MTL - Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!!-Chapter 44

In front of these words full of danger, Ye Lanting's fingers tightened suddenly, a kind of trance emotion trembled her nerves.

You've been investigating my son...

She disassembled these words a little dullly, trying to piece together the meaning behind them.

Is it that kid?

"Sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about."

Ye Lanting tried his best to maintain a calm tone, even though there was already a storm in his heart.

Wasn't that her husband's illegitimate child?

She clearly saw her husband's appearance from the child's eyebrows...

"Really?" The man on the phone gave a low laugh with some regret, "You changed three private detectives, but unfortunately they all returned without success, but I admire the first one the most, do you know why?"

Ye Lanting was stunned when she heard this, she didn't dare to answer this question, she could only try her best to make her breathing not so fast.

"Because my son said he loves that peaked cap he's wearing."

There was a touch of pampering in the man's voice, which soon turned into a bone-chilling coldness.

"And, he knows when to call it quits."

Ye Lanting gradually froze.

The first private detective found her a picture of a little boy eating bread, but she was unable to find any biological samples that could be used to extract identity information. He took the initiative to ask Ye Lanting to quit, and she was still furious at that time.

It wasn't until this moment that Ye Lanting realized that her secret investigations all along had been seen by others.

She knew that it was impossible to argue any further, and after hesitating for a moment, she said softly, "I'm sorry, I think it was a misunderstanding, I must have found the wrong person..."

Before she finished speaking, a child's voice came faintly from the other end of the phone.

"Dad, haven't you finished the phone call yet?" There was a hint of coquettishness in the immature childish voice, "I'm going to watch my brother play basketball, and the training is about to start."

Ye Lanting immediately realized who the child was, and also guessed who the brother the child was talking about. She held her breath and listened.

Then she heard the man's voice become slightly distant, and he responded with a completely different soft tone: "Okay."

"I hope you stay away from them." When facing her again, the man's words showed a little impatience, "Do you hear clearly? They."

Not only this child with a mysterious background, but also Pei Qingyuan beside him.

Ye Lanting wanted to try to refute, that was obviously the child who had been with her day and night for more than ten years, what qualifications does an unknown outsider have to ask her to stay away from Pei Qingyuan?

But the man's next sentence made her completely dispel these thoughts.

"You are very similar to Pei Minghong, both of you like to do dangerous things." The cold voice was filled with a sigh of almost pity, "The pledged equity is cashed out and then invested, the market value is getting better and better, but the leverage is getting bigger and bigger... No Feel like walking a tightrope?"

"But it just so happens that I like to watch other people play games like this." The man smiled softly, "I wish you all good luck."

The phone call ended here.

Ye Lanting's movements froze for a few seconds, and then she opened the call page of her phone in disbelief, trying to find out the number, but found that the call record had disappeared without a trace, as if everything was just an illusion of hers.

Pei Minghong has just invested in a few companies, but he wants to use pledge financing to cash out and continue to expand the group. There is no rumor at all, and even the vast majority of shareholders don't know, because Pei Minghong is still hesitating and has not made a formal decision. mentioned it to her.

He found a few trustworthy people to discuss the specific operation plan, trying to package it seamlessly on the outside, minimize the risk and maximize the benefits at the same time.

How did this unknown man know the news?

There was an unspoken menace in his final laugh.

When Ye Lanting panicked, her first reaction was to call Pei Minghong. This matter might be used as a handle, but before the number was dialed, she withdrew her fingers abruptly.

If Pei Minghong asked who this person was and why she noticed them, how would she answer?

Because she didn't believe anyone's explanation, she insisted on investigating this so-called illegitimate child, and then offended a father and son who couldn't find any identity information at all?

What is their origin?

Thoughts surged in his mind, Ye Lanting slumped his body against the back of the chair.

She can't speak, and she can't show any strangeness in front of her husband.

Otherwise, the home she tried so hard to maintain would fall apart even faster.

That man is only threatening verbally now, if she doesn't bother that child and Pei Qingyuan anymore, will nothing happen?

She could only comfort herself like this.

In a feeling of almost exhaustion, Ye Lanting looked blankly and found the photo from the phone that made her worry about it.

The child in the center of the picture is still devoting himself to eating the croissant in his hand, with a pure smile on his face.

This time, she could no longer find traces of her husband from the strange childish eyebrows.

She saw a distant stare, which made people feel cold all over.

No wonder she couldn't find the child's information no matter how hard she searched, and she couldn't even see the child's face every time she went to the door, and Pei Qingyuan, who had just returned to her biological mother, decided to move out alone.

Everything looks like a coincidence and chance, but behind it is another person's silent protection.

How did Pei Qingyuan come into contact with such a family?

In the growing anxiety and fear, the phone was dropped heavily to the ground, making a dull sound.

Ye Lanting could not accept this fact.

She is the object of the fake son who fell from the clouds to the mud.

rather than the other way around.

With a bang, the door of the gymnasium was pushed open, and Ji Tong, who was wearing a dinosaur sweater and carrying a planetary schoolbag, walked in, immediately attracting countless enthusiastic eyes.

"Tong Tong is here!"

"This sweater is so cute, is there any adult can wear it?"

"Tongtong, the ice cream hot pot will be here in a while!"

Today, the smile on Ji Tong's face was extraordinarily bright, and he waved his hands to greet everyone one by one.

It feels so good to be the boss, it's refreshing.

Pei Qingyuan looked back at him, and he noticed that Ji Tong disappeared from his mind in the evening. After the two stopped communicating, it took a while to appear in human form.

Maybe it was maintaining the data regularly, Pei Qingyuan thought so, so he didn't ask.

Under Coach Xu's loving eyes, Ji Tong went to his seat and sat down, holding the newly bought big yellow duck in his arms. On the chair next to it is a fluffy little yellow duck and a soulless watch Xiaomei.

The scene was very warm and peaceful, in stark contrast to the intense group chat in Ji Tong's consciousness.

[Mr. Ji uploaded a recording file. ]

[Mr. Ji: Ahhhhhhh I'm so handsome! So handsome! ! ]

[Brother Hao: ...can you be more calm? ]

[Yinyin: It's really handsome, my sister is almost heartbroken. ]

Originally, they all used the default system number, but after today, Ji Tong was no longer satisfied with the series of plain numbers, he felt that he should be called Mr. Ji.

Of course, Fang Hao was not to be outdone, and immediately changed his name. Only Fu Yinyin maintained the dignity and simplicity of an adult.

Ever since Ji Tong casually made up the identity of "a child from a wealthy family who hired Pei Qingyuan as a tutor", he has always wanted to try the cyber oboe of acting as a child and a parent at the same time.

After carefully analyzing the host's current situation, he decided to make Ye Lanting the first lucky audience to enjoy the performance.

At first he wanted to play the most common typical overlord in novels, but he lacked relevant experience. Thinking that Fu Yinyin, who specializes in the world of romance and crematoriums, should have seen many such male protagonists, he decided to ask her for help.

Fu Yinyin was very interested in this and offered many suggestions very enthusiastically.

Because the systems are often very idle. After all, our hosts are not caught in the exciting plots all the time, and there are many daily moments when the systems are not used.

[Yinyin: The child is already three years old, and he has a large-scale career, so I think it is more appropriate for the boss to be around twenty-nine years old. One year more is too old, and one year less is not enough. ]

[Yinyin: The male protagonist who is cold on the outside and gentle on the inside is the most popular, and it is easy to create a sense of Su, but recently we have become popular in the abstinence department who wears Buddhist beads and is pure-minded and ascetic... Forget it, this kind of thing is not very good suits you. ]

Ji Tong listened very carefully, and took notes in a swish, feeling deeply inspired. Seeing the heated discussion between the two of them, Fang Hao interjected unwillingly.

[Brother Hao: Why bother? Anyway, it's threatening the villain, just one word, crazy! ]

[Yinyin: ...It's too crazy at first, and it's easy to be regarded as a mental problem. ]

[Yinyin: But madness is really needed. My suggestion is to be madly introverted, madly deep, and madly to be free. ]

With the collective wisdom and efforts, the image of Ji Banquet has gradually become three-dimensional and rich.

That's right, the fictional character has a name.

Provided by Fu Yinyin in friendship, it is said to be selected from the high-frequency words of the names of the male protagonists in the crematorium world.

Ji Yanxing, male, 29 years old, a domineering president with all-hands and eyes, a mysterious background, a strong aura, and indifference to others. The only thing he cares about is his son Ji Tong.

The identity of the wife is unknown, maybe she dropped the ball and ran away, and when your growth points are accumulated enough to open the interoperability authority, I can play a friendly role. (Note by Fu Yinyin)

I often wear a well-tailored black suit, or a black shirt, anyway, black is the most handsome. (Note by Ji Tong)

Generally speaking, they are cold, and they use a smile to show their arrogance. The gentler the tone of outsiders, the more dangerous they are. I am familiar with this, follow me. (Note by Fang Hao)

…

Before such a detailed character setting, Ji Tong almost had the illusion that he really had a father.

Of course, putting aside these external conditions, in order to ensure that Ye Lanting would believe his lies, Ji Tong deliberately investigated some information about Pei Minghong's company.

His investigation is different from Ye Lanting's superficial investigation, as long as the information exists in the form of data, he can find it, so he can easily spy on Pei Minghong's secret.

When Ji Tong found out that Pei Minghong dared to take such a risk for his own benefit, he was really surprised.

If the host already has enough capital, it is entirely possible to take this opportunity to overthrow him.

But it doesn't matter, there is always Ji.

Ji Tong, who just finished playing the overlord, couldn't help showing a confident and arrogant smile.

During the break, Pei Qingyuan saw the child giggling while holding the little yellow duck doll again, and finally couldn't help his inner curiosity, and walked over.

"what are you laughing at?"

Ji Tong coughed lightly, restrained his expression, thought for a while, and felt that he should tell the host the good news.

"Ruan Ruan, Ye Lanting shouldn't dare to bother you in a short time." He raised his head and said, "You have got rid of these two families for the time being."

The reason for this is more complicated to explain. He had the entire recording of the phone call, which didn't take long, so he simply played it in his mind for Pei Qingyuan to listen to.

"By the way, I also created some evidence."

Ji Tong remembered something, quickly opened his planet schoolbag, and took out the photos.

This is the video data of the Season Banquet.

In the mansion, a man with a handsome face sat on a large leather chair in front of the window, the sun was smudged, and the delicate cufflinks on the black cuffs were particularly vividly reflected.

In another photo, his cufflinks were held by a short friend in his arms, and a smile emerged from his originally indifferent expression.

This is Ji Tong's fictitious appearance of Ji Yanxing, referring to the characteristics of various well-known handsome human beings, making him particularly handsome.

At least a hundred times more handsome than the primary school student Fang Hao.

When the growth points are accumulated enough, this is his image in the future.

With expectations for his future self, Ji Tong created a lot of photos of Mr. Ji and his son getting along out of thin air. Among them, Pei Qingyuan appeared in one or two photos of the mansion, as proof of his identity as a tutor.

But the focus is on the young boss and the three-year-old cub.

Who would have thought that father and son are both himself.

Ji Tong happily admired these photos, his eyes full of longing and affection.

After Pei Qingyuan listened to the recording, he was in a state of shock. Seeing him holding the photo with a treasured look on his face, he frowned imperceptibly.

"Who is this man?" he asked.

At first, Pei Qingyuan thought that the male voice on the phone was disguised by Ji Tong. After all, he had personally heard Ji Tong use the voice of a kind old lady, which is one of the capabilities of the system. The tone is completely different from Ji Tong's.

Moreover, when Ji Tong looked at the photo, he seemed to like this man very much.

Ji Tong originally wanted to say that he played two roles by himself, but after thinking about it, it seemed a little embarrassing.

He wants to maintain his pure and ignorant artificial intelligence image in the heart of the host.

"I asked my colleagues to help me." Ji Tong tried to fool the past, "It's a fictional character, it doesn't matter."

He said it was not important, but Pei Qingyuan noticed that the center of every fictional photo was this man, who was always in the most focal position of the lens.

Pei Qingyuan was silent for a while, then whispered: "Do you like his appearance very much?"

Ji Tong nodded without thinking.

This is him in the ultimate perfect form!

After getting the answer, Pei Qingyuan looked at these photos seriously again. It is undeniable that, unlike the young and immature high school students, this image is mature and dazzling, with an integrated sternness and nobility. Only when facing Ji Tong , the eyes are soft.

But in the reality outside the photos, he saw Ji Tong close at hand gathered these photos, carefully put them back into the schoolbag, and carefully zipped them up, revealing the obvious treasure.

So he replied softly: "I know."
