Shen Zhiyi: “!”
She was stunned.
A Golden Finger!
She focused her consciousness and entered it. Hmm? It looked a bit familiar.
Wait, wasn’t this the birthday gift her parents had given her before she transmigrated?
Before transmigrating, she had been the eldest daughter of a top-tier conglomerate family, and her parents were a powerful union of two financial dynasties.
Her father was exactly the kind of “youngest uncle” you’d read about in novels—the late-born son of a top-tier tycoon.
Her mother was the kind of “spoiled little sister” from novels—with five or six older brothers, each a titan in their respective industries, and she was their cherished darling.
As the love child of those two, Shen Zhiyi’s favored status in both families needed no further explanation.
This island was the birthday gift her parents had given her when she turned 18.
An island that big naturally couldn’t go to waste, so Shen Zhiyi had hired people to plan it out.
Farmland, orchards, seafood, poultry, and so on.
Shen Zhiyi was happy for only a moment before her lips turned downward again.
“Ah—”
Seeing this island made her miss her parents even more.
Just as she was thinking about them, a QQ notification sound suddenly rang in her mind.
“Ding ding.”
Shen Zhiyi: “?!”
There was even a chat group?!
She quickly tapped back into the Island App and saw that in the bottom right corner, a dolphin icon was flashing incessantly.
“Ding ding.”
It was the small family group chat the three of them had shared before she transmigrated.
[A Loving Family of Three (6)]
Handsome Dad: Zhizhi! Come save us, we’ve been sent down to the countryside!
Cool Girl: Dad! Where are you? Where’s Mom?!
Handsome Dad: We’re at Ligou Brigade, Shigeda Commune, Ying Township, Zhongzhou City, Yuzhong Province.
After getting a definitive answer, the heart that Shen Zhiyi had been holding up finally settled back down, at least for now.
Beautiful Mom: Sweetie, your dad and I are about to starve to death!
Cool Girl: Isn’t there food on the island? Fill your stomachs first.
Beautiful Mom: ?
Handsome Dad: What island?
Cool Girl: You don’t have one? Just a chat window?
Beautiful Mom: That’s right.
Shen Zhiyi took a deep breath to calm herself, then looked more carefully. Hey, there was a red envelope button below the chat window.
She quickly tapped into it. Good heavens—not only could she send money, she could send ration tickets too!
However, the current balance was zero.
Cool Girl: Mom, Dad, wait a moment. Let me top up first.
Shen Zhiyi’s grandparents on her father’s side had gotten wind of things early and had already transferred the family’s assets, shipping all valuables to Hong Kong City.
They had thought of their granddaughter too.
It was buried under the big crabapple tree in the center of the courtyard.
Shen Zhiyi grabbed a shovel, and before long, she had dug up two small wooden boxes.
One box was filled with gold bars—each as thick as a finger, over a hundred of them at least.
The other box was filled with cash and ration tickets—10-yuan “Great Unity” notes, bundled in stacks of 100, ten bundles in total.
The tickets were all valid nationwide.
The He family couldn’t wait to come and squeeze them dry, could they? Then she’d have to dig a trap for them!
With that thought, she went back to her room, grabbed a palm-sized jewelry box, and stuffed some loose tickets and a small gold bar inside. She planned to toss it into the He family’s cabinet to teach them a proper lesson.
Then, she pulled out one Great Unity note and held it in her hand. Silently chanting “top up” in her mind, the note in her hand vanished the next second.
Looking back at the chat window in the Island System, the Dolphin Coin balance had already changed to ¥: 10.
After that, she took a grain ration ticket in her hand, and a small package icon immediately appeared below the chat window.
Tapping into it, she saw a chibi-style grain ticket had been added to the inventory.
Cool Girl: Dad! Mom! I’m sending you a red envelope!
Cool Girl: After you click to accept, the cash and tickets will likely appear directly in your hands, so you need to hide them first.
About 30 seconds later, Father Shen finally replied.
Handsome Dad: Hidden. Send it!
Cool Girl: Red envelope.
[Your red envelope has been received.]
Handsome Dad: It really appeared in my hand.
Shen Zhiyi thought to herself, just as I suspected. Next were the tickets.
But unexpectedly…
She couldn’t send them.
[System Notice: This week’s chat group message quota has been used up.]
What the heck—there was a usage limit too!
Shen Zhiyi was utterly stunned. This was such a scam!
No, she wasn’t at ease!
She needed to get to the countryside as soon as possible.
Shen Zhiyi glanced at the two small boxes she had just dug up. Come to think of it, it would be better to carry valuables on her person, but how was she supposed to bring them?
[Friendly Reminder: When you don’t know where to put something, consider the warehouse on the island~]
Shen Zhiyi: “!”
The island had a bountiful harvest every year, so she had specially commissioned the construction of a super-large warehouse.
After using her mind to store the cash, tickets, and gold bars into the warehouse, she took a quick look at the warehouse’s contents.
Wow—
Grains, fruits, seafood, poultry—there were abundant stockpiles of everything.
Just as she finished her work, her stomach began to growl. Then a question arose—if objects could be stored inside the island, what about people?
Could people enter too?
She silently thought to herself: Enter.
Her vision went black, and the next second, she was standing inside the villa on her island.
Excellent! This way, not only could she sleep in her own villa every night, but if she ever encountered danger, she could also hide inside directly.
The kitchen was fully equipped with all amenities, and there was no need to worry about supplies.
Shen Zhiyi walked to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a lobster. She decided that this would be her meal for today.
Meanwhile, He Xiang’er also arrived at the chemical plant family compound—the Liu family home, where He Zhiyi’s fiancé lived.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door.
“Shize! Shize!”
Liu Shize, who was cowering in the corner of the living room, shuddered at the sound. Damn it—two months ago, when he had come home on leave, he couldn’t resist the temptation and ended up in bed with her.
But who would have thought that just one time would be enough to get her pregnant? Now He Xiang’er was using this matter to threaten him.
Whenever things didn’t go her way, she would clamor about reporting him for molesting her.
Helpless, he ultimately had no choice but to lead her into his room.
As soon as she entered, He Xiang’er threw herself directly into his arms, cooing sweetly, “Shize-gege, you need to break off the engagement quickly. Otherwise, my belly won’t be able to wait much longer.”
The old woman of the He family had given birth to three sons and one daughter, with the first three being sons. The original He Zhiyi’s father was the third son, named He Daqiang.
Originally, the couple had both worked as temporary workers at the steel factory. After a full ten to twenty years, only one of them managed to become a permanent employee; the other remained a temporary worker.
The old woman’s permanent position was actually secured by Liu Wenying when she adopted He Zhiyi—it was one of the conditions of the adoption.
Later, both of the old couple’s jobs were passed down to He Zhiyi’s biological parents, namely He Daqiang and Liu Xiuxiang.
Even to this day, the family still only had these two jobs.
The three daughters of the He family had all married already. Aside from the original He Zhiyi, there were also two children, He Xiang’er and He Tianci. So this year, at least one of them had to go down to the countryside.
As soon as He Xiang’er entered the house, she heard the old woman’s scolding.
“That good-for-nothing He Zhiyi really thinks she’s all that! Even when you beat a dog, you have to consider its owner. She’s clearly not putting this old woman in her eyes at all!”
A worthless girl like that, and she still dares to be so arrogant!
“Tomorrow I’ll go there myself. Even if I have to tie her up, I’ll drag that little wretch back!”
