Lu Zhicheng snorted coldly: “I was busy eating just now, and then I was busy making phone calls after eating. I thought you had forgotten me a long time ago.”

Li Jing'er said softly, "How could that be, Zhicheng? You know I love you the most. I'm just too tired from making money lately."

Lu Zhicheng snorted coldly: "What's the matter?"

Li Jing'er looked at him admiringly. She knew that Lu Zhicheng liked to look at him with this kind of little woman's eyes the most.

Sure enough, Lu Zhicheng was in a much better mood, and even freed one hand to hug her.

"Alright, alright, you know I'm going to fall for this."

Li Jing'er said gently, "Zhicheng, I know you are the best."

Her eyes were slightly red, and she mustered up her courage: "My parents just called me and said that my brother is seriously ill. I have sent them all my savings, but it is still not enough. I really don't want to lose my brother..."

The more she spoke, the sadder she became, crying like a pear blossom in the rain. Seeing the beauty's tears made Lu Zhicheng feel distressed.

"How much more is left?"

Li Jing'er hesitated and said a number: "One hundred thousand is still missing..."

Lu Zhicheng's throbbing heart suddenly calmed down.

When Lu Ma heard this figure, she was immediately furious: "One hundred thousand? Are you crazy? Are you asking Zhicheng to pay you this one hundred thousand?"

"You're already plotting to steal our money before you even step foot inside our house! Ultimately, it was your shameless woman's fault that Zhicheng was kicked out of the house in the first place."

After Lu Ma's outburst, although Li Jing'er felt very ashamed and angry, she had to endure it because of her brother's illness.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhicheng also looked embarrassed: "Jing'er, I think your brother is still young. How long will it take to treat him like this?"

His tone was tactful, but he actually just didn't want to spend money.

Li Jing'er wiped away her tears: "I don't know. I really hope he can get better. Now I can't do anything except praying for him and raising money. Zhicheng..."

Li Jing'er was so sad that she cried and looked up at Lu Zhicheng, but Lu Zhicheng was unmoved.

"Jing'er, this is a large sum of money. As you know, our family is in a difficult situation right now."

Lu Ma also echoed: "Yes, yes, it's about your family's affairs when your brother was sick. Besides, you haven't even entered our house, and you're already thinking about our money. You are such a vicious woman."

Mother Lu frowned and looked at Li Jing'er with disgust, as if she was going to kick her out of the house in the next second.

Li Jing'er also knew that asking for money rashly would cause disgust, but she did not expect that she would be rejected so quickly after accompanying Lu Zhicheng for so long.

She looked hurt: "Zhicheng, our relationship of such a long time can't even be worth a hundred thousand?"

Lu Zhicheng stood up and said, "Alright Jing'er, after all, it was you who got close to me in the first place. You caused me to get divorced and lose my property. I just made the same mistake every man makes. Besides, where do I even have any money now?"

Li Jing'er didn't expect Lu Zhicheng to be so heartless. She was shocked and said, "Zhicheng, you clearly said that we will never be apart in this life. We are a perfect match..."

She originally thought that Lu Zhicheng would give at least half, but she didn't expect there would be no room for negotiation.

Compared to this, Manager Gao, who directly gave her money and arranged work, even looked more handsome.

Lu Zhicheng frowned: "One hundred thousand is too much. Do you want me to rob a bank, Jing'er? Besides, we haven't even been together yet and you asked me for money. I thought you were just interested in me, but I didn't expect you to be such a superficial person. I misjudged you."

Li Jing'er looked incredulous. Lu Zhicheng frowned and turned his head away: "There's no room for negotiation on this matter. Jing'er, think it over. Do you want me or the money?"

One hundred thousand. Didn’t mom just say that she had one hundred thousand? But that was the capital for investment. When he made a lot of money, not to mention one Li Jing’er, even ten Li Jing’ers would come into his arms obediently. What else would he care about?

Li Jing'er just watched Lu Zhicheng walk away, her heart sinking little by little to the bottom of the sea.

"Is this for money? I'm doing this for my brother!"

Mother Lu's face was not looking good either. "Li Jing'er, the neighbors have been looking at us with strange eyes these days. Even if Zhicheng likes you, I won't let a mistress like you come home. You'd better give up this idea. From today on, you have to move out of our house. Otherwise, it won't sound good if others tell others."

"A single man and a single woman should have separated long ago. It's inappropriate for them to live in Zhicheng's house."

Although the house belongs to her, what belongs to her is her son's.

Lu Ma even issued an ultimatum: "From today on, you and Zhicheng have nothing to do with each other. Stop pestering our Zhicheng."

Li Jing'er looked at Lu Zhicheng with red eyes and took his hand: "Zhicheng, can't you give a little to help my brother?"

Lu Zhicheng frowned and suddenly pulled his hand away: "Jing'er, I thought you were a gentle, considerate and understanding woman. I didn't expect that you are not only a money worshipper, but also a brother-supporting demon. I really can't continue to live with you."

Li Jing'er was stunned. Was this man still the gentle and considerate man she usually was? She had never expected that a mere 100,000 yuan would make him so heartless?
