It was only then that Jiang Ningxi realized that he was only five years old, not even six.
It seems the little guy eats too well; he's quite chubby.
Without hesitation, she nodded, "Of course! No matter what happens that day, Auntie will come to your birthday party!"
The little guy immediately became happy.
However, he soon seemed to remember something, and his expression turned dejected again.
She stood up and said, "Dad, Aunt, I'm going back to my room."
After looking at the little guy's back, Jiang Ningxi raised her head.
He asked, "What's wrong with this child?"
Wang Hanzhi said coldly, "He misses his mother, but he can't get through on the phone."
【What? Did you go to some tribe in Africa? No signal?】
Or did they go to the Arctic or Antarctic?
Or perhaps you're out of money to top up your phone credit? Why can't I get through?
Although she had never met this Madam Wang, from this moment on, she had absolutely no good feelings towards her!
"It's okay, I'll comfort him later!"
"Please." Wang Hanzhi nodded.
However, just as Jiang Ningxi was removing the needles from his body...
Suddenly, the long-lost system notification sound echoed in her mind.
[Ding—Host, there is an urgent part-time job that needs your attention!]
But I'm busy right now!
[Host, this part-time job only requires two or three hours of your time, but in return, you'll gain ten days of lifespan.]
Jiang Ningxi's eyes lit up.
I checked the system's current display of my remaining life days.
About half a month!
If you add another ten days, it will be almost a month!
[System, what kind of job is this? How can I add so many days at once? That's even more impressive than tutoring! It must be incredibly difficult?]
[You'll find out when you get there, host. The address has already been sent to your phone.]
Jiang Ningxi then quickly put away the needles.
After putting away all the needles, he stood up and said, "Brother Han, I suddenly remembered something very important I need to do. I'll be back tonight!"
Seeing how anxious she was, Wang Hanzhi didn't ask any further questions.
After leaving the Wang family's residence, Jiang Ningxi rushed to the address sent to her phone.
I checked the navigation, and the location is a bit out of the way; it seems to be in the suburbs.
It took us an hour to drive there.
It is a restaurant.
After entering, I found table number six, which was listed in the text message.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the person sitting at the table was a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old.
But she sat down without hesitation.
"Hello, I'm here to apply for a part-time job. Please tell me what the job entails."
The girl, who had been sitting with her head down at the table, raised her head.
When I saw a girl sitting opposite me wearing a black knitted dress, a low ponytail, sunglasses, and exuding a cold and arrogant aura.
Lu Qiqi was dumbfounded.
Is this... someone looking to apply for a part-time job?
In an instant, she completely forgot all the lines she had prepared in her mind.
"Where did you see my part-time job ad?"
Jiang Ningxi smiled faintly, "You don't need to worry about that."
"In short, whatever part-time job you want, I can handle it. Tell me about it."
She slightly raised her chin, revealing her beautiful jawline.
Lu Qiqi pursed her lips. "Could you please take off your sunglasses?"
I feel like I've seen this person before.
Jiang Ningxi raised an eyebrow slightly and took off her sunglasses.
When Lu Qiqi saw that face, she was completely dumbfounded.
Just as she was about to shout, she saw Jiang Ningxi put her index finger to her lips and make a shushing gesture.
She quickly swallowed the words back.
However, the shock on his face did not fade at all.
"You, you're Jiang Ningxi?"
"Is Jiang Ningxi, who's been all over the internet lately, the real heiress of the Jiang family, and also a transgender person?"
Jiang Ningxi: ...Which paparazzi is this? Sue them!
"Nonsense! I'm 100% a woman!"
"Whether you're a man or a woman, this part-time job isn't suitable for you!" Lu Qiqi shook her head desperately.
"You haven't said what you're going to do yet. Tell me when you're done," Jiang Ningxi said, putting her sunglasses back on.
Lu Qiqi looked at her with some difficulty, "Do you know what area is near this restaurant?"
Jiang Ningxi shook her head, "I really didn't notice."
Lu Qiqi gave a bitter smile, "It's the funeral home!"
Jiang Ningxi almost spat out the water in her mouth.
"Ahem, so what?"
Lu Qingqing lowered her eyes to hide her reddened eyes. "My mother passed away yesterday. My father is setting up the mourning hall now. Relatives will be arriving soon."
Jiang Ningxi stared at her carefully, and a guess suddenly came to her mind. "Could it be that your mother's death is unusual, and you want me to help you find out?"
"Then you should hire a private investigator."
Lu Qiqi shook her head. "My mother's death was indeed unusual, but we don't need a private investigator."
"I know who killed her; she was literally driven to her death by my father!"
"Yet today, my dear father brought his mistress to my mother's funeral!"
As she spoke, she trembled with anger, her face filled with pain and hatred.
Jiang Ningxi's expression cleared. "I understand. You want me to teach your dad and that mistress a lesson?"
With tears in her eyes, Lu Qiqi nodded. "My maternal family has no one to stand up for me and my mother. I'm not resigned to this, so I'm looking for someone powerful like this on the forum to help me."
"I never expected it would be you."
"You, you're not short of money, why did you come?"
