Unknown changes in the past life

Seeing that Yan Bingqin's anger was about to skyrocket, Chen Xiao immediately added, "Sister Qin, why are you fixated on me? I can't be loyal to you, so please find someone else."

Yan Bingqin's anger dissipated. "It's fine. Is it okay if I'm unilaterally loyal to you?"

"No, no, I can't repay that favor," Chen Xiao said.

There's always a gain and a loss; most things in this world require an equivalent exchange.

If he were to marry Yan Bingqin, and she offered unilateral loyalty, what would Chen Xiao, as the indebted party, have to give in return?

The result was obvious.

It would be to help her control Atlantic Capital in the future.

For Chen Xiao, this deal was very unprofitable.

Firstly, it was too troublesome and didn't align with his future plans.

Secondly, with that time, he believed he could earn an Atlantic Capital himself.

Why take a roundabout way and abandon the fundamental for the trivial?

Yan Bingqin's gaze held a hint of resentment. She puffed out her chest and said, "What? Where am I worse than others? My figure? My looks? My family background or my capabilities?"

Chen Xiao was speechless. "None of those. You're better than anyone else in every aspect, which is why I'm not worthy of you."

"..." Yan Bingqin.

Throughout her life, she had never failed at anything she set her mind to, and she had never experienced such a strong sense of defeat.

Yan Bingqin never thought that one day she would be relentlessly pursuing a man and still not be able to win him over...

This isn't supposed to be the script for my domineering CEO, a favored daughter of heaven!

Yan Bingqin suddenly adopted a pitiful expression. "Okay, not getting married is fine. Then, when I need help in the future, could you please help me?"

Chen Xiao: "..."

"Uh, how about... I give you a link?"

Yan Bingqin was taken aback. "A link? What link?"

Chen Xiao felt a wave of awkwardness, shaking off the image of a certain adult product in his mind. He said, "No, nothing. As for helping, I can't promise, because helping a big young lady like you isn't that easy."

Yan Bingqin secretly gritted her teeth. This Chen Xiao hadn't even graduated from university yet, but he was as cunning as a fox. From him, let alone hundreds of millions, she couldn't even get a single promise.

"Alright then, if you ever need help, it's okay to come to me, right?"

Chen Xiao smiled. "Okay."

But in his heart, he thought, 'Forget it, if I can avoid looking for you, I'll try my best not to.'

After dinner, Chen Xiao smoothly received the car keys. The transfer of ownership would be handled by others, so he didn't need to worry.

Under Yan Bingqin's resentful gaze, he eagerly got into the Koenigsegg and started it.

The engine roared like a waking beast, letting out a huge rumble, and then the entire car, like an arrow released from a bow, suddenly accelerated, driving out of Zijin Villa.

Yan Bingqin watched the direction where her beloved car disappeared, standing for a long time before silently turning and going back inside.

Chen Xiao was driving his new car, feeling incredibly refreshed.

This car was so new that the protective film was still on it, clearly indicating he was the first person to get inside.

The Koenigsegg roared and sped along the highway, attracting many people's attention.

A Mercedes-Benz S600 and an Audi Q7 struggled to keep up behind.

Many people wondered, 'Could it be that someone stole a sports car, and they're chasing after it?'

...

The reason Chen Xiao was driving so fast was because he was anxious.

As soon as he thought of Xi Yunru's alluring figure, his heart became restless.

So, he pressed the accelerator deeper and deeper.

Just then, the phone suddenly rang. Chen Xiao glanced at it, saw it was Zhao Xiaohong calling, and casually hung up, ignoring it.

And she, understanding, didn't call a second time.

After hanging up, Chen Xiao floored the accelerator.

The car, like an arrow released from a bow, instantly left behind all the cars following to watch the excitement, including Old Liu and Lei Yong.

What would normally be an hour on the highway, he completed in half an hour.

At this moment, the annoying phone ringtone rang again.

Chen Xiao frowned, about to hang up, when he suddenly paused. Then he drove off the main road, stopped the car, and answered the call.

"Hello? Mom."

"Hello?"

On the other end of the phone, only one word was spoken, and then there was silence.

Chen Xiao instinctively felt that something was wrong.

After his rebirth, carrying the guilt he felt for his parents in his previous life, he had actually been avoiding them internally, unsure how to face them.

Coupled with the approaching holiday and the immense wealth he had acquired,

He had planned to go home for the holiday and slowly explain, slowly change his family's life...

However, why had his mother's voice suddenly become so low?

Had something happened at home?

No, that's not right? In his previous life... during the summer vacation of his sophomore year, nothing seemed to have happened at home.

Chen Xiao recalled for a moment, then suddenly remembered many things.

In his previous life, during the summer vacation of his sophomore year, at this time, he should have been fawning over Tan Cheng. It seemed there had been a missed call from his mother.

Later, when he called back, no one answered.

During this summer vacation in his previous life, he was busy working and didn't go home.

It was also from this year onwards, for the next few years, that his family lived a relatively hard life.

At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Chen Xiao's mind.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Wang Li hesitated for a long time and said, "No, nothing. Are you coming back for the holiday?"

"Yes, I am. Your mood isn't right. What exactly happened?" Chen Xiao asked.

Wang Li had a relatively cheerful personality and usually spoke in a straightforward manner.

But today, her voice held both hesitation and struggle.

"Nothing happened. If you have nothing to do, don't come back. Your dad and I... are going out, we're not home."

Chen Xiao's brows furrowed even deeper. Both his parents worked at the factory, basically in a 996 state, with 4 days off a month, 3 of which they had to work overtime. Where would they find time to go out?

Both of them supported Chen Xiao's education, and they dared not interrupt their work easily. Something significant must have happened.

"Mom, I'm almost home. What exactly happened? If you don't tell me, I'll find out anyway!"

When Wang Li heard him say that, she could no longer hold back her emotions.

Before long, Chen Xiao heard soft sobs.

"Mom, what exactly happened?! Tell me quickly?!"

Wang Li then said, "Last month, your dad had a car accident while delivering goods for the factory. I didn't want to tell you, afraid it would affect your studies."

"But, they want to sue your dad, and neither of us understands lawsuits. The lawyer said it would affect your future..."

Chen Xiao's hand trembled slightly.

These were his parents; if something happened at home that they could handle themselves, they generally wouldn't tell their child.

Chen Xiao didn't care about the lawsuit, because as long as his parents hadn't broken any laws, there wouldn't be any problem.

"How is my dad? Is he seriously injured? Wasn't he driving for the factory? Why would they sue him?"

Wang Li said, "I don't quite understand. They said something about shared responsibility, each fixing their own car, but we have to compensate the factory for the goods, over a hundred thousand yuan. Where are we going to get that money? Your third uncle sold his house in the village and only managed to scrape together 50,000 yuan. No one else will lend us money."

Listening to his mother's helpless voice, Chen Xiao felt a pang of sadness.

Over a hundred thousand yuan had pushed his parents and relatives to such a desperate situation.

No wonder his family's life became increasingly impoverished in his previous life; it turned out such a major event had occurred without his knowledge!

Also, if his father was driving for the factory and had a traffic accident, wasn't that considered a work-related injury?

There was always a feeling that something wasn't right here. Chen Xiao didn't know much about legal matters.

However, someone did.

He first comforted Wang Li, "Mom, don't worry. I earned some money at university, enough to handle the current crisis. I'll explain when I get back. I'll be there today."

Wang Li seemed to have found her backbone. Both she and her husband were honest people and had never been involved in a lawsuit before. As soon as they heard about being sued, they panicked, which was why they reluctantly called their son.

After all, their son had gone to university, so perhaps he knew more.

As for him saying he earned some money, Wang Li didn't take it to heart. Her son was only in his sophomore year; how much could he earn from part-time work?

"Then drive carefully. Your dad and I are at the Provincial People's Hospital."

"Okay, I'll contact you when I arrive."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao's face was frosty. He immediately called Su Tang and said coldly:

"No matter what method you use, or how much it costs, whether buying airline routes or buying a plane, I need to take off within an hour and return to North Province!"
