Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 382 Is this how you repay me?
Yang Guilan watched the entire video. The video's content was somewhat misleading; it only mentioned that Tianjin Capital previously had a shareholder named Lin Lang, but the information had changed, and the former Lin Lang had disappeared, replaced by several other companies.

The video ended without revealing who Lin Lang was, as no relevant information could be found online, nor were any other companies associated with him discovered.

Yang Guilan knew very little about shareholders or large companies, but she noticed that one of them was called Juhe Company, which was located in Tianshui County.

Based on these two points, she felt that Lin Lang, the former shareholder of Tianjin Capital, must be the one she knew.

Otherwise, who in Tianshui County could become a shareholder of Tianjin Capital?

After seeing this video, she suddenly became interested in Tianjin Capital, since it was her son-in-law's company.

She came across Yan Li on social media, and even learned about Yan Li's identity and that she was going on a blind date from the comments...

Then, she found the account of Yan's assistant. She heard Lin Lang's voice and saw some photos that Yan Li had taken in his hometown.

She was all too familiar with the backgrounds and people in those photos.

At that moment, she realized something was wrong...

That evening, Yang Guilan called Yang Xi.

"Xixi, tell me, does Langlang already have a girlfriend? Are you his mistress?"

Yang Xi: "..."

She really wanted to say, "Mom, you overestimate me. I'm not even a potential mistress."

However, she could clearly sense that her mother's tone was a little nervous, so she quickly said, "Mom, what are you thinking? My brother and I are dating normally, and I'm his only girlfriend."

"Don't lie to me. I saw that Yan Li go to Lang Lang's house. You didn't know about this?"

"Ah I……"

"you know?"

"I……"

"Are you trying to drive me crazy? Do you even know what's going on?"

"Mom, can I talk to you in person on Sunday?"

"No, you have to tell me now! If you say you have nothing to do with Langlang, I'll be discharged right now!"

"Aren't you forcing me to say I have a relationship with him? Can't you just wait a few days? I don't have class on Friday, and I'm going to Shanghai after school on Thursday."

Yang Guilan had basically understood by now, and her mind was very clear.

"Langlang said that on purpose so that I could focus on getting better, right?"

"mom……"

Yang Xi didn't dare to confirm anything about it; she was afraid.

Yang Guilan sighed, "Langlang is a good person. Have I been a burden to you?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xi felt a tremor run through her body. "No, no, no! Mom, absolutely not! Please believe me, don't overthink it. I'll buy a ticket and come to see you right now. Wait for me for ten hours, and I'll be in Shanghai in ten hours."

"You should focus on your studies first. Come over when you're free on Saturday or Sunday, and we can talk about this properly then."

"Really? Mom, please stop overthinking these next few days, okay?"

"Don't worry, no matter what, I will definitely see you."

"Mom, please don't say that. I'm begging you. How am I supposed to live without you?"

"Mom doesn't want to be a burden to you. You and Langlang could have been together..."

"Mom, it has nothing to do with you. On the contrary, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how to talk to Lin Lang, let alone experience being boyfriend and girlfriend with him for a few days. He and I are from different worlds. There is no possibility between us in my life."

As Yang Xi spoke, she started to cry.

Yang Guilan asked, "Why is it impossible? You're not a burden anymore, and we grew up together..."

"Mom, Lin Lang has a job. His current girlfriend can provide him with a lot of help at work. There is no one else in the world who can replace his current girlfriend. I am just a student."

"Can't you make money too?"

"The little money I earn is insignificant compared to his career. Yan Li comes from a family worth tens of billions, and her family's connections and resources are a hundred times, ten thousand times, better than mine. She's also a financial expert, while I know nothing about finance. She can take care of Lin Lang in every way, while I'm just a student."

"Are stray dogs very rich?"

"He's rich! He's incredibly rich! Richer than any billionaire you've ever heard of, ten times richer than the richest person in our Tianshui County!"

Yang Xi is still a college student, while the group at Tianjin Capital is mostly composed of internet professionals, with college students making up a large portion of the group.

In the eyes of college students, Tianjin Capital is comparable to BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent). Many college students embarked on the path of buying funds because of Tianjin Capital, and their WeChat Moments are filled with screenshots of their fund data posted by their classmates every day.

Even if some people only bought a few hundred, a few thousand, or even tens of thousands of yuan worth of goods, very few of them did.

Young people's exploration of Tianjin Capital is also comprehensive.

The most frequently mentioned topic is the value of Tianjin Capital.

Yang Xi knew very well that Lin Lang had shares in Tianjin Capital, but for some reason, they had been replaced by several other companies.

Those companies must be controlled by Lin Lang.

In other words, Lin Lang still holds 40% of Tianjin Capital's shares, which are now worth at least 10 billion yuan.

Yang Guilan took a while to catch her breath before saying, "Langlang is really too promising... Sigh... I'm the one who dragged you down. If it weren't for me, you might have gotten into a good university, and then..."

"Mom, it's no use for me to get into the best university. The gap between me and him is too big. Even if I graduate from the best university, I'll only be able to work for his company at best, while he might become the world's richest man in a few years."

"Okay, Mom knows. You go to sleep now. Come to Shanghai in a few days."

"Mom, I can't sleep, I want to talk to you. Don't think too much, okay? I can really earn money now, and we can live a good life in the future. I'll buy a house in a big city, and we'll live there."

"You're not going back to your hometown? You insist on keeping two plots of land for your house, isn't it because you want to be able to see Langlang back home?"

"No, no... It's just that we didn't have much money back then. I was afraid that the expenses would be too high in the big city. When I went back for summer vacation, I sold all of our family's homestead."

The homestead land in my hometown has a certificate, and it can be transferred within the same township.

In the past, a plot of land used to be worth over 100,000 yuan, but now it's worthless, maybe only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.

The house? It's already a 20-year-old house, so it's worthless, not even worth mentioning.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you from now on."

"Then please don't overthink it."

"Don't think about it, don't think about it. The doctor is here, probably to let me sleep. Xixi, you should go to sleep too, it's getting late..."

"Are you really alright?"

"If something's wrong, would I have been able to talk to you for so long? I'm hanging up..."

Yang Guilan hung up the phone, but the doctor didn't actually come over.

She just felt that time was running out and wanted to call Lin Lang.

It was already past eleven o'clock, and Lin Lang might have already fallen asleep.

But if she doesn't take the medicine today, she's afraid she'll overthink it and then she won't be able to understand it anymore. She knows she has a problem, she's always known, but once her emotions run high, she simply can't control herself.

……

Lin Lang had just finished get off work and was still in Yan Li's office, planning to grab something to eat before heading back to his hotel to sleep.

Then, I received an unexpected phone call.

Yang Guilan has his phone number, but she has never called him.

Lin Lang answered the call quickly and asked, "Auntie, are you still awake? Is there something you need?"

"Langlang, did I disturb your rest?"

"No, I just got off work, and it'll be a while before I go to bed."

Lin Lang emphasized that he had just gotten off work, so if Yang Guilan asked him to go to the hospital, he could find an excuse.

I definitely won't go. Even if I do go, it will be to confront Yang Guilan directly.

"I'm glad I didn't disturb you. I just suddenly remembered something and wanted to chat with you for a bit."

"Please speak, I'm listening."

"Actually, Xixi has always looked up to you since she was little. She even said she wanted to go to the same university as you... It's just that I was a disappointment, and she didn't study hard in high school, so she did poorly on her exams..."

"Yes, I know all of that."

"Sometimes I think, if I hadn't been a burden to Xixi, would you and her have been together long ago..."

At this moment, Lin Lang listened to the voice on the other end of the phone while contacting the doctor on duty via WeChat.

"Dr. Zhang, has something happened to Yang Guilan?"

Soon, Dr. Zhang said, "Yes, she must have found out about your situation, Mr. Lin, online and started to have doubts about our previous relationship. She just called her daughter, Yang Xi, and we've been listening in..."

"Then why is she calling me now?"

"We also find this strange, so we want to continue to observe and, if possible, avoid getting involved."

"How to say?"

"Here's the thing, through our wiretapping, we discovered that Yang Guilan was lying to Yang Xi. This is very good feedback. The ability to lie is something only a normal person possesses, or at least something that only someone in a very sober state of mind would think of... Yang Guilan deliberately lied to Yang Xi, saying she was going to sleep and that the doctor was coming. Not only did she come up with very good excuses, but they were also very reasonable. We think that her call to you, Mr. Lin, might be because she has some request, or it might be the key to resolving this matter..."

Lin Lang: "..."

So, I'm the one treating the illness?

Never mind, it doesn't matter anymore.

It doesn't matter who treats you, as long as you can get better.

At this moment, Yang Guilan's voice came again, "Langlang, I'm sorry to Xixi, and I've caused you trouble too."

"Auntie, please don't think like that. For me, this is no trouble at all, and for Xixi, it's even less of a problem. You gave birth to her and raised her. Without you, how could she have grown up?"

Yang Guilan: "Sigh, I have no other thoughts now, I just want to see you get married one day. If I can see my grandson before I die, I will have no regrets in this life."

Lin Lang really didn't know how to answer that question.

At this moment, Dr. Zhang sent a message: "President Lin, agree to her request. Through monitoring, we found that she seems very excited at this moment. This is a very good opportunity for her to overcome her inner obstacles. She has always had too many inner obstacles and always unconsciously suppresses herself. If we can overcome her inner obstacles, there may be a possibility of a complete cure."

Lin Lang: "..."

He let out a sigh of relief and said, "Auntie, don't worry about it now. It will be more convenient after Xixi graduates from university."

"Will you want children then? I know you young people don't really want any..."

"Yes, I want it."

"Langlang, you promised me this, you can't lie to me."

"Yes, I agreed."

"Then let Xixi come to you after she graduates."

"it is good."

Upon hearing this, Lin Lang already sensed that something was wrong.

He felt that someone was setting a trap for him.

"Dr. Zhang, how is it over there?"

Lin Lang sent a message.

"President Lin, we already know the direction of the subsequent treatment. Yang Guilan's performance is much stronger than we imagined. We will provide her with some psychological counseling to help her overcome all her inner obstacles. However, we may need your help sometimes. We have noticed that Yang Guilan is unusually active when she is with you."

"Okay, fine. Call me anytime if you have any questions."

Lin Lang had already hung up the phone with Yang Guilan and started eating.

Based on the phone call, Lin Lang couldn't tell that Yang Guilan was ill, but mental illnesses are sometimes not so obvious.

He received a message from Yang Xi after taking two bites.

"Brother, I'm sorry for troubling you so late at night."

"what happened?"

"My mom called you, right?"

"Yes, the treatment is over. Auntie is in a good mood. The doctor said it's a very good sign. The next treatment direction has been determined, and there is a possibility of a complete recovery."

"Really?"

"Would I lie to you? Don't worry. Go to class as usual, do whatever you need to do. You don't even need to come on Saturdays and Sundays. We'll talk about it after the doctor gives us feedback on the results."

"Brother, I'm so lucky to have met you. Thank you."

Why are you being so polite with me?

"It's not just politeness, it's heartfelt gratitude. Without you, I don't know how miserable I would be. You gave me a second chance at life and gave my mother another chance. I can never thank you enough."

"I didn't give you any money. That money was just a loan, and you'll have to pay it back in the future."

"Yes, I also want to thank you, brother, for giving me a chance to pay back the money. It was you who not only saved my life but also allowed me to live with dignity."

"So you're starting to talk about in-depth topics again, aren't you?"

"Hehehe... Bro, I'll secretly take a picture and show it to you."

"photo"

Lin Lang glanced at it and replied, "Is this how you repay me?"

"And there's more, and there's more..."
