章節 31: Many Means to Make Money
編輯: Atlas Studios
Wen Qiao went behind Wen Chi with one arm akimbo. "You're fifteen now, you ought to have some self-awareness. Have you finished your homework? You only know how to play games."
With half a banana hanging from his mouth, Wen Chi said, "I've finished it."
Wen Qiao picked up his math assignment and swept a casual gaze over it and flew into a rage almost instantly. It was clear that Wen Chi didn't put any effort into it—he had randomly filled in the multiple-choice questions with ABCD, and eight out of ten of them were wrong.
"Redo it. Do it seriously."
With reluctance written all over his face, Wen Chi said, "Sis, I'm just not cut out for studying. Forcing me to study is a complete waste of time. I've talked with Xia Bo and the rest. Once the nine years of mandatory education ends, I'm off to earn money."
"What will you rely on to make money?"
Straightening up, Wen Chi stopped being his dilly-dallying self. "Enter a club and become a professional gamer. You've heard of Ding Hai, haven't you? His uncle runs a club. Their team has made it into the world top three before, it's just that they've declined a little now. We're planning to enter the team and help his uncle's club reclaim its past glory."
As the youth spoke of his dream, his eyes sparkled with a passionate glow.
This made Wen Qiao begin to review her assessment of Wen Chi. In her previous lifetime, because he had vehemently refused to enter senior high, he broke his mother's heart and things at home became really tense. In the end, he even left home and cut off all contact with them.
Even then, he would still secretly pay attention to his family's situation and would stand out to fight for Wen Mo when he saw his brother get bullied.
From the looks of it now, if he genuinely had no interest in studying, so perhaps professional gaming was a viable option.
As the saying went, 'every road leads to Rome'.
"Are you playing PUBG?"
"Mm."
"What's your standard like?"
"If nothing goes wrong, I'm a master. I can easily get 10 kills and win the game."
Hearing the conversation, Su Yun frowned. "You ought to prioritize your studies. Don't keep thinking about playing games all day long, child."
After Wen Mo finished drinking the pear soup, Su Yun brought the bowl into the kitchen.
Wen Qiao said in a hushed voice, "I support your idea in entering the club, but you have to guarantee that your studies won't be too greatly affected. You must enter university at least. Can you promise me that?"
"Deal! Eh, who was that man today? I saw you acting like a wimp in front of him."
Who was acting like a wimp? Wen Qiao raised a hand, threatening to give him a vicious beating. Wen Chi assumed a posture of shouting for his mother.
Ugh! Wen Qiao immediately relented, before whispering, "That's my boyfriend. But you're not to tell Mom."
Perhaps after finding a new means of survival she would be able to leave Fu Nanli. She decided not to alarm her mother for now.
Even Wen Mo looked shocked.
Wen Chi asked, "Who is he? What does he do? How old is he?"
"Are you investigating his entire household?"
"Xia Bo said his car is quite expensive. I don't know about that stuff. I'm just worried you'll be stupidly deceived by that man."
"Alright, alright. I know what to do. If you let slip of this in front of Mom…" Wen Qiao raised a hand again.
Though furious, Wen Chi knew he was no match for his sister. "You only know how to threaten me."
The school bully's pride was being trampled upon time and again, he couldn't take it lying down. But because he was no match for her, there was nothing he could do about it except to hold it in.
After Wen Qiao was reborn, she did have many means to make money. Firstly, she could compose songs. In her previous lifetime, she had lived till 24, and by then she had developed an understanding of which company valued talents and copyright, and could also provide her with good development.
After careful consideration, she decided to choose Ocean Lux Records. In her previous lifetime, the songs that she composed impromptu were misappropriated by the pub boss and sent to the record company by him. Even when the songs subsequently fell in popularity, that scumbag boss could earn a steady six-figure income every month in royalties. While he earned a lot of money from misappropriating her work, she didn't gain a single cent from it.
This lifetime, she naturally had to plan for herself in advance.
She first wrote a tune, then created a demo using Logic Pro and MIDI keyboard, before sending them to the Ocean Lux Records music director in one compilation. She knew that the music director of Ocean Lux Records would show great interest in this tune.
Even if she could rely on herself to earn money, she had to get back from Wen Jianmin what he owed to her.
No way would she allow that heartless cad who abandoned his wife and children to live in peace.
