Chapter 173 Come to pick me up in person
Besides, in the perception of the media and those interested, shouldn’t Ji Bingqian’s wife drive a luxury car worth tens of millions and sit elegantly in the back seat when she goes out?
Who would pay attention to an ordinary office worker who drives a small, broken car worth tens of thousands of dollars?
Maybe this is the best disguise.
Ji Bingqian looked at her, his eyes were calm, but like a mirror, reflecting all her little thoughts.
He asked, "You don't plan to use the card I gave you?"
After a pause, he lowered his voice, and every word he spoke struck her heart clearly.
"Are you planning to earn money to buy it yourself?"
Xu Yueqing nodded and answered carefully.
"I think..."
"You don't want to owe me too much."
Ji Bingqian interrupted her before she finished speaking.
She could only nod again, her voice so soft it sounded like a sigh.
"You've helped me so much."
These words fell to the ground like a feather, but they created a deep chasm between the two of them.
Ji Bingqian looked at her with a deep gaze, as if he wanted to see through her. There was no blame or displeasure in his eyes, but it made Xu Yueqing feel uneasy.
After a few seconds, he finally looked away without saying anything.
Just then, a black Bentley stopped by the roadside.
The driver quickly got out of the car and respectfully opened the back door.
"Mr. Ji, Madam, please get in the car."
The word "Madam" made Xu Yueqing's ears warm.
She is still not used to this name.
Ji Bingqian leaned sideways and motioned for her to go first.
Xu Yueqing didn't act pretentiously and got into the car with her head down.
Ji Bingqian followed and sat beside her.
The car started smoothly.
The air in the car seemed to freeze.
Neither of them spoke.
Is he unhappy?
This thought kept circling in Xu Yueqing's mind and she couldn't get rid of it.
But she couldn't understand why he was unhappy.
Isn't it normal that she doesn't want to owe him too much?
There was an agreement between them, and she didn't want to blur the boundaries, and she didn't want to really turn herself into a dodder that had to depend on him to survive.
Is there anything wrong with this?
Or, in the eyes of people like Ji Bingqian, her act of drawing a line is itself an offense?
The more Xu Yueqing thought about it, the more confused she became.
In this silence, Ji Bingqian's cell phone suddenly rang.
Xu Yueqing turned his gaze to the car window.
Ji Bingbingqian answered the phone, but before he could say anything, a female voice with obvious sobs came clearly from the receiver.
It was Ai Xue's voice.
"Where are you?" Ai Xue's voice was sticky, full of grievances from crying.
Ji Bingqian frowned but said nothing.
The silence from his end completely ignited the emotions on the other end of the phone.
Ai Xue's voice exploded instantly, rising to a piercing pitch, with a desperate accusation in her words.
"Why do you all want to bully me?"
Xu Yueqing's back tensed a little.
Ai Xue on the other end of the phone continued.
"Ji Bingqian, you said you would take good care of me, why didn't you even reply to my message?"
Having said this, she seemed to be unable to hold back any longer and burst into tears in grievance.
Immediately afterwards, a shrill DJ shouting sound exploded from the receiver, chaotic and noisy.
Ji Bingqian remained silent until the music faded a little, then he spoke. His voice was as flat as a straight line, and no emotion could be heard.
"I'll ask the driver to pick you up."
"I don't want it!" Ai Xue refused without a second thought, her voice rising to the point of being out of control. "I want you to come pick me up! Ji Bingqian, I want you to come in person!"
