The Secret History of Mars

Yuan Yizhou saw Ye Qinghe and Xia Qi off and left Mie Meng Gallery.

Cui Xingmeng stayed alone in the conference room, looking at the faint, colorful bottle of laughter on the table! Recalling what Ye Qinghe said to her before leaving just now, she fell into deep thought!

Ye Qinghe said that Cui Xingmeng's parents in this life are the last disaster she must go through as the No. 1 seed in Shiyiji!

They are not the genetic inheritance of Elder Cang Xi and Elder Bao Xi, they are just the biological foster care of Cui Xingmeng!

"Xiao Min, what does 'biological foster care' mean? Is there an explanation for this entry in your Mars database?" Cui Xing dreamed of being an omniscient virtual housekeeper and asked when no one was around. The question that matters most to me, but has always been too shy to ask.

"Shi Yiji's parents and children will have four different fates to become a family in this life!" Ye Qinghe was here just now, and Xiao Min had never dared to be presumptuous in front of his creator, but now he finally had a chance to speak.

"Four different kinds of fate?!" Cui Xingmeng repeated softly, not knowing which kind she and her parents and brothers were, "Tell me about it!"

"Repaying kindness and complaining are for love; repaying debt and collecting debt are for material things!" Xiao Min explained clearly.

"One is for love, and the other is for things..." Cui Xingmeng suddenly realized that there are so many complicated family ties in the world, but in the Martian civilization that has given up on emotions, they have been summarized into two types by such a high-ranking person!

"And the 'biological foster care' that Miss Xingmeng asked about is the second type, and it does not involve any emotional grudges!" Xiao Min did not forget to answer Cui Xingmeng's original question.

"It doesn't involve any emotional grudges..." Yuan Yizhou has been educating Cui Xingmeng over the years! When it comes to Cui Xingmeng's parents, they are talking about interests to her, but Cui Xingmeng insists on talking about family ties with her parents. Naturally, the two sides can't make sense!

It seems that Yizhou is indeed more transparent than her in this regard!

"How do you decide whether to repay a favor or a grudge, to collect a debt or to pay off a debt?" Cui Xingmeng knew that even though she was the No. 1 seed in Shi Yi Ji, she was still not good at dealing with entangled grievances. !

"That depends on the parents and children's own practice in this life! Generally speaking, they follow the principle of reverse mirroring!" Xiao Min's answer was succinct.

"Reverse mirror principle?" Cui Xingmeng asked, not knowing why.

"Yes, it's basically like looking in the mirror, which means doing the opposite!" Xiao Min explained, "The party who seems to be collecting debts actually needs to repay the debt; but the party who seems to be complaining actually needs to repay the debt. It’s to repay the favor!”

After listening to Xiao Min's explanation, Cui Xingmeng's thoughts were drawn back to some of the old events between herself and her parents in the past few years!

Viewed on a longer time scale, this is indeed the case!

As the eldest daughter in a family of two children in the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, Cui Xingmeng was responsible for the entire family's hostility towards her mother's inability to give birth to a grandson before her younger brother was born!

As for the Cui family, as a third-generation merchant family, everything has a price already marked!

In order to study, she had to give her parents credit and pay it back with scholarships and new year's money;

When she goes to college, she has to borrow money from her parents and repay it with interest! With a monthly living expenses of 300 yuan, she struggled with which of her three meals a day she could add a dish;

After her brother was born, she completely became transparent!

She can't take what her brother has; she must give it to her brother if he wants it!

Throughout college, she had to work at least two to three odd jobs to support herself while studying!

Now it seems that her parents, as debt collectors, gave her the ability to make money and support herself early on; on the other hand, her younger brother, who is held in the palm of the family's hand, is still a giant baby!

Later, her mother asked her to pay the income from her work in the name of "womb usage fee" for life. The rent for the ten months she was in her mother's belly was worth the price of raising her brother for a lifetime!

She only made a few distinctions, and then her parents filed a lawsuit in court, claiming that she had been "abandoned"!

In the end, the judgment rejected her parents' request to support her brother for life, but the judge ordered her to pay all legal fees.

Because she was penniless, she redeemed the fixed investment fund she had saved from working for many years in advance to repay the expenses.

The result was unbiased and the stock market reached its highest point in 20 years!

The dividend income was nearly 50 times the principal she invested sporadically!

After repaying the cost of the lawsuit, it also brought her the first pot of gold in her life!

Thinking of this, she felt mixed emotions in her heart!

She didn't know whether she should be grateful or resentful to her parents. Their rogue debt collection and profit-seeking practices had actually made her financially free!

Now, after listening to Xiao Min's remarks, I realized that my parents in this life were talking to me about material things; but I wanted to get family affection from them!

Maybe this is what Ye Qinghe said, her final fate as the No. 1 seed of Shi Yi Ji!

Thinking of this, she made up her mind about how to deal with the smiles she gave to her family, and she felt a lot more relaxed!

At this time, Yuan Yizhou returned to the conference room after seeing off Ye Qinghe and Xia Qi!

Seeing the change in Cui Xingmeng's face, he knew that his lover had passed the family tribulation, let go of his obsession, and freed himself.

He slowly walked behind her, held her shoulders, and said softly, "Xia Qi and I just borrowed the space scanner. Do you want to take a look at them?"

Cui Xingmeng gently stroked Yuan Yizhou's hand on her shoulder and nodded gently, "Okay!"

After all, in this life, his parents raised him biologically. Even though he knew that they were just biological foster care and there was no family connection, Cui Xingmeng still felt a little lucky that in addition to treating him as a cash cow, they should still have some feelings for him!

Seeing that Cui Xingmeng agreed, Yuan Yizhou positioned the space scanner at Cui Xingmeng's brother's house, the double-story duplex in City B!

No one was seen yet, but Cui’s mother’s familiar voice, full of calculations, came over.

"If I had known, I would have asked that dead girl for that house in City A! Back then, in order for our son to live comfortably, I wanted a large area, so I bought this house! You see, in the past few years, the price of the house in City A has gone up. Three times, this property has fallen instead of rising, and we still have to pay such a high price for property heating!”

"She is responsible for heating the property. Why do you feel bad?" Dad Cui's voice was still cold.

"I feel sorry for our son. He works so hard every day and has to drive by himself. His sister doesn't even have a driver! If only we could save money on heating these properties, it would be great to have a driver for our son!" Cui Mother's voice was full of matter-of-factness.
