Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!
Chapter 18 - 018 Memory is chaotic

Chapter 18: 018 Memory is chaotic

Yan Yueqing flipped through the medical case a couple of times, and her brain frantically recalled the plot from the book, searching for any overlooked details.

Suddenly, inspiration struck!

She recalled that in the parts of the story she had skimmed through, Qin Youran seemed to mention to Jun Lii about planning to invest in a "Nate" pharmaceutical factory.

Why would a celebrity invest in a drug factory when not busy?

Definitely for Yan Wang!

She immediately put down the medical case, grabbed her phone, but before she could open Baidu, the 999+ red notifications on the Momo app abruptly reminded her—

Oh right, she had posted there asking for help!

To reasonably spend money for Tang Tang, she had made a post online, and as a result of shopping at the LV store, she ended up forgetting about it.

As she clicked on it, Yan Yueqing’s gaze immediately fell on a small essay pinned at the top of the popular comments.

"A discourse on how to invest in a minor?" She quickly skimmed through it, "Wow! This Quiet Little Prince is amazing!"

Because of their status, minors can’t handle stocks, but they can handle shares, right?

Funds, auctions, investments...

Yan Yueqing felt as if she had opened the door to a new world!

Following that, she saw the Quiet Little Prince’s only reply: "Five years old, independent, free."

Five years old?

The bigshot is still too humble!

He must not want to expose his identity and is just teasing the netizens.

Yan Yueqing clicked into the Quiet Little Prince’s private messages and left a note: "Hello Little Prince, I am the original poster, Curved Moon. I have some investment questions and would like to consult with you. Is it possible to leave contact information?"

In the house, the restless Yan Wang picked up his tablet and happened to see the private message from Curved Moon.

He pursed his lips, replying, "Okay."

The two quickly added each other on QQ.

Spending money for Tang Tang was an enormous mission!

Ten million within one week!

Now, three days had passed, and she had only spent three million.

It was too painful!

Yan Yueqing had never imagined that one day she would be distressed about spending money.

That would sound outrageously extravagant if she said it out loud!

But she was truly troubled!

After adding each other as friends, she got right to the point: "Hello, Little Prince, I’m thinking of making some investments for a relative’s child. The thing is, the timeframe is quite short, and I’d prefer to invest several million in a matter of days. Do you have any projects to recommend?"

Probably for fear of being rejected, Yan Yueqing hastily added another message: "Don’t worry, don’t worry, the cost isn’t important, nor is the short-term return, even if it results in a loss, it doesn’t matter!"

As long as the money is spent in a reasonable way, that’s all that matters!

Quiet Little Prince clearly hesitated for a moment before replying, "Okay."

Then, he started discussing some current investment channels with her.

Tang Tang is Director Tang’s child, and setting up a fund requires too much paperwork, not to mention persuading Director Tang, which is nothing but trouble!

But shares are different.

With so many companies on the market, it’s simple to invest in shares in Tang Tang’s name!

The two hit it off in their conversation.

Quiet Little Prince seemed like a composed elder, clearing the fog for Yan Yueqing and finding her a good path to spend her money.

She was full of admiration, "Bigshot, you’re incredible! You must have been in the finance industry for many years, huh? Impressive!"

Reading this line, Yan Wang’s fingertips paused.

Not only the netizens but even the original poster, Curved Moon, didn’t believe that he was five years old.

Indeed, who would believe that?

He was about to reply when a quarrel suddenly erupted from the outside.

It was Yan Kang’s furious voice, "Yan Yueqing, you still have the face to come back?"

Yan Yueqing put down her phone, frowning, "Yan Kang?"

Yan Kang was her cousin, and the person her grandfather was currently focusing on grooming to take over.

Originally, the Yan Family had a very outstanding successor - her father, Yan Ming. Unfortunately, fate was unkind, and he died in a car accident when she was eight years old.

After suffering this blow, her grandfather fell seriously ill and was hospitalized. Seeing his granddaughter too young to take over the company, he had no choice but to follow his brother’s suggestion, to have his grandson Yan Kang adopted and forcibly developed.

Yan Kang was very obedient, showing filial piety to his grandfather above and taking care of his sister below. After a few years of acting, he successfully coaxed the old man into giving him all the important projects.

That’s when his true nature revealed itself - he started gambling!

From the initial tens of thousands to later several million and ten million, Yan Kang lost more than he won and began robbing Peter to pay Paul to cover the holes.

By the time it became unsustainable, he had already amassed a debt of one billion!

After the grandfather cleaned up his mess, Yan Kang did restrain himself for a while.

But a leopard never changes its spots, and as his grandfather’s health deteriorated, he became even more reckless in his behavior.

The debt of five million that the original owner owed was designed by Yan Kang, intending to drag another person down with him.

Seeing him now, Yan Yueqing subconsciously felt some aversion.

Yan Kang’s smile was like that of a venomous snake, "I see your audacity is growing! Daring to reveal the existence of the bastard child on the show? Don’t you want to stay in the entertainment industry anymore?"

Yan Yueqing frowned, "My son is not a bastard!"

"Not a bastard, then who’s his dad?" Yan Kang, reeking of alcohol, pressed in, "And how many years has the Yan Family been mocked because of this little bastard?"

Mocked?" laughed Yan Yueqing, "If he thought it was shameful, grandfather wouldn’t have publicly acknowledged my son’s existence! On the contrary, it’s you... Yan Kang, wasn’t it really your one-billion gambling debt that brought mockery upon us?!"

"With the Yan Family being so wealthy, what does it matter if I lose a billion? Besides, I can lose because I have the ability to earn it back!" Yan Kang brazenly declared, "As for you... heh, who in City C didn’t know the Second Miss of the Yan Family was pure as ice? What happened in the end? The goddess in the hearts of countless rich second generations, who condescended to get pregnant and come back instead of honoring the marriage arrangement with the Lin Family? Because of this, I’ve been unable to lift my head in front of Lin Qiming to this very day!"

Yan Yueqing’s eyes became slightly cold, "So, after I entered the entertainment industry, you ordered the official blog to deny my identity to teach me a lesson?"

"You wanted to prove yourself in the entertainment industry, but the Yan Family does not want to be associated with it. What’s wrong with denying our relationship with you?"

"Is it grandfather’s decision or yours?"

"What does it matter whose decision it is? Yan Yueqing, do you have no shame? On the one hand, you want to sever ties with the family, and on the other, you still use the Yan Family’s status outside? If you were really capable, you would take your son and roll out! Using the Yan Family’s money and still having the gall to decry the Yan Family not being right?" Yan Kang glanced at her with disdain, "Do you know how much money your son costs in the hospital each month? Fifty thousand! Which family can afford to spend like this on him? How much do you earn in the entertainment circle? Can you make up for these five years of deficits?"

Listening to Yan Kang’s words, Yan Yueqing’s mind suddenly became a bit chaotic.

The book didn’t focus much on Yan Yueqing’s family, and her impression of the Yan Family all came from the original owner’s memories.

From those memories, she knew that the Yan Family always kept their son lying in the hospital, and every penny the original owner had earned was thoroughly plundered.

To the original owner, the Yan Family was akin to a vampiric existence!

But... there seemed to be some conflicts here!

Yan Wang had been in the VIP ward since birth. If the Yan Family hadn’t agreed, the original owner wouldn’t have been able to afford such expensive costs.

Earning a lot in the entertainment industry is only feasible for top-tier stars! For a small artist who has been in the circle for three years and is still at the eighteenth tier, even earning enough to support herself is problematic, let alone her son’s medical expenses.

Moreover, the original owner’s memories from childhood to pregnancy were as vivid as personal experience.

However, the memories from recuperating at home to entering the entertainment industry had become abnormally vague!

It’s not exactly vague...

How should that feeling be described?

If giving birth were a dividing point, before giving birth her memories were like watching a TV show, with all details engraved in her heart; after giving birth, it was more like reading a book, where she knew the plot, but the memories depended on the textual description and weren’t very realistic.

After being scolded by Yan Kang, she was a little hesitant to make a judgment for the moment about who was telling the truth, managing only to respond calmly, "I will take responsibility for my son’s affairs from now on. The Yan Family needn’t worry about it."

Yan Kang laughed, "Well, if you’ve got such backbone, then pay next month’s hospital fees yourself!"

When it came to paying, Yan Yueqing was very proactive, "No need for cousin’s concern."

Yan Kang nodded repeatedly, "The hospital has surveillance! I will pass your words to grandfather, and from now on, we won’t spend a penny on this little bastard!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the lights inside the room suddenly brightened.

Both turned their heads at the same time.

In front of the huge French windows, Yan Wang stood quietly in his place.
