11: Rao Shiyun's closeness and Gu Wanzhou's guilt

Liu Yan was older, already 50 years old.

At this moment, he looked at Li Zhiyan with eyes full of admiration; a young man who understood computers, only 18 years old, was truly rare.

"Mr. Liu, what's going on?"

"You're the boss of such a big company; how could an 18-year-old kid help you?"

At this moment, a big question mark appeared in Rao Shiyun's mind.

Li Zhiyan, this 18-year-old kid, probably only thought of 'a small horse pulling a big cart'; how could he help Liu Yan solve his company's problems?

Everyone's gaze fell on Li Zhiyan.

Being stared at by everyone, Li Zhiyan was truly a bit unaccustomed; after all, he had always been mediocre and easily overlooked.

Except for confessing to Yu Sisi, which made him a laughingstock among his classmates for many years.

The rest of the time, his life was completely transparent.

Luckily, he had the system; although it was a lazy system, it still gave this lazy person the ability to turn his life around.

At the same time, it also gave him the possibility of being with these mature aunts.

A small horse pulling a big cart, he truly looked forward to it.

...

Gu Wanzhou was slightly stunned; she felt that she might have misunderstood Li Zhiyan.

Liu Yan was a serious and stern person; he would never joke like that.

That meant what Li Zhiyan said about working on some projects was true.

But she had thought he used despicable means to find out her whereabouts and deliberately pretended to be fated to meet her.

Immediately, Gu Wanzhou thought of Li Zhiyan's dejected look just now.

It must have been because of her cold attitude that he was so disappointed and sad.

But she had still thought he was faking pity.

Thinking of Li Zhiyan from a single-parent family being misunderstood by her here, Gu Wanzhou felt a sourness in her heart, and a feeling of sadness involuntarily arose.

What had she done? This child had always been so pitiful and sincere.

But she had suspected him of being cunning, only wanting a small horse pulling a big cart.

She truly felt very sorry for him.

...

Liu Yan said admiringly, "Although it might sound a bit unbelievable."

"But it's really true."

"My company's internal system stores a lot of data."

"Normally, employees need to use the internal system for their work, but some time ago, this system frequently had bugs, making it unusable. I found the original programmer, and he said the code was lost and couldn't be fixed."

"Many professionals were hired, but they couldn't fix the system."

"If this continued, my company would truly be in big trouble."

"But thankfully, I met this kid."

"This kid, in less than three days, solved a computer problem that a bunch of people couldn't fix!"

"Isn't that amazing? This fifty thousand yuan is his reward from me."

"I wish I had such an excellent son."

"This is truly remarkable, just with this skill alone."

"He can find a high-paying job in the future."

Everyone's gaze fell on Li Zhiyan.

Zhang Hongbin's face became a bit unnatural; at 18, he could earn fifty thousand yuan and solve problems that so many professionals couldn't.

In a way, this kid was a genius.

Would he really be able to impress Gu Wanzhou someday?

Although Gu Wanzhou had high standards, this kid was young, and if he was talented, then it was uncertain.

"Li Zhiyan, Auntie truly didn't expect you to be a computer genius!"

Rao Shiyun had previously been teasing Li Zhiyan.

But this time, she was truly scrutinizing the young child in front of her.

He was truly remarkable! At 18, he could earn fifty thousand yuan. Then she looked at her own son, Liu Zifeng.

Because of his good family conditions, he spent all day thinking about getting some pocket money to spend at nightclubs and KTVs.

As for computers? He only knew how to play games on the computer and couldn't even use Excel.

Let alone helping others solve company problems.

It truly showed that comparing people was deadly, and comparing goods was for discarding.

The difference was truly too great; if she had a son as excellent as Li Zhiyan, that would be wonderful.

Li Zhiyan sat beside Gu Wanzhou, and he clearly felt that Gu Wanzhou's gaze towards him had softened a lot.

Yu Sisi's hands were tightly clasped, and a hint of regret appeared in her heart.

Although Li Zhiyan's appearance and height were ordinary.

But he had talent!

At 18, he already knew such advanced computer programming; he might have a boundless future.

But now, her relationship with Li Zhiyan was completely strained, with basically no possibility of repair.

...

Subsequently, Rao Shiyun sat in front of Li Zhiyan.

She actively took Li Zhiyan's hand.

A smooth and slippery sensation came, and thinking that this was Liu Zifeng's biological mother.

Li Zhiyan felt a strange sense of retaliatory pleasure.

"Kid, tell Auntie."

"How did you learn your computer skills? Did you pay for classes?"

When Liu Zifeng saw his biological mother being so close to Li Zhiyan, he felt a very uncomfortable sensation.

It felt as if his mother's love had been snatched away by Li Zhiyan.

The key was that this person was also his love rival and an enemy he had fought with.

But because of his fear of his mother, he dared not say anything, so he could only turn his head away, unable to bear seeing his biological mother being intimate with Li Zhiyan.

When Rao Shiyun held Li Zhiyan's hand, Gu Wanzhou, who was in the midst of guilt, felt a bit uneasy.

Why was this woman so flirty? Didn't she know there was a difference between men and women?

Although she was 24 years older than Li Zhiyan, a small horse could still pull a big cart.

Thinking about it, Gu Wanzhou's face started to flush again.

Ever since she talked about Oedipus with Li Zhiyan last time, and he coined the term 'a small horse pulling a big cart'.

She would think of certain scenes whenever she saw him.

However, she really needed to get closer to this child.

He was already pitiful enough, lacking a parent's love from a single-parent family, and now he was misunderstood and alienated by her. He must be very sad in his heart.

"No, our family is poor, we can't afford classes, Aunt Rao. I learned computer programming by myself when I had nothing to do, because I'm quite interested in it."

"Coincidentally, I saw on the internet that Mr. Liu's company had a problem, so I tried it, and I didn't expect to actually solve it. It was just good luck."

Li Zhiyan's words made everyone stunned again.

Computer programming is something that even university students who take specialized classes don't necessarily learn well.

Li Zhiyan was self-taught and could solve problems that even professionals couldn't.

He was a true genius!

"Li Zhiyan, you're truly amazing."

Rao Shiyun's other hand also rested on Li Zhiyan's, enveloping Li Zhiyan's hand.

Looking at Rao Shiyun's bosom in front of him.

Li Zhiyan suddenly remembered that he seemed to have been weaned many years ago.
