Li Ke nodded and said, "I will run my beauty salon well. If the business is good, I will open a chain store in the future."

She said: "Now that I see my stepmother can't even pay the rent, I feel that she deserves it. I feel happy and I wish she could be even more destitute. She is the one who has brought our family to this state."

Because of the appearance of her stepmother, her parents divorced.

Because the stepmother became Mrs. Li, the Li family went bankrupt.

Of course, the stepmother was wrong, but the biggest fault lay with her scumbag father. After he made money, he became arrogant and followed others in keeping mistresses and gambling. The result was that he was back to the pre-liberation era and even owed huge debts.

"Third Young Master, do you think I'm a bit of a bad person? My family is bankrupt and my father can't even pay the rent, but I'm still gloating over their misfortune. I have money but I don't want to pay their rent or help them pay off their debts."

"I'm hoping my stepmother will become more powerful, and I'm hoping she'll suffer more torture. I'm even thinking of adding insult to injury. Am I really that bad?"

"Not bad. No one who is not a saint can forgive your stepmother. If it were me, I would have kicked your stepmother when she was down. You are just not helping her and watching her suffer. The suffering she endured was not caused by you. It is the retribution for her meddling in other people's marriages."

Li Ke said: "It's her retribution."

She looked at Jun Li again and said gratefully, "Third Young Master, thank you. If you hadn't helped us, my three siblings wouldn't have such a peaceful life today. Even if I hadn't been sold, I would have helped pay off the debt."

Now, the debts owed by her father and stepmother do not need to be repaid by her children for the time being, so her three siblings can live a stable life.

Jun Li smiled and said, "If you want to thank me, please treat me to a seafood dinner later."

Li Ke: "...Okay."

Always ask her to treat us to dinner.

"Looking at how reluctantly you agreed, your gratitude to me must be as thin as paper, right? It's not even worth a seafood dinner."

"No, as long as Third Young Master is kind enough, I can treat you to dinner every day."

Jun Li smiled and said, "You want to thank me, to repay me. If I don't give you the chance, you'll feel like you owe me a huge favor and won't be able to eat or sleep well. So, I accept your repayment and let you treat me to dinner every day."

Li Ke: "...Can I choose the dining location? Third Young Master, I'm not afraid that you'll say I'm not sincere enough. I'm really broke, and I can't treat you to dinner at the Fengchen Hotel every day."

"You treat me to dinner every day at the Fengchen Hotel, and I won't charge you any money. Then you accompany me to social events, and I don't have to pay you for blocking the drinks for me. This way, we can offset each other. How about that?"

Li Ke thought this was okay, but he also felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he agreed hesitantly.

"It's a deal. We'll split the bill for the seafood dinner later. You pay for what you want to eat, and I pay for what I order. I won't really let you treat us, because I know your wallet is really tight right now."

She invested in a beauty salon, and it's still uncertain how the business will be now. She needs funds to turn over, and she also has to support her younger siblings in school. The cost of his seafood dinner is too much for her, and she is afraid that it will hurt her.

Although Jun Li wanted to cheat her, he wouldn't do it too harshly. He had to let her live so that he could continue to cheat her.

Li Ke: ...Can she take back what she said about the Third Young Master being a good person?

Jun Li's car stopped at the door of a large sea view villa. After he honked the horn, someone came out to open the door soon.

"I only come here to stay occasionally, but the villa still needs to be cleaned, so I hired four workers to live here permanently to ensure that the villa is spotless and everything is available every time I come."

"Third Master, is this the villa under your name?"

Li Ke asked casually.

Jun Li parked the car in the open-air parking lot and said, "Of course it's the villa under my name. Our Jun family's sea view villa is not here. It's much bigger than mine, and the decoration style is different."

The house is jointly owned by the family and the decoration style is retro. Because it was the property purchased by grandpa for grandma, the decoration style is naturally according to grandma's preferences.

My grandparents are from an older generation, and their aesthetic values ​​were different from what they have now.

"It's not convenient to take you to that sea view villa now."

Li Ke smiled and said, "I was just asking casually. I'm not asking the Third Young Master to take me there."

The Third Young Master brought her to the beach now because she was in a bad mood, so he brought her to the beach to relax.

She didn't know how long it had been since she came here for vacation.

In fact, she knew before that in this sea view villa area, the young master of the Jun family bought a villa here, and the young master of the Ouyang family also had a house here, but she had never really had contact with the people of the Jun family before, and she didn't dare to shamelessly make friends with the Jun family and curry favor with the Jun family.

Her father also had a beautiful dream, imagining that she could win the favor of the young master of the Jun family and marry into the Jun family, so that their Li family’s business would not have to worry about it.

Her father said that if he could become one of the Jun family's relatives, he would have a much higher status in the business world of City A.

She was often taught privately that if she met the Young Master of the Jun Family at a banquet, she must find a way to get close to him.

She knew her own weight and also had the idea of ​​doing the opposite of her father, so every time she saw the young master of the Jun family at a banquet, she would watch from afar, never approach to talk, and certainly would not make any move to pursue him.

Of course, with her status at the time, it was still difficult for her to get in touch with the young master of the Jun family, and she didn't want to overestimate her abilities.

Every time the young masters of the Jun family appeared at a banquet, many daughters of famous families would approach them. The wealth of her Li family could not compare with those of the real famous families.

Even the real daughters of famous families couldn't get the favor of the young master of the Jun family, let alone her.

Unexpectedly, after she fell into poverty, she became closer to the young master of the Jun family. Of course, she was just a worker in that family, and it was because of her work that she was able to come into close contact with these proud sons of heaven.

In the past, Li Ke would never think about creating sparks with the young master of the Jun family, and now he would never think about it.

Jun Li saw that she was in a much better mood.

But there was no explanation as to why she couldn't be taken there now.

Because there are more workers in the large sea view villa owned by their family, generally they will only bring their girlfriends to live in the villa, unless they are invited by his sisters-in-law, which means something different.

"Third Young Master."

Led by the housekeeper, the four workers respectfully greeted Jun Li in unison.

The young housekeeper and four workers were first trained by the head housekeeper of Fengchen Villa, and then arranged to work for Junli according to Junli's wishes. However, their wages were paid by Junli and no longer through Fengchen Villa's account.
