I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2569 - 1609: Art and Life (Part 2)

The more you strive to climb upward, the more you realize your own insignificance.

"He sent you more than just one contract, right?"

Fu Zili’s expression grew more complex.

"If this were a game, I would definitely report you for cheating. You’re practically hacking."

After the joke, he murmured an "Hmm," and said, "For someone like Fan Wanli, there’s no way he wouldn’t be prepared. Having cooperated with the Zhou Family for so many years, he must have long anticipated the possibility of the Zhou Family burning bridges. Besides sending his family away, he secretly hid a series of evidence against Zhou’s illegal activities, presumably to protect himself someday."

Fu Zili couldn’t help but sigh after speaking.

"Normally, with these incriminating evidences in hand, at worst, going abroad to reunite with his family wouldn’t be an issue. But man proposes, God disposes."

"Is the evidence conclusive?"

"I didn’t dare look at it, wasn’t it waiting for you to review?"

Fu Zili knows very well that Fan Wanli’s suicide is only the beginning of an earthquake in Sha City.

Meanwhile.

Besides those contracts not worth a penny, it’s the evidence that Fan Wanli truly exchanged for the Disaster Protection Talisman for his family.

Moreover.

Judging by the other’s expression, it’s clear that Fan Wanli having evidence of Zhou Family’s crimes and planning to hand it over was beyond his expectations.

To what extent of human nature has this been mastered?

"Click."

The hospital room door opened.

Fang Qing walked out gracefully.

Seeing her, Fu Zili immediately went silent.

"Keep the conversation going, pretend I’m not here."

Fu Zili smiled, "Hehe, we’ve finished talking."

"That fast?"

"I have to leave for a bit," Jiang Chen said.

"I’m going too."

Fang Qing decided without hesitation.

Fu Zili’s eyes focused on his nose, and his nose on his heart.

"What are you going to do?"

"What are you going to do?"

Before Jiang Chen could answer, a voice quickly followed: "Fan Wanli jumped off a building, now it’s Zhou Family’s turn, right?"

Fu Zili stopped crossing his eyes and switched to glancing around, presumably looking for a place to smoke.

Giving no chance to a certain person to argue, Fang Qing spoke with clear insight: "Dealing with Zhou Family can’t be like dealing with Fan Wanli, maybe I can help you."

Upon hearing this, Fu Zili’s gaze returned.

Indeed, Qing Gege’s professional skills might really come in handy.

"It’s not necessary."

But Jiang Chen straightforwardly refused.

Fang Qing frowned, "Why?"

"You’re a lawyer, your duty is to save people."

Fu Zili’s gaze wandered once more.

Fang Qing opened her mouth, seemed speechless, and then smiled gently, "No, the lawyer’s duty is to punish evil and uphold good."

Jiang Chen stopped arguing with her, "Let’s go."

Fu Zili silently nodded, avoiding looking at Fang Qing, and turned to leave with Jiang Chen.

"Hey, aren’t you being a bit too selfish?"

A voice called out from behind.

Fu Zili didn’t stop walking because the person ahead of him didn’t stop.

Hmm.

It sure is a bit selfish.

But from a male perspective, he can completely understand, and if he were in Jiang Chen’s position, he would make the same choice.

No matter what a lawyer’s duty really is, it doesn’t actually matter.

The only truly important thing is.

Qing Gege’s purity and goodness must not be sullied.

At least.

Not sullied because of oneself.

The two men soon disappeared down the corridor.

Fang Qing’s beautiful eyebrows furrowed in displeasure, watching their departing silhouettes. But for some reason, she suddenly couldn’t help but smile inexplicably.

"He’s quite dominating."

Hmm.

Not to mention dominant, someone seems to indeed be getting stronger.

Previously, in front of her, there was never such masculinity.

Boys are destined to grow up step by step.

After a moment of daze in the corridor, Fang Qing didn’t stubbornly chase the commotion; after all, she always has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. No matter how harsh her words might sound, she would never force people’s wills if they weren’t willing.

She pushed open the door again and returned to the hospital room.

"Where did Jiang Chen and the others go?"

Pan Hui asked.

"They had some matters, so they left first."

Fang Weiguo nodded, "The chairman of Green Land jumped off a building, things outside must be in chaos now."

"The world will keep turning no matter who is gone. Haven’t there been few entrepreneurs jumping off buildings?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Qing Qing, how can you say that?"

"Our daughter isn’t wrong, that’s just the truth," said Fang Weiguo, who regularly watches the news and stood firmly on his daughter’s side, "With the current situation, entrepreneurs are jumping off like they’re lining up one after another; Fan Wanli is just okay in Sha City, but compared to those major bosses, he’s much less influential."

"Qing Qing, tell Jiang Chen to... be careful."

Knowing a little yet seemingly knowing nothing, Pan Hui gently suggested.

"Mom, aren’t you aware of his vitality? For someone like him, he’s bound to live a long life."

"Still, a reminder is always necessary."

Fang Weiguo switched sides quickly and began supporting his wife, earnestly and sternly, "Better safe than sorry."

A life lost.

Undoubtedly signifies an intense escalation in the conflict.

As elders, how could they not worry?

"Yes, let Jiang Chen be careful; those people, they’re ruthless and inhuman, capable of anything."

Mai Encui chimed in.

The news brought by Fu Zili undoubtedly provided her with great relief, as her suppressed emotions were genuinely eased and effectively soothed.

Fang Qing looked at Zhang Zhongquan lying on the hospital bed.

An enemy has been punished, but there was no sign of awakening.

Also.

If miracles happened so easily, then they wouldn’t be called miracles.

"He’s been through unknown storms; these things are not even ripples for him."

Fang Weiguo and his wife involuntarily exchanged glances.

Mai Encui still doesn’t know the specific identity of Zhou Shaohua, the culprit that brought their family to the current situation.

But they know.

He’s the sky over the heads of millions in Sha City.

In their daughter’s words, he turns out to be "insignificant"?

Pan Hui wanted to speak but stopped, seemingly unsure how to continue, thus signaling Fang Weiguo to speak with her eyes.

"Jiang is really remarkable now, but he shouldn’t be too arrogant..."

"If he were arrogant, none of this would have happened."

Fang Qing spoke softly, saying things seemingly right yet hard to comprehend, leaving the elders completely baffled.

Fang Qing withdrew her gaze from Zhang Zhongquan and turned toward her father.

Some people are hell-bent on their own world and refuse to come out.

Some are limited by their small world, unable to get out.

"Dad, instead of worrying about him, you’d better worry about others. Surely you know, he’s no longer the harmless, honest kid he used to be."

Fang Qing has reasons for choosing to talk to her father instead of her mother.

Fang Weiguo instantly recalled that day, catching his daughter in bed across the room.

His breath grew heavier by two tiers, but fearing Mai Encui, he could only restrain himself.

Hmm.

Alright.

That kid indeed can’t be seen with the past perspective anymore.

"Qing Qing, how can you say that? No matter how much Jiang Chen changes, can he possibly outdo those bad people?"

Pan Hui refuted her daughter’s viewpoint.

"Mom, that’s not what I’m implying. What I’m saying is..."

"What do you mean?"

"I’m saying...aren’t you always watching TV with Dad? To Jiang Chen, Zhou Shaohua is no different from Green Land’s chairman Fan Wanli. And Green Land’s chairman Fan Wanli..."

"Before he made his fortune, wasn’t he selling fish at the market? Whether it be Green Land’s chairman Fan Wanli or the fish-selling Fan Wanli of years ago, in Jiang Chen’s eyes, they’re all the same. In fact, if Jiang Chen saw Fan Wanli selling fish at the market, he might even be more polite and ask if he could get a discount."

Vivid.

Visual.

Humorous.

To the point.

No doubt, she’s indeed a lawyer, always calling reason or truth in a way that’s easiest for the target to understand.

"..."

The room plunged into silence.

Whether Pan Hui understood or not remains unknown, but Fang Weiguo, who regularly watches TV, had certain memories provoked and unconsciously laughed.
