Countdown to Awakening

Shang Wen's tone was very unfriendly, and Xu Bingbing stopped acting. She said, "Lin Hao, what's your attitude towards me? Your parents are getting divorced soon, and the position of Mrs. Lin will be mine. Shouldn't you stick to your words?"

When Shang Wen heard this, she was dumbfounded. How could there be such a shameless person in the world?

"Xu Bingbing, it seems you didn't get anything from my mom, so you want to come to me to see if you can get something you want? Well, let me tell you, even if my parents are getting divorced, you can't expect to get anything from me."

Xu Bingbing was not surprised at his answer and continued, "But I already have a five-year-old child, and he's your biological brother."

Shang Wen sneered and replied, "If it's not my mother's child, it's nothing. I won't acknowledge it. Even if my father acknowledges your illegitimate child, it's useless."

Shang Wen went in after she finished speaking.

When Li Xuemei saw her son coming back, she hurriedly asked Xu Bingbing if she had made things difficult for him.

"No, what can she possibly do to me? Mom, I have good news for you. I've gradually made some achievements in the company, and those who didn't support me before are gradually starting to see me in my shoes."

Li Xuemei was very surprised to hear the news. During the days when Lin Guohua was away on business, the company's direction gradually shifted towards her son. This was a great thing.

Those old friends in the company who supported her still support her son. The rest are those who supported Lin Guohua. I didn't expect them to change so quickly...

"Son, why not take advantage of this opportunity and marry into the Fang family? Fang Yu is my favorite daughter-in-law. If you don't marry her, I won't be able to close my eyes at night. She's so good in every way. If you marry her, it will be a great help to your career. Listen to me, there will be no problem in marrying Fang Yu. It will be full of benefits."

Shang Wen shook her head.

The person she wanted to marry was Qi Yuanyuan. Since their relationship in the previous life was not favored by the world, in this life, as a man, no one would look at her and Qi Yuanyuan with strange eyes even if they wanted to marry.

"Mom, Fang Yu and I are just friends, and I already have a girlfriend. When I achieve something more, I'll bring her back to see you."

Li Xuemei was unhappy when she heard this.

"You're just kidding! How could you marry that woman from the countryside? You're going to take over the company in the future. How can marrying a woman like that help you?"

"Mom, I can make my own fortune without relying on Fang Yu and my wife's family."

"On your own? That's totally impossible. Your father didn't start his business from scratch. If it weren't for me, would he be able to do what he is today? I know you like that girl from the countryside, but you have to learn to weigh the pros and cons. She's not right for you. Fang Yu is the best for you. I tell you, even if you fall in love with that girl, I won't allow her to enter our house! I will never allow a girl from the countryside to climb into our Lin family. It will do you no good but only harm."

Shang Wen was silent. She didn't expect that their love, which hadn't been approved by the world in the 21st century, wouldn't be allowed now...

"Mom, I will definitely prove to you that I will never rely on my wife's family. I will definitely make the company better than before."

"I hope you can, but I want to remind you that even if you do, I will not accept her as my daughter-in-law. If you insist on marrying her, I will not recognize you. Don't blame me for kicking you out later."

"Mom... aren't you being a little unreasonable?"

Li Xuemei just rolled her eyes at her and went upstairs without saying anything else.

This father and son are each more difficult to manage than the other. If it were a daughter, she would probably be much more obedient.

I really regret giving up my career and focusing on my family, which gave Lin Guohua the opportunity to take advantage of me.

I didn't want to say anything bad to Xu Bingbing, but who would have thought that she would provoke me in front of me? Even the most magnanimous person would not be able to tolerate it, right?

She was not angry because of Xu Bingbing's provocation, but because of the pitiful person Xu Bingbing was.

She has an education, good looks, and decent conditions, so why did she fall for Lin Guohua and be willing to be his mistress?

With her conditions, she would surely be able to do well if she worked hard on her own. Although she might not be able to earn as much as Lin Guohua gave her, it would be enough...

Why should you follow an old man, kowtow to him and even give birth to his children?

Doesn't she know that illegitimate children have a bad reputation?

Never mind... She herself didn't realize these things, so no matter how much I tried to persuade her, it would be useless. Maybe this was her fate.

-

A few days later, in the evening.

Jiang Wen is still looking for a good location on the mountain.

Just as he was about to move forward, Jiang Wen suddenly noticed that the Anling Pagoda was in front of him.

Everyone in the village said that this place was very unlucky, and he didn't notice that it was getting late.

Let’s go back and look for it tomorrow. It’s too late today. We can’t wait until night, right?

Just as he was about to leave, Jiang Wen suddenly heard a child crying in front of him...

No way... He even encountered something so bizarre? Could it really be the Anling Pagoda's fault?

Jiang Wen suddenly felt a cold wind behind him.

The child's crying was intermittent, and it seemed very familiar...

Jiang Wen decided to go forward and check, what if it was someone he knew?

Although he was afraid, he always felt that if he encountered danger, if it was really evil, Yingdi would definitely come to protect him. If not...

He just didn't believe it. The Anling Tower was said to be so weird. If such a thing really happened, wouldn't the village have been gone long ago?

Indeed, he should not be afraid, but those who threw children in there should be afraid.

He didn't do these things, so those people won't seek revenge on him.

Although he thought so, Jiang Wen was inevitably timid and kept frowning.

"Brother Ying, you must protect me... I will be fine... If anything happens, I can still go over there and reunite with you, right? I really don't believe anything strange can happen in a mountain like this... Are you still afraid of ghosts?"

Jiang Wen mustered up the courage to move forward.

A small figure appeared before his eyes.

That child turned out to be Yingdi’s second daughter?

How could this happen? Wasn't she being well-fed in the Chen family? How could this happen...?

"Zhao Di?" Jiang Wen shouted.

The little girl turned her head and looked at Jiang Wen with a wronged look on her face.

“Wuuuuu…Dad…Daddy…is cold…” Zhaodi said hesitantly.

Jiang Wen immediately squatted down and asked, "Kid, who left you here? Who was it?"
