station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the bus from Tiannan to Zhongjing, Bai Xiaosheng sat next to the window, staring blankly outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the window, light rain began to drizzle, just like many years ago when he first came to Tiannan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was precisely because of this weather that Bai Xiaosheng spontaneously changed his plans from flying or taking the high-speed train, deciding to take a long-distance bus once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Years ago, he had taken a bus to Tiannan to study under similar weather conditions, and now years later, he was leaving Tiannan by bus in the same kind of weather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Bai Xiaosheng was preparing to head back to his hometown—Zhongjing for development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhongjing and Tiannan belong to two different provinces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhongjing is the provincial capital, more prosperous than Tiannan, and is the top performer among second-tier cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng’s home was in a county near Zhongjing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had come to Tiannan to study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something had happened during university, and Bai Xiaosheng wanted to make something of himself in Tiannan before returning home in glory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, he had more or less achieved that goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had paid off the balance for his house in Tiannan, handed over the property to Zhengdong Province to manage, and still had two million left in his bank account.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And having been newly promoted to deputy general manager, Bai Xiaosheng unlocked an amount of ten million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to say, in his supreme bank card, he now had a total of twelve million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Red Lotus, the additional amount that managers could apply for had been canceled after the upgrade, but deputy general managers could apply for another ten million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this “application amount” was different from the unlocked funds and could only be used for work, for matters related to the conglomerate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking back on the deputy general manager level system assistance, Bai Xiaosheng still found it to be a very interesting feature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Bai Xiaosheng was pondering, his phone rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The caller was his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng answered the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mom, I’m on the bus, yes, I’ll be in Zhongjing the day after tomorrow at this time,” Bai Xiaosheng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why didn’t you take a plane or the high-speed train, you child!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a long-distance bus is so dangerous!” Bai Xiaosheng’s mother couldn’t help reprimanding him, her voice filled with worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng felt a warmth in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just wanted to experience what it was like back then, don’t worry, Mom, nothing will happen!” Bai Xiaosheng laughed, “Where’s Dad?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right beside me, eavesdropping,” Mother Bai snorted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng faintly heard his father’s somewhat embarrassed and angry voice, deliberately lowered, “Who’s eavesdropping, why talk like that in front of the kid?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man had always been strict with him and shy about expressing emotions towards his son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sheng, be careful on the road,” his dad took over the phone, murmuring a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, the phone was handed back to his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s good you’re coming back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a few days, it will be your grandmother’s eighty-eighth birthday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our whole family will be there for a big family gathering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, I’ve found you another prospect for a date, come home and have a look, she’s still the granddaughter of your grandfather’s friend!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another arrangement for a blind date?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but remember Xu Fang and felt somewhat bemused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it’s Grandma’s birthday in a few days, I actually forgot about it, and the old lady is turning eighty-eight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder there’s such a big celebration!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng suddenly felt a bit annoyed that he hadn’t bought anything!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never mind, I’ll buy something when I get back to Zhongjing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of his grandmother, Bai Xiaosheng recalled how the old lady, in her eighties, was still full of vigor, always doting on him since he was a child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in recent years, she had become a little hard of hearing and her eyes were not as good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help feeling sentimental.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the thought of the entire family gathering made Bai Xiaosheng smile wryly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family was indeed quite extensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandpa had a large number of siblings, and so did his father’s generation, scattered across various places, rarely seen except once a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With so many people, it’s inevitable to have those who do well and those who don’t, leading to endless comparisons among aunts and uncles when they chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng had been compared with this person or that one since he was young and had suffered plenty of mocking and ridicule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, I’m no longer who I used to be, I’m at least a multimillionaire!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng thought of his more than ten million and smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting with his mother for a few more phrases, Bai Xiaosheng hung up the phone, suddenly feeling some regret; perhaps he really should have taken a plane or high-speed train to get back earlier and spend more time with his family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coach bus stopped for about fifteen minutes, and people kept getting on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The row of seats where Bai Xiaosheng was situated consisted of three together, and he was by the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Bai Xiaosheng hung up the phone, as he looked up, he saw a girl wearing a sports shirt, a baseball cap, and a ponytail walking toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, she was a sporty beauty with a great figure, wearing shorts, her white thighs straight, and white sneakers on her feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face was delicate and fair, her looks could be considered exceptional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, for Bai Xiaosheng, having seen Wei Xuelian, Wei Moran, and Han Shuying, each one of them top beauties, this girl still fell short in comparison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, alright, I’m on the bus now, oh yes, I know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could I, Yang Qian’er, lie to you?” The beauty chatted cheerfully using her earphones, and when she looked up, her gaze met Bai Xiaosheng’s for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng was appraising the girl, when she slightly frowned and imperceptibly gave him a displeased look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, okay, I won’t chat anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, this great beauty might inadvertently have her ‘tofu eaten’ by someone.” Yang Qian’er hung up the phone and looked for her seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her seat was next to Bai Xiaosheng, in the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er couldn’t help but frown; she wanted the window seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng had already turned his gaze away, looking at the fine raindrops on the bus window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er observed Bai Xiaosheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From head to toe, Bai Xiaosheng was probably not worth 500 yuan in total; even his clothes appeared washed out to the point of turning white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man, he really is doing poorly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er shook her head slightly; on her own, just her baseball cap cost 500 yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After placing her bag down, as she was about to sit, her eyes twinkled, and she smiled at Bai Xiaosheng, saying, “Hey, hello there.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng looked over in surprise, pointed to his own nose to confirm she was addressing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’d like to sit by the window, could you switch places with me?” Yang Qian’er asked with a sweet smile and soft voice, while inwardly looking down on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You country bumpkin, I’m giving you a nice face, so hurry up and switch with me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m sorry, but I also like the window seat,” Bai Xiaosheng straightforwardly shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er pleaded a few more times, but Bai Xiaosheng was unmoved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er was annoyed, cursing inwardly: He looks just like a single dog, with no intention of showing pity or cherishing beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You deserve to be single!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll give you 200 yuan to buy your seat, that should be enough, right?” said Yang Qian’er as she actually took out 200 yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng glanced at her and, without uttering a word, continued to look out the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er felt belittled and was extremely irritated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss, could you please move a bit?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone behind Yang Qian’er urged, so she could only sit down huffily, shooting Bai Xiaosheng a fierce glare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More and more people filled the bus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to Yang Qian’er sat a young man, refined and elegant, wearing gold-rimmed glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he accidentally touched Yang Qian’er, he apologized very politely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qian’er’s impression of him improved greatly while she couldn’t help but throw another glare at Bai Xiaosheng, contemptuously thinking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re both men, of similar ages, but look at the comparison, he’s got looks and manners, and importantly, he has money, while you have a dim future!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Yang Qian’er couldn’t help but revel in a sense of satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>",1446,"2026-06-05T17:42:23.583Z",1,"novelbin.me","adaf0fce0f0755a938f509c39247eb8f38781a0c9936409c5bd672285eb6ab06","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-215","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-213",2500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finheritance-of-two-trillion-cover.jpg"]
