The Drawbacks of the Mental Strengthening Chapter

Among the medical institutions of the Save the World Group, Zhang Xuezhou was the first to extort benefits, and Ren Yisheng followed suit.

The brief conversation almost determined the price the Wang Household would have to pay in this incident.

Despite some wrangling and handover, with the Supreme Committee Chairman Changkong Luo nodding and Zhu Bufan agreeing, it was basically a done deal.

Compared to the Ren Household's near-complete elimination in the past, the Wang Household's damage this time was smaller in scope and the cost they suffered was lower.

With Ren Yisheng and actions proceeding in an orderly manner, the potential rift between the Ren Household and the major Lineage of Western Capital City is likely to ease.

While they might not be inseparable, at least they don't have to worry about potentially violent confrontations.

To quell external threats, one must first secure internal stability. The division of resources and the transfer of power among Alliance States are best done in a calm and peaceful manner.

Inside the sealed medical container, Zhang Xuezhou gazed at these people, gaining an understanding of the top-level order of the Alliance States.

"It's rule by man!"

Zhang Xuezhou had previously encountered some of the rules of Western Capital City, where the various Lineage restrained each other, preventing them from acting recklessly while also enabling them to unite and develop together.

In the top-level order, all relationships are not entirely governed by law.

This situation may seem chaotic, but it is the reality of the Alliance States.

If this system were to regress, it would be a feudal system where the Luofu Imperial Family family held absolute power.

However, when this relationship was to be developed further, Zhang Xuezhou suddenly thought of the vassal states within the territory of the Han Dynasty.

Seemingly gathered in Western Capital City, each large Lineage controls a vast talent pool, economy, and technology through various overlapping connections, making them essentially like feudal states.

The national system seems to have remained unchanged since its initial formation, constantly revolving within this circle.

Ultimately, someone needs to hold power, and someone needs to take the lead, so there's no way to resolve the inevitable concentration and division of power.

At the highest levels of power, only mutual checks and balances and the development of rule by man can maintain a balance.

The loss of interests by those who lost power in Western Capital City is a manifestation of this balance, forcing members of various Lineage to move forward and continue to be leaders, or risk being kicked out of Western Capital City.

The law does not protect the property of these disgraced individuals.

Using Wang Jiangtao's excuse about the damage to the villa, and leveraging Ren Yisheng's current strength and past connections, an asset involving huge profits was distributed without the Wang Household's presence.

"We still need to get back to work!"

When Zhang Xuezhou summarized his experience, he found that it was practically useless.

He had no talent Ren Yisheng, nor was he involved in any grudges or feuds Ren Yisheng.

Western Capital City can insert someone who was previously kicked out, allowing them to begin their formal return, but Western Capital City will not inexplicably insert a Lineage that wants to divide up the rights.

Any Lineage that tries to establish itself in Western Capital City will not only face attacks from one family, but will also face rejection from an entire interest group.

Even reaching the Fifth Sequence or Sixth Sequence sequence is of no use; only those in the Seventh Sequence Holder may have some bargaining power.

"Unless one possesses the Eighth Sequence, perhaps only then can the major Lineage willingly relinquish their interests and unanimously welcome them!"

Zhang Xuezhou made a rough estimate and ultimately decided that doing his job honestly was the best option.

While it's true that without high compensation, it's difficult for people to advance quickly, but without sufficient contributions, why should one expect high compensation?

He sighed repeatedly, feeling that he had simply seized the opportunity to gain some advantage.

When Ren Anran appeared in front of the sealed container of the medical device, Zhang Xuezhou immediately closed his eyes.

"Brother Xuezhou, you're awesome!"

Ren Anran's high-pitched, delicate voice reached Zhang Xuezhou, who felt a surge in his chest and had to open his closed eyes.

"I recommend an outstanding young man to you, his name is Zuo Teng. He's young, he's amazing, and he's handsome. Even plastic surgery couldn't give me a face like his. I think only someone like Zuo Teng can start a perfect, sweet love story with you..."

"Zuo Teng, you bastard, get over here right now!"

Before Zhang Xuezhou could finish his recommendation, Ren Anran had already reached out and pinched Zuo Teng's ear, pulling him close to Zhang Xuezhou's face.

"Tell me, the woman you will marry in the future is not a decision you make yourself, but a decision made by your Lineage. There is no possibility of love between you and me, let alone the possibility of having a partner," Ren Anran said.

"Sister An Ran is right!"

Zuo Teng's face showed a mixture of pain and pleasure, which sent a chill down Zhang Xuezhou.

"Don't doubt that there's anything between me and Zuo Teng," Ren Anran explained. "If you're not satisfied, I can sever all ties with Zuo Teng right now."

"Sister An Ran, please, what does your relationship have to do with me?" Zuo Teng grumbled, "I'm innocent."

Seeing the Ren Household rising in status, Zuo Teng felt that if he were to be kicked aside because of this flirting, he would be facing an unforeseen and unavoidable disaster in his life.

"You big idiot, wouldn't it be better to be with a rich woman and have a good meal together?"

Thinking of all the trouble that might arise, Zuo Teng had no choice but to begin earnestly persuading Zhang Xuezhou.

"Look at your family, you have no money, no manpower, and it's so difficult for you to stand out. If you just open your mind a little, you can avoid a lot of detours," Zuo Teng earnestly advised. "Listen to your brother, have a relationship with Sister An Ran. That's better than ten years of hard work."

"Am I already of the 'Grandma' generation?" Ren Anran asked wistfully.

"It's not a matter of 'grandmother's generation,' it's a matter of wealth. An Ran, you're a poor girl; even buying a coffin emptied your family's savings!"

Seeing the members of the Sequence Committee leave, Ren Wuyang breathed a sigh of relief. After pondering many related matters, he finally came over to correct the problem at the very end.

"Then my problem is that I'm stupid," Zhang Xuezhou replied.

"Can you guys just let me get to the point?"

Zuo Teng watched the three of them spouting nonsense and realized that his advice was completely useless.

"Brother, I suggest you and my sister get to know each other better. What if you find her agreeable in the future?" Ren Wuyang advised. "What if she forgets you in the future? Either way, you'll have a bright future!"

"Something's not right," Zhang Xuezhou pondered. "What if I take a liking to her, and then your sister forgets about me? Wouldn't I be in a terrible situation?"

"That's very possible!"

Zuo Teng added a sentence in front of the medical tank's viewing window, before being pushed away by Ren Anran.

"My forgetfulness isn't a disease; it's just that my brain has too much memory to handle, forcing me to temporarily forget some unimportant information," Ren Anran said earnestly. "As long as I keep striving, I'm sure... I'm sure... Brother, how did we end up at the hospital?"

Ren Anran seemed to have triggered something. After speaking for only a few seconds, a blank look flashed across her eyes before she asked Ren Wuyang.

"I... we've come to visit a friend!"

Ren Wuyang was clearly very familiar with Ren Anran 'Ren Anran condition and noticed her unusual behavior very quickly.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Zuo Teng's anxious heart was finally at ease.

"I think I forgot something. What's the date on the calendar now?"

Ren Anran glanced at Ren Wuyang, then at the unfamiliar face of Zuo Teng, and finally at the pair of darting eyes inside the medical jar.

She felt that her brain seemed to have forgotten some important information when triggering a certain protective mechanism, which made her keep thinking about it.

Having mastered the Mental Strengthening Chapter, Ren Anran became extremely adept at understanding psychological changes.

However, precisely because of this ability, she encountered too much content that shouldn't have been hers in the early stages, which caused conflicts in her memory.

She needs to solidify important memories, while unimportant memories can obviously be forgotten or even deleted.

But which memories she needs to solidify and which she needs to delete requires repeated verification over time, rather than something she can simply remember or forget at will.

Right now, Ren Anran feels that she has forgotten some things she shouldn't have forgotten.
