I always felt that He Yubing was somewhat of a contrast.

Xia Jianshe was very happy listening to Zhou Cheng's words.

Previously, the village didn't produce many yellow peaches, so sales weren't a concern, and he had never asked Zhou Yuanbo for help.

But this year was not only a bumper harvest, but the village and several neighboring villages had also been planting yellow peaches over the past few years.

Now that their yellow peaches were almost ripe, the oversupply made sales a problem.

For this reason, the villagers sought help from Zhou Cheng's grandfather. After his grandfather called Zhou Yuanbo, he sent Xia Jianshe directly to Shanghai to find him.

Hearing Zhou Cheng agree so readily now, he also felt a sense of relief.

"Good, good. Thank you, Xiao Cheng..." Xia Jianshe thanked him hurriedly.

"Xiao Cheng, it happens to be your grandfather's ninetieth birthday in half a month. After I'm discharged today, I'll go straight back to our hometown to organize the birthday celebration. When the time comes, bring Shurong and Wanyu back with you," Zhou Yuanbo said at this moment.

Previously, he had some misunderstandings about his father, believing that his father had strictly limited him from being with Su Fang and even forced him to go to school in Shanghai, delaying his love with Su Fang.

Now, after Zhou Cheng had investigated the whole story, he finally discovered that his father had actually saved him back then.

If he had given up the chance to attend Tsinghua University and let Qian Mu come to Shanghai in his place...

...he would likely have been trapped in the mountains for his entire life.

"Got it," Zhou Cheng replied. Although he had never met this grandfather, since it was a ninetieth birthday, it was necessary to make a trip back!

"It's a pity Feiyu has already gone abroad," Zhou Yuanbo sighed softly.

"Old Chen also told me about your elder brother and Ye Juaner. You did well. Since the Ye Family took back the shares, they must get a divorce. My Zhou Family is not someone the Ye Family can fool at will!" Zhou Yuanbo praised Zhou Cheng regarding Zhou Feiyu's matter.

He had also come to realize that Zhou Cheng's abilities were far superior to his own! Moreover, his handling of matters was extremely correct and decisive!

This move in particular had allowed Zhou Feiyu to truly see through Ye Juaner.

"It was alright," Zhou Cheng replied casually... Outside the hospital, Xiao Tianling was currently squatting outside the car smoking a cigarette, waiting for Zhou Shurong.

Upon seeing Zhou Shurong walking over, he immediately threw away the cigarette butt and stood up!

"President Zhou," Xiao Tianling called out, then opened the car door for Zhou Shurong.

Zhou Shurong sat in the car, fuming with anger.

Xiao Tianling looked at Zhou Shurong's expression through the rearview mirror and immediately guessed that she hadn't gained any advantage this time either.

What exactly was going on with this Zhou Cheng?

In his previous life, this Zhou Cheng didn't have nearly this much of a role. Why was it that after his Rebirth, many situations in the Zhou Family no longer matched up?

Xiao Tianling was also very puzzled. The most important thing was the change in Zhou Cheng; it seemed all the variables were centered on him!

Was it because he hadn't known enough about this Second Young Master in his previous life?

Or was it the butterfly effect?

Xiao Tianling was extremely confused... At Zhou Cheng's end, after Zhou Yuanbo was discharged, the Group went together to pay their respects at the grave of Zhou Cheng's mother.

Zhou Cheng took a good look at her photograph. In the photo, she appeared very capable and experienced, especially with her very bright eyes.

She was smiling as she looked forward, appearing even more affectionate.

After paying their respects, Zhou Yuanbo specifically asked Zhou Cheng and the others to wait for him outside.

Subsequently, they waited for a full hour before seeing him come out.

Zhou Cheng took a special look at him; his eyes were red, and his cheeks looked as if they had been washed by rain.

Clearly, the old man had just spent an hour crying at his mother's grave.

Not knowing how to cherish someone while they were alive, continuing to misunderstand and complain after their death, and then feeling incomparable regret once the truth was known.

Perhaps this was just life.

Zhou Cheng sighed inwardly with emotion.

After all the busyness, by the time they returned home, the sky had already darkened.

For the first time, Zhou Cheng stayed at home and had dinner with Zhou Yuanbo and the others!

Afterward, having finished washing up, he went straight to rest.

The next day, Sunday, Zhou Cheng woke up a bit late.

By the time he got up, Uncle Chen told him that Zhou Yuanbo had already returned to their hometown with Xia Jianshe!

And Zhou Wanyu had also left for school early!

During a break in eating breakfast, Zhou Cheng took out his phone to check; He Yubing's messages and calls were like bombers, having bombarded his phone several times.

Zhou Cheng looked through them; among the messages, He Yubing had also recalled several, and Zhou Cheng didn't see what they were.

"Eating breakfast, will be at the Group soon," Zhou Cheng replied casually.

"...The missing Second Young Master finally replied [scattering flowers]," He Yubing's message came back immediately.

There was also a flower-scattering emoji.

This left Zhou Cheng between laughter and tears; he always felt that He Yubing had a bit of a contrast.

After finishing breakfast, he went out and got in his car.

In about half an hour, he arrived at the Group!

He Yubing had been waiting at the Group for a long time. Once Zhou Cheng arrived, she stepped forward and neatly straightened his suit.

Then, taking Zhou Cheng's hand, she trotted toward the exit.

"Why the rush!"

"Of course it's urgent. There are only two days left until the College Entrance Examination; this concerns their entire lives."

"We can't delay their final time for checking and filling the gaps in their knowledge."

He Yubing replied to Zhou Cheng's words; she had come up the same way, so she cared even more about those children.

She knew that all the children had poor family backgrounds, and some were even orphans!

Although Chenyang Group sponsored them, helped their families, brought them to Shanghai, and gave them the best education...

...but Chenyang Group did not guarantee their futures!

If they failed the College Entrance Examination and failed to demonstrate their abilities afterward, then Chenyang Group's assistance would also terminate after they finished Tsinghua University.

Hearing this, Zhou Cheng did not refute He Yubing!

After sitting in the Group's Rolls-Royce, Zhou Cheng leaned back casually in the rear seat and looked toward He Yubing.

Seeing He Yubing preoccupied with flipping through materials, his gaze shifted downward to look at her attire.

He Yubing seemed to sense something and immediately turned to look at Zhou Cheng.

"Second Young Master, what are you looking at?"

"Looking at the scenery outside," Zhou Cheng replied nonchalantly, withdrawing his gaze.

He Yubing looked down, then shot Zhou Cheng a glare.

"Second Young Master, among the students we are sponsoring this year, a total of 1,300 are taking the College Entrance Examination. Thirty of them are being specially cultivated, and we've brought them directly to Shanghai for school!"

"They are the ones we are going to see this time! If all goes well, after they graduate from Tsinghua University, we will also support them in going abroad for further studies, and afterward, they will enter Chenyang Group or its subsidiaries!" He Yubing said quickly.

"The most noteworthy among them is a girl named Qiu Yuwei!"

"She is the smartest of them all! She has already secured a recommended admission spot at the Tsinghua University through the Olympiad! Continuing to take the College Entrance Examination is just to try for the title of Shanghai's Top Scorer!"

"Oh," Zhou Cheng replied.

He didn't pay much attention to it!

This kind of nationwide selection to sponsor impoverished students and pick excellent ones for comprehensive cultivation was indeed good.

But there was a key problem: it was hard to ensure loyalty!

The human heart is the hardest thing to be certain of.

After all, you sponsor them, spending money and effort, but in their eyes, they might think it's only as it should be!

They might even complain if you reduce the sponsorship amount!

So Zhou Cheng wasn't very invested in this; he felt the investment and return were not proportional!
