Chapter 249 Jumping into the River to Escape Debt

"We just sent him to the hospital, it was someone else who really saved him," Ye Jinmo explained.

Qian Tengyue didn't know Ji Minghua, so he quickly took out his mobile phone and opened the short video. The video of rescuing people by the river at night had become popular.

"It was these uncles who loved winter swimming who saved the life."

Tan Qinghuan replied: "Your son is fine now, we will leave first."

Ye Jinmo nodded politely and left the hospital with her friends.

After leaving the door, Qian Tengyue looked back and asked, "Do you know that person?"

"That's Ji Sichen's aunt."

"What?" He frowned, instantly unhappy, "Is it the eldest daughter of the Ji family who was involved with Jiang Xiwen?"

In the circle of wealthy families, it is basically transparent and open to who is close to whom. Ever since I learned that she and Jiang Xiwen are inseparable, I don't have a good impression of this person.

"If I had known it was her son, I would not have saved him. Jumping into the river on New Year's Eve, isn't this obviously a gimmick!" Qian Tengyue beat his chest in annoyance.

Tan Qinghuan hit his shoulder and said, "We are just helping to send them to the hospital! That's enough, just consider it as a good deed for yourself."

Ye Jinmo was pulled into the car by her friend. She looked at the hospital which gradually disappeared from her sight, as if she was thinking about something.

This man chose to make such a scene at the busiest place on the river bank. It was obvious that he had no intention of committing suicide and was just waiting to be rescued.

Could it be that he found out that Mr. Jiang gave all the companies to Jiang Xihao and Jiang Xiwen, and wanted to attract the attention of the Jiang family in this way?

I can't understand it. This method is too extreme.

In the ward.

Ji Minghua looked at his son lying on the hospital bed and kept wiping away tears.

"Mom, it's New Year's Day, don't cry. You're crying away all your good fortune!" Jiang Xirui said impatiently.

"What happened? Why did you jump into the river?" she asked in a panic. "You are my only son. If anything happens to you, how will I live?"

"Don't worry, it's not like I can't swim. If I don't do this, will Grandpa still remember me? He gave the entire Jiang family to that rubbish Jiang Xihao and didn't leave anything for me!"

Thinking of this, he pounded the bed angrily.

"Don't worry, I've already talked to your cousin. You can go to the Ji branch."

Hearing this, his eyes lit up: "Cousin agreed?"

If he could join the Ji family, why would he still be bothered with the Jiang family?

"Of course I agreed. You are his cousin."

Jiang Xirui felt extremely comfortable.

At this time, Ji Sichen knocked on the door and came in.

"Cousin, you're here!"

"Better?"

"Much better..." Jiang Xirui glanced at her crying mother, "Mom, I want to talk to my cousin alone."

"Okay, then you guys chat."

There were only two people left in the huge ward.

Jiang Xirui pulled out the needle from his hand, got down quickly, and smiled flatteringly: "Cousin, I heard from my mother that you agree to let me join the Ji family?"

Ji Sichen didn't say anything, his clear eyes were chilled as he waited for his next words.

"It's like this," Jiang Xirui rubbed his hands, his eyes rolling, "I'm a little short of money recently, can you lend me some money?"

"Lost the bet again?" the man asked indifferently.

"What are you talking about? My money is only temporarily deposited in Las Vegas. I only need a little capital and I can win it back soon! Besides, if you let me join the branch, I have to prepare to do a big job. How can the company operate without money?"

Ji Sichen almost laughed out of anger: "I paid you back your gambling debt of 30 million US dollars half a month ago. Do you think my money came from the wind?"

"Cousin, don't say that. You and I both know the strength of the Ji family. A mere 30 million is nothing in your eyes. Besides, my mother helped you so much back then. It's understandable that you pay her some compensation now."

Jiang Xirui knelt on the ground and grabbed Ji Sichen's trouser legs. "Cousin, please, this is really the last time. I have returned to China and am ready to work hard. Please help me one last time, otherwise I will really be driven to death by those debt collectors!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely be able to run the company well. This money... just treat it as my salary in advance, okay?"

"So your real purpose of jumping into the river was to escape from debt?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across his face: "Not only that, I also wanted to attract my grandfather's attention. I'm back home, and I must make some noise to let everyone know!"

His words became more and more confident.

After a long silence, Ji Sichen finally spoke, his words without any warmth: "From now on, I will not pay you back. If you can't handle this matter well, you don't have to come to work at Ji's."

After saying that, the man left the ward, leaving him alone in tears.

Ji Minghua rushed into the ward, understood the situation, and was so angry that he almost fainted.

"Didn't you say you didn't gamble anymore?"

She kept beating her son.

Jiang Xirui pushed her hand away and said, "Okay, I didn't ask you for money!"

He is a man of seven feet tall and will definitely not rely on his parents for support.

If I took all his mother's money, it would be so embarrassing to tell others about it.

Since Ji Sichen is unwilling to give it, then he will go and ask the Jiang family for it!

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, it is the sixth day of the New Year. The annual holiday is about to end and most people have to go back to work.

Ji Sichen brought New Year's greetings to Baicaotang.

It was rare that Ye Chong was happy, so he invited him to have lunch with him at noon.

Doubao was running around him happily.

Ye Jinqian cooked a table of dishes himself.

This made Ye Jinmo very happy.

"Brother, I haven't had your cooking for a long time, my favorite spicy chicken!"

She picked up the food with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.

"There are outsiders here!" Ye Jinqian stopped her.

outsider?

She looked at Ji Sichen and felt puzzled.

Brother Chen is not an outsider!

You have to follow the rules when eating at the Zhong family, but why should you be so restrained when eating at Baicaotang?

Noticing the little girl's gaze, Ji Sichen raised his eyes and smiled: "Eat first if you are hungry."

He automatically ignored Ye Jinqian's words.

Ye Chong looked happily at the Moutai he brought.

"Mr. Ye, I'd like to have a drink with you at noon today!" Ji Sichen opened the bottle of wine.

Just as Ye Chong was about to agree, he felt a chill on his back.

He looked up quietly, saw Ye Jinqian's tightly pursed lips, and chuckled dryly.

"You drove here, so don't drink!" His eyes never left the bottle.

"It's okay, I'll ask my secretary to pick me up. It's not easy to get together today, so we won't stop until we're drunk!"

"That's right! Don't stop until you're drunk!"

Ye Chong pulled Ji Sichen to sit at the dining table and asked Ye Jinmo to help pour wine.

Looking at the man's eyebrows, she felt suspicious.

Today's dinner felt like more than just drinking. This humble attitude seemed like an attempt to please her master.

Ji Sichen raised his eyebrows at her, his lips curled into a smile, with a seductive look in the corners of his eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly looked away.

Ye Chong was busy smelling the wine and didn't notice their eye contact at all.

It was Ye Jinqian who took all of this in.

He pushed the plate of spicy chicken forward: "Try this, Jinmo's favorite dish."

Ji Sichen's brows changed slightly, and he hesitated for a moment as he looked at the plate of red peppers.

"What? You don't like spicy food? It seems that when you usually eat together, Jinmo is the one who accommodates you?" Ye Jinqian said lightly.
