Li XinYun scratched her cheek and said, “Yeah, he said the same thing to me. He said his team had developed a new software but needs the capital to push it to the market. He said he is asking me to invest in it and will profit-share with me. He also said that he would do right by me.”
Talking about this made Li XinYun angry. Her brother didn’t even get her a birthday present on her birthday and the one time that he called her was to ask her for money? And that high and mighty tone of his. He made it sound like it would be her loss if she didn’t invest in him. Was she stupid? She yelled at him over the phone and hung up on him.
“You are better off buying stocks of my company,” said Fang JunRong. For sure the stock price of her company would go up by a lot.
Li XinYun cocked her head a little and asked, “But why is Big Brother short on money? He should have more money saved up than I do.” She’d occasionally spend money on makeup or luxurious items, but her brother didn’t need any of them. Hrm, she knew that Dad had always been giving money to her brother behind her back. She was just never petty about it. Mom liked her more anyway.
Fang JunRong said, “After your father and I divorced, your father no longer had a house under his name and he didn’t have enough cash in hand. So your brother shelled out a large sum for a large mansion.”
They were not the kind who could adapt to a lesser lifestyle. Between the large mansion and the monthly salary for the servants, that about used up all of Li ShiZe’s cash.
“And they moved Wang SiXian there as well.” Fang JunRong added.
Li XinYun didn’t know about all those things. Now that she had found out, she was infuriated. Her face beet red, she said, “I am going to block his number right now!
“Ungrateful! White-eyed wolf! Unconscientious!” said Li XinYun over and over again. Then she turned to Fang JunRong and reassured her. “Don’t worry, Mom. I would not be like Big Brother.
“From now on, I no longer have a brother!” said Li XinYun determinately.
She then went on to blocking Li ShiZe’s number right in front of Fang JunRong. She thought about it some more and was still very annoyed. She unblocked him and sent a few texts over to shout at him before she blocked him one more time.
Nothing Li ShiZe did at this point could hurt Fang JunRong. She has, after all, already given up on him. There would be no disappointment if there were no hope to begin with. Fang JunRong was, nevertheless, still very happy that her daughter was on her side.
Fang JunRong still remembers this software that Li ShiZe had just developed. During the same timeframe in her previous life, she was still on good terms with Li ShiZe and had given him a lot of startup capital. Li ShiZe’s software went to market smoothly, and he made a lot of money from it. And he was also able to befriend a very talented elite IT guy.
Without her help during this lifetime and with his shortage in money, Fang JunRong was very curious to see whether Li ShiZe would still be able to achieve the same level of success as he did in her previous life.

As she was reminded by Xu WeiWei, Fang JunRong started paying attention to the variety show “The Fate of Antiques”.
Just to make sure that everything would go smoothly, she even had a word with the TV director. The TV director was an acquaintance of He JianBing plus Jiang YaGe has a certain draw so she was added to the show successfully.
The advertisement never showed Jiang YaGe’s face. It was covered up with pixels. The slogans that they used were very appealing as well.
[Million-dollar gift at first meeting. How did this girl with both looks and talent appease the elderlies?]
[Expensive gift with love behind it. There is real love among prestigious families.]
The melon-eating crowd were always curious about the lives of those in prestigious families. With the words “prestigious families” in the slogan, the number of clicks would naturally go up and up. That, on top of the part about her looks and talent, had brought out the viewers’ desire for melon-eating. “The Fate of Antiques” had always used provocative slogans to pique interest. But they rarely advertise falsely, which made the audiences even more excited.
Many started speculating who this Miss could be. Even Li XinYun made it to the list of possible individuals. After all, she had just been on the top trended search list and Li WangJin was known to be an antique fanatic. That being said, Jiang YaGe was never mentioned. Even though her status wasn’t a secret in her circle, she had never been officially introduced.
All of a sudden, the popularity of the show shot up in everybody’s speculation.
Fang JunRong, too, turned her TV on at 8 PM with anticipation.
