On the sa night, so people were far from feeling comfortable.
After leaving the banquet, Qi Yayun received a call from He Qingchi at a bar and hurried over to find her.
When she arrived, He Qingchi was already drunk out of her mind, yelling and cursing Jin Jiachao and all n behind the closed door of a private room.
"Qingchi! You’ve had too much! Stop this!"
He Qingchi opened her dazed eyes and stared at her for a long ti before recognizing it was Qi Yayun.
After a foolish chuckle, she angrily shouted, "Yayun! Tell , tell , am I just trash? Why would I fancy an old man who pays no attention! Throwing myself at him doesn’t work, right? If I want, there are so many younger n who’d hold up high.
What the f*** am I doing this for? It’s not like all the n in the world are dead—why insist on a decrepit old man!"
"Qingchi! Stop talking nonsense, let take you ho!" Qi Yayun felt deeply annoyed. At this age, even though she was unmarried, she wasn’t so young maiden anymore. Why still pretend to be innocent? Pretend to be young?
Doesn’t she care about being laughed at? Painting an old cucumber green doesn’t make it fresh.
He Qingchi suddenly turned around and shoved Qi Yayun, "Stay out of this! Let tell you, Qi Yayun, don’t think I don’t know what’s going on! You’re playing , aren’t you?
If it weren’t for you constantly talking up Jin Jiachao in my ear, would I have fallen for him? And as for Wanru, out of the three of us, only Wanru is living her best life! Why is that? What does she have that I don’t!
I tried to teach her a small lesson, but that little girl nad Li Si ruined it all—such **** bad luck!"
Qi Yayun glanced at the door, angrily pushing the unsteady He Qingchi onto the sofa, her gaze growing sharp: "Are you crazy? How could you blurt these things out?"
Back then, she had aid for a double win; if Peng Wanru’s face truly got ruined, first, she could use the incident to cause trouble for Li Si’s career; second, she could step in as the diator and earn Li Si’s gratitude.
But she never expected Li Si to have the skill to treat the injury.
It was completely beyond her expectations.
But now, it was too late to say anything. She had acted impulsively and done sothing stupid.
With Leng Mochen’s notoriously vengeful personality, he might already be plotting his revenge against her!
Still, she wasn’t afraid, as she held sothing they weren’t aware of in her hand—a trump card.
He Qingchi sobered up a bit after Qi Yayun’s forceful blow. Squinting in resentnt, she struggled to stand and pointed at her nose, cursing: "Qi Yayun! Now I see through you! Normally, you act all innocent, but the most poisonous mind is yours! I’m just a good gun, and you load the cannon for to fire!
If I’d known about Li Si and Brother Jin’s relationship, I wouldn’t have made a fool of myself in front of her!
But saying this now is useless—in any case, she already knows about my past. She doesn’t think much of , right? Well, He Qingchi won’t back down today! As long as he’s alive, I’ll make sure to marry him!"
Qi Yayun smirked wickedly: "Fine! Qingchi, don’t worry, this ti I’ll definitely help you with all my heart!"
...
The next day, Li Si woke up feeling sore all over, as if she’d been crushed repeatedly. anwhile, Leng Mochen had already left for the company, looking refreshed.
Annoyed, she pounded the bed—how did she lose control and get taken advantage of again? She really had no self-restraint!
Just then, Aunt Zhang ca upstairs to knock on her door, saying Jin Jiachao had arrived.
Li Si hurriedly freshened up before going downstairs, suddenly recalling the promise Mr. Jin had made to visit yesterday.
Damn it! Such carelessness! How embarrassing!
When she descended, Jin Jiachao was gleefully holding Buding on his lap, the old man and the little child indulging in so nonsensical exchange.
From the looks of it, they seed to be having fun.
On the floor beside the coffee table were four or five boxes of varying sizes.
Through the open boxes, Li Si could see toys like little cars and swords—clearly things boys would love.
"Mr. Jin! I’m so sorry! I woke up late!" Li Si hurried forward to greet him.
Jin Jiachao looked at Li Si kindly. Even fresh out of bed, with her bare face and simple white clothes, standing there, she was pleasant to the eye.
He chuckled and said, "Li Si, it wasn’t you waking up late! It’s Mr. Jin who ca too early! I’m flying to Shandong this afternoon, so I ca early while I had ti.
Don’t think I’m being rude now!"
Li Si sat opposite them and said with a smile, "Mr. Jin, what are you saying? You’re welco anyti here! And why did you bring so much? That’s too kind of you! Buding, quickly thank Grandpa Jin with a flying kiss!"
Recently, Little Buding had picked up so gestures like putting his palms together to say thank you, waving bye-bye, or blowing a flying kiss—all very adorable.
Whenever Li Si was about to leave, he would shake his chubby little hands to wave her off with a flying kiss!
Little Buding blinked his bright, gem-like eyes and giggled: "Giggle!"
His hands kept making the thanking gestures, making Jin Jiachao feel so delighted that his heart seed to lt.
The longing in his heart for grandchildren grew even more intense.
Li Si casually asked, "By the way, Mr. Jin, why are you suddenly going to Shandong?"
He hadn’t ntioned it yesterday—was it to see Zhuang Liqun?
Jin Jiachao sighed heavily, "It’s Yichen’s uncle who ran into so trouble! I only learned the news last night. Li Si, you’re not an outsider, so it’s okay to talk about this. Around midnight, he got drunk and drove, crashing into soone. The other party is in critical condition, still undergoing ergency treatnt. He himself suffered fractured legs and internal injuries."
"Oh my god! How could this happen? Mr. Jin, please don’t stress yourself out!" Li Si was utterly shocked, still vividly recalling eting Su Ting once.
His image remained crystal clear in her mind—soone who seed like they were part of the underworld. There wasn’t any trace of righteousness in him.
People like him simply aren’t trustworthy.
Jin Jiachao laughed and waved his hand, "I’m not stressed! This ti, I’m going mainly to handle his issues.
I also plan to move the charity foundation to Beijing—if you want to do charity, you can do it anywhere.
Back then, I set up the charity organization to find my sister’s son, but in the end, it caused harm to him.
Over these years, he hasn’t only been idle but has also been overconfident with a misguided belief in his own competence.
After I found that child, I made so adjustnts to the foundation, hired professionals to manage it, and told him that all he needs to do is wait obediently each month to receive his money.
But, unfortunately, greed knows no bounds! He even tried to manipulate others to deceive and get more money out of my hands.
As if it were that easy!
Earlier, I held back from completely withdrawing, thinking I’d give him another chance!
But he really is just worthless—it’s hopeless! Anyway, no point in talking about it further!"
