Chapter 23 Don't you feel proud?



Jiang Li only found out after playing a game with Lu Jiming...

What does it mean to be both bad at the game and love to play?

They have no skill but still want to show off.

All the heads on their side were given by Lu Jiming.

That's a bit outrageous.

"I have a question for you," Jiang Li asked seriously. "With your gaming skills, which could get you insulted about your family at any moment, how have you managed to keep playing and still be passionate about it?"

Lu Jiming replied to Jiang Li in a very serious tone, "Is it a spirit of not giving up, a mentality of going against the current? The worse things go, the more I want to make a name for myself and show them!"

Jiang Li patted Lu Jiming's shoulder with a serious expression, "You must have had a tough time, right? Actually, I wanted to tell you that nothing in this world is difficult, as long as..."

"What do you want?" Lu Jiming's eyes suddenly lit up.

Once he obtains the secret, will he be able to soar to great heights and become a powerful figure like Jiang Li?

"As long as you're willing to give up," Jiang Li added.

Lu Jiming: "..."

He doesn't want to!

Jiang Li couldn't help but shake her head. "Wasting time in areas you're not good at is a dead end!"

"So, what do you think is my area of ​​expertise?" Lu Jiming asked Jiang Li sincerely after a moment of silence.

Jiang Li pursed her lips, stumped by Lu Jiming's question.

Lu Jiming: "???"

What does this mean?

This means...

Does he not even have anything he's good at?

Jiang Li silently pulled Lu Jiming into another game, letting him enjoy the bliss of winning without lifting a finger.

If he doesn't play games with her, given Lu Jiming's luck in games, he'll never win.

Lu Jiming had never won before, so he was extremely excited to have won a few times by simply following along.

I just felt...

This game doesn't seem so difficult anymore.

"Hey boss, can you take me with you when you play games from now on?" Lu Jiming had taken Jiang Li's previous words to heart, so...

He made a rather immature suggestion.

“I don’t play this game much, I just use it to kill time at times like this.” Jiang Li politely declined Lu Jiming’s offer. “In this time, you might as well write, read a book, or exercise. Fighting in the game is not as good as running around in real life.”

Lu Jiming: "..."

The thought of running to school with Jiang Li tomorrow made Lu Jiming put on a mask of pain.

never mind……

Let's decide what game to play first, and then see if we can survive.

After playing three games, Lu Shiyan's noodles were ready.

Looking at the noodles laid out on the table, Jiang Li was filled with disbelief.

She initially thought Lu Shiyan was simply cooking noodles, but what was on the table...

This is already the deluxe, top-of-the-line version.

The noodles are made with a tomato and beef brisket soup base, and large chunks of beef are added.

There were also abalone, shrimp, and fried eggs on the side...

In short...

It looks so appetizing, it makes my mouth water.

Lu Shiyan pushed the bowl of noodles with peeled shrimp in front of Jiang Li, "Eat quickly."

One bite of noodles...

Jiang Li's eyes lit up again.

This is some kind of divine delicacy.

Ah Yan's cooking skills are amazing!

Looking at his bowl of noodles, Lu Jiming said sourly, "I also want someone to peel shrimp for me."

Lu Shiyan gave him a cold look. "You don't have to eat."

Lu Jiming immediately protected his bowl, then said to Jiang Li, "Boss, let me tell you, my uncle is an excellent cook, but he rarely cooks. Apart from me living with him, I've been lucky enough to taste his cooking a few times. No one else has had that privilege."

"Then I'm really lucky." Jiang Li took another sip of soup with satisfaction.

It's so delicious!

“If Jiang Jiang likes it, I’ll cook it for you often in the future,” Lu Shiyan immediately stated.

The way to a person's heart is through their stomach.

This applies to everyone.

Fearing that Jiang Li would refuse, Lu Shiyan continued, "Anyway, we don't live far apart. If I cook something, you can come over and eat, right?"

Jiang Li struggled for a moment, but in the end she succumbed to her desire for food.

She looked at Lu Shiyan with a serious expression, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Ayan."

After quickly finishing her noodles, Jiang Li packed up her things and prepared to go home.

Lu Shiyan picked up the items and walked out with Jiang Li.

"I can carry it myself, you don't need to see me off, I can go back by myself."

"It's not right for a young girl like you to carry all this stuff back." Lu Shiyan naturally wouldn't let Jiang Li carry the things herself. "Besides, it's late at night, and it's not safe for a young girl like you to be walking outside. I'll take you home."

Jiang Li: "..."

Not to mention that she is strong enough to protect herself, this is a high-end villa area, so the unsafe factors have been basically eliminated.

However, Lu Shiyan meant well, so Jiang Li did not refuse.

After escorting Jiang Li to the entrance of the Jiang family villa, Lu Shiyan watched her enter the house before turning to leave.

"You're back?" As soon as Jiang Li entered the house, she heard a voice filled with anger.

Jiang Li turned her head and looked...

Oh, it's her biological father, whom she's never met.

Jiang Chi.

"Mr. Jiang." Jiang Li called out to Jiang Chi in a very distant manner.

A flash of anger crossed Jiang Chi's eyes. He slammed his hand on the table. "Who brought you back just now? Who was that man?"

"A friend."

"Jiang Li! I'm your father, and this is how you treat me?" Jiang Chi grew increasingly angry, and thinking of Jiang Xueqi's obedient nature, he became even more furious. "Xueqi even spoke up for you, and this is how you behave? Ha! I knew you couldn't be any good growing up like this! You really are a worthless piece of trash!"

Jiang Li listened quietly to Jiang Chi's dissatisfaction with her, and only spoke up when he stopped.

"Yes, I'm not good enough to compare with Jiang Xueqi, but no matter how good Jiang Xueqi is, she's not your biological daughter. You lost your own daughter, spent a lot of effort raising someone else's daughter, and now you're trampling your own daughter underfoot. Don't you feel proud?"

Jiang Chi's anger, which had subsided somewhat, was instantly reignited.

Although they say they don't care, Jiang Xueqi is still the daughter of the Jiang family.

But faced with reality, they still felt somewhat uneasy.

As outstanding as her daughter may be, she's not her own flesh and blood, so she's still a bit lacking.

Unlike Su Ruan, Jiang Chi is a businessman who values ​​profit more.

What good is an outstanding adopted daughter?

In the eyes of others, they are ultimately outsiders.

Jiang Li's words were like jabbing salt into his wounds.

"Jiang Li! Now that you've entered the Jiang family, you must abide by the Jiang family rules!" Jiang Chi's face turned ashen with anger. "You'd better cut ties with those shady characters outside right now!"

Jiang Li: "..."

Why don't you listen to what you're actually saying?

If Ayan is a scoundrel, then are you even human?
