Chapter 17
Does She Want to Turn the Heavens upside down?
“Mr. Li, that’s great news! The computer system is working again.” Just moments after Coco left, Li Zhenting’s phone rang urgently. He answered it, and Yang Guo’s voice came through with excitement.
Li Zhenting paused for a moment, then replied in a deep voice, “Good, you can all take a rest now. You’ve worked hard.”
After hanging up the phone, Li Zhenting felt a wave of relief wash over him. He poured himself a glass of water and drank it slowly.
However, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.
The computer system had been a complete mess just a while ago, so how did it suddenly get fixed in an instant?
He looked up at the computer screen, and suddenly, Ding Ding’s small figure flashed in his mind…
Could it be… him?
Ding Ding had always shown exceptional talent and a keen interest in computer systems.
To nurture his passion, Li Zhenting had hired top computer experts from around the world to train him since he was only two years old.
He stood up abruptly, realizing that this mischievous little rascal might be causing all the trouble.
Perhaps, fueled by resentment over his mother’s situation, Ding Ding was deliberately seeking revenge.
Thinking about the somersaulting Ultraman and the words “jerk” displayed on the screen, Li Zhenting became even more convinced of his suspicion.
Last night, after Li Zhenting promised to marry Shen Ning, Ding Ding took the initiative to fix the computer, which had made him happy.
That kid! He had been deceived!
A slight smile formed on Li Zhenting’s lips.
His son was more capable than he had anticipated! This situation was giving him quite a headache.
Early in the morning, Shen Ning arrived at Blue Sky Kindergarten.
Coco and Xiao Xiao were now five years old and couldn’t return to the United States, so it was necessary for them to start attending kindergarten in the local area as soon as possible.
However, the tuition fees at Blue Sky Kindergarten were quite steep.
For each child, the annual tuition fee amounted to seventy to eighty thousand, not including meal expenses, as well as rent and utilities. The financial burden weighed heavily on her.
During her years in the United States, she had worked tirelessly at odd jobs just to make ends meet. Now, in the Capital, everything was just beginning.
Nevertheless, she didn’t hesitate and immediately enrolled Coco and Xiao Xiao.
At present, she owned a 50% stake in Guqi Perfume Shop!
As long as she led the company back on track, the business would soon regain its former glory, and there would be ample opportunity to earn money.
The thought of money ignited a spark in her eyes, rejuvenating her spirit. She turned and headed toward Guqi Perfume Shop.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she came face to face with that despicable Li Zhenting.
He walked towards her from the other end of the corridor, dressed in a finely tailored suit, exuding an air of talent and attractiveness. A thin layer of frost covered his handsome face, and his eyes bore a dark and inscrutable gaze.
Shen Ning only hesitated for a moment before striding forward as if nothing had happened, not even sparing him a glance.
This heartless and unscrupulous man was not worthy of her acknowledgment. It would be a waste of her breath even to greet him. Her words held some nutritional value, unlike the remnants of this contemptible man.
Li Zhenting furrowed his brow.
This woman exuded a strong hostility early in the morning, projecting an unwelcoming aura. He began to suspect that she might be plotting something!
Inexplicably, the image of her submissive and obedient appearance flashed through his mind, and his gaze grew deeper.
She had indeed changed!
Inside the Rolls-Royce limousine parked downstairs.
Li Zhenting lit a cigar, took a deep drag, and exhaled. His handsome face looked desolate, and his gaze carried a profound intensity.
Six years ago, Shen Ning’s suicide attempt by jumping into the sea had truly shocked him.
During that time, the company had several crucial clients, and he worked tirelessly, often spending nights in the hotel’s presidential suite.
After completing his work, he received the news of her death.
He rushed to the seaside, facing the boundless ocean, and stood there in a daze.
He didn’t love her, but he had never wished for her death!
In the six years since Shen Ning’s “death,” Li Zhenting’s life had not been easy either.
His grandmother and his birth mother, Li Wanqing, both had a fondness for Shen Ning.
As a result, his family saw him as indirectly responsible for Shen Ning’s death, and he faced constant criticism from them.
He took a deep puff of the cigar, his gaze shifting to the distant blue sky and white clouds. A young girl’s figure flickered in his mind, and his heart inexplicably ached.
When he was seventeen, someone had pushed him off a cliff on a hillside. During the fall, sharp branches pierced his eyes, causing him to lose consciousness.
It was a girl who saved him!
During that time, with his eyes covered in thick bandages, lying in a hospital room engulfed in darkness, feeling despondent, it was that girl who stayed by his side and took care of him.
The girl’s laughter was crisp, her demeanor optimistic and cheerful. She possessed profound knowledge and shared his interests.
Although he couldn’t see her face, he was deeply drawn to her character and intellect. He fell completely in love with her, vowing to marry no one else in his lifetime.
Later, his grandmother found him and took him away in the middle of the night.
But he never had the chance to see her face.
It was only later, through various sources, that he discovered the girl was none other than Shen Mei…
