Chapter 576: A conversation between father and son
Cheng Guangnian remained motionless, but his heart was in a state of chaos.
Cheng Yu's words were really too offensive. Indeed, with his top-down character, he certainly found it unbearable and even furious.
Even though he could no longer express his anger, it didn't stop his anger from filling his mind.
But the anger only lasted for a moment. The more important message in Cheng Yu's words was not those that ridiculed Cheng Guangnian, but...
God picking system?
system?
This guy also made a system?
But, what the hell is the God Digging System?
God dig?
Cheng Guangnian can certainly understand these two words. Even if there are many Chinese characters with the same sound, it is really difficult to misunderstand these two words.
Strictly speaking, "神dig" is not one word, but two words made up of it.
But the pronunciation of the word "神" happens to be exactly the same as the word "shi" in "what", and among commonly used words, there are simply no words with the same pronunciation.
Thinking back to Cheng Guangnian's understanding of all aspects of Cheng Yu's life in Wudong over the past year, this boy seems to have a bit of Grandet's meaning, which has once puzzled Cheng Guangnian.
To say that just after returning, Cheng Yu was holding back his anger and wanted to cut off financially from Cheng Guangnian and get rid of his control. It's okay to say that he was a bit picky.
But later on, this kid also made a lot of money. The shares that were allocated to him gave him billions of net worth out of thin air. The Cheng Group's shareholder dividend at the end of the year was not a small amount. It was already far more than what he had.
I don’t know how high the cost of living was in the United States back then.
But Cheng Yu is always asking for money, and he has no self-consciousness as a successful young entrepreneur. Especially with Cheng Mo, he took away Cheng Mo's shares in Taohuayuan without spending a penny. It is really abnormal.
.
Therefore, Cheng Guangnian immediately thought of the exact word "divine stinging" and very accurately felt the basic behavior pattern of the divine stinging system, which is to force the host to stingy.
After all, he was a person who had owned a system before. Cheng Guangnian seemed to have figured out a lot of things at once.
Putting aside those incredible stingy behaviors, there are still some things that Cheng Yu shouldn't get involved in. Now, in Cheng Guangnian's mind, he got the answer to why Cheng Yu got involved.
Of course it is a system task.
As someone who has had a system before, even if his system is very different from Cheng Yu's, Cheng Guangnian still believes that no matter what system, it must require you to implement a certain behavior pattern, give you certain benefits, and then use some kind of
This will give you an opportunity to issue a series of tasks.
Completing tasks will undoubtedly lead to more and better rewards, while failure in tasks will inevitably be accompanied by corresponding punishments.
Cheng Guangnian didn't know anything more specific, but Cheng Yu's involvement in certain events that had nothing to do with him was fully explained.
No wonder this kid's development went smoothly after he returned to China, and almost all problems were solved in front of him. It turned out that this kid also received help from the system.
Regarding this, Cheng Guangnian was filled with bitterness.
I got a system, and my son also got a system.
Are these systems just for the Cheng family?
It is true that they have all received huge help because of the existence of the system, but it is precisely because of the failure of the system that Cheng Guangnian is lying here now, unable to think and unable to move.
As someone who once owned the system and had a tragic ending, Cheng Guangnian felt that he could even see Cheng Yu's future fate.
Is it possible that we, father and son, will have to lie here motionless like this from now on?
So what should I do if I prefer bamboo?
My husband is already like this, will my only son also be like this in the future?
Cheng Guangnian suddenly felt sad.
Beside his hospital bed, Cheng Yu also finished the buns in his mouth and began chatting with him as if talking to himself.
"I know you once had a system.
Although I don’t know what the model of your system is, I think most of your success should come from what the system provides, right?
When you first started your business, the system provided you with funds, so you were unable to explain your initial source of funds, and your second uncle and third uncle believed that you got the funds from your grandfather.
And in your future career, that system will continue to give you correct guidance, so you have never made a decision-making mistake in your life.
Of course, these can no longer be verified. Fortunately, the logic is relatively clear and you don’t need to answer me."
Cheng Yu picked up another bun, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
Cheng Guangnian was lying on the bed, wanting to tell his son that your guess was good, and why I haven't been close to you these years is also because of the system.
Even the things you are forced to do come from the system.
Fortunately, it seems that the things I forced you to do did not lead to worse results. Everything is fine with you and Xiaoyu...
Of course Cheng Guangnian would not know that Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu had actually begun to think about how to dissolve this marriage in name only.
Even though they have never mentioned it.
"Actually, I already had doubts about the fact that there is a system for you when I first returned to China.
But my system has clear regulations and I am not allowed to mention the existence of the system to anyone. Even if someone accidentally confirms the existence of such a system, I will be punished by the system."
Cheng Guangnian wanted to nod heavily and tell Cheng Yu that his system also had such a provision.
"That's why I didn't ask you. After all, once I ask, your system may punish you.
I even suspected that your indifference towards me and those unreasonable behaviors, such as your insistence that you do not intend to hand over the group to me to inherit it, are also due to the requirements of the system, right?"
Almost every word Cheng Yu said was spoken in Cheng Guangnian's heart. He wanted to tell Cheng Yu that what you said was right, but the reality was that he could only affirm Cheng Yu from the bottom of his heart.
"Swallowing Du's family is probably a requirement of the system mission. My marriage to Xiaoyu is also a system mission.
And you fell into a coma this time, probably because of the small mistakes and accidents that occurred in the task of embezzling Du Shi, which led to you not being able to complete the task on time, and you were punished by the system, right?"
Although he still couldn't give any positive or negative answer to Cheng Yu's guess, Cheng Guangnian suddenly felt a little relieved. At least Cheng Yu understood him.
If in the future...
Well, this if will probably always be an if.
But this does not prevent Cheng Guangnian from having such fantasies.
If Cheng Guangnian can still wake up in the future, then the relationship between their father and son will definitely become particularly good.
After all, Cheng Guangnian discovered that his son could actually understand him, including the system. And Cheng Yu was probably the only person in the world who could understand him so completely.
Okay, okay, even if I can't wake up like this, this may still be good news.
Cheng Yu continued: "Forget it, these speculations about your system are really meaningless, after all, you will never be able to answer me.
Let’s talk about this system in my body. You are probably the only person in this world that I can tell it to.
I can't hug a cat or a dog, just go talk to them."
Cheng Guangnian immediately concentrated all his attention...
This was a subconscious thought. After all, he seemed to have nothing else to do except listen to Cheng Yu's narrative.
Cheng Yu took a sip of soy milk and ate a small steamed bun before speaking.
"The system is called the God Stingy System, the god of gods, the stingy one.
I am probably the stingiest rich second generation in the world. Even if I eat a small wonton, I wish I could even pay someone back.
Obtaining this system is a very bizarre process. Well, do you know why I was anxious to return to China at the beginning of last year? No matter how much you objected, I insisted on staying in China?
I guess you were very surprised at the time. After all, although there was not much communication between father and son after I went to the United States, when I returned to China for vacation, we often had quarrels and never communicated well.
But when it comes to these things, I am actually a relatively obedient son, right?"
Cheng Guangnian silently said yes. Although Cheng Yu seemed to have a bad relationship with him, in fact, he was still very obedient when encountering some key issues.
It's a pity that Cheng Guangnian never seemed to praise Cheng Yu for these reasons.
This is also a kind of sadness.
"I went to the professor's office that day, and the professor told me that my credits were enough for me to get a degree certificate at USC.
He hoped that I could become his doctoral student, but I chose to refuse.
My idea at the time was that I finished college in two and a half years, and I wanted to have a good time.
I have even planned for the next year and a half. I will go to Europe, South America, the North and South Poles, and many places. While my classmates are still studying, I am afraid I will have to start work immediately after returning to China, so why not
During this period of time, let yourself take a good look at the planet we live in.
However, the plan was beautiful, but the reality was extremely cruel. After I left the professor's place, I fainted for no reason.
He was sent to the school hospital for examination and some clues were found, but no diagnosis was made.
Then I went to several major hospitals and had a thorough examination.
All the results have only one answer, I have a brain tumor.
To put it more directly, terminal brain cancer.
The best advice the doctors gave me at that time was that it would take about a week.
You think it's funny or not, I usually don't even have a headache, but I just found out that I have a tumor in my brain, and it's actually at an advanced stage.
Others always have half a year or three months in their late stages, but I only have one week?
I think, even if I die, at least I can choose to die in China. At least I can choose to see my mother again, stay with the old man, and maybe have a good meal with you before I die, and feel calm.
"
The shock in Cheng Guangnian's heart could not be described in words. How could a brain tumor appear so easily?
Cheng Yu continued: "So I bought a ticket, got on the plane, and planned to return to China.
Something happened on that plane. I don't know if that incident was eventually communicated to you. Maybe it was just an ordinary incident that was not considered special among the tens of thousands of flights your airline makes every year.
But that incident changed my destiny."
Cheng Yu slowly told Cheng Guangnian what happened on the plane.
Only then did Cheng Guangnian understand the kind of pressure Cheng Yu had been under for more than a year.
Fortunately, Cheng Yu finally told him: "I still have dozens of days to live, and then I have a task that has a deadline of half a year.
At the same time, I also got a balance of nearly 20,000 points.
Rough calculation, this is probably equivalent to four to five years of life.
As long as there are no drastic changes, I should be able to spend my life peacefully.
Of course, no one knows whether I will be able to complete the next mission I receive, after all, system missions are all weird and weird things."
Cheng Guangnian really disagreed with Cheng Yu's idea of not being prepared for danger in times of peace.
He is a real-life example.
But no matter what, according to the normal trajectory of life, Cheng Yu has been dead for more than a year, and he has already earned back more than a year.
"I've always been resistant to the tasks assigned to me by the system.
The mission is full of unknowns, who knows whether it can be completed.
I really hope that the system does not issue tasks. I just quietly stingy and earn points from three melons and two dates. I can always live to seventy or eighty, right?
But now, I really hope that the system will issue me tasks as soon as possible. The more tasks, the better. At least, I can try my best. One day, I can complete everything the system sets for me, and I will graduate from the system.
requirements, when you can get rid of the system.
Perhaps, I can choose to have the system transferred to you.
I asked the Shenhu System, and it said that your current situation is that all your gene chains are locked. If it enters your brain, it can completely help you cure it.
Of course, from then on, you have to be stingy and cautious like me, and welcome the tasks assigned to you by the system.
Fortunately, you have already used the system once, so you should be familiar with these tasks.
Although the tasks are different, your status and ability far exceed mine, so it shouldn't be too difficult to complete.
But those routine stingy behaviors are a challenge to you. In fact, I really want to see if you quit the driver, drive the car yourself, even sell the car, and use the cars of other group executives to get to and from get off work every day. What is the situation?
Maybe it’s quite fun…”
Even though he was lying on the hospital bed and couldn't even move his fingers, Cheng Guangnian still felt like his nose was sore and he felt like crying.
Of course, his nose is sour, but his lacrimal glands will not secrete tears, let alone shed tears.
"So, don't worry, try to endure the loneliness of being alone in a black cage.
This time may be very long, how many years?
ten years?
But maybe it's also short.
Based on my previous rate of points accumulation, I estimate that I can complete all the requirements of the system within ten years.
But the higher the level, the more generous the mission rewards will be. As long as you can help me pass the level smoothly every time, I guess it will take maybe two years?
How about three years?
When I get rid of the system, you can have your life again."
Cheng Yu laughed as he spoke.
He didn't know if Cheng Guangnian would believe what he said, but he believed that what he said could at least give Cheng Guangnian more hope and help him survive this most intolerable time in his life.
Moreover, Cheng Yu did not tell Cheng Guangnian that the system did not actually answer him. When he finally got rid of the system, whether the system could enter Cheng Guangnian's brain.
There is no need to tell Cheng Guangnian these things, just give him hope.
Looking at Cheng Guangnian on the hospital bed, Cheng Yu knew of course that the nurse would wipe his skin, but now Cheng Yu just wanted to help Cheng Guangnian wipe his face.
Walking into the bathroom, Cheng Yu turned on the hot water faucet and washed a towel.
After the pillow was half dry, Cheng Yu returned to the hospital bed with a towel and carefully helped Cheng Guangnian wipe his face.
Lying there, Cheng Guangnian could feel the warm towel wiping his face. Of course, he could imagine what kind of actions Cheng Yu was doing.
"It's very uncomfortable. Such a strong person now has to ask two caregivers to help you wipe your body."
Cheng Yu smiled and finished wiping Cheng Guangnian's face, returned to the bathroom, and hung up the towel pillow.
"I don't know if my mother has told you that she has become the acting chairman of the group and has taken over your affairs.
It's definitely not as good as yours. After all, she doesn't have any systematic help.
But don't worry, she doesn't have it like I do.
Didn't I tell you? In my system rewards, there is an investment cheat that can check the returns on some investments.
From now on, I will help you keep an eye on my mother. Before she makes a decision, I will use all means to help her ensure the feasibility and success rate.
We can't wait until you wake up and the Cheng Group becomes someone else's.
No matter what decision you will make for the Cheng Group at that time, whether to continue to develop or sell the shares and go home and live a peaceful life as an old man, I hope it will be decided by you personally."
At this time, Cheng Guangnian really wanted to tell Cheng Yu not to believe too much in the special abilities given by the system. It can be given to you and taken away at any time.
However, he couldn't tell.
Fortunately, Cheng Yu's performance today gave him the feeling that Cheng Yu had always been extremely suspicious of the system.
In this regard, unlike Cheng Guangnian, Cheng Guangnian has actually been quite dependent on everything the system has given him since he got the system.
Knowing that he was successful and famous, it wasn't until everything was on the right track that he finally seemed to realize that he should find a way to get out of this system.
As for Cheng Yu, from his words, it seems that from the first moment he got the system, he had a deep-rooted idea that he must get rid of the system.
Perhaps, Cheng Yu is a more independent individual at heart. Even if the system gives him a second life, he does not want to survive under the control of the system.
Son, you can accept and use everything the system gives you, but you must not feel content with it.
I just made that mistake!
Cheng Guangnian could only pray silently in his heart, hoping that Cheng Yu could recognize this earlier, or that he had already recognized this.
Cheng Yu tidied up the bedside table of the hospital bed and threw all the things he had used into the trash can.
"Okay, Lao Cheng, it's getting late, and I should go deal with the latest tasks.
In the future, I will come over to chat with you whenever I have nothing to do. Or maybe, in a few days, when my mother's mood becomes more stable, or when she chooses to give up treating you, we will take you back to rest.
I can't say. I know very well that with the current medical conditions, it is impossible to even discover the cause of your illness, let alone cure you.
After I take you back, I will find someone to read you the news every day to keep you informed about the outside world.
This way, when you wake up, you won't be out of touch with the world."
Cheng Guangnian was so happy that he felt extremely proud of having such a son.
"Then I'll leave first. Don't think about it if you have nothing to do. Remember, I will fix my system as soon as possible and then get it to you so that you can wake up."
Cheng Yu picked up Cheng Guangnian's hand and made it into a fist. He also made a fist and touched him lightly.
"Come on, let's go!"
Cheng Yu walked to the door, opened it, and called back the nurse not far away.
When he went downstairs, he took out his mobile phone and called Lao Bian.
