Chapter Eighty-Seven: Executed by Law

  "The patient's current situation is not optimistic, as they are all relatively old and this injury is in a critical area. I advise you to stop wasting your energy and prepare for the worst." The doctor was very direct, without worrying about hurting the family members, and directly told Cheng Zihuan about Lai Ying and Cheng Shihao's current situation.

  Cheng Zihan furrowed her brow, took a deep breath, and although she had already prepared for the worst, she hadn't expected the situation to be this dire.

  I originally thought Lai Ying's situation would be slightly better and there was still hope for her.

  With her eyes closed, Cheng Zihan was in a hollow state.

  Qin Kesou arranged for several doctors to go and rest first, and also instructed them not to disclose any information about the patient. After getting their guarantee, he returned to Cheng Zihan's side.

  Cheng Zihan had been busy for a whole day and night, and was extremely exhausted, with dark circles under her eyes.

  "Zi Han, don't worry too much, it'll be fine." Qin Ke Xiu patted Zi Han's shoulder and comforted her in a soft voice.

  "Do you know, Qin Ke Xiu, it's just like in my past life. I thought I really disliked my grandmother, from when I was young to when I grew up, she was never good to me, and could even be said to be very harsh. But at the moment of her death, I truly felt a deep sorrow and pain. There is this kind of person, originally fine in front of you, or you always thought they were annoying and bothersome, not willing to see them, but suddenly one day, they really left, and from then on won't appear in front of you again. You will feel like something is missing inside your heart, empty and hard to bear. My current feeling is the same as back then. I know that if it were like this with dad, he would also be very sad. No matter how grandma treated him, he never blamed her. If she really died, even if I saved dad, would he feel sorrowful because he couldn't see grandma's last face?" Cheng Zi Han lifted her head to look at Qin Ke Xiu, tears falling down her pale cheeks, her voice a bit hoarse, the whole person looking very fragile and helpless.

  Qin Kesou looked on with a mixture of emotions, wanting to comfort her, but didn't know how.

  He had always been alone and never experienced this kind of heart-wrenching feeling, nor did he know what it was like to lose something, because he had never possessed anything.

  He didn't know if he would have the feeling that Cheng Zihuan said, if he continued to live in that world and saw Qin Hongwei die on that day, because he couldn't experience this pain.

  But at this moment, he looked at Cheng Zihan, looking at the wound in her eyes, his heart was as if it had been grasped by a small hand, and was being squeezed tightly, causing a sharp pain.

  There was never a moment when he didn't want to protect this girl, not wanting her to suffer any more harm. Even if it meant eternal damnation and reincarnation, he had no regrets.

  "Zi Han, or perhaps there's a way to save your grandparents." Qin Ke Xiu looked at Cheng Zi Han with complex feelings in his heart for a long time before speaking.

  Cheng Zihan's eyes lit up, right, how could he have forgotten about Mangcang at a time like this? He had lived for so long, he must have a way.

  In the Tree Spirit Space, the Thousand-Handed Guanyin looks very good. As soon as you enter, you can see the crystal-clear plants under the sunlight swaying gently in the breeze.

  Mangcang stood behind with his hands on his back in front of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin, frowning as if thinking about something.

  When Cheng Zihan appeared, he turned his head to look over and saw that it was Cheng Zihan. He couldn't help but smile wryly and said self-deprecatingly: "Cheng Zihan, in this life, I really don't know if meeting you is my good fortune or misfortune."

  Cheng Zihan heard this and her tears fell down uncontrollably.

  "Alas, Cheng Shihao's fate was sealed here, and I couldn't save him. But Lai Ying's destiny changed because of your appearance, so saving her doesn't count as defying heaven or altering fate. Let's just say I owe you one." Mang Cang said, pulling out a small blue-and-white porcelain bottle from his bosom and tossing it to Cheng Zihuan.

  Cheng Zihan hastily took it over, and inside the porcelain bottle, there was only one pill, crystal clear and beautiful to the point where people couldn't bear to swallow it.

  There was something vaguely visible inside the pill that seemed to be moving around, but Cheng Zihang couldn't quite make out what kind of creature it was.

  "What is this?" Cheng Zihan asked in confusion, holding the porcelain bottle.

  "Life-saving medicine, go quickly, or it will be too late. Remember, you can only save one person, and only once. This medicine is the only one in the world, I'm afraid no one else can refine it again. You all leave now, don't bother me with such good deeds of saving people anymore." Maang Cang waved his hand somewhat impatiently, shooing them away.

  Cheng Zihan let out a sigh of relief, anyway, saving one is better than none.

  Cheng Zihan and Qin Kexiu hastily exited the Tree Spirit Space after receiving the porcelain bottle.

  When they returned to the operating room door, Cheng Shan and Cheng Huilan were still there. Cheng Zihan smiled coldly and walked straight over.

  The armed police at the entrance did not stop Chengzi Han and let her in directly.

  Cheng Hui Lan looked displeased at once, "Why can she go in and I can't? You're obviously helping her!"

  Those two armed police looked at Cheng Hui-lan with a stupid expression, "Don't you see what your identity is and what her identity is. Even our captain has to nod and bow his head when he sees her, what are you? You can compare yourself to her?"

  Cheng Hui Lan was so angry that she couldn't utter a word for half a day, pointing at the two people in front of her.

  Insulting the people's police is also against the law, they can casually give you a criminal charge, even if it can't be sentenced to prison, it can still make you enjoy a good stay in the detention center for 10 or 8 days.

  But seeing Cheng Zihan enter, Cheng Huilan was anxious. If Lai Ying really woke up, it would be exposed!

  Shouldn't have let her off easy now she's fine but he's in big trouble!

  This dead old woman really knows how to cause trouble!

  Cheng Huilan was thinking angrily in her heart, hating that she couldn't rush in and strangle Lai Ying to death right now.

  She hated those two armed police officers at the door even more. If they hadn't been there, she would have gone in long ago and wouldn't need to be worried and frightened here!

  Cheng Zihan entered the ward, Cheng Shihao and Lai Ying's bodies were filled with tubes, and they also wore oxygen masks. The data on the electrocardiogram was not very stable, blood pressure was high, and the lack of oxygen was severe, even with the help of a ventilator.

  It seems like it can't last much longer.

  Cheng Zihan sighed and walked to the front of Lai Ying's bed, looking at this woman who was always high-spirited and proud, now lying quietly in front of her, unable to move or speak.

  If she doesn't save herself, she might not last much longer and will die soon, after which she won't be able to point fingers at her own face again.

  With a sigh, Cheng Zihan finally took out the porcelain bottle given by Mangcang, took out the medicine balls inside, removed Lai Ying's oxygen mask, and stuffed the medicine balls into her mouth.

  After taking the medicine, Lai Ying's complexion changed quickly. Her originally pale face gradually became rosy and radiant, looking like a young girl in her prime.

  Cheng Zihan looked up at Qin Kexiu with a glance, and Qin Kexiu also furrowed his brow.

  If Lai Ying eats this medicine and really becomes younger, it's actually a bit of trouble.

  Fortunately, the situation did not occur. After being warm for a while, she recovered to her original state, with stable breathing, strong pulse, and should have passed the critical period.

  Cheng Zihan let out a sigh of relief, as long as Lai Ying was safe and sound, then Cheng Hai would be saved.

  Unfortunately, Cheng Shihao was short-lived. He should have lived to be eighty years old. In Cheng Zihan's memory, he passed away in the year she turned fourteen. Now, however, due to his cold-blooded and cruel daughter, Cheng Huilan, his life has been shortened.

  It's not that Cheng Zihan didn't want to save Cheng Shihao, but Mangcang had already made it clear that Cheng Shihao's fate was sealed. His fate might have been changed the moment Cheng Zihan appeared here. Changing one's fate would shorten their lifespan. If he wasn't someone truly important to her, Cheng Zihan wouldn't sacrifice herself to save him. Clearly, Cheng Shihao wasn't worth saving in her eyes.

  Lai Ying had not yet come around, so Cheng Zihan, to be on the safe side, asked Qin Ke Xiu to go and find a doctor, who carefully examined her.

  The doctor looked at her with a puzzled expression after the examination, "This is strange! How could this be? Is it really a miracle? Her current condition is even better than before, whether it's heart and lung function or other aspects, they have all improved significantly!"

  The doctor saw this situation and began to suspect his own medical skills. He had been practicing medicine for many years, but it was the first time he encountered such a strange phenomenon.

  This time it can only be described as a miracle, Lai Ying recovered, and fully recovered, without needing any surgery or treatment, mysteriously self-healing.

  Cheng Zihan let out a sigh of relief and glanced at Qin Kexiu.

  Qin Kesou sent the doctor away and then returned to the ward again.

  Cheng Shihao estimated that he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer. Now, he was just waiting for Lai Ying to wake up and ask her what had happened.

  Lai Ying woke up two hours later, and after waking up, she didn't say a word, just quietly staring at the ceiling.

  She had a great deal of feeling after experiencing life and death, and also understood many things in an instant.

  Cheng Zihan stood beside her bed with her head down, looking at her, and didn't ask her anything either.

  It wasn't until a while later that Lai Ying finally came back to her senses from her own thoughts, looked at Cheng Zihang and said, "You're really amazing."

  Lai Ying's words were a bit abrupt, but Cheng Zihan understood them clearly.

  At this point, if Lai Ying still doesn't understand some things, then she's really too foolish.

  "You're not stupid either, I can save you and let you live, but also have the ability to make you die quietly. Tell me, what exactly happened, who did this to you?" Cheng Zihan smiled faintly, neither denying Lai Ying's words, nor caring about what Lai Ying knew or understood, for Cheng Zihan knew a thing or two that she would never reveal.

  "It's Alan." Lai Ying smiled bitterly, as if unwilling to recall what had happened that day.

  But in the end, she told everything clearly and in detail.

  That day, Cheng Huilan threatened her again, telling her to go find Cheng Hai for money, forcing Cheng Hai to pay alimony, and even wanting one million yuan in one breath.

  Lai Ying naturally did not agree, now Cheng Hai gives her living expenses every month, and when there is nothing to do, he will buy all kinds of supplements back for the two old people to eat. The family's needs are well prepared, how can Lai Ying not see Cheng Hai's kindness? How could she possibly continue to help Cheng Hui Lan do things that hurt Cheng Hai in such a situation?

  Unexpectedly, Lai Ying's refusal triggered Cheng Hui Lan's anger, and she directly picked up the hammer and heavily smashed it towards Lai Ying.

  Cheng Shihao, who came back later, saw it and went forward to stop it, but was also injured.

  Lai Ying's memory only went up to the scene before she fainted, seeing Cheng Shihao's terrified eyes widening in front of her as he fell down, and then she didn't know anything else.

  If it weren't for Cheng Zihan, she would have probably drunk the Meng Po soup and crossed the Naihe Bridge with Cheng Shihao. However, Cheng Zihan pulled her back, which also made her realize that there was absolutely no simple reason why Cheng Zihan did so.

  Cheng Zihan's face turned ugly after hearing Lai Ying's words, Cheng Huilan was indeed a woman who would stop at nothing, and she even dared to lay hands on her own mother.

  If Lai Ying didn't wake up this time, or if Cheng Hui Lan had been a bit more ruthless and killed Lai Ying directly, then Cheng Hai would never have had the day to clear his name.

  Cheng Huilan has already done all this, so she will definitely bribe the police station to directly sentence Cheng Hai to prison, the police station's methods of extorting confessions are too numerous, they can beat you half to death and force you to sign a confession, at that time you won't even have the chance to defend yourself.

  If the current Cheng Zihuan is really only eight years old, without the experiences of two lifetimes, and has no way to rescue Cheng Hai, then she can only watch her most beloved person die in front of her own eyes.

  Taking a deep breath, Cheng Zihan looked at Lai Ying and asked coldly: "Are you willing to tell the police the truth and get my dad out?"

  Lai Ying looked at Cheng Zihan, not speaking for a long time. Just when Cheng Zihan was about to give up, she suddenly sighed, "I finally know who will be with me and take care of me until the end. In the past, I owed your father too much, this time, it's my turn to repay him, I'll testify against Alan."

  Cheng Zihan nodded, this time Lai Ying finally did not disappoint her.

  After some thought, she finally said to Lai Ying: "Grandpa can't be saved, you go see him for the last time."

  Lai Ying heard this and burst into tears. They had just descended together to the Yellow Spring, walked the Yellow Spring Road, crossed the Bridge of Life and Death, and were already standing at the edge of the Naihe Bridge. As soon as they drank Meng Po's soup, it was estimated that they would all enter the cycle of reincarnation in the next life. However, Cheng Zihuan saved her, but couldn't save Cheng Shihao.

  Seeing Lai Ying's sad look, Cheng Zihan also couldn't bear it and turned her head away.

  Lai Ying slowly got out of bed and walked to the next room, grabbed Cheng Shihao's hand, and spoke to him with a sob.

  After all, they have been husband and wife for half a lifetime, more than 50 years. Cheng Shihao has always been by Lai Ying's side, how could this marital relationship be lacking?

  Cheng Shihao is leaving, and Lai Ying is the most heartbroken.

  Crying had cried, and having said what needed to be said, Lai Ying finally fell asleep on the edge of Cheng Shihao's bed.

  Cheng Zihan had Qin Kexiu help her back to her own bed, and when she went to check on Cheng Shihao again, she found that the corners of his mouth were raised, and he had stopped breathing.

  Cheng Shihao is dead, and only then does Cheng Zihan allow Cheng Shan to come in and see him for the last time, also making arrangements for his funeral.

  Lai Ying was still asleep, Cheng Shan was a bit worried about her condition, after checking on Cheng Shi Hao, he hurried over to check on Lai Ying.

  "She's fine, just fainted from the shock. She'll wake up soon. You go prepare for grandfather's funeral first." Cheng Zihan glanced at Cheng Shan, no matter what he did in the past, as long as he was willing to change, Cheng Zihan would forgive him. After all, he didn't do anything too wrong, unlike Cheng Huilan.

  "Why is it like this? Mom must have already told you the truth, right? Who was it?" Cheng Shan still didn't believe that it was done by Cheng Hai.

  "It's your good sister, Cheng Huilan." Cheng Zihan sneered, looking at Cheng Shan.

  Cheng Shan was like a person struck by lightning, no wonder, no wonder Cheng Hui Lan saw the blood all over the house and acted as if nothing had happened. No wonder when something big happened to her parents, the only thing she thought of was to ask Cheng Hai how much money he gave to his parents every month, asking where they put their money, and quarreling about dividing the inheritance as soon as possible. It turned out that it was actually her!

  Cheng Shan's shock and anger happened in a very short period of time from the beginning.

  "Calm down first, I'll handle it naturally. What's important for you now is to arrange Grandpa's funeral and notify many people to come over, those who Grandpa wanted to see before he passed away, make arrangements for them." Seeing Cheng Shan's expression, Cheng Zihan could only comfort him before leaving the hospital room with Qin Ke Xiu.

  Cheng Hui Lan is no longer in the hospital, probably escaped after receiving the news.

  Cheng Zihan hastily ordered someone to chase and capture Cheng Huilan, and also arranged for the police to come and prepare a transcript for Lai Ying. She herself rushed to the police station.

  Seeing Cheng Hai again, he looked even more haggard than before, with deep-set eyes and dark eye sockets, looking like he had suffered a lot.

  Cheng Zihan's eyes reddened and she glared fiercely at the two police officers in the room.

  The two of them shrank their necks and retreated very consciously.

  Cheng Zihan pulled Cheng Hai's hand and said, "Dad, I'm sorry to have caused you trouble. I'll get you out of here soon."

  Cheng Hai smiled wryly and shook his head, then asked again: "Are Mom and Dad okay?"

  "Grandpa can't be saved, he's too seriously injured, and it's a fatal spot. He just passed away, Third Uncle is arranging the funeral, Grandma is fine, the police will come to take her statement soon, and then you can be released." Cheng Zihang briefly explained the current situation.

  Cheng Hai sighed and asked: "Who did it?"

  "Cheng Huilan." As soon as he said this name, Cheng Zihan fell silent.

  Cheng Hai also fell silent, and it was a long time before he let out a sigh.

  Perhaps for Cheng Hui Lan, Cheng Hai is really disappointing.

  The father and daughter chatted for a while, then Cheng Zihan left the police station, and beat up the two policemen again, instructing them to take good care of Cheng Hai. If he loses even an ounce when he comes out, they will be skinned alive.

  After leaving the police station, Cheng Zihan first returned to the plantation.

  Li Lan has been very uneasy since Cheng Hai's accident and hasn't slept for several days.

  As soon as he saw Cheng Zihan return, he hurriedly went out to greet her and looked at her back. "Zihan, where is your father? Why didn't your father come back with you?"

  "Mom, don't worry, Dad will be back soon." Cheng Zihan comforted Li Lan, looking at her haggard appearance also pitied her, and after much persuasion finally let Li Lan put her mind at ease before going to rest.

  Cheng Zihan first found all the people in the plantation, asked them, and Cheng Huilan indeed came to the plantation. She also found Li Lan, but didn't know what they said to each other.

  Li Lan came back later, looking dispirited and dejected.

  Cheng Zihan gritted her teeth, this damned woman shouldn't be allowed to continue living!

  Cheng Huilan, upon learning that Lai Ying was safe, immediately returned home to gather some belongings and rummaged through her cabinets to find over 5,000 yuan, then hastily fled.

  Before leaving, she went to find Li Lan and told her the truth about Cheng Hai killing Lai Ying and others, and naturally slandered Cheng Hai.

  Li Lan didn't believe her words, but she was also disheartened for a long time.

  Cheng Hui Lan left Wang Cheng and did not go home, but went to find someone instead.

  The sky turned dark, and the two stood at the top of the mountain, one in front of the other. The voice seemed to come from the edge of the sky, "You must save me, you must save me! If you don't help me, I'll tell Cheng Zihuan that everything was taught by you!"

  He hooked up the corner of his mouth with a cold smile, then turned back to look at the person behind him and asked, "Do you think she believes you or me?"

  Cheng Huilan bit her tongue. Indeed, if she spoke out, Cheng Zihan would definitely think she was slandering and absolutely wouldn't believe what she said.

  "She'll believe me! As long as I can describe your features, she'll definitely trust me. I hadn't seen you before and didn't know you, if we hadn't met in private, how could I have known what you look like? So Zihuan will believe my words, even if she doesn't fully trust them, at least she'll be suspicious of you! At this point, Cheng Huilan couldn't care about that much anymore, now that she's being pursued, the whole world can't accommodate her, and she has no choice but to betray the person in front of her in order to have a way out."

  "Do you think you have the chance to say that?" The man, however, did not get angry but instead smiled, looking at Cheng Hui Lan with a gaze as if he was watching a clown.

  Cheng Hui Lan felt a chill in her heart, and just as she was about to react and run, a dagger had already been thrust deeply into her chest.

  Tong Hui-lan never understood why she had to die until her death.

  "It's your own fault for being so stupid, you can't even handle such a small matter properly and let Cheng Zihan discover it. However, I'm curious, what other treasures does Cheng Zihan have in her hands that she's hiding from me too? Hmph." Looking at the corpse on the ground, the person coldly smiled, with a hint of indifference at the corner of their mouth. After saying a few more words, they kicked Cheng Huilan with disdain and then gave a cold order to someone behind them, "Get rid of it, make sure it's clean, best if it can be disguised as a suicide due to fear of punishment."

  The next day, the local police found Cheng Hui-lan's body and initially determined it to be a suicide due to fear of punishment. The police may not have wanted to bother with further investigation, so they directly handled Cheng Hui-lan's body that afternoon as if it were a case of suicide due to fear of punishment.

  Cheng Hai was finally released too.

  The moment she saw Cheng Hai, Li Lan couldn't hold back her tears anymore. These past few days, it wasn't just Cheng Hai who had been tortured, but also herself. She was worried and fearful every day, afraid that something unexpected would happen to Cheng Hai, and as a result, she had lost a lot of weight.

  Seeing her parents crying with their heads in their hands, Cheng Zihan finally let out a sigh of relief.

  Qin Kexiu walked over and whispered a few words in her ear, and Cheng Zihan's face changed again.

  "Where's the body?"

  "It's already been cremated, the police were quite efficient this time, they found the body in the morning and dealt with it directly in the afternoon." Qin Kesou said in a low voice to Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan furrowed her brow, "Hmph, it's not that they've become more efficient, but rather there's someone backing them up."

  "You've noticed it too?" Qin Kexiu exclaimed in surprise.

  Cheng Zihan gave him a white eye, "Do you think I'm an idiot?"

  Qin Kesou smiled silently and stopped talking.

  Cheng Zihan continued: "How could a fool like Cheng Huilan come up with the idea of killing someone and then framing my dad by manipulating the crime scene? If she was really that smart, she wouldn't be foolish enough to drag the village chief and a group of people to my parents' house to ask for me to marry that fool Liang Shicheng. There must be someone behind Cheng Huilan who taught her to do these things. After the incident, they were afraid she would reveal their identity, so they killed her to silence her. But as for who is behind all this, I still have no idea and am completely clueless."

  Qin Kesuo also nodded, he had discovered these things a long time ago, but because he was busy dealing with other matters, he didn't send anyone to keep an eye on Cheng Huilan. Otherwise, they should have been able to investigate who was behind the scenes instructing Cheng Huilan.

  "No matter what, it's finally settled for now. From now on, we all need to be more careful. The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light, which puts us at a disadvantage." Qin Kexiu patted Cheng Zihan's head and comforted him with a sentence.

  Cheng Zihan smiled, "No matter who it is, if I catch her, I won't let her off!"

  Cheng Hai was subjected to severe torture and interrogation at the police station, with many injuries on his body, most of which were internal. Cheng Zihan took him for a thorough examination to confirm that there was no danger before they returned to the plantation together.

  Cheng Shihao's funeral was quickly arranged, the weather in October was still very hot, and the body could not be kept for a long time, so after leaving the hospital, he went straight to cremation.

  Many people who were close to Cheng Shih-hao and rushed over didn't have time to see him for the last time.

  On the day of Cheng Shih-hao's funeral, Lai Ying remained calm throughout the entire process, neither crying nor making a scene.

  Cheng Huilan's funeral was not held, presumably because she had done such a thing and Lai Ying did not want to acknowledge this daughter either.

  After everything was settled, Cheng Zihan also left a heart.

  After Cheng Huilan, Cheng Hui Ling will probably come back to stir up trouble again. This time, we can't let anyone get close to her and conspire with her, or else it'll be impossible to guard against.

  But who exactly wants to harm her? Cheng Zihan couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she thought.

  Cheng Zihan rested for half a day and then returned to school.

  Duan Yitong hurried over as soon as she saw her, anxiously asking: "Zihan, are you okay? I've read the news and newspapers, I know what happened at your home, how could something like this happen?"

  Cheng Zihan smiled wryly, clearly unwilling to discuss this matter.

  Duan Yitong comforted her for a few words and then went back to class seriously.

  Looking at the empty seat next to her, Cheng Zihan suddenly missed Qin Kexiu.

  I also don't know how that little light head is doing now, or if he's living a good life.

  Gu Yang didn't say where Qin Ke Xiu and Qin Jing went, they both left class eleven, only those boys who liked Qin Jing complained a few sentences at the beginning, but soon they were brought over.

  Cheng Zihan and Duan Yitong are both **-year-old girls, so they don't care about their appetite.

  Class eleven is still class eleven, everyone is not making progress, speaking and fooling around in class, and handing in blank papers during exams.

  These people are all some official second-generation rich second-generation, their families are all wealthy and powerful, I guess they all have some unknown secrets in their hearts, so they will be so indulgent and decadent to exile themselves.

  Cheng Zihan didn't have the mind to care about other people's trivial matters, but in fact, many trivial matters liked to take the initiative to find her.

  There was an exam in October and it was scheduled at the end of October.

  Early in the morning, Gu Yang walked into the classroom with a somewhat unpleasant expression. After looking at the students present, he sighed and said, "I have some good news and some bad news to tell you."

  Cheng Zihan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and glanced at Gu Yang. She knew that when he said something like this, for them, good news was usually bad news, and bad news was also bad news. So today, Gu Yang had two pieces of bad news to announce.

  "I'll start with the bad news. The bad news is that the school has decided to disband Class Eleven." Gu Yang said, his face heavy as he looked at everyone slowly.

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched slightly, what kind of bad news is this? It doesn't count as good news for her.

  But everyone present changed their faces in an instant.

  They are very clear that the dissolution of Class 11 is definitely not the school's own decision. In Wangcheng Middle School, the real people with the right to speak are the Board of Directors and the Parents' Association. They are the ones who can really decide some major events in Wangcheng Middle School.

  Class eleven is made up of problem students, perpetual repeaters, but their families are all wealthy and donate large sums of sponsorship fees to the school every year, which is why the school allows them to exist in such a special way.

  Class 11 has been together for five years. Except for Cheng Zihan and Duan Yitong, the students here have basically been together for five years. The emotions between them are not something that ordinary people can understand.

  They all have the same background and experience, with a sense of being birds of a feather.

  "What's the good news?" Seeing no one speaking up, Cheng Zihan had no choice but to be the one to break the silence.

  Gu Yang looked at Cheng Zihan with a grateful face, then excitedly said: "The good news is that if you have three subjects passing the final exam this semester, you can all advance to junior high school together!"

  Guo Yang finished speaking and excitedly burst out laughing, but the whole room fell silent, with his classmates staring at him with a look of utter bewilderment.

  Gu Yang suddenly felt a group of crows flying over his head with a loud whoosh.

  Cheng Zihan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

  Can this be considered good news?

  But for Gu Yang, it should be good news.

  In the first year of junior high school, there are seven subjects. If we require the "Mixed World Demon King" to pass every subject, it's basically impossible. However, if only three subjects are required, it might be possible for someone to achieve this, and even if they can't get that many, they can still cheat their way through.

  Cheng Zihan turned around and took a look at those people behind him, feeling amused in his heart. Looking at their expressions, they really didn't have any happiness to speak of.

  "Cut!" The crowd fell silent for a moment, then simultaneously let out a "cut" sound, and then they all fell silent.

  Cheng Zihan secretly smiled and looked at Gu Yang's face, which was pale one moment and blue the next, thinking that this teacher was really pitiful.

  However, on that day, Cheng Zihan found that those who had always been playing were indeed much more diligent, and they all started to bury their heads in books and stopped playing.

  They should be reluctant to part with each other, right?

  Cheng Zihan just smiled and didn't take it too seriously.

  By afternoon, everyone suddenly gathered in front of Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan was originally still asleep, but suddenly felt a black shadow looming in front of her, and she was startled. She quickly opened her eyes to find twenty or thirty people surrounding her.

  "What are you doing?"

  "Cheng Zihan, I know you're a genius. Can you help us with our homework?" said Lin Ze Wei, the class monitor of Class 11.

  Cheng Zihan was taken aback.

  Duan Yitong smiled with schadenfreude behind her back and poked Cheng Zihans back with a pen.

  Cheng Zihan turned around and looked at her with some blame.

  Duan Yitong just chuckled and imitated Lin Zewei's tone, "Cheng Zihang, you can tutor us."

  Cheng Zihan thought for a moment before saying: "I can tutor you, but you must absolutely obey me."

  "No problem!" everyone chimed in unison.

  Cheng Zihan sighed, it seems like there will be more trouble in the future.

  She never thought she had the ability to teach and educate people, as long as she didn't mislead her students, it was already pretty good.

  Thus, Cheng Zihan began his career of misleading others.

  However, Cheng Zihan really didn't have any talent for teaching, so she just made everyone desperately read books and copy notes, memorizing them by rote. Especially in subjects like biology, politics, and history, which rely on memory, as long as you could pass these few subjects, it would be fine.

  From that day on, the whole Class Eleven seemed to have changed overnight, with everyone burying their heads in their books, looking even more diligent than students from other classes.

  Cheng Zihan is probably the laziest, while others are studying hard, she is secretly sleeping.

  October passed very quietly, and at the end of October, a mock exam was held, and surprisingly, half of the classmates in the class were qualified.

  It seems that passing all exams by the end of the term shouldn't be a problem.

  Cheng Zihan stopped going to school in November. November and December are the peak sales seasons for flowers, saplings, and tree saplings, and this year's Chinese New Year is earlier than usual, with the Lunar New Year's Eve falling on January 31st, so she naturally had to return to the plantation to take charge.

  During this period, under Qin Ke's care, the planting garden developed very well. The greenhouse has been taken care of by a special person, who sows and nurtures seedlings every day before transplanting them outside.

  The saplings and flower seedlings bought back from the auction have all been planted and are now growing very well.

  That small-leaf purple sandalwood is also growing very well, and in a month or so it will be as thick as a thigh.

  Cheng Zihan hasn't worked in a plantation like this for a long time and surprisingly misses this feeling.

  The greenhouse is divided into two parts, the front part is managed by the staff of the planting garden, and the innermost part is specially reserved for Cheng Zihang to cultivate new products.

  Now the garden is in full bloom with over a hundred varieties of flowers and business is also very stable.

  In addition to the fixed customers in Wangcheng and surrounding cities, there are also many customers from other provinces and cities who come to buy famous and expensive flower seedlings.

  The land auction originally scheduled for October 20th has been rescheduled to November 11th due to some clients being unable to attend.

  Time flies, it's almost done.

  Cheng Zihan first went to the finance department to understand the company's current accounts, and then determined how much liquid funds the company had available for use. Only after having a clear idea of this could she attend the auction.

  Thirty million mu of land, conservatively estimated to be around ten billion, should not be taken down, and if there is a strong opponent competing with oneself, it is estimated that it still cannot be taken down.

  The company currently has 2 billion yuan in available funds. Cheng Zihan calculated that, if nothing unexpected happens, the 2 billion would be enough to secure that piece of land.

  Qin Kexiu has been busy enough during this period of time, rushing between Wangcheng, Nanjing and Beijing, not stopping for a moment.

  However, the results are also very good. Now, Yihuan Garden's business is booming, not only has it opened up the domestic market, but even foreign customers come to pick up goods here.

  For foreigners, Cheng Zihang naturally did not show any mercy and ruthlessly charged them ten times the domestic price.

  The sales staff in the sales department have now thoroughly become the salesmen on this side of the plantation, constantly expanding their business and achieving quite good results.

  In the past six months, the plantation business has been booming and has now become one of the top two enterprises in the province. It has also become a major source of tax revenue for Wangcheng.

  Because there are now specialized financial personnel responsible for managing the company's accounts, Cheng Zihang has also become much more relaxed.

  Qin Kexiu is indeed an outstanding corporate management talent, and I don't know what method he used to make all the employees in the company work hard for him with all their heart.

  All employees selected into the core are absolutely loyal, and their salary treatment is also quite different from other employees.

  Others work harder in order to enter the company's inner core.

  Cheng Zihan no longer needs to manage company affairs at all, as Qin Kexiu takes care of everything. He seems to have endless energy and does the work of several people by himself.

  Cheng Zihan sometimes feels heartbroken when she sees him.

  "Ugh, I'm exhausted." As soon as he entered the door, Qin Kexiu plopped down onto the sofa with a thud and let out a sigh.

  Cheng Zihan looked up at him and said, "You've been working hard lately, why don't I give you a day off?"

  Qin Kesou smiled and said, "Take a break? Then you come and do my work for me?"

  Cheng Zihan smiled slyly and quickly covered her mouth.

  Joking aside, how can one person possibly handle several people's tasks?

  "But that's not a solution either, why don't we go and recruit a few more people to come back and help? Nowadays, professional CEOs should also be available, if not domestically, we can look for them abroad." Cheng Zihan looked at Qin Kexiu with a pained expression and said tentatively.

  Qin Kexiu lay on the sofa staring at the ceiling without saying a word, but when he heard Cheng Zihan's words, he suddenly jumped up and said, "Now please come back, it's unreliable, and our company needs long-term development, we need people who can serve us for a long time, so now we need to cultivate our own talents."

  Cheng Zihan raised an eyebrow, indicating for him to continue speaking.

  Qin Kesu took a sip of tea before continuing: "I've already sponsored a batch of poor children, from primary school to middle school to university. During this period, I'll keep instilling in them the idea that they should repay us with all their might. The Han Chinese have a strong slave mentality, and when they grow up, they will be the most loyal helpers, absolutely not betraying easily."

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched upon hearing this, although she also agreed with Qin Ke's words. The slave mentality of the Great Chinese people is really strong, and history has fully proven this point over thousands of years from ancient times to the present. Even when the country was invaded and occupied, they still had a flattering face in front of the aggressors.

  But cultivating talent in this way still makes her feel unacceptable.

  Qin Kexiu also saw the entanglement in Cheng Zihans heart, and looked at Cheng Zihan with a light gaze. "At this time, you absolutely cannot have half a point of mercy. Moreover, we changed their fate, gave them a future, and made them work for us. There's nothing wrong with that. This is also their good fortune, not an unfortunate thing."

  Cheng Zihan nodded, "Alright, whatever you want to do is fine with me, I trust you."

  Qin Kesou looked at Cheng Zihan like that and smiled, "What? So trusting of me? Not afraid I'll betray you?"

  "How dare you!" Cheng Zihan gritted her teeth, wishing she could pounce over and pinch Qin Ke's neck.

  "Haha." Qin Kexiu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  Stop smiling and turn serious, looking at Cheng Zihan, "The land auction in a few days is a fierce battle. I've investigated it already. The people who are coming to participate this time have some background."

  Cheng Zihan immediately jumped up as soon as he heard something he cared about and hastily asked: "Who is it?"

  "The people from the four major families in the capital have all arrived." Qin Kexiu felt somewhat helpless.

  "What? Them again!" Cheng Zihan felt a bit dizzy.

  What makes her comparable to the four major families of the capital? But what are these four dead old men doing, coming here to compete with her for no reason?

  They should have been severely punished last time, making them bedridden for three to five months, so they wouldn't dare to oppose themselves!

  "Well, and this time all ten of the hidden world families have come." Qin Kesou glanced at Cheng Ziheng and added another sentence.

  Cheng Zihan was suddenly speechless.

  These four big families all know her, they are likely to take revenge on themselves, so they deliberately made things difficult for themselves, but the top ten hidden world families, aren't they supposed to be hidden? Why did they also come to join in the fun?

  She didn't know that Wangcheng had such good feng shui, attracting all the big shots from all over China.

  It seems that this auction is going to be a real battle.

  But now she only has 20 billion yuan in liquid funds that can be used, how can she compete with these old guys!

  Digression

  This is an automatic saved draft. When you guys see this, I'm probably already dead in a small black room.

  Remember to come next year on Qingming Festival, burn incense for Yiyang, and don't forget to put a small bunch of yellow chrysanthemum on the tomb...

  Also remember to bring a basket of cucumbers, can let everyone have fun playing with them when they're bored.
