Prodigal System

Prodigal System
Chapter 2


"Mr and Madam?" Upon hearing this, Hong Dali's heart surged. He thought, They must be the biological parents of this body? Then, what kind of emotions do I have to bear against them?


One could not blame Hong Dali for hesitating.


He had been an orphan in his previous world. At a young age, his parents died in an accident. From a young age, he did not have the love and care of his relatives. Now that he had arrived in this world, and with a new body to boot, he had gained a pair of biological parents. It makes him feel very complex.


Is he happy? Yeah, he's feeling really happy. After all, asking the old man to call him himself was something he could only dream of in the past. However, it was not only the happiness he was feeling at the moment; there was also a feeling of uneasiness. After all, he was unfamiliar with his "new" parents". He did not know their name or their attitude towards the original owner of this body. More importantly, she couldn't call the person she met for the first time "father" and "mother."


This conflicting feeling between hope and anxiety caused him to feel somewhat troubled. On the other hand, he is still on a mission from the Big Lost System — to spend 100,000 yuan within four hours — and the only source of money he gets is from his "new" parents" …


There seems to be no way to meet them.


Hong Dali was distracted in his mind for a while. Then, he tidied up a bit of his care and followed the waiter out.


Along the way, although Hong Dali remained silent and quietly followed the waiter, his eyes were completely busy examining his surroundings. Three-story villa with a large atrium in the middle. There was a transparent stained glass above, and the stars in the sky could be observed through it. The entire first floor is a super luxurious living room. The condition of the third level is still unknown, and my room is located in the eastern part of the second level. The total area of this villa building seems to be about.3,000 square meters. Overall, it looks like the family of the original owner of this body is quite good. They would probably be considered a plutocrat rich family.


This was really good news, as it meant that Hong Dali had a basic source of wealth to scatter so that his attribute points could be raised.


Hence, his mood became bright, as he did not have to worry about earning money for now. Very quickly, he saw two men and three women in the living room. One of the couples sat facing east, with the man wearing modest house clothes. But even that could not hide the air of majesty on his face, especially his dense brows, which emphasized his sense of dignity. The woman by his side was wearing a light purple nightgown as she casually leaned against him. There was a faint smile on his face, and his lips gently pressed together, exuding a sense of grace and elegance.


Maybe they are my parents in this world? Hong Dali thought in his mind.


As for the others in the living room, they were clearly a family of three. The man looked to be in his mid-forties. He wore a greenish-gray vest and had a light beard above his lips. In his hand, he held a bronze smoking pipe, and his short, shiny black hair was neatly combed to the back of his head. His wife was wearing a black evening dress, and her beautiful long black hair was combed high on her head. His feet were placed close together by sloping to the side. She looks so beautiful and.


The last person was a teenage girl around 17 or 18. The skin is as beautiful as snow and looks very soft and supple. She was wearing a white one-piece dress that revealed her jade white calf. The girl's hair reached her shoulders and contrasted with her white dress, which made her hair look even more beautiful. He could not help but stare intently at her. For a moment, Hong Dali's eyes were very different. He felt like he was in a dream, and his heart was racing. At the same time, the girl turned her head and saw him approaching. However, he reacted with a frown and turned his face away slightly.


What's this family of three doing here till late at night? Could something happen? Hong Dali was unsure of their motives of being here, so he did not dare to behave unusually, just in case he raised anyone's suspicions. He nodded at the three visitors and looked towards his parents. Walking closer, he thought, It was already 8pm, but these visitors chose a late time to visit. They must be here because they need help. I was even specially summoned here, and there was a girl who was my age. Judging from the ambiguous appearance of the two families and how my parents kept looking at the girl .. Pondering up to this point, Hong Dali took a deep breath. Could it be .. that they are here to propose engagement? Looking for help with something?


After arriving at this conclusion, Hong Dali subconsciously glanced at the girl a few more times. Sensing her gaze, the girl seemed a little unhappy about it. He sulked and looked down to play with his fingers.


This girl doesn't seem to have a good opinion of me — or rather, I'm the real one. It seemed like these two people already knew each other, but their relationship was not that good. Ah, I better be careful, thought Hong Dali.


When he saw Hong Dali coming down the stairs and walking towards them, Hong Dali's father smiled and introduced them naturally without any sign of consideration. "Haha, Dali is here. Come and greet Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang."


He spoke in a very gentle tone, immediately causing Hong Dali to warm slightly to him. It is clear that this father loved him. Relatively, he would definitely treat Hong Dali well in the future as well. Although she still had memories of her past life in another world, being able to have someone who loved and cared for her now still made her feel extremely blessed.


"Hello, Uncle. Hello, Auntie." Hong Dali was not sure what kind of character this body owner was before. The memory fragments scattered in his mind contained only very minimal information, like the previous owner of these ways of scattering the body.


"Cough, cough, cough!" Hearing what Hong Dali had just said before even his own mother said something, Uncle Tang, who was at the side, coughed loudly. After her cough subsided, and with an expression that seemed to indicate that she was confused whether to laugh or cry, she smiled and asked, "Ah, Dali, well, well, Xinxin and you have known each other since you were young. "So you can all be considered childhood friends. But I wonder, what feelings do you have for my Xinxin?"


Needless to say, these three visitors were Tang Ruisi and her family.


Hong Dali was still unsure how close he was to the Tang family. Therefore, keeping a little distance from them now was his best choice. In the end, he was unable to let anyone realize that he was a stranger who had taken over this body, a consequence that he could not even imagine. Therefore, he only slightly nodded and said, "Not bad, he's quite handsome."


Although Hong Dali was a famous prodigy, Tang Muxin couldn't help but blush as she praised him.


However, Hong Dali's praise ended there when he again said to his mother, "Give me some money, I want to go out and splurge!"


Her mother shook her head helplessly, smiled, and then gently helped Hong Dali straighten her still messy hair after sleeping. He gently said to her, "Dumb boy, your Uncle Tang is here to propose between you and Muxin. You and Muxin had been engaged to each other before the two of you were even born, so this is not something you can object to. No need to rush to splurge. Your father and I still have talent in making money, so our wealth will eventually be yours. "


Hearing this, Hong Dali nodded and sat down obediently while quietly gathering and consolidating the information. Uncle Tang's family and I seem to have had a close relationship in the past. At least, it happened to my grandfather's generation. It is very likely that my grandfather and Uncle Tang's father were war comrades. The girl's full name was Tang Muxin, and her pet name was Xinxin. We were engaged to each other before birth, so that means she's my fiancee. Mother said that their wealth would definitely be passed on to me in the future, so that meant I was the only child of this family. No wonder I was so adored by them. Considering further, he thought, But the previous owner of this body only knew how to squander his money. He was definitely not a good candidate to consider as a son-in-law. This Tang Muxin was extremely beautiful, yet she willingly followed her father here to get engaged. This shows that their families must be having difficulties. They may need to seek help from my family. In this case, they have a problem with their business's cash flow or get into a showdown with someone stronger than them. The first situation is more likely.


With this little bit of information, Hong Dali began to observe Tang Muxin secretly.


By the way, this Tang Muxin was truly beautiful. Before, he could not see it clearly, as there was sufficient distance between them, but now, in close proximity, he could better see how beautiful he was.


He comes from a prestigious family. Being young and yet to set foot into the outside world, he naturally exuded a sense of purity and innocence. His large black eyes were filled with life, and his eyelashes were also extremely long. However, due to their current situation, she had no choice but to get engaged to Hong Dali. In his heart, he had not fully resigned himself to his fate. This difficulty made him appear extremely gentle, and it caused pity on those who saw him. Seeing him in such a state, Hong Dali even had the urge to hug him tightly and comfort him.


Of course, he only had the desire to do so. It was something he would never do — he could not possibly forget the fact that his health attributes were only 39 points. This means that he can easily die from anxiety or excessive excitement.


Everything was very clear now: the Tang family was indeed here to propose an engagement. All it takes now is a word from him. Having such a beautiful fiance was certainly not a bad thing, so Hong Dali's reply was very easy. "I don't mind …"


Hearing him say that, Tang Muxin's body felt trembling slightly.


Seeing how Hong Dali did not mind, his mother immediately said, "Dali, why don't you show Xinxin around the house. You two should get to know each other a little better. Without us around, the two of you will feel more comfortable. "


"Oh .. alright then ..." Hong Dali looked at Tang Muxin. Without needing her to say anything, this girl naturally knew what she had to do. The two went to the study room on the first floor of the villa. Immediately after entering the room, Tang Muxin said, "I warned you first, even though I am your fiancee, you are not allowed to touch me. You piece of trash, you're missing, don't come near me. Stay away from me. ! "


It seemed like the original owner of this body was completely unappreciated. Even a young girl like Tang Muxin dared to rule over him.


It is a good thing that this body is now occupied by others. Hong Dali shrugged indifferently at him. "That's fine with me. You can do it your own way. Actually, what I want to ask is, do you know how to waste? If you don't know how to do that, you're not qualified to be my fiancee. Even if you want to marry me, I might not necessarily want to marry you. "Young man, I already know what's going on in your mind just from your words and actions. Isn't your motive just to get money from my family so that your family can cope with the crisis you're facing? Once your family business gets back on track, your family will have the authority to renege on engagement. I'm not as stupid as giving you a chance to "go back stronger than before," so I might as well intimidate you first and show you who the boss is now.


What if you are beautiful and talented? All I need is a woman who can splurge with me. Only then can I earn more attribute points and complete the missions that the Great System Outstanding gave me. If I marry a frugal wife, then how can I splurge as I wish !?
