Chapter 250 Theme Competition: Breaking Free (2)
"Ugh—" Wu Yihai woke up from another nightmare, then sighed deeply, "Sigh—"
He dreamed of the girl named Xiangyang again, but his stepsister had disappeared many years ago.
Since graduating from university, Wu Yihai has plunged into the business world with his keen insight and decisiveness.
Start from the bottom of your own company and then continuously expand your business scope;
It gradually expanded from the local market to surrounding cities, and even gained recognition nationwide.
Wu Bo has long since retired.
Under Wu Yihai's leadership, the company has grown rapidly, and its business scope covers multiple sectors such as emerging technologies and internet services.
Each new product or service launched precisely meets market demand, and the company's profits grow year by year like a snowball.
In his personal life, Wu Yihai has also had a smooth and successful life.
He met his soulmate while he was in school.
The other party was gentle, kind, intelligent, and generous, and always silently supported his career, giving him encouragement and comfort.
After the two walked down the aisle, their feelings for each other deepened, and they soon welcomed the fruit of their love.
Wu Yihai has become a shining star in the business world, and is frequently invited to attend various high-end business forums and industry summits.
His speech attracted much attention, and his views and ideas were regarded as guiding principles by many of his peers.
In the eyes of others, he is undoubtedly a winner in life.
With a successful career and a happy family, he seemed to have everything that others envied.
But only he knew that the nightmare had haunted him for more than 20 years since his stepsister disappeared, and it had never gone away.
Sometimes he dreamed that Xiangyang was not dead, but that his personality had changed drastically for some reason and that he had amazing fighting power;
Sometimes he would dream that he had joined the army, broken ties with his family, and risked his life every day to complete missions.
More often than not, his dreams would feature a small earthen mound with a dozen or so people surrounding his companions on the opposite side.
They had been without water and food for three days, and their guns and ammunition were long gone; they were on the verge of being captured.
Just as he was preparing to sacrifice himself, Xiangyang descended from the sky like a superhero, saving him and his teammates...
Every time he woke up from a nightmare, what left the deepest impression on him was always the indifferent look in Xiangyang's eyes when he looked at him.
In his dream, he confessed to his father everything he had done to Xiangyang and left home;
In reality, he did not follow Wu Bo's wishes; instead, he studied business and inherited the family business.
In the dream, he didn't do anything to his stepmother Xiang Lanlan, and his father still got divorced. He didn't know what happened after that.
In reality, Xiang Lanlan tried to harm him many times, but due to her limited intelligence, she failed each time and was eventually sent to a mental hospital by him.
Wu Yihai washed his face and took out the newspapers he had kept over the years from his study.
A girl named Zhang Qian was found burned to death in a factory. She had been subjected to cruel torture before her death. The girl Xiang Yang, who lived with her, also disappeared.
The news caused a huge sensation back then, and it remains an unsolved case.
The other news item was from a few months later, reporting that Chen Da got into a fight on the street and was killed by the other person.
Because the murderer was powerful and influential, he did not pay the price he deserved.
The dead man was another thug known for his violence, so no one paid any attention; some even applauded.
The Chen family embarked on a path of fighting for their rights, and their financial situation deteriorated further.
Chen Shan's grades were already poor, and later, with no one to care for her, she could only do odd jobs everywhere. Eventually, she married someone randomly.
Years later, she was killed by her husband due to domestic violence, and he was sentenced to seven years in prison.
The Chen family has lost two children in succession and is now somewhat insane.
Wu Yihai put the news back and guessed that he might be having nightmares because he was traumatized by Xiangyang's death.
Some things may never have an answer.
Wu Yihai put the newspaper back, lay back down on the bed, and closed his eyes.
There was a photo frame under the newspaper, containing a picture of a girl's profile, which looked like it was taken secretly.
"Dear viewers, just yesterday, the renowned entrepreneur Mr. Wu Yihai passed away at home..."
......
"Ah!!!" The boy opened his eyes and started banging on the bed in the room, going crazy.
There were three people sitting at the table, seemingly waiting for him to eat.
"What's wrong with Xiao Hai lately?" Wu Bo frowned as he looked into the boy's room.
He couldn't understand why his son had suddenly become a different person, with a bad temper, a gloomy personality, and a desire to destroy the world all day long.
Xiang Lanlan chuckled inwardly. On the surface, however, she kept reassuring her husband, "It's probably because of the pressure of studying."
Wu Yihai sat on the edge of the bed, panting heavily.
This is his twenty-fifth time returning to his childhood.
He couldn't understand why he, who was in good health, would suddenly die at home.
However, fate smiled upon him, and he was given another chance.
But when he was reincarnated a second and third time, he realized that this was not good luck at all, but a curse.
No matter how hard he tries or what kind of work he does, he will die around the same time.
Wu Yihai became a person trapped in time.
He could only watch helplessly as the people and things around him changed and then returned to the starting point.
Yes, it's not just him; Xiang Yang, Xiang Lanlan, Wu Bo, Chen Da, Chen Qian, or even anyone else could suddenly change.
In one cycle of reincarnation, Xiangyang will become a business tycoon, and in another, she will become the beloved wife of a powerful figure.
Sometimes she would come to take revenge on him, and sometimes she would come to seduce him.
Even Xiangyang's grandmother, who died young, underwent a drastic change in temperament.
In one reincarnation, he not only did not die, but also became a reclusive master, only to emerge from seclusion again because of his granddaughter.
As a result, the Wu family watched as successful people from all walks of life came to visit the old man one after another, their attitudes so humble that they seemed like servants.
Gangster bosses, political figures, top tycoons, renowned doctors... they were all her honored guests.
In the end, Xiang Lanlan and Wu Yihai, the two who had bullied Xiang Yang, were naturally crushed to death like ants.
Isn't Xiang Lanlan the old man's biological daughter? Is there really a mother who would let her daughter suffer such a tragic fate for the sake of her granddaughter?
Wu Yihai could understand if Xiangyang's grandmother beat Xiang Lanlan up, but wouldn't it be too much to torture her to death?
As he was being tortured to the point of delirium, he looked at Xiang Lanlan, who was also being tortured beside him, and felt that the world was going mad.
Sometimes he wondered if he had gone mad long ago, and if all these memories were fake, just figments of his imagination.
"What on earth is going on?!" Wu Yihai roared like a landslide.
Wu Bo shook his head at the dinner table and said to Xiang Lanlan, "Never mind him for now, let's eat."
