Shen Qingli returned to the car and suddenly felt a sour taste in his nose.
She was very grateful for Jiang Yubai's help during this period, but she had nothing but friendship for him.
Unexpectedly, he was misunderstood by his mother.
After divorcing Zhou Yanchen, she didn't want to fall in love again.
Shen Qingli's lips curled up into a bitter smile. She and Zhou Yanchen were not in love at all.
But this marriage has left her with scars.
For the rest of her life, she had no choice but to love herself well. She no longer had the energy to love anyone else.
Originally she had planned to say goodbye to Jiang Yubai before leaving, but now it seems that is no longer necessary.
She took out her phone and saw the account number from which the strange number had sent the message. She quickly wrote: [Within a week, I will transfer 30,000 to this account.]
Jiang's mother also forgot to send another warning, "Let Yubai know about our meeting. I hope Sister Shen will keep her promise."
Shen Qingli sneered and didn't reply to her message.
She checked her account balance. Although she had worked for several years, her savings were not very large. There were only a few hundred thousand yuan in her card.
Adding the money for the house and car, there is still a big gap.
The Shen family has money, but they won't give it to her.
Sadness suddenly overwhelmed her. Since her mother left, she had no one to rely on.
Thinking of her mother, Shen Qingli could no longer hold back her tears while hugging the steering wheel.
She really misses her mother.
For a moment, Shen Qingli was surrounded by sadness. She cried so hard that even her stomach began to feel better.
She pressed one hand on her stomach. She had already developed stomach problems from working these years.
She took some tissues to wipe the tears from her face, then went to the storage box to get some stomach medicine.
There was nothing in it. She remembered that she had finished her stomach medicine last time and forgot to buy more.
Shen Qingli hunched her waist. Now she could only wait for the pain to disappear on its own.
It took her a while to feel better.
Shen Qingli quickly put away his sadness and drove away.
It's no big deal, she can get through any difficulties.
Originally we were planning to sign the contract in a few days, but now it seems we have to hurry up and get the house payment.
While waiting for the traffic light, she put on her Bluetooth headset and called the real estate agent.
"Hello, hello, I'm Shen Qingli. Last time we said we would sign the contract in a few days, but my plan has changed. Could you please ask the buyer if we can sign the contract tomorrow?"
After hearing this, the real estate agent immediately said, "Sister Shen, it's OK. The buyer called me today and asked me when the contract can be officially signed."
"I thought it might take a few days, but it's available tomorrow. The buyer will definitely be very happy."
"Sister Shen, please prepare all the documents tomorrow and hand over the house and the money."
"Okay, I'll come to your store tomorrow morning at nine o'clock to see you."
Shen Qingli hung up the phone and found a random place to eat and chatted with the two of them.
…
Jiang Yubai was sitting in the office, looking at Shen Qingli's cell phone number, his fingers hovering above the dial keys but unable to fall.
At this time, Secretary Jin walked in with a serious look on his face.
Jiang Yubai was very sensitive to this change. He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so worried?"
Secretary Jin's lips trembled slightly, as if he was considering his words. After a moment, he spoke with difficulty: "Boss, I just got the news that someone went to see Doctor Shen."
Jiang Yubai's face suddenly darkened. He stood up suddenly, with a hint of anger in his voice that was difficult to conceal: "What? Did I ask you to find someone to keep an eye on me?"
Secretary Jin looked helpless and guilty, and hurriedly explained: "Boss, I didn't expect that she would go to see Doctor Shen so soon."
"I don't know where she got Dr. Shen's number from. She contacted her directly."
Jiang Yubai's face became increasingly gloomy. He knew very well that his mother must have good intentions in looking for him.
There was a flash of panic in his eyes, and he said anxiously: "Where are they now? I'll go find them."
Secretary Jin made a bitter face and sighed, "Doctor Shen has left. She stayed with that person for about ten minutes."
Jiang Yubai's heart sank suddenly, and an inexplicable fear surged over him like a tide. He was afraid that his mother would say those hurtful words to Xiao Li that would destroy their relationship.
"What did they talk about?" His voice trembled slightly, with a hint of nervousness and anxiety.
Secretary Jin silently took out his cell phone from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Yubai, the bitterness on his face becoming more and more intense: "Boss, please take a look yourself."
He was full of self-blame. Even though the person he found was capable, he was still a step too late, which led to the current difficult situation.
Jiang Yubai stretched out his hand, his face livid as he took the phone. His slender fingers turned slightly white due to the force.
He took a deep breath and clicked on the video. In the video, Shen Qingli and Jiang's mother were sitting opposite each other.
Jiang's mother's aggressive posture and expression were like sharp swords, piercing Jiang Yubai's eyes.
The content of their conversation made Jiang Yubai's face look even uglier.
When I heard Shen Qingli say, "I have never thought about climbing up the ladder of your Jiang family, let alone stepping into your door."
"I'll see him again later."
Jiang Yubai felt as if his body was being grabbed fiercely by an invisible hand, and a burst of severe pain came, almost making it impossible for him to breathe.
He placed his hands on the table and clenched them into fists unconsciously, with veins bulging, as if all the anger and pain were concentrated in his hands.
Secretary Jin stood aside and witnessed all this, and was also extremely anxious. He knew very well the boss's feelings for Dr. Shen.
But now this situation is like a basin of cold water, ruthlessly extinguishing the flame of hope that has just been ignited.
Jiang Yubai's eyes were red as he reached for his cell phone. He dialed Shen Qingli's number directly, but all he heard from the receiver was a cold, mechanical "beep".
He repeated it over and over again, and it was still the same.
Jiang Yubai was panicked and anxious. The love he had expressed so clearly was spoken out by his mother. He knew that he had brought endless harm to Shen Qingli.
After the call was answered, Jiang Yubai quickly sent a message to Shen Qingli.
His words were full of apologies, but no matter how many messages he sent, there was no response.
Secretary Jin stood aside, watching all this with his anxious eyes. He could not help but whisper:
"Boss, what that person said is so hurtful. Doctor Shen should really meet with you."
Jiang Yubai's hands were shaking as he held the phone. Shen Qingli had always been the person he had been careful with.
But why did his mother mess everything up?
"Secretary Jin, I'm going to be out for a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out in a hurry like a gust of wind.
Jiang Yubai drove directly to the district where Shen Qingli lived. Along the way, his thoughts were tangled like a tangled mess.
After arriving at the destination, he could only wait in the parking lot. He didn't know which building Shen Qingli lived in.
He dialed the familiar number again, but still no one answered.
