The sun didn't have day and night, but the earth had day and night. When Song Ying drove to pick him up, the sun was still there, but the earth was about to turn to the dark side.
People always thought that the sun above their heads was moving, rising from one side and setting from the other, moving across the blue sky, but few people realized that what was really moving was themselves, not the sun.
For the same reason, people often felt that others were getting closer to them or distancing themselves from them, because others were always changing and always moving. Few people would think that the one who was really changing and moving was still themselves, not others.
Only a very small number of smart and intelligent people who knew how to introspect themselves could get rid of the shackles of the earth's inertial frame of reference, jump out of the psychological world where they felt good about themselves, and first find the problem from themselves.
Unfortunately, Chu Yunsheng did not belong to this group. He was a person who felt good about himself. Like most people under the sun, including some bad people who were defined by law and morality, he felt that his heart was very good, at least not bad. He could always magically remember all the good things that he had done, and he could talk about them for three days and three nights. Even the details were vivid and lifelike, but he deliberately forgot those bad things. If he really couldn't forget them, he could also find enough excuses to comfort himself and persuade others.
Under normal circumstances, if one couldn't forget or comfort himself, he would still feel guilty and couldn't let others know about it. Then, he would wait until he had the ability to make up for it. Otherwise, he would feel uneasy. If he didn't even have the chance to make up for it, he would think of praying to the gods and doing some charity. Thus, there was the saying of "eliminating karma". After that, he would feel at ease.
As for what he couldn't convince others, in today's era, no one really took it seriously. I want to be calm, but I can't stop other people's mouths, so I can say whatever I want, what does it have to do with me?
Didn't the leader also say that an independent personality was not easy to understand?
Chu Yunsheng agreed with this concept very much. Previously, when he told others that there would be a big change on December 28th, it caused a lot of controversy, and many people in the company thought that his brain was damaged. Now, with Yu Xiaohai's resignation, he once again became the focus of attention. At the same time, when the beam of silver light flew through the four spiral arms of the Milky Way galaxy, there were all kinds of gossip about Chu Yunsheng living off a rich woman, and so on. Some people ridiculed him, some were envious, some were surprised, some were shocked, and some immediately called to ask about it. Although there was no such thing, vanity would play tricks on him. In front of his old friends and colleagues, Chu Yunsheng was quiet for a while, but then the rumors became more and more serious, and all kinds of rumors were coming out, and they were getting more and more unpleasant. So his self-esteem began to play tricks again, and he gradually became angry and declared his innocence. This was called an independent personality.
In any case, when it was December 1st, his vanity and self-esteem all disappeared, replaced by a very strong sense of mission.
Chu Yunsheng didn't know where this feeling came from, but there seemed to be a voice that kept telling him that what he was going to do was very important, even more important than his life. Compared to this, everything else could be ignored!
So sitting in Song Ying's car, Chu Yunsheng learned from Song Ying that her mother probably also misunderstood the relationship between him and Song Ying. Even though Song Ying had tried to explain, the more she explained, the more it proved that she was protecting Chu Yunsheng, and the more serious the problem became. As her mother, she couldn't just watch her daughter be deceived by Chu Yunsheng, who had no future.
But Chu Yunsheng didn't care at all. Although it was indeed very dramatic, and he didn't need to go, as his sense of purpose became stronger and stronger, he realized that this was an opportunity, a very important opportunity!
From the plot of the soap opera, he could roughly guess what Song Ying's mother would say to him. It was nothing more than some dramatic content, like asking for money or not letting go of him.
With a strong sense of purpose, Chu Yunsheng naturally wouldn't plan to throw the money in front of Song Ying's mother, and then say some touching and sincere words, or say that he didn't like her daughter at all, so don't flatter yourself!
He wanted money, even if he would be laughed at and despised, he still wanted money!
Anyway, he had been targeted by the military, and his plan to secretly store money had completely failed. But the strong sense of mission told him that no matter what method he used, he must become stronger, and the sooner, the better.
He could feel that this sense of mission was full of disdain for the power of the military, as if his opponent was not these people at all, but the top existence.
Therefore, he must cut off these details as soon as possible. He didn't care about it, let alone what others thought of him. At present, only money, only money, could make him stronger quickly before the 28th day, so that he could gather enough things that he could rely on.
However, there was a deviation in his prediction. The melodramatic plots in the soap operas had seriously affected his judgment of the people in the upper class. This had nothing to do with his sense of mission. A sense of mission could not make him smarter, nor could it make him more experienced and knowledgeable. It was just a feeling of momentum.
The car drove into a private clubhouse located in an elegant environment like a garden. It seemed that a private banquet was being held here.
To be exact, it was a birthday banquet.
Chu Yunsheng didn't know any of the men and women who attended the banquet, so naturally, he didn't need to greet them.
But when they saw Song Ying, many people either took the initiative to greet her or nodded. The most common sentence they said was "Happy birthday!"
Chu Yunsheng seemed a little embarrassed. He didn't know that there was such a thing. After he received the phone call, he began to think about how to get more money and power support from Song Ying's mother. How could he expect that there would be such a thing?
Of course, no one cared about his embarrassment. From the moment he appeared, he was automatically ignored by everyone. In fact, it was not that he was ignored, it was just that his psychological state was not good. He thought that according to the "standard script", something would happen. At least, there would be a pursuer of Song Ying who would come out to give him a warning. However, nothing happened. In these people's eyes, there was not even a hint of mockery. It was as if everything was normal.
If Song Ying introduced someone to him, that person would also smile, shake hands with him, or even talk to him. He was always polite and polite. If Song Ying didn't introduce him, those people wouldn't be surprised, and they wouldn't gossip about him in private.
When he walked to the end of the lawn, Chu Yunsheng suddenly realized that it was really a cliché drama. The reason why Chu Yunsheng's friends and colleagues had such a big reaction was because they thought that if Song Ying had a relationship with Chu Yunsheng, it would be a big news. Even Chu Yunsheng also thought so, but he still took it seriously.
But the reaction of those people standing on the lawn was completely different. It was not because of their high quality or high cultivation level. Perhaps in many aspects, they were not as good as Chu Yunsheng's friends in his circle. But in the worldview of these rich and powerful people, this kind of thing was just a sesame seed or a mung bean. It was not as surprising as a weed on the lawn. After all, they were the children of rich and powerful families. No one would care if something happened between them occasionally. Maybe they had experienced it themselves.
This was the difference caused by the different perspectives of the two sides. One side was looking up, and the other side was looking down. Naturally, there was a huge difference in their thinking.
It was no wonder that those melodramatic dramas were aimed at the general public like Chu Yunsheng. It was related to the ratings. Of course, the scriptwriters would arrange whatever the general public wanted to see.
Chu Yunsheng's embarrassment finally came here. He came here full of "passion", but in the end, he didn't even make a splash. He didn't even need to think to know that Song Ying's mother would never talk to him about stupid topics like "money or people". And he was so confident that he thought everything was under his control.
Fortunately, no one knew what he was thinking. Otherwise, he would definitely lose his face!
Several beautiful girls quickly pulled Song Ying aside, and these girls began to criticize Chu Yunsheng. If it weren't for the strong sense of mission that gave him enough confidence, he would definitely feel a little guilty now.
Song Ying probably didn't want to be too special to Chu Yunsheng and cause him unnecessary pressure, so when she was cutting the cake, she deliberately didn't mention Chu Yunsheng.
After eating something alone in the corner of the garden, Chu Yunsheng began to feel a little annoyed. He seemed to be out of place with everything here. There was no topic to talk about, and there was no common point to talk about. Even one more second was torture. So he simply got up and prepared to leave. He needed to go back and continue to draw street and shop maps that could be used after the 28th day.
"You are Xiao Chu, right?"
A woman with an extraordinary temperament walked towards him. Her mature body was wrapped in a black dress, like a burning flame, and her white and silk-like skin looked even more charming and passionate.
Chu Yunsheng nodded and stopped walking. The only person who could recognize him and take the initiative to talk to him, except for Song Ying's mother, who wanted to see him, who else could it be?
He just didn't expect that she would look so young. She looked like she was in her early thirties.
"I am Yingying's mother. My surname is Su. You can call me Sussica. Sit down and talk." She pointed to the chair behind Chu Yunsheng and said with a smile.
Chu Yunsheng thought for a moment. Although all his plans before coming here were ruined, since he was here, and they had met, he might as well act according to the situation.
Moreover, the words she said just now seemed to be very easy-going and polite, but it also showed her wisdom. Before the two of them officially talked, she used the method of "calling" to express her attitude without leaving any trace, and she could also judge Chu Yunsheng's thoughts based on how Chu Yunsheng responded.
If Chu Yunsheng called her Sussica as she asked, it meant that Chu Yunsheng had accepted her attitude. If he deliberately called her auntie, it meant that Chu Yunsheng really liked her daughter.
The difference between the two decided the direction of her subsequent conversation.
But she overestimated Chu Yunsheng's IQ. How could he think of so many things in such a short time?
He was thinking about how to persuade her to increase the investment, and how to use his power to ensure that the investment would not cause any trouble. As for what to call her, it was not within the scope of his consideration.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng just sat down and didn't speak, frowned, and didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't know how to answer her question directly, Song Ying's mother once again overestimated Chu Yunsheng's IQ. She glanced at Song Ying, who was busy talking in the crowd, but from time to time glanced at them worriedly, and said with a smile,
"I heard that you have been taking care of Yingying these days. She is still a child, sorry to trouble you."
The meaning of this sentence couldn't be more obvious. She said that Song Ying was a child, hinted at Chu Yunsheng's age, and avoided the question of identity that could easily hurt people's self-esteem.
She was Song Ying's mother. As the saying goes, no one knows her daughter better than her own mother. Those guests didn't take this matter seriously, and she did think so before. But since returning home, she realized the seriousness of the problem, especially after meeting Song Ying's father.
"Fortunately, she has also helped me a lot." Chu Yunsheng understood what she meant this time. He didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore, so he simply said straightforwardly, "I'll be frank, I don't have any feelings for your daughter, so you don't have to worry about it. Me coming to see you actually has nothing to do with her."
Hearing Chu Yunsheng's words, the look in Song Ying's mother's eyes became more complicated, and gradually became serious, "thank you for your frankness, I am also willing to believe you. I know my daughter. Ever since I came back, her every word has only been about you. This has never happened before. To be honest, I am very surprised and confused. You may not have feelings for her, but she has feelings for you … "
Speaking until here, she paused for a second, as if she was organizing her words. Her brows furrowed slightly, and then she continued with a self-deprecating smile, "You may laugh at me, but I really don't know what to say. She said in front of me that she is willing to do anything for you. As long as you need it, she will do it even if she has to risk her life. Do you understand?"
Chu Yunsheng was silent for a second, and then said seriously, "I understand. I think there is probably a reason for this. It may be related to the car accident and what happened in the lab. She has a psychological shadow, but I believe that she will get better after a period of time. However, I am not taking advantage of her. I have told her, and I can tell you now, after 28 days, how much money I get, I will return it to you in double or even several times."
Song Ying's mother gently shook her head and said slowly, "I have found a psychiatrist, the best psychiatrist in the US, and he will come to Shanghai in a few days. I don't care how much money she spends for you, but the relationship between you and her is not love, it is more like a slave relationship, and she is willing to do it. This is a kind of psychological pervert. This is what I feel, this is my intuition, a woman's intuition. As a parent, if you stand in my point of view, and your daughter is willing to be someone else's slave, what would you think? "
Chu Yunsheng nodded his head and said, "I can understand, if it was me, I would never agree to it. However, I think what you said may be too serious, it is not like that. At least, I have never thought that way. I have always thought that we are in a cooperative relationship."
Song Ying's mother's eyes seemed to be able to speak, "the problem is that she thinks so."
Chu Yunsheng was speechless, "then what do you want me to do? Disappear or … "
He didn't say the latter sentence, but he had to admit that they did have the ability to erase him from this world.
Song Ying's mother nodded apologetically, took out a stack of documents from her bag, and said, "this is the passport and the plane ticket. If you want, you can board the plane and go to the US tomorrow. I only beg you as a mother, leave her for a while and cooperate with her treatment. After she recovers, if she is willing, as long as she is happy, I will not object to her doing anything. I just hope that she can have a normal mentality and equal rights, instead of the abnormal relationship based on unhealthy psychology. I hope you can understand, and you also need to explain to Yingying personally, she may only listen to you.
I have already arranged everything in the US. You can go to my company, or you can take it as a vacation. I know the military is watching you, and I also know what you are doing. When you go there, you can take over one of my companies and continue to do the same thing. You don't have to worry about the funds, I will take care of it. "
Chu Yunsheng was taken aback. He did not expect that she had prepared such a plan. His tone suddenly changed, and he said coldly, "what if I don't go?"
*****
I won't stay up late anymore. Every time I stay up late, I need to recover for a day, and it will also delay the next day's update.
