An ordinary person?
The corner of Jason's mouth curved into a self-deprecating smile.
"Do you really think that you are not born in a rich and powerful family, but chose to be born in an ordinary family? You can do whatever you want and arrange your own fate?"
Jason shook his head.
"That's because you haven't experienced what it feels like to be penniless."
"When life and food become a problem, will you still consider what life you want to live?"
"You were born in a rich and powerful family, and when you were born, you have reached an end that ordinary people can't afford. You have no idea what going to school, eating, buying a car, and buying a house will put much pressure on an ordinary family."
"I don't know how much helplessness and sadness an ordinary person will have when they are faced with marriage."
Speaking of this, Jason suddenly let out a bitter laugh.
He raised his head to look at the confused- looking white silk and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't say much. Let's just get back to business."
Bai Shan was stunned. She had not expected Jason to suddenly mention these things to her today.
She also had some understanding of Jason's experience before he became the owner of the Shen family.
He grew up in the countryside, and his adoptive parents were honest farmers who lived in the fields with their backs against the soil.
The farthest place they had been to was the county town, and the best hotel they had ever lived in was a hotel that only cost 70 yuan per night in the county town.
In order to raise tuition for Jason, his adopted father even did not hesitate to borrow all his relatives and villagers.
If it weren't for the fact that Jason was discovered by David and the father and son had recognized each other later, they probably couldn't afford a train ticket from their hometown to the Nandu.
The university that had worked so hard to support Jason's bet could only be described as a fantasy in Jason's mind.
This was the life of an ordinary person. All his life was for the sake of life, but he couldn't overcome the words "hungry poverty". There was only one life, and there would be no time for him to shine.
Bai Ling looked at the whiskey on the table, hesitated for a moment, stretched out her hand and handed it to Jason, and said softly, "You must feel very painful. It may be better if you drink some wine."
Jason waved his hand. His body was not like the white silk who practiced martial arts. He relied on strong alcohol to narrow the meridians and open the meridians, which would achieve the effect of blood circulation and blood stasis.
Now he had not recovered from the old injury and had new injuries. With Jason's constitution, if he drank at this time, he would not have to get out of bed in the next few days. Even if he felt painful, he would hurt himself to death.
There were bloody Curtains in this place.
Seeing Jason waving his hand to refuse, Bai Shan didn't force him.
She put the bottle on the ground and sat opposite Jason with her long and beautiful legs crossed. Her face was gloomy and sad, and her eyes were full of sadness and melancholy that could not be dispelled.
"When is the engagement?" Jason raised his head and asked.
"It's New Year's Day," Bai Shan said. "However, the matter of the marriage will be officially announced next week."
"Next week?" Jason frowned and asked, "What's the price?"
"On Saturday."
"A Saturday?" Jason looked at her in surprise. "The birthday party of Zachary will be on the next Saturday. Your engagement won't be announced in the Rising Dragon Mansion on that day, right?"
The Rising Dragon Mansion was the Dragon Society's private club, which was also where Zachary's birthday party would be held next week.
"Yes." A wry smile appeared on Bai Shan's face. "During the birthday party next week, other than the four great families from Capital City gathering together, even the four ancient families will send special personnel to attend their birthday party. The ambitious heads from all over the country who are friendly with the Dragon Society have also gathered here. This is the best time to announce the engagement between the two families, as well as the venue."
"It's really interesting..." Jason suddenly burst into laughter. "I didn't expect the Long Gang to have such a strong background. A gang head's birthday party is actually related to the Gu family. No wonder they dare to unscrupulously make such a big noise in the Nandu. Even the Chans are afraid of being involved with the Shens. Now it seems that they are not afraid of the Long Gang at all. They are afraid of the force behind the Dragon Society..."
"So, do you still plan to find trouble with Zachary in front of the Four Greatest Ancient Family and the Gu Clan that day?" Bai Shan asked.
She still didn't believe that Jason could really kill Zachary under the protection of all forces.
At most, it was just some riots caused at the scene to save the Shen family's face in Nandu.
