The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 508 It doesn’t matter anymore
"...This situation of not being able to make money continued until 95, and my parents complained about me. I thought about whether to accept those hints...I eventually deviated from my predetermined fate, found a way to redeem my contract, and then, as if blessed, tried every means to break into Wall Street and break out again."

However, some things are in the past and can never be undone. I can understand my parents' actions back then, and I know some modeling agencies specifically target families with only one child, but I still can't forgive them for almost becoming accomplices.

So, I bought this farm and handed it over to them to manage... well, not really manage, those things are naturally done by workers and servants, and that's it.”

At this point, Angela finally finished speaking, her tone remaining calm, but her brows betrayed her exhaustion.

Then someone's voice rang in my ears: "So what was your original destiny?"

Angela tensed up instantly, a chill ran through her, and her vest even felt like her most private parts had been exposed.

But she tried her best to remain calm and didn't turn her head away: "Hmm?"

"Didn't you just say that you've deviated from your original destiny?" Xu Jiuyang reminded him. "In your opinion, what should your original destiny have been?"

Angela breathed a sigh of relief; it wasn't what she had thought, but she was also inexplicably a little unhappy.

She composed herself: "Given your understanding of America, can't you guess it?"

“I can guess that, but I’d like to hear your opinion, as we may have different views,” Xu Jiuyang said with a shrug.

Angela thought for a moment, then continued, "Of course, it's about giving in and then becoming a famous model through your own abilities, or even... even becoming someone's muse."

She tried hard not to clench her teeth as she said the last sentence.

"And then?" Xu Jiuyang asked again.

“Then, perhaps she’ll continue modeling and maintain her status; or perhaps she’ll save up a lot of money, retire, get married, and have children,” Angela sighed.

“It sounds plausible, but you said…” Xu Jiuyang wanted to say something, but in the end he just shook his head. “With your personality and abilities, unless you have really bad luck, you could definitely become one of the successors of the top five supermodels.”

Angela's lips twitched. She had almost forgotten everything from her first simulation ten years ago, but one scene remained vivid in her memory: Karl Lagerfeld feigning regret that she couldn't replace Cindy Crawford.

Despite the terrible future, she, being strong-willed by nature, still felt somewhat resentful about this scene.

"Alright, stop thinking about it so much. At least you've taken control of your own destiny now," Xu Jiuyang said from the side.

“Really?” Angela gave a bitter smile and finally turned to look at the man in front of her. “Sometimes I think so, but sometimes I also wonder if I’ve jumped from one cage to an even bigger one.”

"What do you mean?" Xu Jiuyang asked curiously.

"Are you really unaware, or are you pretending?" Angela questioned first, but quickly shook her head: "I've reviewed the actions of the past few years many times, and then I came to a conclusion... I don't know how to put it."

"What is it?" Xu Jiuyang chimed in perfectly.

“Without you, I would either have gone back to Wall Street and become an accomplice to some people for a little profit, or I would have stayed in China and become an ordinary white-collar executive.” Angela sighed deeply.

"Am I that important?" Xu Jiuyang couldn't help but chuckle.

Angela paused for a moment, then suddenly leaned close to him, looking directly into his eyes: "Tell me, are you the devil?"

"Do I look like I have red skin, two horns on my head, and a pointed tail?" Xu Jiuyang countered. "But you do influence me, seduce me, and lead me down a path full of... chaos," Angela said earnestly.

So Xu Jiuyang waved his hand in front of her and looked puzzled: "You didn't ask the flight attendant for any alcoholic drinks the whole way."

Angela rolled her eyes at his unserious behavior. Just as she was about to say something, he pinched her cheek and kissed her on the lips.

After a short while, the two parted, and a blush rose on Angela's beautiful face, making her look exceptionally radiant.

“Darling, once you’ve made a decision, don’t regret it. How can you do everything perfectly in this life? Besides, what you perceive as a beautiful scene may not actually be real,” Xu Jiuyang said. “The future is not static. As long as you don’t mind, I will always walk with you.”

Angela stared at him for a while: "Okay, I'm sure now."

"What's confirmed?" Xu Jiuyang smiled.

“You were sent by the devil to tempt me into depravity,” Angela said with certainty.

"So... are you planning to fall into depravity now?" Xu Jiuyang asked half-jokingly.

"I've already fallen into depravity." The woman, who had been gazing at him for a moment, leaned in and kissed him.

They separated after a few moments, and then she lowered her voice: "I heard that at high altitudes, blood vessels fill up very quickly because of the air pressure. Do you want to try it?"

Xu Jiuyang clicked his tongue: "Let's give it a try."

It's pointless to dwell on whether the devil tempted her now. Angela knows very well that once the simulation system gave her the solution, whether her actions were intentional or unintentional, they had already predetermined certain things.

However, Xu Jiuyang was right. Nothing in life is perfect. Even with this simulation system, she would find better ways to do things when reviewing them.

So why bother with so much? Let go of what you should let go of, and take a long-term view… Fuck! Even so, I can't let anyone have it easy! Why should I be the only one unhappy?! If I have to stick with him now, then I definitely won't let him get away with it, hehehe!

Xu Jiuyang had no idea what Angela was thinking, nor did he know that she had eaten several Soul Hall elders. After returning to the capital and resting briefly, he took her back to his hometown.

This time, even the father couldn't stay calm. Angela is worth billions of dollars, surpassing Lee Yoon-hyung, and she's a standard blonde, blue-eyed Western woman. How could a woman like that be pursuing your son?
"What's the problem? You were just surprised when Yunxin came back last year, weren't you?" Xu Jiuyang said, puzzled.

“It’s different. After all, they are Asians, specifically Koreans. Their aesthetics and diet are not much different from those of Chinese people. This Angela…” The old man looked like he was “hard to say.”

“When you were working on projects in Beijing and Shanghai, you met foreigners before. They adapt to China quite well, so don’t make such a fuss,” Xu Jiuyang said with a sneer.

"Tell me the truth, were you... were you being kept by them?" The old man found it difficult to say, but his face was serious.

Although he was taken aback, Xu Jiuyang still answered seriously: "Dad, have you ever seen a woman who keeps a man come home with him and pretend to be a daughter-in-law?"

The old man didn't answer, but judging from his expression, he seemed to want to say something like: it's hard to judge the tastes of rich people.

So Xu Jiuyang dropped a bombshell: "They've already discussed this. They'll take turns coming over to see which one you think is suitable to be their daughter-in-law."
