Upon hearing this, Ji Chen's face immediately darkened, wondering why Jiang Xue was thinking such things about him.
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just hope you get better soon and don't have to suffer like that."
Jiang Xue froze. "Thank you for your concern."
Ji Chen's brows, which had been slightly furrowed, furrowed even more, and he looked at Jiang Xue with a hint of reluctance in his eyes. Why did she seem so distant from him? Was it because he had neglected her for too long?
She now sees herself entirely as a partner, or even an employer.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He put down his chopsticks and took out a thick wad of money from his pocket, placing it in front of Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue stared blankly at the money, her face embarrassed. "Why are you giving me money?"
Ji Chen pretended to be completely unconcerned and tactically took a sip of water. "Salary, handed over."
Jiang Xue immediately pushed the money back to him, saying, "I am a bit greedy, but I can't accept this money. Aren't we going to get a divorce sooner or later?"
Ji Chen frowned, feeling extremely disappointed by Jiang Xue's misunderstanding.
But in my heart, I wonder if Jiang Xue no longer has him in her heart at all.
Doesn't she want to stay by his side for even a moment longer?
And Sun Ze'an is a highly educated intellectual. Does that mean Jiang Xue has no intention of keeping anything for herself now?
"Didn't you help me take care of the child? The wages I paid you were agreed upon beforehand, right? You can accept them."
Jiang Xue was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, "Oh dear, didn't I already receive my wages this month?"
"Take it first, stop talking so much nonsense."
Jiang Xue watched Ji Chen's hurried departure, feeling quite puzzled.
However, with that thick wad of money there, Jiang Xue had to find out exactly how much it was.
She counted the stack of banknotes, a full five hundred yuan. She was completely stunned. What on earth had Ji Chen been doing? He wasn't this good at making money when he was with the original owner of this body. How come he's suddenly become so successful?
"Ji Chen, come here." Jiang Xue commanded sternly.
He had already stepped outside when Jiang Xue startled him, and he quickly turned back, staring at her with a sinister look. "What is it?"
“I can’t take this money. You didn’t earn this much in the previous two years, and now you’ve earned so much in less than ten days. Have you been doing something shady?”
Ji Chen was immediately displeased. He stepped forward and argued with Jiang Xue, "You're allowed to do business and make money, but it's considered shameful when it comes to me?"
Ji Chen was furious at Jiang Xue's tactless words.
Jiang Xue realized she had spoken a bit too harshly and quickly changed her tone, "I was a bit harsh just now, but I was just worried."
The two used to have a good relationship, but now it seems there's a bit of a rift between them.
Jiang Xue stood up somewhat unhappily, "The child agreed on a price per month before, so that's the price per month. I can collect next month's payment in advance, and you can take the extra."
Jiang Xue was quite unhappy, wondering if Ji Chen thought she was too greedy and was delaying their divorce proceedings, so he deliberately gave her money.
What kind of person do they take Jiang Xue for? It's true that she's greedy, but she still has dignity.
"How about I give up the land, the forest, and everything else? Let's go to your uncle's place tomorrow and get our marriage certificate. That money isn't mine, and I shouldn't take advantage of it. I was out of my mind before and didn't think things through."
