Jiang Rou was overjoyed to receive the money. She planned to use 20,000 yuan to save Pete and save the rest as her personal savings.
When she was about to leave, Li Damei blocked her way.
"What are you doing? This money is for your dad."
Jiang Rou stopped in her tracks, the smile on her face gradually fading.
"What do you mean by severing ties? She was never your daughter. If I hadn't gone to her, would she have been able to come up with so much money?"
Now that the money is in my hands, there's no way I'm giving it back to you. Do you expect me to just stand by and watch you spend it on other women?
She glanced at the two of them with disdain, then swayed away.
Jiang Jianguo got nothing, and feeling unhappy, he coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Li Damei quickly patted his back to help him catch his breath, thinking viciously to herself:
"You see, this is the daughter you've doted on for so many years. If things continue like this, your house will eventually fall into her hands."
I think you should hurry up and divorce Feng Shuyao and marry me. If you marry me, I promise I'll make our two sons call you Dad.
Jiang Jianguo was heartbroken, and tears streamed down his face.
"After all, she's my wife of many years. I need to tell them about the divorce beforehand, otherwise Shuyao will have no one to take care of her and will end up on the streets."
Li Damei thought to herself, what does it have to do with her being homeless? This small courtyard house is worth more than a thousand yuan. The important thing is to find a way to get her hands on it.
Jiang Rou took the money to the bank, deposited 30,000 yuan, and took the rest to the police station to redeem Pete.
Lin Tao walked out of the police station gate, spread his arms, and took a deep breath.
It's so much freer outside; it's too uncomfortable inside.
Once inside, you realize that the criminals are a diverse bunch, and some death row inmates don't care about their outside influence; they can bully anyone they want.
What he feared most was bending down to pick up the soap.
Back in the dance hall office, A-Yong immediately reported his work to him.
They said the new dance hall is almost finished with renovations, the dancers have been found, and it's just waiting for the right time to open.
The dance halls here reopened and were bustling with people every night.
Lin Tao then remembered to ask Jiang Rou where the money came from.
“I went to find Jiang Ning. She gave it to me on the condition that she would sever ties with her parents.”
Jiang Rou took his arm and answered, her tone ingratiating.
Once people enjoy a life of extravagance and have money, their desires will only grow stronger.
She knew that as long as Pete reopened the cabaret, he would have a steady stream of money coming in.
Lin Tao never expected that Jiang Ning was so ruthless; she managed to sever all ties with her family for just 20,000 yuan.
He grinned crookedly, took the brooch out of the drawer, and handed it to her.
"You handled this matter very well. This is Jiang Ning's; it's yours now."
The brooch was beautiful, and she happily put it away.
At this moment, Jiang Ning and Ji Yang were having dinner at the Huai Mansion next door.
Lin Chen couldn't come with her because of work at the construction site.
Xu Yan finally agreed to help Jiang Ning start a company.
With her help, Jiang Ning found an excellent location and bought it for 100,000 yuan instead of renting it.
It's over 400 square meters, facing the street, and has two floors.
The renovation was handed over to Luo Guangming.
She invited Ji Yang today because of the company registration.
Although the company was registered in Robert's name, all the procedures and subsequent operations were handled by her, his partner.
The final profit is split 30/70.
In other words, Robert was able to take 30% of the profits because of his foreign status.
There was no other way; given the stringent requirements for setting up a trading company, this was the only indirect method available.
She believes that this situation will change in a few years.
When Ji Yang heard that she was collaborating with Robert, he greatly admired her courage and expressed his full support.
“You’ve only been in the capital for a few short years, yet you’ve already made such a big impact. As your friend, I’m truly proud of you.”
Actually, you didn't need to specifically ask me to come; I would have given you the green light all the way. The country is now encouraging entrepreneurship and revitalizing the economy, and pioneers like you are the kind of people the government supports.
But I also want to give you a heads-up: doing business involves both gains and losses, and import/export trade is quite risky. You need to always be vigilant.
Hearing his heartfelt words, Jiang Ning gratefully raised her glass.
"Thank you for taking care of me all this time."
Ji Yang waved his hand and clinked glasses with her: "Don't say that. If it weren't for you, my son wouldn't be alive now. By the way, when I have time, I'll bring my son to the courtyard house so he can play with Tongtong and Jiaojiao."
Jiang Ning took a sip of wine and smiled sweetly:
“Great! Zhuangzhuang should be in kindergarten by now. They’re about the same age, so they can play together.”
As the two were chatting and laughing, Ji Tingting stormed in, grabbed a wine bottle from the table, and poured it all over Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning dodged quickly, but because the bottle opening was small, the wine in her hand spilled all over herself.
Seeing her acting so erratically, Ji Yang stepped forward and grabbed her arm.
Her hand lost its strength, and the liquor bottle fell to the ground, shattering into countless pieces. One of the pieces splashed up and cut her calf.
"Are you crazy? Jiang Ning and I were talking about something!" Ji Yang didn't notice her injury.
Ji Tingting trembled with anger, tears welling in her eyes, and roared at her:
"What kind of bewitching drug did this woman give you that makes you protect her in every way?"
"If Mom knew you two were getting all tangled up, she'd go crazy."
When Ji Yang offered to give Jiang Ning some money as a reward, her mother refused and told him not to continue seeing her.
Over the years, he not only ignored her advice, but also helped and protected her in every way.
Ji Yang was also angered when she used such an offensive word as "pulling and tugging".
“Tingting, you’ve already graduated from high school, you should be able to make your own judgments. Jiang Ning and I are just normal friends, there’s nothing dirty about us like you’re talking about.”
Ji Tingting wouldn't listen to him. She said she was going to go back and tell her mother, and ran off angrily.
It seems Jiang Rou was right; Jiang Ning's methods are indeed remarkable, and her father is completely captivated by her.
After Ji Tingting left, Jiang Ning gave an awkward smile and comforted Ji Yang.
"I didn't think this through today. I should have brought another person with me. Go back and explain it to them properly."
Ji Yang was still angry, and spoke in a flat tone:
"It has nothing to do with you. My wife just likes to cause trouble for me lately."
Ji Tingting's college entrance exam score was extremely low, not high enough for any university, so she asked Ji Yang to use his connections to get her a job in a government agency.
A government job isn't something a high school graduate like her can just get into casually.
She then lost her temper, saying that he was not as good as so-and-so, who was doing things for his own family's benefit.
She also mentioned wanting to switch to a better kindergarten, but even after I told her, she didn't take any action.
In short, I'm dissatisfied with him in every way.
Fortunately, through a classmate, he managed to arrange a job for Tingting.
Sigh, Tingting went back and complained, I wonder what his wife will say to him now.
