhou Ju came to pick me up and send me home.

When I arrived home, my parents greeted me.

“Let me see, is it a tan?” My mom looked me up and down and nodded, “It's okay, my daughter is still white.”

My dad smiled and came over, “My daughter, even if she's tanned, so what? The ability is there.”

I've learned a lot in these few years by following this genius, Zhoujiu.

Especially this summer, when I went to the company for an internship and signed a big project, it was Zhoujiu who acted as a military advisor for me behind the scenes.

But he never claimed credit, and my parents didn't know about it either, and just took it as me being capable on my own.

Of course, I do have the ability.

After all, when I was born again, I hungered and thirsted to learn all kinds of knowledge, but I didn't work hard for nothing.

My parents decided to give the company to me a long time ago ......

They didn't have any other choice either.

“Mr! Madam!” The family's user ran in hurriedly.

I knew that a good show is coming.

“A young ...... man outside said that he was young master Si Yan! Young master is back!”

“What?”

My parents were both shocked, and in the next second, they quickly stepped out.

That back looks really quite anxious.

Zhou Ju naturally knew what was going on in our house, but when he saw me standing still, he stopped and turned around to ask me, “It should be your brother coming back, aren't you going out to take a look?”

“Of course I'm going out.”

How could I miss such a wonderful picture?

I lifted my feet and walked out, and when I reached the entrance of the entrance hall I realized that this time Zhoujiu didn't move instead.

As soon as I turned around, I met his deep line of sight, which seemed to carry a probing look.

I raised my eyebrows, “What's wrong?”

Zhoujiu didn't answer my question, he just collected the real emotions under his eyes and followed me, “Let's go.”

9

From afar I could hear the shocking cry at the front door.

“Mom and Dad, I'm your son!”

I walked over.

Just like when they saw me in my last life, my parents didn't show excitement at first, not even a reunion hug.

At this moment, Ji Siyan was skinny as hell and had long since lost his looks, completely unable to find any trace of his former self.

Still, my mom reacted first: “Don't get excited first, speak slowly.”

Qin Sisi opened her mouth on the side: “Uncle and auntie, why don't we go in first and talk about it, Si Yan is quite tired from his long journey back.”

After hearing this, my parents looked at each other and took Ji Shi Yan back.

When they passed me, Qin Sisi gave me a provocative look, as if to say, “I got your brother back, your good days are over.

On the contrary, Ji Siyan didn't have any special reaction when he looked at me.

When he fell into such a big river in the first place, coupled with the fact that he had been tortured for so many years, his brain had long since gone out of whack, so how could he still remember what I had once done to him.

“Mom and Dad.” I stood still and spoke in a cold voice.

Upon hearing this, both my parents turned around to look at me.

My remaining light skimmed over Qin Sisi's body, then I frowned, “This person is ugly and dirty, he is clearly a beggar's son, are you guys sure that he is a brother?”

Hearing me say this, Ji Siyan instantly became furious: “Grass your mom you are the beggar's son!”

My father shouted: “How do you talk? You have no education at all.”

Ji Shiyan's brain is not good, but the indignation and resentment in his heart grows quite fast.

“What qualifications do you have to talk about my old man like that?” He pointed at my father, “Do you know what I've been through in the past ten years? I'm lucky to get enough to eat every day, what kind of bullshit education is that?”

My dad was so angry that his face turned red, but he couldn't yell at Ji Shi Yan, so in the end he could only keep his mouth shut.

My mom pursed her lips and advised, “Alright, let's go in first and talk about it.”

Ji Siyan pointed at me again: “Keep your mouth shut.”

After saying this, he took the lead and walked inside, looking around as he walked, sighing, “This place is really fucking good! It's like a wonderland.”

Once he said that, he got angry again: “Grass! I'm out there suffering, you guys eat, drink and play all day long ......”.

Suddenly, he turned around and pointed at my parents and me: “You guys owe me!”

“......”

He suddenly saw Zhoujiu again and casually pointed at Zhoujiu's nose: “Who is he?”

No one said anything.

Qin Sisi sighed and softly comforted Ji Shi Yan: “Shi Yan, don't be angry, Uncle and Auntie were very sad to lose their son at that time, and it's only human to adopt another son ......”

“What?” Ji Shi Yan's black and yellow face showed a furious expression, “You guys are still looking for someone to replace me? I've been suffering outside all these years, so he's enjoying all my blessings for me, right?”

“Damn it!” He cursed and was about to pounce on Zhoujiu.

My father pushed him away.

Ji Shi Yan didn't stand still, fell to the ground, and began to cry.

“Can you afford to treat me right? I have suffered for so many years, you ......”

“Okay!” My father interrupted Ji Shi Yan with a low growl, “Be honest with me! Otherwise, get the hell out of here!”

Qin Sisi said unconvincingly, “Uncle Ji, he's your own son!”

Ji Siyan also stood up, “Yes, I'm your real son!”

My dad didn't care about that, and warned, “This house is no place for you to be a bully.”

Seeing this, Ji Siyan was honest, and Qin Sisi didn't dare to say anything else.

10

In the living room.

My parents are sitting on the sofa.

Qin Sisi stood beside Ji Shi Yan, while Ji Shi Yan looked here and there.

“So my family is so rich... I'm so rich! I'm going to eat ten meat buns in one sitting!”

Even Qin Sisi almost couldn't help but roll her eyes as she reminded, “Si Yan, your family has tens of billions of dollars, don't talk about meat buns, you can eat buns made of gold if you want to.

“There are so many delicacies from the mountains and the sea, you'll be able to eat them all in the future.”

Ji Shi Yan raised his hand and wiped his nose: “I want to eat meat buns! I used to watch them eat it, but they wouldn't give it to me, so I craved it. I want to eat meat buns now!

My parents: “......”

I can't help it! ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 

Once Ji Shi Yan heard that there will be meat buns to eat in a while, he was so happy that he couldn't stop talking, a mouthful of big black teeth was exposed, and the left lower tooth was still missing one.

My dad closed his eyes, practically without eyes.

Ji Shi Yan happily about to sit down on the sofa.

My dad just opened his eyes and immediately spoke out to stop him, “Wait a moment.”

Ji Shi Yan paused, “What's wrong?”

“What's wrong?” My dad pointed at his body, “Look at how dirty you are! Take a shower first. ......”

Ji Shi Yan was furious again, “I don't like to take a bath, they splash me with cold water every day, I don't like water ......”

My dad didn't listen to him and continued, “Pull out a piece of your hair and have it genetically identified, right now.”

Although Ji Shi Yan's brain is not good, his self-esteem is quite strong.

He nodded his head like he suddenly realized, “I know, you are suspecting that I am cheating you, aren't you?”

Jumping in place several times, Ji Shi Yan angrily roared, ''I didn't lie! I am your son!”

My father just said, “Get out of here if you don't pull out!”

Qin Sisi gently pushed Ji Shi Yan, “Hurry up!”

Ji Shi Yan pulled out a hair and handed it to my dad, “Take it!”

My dad immediately went to get an appraisal.

Before the results came out, my parents arranged for Ji Shi Yan to stay in an empty house outside.

Qin Sisi also followed.

Everyone else left, and only then did Choujou ask me, “Hate your brother that much?”

I looked at him sideways.

He gazed into my eyes with a meaningful look, “The Ji An Ning I know would never say those words.”

What words?

That Ji Siyan was ugly and dirty, the son of a beggar?

I laughed coldly, ''Maybe I am such a person? Are you so sure that you know me well?”

Zhoujiu didn't say anything, just looked at me silently, the probing under his eyes seemed to have returned.

My breathing seemed to become a little difficult under his gaze, taking a deep breath, I told Zhoujiu about the time when I was ten years old, when Ji Shi Yan took me to the river to catch fish, trying to create an accident to drown me.

In his stiffened expression, I continued, “He did all this for Qin Sisi.”

Zhoujiu still didn't say anything.

I let out another cold laugh, more of a self-deprecating one.

What's the point of talking to him about this?

Would he believe it?

I turned around and prepared to go upstairs.

But my wrist was tight.

It was the warmth of Zhoujiu's palm.

I had a footstep, but didn't turn around.

I only heard him say, “I'll help you.”

It's been ten years, and I have long since formulated a plan for revenge, so I don't even need Zhoujiu to intervene.

But I was still touched when he said that.

It's funny to say, I thought I would never experience a feeling like 'touched' again.

I turned around and met Zhoujiu's deep line of sight: “I ......”

But he interrupted me, his voice was low and hoarse, as if he was trying his best to suppress something: “Ji Anning, I want to ask you a question.”

I was slightly stunned, then nodded.

Zhou Ju's low voice once again sounded in my ears, ''Uncle Ji told me that the person who offered to sponsor me back then was you.

“Why?”

This was the first time Zhoujiu asked me this question.

But I didn't know how to answer for a moment.

It was my hesitation that made Zhou Zu laugh out, “Don't want to answer?

“Still don't know how to answer?”

He stepped forward, his large palm still holding my wrist, looking straight into my eyes, “I'll help you answer.

“Because you loathed Qin Sisi, you didn't want to give the money to Qin Sisi, but you felt no pleasure of revenge, so you said my name in front of Qin Sisi.”

Maybe it was weakness, maybe it was something, I suddenly wanted to break away from Zhou Xiu's hand.

But he clutched my wrist rigidly and just wouldn't let go, and took another step forward to force himself closer to me, “There was no sympathy or pity for me, nor was there a hint of liking me, I was just a name you casually uttered at that time, it wasn't me it could have been anyone.

“I was right, wasn't I? Kiannin?”

I pushed, finally shaking off his hand.

“What do you have to be so aggravated about giving you money?”

I hadn't even realized to myself how much obvious irritation I carried in my voice.

Choujou just lowered his eyes and said a faint 'I know' and walked away.

I told myself to leave him alone.

It's not like I've wronged him, it's his own pretentiousness.

But lying in bed at night, I tossed and turned without a good night's sleep.

It's all because of Zhoujiu's bad behavior!

What's wrong with him?

The test results came out.

The man who looks like a black monkey is Ji Shi Yan.

But my parents weren't happy about it.

They picked up Ji Shi Yan and arranged for him to live in a place where the users lived first.

“You'll move upstairs when they've packed up all your rooms.”

Ji Shi Yan's requirements for living weren't that high right now, he sat on his butt on the sofa, like a grandpa, and called out to that user from that day, “You, go tell the kitchen to make me some more meat bu
