Ji Tong corrected him seriously: "No! That's not it!"
Gong Yanli didn't start the car, but asked seriously, "You've never had a boyfriend before?"
Although Ji Tong doesn't think being a lifelong single is shameful, she still says, "I'm different from you. I was a good student when I was in school, and I only thought about how to study. Moreover, my principle for dating is to be single rather than settle for less."
She didn't criticize Gong Yanli, but it seemed like she was talking about him.
Gong Yanli knew that what had just happened might indeed have been Ji Tong's first kiss: "I'm sorry, what happened today was an accident. I can... pay more."
The man paused for a moment. Ji Tong had been thinking that if Gong Yanli wanted to invite her to dinner or something, she would definitely refuse.
But when it came to adding money...
Who would turn down money?
Ji Tong immediately said, "Sure, that was my first kiss. I've never had a boyfriend or held hands with a boy before. You should know how important a first kiss is for a girl, right? I was just trying to fake a kiss from the camera angle, but you suddenly turned around! Even though I'm 26, a first kiss is a first kiss."
Ji Tong was afraid that Gong Yanli would bring up her age, so she spoke first.
Gong Yanli's eyes were filled with laughter. "Then how about I add another 300,000?"
Ji Tong only realized how hard it was to earn money after she started working.
Three hundred thousand? She can't earn that much money in a year!
Thinking that Gong Yanli was just a doctor at Shenghe Hospital, he hated capitalists but still bowed to money. "Sure! Adding the original amount, it's 400,000. Transfer it to my card, and make sure to note it's a gift. Don't try anything funny."
Gong Yanli was looking down, preparing to transfer the money.
Ji Tong suddenly remembered something more important, "Um... Dr. Gong, I have a question for you."
"What?" Gong Yanli stopped moving.
"You're so rich, you don't all make money by taking bribes for surgeries, do you? Legally speaking, that's bribery. If someone reports you one day, the money I took will be illicit gains, and I'll have to return it."
Ji Tong isn't a litigation lawyer, but his family runs a law firm, and he's heard a lot about these kinds of messy things in the past few years.
Gong Yanli laughed and said, "Don't worry, no, every single dollar is hard-earned money."
“Capitalists exploit us ordinary working people, and you exploit the capitalists in return, right?” Ji Tong asked.
"I guess so," Gong Yanli nodded.
St. He Hospital is a membership-based private hospital. Those who can afford to pay the membership fees here are definitely wealthy and influential, and are basically successful in business.
From a certain perspective, Ji Tong wasn't wrong.
Ji Tong was relieved: "Okay, go ahead and transfer the money."
One minute later, Ji Tong received a transfer of 400,000 yuan from Gong Yanli.
After confirming the numbers, she immediately opened WeChat and started sending messages.
Gong Yanli watched as she rapidly typed messages to someone, sending three or four messages in a minute. Curious, he couldn't help but ask, "Who are you messaging?"
"Want to know?" Ji Tong said with a smile, "I texted Xu Wan to ask if she's free tonight and I'd like to invite her to dinner."
"Invite her?"
"Yes, I was the one who hurt her before, and I feel very guilty. But if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have had such a good opportunity to make money. I don't know how to make up for my mistakes, so I can only treat her to meals and buy her things."
Ji Tong was still typing as he spoke.
Gong Yanli waited quietly.
The woman chatted with Xu Wan for two or three minutes before saying, "Okay, Xu Wan and I have arranged to have dinner together tonight. I need to buy her a gift this afternoon before we go to dinner."
Gong Yanli looked at the woman and said, "Where are you going to buy something? I still have some time, I can take you there."
"Then take me home, I'll change out of this eye-catching outfit first."
Ji Tong carefully inspected the skirt, and only felt relieved after confirming that it was neither dirty nor damaged.
Miyazaki didn't say anything more.
When the car arrived at Ji Tong's house, just as the woman was about to open the door and get out, Gong Yanli called out to her, "Miss Ji."
"What?" Ji Tong asked warily, clutching her phone. "You're not going to back out, are you?"
Gong Yanli leaned over and took the suit jacket that had been splashed with red wine from the back row, then handed it to her: "I got the clothes dirty to protect you, so I think you should take this jacket to the dry cleaners."
Ji Tong stood there stunned for three seconds, countless complaints flashing through his mind, but in the end he still maintained a polite smile and said, "Dr. Gong, you really are... frugal when you should be frugal, and extravagant when you should be extravagant."
