Mother Lu was so angry that she jumped up and down: "Am I crazy?"
Forget it, this woman probably doesn’t know that her son makes a lot of money. I can’t tell her, otherwise this woman will pester her son again.
It was hard to see that she had no interest in Zhicheng these days, so she had to strike while the iron was hot.
So Lu Ma waved her hands and said, "It's nothing, nothing. What's there for a woman like you to know?"
Li Jing'er wanted to roll her eyes. Isn't Lu Ma a woman herself?
"Mom, I'm hungry, do you have any food?"
Lu Zhicheng felt a little angry when he saw Li Jing'er went straight to the kitchen as soon as she came back without even looking at him.
It’s okay to be embarrassed by Pei Anan, but Li Jing’er has always been gentle and considerate, so how could she ignore him?
So as soon as Li Jing'er came out, Lu Zhicheng put on a sour face.
Lu Ma was puzzled: "Zhicheng, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
How come Zhicheng said he wanted to invest and make a lot of money one second and then became unhappy the next second?
Lu Zhicheng frowned. He was angry with Li Jing'er, not with Lu's mother. He held it in for a long time and said, "Mom, it's none of your business."
Li Jing'er understood it at a glance, but she was too hungry, so she didn't have time to coax Lu Zhicheng for the time being.
Lu Zhicheng's face flushed red as he looked at Li Jing'er with resentment, but as a male chauvinist, it was impossible for him to bow his head first.
Li Jing'er took a few mouthfuls of rice when the phone rang.
She took a look and found that it was her father whom she had not contacted for a long time.
"Zhicheng, Mom, excuse me, I have to go outside to answer a phone call."
Mother Lu took a look and said nothing. She waited until Li Jing'er left before she leaned close to the door and eavesdropped.
Lu Zhicheng looked grim: "Mom, what are you doing?"
Lu Ma hissed at him.
"What do you know? This little bitch has been dressing up all the time to go out. She must be going to meet a man. You, as a man, don't understand these things. I can tell at a glance."
Lu Zhicheng frowned, thinking that Lu's mother was being suspicious. Li Jing'er had always been gentle and attentive to him and obeyed his every word. How could she be looking for another man outside?
Lu Zhicheng retorted: “Mom, don’t talk nonsense, Jing’er is not that kind of person.”
But at this time, Lu Ma was already listening carefully to the noise outside and had no time to pay attention to him.
Li Jing'er didn't know that Lu Ma had already noticed the clues, and was still outside on the phone: "Hey, Dad, what's going on?"
If she knew, she would be glad that the call was from her family, not a man.
Dad Li: "Jing'er, how's your work going lately?"
Li Jing'er was suddenly asked this question. Thinking of her dismissal, she felt a little guilty: "Dad, why are you asking this suddenly? There's nothing wrong with my work. By the way, you haven't been online often recently. Let me remind you, there are a lot of scammers online. Don't believe them. Avoid going online if you don't have anything to do."
She thought of the reports on the Internet. She didn't want to be known as a mistress. She was just pursuing love.
Dad Li: "I know, I saw a girl who looks a lot like you online before."
Li Jing'er instantly became nervous: "What? Dad, don't believe it, it's all a lie."
Dad Li said in a relaxed tone: "I know it's all a lie. The neighbor next door even believed it. Don't worry, we're not that stupid."
Li Jing'er breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Father Li: "Jing'er, that..."
Dad Li's tone was hesitant. Li Jing'er was curious and felt that the phone was snatched away by someone. The next second, it was Mom Li's voice.
Mother Li said bluntly, "Jing'er, your brother has been ill and undergoing surgery for some time now, so we don't have the money to support you. Since you have a job now, you can earn money on your own. Remember to send 1,000 yuan every month. Your brother's illness costs a lot of money."
Li Jing'er was dumbfounded. "Why did my brother suddenly get sick? What's wrong? Why didn't you tell me?"
Mother Li sighed, "Didn't I tell you? I thought my savings were enough, but I didn't expect I'd still have to rely on you. You should also think of a way to raise the money."
A boy's crying sounded from the other end, and Li's mom and dad hung up the phone in a hurry.
Li Jing'er was stunned for a long time, then sent 5,000 to the other party. She looked at the balance and found only 2,000 was left.
At this time, the other party sent another message, which was a pile of bills, adding up to 100,000.
Li Jing'er murmured, "How could I suddenly get sick? I'm out of money and have been living very hard these past few days. What should I do next?"
Li Jing'er was dumbfounded. She had been hesitant about whether to take the job given by Manager Gao, but now she had to accept it. And Qi Dabin, although he threatened her and asked her to do those disgusting things, she couldn't just break up with him and run away. Otherwise, her brother would have no money to treat his illness, and her parents would really ignore her.
Li Jing'er suddenly felt her head go haywire. She opened the door and saw Lu Ma rushing to the table, pretending to wipe it. When she saw Li Jing'er, she quickly turned her head and asked with a smile.
"Jing'er, what were you talking on the phone about just now? What took so long?"
Li Jing'er glanced at the smiling Lu Ma, then at Lu Zhicheng who had his back to her. After thinking for a moment, she approached Lu Zhicheng and took his arm. "Zhicheng, I want to discuss something with you..."
