Chapter 205: Fallout

Host, your mother is back, Ji Xiaoling's adoption hopes are gone. Ji Shouguo has fallen out with Ji Tianlin, the Ji family will eventually split. Now, Ji Shouguo can still rely on his participation in research to have the senior officer arrange a good marriage for Ji Xiaoling. Once Ji Shouguo is useless and the family splits, she will have to rely on her parents.

The head of the Ji family and his household have no real ability; otherwise Ji Xiaoling wouldn't keep thinking about being adopted under Ji Tianlin and Xu Mingyue. The wealth and connections of Ji Tianlin and Xu Mingyue are enough to let Ji Xiaoling live a carefree good life for a lifetime.

Qi Yinghao thinks it's a good marriage?

A scumbag! Did Ji Xiaoling dumb down? She actually chose him!

Among those with status and willing to marry her, Qi Yinghao is the most handsome and highest‑ranking.

Ji Xiaoling wants to pick, but Ji Shouguo's contribution to the experiment is low. The senior officer can't arrange a marriage for Ji Xiaoling as if it were his own child. He did his best, selecting a few good young men and placing them on a candidate list. Yet Ji Xiaoling didn't like any of them, despising their low status and thin family background.

This time she can marry into the Qi family, and it's thanks to the Power Card we gave Ji Shouguo! This time we really lost out!

Wulongcha didn't expect to have this effect! Now that Ji Xiaoling married into the Qi family, she might think of ways to deal with Ji Yan and the Su family.

Ugh, Ji Shouguo really dotes on his good granddaughter, but I wonder how Grandfather feels? My mother still hasn't received any gift or word from Ji Shouguo! All of Grandfather's partners have sent gifts, yet he only cares about Ji Xiaoling's marriage? It makes me so angry!

Su Xi sent this heartfelt message to Ji Tianlin.

Ji Tianlin, upon receiving the message: … he actually has an idea!

"Dad, are you crazy?"

She doesn't like Grandfather, and that's fine as long as appearances are kept!

Ji Tianlin rubbed his hands, "Should we report Su Yu's case to the state? Her cards and that system are quite useful!"

Ji Yan immediately scooped Su Yu into her arms.

Xu Mingyue also looked at Ji Tianlin in shock; she hadn't expected him to have such a thought. She had thought that, like her, Ji Tianlin wanted Jia Jia, which is why he came to see her!!

Su Yu finished speaking and reached out toward Ji Yan.

Su Yu plunged straight into Xu Mingyue's embrace, cheerfully saying, "Grandma, I miss you so much!"

Su Yu spent the whole day doing assignments with Liang Yan at the company, then returned home and saw Ji Tianlin and Xu Mingyue, who hadn't come over for several days.

Su Yu happily wiggled her little feet! She understands Mom's meaning!

Su Yu may have a temper, but she must also have basic courtesy. When meeting elders, regardless of whether she likes them, she must greet them. She cannot act on impulse and hand over her leverage to others.

"Alright! Hehe!"

"Hey, baby, I miss you so much too!"

Ji Tianlin: The way the daughter is being taught seems a bit off?

Ji Yan, beside him, reminded Su Yu, "Xiao Yu, did you forget to call Grandfather?"

Su Yu turned her head, her voice like a runner after eight hundred meters, breathless and weak, "Good evening, Grandfather!"

Ji Tianlin heard Su Xi mention other cards: the Truth Card can be used in interrogations, the Rain Card can alleviate droughts. No matter what card it is, it is useful before the entire nation. Overall, eleven thousand per card is indeed a bit pricey, but the state has many professionals who can make those cards yield maximum value!

And Su Yu's system is even more coveted—artificial intelligence! With its help, their country's technology should soar, becoming a tech superpower!

After the family finished dinner, Ji Yan walked and played with Su Yu, then coaxed her to sleep before going up to the third‑floor study.

"Dad, you may speak now!"

Mom is the best!

"Baby, you're so well‑behaved; we must always be polite, never let anyone catch a lever!"

"She needs money to draw cards; the state has plenty of money and can let her draw! The Power Card works well! Her system can also serve the state's cyber security! The state won't shortchange her!"

Su Yu will become a great contributor to the nation's development!

"Impossible!

The state won't shortchange her, but the ambitious will!

How can you guarantee my daughter won't get hurt in the power struggles?

She's only three years old!

If the system leaves Xiao Yu because of our actions, what will she do?

Can someone who once had a system but lost it still live an ordinary life? Or would they believe that a person who possessed a system and various special cards says the system and cards have vanished?

They will only doubt and keep probing! Whether Su Yu lies flat and lets others attack, dies once, or resists, no one will believe she lacks a system. They will only speculate whether Su Yu has assumed a different identity in this world?

Ji Yan will never let her daughter fall into such an awkward situation!

"Aren't we still here?"

Ji Tianlin can assure that he will often visit Su Yu! Moreover, this test requires someone who can read inner thoughts.

"You? Am I insane? To send one's own daughter into darkness and then drain the whole family's strength to rescue her!"

"That's not darkness!"

"That is!"

"My daughter barely pulled me out of the dark world, and you want to send my daughter back in! Do I owe you from a past life?!"

Ji Yan slammed the door in anger and left.

Inside, Yang Zhichun, Su Xi, Su Yi, and Xu Mingyue sat there with dark faces.

Ji Tianlin glanced at their expressions, his voice low, "If she enters the state, it will be good for everyone!"

She can provide cards and the system; the state will meet her reasonable demands. She will receive the best care, and the state will equip her with a top‑tier teaching team. Ji Yan will become the brightest star, the Su family can become the state's preferred partner, and his tech company can take off on the spot with the system's guidance!

Clearly a decision good for everyone, why is the daughter reacting so strongly?

"As long as she's safe, the Su family's money is already sufficient!"

Yang Zhichun protects the Su family for the sake of two grandsons. Back then, if the Su family were gone, Su Yi would have certainly died!

These days are already good! Their family doesn't need to sell their granddaughter to get by!

Su Xi and Su Yi both nodded.

"Mr. Ji, don't forget, the Yang family can abandon their own children for the sake of inheritance, using them as tools, even though they are biological! What do you use to guarantee that after Su Yu's special abilities are made public, she won't be manipulated as a tool? She's only three years old!"

Su Xi has always raised Su Yu as his daughter. He can't bear to let Su Yu gamble with the countless wounded hearts of people!

Yes, she indeed has the ability!

Her system is also doing good deeds!

But if her system really wanted to be a state machine, why not bind directly to the head of state? Instead it chose this somewhat clever three‑year‑old brat?

She is three yet very sensible; if she were willing, she wouldn't have gone to all sorts of lengths to find him, but would have gone straight after the state!

Her system can obtain his phone number and schedule, so it can naturally get the phone numbers and schedules of people with even higher status!

"When you lost Jia Jia, did you think the same? Will your mother, out of guilt, speak for me? I want to find the child; we can't rely only on the Xu family, so we won't divorce? The child was lost, and we also talked about adoption then; how much suspicion should fall on your older brother's family? Jia Jia was lost in the Ji family, and all the problems you faced are gone!"

Xu Mingyue's tears surged like a spring!

Her Jia Jia has suffered for more than twenty years!

Ji Tianlin hurriedly explained, "No, I just had this thought; if you think I was wrong, stop crying!"

"Is this when you think you're wrong? Aren't you also at fault?"

Ji Tianlin fell silent.

"Your offering is your business; don't involve my Jia Jia and Xiao Yu. Even if you pour your life into it, I won't say a single 'no'!"

But Jia Jia and Xiao Yu don't belong to you!

They are human!

On what grounds do you demand they sacrifice for your will?

Prove your loyalty by using your own life as proof! Don't touch my Jia Jia and Xiao Yu!

Xu Mingyue has regretted for so many years! How could she have been so blind to marry Ji Tianlin!

Su Yi, who was listening, now began to understand why Su Yu hates him. If back then he hadn't had the accident, or had told his grandmother and older brother, Yan Yan would have married him, and Yan Yan and Su Yu would have lived carefree normal lives at home. Yan Yan wouldn't have been active in the entertainment circle, and Ji Xiaoling wouldn't have known Yan Yan's existence; the family's greatest wish might have been to wake him up!

Su Yu will become the youngest, most brilliant heir!

Perhaps if it develops that way, Ji Yan will never discover her identity in her whole life. Ji Tianlin also has no right to be here thinking of sending his daughter to die!

"If the system leaves Su Yu, Su Yu's suicide would prove that she truly no longer has the system and cards. Would those who are reluctant to give up the system's abilities let me and Yan Yan be reborn? You are unwilling to accept that you ruined the first half of your daughter's life, and now you want to ruin her second half as well, right?"

Su Yi controlled the smart wheelchair and left, while Su Xi went back to retrieve the original paper documents and USB drive that investigated Ji Yan.

"Back then, to completely break with the adoptive parents, the younger brother and sister also took part in the investigation, so our data is more detailed than what was disclosed online.

The younger sibling is tired enough. The recognition banquet can be skipped; she doesn't have to be the Ji family heiress. The half‑life she owes you can be repaid in another way, but it cannot be Xiao Yu. Please don't ruin our family's life!"

Xu Mingyue, trembling, opened the paper documents. She read halfway, then a surge of tears obscured her entire vision. She slammed the file onto Ji Tianlin, "Bastard! I want a divorce! Divorce!"

Xu Mingyue left, and Ji Tianlin chased after, clutching the documents and USB drive.

Su Xi sighed; it seemed he was preparing a route to flee abroad. Who could have imagined that what they thought was an in‑law turned out to be an enemy!

……

"Mom, what's wrong with Dad?"

【My whole body broke out in goosebumps!】

Su Yi, who was about to get sentimental, couldn't muster any sentiment!

He and Su Yu are just naturally at odds! He deserves to be scolded!

Su Yu saw Su Yi again control the electric wheelchair and leave, her mind clouded, "What a mess! So weird! Could his eyes have just had a problem? Then he needs to see a doctor!"

"Eat nicely, and later Huo Huo and Can Can will come over to play!"

"Huh? Then Guoguo sister won't also come, right?"

【I have to get Can Can to bring her storybook over ahead of time, otherwise if I have to tell the whole story by myself, my throat will become hoarse!】

Su Xi, eating breakfast nearby, heard this sentiment and almost couldn't hold back!

You call that telling a story?

You call that nonsense!

You hold the storybook just to save time picking names, right?

Even Water Margin can be turned by you into a story of one hundred and eight people defending their rights; shouldn't we praise your business mind?
