Chapter 561 Nearly Driving a Silly Youngster Mad
Ye Shenge frowned. How could this sentence sound so uncomfortable? She reached out and twisted his ear hard.
"What? You mean I've helped you too much and it doesn't show off your abilities? You want to find your machismo on us?"
"It hurts, I didn't mean that at all. I just feel like I'm quite useless without you. I'm very grateful for my luck. Besides, I'm not the 'phoenix man' you're talking about, who benefits and then complains about others being too strong. I'm willing and I need you all. Others wouldn't be as lucky as me."
"Hmph, if I ever hear you say something like that again, I'll leave with all your support."
Zi Yisheng also pinched his wife's face. He really didn't mean it that way at all.
"You wouldn't dare. Wherever you go, I go. My ambitions and greed don't even qualify to compete with you."
"You better remember your words. I can be very ruthless when I turn cold."
His wife's stern face made Zi Yisheng laugh. Someone who had no temper at all was talking about being ruthless, when she was the one who was the softest-hearted.
"I remember. I said the wrong thing. Don't be angry, okay?"
To make up for his mistake, Zi Yisheng actually had the father-in-law, still asleep, moved to the hospital, and arranged for him and his son to share a room.
"What are you smiling about? You're the one lying here too, what a disgrace!"
"At least I walked in here myself. You were carried in by several people. I'm sure you'll be famous throughout the team within a day."
Ye Dad grumpily hit the pillow and slumped on the bed. The two grown men couldn't defeat one bratty girl.
"Hurry up and think of a solution. How can you be lying here at such a crucial moment?"
"There's no solution. The boss at home makes the final decision."
Both of them sulkily turned their backs and closed their eyes to rest, stewing in their anger since they couldn't win.
Zi Yisheng walked into the First Residence on the third day. It had already been cleaned up, with only Hong Yu Pavilion no longer existing.
Sitting at the head of the temporary conference hall, everyone was present. His appointment needed to be discussed, researched, and voted on before official documents could be issued. However, this meeting was meaningless. Not a single person present objected, and it was unanimously passed without any issues.
Was Zi Yisheng happy? Of course. No one sitting here wouldn't be happy, and this was his deepest ambition. Although he knew years ago when he returned to Mingcheng that this position would eventually be his, he hadn't expected it to be so many years earlier than anticipated.
"Thank you for your support. I hope we can work together with one heart to develop our country better and stronger in the future."
Of course, Zi Yisheng's new broom swept clean. In the following period, many people saw the true Zi Yisheng, decisive and ruthless in his actions. Of course, ruthlessness was only directed at his former opponents and those who had committed wrongs.
The battle, which had lasted for over a month, finally concluded on the evening of the third day. The father and son, who should have been in the hospital, had sneaked out on the first night.
They had both planned to run away from home after the battle ended, hide for a few months, and then expect to be missed. By then, their mistakes would be forgotten, and they would receive concern.
They spent a few more days busy counting how many of Bai Liqi's men were eliminated and how much of their weaponry and equipment was confiscated. These people were absolute followers of their master and were adept at sneak attacks. Ye Mu'en's side also suffered considerable casualties.
For the treatment and compensation of these people, the Bai family took the lead by providing a substantial sum as their greatest support for Zi Yisheng's ascension. With one leading, others followed.
Although no one wanted casualties, in such a crisis, only those on the front lines could rush forward. The tragedies that had already occurred could only be compensated for with money to ensure the well-being of the injured or their families.
Zi Yisheng once again marveled at how his wife's family were always his strongest support. With them, there were almost no complaints.
After the storm passed, the children went back to school as usual, and Ye Shenge began to study computer-related knowledge at home. The information in her spatial dimension needed to be reorganized before it could be utilized.
She couldn't start a business, but she could work. She was preparing for research and development at the pharmaceutical factory, controlling and designing raw materials for the jewelry company, and also working on computers.
Jin Yu Yuan finally appeared before Ye Shenge. His first impression was of an untamed, willful brat who hadn't grown up, a silly fellow who lacked the tempering of the world.
When he saw Ye Shenge, his eyes lit up. He even compared her to celebrities from his previous life, saying her eyes were like one or her mouth was like another. The images that flashed in his mind almost made Ye Shenge send him back to prison.
Because his mouth wouldn't stop and he was unreliable, Ye Shenge, while not sending him to prison, had effectively done so. She found a house near their home and confined him there to read books and study materials, ensuring no one would disturb him except for those who brought him food.
Furthermore, Ye Shenge required Jin Yu Tian to submit a report of his thoughts and experiences weekly. Within half a month, he was tormented into a pathetic state.
Finally, after a month, when he saw Ye Shenge again, he immediately knelt.
"Sister, my dear sister, please let me go out and look around. Even if you let me sit at the crossroads and watch people, that would be fine."
"There are many people in prison, and they're all men. Do you want to go?"
Ye Shenge sat on a stone bench in the small courtyard, slowly fanning herself, with the demeanor of a wicked landlord.
Although Jin Yu Tian had only met Ye Shenge three times, he felt that he had no communication gap with her, as if she could understand everything he said.
"Sister, don't be so heartless. I'm really going crazy from being cooped up."
"There's no room for negotiation. When you've finished organizing all the information you brought from abroad for me, and can truly understand and apply it, then I'll let you go."
"Not only will I let you go, but I'll also assign you a beautiful assistant and give you absolute authority in computer development."
"How beautiful is the beauty?"
Ye Shenge raised her hand, and Asen, standing nearby, kicked Jin Yu Tian. It turned out that the authority didn't matter as much as the beautiful woman.
"Ow, why are you hitting me? I'll do it, won't I? The materials you gave me are too basic. I don't even deign to look at them."
"I know, but the knowledge in your head is something they can't absorb all at once. So, I need you to help them grasp the basics and then advance further."
Jin Yu Yuan lazily sat to the side. He knew too well how much his acquired knowledge could advance the country's computer technology beyond foreigners.
"I understand. I need to see if they have the aptitude first. Otherwise, even if I work myself to death, I might not be able to teach them."
"Don't worry, I've already checked for you. They all have aptitude."
Ye Shenge's teasing tone made Jin Yu Tian a little timid, but he still had to say it for his future.
"Give me a promise."
"Let's hear it."
"I'll teach you everything I know in my head until you've learned it all, and then you'll grant me freedom."
Ye Shenge smiled, put down her fan, and tapped it against her hand. But with each tap, Jin Yu Tian's heart trembled.
"Do you know how many years you would be sentenced to if you were tried?"
