Liang Xiaodan held one person in each hand, but when she turned around, the older brother was nowhere to be seen.
"Xiao Dan, you go back with Grandpa first, I'm going to talk to your teacher."
"it is good!"
He leaned over the window in the corridor and quietly looked down.
Sure enough, there was that snow-white figure preparing to leave.
"Grandpa, I want to go play with my friends." Liang Xiaodan stared down and hurriedly let go of the hand she was holding.
"Maked new friends again?"
"Yes! He's a very, very good friend." Thinking of that stunningly handsome face and demeanor, Liang Xiaodan couldn't help but recall the only time he went on a trip and saw his peers eating and playing to their hearts' content, while he could only watch from the sidelines. Even the thing he longed for most, he begged for a long time, but his mother never bought him that mechanical superhero.
Li Hetai... has the same temperament as the peers he met back then.
If he can befriend Le Hoa Thai, does that mean he can become that kind of person?
As we continued along the way, we could hear the voices of "Xiao Dan" echoing all around us.
Gu Xinglan, who had already arrived at the door, thought she had misheard.
Until a few children suddenly appeared from behind.
"This is what I told you!"
Liang Xiaodan, who was in the lead, moved closer to someone.
Her eyes were fixed on him: "Uncle, can I take He Tai with me to play?"
Gu Xinglan glanced quietly at the person next to her.
"Ask him if he's willing." The children were very excited, and so was the cameraman, but it wasn't up to him to decide whether Li Hetai would agree.
"it is good."
Surprisingly, Li Hetai agreed.
What sparks will fly between locals and outsiders? That's something the production team loves to see.
The person carrying the camera quickly adjusted the position of his bag, staring intently at the children, and followed them closely.
When it really matters, this kid never lets you down.
Watching Li Hetai being escorted away by that group of people, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.
The longer two people spend time together, the more familiar they become, and the more they can discover the childlike nature in that person.
In normal interactions, he had absolutely no way of recognizing this person as the adult Li Hetai.
System: [You'll behave once the task object grows up.]
"Once he grows up, I should take what belongs to me and retire gracefully."
System: [Actually, the Supreme God's records haven't yet determined your new world identity. When this system went back to check for bugs last time, it discovered that the Supreme God seemed quite interested in you, and those the Supreme God is interested in are very likely to become one of us...]
Gu Xinglan kicked the stones under her feet hard, sending them into the alley.
System: [Our employees enjoy excellent benefits. If you have high mental strength, you could very well become an administrator... Host, what are your thoughts?]
"you guess."

In front of the stall.
It was the same auntie I'd seen before.
"Young man, are you still buying these vegetables?"
"Wait a minute."
I tapped the payment button several times, but only received the message: "[Credit card has been frozen due to risky transactions]".
How much money did the original owner owe?!
All three SIM cards in my phone are in this situation; the money in them is frozen, and I can't use any of it.
Looking at those few gray zeros, the threads in her mind snapped in an instant. Gu Xinglan, her fingers trembling, turned her head with tears welling up in her eyes: "Auntie, do you need someone to help you out?"
"Young man, you're joking." The woman grinned, showing her teeth. "Don't let my age fool you, I don't need anyone's help! I set up my stall in the morning and at night, there's nothing I can't do!"
I could barely hear the boasting in my ear anymore.
Suddenly remembering someone who could openly and legitimately come to her rescue during the filming of the show, Gu Xinglan cleared her throat.
The call was made in less than half a second.
The call was answered almost instantly!
[Gu Xinglan!]
An excited shout came from the phone.
Hearing this, Gu Xinglan's heart softened, and she carefully chose her words: "Yinian, are you free now?"
[We're having a wrap-up ceremony here, and there's a wrap party tonight!]
Lu Yinian smiled, her voice coming from the phone: "[I have two things to tell you, do you want to hear them?]"
"Yes, of course I do."
[I've secured a chance for you to turn your life around. I'm currently in contact with people. If you agree, you can not only soar to new heights but also jump to a bigger company. It's just that it's difficult to discuss over the phone because I have a lot of people on my end.]
"You... thank you, brother!"
This was probably the only friend who was completely open and honest with the original owner.
"And what about the other news?"
[My promotion to on-site producer will have to wait a bit, since you won't be back at the company for a while... To be honest, I was thinking of coming over to have a drink with you.]
"I'm... busy right now."
The signed contract includes a confidentiality agreement.
Lu Yinian was unaware that he was filming a program, nor did he know the real reason he was fired.
Lu Yinian was involved in the preparation of this program, but Lu Yinian himself was unaware of the filming process, which is enough to prove that Meng Guanhe did not intend for him to be deeply involved.
Meng Guanhe made the original owner participate in this program because he saw that the original owner was unpopular in the company, needed money, and was easy to control.
The larger the project, the more careful you need to be with the people you hire.
It's likely that Meng Guanhe's initiative to approach him at the hotel that time was partly due to his considerations.
System: [Second hidden event triggered, increasing by 0.5%, currently at 1.5%.]
No wonder this person, despite being a CEO, was simply sidelined after the original owner smashed him with an ashtray, and was even kept on hold with small projects from time to time.
It's likely that the original owner, who was previously unknown, had already become one of the candidates being considered by the other party back then.
"Yinian, I... want to borrow money from you."
Gu Xinglan regained her senses, and her tone was somewhat uneasy as she spoke.
In the video, the person cautiously borrowing money from a friend seems extremely conflicted. After a while, as if he had finally borrowed the money, his worried eyes lit up with joy.
"Thank you! I'll pay you back as soon as I earn the money!"
Finally, as the call ended, the person in the camera stared wide-eyed at us.
His gaze, whether deep or shallow, was filled with admiration.
"He is my good friend. If I ever become successful, I will definitely remember him! I hope that after the show airs..." Gu Xinglan clasped his hands together and said solemnly, "we can get together and have a toast to our brotherhood."
The show's popularity was inevitable, and Lu Yi's annual meeting was also inevitable.
He did not tell Lu Yinian the truth.
Not only him, but even the persona assistant was feeling a little guilty.
Looking at the thousand yuan on his phone, and the other party's words that they didn't want him to feel guilty.
System: [Host, here's a hint: think about the original owner of this body; you might be able to advance the hidden plot.]
The electronic voice in my head was extremely anxious.
Just then, several bank messages appeared, all instructing him to bring his ID card and bank card to a branch.
The original owner's credit was poor, and he had become a key target of the bank's attention. He had gone through the original owner's loan records for a long time, and there were all kinds of people, but very few of them were Lu Yinian. Even if there were, he could quickly find the repayment information.
Perhaps, Lu Yinian was the only anchor point that the original owner saw in Wushui.
This is a survival dependency mentality.
Having witnessed the fickle nature of the world and the shrewd, opportunistic people who part ways because of their values, the original owner's mindset was defined by the word "cherish" when they encountered the only person willing to go to great lengths, risk their lives, and offer their true heart without complaint.
"system?"
System: [Yeah.]
[Progress: 2%! We've got H's ranking in the bag!]
