They were talking about these things here, and Sister Li was seen there with his head lowered, his hands twisted together, and a painful expression on his face. Moreover, she was also making a choice, something she thought she should do but did not do at the beginning.
Sister Li asked Li Nanchao: "Mr. Li, this Transcendent has a big Lineage as the background. Is it really that important?"
Li Nanchao looked at Sister Li and said, "Of course, if nothing else, if Chen Nan is the child of the Chen family in Seven Great Families from now on, who would dare to treat him like this?
In addition, being in Lineage means that it is a part of the Chen family's power. The whole world will recognize it, and there is no such thing as suppression.
Of course, suppression is always a thing, because in Lineage, there are disputes between the children, which is inevitable. But with a big Lineage as a protector, it is tens of millions of times stronger than those Rogue Person. "
Feng Wu said on the side, "Hey, tell me, this Chen Nan also has the surname Chen, and is so talented. Could it be that he is really the illegitimate son of the Chen family? That would be so exciting."
Jiang Lili frowned and said, "You are just worried about the world being in chaos! What's so good about having an illegitimate child? It's not even shameful."
Feng Wu straightened his back and said, "What's so shameful about that? I'm so envious of what I've done with my ability!"
Little Black Ox, who had been silent for most of the day, said, "Chen Nan is really unusual. He has been since he was a child."
Li Nanchao said, "There are some Transcendent who are not ordinary since they were young. Forget it, let's not talk about this nonsense. The question now is, if we want to help Chen Nan, do we have any good means?"
Jiang Lili said, "I can sell my house!"
Li Nanchao kept frowning and thought to herself, these old ladies are too naive and will sell their houses at every turn. But he still said kindly, "Lili, you will find that with the price of our Wu City, you can sell dozens of buildings, and it won't be enough to cover the shortfall of Chen Nan."
"Well, while you are chatting, I went out to buy groceries." Sister Li stood up and said.
Because this was Sister Li's job, everyone didn't pay attention, so they greeted her and asked her to leave on her own.
Sister Li walked down the stairs with heavy steps. After struggling for a while, he still pulled out the necklace around his neck.
It was a pure gold necklace. It was a bit dazzling for a working-class girl like her to wear. The pendant of the necklace is a small heart-shaped box, which looks very tacky, but Sister Li has maintained it very well and makes it shine like gold.
There is a buckle on the pendant. When you open it, there is a small paper roll inside.
Sister Li opened the paper roll and saw a series of numbers on it.
It was a phone number, but it was not a normal number range. Not many people in the world would call this number.
Such phone numbers are all obtained by special persons through special applications from the communications department. People without status cannot use such number segments.
Sister Li took out his Qianyuan mobile phone and dialed this number.
At first there was a tone indicating that the number was unavailable, but after ringing seven times, it changed to a normal dialing tone.
"Du-du-du..."
No one answered the phone, and Sister Li's courage continued to disappear as the voice prolonged. Until she was about to hang up, a voice came from the other side. "Hello, who are you?"
It was the voice of a calm man.
"Shimei, it's me." Sister Li said.
"Yunfeng?" the person on the phone said in surprise, "Why are you calling me?"
There were tears in Sister Li's eyes, and she said weakly, "I won't disturb you, I told you. I'm not calling you for myself, but for our children!"
She finished all this in one breath, fearing that if she waited any longer, she would lose the courage to speak.
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a long time, and then he said, "Our children? You mean?"
Sister Li said with tears, "After you left Suzhou, I found out that you were pregnant. You told me that it was a critical period for your career development, so there should not be any negative impact, and I could not interfere with you with anything.
So I didn't tell you about this, and then...
Forget it, you know what you did to me later. I don't want anything to do with you either. But the child was still born. It was difficult for me to survive at that time, so I sent the child to Orphanage in Wu City.
Now, this child has grown up and he is very good. I think you should have heard of his name: Chen Nan! "
The person on the other end of the phone is Transcendent Lineage, the current person in charge of the Chen family, Chen Shimei.
He is the biological father of Chen Jiadong and Chen Wan'er, and now he has almost reached the peak level of Transcendent. This year, he is only in his early forties, and he can be said to be the best among super geniuses.
Chen Shimei didn't speak, but Sister Li Yunfeng was a little crazy over there. She shouted towards the phone, "Chen Shimei, speak! I know that I am an ordinary woman, and it doesn't matter to you. You didn't call me cheating at the beginning, even if it almost ruined my life, to you, it was just for fun!"
But you took birth control measures back then!
Now Chen Nan is eighteen years old, he is your flesh and blood! You can treat me like garbage, but what about your children?
You are also a man! "
"Stop talking!" Chen Shimei said almost as an order, "Tell me how much it will cost."
Li Yunfeng sneered and said, "Money? If you want money, will I go to bed with you? I am an ordinary woman, but I am not that cheap!"
I'm not calling you to ask for money, I just hope that you can give him some help to help him get through this difficult time for the sake of Chen Nan being your flesh and blood. "
Chen Shimei was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I understand."
Then he hung up the phone.
Li Yunfeng's hands were shaking. She was not afraid of Chen Shimei, even if she knew that he would kill her easily. She was just angry that for so many years, she had been burdened with an emotional debt to Chen Nan, and suffered so much in the world that she worked so hard to survive until now.
She had been suppressing it for too long. Now, once again hearing the man who had concealed his identity and tricked her into bed with his sweet words, a burst of anger burst out from her forbearing temperament.
After putting away the phone, Li Yunfeng walked down the street crying and went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Even if everyone pointed at her and thought she was a lunatic, they didn't care.
In Chen Shimei's office, he put down the special landline phone, and his heart was not very peaceful.
Although Li Yunfeng is an ordinary woman, she was the woman he truly loved when he was young. Therefore, he told her the special number.
Such a number cannot be stored in the mobile phone. He also told Li Yunfeng to delete the record in time after making the call.
But later, he discovered that even a genius like him could not do whatever he wanted. Since I was born in this big Lineage, there is no such thing as bullshit love or even feelings.
Some are just fights for rights and resources. Why talk about love when your own brothers will stab you in the back?
For the great cause of Lineage and for his own ambition, he could only accept the marriage arranged by Lineage. His current wife is the eldest daughter of the Zhao Family, a marriage between Lineage and Lineage.
In order to ascend, to become stronger, and to become the head of the Chen family in the future, he could only choose this woman who was unfamiliar to him.
After the two got together, even going to bed was just like a routine, and they never had anything to talk about. Because they can't talk, even if they are married, it doesn't mean that the two families are one family.
Two families are still two families, so the husband and wife are also suspicious of each other and plotting against each other.
Just say, is this called living?
Think about it, the person next to you is very likely to dissolve poison into the tea bowl handed to you one day, or even stab you in your sleep.
Even when going to bed, Chen Shimei will be careful not to have a knife penetrate his back at the moment when he is out of his mind.
It's not like this has never happened.
Sacrificing one daughter can severely damage another Lineage. No matter how you put it, it is a worthwhile thing.
Chen Shimei thought about his difficulties and all of this, but he knew that this was nothing more than making excuses for himself, because he didn't have no choice. As long as he didn't have such ambitions and used some survival wisdom, he could stay on the edge of the Chen family.
At this time, he can live whatever life he wants. Where would it be like now?
Li Yunfeng's accusation against him revived the human nature that had long been buried in his heart.
But he couldn't do anything extraordinary.
But it's okay to do something within your ability. After all, your strength is there. If you want to secretly help Chen Nan, there is no problem at all.
In fact, he has already paid attention to Chen Nan.
He had been paying attention to the child since he came to public attention. Because there were photos of Chen Nan in those media, and he liked them when he saw them, and he felt a sense of intimacy.
Therefore, he also praised Chen Nan in front of Chen Jiadong and Chen Wan'er. Of course, the purpose of such praise is just to inspire the two children.
But the encouragement is not necessary, but the jealousy caused by it is real.
Now, Chen Shimei is very happy to ask him to help Chen Nan. This is especially true after knowing that Chen Nan is actually his biological son.
He even had some expectations for Chen Nan. Such expectations were just like his expectations for Li Yunfeng.
It was a kind of happiness that returned to ordinary life, but he knew that he didn't deserve it.
Are you successful?
I am very successful.
Are you really successful?
I am a failure.
Chen Shimei rubbed his face a few times with his hands, and then called his closest servant. He explained many details to him and asked him to deal with matters related to Chen Nan.
