With a cheat code, she travels through the 40s and hoards goods to take her motherland to new height

"It's okay, let me check first. We'll see what happens."

Shu Ran originally wanted to suppress Wang Chenglin, but then she thought that this would indirectly help the illegitimate child.

The fact that illegitimate children and legitimate children have equal inheritance rights in modern society is disgusting enough; she doesn't want to be a stepping stone for someone else.

"Sure! Just let me know if you need any help!"

Qi Jing readily agreed, saying that she only had one like-minded friend, and she couldn't let the Wang family ruin her.

【Check-in task 1: Go to the Wang family and witness Wang Tianlei's return!】

Reward: All the dirt on Wang Jiadong (Wang Chenglin's father).

The sound was sudden, and Shu Ran paused in her peach-eating motion, but continued chatting with Qi Jing as if nothing had happened.

"What's the name of his illegitimate son? Did he go back to the Wang family?"

Qi Jing frowned slightly: "I think his name is Wang Lei, but I didn't pay much attention. By the way, there's a banquet tonight, a welcome ceremony held by Wang Chenglin's father for his illegitimate son. I even received an invitation. If I'm free tonight, I'll go check it out."

"You should have received it too. Everyone in this area on the mountaintop, except for the Wu family who have a grudge against the Wang family, should have received it."

"Hmm, come along if you want to see the fun."

Shu Ran nodded; she couldn't help but go even if she didn't want to join in the excitement.

She can only receive the reward after completing this task 1.

She wanted to see what kind of scandal it was.

At 3 p.m., the information that Shu Ran had requested was delivered to her.

Shu Ran spotted a familiar name on the page of the investigation report about illegitimate children.

"Qian Xinyi?"

It took Shu Ran a long time to piece together the plot of the book from her memory; it was somewhat blurry. She searched through her spatial storage.

She remembered that as soon as she woke up, she wrote down her notes, noting down the key points from her memory. Was Qian Xinyi the name of her man?

found it!

Wang Tianlei!

(ノ⊙w⊙)ノ嚯, it’s true!

it's fate!

Shu Ran decided that Wang Chenglin's life could be spared!

She wanted to suppress Wang Chenglin's father, Wang Jiadong!

Once Wang Jiadong pressed the button, neither Wang Chenglin nor Wang Tianlei could change anything!

At this stage, Qian Xinyi and Wang Tianlei have started dating, and what follows is a series of ups and downs.

During this time, Wang Tianlei will arrange a marriage, and Qian Xinyi will cry and make a scene, saying, "I love you as a person, not your money."

Then, with the help of his arranged marriage wife's family, Wang Tianlei will rise to power.

Qian Xinyi, on the other hand, compromised and became a concubine in order to rise to the top!

Then comes the classic drama of the "phoenix man"!

Huh, he's following the exact same path as Sheng Ru.

Shu Ran was extremely disgusted.

I dressed simply; after all, it's a banquet, and I just wanted to be impolite.

She was afraid that if she dressed up too well, Wang Chenglin would lose faith in her.

unlucky!

Wang Jiadong held a high-ranking official position and was considered a prominent figure in Hong Kong.

Putting aside his character and morality, Wang Jiadong is truly capable to have reached this position.

There were quite a few people at the banquet, mostly younger members of their families, not the heirs.

It can be considered a statement, a way of giving face.

"That's quite a big operation!"

As Shu Ran walked into the banquet hall arm in arm with Gou Zixun, she whispered.

"Look, hardly anyone from the Wang family came. Only that one person cares. The old man of the Wang family is the biological father of Wang Jiadong's wife, how could he possibly acknowledge it?"

Gou Zixun also whispered like a thief.

"Old Master Wang is seriously ill, and Wang Jiadong's wife is taking care of him in the hospital. Are the rest of the Wang family just going to ignore him?"

Shu Ran thought about the information she had seen that afternoon. She thought Wang Chengxuan was quite promising and that she would like to get in touch with him if she had the chance.

Within the Wang family, he is considered a very upright person, and he has the means to protect himself and his family. Compared to other members of the Wang family, his character is simply invaluable!

"Everyone's watching and waiting, hoping to see that family both suffer heavy losses!"

After saying that, Gou Zixun quietly picked up a plate of dessert, took a small bite, and quietly threw it into the trash can next to him.

So sweet!

"Don't eat it, it tastes awful!"

Shu Ran suddenly felt the urge to pick up a piece and try it. If Gou Zixun said it was awful, then it must be really awful!

"Then I'll have to try it!"

Gou Zixun was speechless for a moment, then poured two glasses of orange juice and held them in his hands.

"yue!"

Shu Ran was instantly disgusted; it was too cloying! And it even had an indescribable smell of dishcloth!

He pulled out a handkerchief, spat it on, wrapped it up, and threw it directly into the trash can.

"I told you it would taste bad! But you wouldn't believe me!"

Despite grumbling, she still handed over the orange juice she had prepared.

Shu Ran quickly took the glass, drank half a glass of orange juice, and suppressed the sweetness in her throat.

"I remember their desserts were pretty good!"

“The youngest son in Wang Jiadong’s family organized the banquet and pocketed a considerable amount of the money.”

"how do you know?"

Shu Ran genuinely felt that her two close friends were very well-informed.

It made her seem like a reclusive old woman who didn't know about the internet.

Oh, there's no internet yet.

"You forgot? This hotel belongs to my family. My dad gave it to me to practice on. To be fair, you still own three percent of this hotel!"

"It seems to be the case!"

Shu Ran remembered.

About two years ago, after Gou Zixun took over the hotel, he asked her to buy dessert recipes. She gave him more than a dozen regular ones, but Gou Zixun refused to accept them for free and instead gave her three percent of the hotel's shares.

She had entrusted everything to Shu Lichan and had long forgotten about this matter.

Gou Zixun glanced at Shu Ran lightly, his eyes filled with resentment. Was he really that insignificant?

Shu Ran lowered her head guiltily. She had really forgotten. With so many businesses, this one was relatively inconspicuous and didn't involve much, so Shu Lichan hadn't reported on it much!

The lights suddenly went out, and everything focused on the stage.

"Today is the day my eldest son returns to the Wang family. He has suffered so much these past years..."

On the stage, a middle-aged man of about fifty was holding a microphone, saying something that brought tears to his eyes, which seemed somewhat like self-deception.

Shu Ran listened casually, not very interested, only wanting to know when the check-in was considered successful.

Do we have to wait for the "male lead"—Wang Tianlei—to appear?

It should be soon. She's not in a hurry; she just wants to have some gossip and see what's going on behind her back.

Aside from his private life, the materials submitted by Shu Jiayi didn't reveal any other dark history about Wang Jiadong.

"Now, please welcome my eldest son, Wang Tianlei, to the stage to meet everyone."

Applause rang out, though not very loudly.

Shu Ran also clapped her hands symbolically twice.

A handsome young man with neatly combed slicked-back hair stepped onto the stage in a sharp black suit.

From the direction he came from, Shu Ran, with her excellent eyesight, spotted a face that was both strange and familiar—Qian Xinyi.

He was arguing with a middle-aged woman next to him, and there was even a minor physical altercation.
