Future News: My Phone Mutated

The money that Lin Bai promised to help her out was one billion.

It wasn't ten nor one hundred thousand yuan.

It was a whole one billion!

He had helped her get rid of her troubles with so much money, yet he only asked her to fire an assistant and then take responsibility and compensate for a traffic accident.

That was all.

Ling Xuewei really couldn't believe it.

He spent one billion yuan and yet, he only asked her to do such a trivial thing? How was it possible!

"That..."

"I don't like the feeling of having something weighing down on my heart."

Ling Xuewei lowered her eyes and took a deep breath. Finally, she mustered up the courage to say the words that she wanted to say the most.

"So, Mr. Lin, why don't you explain all the conditions in one go?"

She was already mentally prepared for the worst.

But she still hoped to know clearly what price she would have to pay.

Lin Bai replied calmly, "I've already said it. If you think it's not enough, then add another condition. Work hard on the project of Yunding Villa and help me sell it for as much money as possible."

Ling Xuewei suddenly raised her head, her face full of disbelief.

She didn't speak for a long time, not knowing what else she could say but she just couldn't believe that this was all that Lin Bai had asked her to do.

Lin Bai actually didn't like the feeling of being suspected or to be more precise, no one would like to be suspected, especially when he was sincere and purely wanted to do a good deed to help others. Yet, he was instead doubted by the other party if he had other intentions.

No one would like this feeling.

However, Lin Bai did not get angry or feel any negative emotions.

This was because he knew all of Ling Xuewei's past experiences and could understand why she would react like this.

Even without reading her mind, Lin Bai knew what she was thinking.

Lin Bai slowly turned back and stood in front of Ling Xuewei. He calmly and honestly said to her, "Ling Xuewei, I know what you're thinking right now but you're wrong. I'm helping you purely out of sympathy and admiration for you. There's no other purpose. So your guess and what you're worried about will never happen. Ever."

Ling Xuewei was so shocked that she could not speak.

She met Lin Bai's gaze and looked back into his eyes.

A pair of eyes that were clean, pure, and did not contain any evil thoughts.

At this moment, she felt as if something had been broken in the bottom of her heart.

She had seen countless evil wolf-like eyes. They were greedy, evil, and filthy.

It was as if they wished they could directly use their gazes to strip her naked and tear her apart.

She had seen too many.

In her purest and most beautiful teenage years, she had to face countless gazes like that almost every day.

There had never been a man who looked at her so calmly and honestly.

There was no scheming, no greed, no coveting...

There was nothing that she hated at all.

It was so pure and genuine that it was so unreal.

In particular, after giving her such a huge favor, he was still filled with respect for her. Such an experience had never happened before.

It was too surreal.

"I might be dreaming."

Ling Xuewei smiled as she muttered to herself. Her expression was dazed and sorrowful.

Complicated and intense emotions surged in her heart, almost swallowing her whole.

Lin Bai could see that her emotions were fluctuating greatly.

However, he had never experienced Ling Xuewei's past personally.

Therefore, he could not understand what she was feeling right now.

Lin Bai calmly said everything he wanted to say to her.

"I know that you have been forced to see many dark sides of humanity, but what I want to tell you is that humanity does not only have dark sides. Not everyone gives others help with a hidden agenda or malicious intentions. Not all men are so dirty and despicable. No matter how much pain you have experienced, I hope that you will not be disappointed in humanity."

"You must believe that there is still a bright side to humanity. There are still good people in this world. If there is a purpose behind my help to you, then this is it."

Lin Bai left after saying that.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't even touch a single finger of Ling Xuewei.

Ling Xuewei stared blankly in the direction where Lin Bai left. After an unknown amount of time, she finally burst into tears.

If it was in the past, Ling Xuewei would never have believed it but at this moment, she truly believed it.

On the way back, Lin Bai couldn't help but recall the expression on Ling Xuewei's face over and over again.

That kind of expression when a certain idea deep in his heart was completely shattered.

It was still lingering in Lin Bai's mind.

Lin Bai had helped many people in the past, but it was mostly because others had helped him before that he would return the favor.

For example, Luo Yang and Sun Xiaogang.

He had snatched the opportunity that belonged to others, so he made up for it by other means.

For example, Huo Yanhui.

Or, because of the pop-up window of the Future News App, he would intervene to prevent certain disasters.

For example, he would prevent Zhao Yiming from taking revenge on society, and he would prevent Doctor Zhao's daughter from being hurt by bad people.

It could be considered as a kind of responsibility that one had to shoulder after owning the Future News App.

However, other than these circumstances, helping others purely for the sake of helping others, regardless of the return or cost, seemed to only happen once today.

Lin Bai himself could not tell why. In any case, he just wanted to help whenever he wanted.

If he did not know about Ling Xuewei's past experiences, it would have been fine but since he knew, he could not just stand by and watch.

It could be because of his sympathy, or it could be because of some kind of tie after using the enhanced version of the Human Discernation Technique.

Lin Bai was not too sure.

In any case, he didn't plan to use the enhanced version of the Human Discernation Technique casually anymore. The original version was enough. There was no need to look at other people's entire lives.

After looking at it, it was inevitable that more emotions would arise.

Things like today could happen once or twice but if it kept happening, it would only become a burden.

It was unnecessary.

After a few days, Ling Xuewei invited Lin Bai to the company to sign an official cooperation agreement.

Lin Bai went to sign it, and the two of them officially reached a cooperation agreement.

Ling Xuewei took out another document and handed it to Lin Bai.

"Mr. Lin, this is the sales draft for the Yunding Mountain Villa Project. There are three sets of different projects in total. Please take a look."

Lin Bai roughly skimmed through them. The three sets of projects were all very good, and each of them had its own characteristics.

"All of them are very good. I can see that your company is very diligent."

Lin Bai affirmed the results of the work of Ling Xuewei and her team. Then, he smiled and said, "I believe in President Ling's vision and judgment. You can choose which project to use. I won't interfere."

Lin Bai's life motto was to leave professional matters to professionals. Since he was an amateur, it was better not to interfere recklessly.
