Chapter 30: Mom Has Something to Attend to, Maybe Next Time

After they walked a bit further, Chu Zilan looked at Rong Ci worriedly. "Xiaoci..."

Rong Ci shook her head and said indifferently, "I'm fine."

From the moment Lin Lihai divorced her mother, in her heart, he had ceased to be her father.

What made her feel bad was that because of her, the burden on her uncle had increased.

She was also pained by Feng Tingshen's partiality.

Thinking that Feng Tingshen only had Lin Wu in his heart, and that he was ruthless towards Yu Moxun and her uncle for Lin Wu's sake, never once considering her feelings, her heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a knife.

It was so painful that it seemed to be dripping with blood.

"Xiaoci..."

Chu Zilan hugged her affectionately.

Rong Ci forced a smile and said nothing.

It's okay.

She had already decided to move on.

As long as she was given some time.

She could do it.

"Want to go have a drink?"

Chu Zilan thought Rong Ci needed to relax.

Rong Ci shook her head. "No need."

Rather than drinking, she preferred to go home and study her data.

At that time, it was easier for her to calm down, relax, and find herself again.

Hearing Rong Ci say this, Chu Zilan didn't force it.

The two of them went to the parking lot. Just before getting in the car, Rong Ci's phone rang.

It was a call from Feng Jingxin.

The faint smile that had just appeared on Rong Ci's face faded again.

She paused for two or three seconds before answering the phone. "Hello."

On the other end of the phone, Feng Jingxin asked coquettishly, "Mom, when are you coming home?"

Rong Ci didn't answer but instead asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm so bored at home alone. Mom, can you come back and accompany me?"

Dad wasn't home, and Aunt Wu also had something to do. The house was very quiet, and she was so bored at home alone now.

She suddenly missed the days when her mother accompanied her to chat, and listened tenderly as she talked about her favorite animations and collectible figures.

So, she called Rong Ci, hoping that Rong Ci could come home and accompany her.

Listening to this, Rong Ci said indifferently, "Mom has something to do. Maybe next time."

She was Feng Jingxin's mother and indeed should try her best to meet her requests.

But she also had her own life.

She was in a bad mood now and needed some personal time.

Feng Jingxin was a bit unhappy. "Okay then..."

"Then Mom will hang up. Call Mom again if you need anything."

"Okay..."

Hanging up the phone glumly, Feng Jingxin became even more bored.

At this moment, Feng Tingshen came back. Seeing her looking as dejected as an eggplant beaten by frost, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"I called Mom just now and wanted her to come back and accompany me, but Mom said she had something to do..." She buried her pretty and delicate face in a soft pillow. "Mom has been so busy recently."

Hearing this, Feng Tingshen let out an "Mm" sound, sat down on the sofa beside her, picked up his phone, and started talking about business matters, without comforting her.

But since he didn't go back to the study to deal with work but stayed here with her, Feng Jingxin felt a little better and happily picked up her tablet to play her puzzle games again.

On the other side.

Seeing Lin Lihai and the others come back, Lin Lilan asked, "Why did it take so long?"

Lin Lihai paused. "We ran into Xiaoci."

"Hmm? Saw her?"

Lin Lilan was extremely beautiful. She had married well and was also a strong - woman. She had certain influence in both her husband's family and the Lin family.

When it came to her niece, whom she hadn't seen for several years, Lin Lilan didn't show much concern. Instead, she was more concerned about another matter. "Did you talk to her about Xiaowu entering Changmo?"

Lin Lihai shook his head. "I said a few words, but she wouldn't listen."

Lin Lilan put down her coffee cup and frowned. "Xiaoci really... Although I can understand that she's upset because Mr. Feng was taken away by Xiaowu, but we've all seen Mr. Feng. He's not the kind of man that a woman like her, who has nothing but good looks, can match or hold onto. Even if there was no Xiaowu, Mr. Feng would definitely divorce her sooner or later."

In Lin Lilan's opinion, Rong Ci was just jealous that Lin Wu had snatched Feng Tingshen away, so she was deliberately creating obstacles to prevent Lin Wu from getting a job at Changmo.

Rong Ci had no skills or knowledge and only knew how to make a fuss. Just thinking about it made Lin Lilan think Rong Ci was ridiculous.

Presumably, not only her, but Feng Tingshen probably thought the same way, right?

Unfortunately, Rong Ci herself didn't realize this at all. Maybe she was still feeling smug about ruining Lin Wu's good deed.

Thinking about Lin Wu's excellence and then about Rong Ci, Lin Lilan increasingly felt that the two were not comparable.

Lin Lihai sighed. "I know."

He thought the same as Lin Lilan.

"But she wouldn't listen."

"She really is..."

As stubborn - minded as her mother.

Lin Lilan didn't say this out loud. After all, anything related to that woman wasn't very pleasant.

"About cuap..."

"Let's ask Xiaowu about it when she comes back."

Lin Lihai was also very concerned about this matter.

Over the years, they had invested a lot of money in the AI field, but their company's products lacked advanced technology and had been developing mediocrely.

On the contrary, because of cuap, even if Changmo did nothing, it could earn over a hundred million every year.

How could they not be envious?

If they could unearth the core technology of cuap and integrate it into several of their existing projects, their company would probably take off soon, and it wouldn't be a problem for its market value to reach tens of billions then.

Just as they were thinking, Lin Wu came back.

Seeing Lin Lihai and his sister, she called out, "Dad, Aunt."

"Xiaowu is back?" When Lin Lilan saw Lin Wu come back, a smile immediately appeared on her face, and her love and admiration for Lin Wu were evident.

Lin Wu said, "Mm." She sat down and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Still about cuap," Lin Lihai said. "Since you can't get into Changmo, what are your plans now? Did Mr. Feng say anything?"

"Tingshen said he would help me get in touch with Nan Zhizhi."

Nan Zhizhi was a leading figure in the domestic AI field.

It was said that he was highly valued by the government and his whereabouts were kept confidential. Ordinary people couldn't meet him.

Yu Moxun was one of the few direct disciples of Nan Zhizhi. It was said that cuap was developed by Nan Zhizhi.

Since the path through Yu Moxun didn't work, they could only try to start from Nan Zhizhi.

"That's good," Lin Lihai smiled, but he was also a bit worried. "Yu Moxun is Nan Zhizhi's student. If he says something bad about you to Nan Zhizhi, will this matter..."

"Probably not," Lin Lilan smiled. "Brother, you don't know this. Mr. Nan Zhizhi is said to value talent the most. Our Xiaowu is a genius. As long as Xiaowu has the opportunity to meet Nan Zhizhi, with Xiaowu's talent and knowledge in the AI field, she will definitely be appreciated by Mr. Nan. It's not impossible for Mr. Nan to accept Xiaowu as his direct disciple as an exception. "

Lin Lihai smiled. "That's true."

Lin Lilan asked again, "So did Mr. Feng say roughly when we can meet Mr. Nan?"

Lin Wu took a sip of water and said indifferently, "At the technology expo next week. It's said that Mr. Nan will attend."

They naturally knew about the technology expo.

However, their company wasn't at a high - enough level in this field and couldn't get the exhibition tickets distributed by the government.

But with Feng Tingshen around, presumably—

Lin Lihai and Lin Lilan thought of this and looked at Lin Wu.

Lin Wu said, "Tingshen gave me two tickets, but only two—"

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter who goes with you. The important thing is that you must go."

Lin Lilan smiled. "That's right."
