"I'm telling you, when my brother-in-law and my eldest sister met, he was already tens of billions in debt. But my sister still married my brother-in-law without hesitation. It was with my sister's help that my brother-in-law was able to gradually repay his debts. It's a shame my sister had bad luck; if it were me, it would be different. I'm so strong, I'd surely live to be a hundred!" In class, a girl was boasting to her classmates.
"Classmate Leng Ting, please moderate yourself. This is a classroom, not your home!" the teacher reprimanded with a frown. Leng Ting grinned. Although she immediately fell silent, her smile-yet-not-smile expression clearly showed she didn't take the teacher seriously.
"You stand up and take class!" the teacher said angrily. Leng Ting was straightforward; she stood for the entire class, but her expression remained defiant, making the teacher very uncomfortable. Back in the office, she complained to her colleagues that this student was too difficult to handle.
"You're new here, don't get angry, and don't take it to heart with this child. After all, this child's head isn't quite right!" a teacher advised.
"Her head isn't right? Impossible. I see her expressions and demeanor are very lively. When classmates speak, she's animated, and her grades are among the top in the class. She doesn't seem like her head isn't right at all!" the new teacher asked in surprise.
"Alas, she looks quite normal, but she has delusional disorder. She always says Huang He is her brother-in-law and that she will be a billionaire in the future, so she doesn't need to study. How can her head be considered normal?" the teacher sighed.
"Huang He? You mean the richest man, Huang He, who's been in the newspapers lately?" the new teacher exclaimed, then couldn't help but nod. "Then it seems she is indeed a bit abnormal. I'll be more tolerant with her in the future."
These teachers, of course, didn't know that their student, whom they considered to have a problem with her head, would, after school, travel several blocks and, under the protection of several professional bodyguards, board a seemingly ordinary urban SUV. This SUV then drove directly into a large villa area within the Jiangnan Industrial Park.
Ever since the Jiangnan Industrial Park was fully completed, Mr. Wang and his mother-in-law had moved into villas built within the park.
The villa had a total of 5 floors, 9 rooms inside, an elevator, and an indoor swimming pool, making it a rather luxurious residence.
However, such villas were not unique within the industrial park. There were 49 villas of the same specifications, all belonging to Huang He.
It was said that the interior layouts of all 49 villas were identical, brightly lit day and night, with dedicated passages connecting each villa, allowing access to any of them in just three minutes.
Mr. Huang and his family would randomly choose one of these villas to stay in, changing it daily.
The purpose of doing this was quite obvious: to ensure his safety. This way, even if the Navy SEALs arrived, they wouldn't be able to find Huang He for a while. If any one villa were infiltrated, Huang He could immediately retreat and escape, making it extremely safe.
Indeed, Huang He went to great lengths for his own safety and that of his family. Although China is the safest country in the world, where it's almost impossible to pose a threat to his life, being cautious would never hurt.
After all, even the son of Old Man Li almost lost his life.
Originally, Leng Zhiting was studying in the capital, where she had spent almost three years and completed her entire junior high education.
However, this tomboy led a group of unruly children and trespassed into a place considered a national secret.
Fortunately, she was unharmed, but the school no longer welcomed Leng Zhiting to continue her studies there. Those important figures also worried their children might be led astray by Leng Zhiting.
Although Leng Zhiting was Huang's sister-in-law, Huang was not yet the richest man at that time, and his sister-in-law wasn't considered a particularly important identity. Therefore, the school expelled Leng Zhiting.
Furthermore, at that time, the country had just introduced policies to curb college entrance examination immigration, requiring all candidates to take the exam locally. So, Huang decided to let Leng Zhiting return to Wenzhou to study.
As for whether she could get into a good university, was that important for Leng Zhiting?
So, her mother-in-law took Leng Zhiting and Leng Zhiyuan back to Wenzhou to study. However, this time, for safety reasons, both enrolled under hidden identities.
Although the assertive Leng Zhiting told everyone on her first day of school that her brother-in-law was Huang He, seeing that Leng Zhiting's pocket money never exceeded 10 yuan and her clothing and daily expenses were very ordinary, and that the person who attended parent-teacher meetings with Leng Zhiting was a middle-aged woman with gray hair, no one believed Leng Zhiting's words or her identity. This greatly frustrated Leng Zhiting.
When Leng Zhiting got home by car, she saw a table full of dishes and her younger sister, Leng Zhiyuan, already eating.
Leng Zhiyuan was no longer the little kindergartner with a runny nose she had met the first time.
Leng Zhiyuan was now a fifth-grader and would be going to junior high in a year.
However, Leng Zhiyuan's figure remained very petite, being the smallest in her class. Unlike her sister, who went around the school promoting that her brother-in-law was Huang He, Leng Zhiyuan never mentioned Huang He's name at school, so no one still knew that Leng Zhiyuan's brother-in-law was Huang He.
"Your teacher called me again today, saying you still like to talk during class. Not only are your own studies poor, but you also affect other students. Leng Zhiting, don't you feel any shame?" her mother-in-law scolded indignantly.
"Mom, the person I was talking to was the last in the entire class. Their score was already in the single digits. How could I affect them? Did I lower their score by 0.001 points on the exam?" Leng Zhiting said carelessly.
"You're full of energy when talking about others, but are you all that great yourself? Can you get into a good university with your scores?" Hearing Leng Zhiting dare to retort, her mother-in-law became even more displeased.
"Why wouldn't I? At least I can get into Wenzhou University. I don't believe brother-in-law wouldn't take me!" Leng Zhiting pouted.
"Are you trying to infuriate me to death? Why can't you have higher aspirations?" her mother-in-law was furious.
"Mom, what higher aspirations do you want? Wenzhou University is already a second-tier university. My older sisters' highest academic achievement is also a second-tier university. Do you expect me to get into a first-tier university with my grades?"
"Besides, even if I could get into a first-tier university, I wouldn't go. You know, if I were an ordinary person, even if I got into Tsinghua or Peking University, I'd only get seven or eight thousand yuan a month at most after graduation. If I graduate from Wenzhou University... no, if I'm studying at university, I can earn seven or eight thousand yuan every month."
"Also, you read in that magazine that they surveyed students from all first-tier universities, and found that the most desired employers after graduation were Jiangnan Group. Even civil service wasn't as attractive as Jiangnan Group. But Jiangnan Group hires so few people. Now, even for ordinary lathe operators in direct workshops, a first-tier university degree is required. How is it better to graduate from Wenzhou University and directly join Jiangnan Group!" Leng Zhiting argued.
"You... if that's the case, then why are you even studying? I'll just call your brother-in-law and have him arrange for you to work in the factory, paying you 10,000 yuan a month!" her mother-in-law said with a laugh of extreme anger.
"Mom, don't you think what you're saying is quite laughable?" Leng Zhiting grinned. "We both know better than anyone that diplomas are meaningless to us anymore. After all, a higher diploma is just a stepping stone to a job, and my brother-in-law directly told me that when I'm willing to work, he'll give me a company worth tens of millions to practice with, to improve my abilities through practice. It doesn't matter if it's a first-tier, second-tier, Tsinghua, or Peking University; they are all meaningless to me now. Why do you still bother managing my studies and pursuing such meaningless things? Can't you let me invest my experience and time in things I love more?"
"You little rascal, how dare you say that? Aren't you just relying on your brother-in-law's wealth? Who else can talk like you?" Her mother-in-law was furious.
"But I'm just not an ordinary person. I'm lucky enough to be born to you, and then to have a brother-in-law who is the world's richest man. This is my destiny, and I've decided to accept it!" Leng Zhiting said with a smile, making her mother-in-law even more exasperated.
"Then your entire life will turn into a pile of garbage, and you'll become one of those trashy rich second-generations from TV shows, living a trashy life, and never becoming useful to society!" her mother-in-law screamed, while Leng Zhiting maintained her indifferent expression.
Just as the mother and daughter were about to launch into a more intense argument, Leng Zhiyuan, who had been quietly eating, suddenly sighed, "Sister, don't make Mom angry anymore. Why don't you just tell Mom now that you've enlisted in the army?"
"You little punk, what are you talking about?" Leng Zhiting was startled and immediately agitated. Her mother-in-law, however, was stunned. After a while, she looked at her daughter and said, "Zhiyuan, what are you saying? You said your sister enlisted?"
"Sister enlisted, and she's going to be a pilot!" Leng Zhiyuan said expressionlessly. "Last week, a unit came to our school to recruit pilots. The school organized us volunteers to provide services, and I saw Sister stride proudly into the recruitment office as the first one. She just didn't see me, the little volunteer quietly sweeping the floor!"
Indeed, the school where Leng Zhiyuan and Leng Zhiting were studying was the largest in Wenzhou, integrating primary, middle, and high schools. Therefore, the sisters were actually attending the same school.
