I'm a Transmigrated Woman Who Is the CEO's Arranged Bride

……

In the ward.

Duan's mother looked at her son with a heavy heart.

However, I didn't dare to hit him this time, for fear of hurting him too much.

Duan Zhiheng, unusually, wasn't expressionless; instead, a smile appeared on his lips.

Because he knew that his mother's angry expression wasn't genuine.

He was truly angry because he had seen it in his dream; he was utterly despondent, his eyes lifeless.

Modern mothers are vibrant and energetic; even when they're angry, they're full of vitality.

"My best friend praised me again for having such a good son. She said his strategic planning was unbeatable, he played a huge game, turning a car accident into a business revolution, getting involved with the government, and officially entering the military industry. But Shen Qiyi's investment might be a complete loss, and he might even end up owing billions..."

Duan's mother spoke very quickly, mimicking what her best friend had told her.

He was perhaps too excited, and his words weren't clearly relayed.

Duan Zhiheng interrupted first: "She invested and lost everything, so how could she owe money? Don't talk nonsense."

Duan's mother: ...Is that the point?

"The important thing is, son, you almost lost your life this time, and you don't even have any descendants. Your father and I are still scared when we think about it. Your father's heart problem almost flared up again that day. Luckily, you let us know you were safe in time, otherwise your father would have had to go to the hospital too."

"When I saw you give Yueyue shares, I thought you'd finally figured things out. Turns out, it's just another business scheme. I was scrolling through Douyin and I think I saw something about the suspension bridge effect, where people's hearts race when they're in the most danger and they're more likely to fall in love with their savior. How come you don't have that problem at all? Reading too many books isn't good either. ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh, your brain's all messed up."

Duan Zhiheng: ...Wow, you're amazing! You even understand the suspension bridge effect.

He's been in the hospital for so long, and he's actually thought about it.

Could it be the suspension bridge effect?

He developed special feelings for her because she saved him.

But he was certain it wasn't.

Even before the car accident, I had been paying extra attention to her.

I'm just someone who really doesn't want to disrupt my current lifestyle.

I don't want to change.

Fear of change.

Moreover, every time I tried to befriend someone, it ended up benefiting me in the end, and it all turned into a business transaction.

No one believed my explanation, not even my own mother.

"Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Duan Zhiheng said.

Duan's mother: ...You have no idea what's going on. No, I have to step in.

  

Then, while Shen Yue was adrift at sea, she received a call from Duan's mother.

Shen Yue is quite respectful to her elders.

After answering the phone, I heard Aunt Duan's enthusiastic voice chattering away on the other end.

"I heard from Zhizhi that you went to the island to film a show. Zhizhi was injured this time and it was thanks to your help that I was able to take care of her. I haven't been able to take care of her during this time. When you come back, let's make a date."

I remember you also like racing, and Zhizhi likes it too. He thought he was secretly keeping it from us, but actually his dad and I both went to watch his races. That kid is reserved; he's too shy to say what he likes. But now that he's broken his ribs, he definitely can't drive those cars anymore. I remember he has a garage with over thirty cars. When you come back, Auntie will take you to pick one you like, and you can drive them all home. And what about those car shows? Auntie doesn't know anything about cars, but you're young and know a lot. When you come back, will you come with Auntie to go for a look?"

Shen Yue: Okay, okay, okay...

This seems to be the only response I can give to an elder who is very talkative but knows how to give gifts.

Can you tolerate receiving a gift after just one long sentence? Of course you can.

However, when it comes to racing, the original owner really liked it and even participated in races, including the kind with points and competitions. It wasn't just casual racing; the original owner also had many good cars. It's a pity that in front of Ouyang Si, the original owner always presented herself as a well-behaved young lady from a respectable family, and this side of her was never revealed.

Indeed, when you love someone too much, you unconsciously castrate yourself, hide yourself, and mold yourself into the shape that the other person likes.

You broke his wings, cut off his feet, and gouged out his bright, spirited eyes, only to be abandoned instead of loved.

No matter how you try to please a treacherous wolf, he will never be satisfied. The only way to deal with a wolf is to beat him up.

Shen Yue felt that Ouyang Si must have known about the car accident, otherwise he would have been so stupid as to ask her to come with him when he died.

It's a pity that we live in a society governed by the rule of law; we must abide by the law.

In her experience, if a person gains benefits through improper means, they will become addicted and unable to stop, and she will always be able to find fault with them.

If it's fair economic competition, Shen Yue feels she probably can't beat Ouyang Si; he's the ultimate winner, with a feeling of being blessed by fate. But if it's unfair competition, well, that's another story.

A law-abiding citizen is fishing patiently.

The vast sea.

It drifted for a long time.

Finally, when the sky was a deep red, we saw the island shrouded in red light.

From a distance, it looks like a black dot; as you get closer, the black dot gets bigger and bigger.

I then realized it was an island.

Shen Yue and Xiao Fu arrived on the island as the sun set.

Seabirds soared over the island, the sea breeze rustled, and the island was covered with lush forests.

Shen Yue felt more at ease as she stepped onto the island's soil.

As expected, I am still a land-based cultivator, and I feel safer with the land.

However, as soon as she stood still, Shen Yue felt many eyes focused on her.

There weren't as many energy bodies as at the space base, but there was still a somewhat unfriendly atmosphere.

Body cultivators are very sensitive to this; if they aren't, they'll die.

Thankfully, I not only brought my own bulletproof vest but also wore it.

She turned to look at the source of the unfriendly gaze.

She saw a blonde, blue-eyed girl with two young Asian men. They seemed to be talking to themselves in English, which the original owner understood, and she understood a little.

"Dragon King, in our Western world, dragons are evil. How can someone be called the Queen of Evil? I heard she's also a tycoon who just invested billions in weapons research. Truly an evil dragon-woman..."
