Reborn as the group's favorite, becoming the favorite of the rich boss

The door of the study was not closed. Jiang Ci walked slowly closer. Ji Shu was sitting on a chair, flipping through a photo album in her hands.

"Mom." Jiang Ci called softly.

Ji Shu looked up and saw that it was Jiang Ci. She smiled, but her eyes were full of sadness. Jiang Ci had seen Ji Shu like this more than once, and even worse. He still remembered Ji Shu's despair and her breakdown and crying when she was ill. At this time, his father could only hug her to ease Ji Shu's emotional breakdown.

"Xiao Ci is back. Why are you here so early today?" Ji Shu wiped her eyes, calmed down, and said in a gentle voice.

Jiang Ci half-knelt in front of Ji Shu, closed the photo album, and held her hand. Ji Shu must have opened the window of the study room herself. It was already autumn in October in the North City, and the weather was getting cooler. Jiang Ci rubbed Ji Shu's hand and comforted her carefully: "Mom, the weather is cold, don't open the window so wide."

Ji Shu felt the warmth on her hands, looked out the window, smiled, but her tone was full of nostalgia.

"When your aunt and I were young, we loved sitting here, with the windows open, talking and laughing, writing and drawing. At that time, your father and your uncle would chat in the yard downstairs. But now..." But now, the garden is still the same garden, the study is still the same study, but there are fewer people.

Jiang Ci looked at his mother. He didn't have much impression of the aunt mentioned by Ji Shu, but in the only memory, he could still remember that gentle and beautiful woman, and that elegant and gentle uncle. It was Ji Shu who brought them together. Everyone was optimistic about this couple, but no one expected that the ending would be like this.

Ji Shu pulled herself out of her emotions, patted the back of Jiang Ci's hand, and shook her head to show that she was fine. "Let's go downstairs. Your brother will be back today."

Jiang Ci sighed speechlessly, "Why is Jiang Yu back again? He comes home every day to eat and drink for free. He still comes home every day when he is in college." Ji Shuyi couldn't help laughing when she heard her eldest son scolding her youngest son, "How can you say that about your own brother?"

Jiang Ci rolled his eyes for a rare moment and was about to say something when a cheerful voice from downstairs reached the third floor.

"Mom! I'm back!" Jiang Yu picked up a strawberry from the table and put it in his mouth. Seeing that no one responded, he shouted "Mom!" again.

"Why are you yelling? It's ridiculous to run home every day." Jiang Yu wilted as soon as he saw that it was his elder brother. He shrank his neck and said with a grin, "Brother, you are at home. I thought you were not at home. I came home because I missed you. Besides, the food mom cooks is so delicious. I miss it if I don't eat it for a few days, right, mom?" He winked at Ji Shu as he spoke.

Jiang Ci said he disliked his younger brother, but he loved him very much in his heart. When she heard him say that, she didn't say anything else. Moreover, Ji Shu was often amused by Jiang Yu's mouth. It was obvious that Ji Shu really needed Jiang Yu at this moment. At least Jiang Ci couldn't laugh like Jiang Yu.

But I still need to say what needs to be said, "You can go home, you can eat, you can ask me if you don't have pocket money, but you have to study hard."

In fact, Jiang Yu's study is not bad, otherwise he would not have been admitted to North City University. Listening to Jiang Ci's nagging, Jiang Yu scratched his ears and quickly stopped him: "Brother, I know, I will definitely study hard, and I'm not busy recently."

"Not busy? I remember you said last time that a new round of machine adjustment and trial will be carried out at the beginning of next month? I saw you worried a while ago, why are you not busy now?" Ji Shu asked curiously. Jiang Ci also remembered that the Computer Department of Beijing City University had an experimental project in charge this year. If successful, it would be a major breakthrough for the country in the field of computers.

"Jiang Yu, don't be so careless. Since it is so important, you have to take it seriously." Jiang Ci frowned. It's not that he didn't trust Jiang Yu, but he still had to give him a few words of advice.

Jiang Yu clapped his hands and sat on the sofa closer to the two of them, fearing that they would lecture him, and quickly said, "No, I'm serious. Professor Weng said that we've hired an external consultant to help with the trial operation of the machine next month. Judging from Professor Weng's tone, he should be quite capable."

Consultant? Jiang Ci was a little curious. North City University has always been very rigorous in experiments. It was the first time that an external employee could be invited to participate in the internal machine adjustment and trial. But looking at Jiang Yu's appearance, he probably didn't know much. Jiang Ci didn't have that much time to be curious about so many things.

"Okay, since you're not so busy lately, spend some time with mom when you have time."

"Okay!" Jiang Yu responded straightforwardly. Ji Shu found it interesting to see the way the two brothers got along with each other. Her face, which had been sad just now, now had a smile on it.

"By the way, brother, when will Second Brother Song return to North City?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Ci was in a rare mood. He raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "Your second brother Song won't be back so soon. He's busy doing something important."

Jiang Yu and Ji Shu looked at each other, full of curiosity.

"What's so important that my second brother Song has to complete it personally?"

Jiang Ci peeled the orange and put it in Ji Shu's hand. He took out a piece of paper and wiped his hands while saying, "It's a big deal to start a family and build a career."

Now it was Jiang Yu's turn to be dumbfounded. Getting married and starting a family? "Brother, Second Brother Song has a girlfriend! No, looking at you like this, could it be that you haven't gotten her yet?" Jiang Yu was very excited, because in his eyes, Song Zhiyu was an omnipotent man. No matter his family background, looks, temperament, or talent, none of them was not outstanding. Such a perfect man actually had a girl he couldn't get.

Ji Shu was much calmer than Jiang Yu. Thinking of what Jiang Ci said about contacting a doctor last time, she understood. The two looked at each other. Jiang Ci naturally knew what his mother was thinking and nodded. Ji Shu knew that she guessed right and smiled. Only Jiang Yu looked confused and curious. Jiang Ci and Ji Shu tacitly kept silent. Jiang Yu was so angry that he grabbed the peeled oranges on the table and stuffed them all into his mouth.

midnight--

The night enveloped the earth, and there was silence. Jiang Qie felt as if she was in a dark place, with nothing around her and no sound. Jiang Qie didn't even know whether she had her eyes open or closed. Suddenly, the scene changed and she came to a ward. Her limbs were restrained, and next to her were doctors and nurses in white coats. They injected her with drugs. She began to be unable to tell whether she was in a dream or reality, because everything was so real.

Jiang Qie tried to break free from the restraints, but she became increasingly powerless.

"Jiang Qie, don't even think about defeating me in your life. You have nothing. Just die!" Lin Ning's ferocious face appeared in front of Jiang Qie. The strong fragrance mixed with the smell of disinfectant and alcohol. Jiang Qie felt as if he had returned to the days in his previous life when he was living a life worse than death.
