All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert

Chapter 175: The Wealthy and Vicious Female Supporting Character (End) 9

By the time Lin Ruan returned from Finland, the funerals for both the Lin family and the second branch of the Shen family had already concluded. The airport lobby was bustling with activity, yet Lin Ruan felt as if she were in another world, the bustle of the surroundings completely alien to her.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been staying in the wilderness for too long.

"Hello Aunt Lin, did you have fun?" The crisp voice broke Lin Ruan's thoughts. She looked up and saw that besides Shen's father and mother, Shen Huaijun was also there to pick her up at the airport.

Now, doted upon by the Shen family, Shen Huaijun had shed the repression she once endured under Lin Ruan's care, and had become somewhat more lively and cheerful, a characteristic of a teenager. She wore a light blue dress, her ponytail swaying gently with her movements. Her eyes sparkled, and a pure smile graced her face.

Lin Ruan looked at the energetic girl in front of her and secretly sighed in her heart that she was really not suitable for raising children.

"Happily, Huaijun, this is a gift I brought you." Lin Ruan smiled as she pulled out a beautifully wrapped box from her suitcase and handed it to Shen Huaijun. She had carefully selected this gift from a small specialty shop in Finland, and she knew it was perfect for Shen Huaijun the moment she saw it.

Shen Huaijun's eyebrows curved, his eyes sparkling with excitement. He accepted the gift very happily and said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, Aunt Lin."

She couldn't wait to unwrap the package. Inside was a handmade wooden music box. After opening it, a melodious tune slowly flowed out, and the delicate little figures danced to the music. Shen Huaijun looked at the music box in surprise and couldn't let it go.

Father Shen looked at Lin Ruan with a smile, a hint of emotion in his eyes, and his tone was full of concern: "Ruan Ruan, it's good to go out and relax this time. So much has happened. I hope you can get over it as soon as possible."

Father Shen's face bore traces of time, his eyes revealing kindness and gentleness. He had always admired Lin Ruan. Although they had experienced so many twists and turns, in his heart, Lin Ruan had long been a member of the Shen family.

Lin Ruan nodded slightly and said gratefully, "Dad, I'm sorry to have worried you. I'm fine. On the day I married Yi Jin, I told myself that you are my only family."

On the way home, Shen Huaijun chirped away like a cheerful little bird, sharing recent details of her life. She spoke of a fascinating new course at school, how the teacher's lectures were lively and engaging, and how the students were all rapt. She also mentioned some new friends she'd made, how they were participating in club activities together and how they'd joked and played together during recess. She excitedly recounted a picnic she'd gone on with her grandparents. The scenery was beautiful, the grass covered in colorful flowers, and they'd even flown kites together, a truly joyful weekend. The atmosphere in the car was relaxed and harmonious, and Shen Huaijun's laughter echoed through the car like a silver bell.

Lin Ruan smiled with her eyes curved, but in her heart she was counting down to Shen Yijin's departure.

A month later, Shen Yijin's condition suddenly took a turn for the worse. He had been in a vegetative state, relying on various medical devices to keep him alive. Although his condition had not improved, it was relatively stable.

However, one night, the hospital suddenly received an emergency notice that Shen Yijin's vital signs dropped sharply. The doctors tried their best to rescue him. Busy figures shuttled around the ward, and the sounds of various instruments intertwined, making people feel extremely distressed.

But in the end, Shen Yijin was unable to defeat the disease and closed his eyes forever.

The entire Shen family was instantly immersed in grief, as if shrouded by a thick layer of dark clouds.

The heartbreaking grief of seeing their son die was nearly unbearable for Shen's parents. Shen's mother wept day and night, her body becoming extremely weak. Shen's father, despite his grief, supported the family, but his eyes were also filled with endless sorrow.

It is sad no matter how hard it is to see the young die.

...Bar?

Lin Ruan thought.

She remembered that at some point in a certain world, she had dreamed of what her family members looked like when she died, but after traveling through so many worlds, she had long forgotten whether the people in her dreams were crying or laughing.

Shen Huaijun's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and he seemed to have lost his soul.

She didn't understand why she kept losing throughout her life.

Losing her childhood memories, her mother, her father.

After dealing with Shen Yijin's funeral, before they had time to get over their grief, they had to force the living to face reality - to distribute the inheritance under Shen Yijin's name.

Father Shen sat solemnly in the main seat of the study. He cleared his throat and slowly said, "Yi Jin is gone. I asked my lawyer to make a list of his inheritance. It's all here."

Father Shen glanced around, his gaze lingering on each face for a moment before finally settling on Lin Ruan. His eyes held a complex mix of longing for his son and gratitude and concern for Lin Ruan. He spoke slowly, "Ruan Ruan, Yi Jin is gone, and these past few years haven't been easy for you. He's been in a vegetative state, and it's all thanks to your meticulous care. Even if you haven't done anything for him, you've certainly worked hard. We've decided to give you one-third of his estate, which will translate into shares worth 2% of the Shen Group. This is also a small compensation from the Shen family for our unfulfilled responsibilities to Yi Jin. I hope you'll accept it."

Lin Ruan pretended to be slightly stunned, as if she had never expected that Shen's father would make such a decision.

After a long silence, he said, "Dad, give me the money. Yijin is gone, and he's free now, so I want to travel around the world on his behalf."

"As for my shares in that investment company, if the group wants to acquire it, I'll sell them to you. This is the company's asset evaluation. You can discuss it with the other shareholders and let me know the results as soon as possible."

Father Shen looked at Lin Ruan with some surprise, then nodded, "Okay, go out and relax. I will discuss the investment company's matters with the shareholders as soon as possible." Shen Huaijun's eyes were red, and she pulled Lin Ruan's hand, "Auntie Lin, please don't go." Lin Ruan touched her head, "Huaijun, be good, Auntie is just going out for a walk, and she will come back to see you."

A few days later, Shen's father informed Lin Ruan that the group was willing to acquire her shares in the investment company. Lin Ruan successfully secured the funds and began preparing for her world trip. On the day of her departure, the entire Shen family came to see her off. Shen Huaijun hugged Lin Ruan and cried uncontrollably, and Shen's father and mother were also filled with reluctance to let her go.

Lin Ruan comforted them with a smile, then turned around and embarked on a new journey.

When the plane took off, Lin Ruan looked out the window, without much emotion in his heart.

"Ruanruan, when do you plan to leave this world?" asked the system.

Lin Ruan said leisurely, "No rush, no rush. How are the assets of various countries being handled?"

"According to your request, we have sold everything except our pharmaceutical company in Country M."

"Well, tell the lab to get those drugs I selected into mass production as quickly as possible."

"okk."

"Also, Seventeen, once the requirements are met, you can have the pharmaceutical company scale up production. Produce as much as possible and put it all into my space."

"Okay, Oruanruan."

"Seventeen, you're so coquettish, I feel a little sick."

"You're being long-winded."

Although she said she was traveling around the world, Lin Ruan actually stayed in several Nordic countries. There was no other way. That kind of depressing and lazy life was like living in a dark fairy tale, which unexpectedly touched Lin Ruan's comfort zone.

The system changed identities one after another, and used Lin Ruan's money to be active in various black markets or auction houses.

Money is of no use to Lin Ruan.

She was a little confused. She kept traveling through one world after another, but it seemed that nothing could reach the threshold that really made her feel happy.

"Seventeen, you should take on a mission in the next world. It's boring without a goal."

"Sure, will the points still be divided equally?"

"Equally split, but you have to pick a more relaxed world for me, one that everyone loves. I don't want to make money every time I go to a new world. I feel like I'm becoming a money-grubber."

System: "Most of this is earned by me, okay?"

Lin Ruan: "Okay, Qian Chuanzi."

system:.....

The system fell silent, and Lin Ruan instead said in a sly voice, "Alright, alright, let's just rest in this deep forest for a few years and live a normal life."

The system sneered, "Why, aren't you going to find someone to keep you company? Isn't it time for you to complain about being lonely and cold every day?"

Lin Ruan denied it repeatedly: "I didn't, it's not me, I'm a pure little girl~"

"Isn't that a little girl who's tens of thousands of years old?"

"Dog Seventeen, you're too long-winded."

. . . . .

Finally, Lin Ruan had had enough and decided to die in this forest. She ran in the forest in a gorgeous dress, like Snow White under the hunter's gun.

But there were no seven dwarfs in the forest. There was only the rustling of the wind and the cry of deer, as if they were bidding her farewell.
