[CFCS] Chapter 147
Arc 11.2 - Game Developer
Translated by guilty
Jing Yang collapsed on the bed, too exhausted to have a shower. He pulled over the quilt, half-asleep and half-awake, and opened the original memory.
As Jing Yang had predicted, the four people he had just met were the ones he needed to deal with and exact revenge on in this life.
Xi Le's parents had a business marriage. They not only have never loved each other, but they each have their own loved ones. They were forced to marry due to family pressure.
The lover of Xi Le's mother actually had a good family background, but the family did not approve of their relationship. To help the company grow, the family forcibly separated them and then forced her to marry Xi Guangshan.
Xi Le's mother was heartbroken because she couldn't be with someone she loved. Her family kept her at home and forbade her from going out at the time. She also attempted suicide three times but was always caught because she was being watched.
Her grandfather told her that because she was born into this family and has benefited from everything that their family has provided for her, she should contribute to the development of the family as it should be.
Xi Le’s mother also said that she was willing to repay the family in other ways, but she would never accept marriage. Her grandfather, however, refused to agree. She was forced to marry Xi Guangshan right away in order to marry into the Xi family.
Jing Yang couldn't help but sneer sarcastically when he saw this. What he despises the most are the so-called elder who, in order to cover up their incompetence, told others to pay under the name of honor.
Jing Yang feels it’s very despicable, whether it is the ancient emperor and the princess or the modern day parents that sacrifices the happiness of their children for the sake of the family business. And the sentence ‘this family offers you everything then you should sacrifice for this family’ is what he hates the most. It's a terrible shame when someone is born just to be used as a tool. Should they sacrifice their own happiness because you gave birth to them? Did you ask them if they wanted to be born in such an environment in the first place?
No one has the ability to choose their own birth. It would be unfair if he couldn't choose his own way of life and happiness either. In Jing Yang’s view, anyone who enters the world should be a free and independent individual. You gave birth to me; I have no right to choose; therefore, raising me should be your responsibility. I owe you a debt of gratitude for helping me in growing older and would repay you. I might even repay it for life. However, love and happiness are private matters, and no one has the authority to make someone sacrifice.
Because of the family's persecution, Xi Le's mother eventually married Xi Guangshan, but she refused to be intimated with him for a long time. Marriage between two families inevitably requires the birth of children in order to strengthen the bond. As a result, Xi Le's mother, who was married to the Xi family and had no personal freedom, became pregnant.
Xi Guangshan had a woman he loved before he married, and that woman is Xi Rui's mother, Wen Zhu. Xi Le's mother resisted too hard before marriage and attempted three suicides, thus she almost lost all her freedom both before and after the marriage. Xi Guangshan, unlike Xi Le's mother, did not put up a strong fight. He is also a man, which cannot be kept at home, therefore he has a lot of freedom.
Xi Guangshan has always maintained a romantic relationship with Wen Zhu, and Xi Le's paternal grandparents are also aware of this, but because parents are more biased of their own children, Xi Le's mother was never able to meet her former lover, but the relationship between Xi Guangshan and Wen Zhu was tolerated.
Xi Le was five years old when Xi Rui was born. Xi Guangshan's parents did not take Wen Zhu's mother and child seriously at the time. Even if Xi Rui was born, they never considered bringing him back. Xi Le was the only grandson they valued in their eyes.
But Xi Guangshan was different. Because he couldn't marry the woman he loved but couldn't oppose his parents, he blamed Xi Le's mother, and he was also very cold and disgusted with Xi Le. He has never hugged Xi Le since he was born. In his heart, the small family outside is his true home, and only Xi Rui is his beloved son.
Xi Le was raised by his paternal grandparents and received a very good education from childhood. The difference between Xi Le and Xi Guangshan is that Xi Le has a brilliant mind, whereas Xi Guangshan, according to his grandfather, is an idiot who cannot support the family. As a result, Xi Le has been groomed to be an heir. Xi Le chose to learn computer programming prior to the rise of the gaming industry. Xi Guangshan believed Xi Le was wasting his time by studying computers, but Xi Le's grandfather supported him.
Later, it was discovered that Xi Le had made the right decision and that he was a gifted game developer. He effectively managed the company's transformation under his leadership, avoiding the fate of the company being eliminated by the passage of time. He rose to the top of the company with the help of his grandfather.
Xi Guangshan was embarrassed to be compared to the son he disliked, and he felt very uneasy. Xi Rui was a child he raised and taught himself. As a result, Xi Guangshan always wanted Xi Rui to be the heir. This idea has never changed.
Xi Le's mother died when he was a teenager. She told Xi Le before she died that death was a relief for her, so he didn't have to be too depressed. But Xi Le was still depressed. He was aware that his mother was constantly in pain, and that those who caused her pain, in addition to his uncaring father, were also his respected grandparents.
Xi Le thought that once he was strong enough, he should make his mother leave this painful house and pursue her own happiness. However, she couldn't wait until that day and died as a result of her rapidly deteriorating health.
It didn't take Xi Le long to successfully change the company and formally assume leadership. While on vacation, Xi Le’s paternal grandparents got into a car accident and died. As the first in line, his father, Xi Guangshan, inherited all of their property and shares. He inherited his grandfather's chairmanship and became the company's largest shareholder. Xi Le thought that if it was known that he was competing with his father for the position of chairman, it would harm the company. After all, they are still living in a time of filial piety. So he didn't argue with his father and let him become the chairman, thinking that he didn't know anything about the company anyway and that he still had to let him manage it.
Xi Guangshan had made no contributions to the company. Xi Le's management is vital to the company's success. Xi Guangshan, on the other hand, frequently used the power of the chairman to make some inexplicable decisions, and then it was Xi Le who cleaned up the mess for him. So, when Jing Yang met He Lang at the banquet, He Lang was actually criticizing Xi Guangshan, not Xi Le.
With Xi Le's abilities, he can actually leave the company and do it on his own. But Xi Le reasoned that, while Xi Guangshan was not kind to him, his grandparents were. Perhaps because of the intergenerational relationship, grandparents treat their grandson better than their own son. And because Xi Le had invested so much time and energy into this company, he couldn't just abandon it.
When Xi Le's grandparents were still alive, they refused to let Xi Rui's mother, Wen Zhu, enter the house. Even if Xi Le's mother died, they would not allow Xi Guangshan to marry Wen Zhu, and they would only recognize Xi Le as a grandson.
This made Xi Guangshan feel very obligated to this mother and son, and he sought to compensate them. So, after Xi Le's grandparents died, Xi Guangshan married Wen Zhu almost immediately. Xi Guangshan naturally wanted to make Xi Rui the person in charge of the company, but this was not an easy task.
Xi Guangshan couldn't wait to welcome Xi Rui into the company once he graduated. He wanted to wait until Xi Rui received his degree, then take over all of Xi Le's rights and make Xi Rui the rightful heir.
Xi Le was murdered in the previous life by those people. Not only was the company taken away from him, but he was also killed in a car accident that Du Jie and Wen Zhu planned.
Du Jie is the son of Xi Guangshan's close friend. Du Jie's parents died when he was a child, and Xi Guangshan took him in as his adopted son.
Du Jie has always plotted against the Xi family's property. He had previously pursued Xi Le because Xi Le's face was strikingly similar to his mother's, and it was very beautiful. Although Xi Le wasn't sure whether he liked men or women, he didn't like Du Jie, so he not only rejected him rightfully, but also warned him not to act improperly against himself, or he would fight back.
Du Jie's self-esteem had been harmed, and he had loathed Xi Le since then, so he decided to approach Xi Rui. Du Jie has a good appearance, but his character, which can be defined as a beast in disguise, is not very good. Xi Le despised him because he recognized his true nature and refused to interact with him. He was only able to tolerate situations that could not be avoided at work.
But Du Jie and Xi Rui hit it off right away. The two got together quickly. Xi Guangshan was overjoyed to see his adopted son and favorite son have such a good relationship. But Xi Guangshan had no idea that his own parents' car accident was staged by Du Jie and Wen Zhu. What's more incredible is that Xi Rui is not Xi Guangshan's biological child at all, but rather the children of Wen Zhu and another man.
When Jing Yang saw this, he couldn't stop laughing. This is such a drama. For many years, Xi Guangshan has been raising kids for others and making wedding gowns for others, but he is completely unaware of it. It's far too simple to deal with Xi Guangshan. Simply revealing that Xi Rui is not his own will be enough to strike him down.
(T/N : behavior that is both pointless and self-sacrificing)
Jing Yang, on the other hand, did not aim to reveal everything right away. He had to wait for Xi Guangshan to be completely destroyed before striking him with a fatal blow. Because Xi Guangshan was actually responsible for the death of Xi Le's mother. He changed her medicine, causing her health to quickly depleted and die.
Xi Guangshan thought that if Xi Le's mother died, his parents would agree to him marrying Wen Zhu. But he had no idea that even after she died, his parents would still oppose him marrying Wen Zhu. However, he felt no remorse for her death. Because he already hated that woman who was thinking about another man in his heart.
Xi Guangshan still had a relationship with Wen Zhu, but he didn't want Xi Le's mother to be thinking about another man, so he did a lot of things to her. Jing Yang won’t feel that he is being too harsh on a man like Xi Guangshan, no matter how miserable his ending will be.
After taking over all of the memories and understanding the things that were not in the memory, Jing Yang immediately fell into a deep sleep.
How mysogynistic, this bastard really has to suffer for everything he did to his 1st wife and Xi Le. He can love someone outside of marriage but his wife can't? She wasn't even cheating on him, they were both forced into marriage but he was the only one with an affair. He even murdered her without remorse. I'm looking forward to this POS' impending doom.
