Judging from Yi Xiuyong's actions in making his fortune, every step he took and every means he used were all for the ultimate benefit.

It is unreasonable for the Yi family, the richest family in Jingzhou, to marry an upstart who has just emerged.

Judging from Yi Xiuyong’s remarks just now, she probably was discovered by someone surnamed Yi when Fang Ke 1.0 was aggressively developing industries in Jingzhou.

Although the Fang family didn't notice it, the Yi family, who was all-powerful in Jingzhou, couldn't have been unaware of it.

As expected, Yi Xiuyong smiled and said, "I really don't take the Fang family seriously, but the Fang family is lucky to have you. The Fang family is different with you."

"Don't you remember? When you were about ten years old, you dared to come to my office, cross your legs and say, 'I'm not allowed to touch the Fang family, I can do whatever I want with the rest.'"

Fang Ke: “…………”

"Weren't you and your brother investigating Yuji a while ago?" Yi Xiuyong said as if he had thought of something funny. "What's there to investigate, Keke? This is the company you founded with me and Lao Xiao when you were a few years old. Our goal was to control all the aristocratic families in Jingzhou."

"Don't make that expression. Why would I lie to you, right?"

Yi Xiuyong laughed and said, "You're a child prodigy, or should I say, someone with memories from a past life? You brought your thugs to destroy Lao Xiao and me because you knew we were already one of the best in Jingzhou at the time. You said to capture the leader first, don't we understand that principle? Lao Xiao and I are so happy."

"We originally thought you were just a little kid, but you impressed us so much that we soon started treating you as a real partner."

"You seem to know a lot about technology and biotechnology that's ahead of its time... If you give these to me and Lao Xiao, we can make a lot of money together."

Fang Ke's lips suddenly moved slightly, "Stop talking..."

Yi Xiuyong smiled cruelly, "You're so talented, you always have all kinds of ideas that we can't even think of... When I was jealous of those projects that the Ye family got, you were sitting in my conference room, do you remember?"

"do not talk!"

"You were the one who told me that the Ye family isn't as strong as it appears. The fourth son of the Ye family has a grudge against the second son. If you want to get the project, it's not impossible to start with their relationship."

"I'm asking you what to do with the project Ye Er has already secured. It's crucial for the next ten years of development. You said his project requires government paperwork to commence, so why not just burn it?"

Fang Ke's face turned pale and looked extremely ugly.

"So, when the people below told me that you and Yesi were together, do you know my expression?" Yi Xiuyong shook his head. "I was quite shocked. Is this what you call a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road?"

"........."

Fang Ke seemed to be completely confused and lost his mind, with a blank look in his eyes. Yi Xiuyong smiled with satisfaction.

He landed on his long legs, stood up, and paced slowly around the room.

"Keke, I don't mean to break you two up, but...have you come to your senses now? There's no way you two can be together. You have a feud."

Yi Xiuyong said with great pity, "Loving someone for the first time is like this: bitter, chaotic, and you'll feel inferior and like you're not good enough. You'll feel sorry for them and worry about them suffering."

"Uncle was also your age. He also tried to love and lost the most important person in his life..." He paused slightly, "But no one in this world can't live without anyone else. The past is the past, so the most important thing is to know yourself and look forward."

"...Are you talking about Miss Li, Uncle Yi?"

Fang Ke looked like he had been hit hard, with his head hanging and his voice numb.

Yi Xiuyong thought she just wanted to talk to him, "Yeah, you found that out too? As expected of Coco. Even though you've lost your memory and your helpers, you've been able to turn the tide so quickly in just over two months. That's truly remarkable."

He walked to the other side, his hands in his pockets, and said, "But now that I think about it, was I really that in love back then? It seems not entirely true. At that time, Li Wei looked down on me, teased me everywhere, and belittled me, but his sister Li Yunge admired me. Don't you think it's funny?"

"The greatest joy of being with Li Yunge is that it replenishes my self-esteem. I don't really want to elope, but she keeps begging me, so I think it would be great to abduct this daughter of the Li family and drive everyone in the Li family crazy."

"What a pity... someone later reported us, otherwise we would have been able to escape successfully. But now when I think back to that first love, what left the deepest impression on me was not Li Yunge's love, but the contemptuous look in Li Wei's eyes, like a stink bug. This look always inspires me at any time in my life. Without him, I might not be who I am today."

"Is it……"

Fang Ke lowered his head and continued, "Uncle Yi, can you tell me how you fought back and took revenge on those who once looked down on you? It's hard to fight alone, right? You don't have any cheats."

"Hack?"

Yi Xiuyong suddenly stopped in front of her, and gently lifted her chin with his calloused fingers. Fang Ke's eyes were still blank and numb, so Yi Xiuyong let go with satisfaction.

"I can't tell this to anyone else. But I can tell you."

"Oh?"

"Keke, to be honest, I never thought there would be people like me in this world."

Only then can your eyelashes grow longer and move slightly.

"You count as one, and Su Yao counts as one, so I also accept her relationship with Mo Han. Of course, in my heart, she is no match for you."

Fang Ke suddenly blinked and said, "Uncle Yi, I don't understand."

Yi Xiuyong smiled and said, "Then just think of it as listening to a story."

"After I moved south, I was bullied on a construction site one day. I got into a fight and was left with a bloody head. My ribs, calves, and internal organs were broken by the gang, and I was eventually left on the construction site to die."

"That was probably the closest I've ever been to death. Then I felt like a bug from the sky landed on my face. It observed me for a long time, then crawled from my eyes all the way to my brain. The pain was as if I were being tortured, but my body was reattached inch by inch. I came back to life, and I got up again."

"Since then, I've discovered something strange about my resurrection. I can see the luck of some people. And what's surprising is that as long as I come into contact with these people, even if I don't do anything, just physical contact can transfer their luck. My shitty life gradually became lucky."

Fang Ke pursed his lips, "But this is not enough, right?"

Yi Xiuyong smiled at her and said, "Of course, but after a year of collecting luck like this, I will be able to connect to a space mall."

He paused and looked at Fang Ke meaningfully, "You should be familiar with this, right?"

"There are so many amazing things in the mall that I'm astonished by them, but they all require Luck points in exchange. I just discovered that everyone's Luck is numerically calibrated. I only get a few points through physical contact, but if I steal someone's job, property, or life opportunities that they should have, I get hundreds of points. Naturally... the more I plunder, the stronger my Luck becomes."

"Do you understand now? I've known about the existence of parallel worlds for a long time, so I'm not really surprised by your departure."

Fang Ke nodded, "I understand, Uncle Yi, thank you for telling me this."

She moved her fingers slightly, and a gray mist chain appeared in her hand, but no one could see it at this time.

Yi Xiuyong came over and patted her shoulder, "Keke, I've spoken so much to you earnestly, but I actually only want to say one thing."

Fang Ke looked up and asked obediently, "What?"

Yi Xiuyong said, "You and I are the same kind of people. It's time for you to come back to our side."

Fang Ke avoided his gaze and said, "You are right, Uncle Yi...but my mind is very confused right now. I don't know if what you said is true. I still want to make it clear with Ye Si."

Yi Xiuyong snorted coldly, "Okay, then call him over. I'm looking for him too."

"But I can't contact him, what should I do?"

Fang Ke raised his mobile phone to show him the call records.

A hint of surprise flashed in Yi Xiuyong's eyes, and he finally explained his purpose. "In that case, do you mind if your uncle sets up a trap for you, Coco? Why don't you come with me to the manor and stay there for a few days until Yesi comes to visit?"

This means putting her under house arrest.

Fang Ke's eyes flickered slightly, and he said obediently, "Uncle Yi, you're so anxious to find him, is there something wrong with Yi Mohan?"

Yi Xiuyong's expression froze, and he looked at her coldly, "What do you know?"

Fang Ke shook his head and said, "I don't know, but at the banquet that day, Ye Si and Yi Mohan left together."

Yi Xiuyong nodded, his expression grim. He looked out the window, frowning, and said, "Not only that, the protective jade pendants I gave Mo Han were originally a pair. If his piece has a problem, the one in my hand will also react."

Yi Xiuyong took out the jade pendant from his arms and showed it to her. "This is the jade pendant I exchanged with the mall. I don't need to tell you how magical it is. It's been smooth and flawless for more than ten years. Look at this crack, it's the latest one."

Fang Ke lowered his eyes to look at the jade pendant and said quietly, "Did something happen to Yi Mohan?"

Yi Xiuyong's face was gloomy. "It's impossible for my son to get into trouble in Jingzhou. If it was really Ye Si who did it, don't blame me for not remembering the kindness I showed his father."

Fang Ke didn't say anything, but wanted to reach out and touch the crack. As if it had a sense of it, the Pisces jade pendant in Yi Xiuyong's hand suddenly broke into several pieces and shattered completely.

Fang Ke: “…I haven’t touched it yet.”

Yi Xiuyong's face changed completely. He stared at the fragments in his hand and began to tremble.

"No...impossible..."

At this moment, he no longer had the demeanor of an elder. He walked over, grabbed Fang Ke's collar, and lifted her up from the sofa.

"Tell me, where is Ye Si? Where did he take Mo Han?"
