Chapter 81 81 Jiang Lili, what do you mean?
Jiang Lili was amused by Ji Yushu's words. She looked up and asked seriously, "Does not agreeing to your outrageous condition mean I've changed? Besides, weren't you the one who changed first?"
"But isn't a thousand yuan too much?" Ji Yushu was still trying to argue. If he gave her a thousand yuan, wouldn't he only have a thousand? Why is this girl so conceited? This isn't a hundred yuan, it's a full thousand yuan!
"You can refuse then. Okay, I should go home." This time, Jiang Lili ignored him. Seeing Lu Jiaze waiting for her in front, she was a little surprised: "You haven't gone home yet?"
"Are you okay?" Lu Jiaze looked her up and down as he spoke, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was okay. Qiu Shaoli had reminded him a few days ago to remember to wait for Jiang Lili every time he returned home. She was afraid that Lin Wenkang would come to find her, but she didn't expect that Ji Yushu would come first.
"It's okay." Jiang Lili shook her head. Although Ji Yushu's current purpose was disgusting, he could no longer influence her. If he was willing to spend a thousand yuan in exchange for a design drawing, she would be very happy. After all, she could not guarantee success.
Lu Jiaze thought about it and couldn't help asking, "Why did he come to see you?"
"I don't know how he found out that I was drawing the design for the toy factory and asked me to help him. Don't worry, I won't suffer any loss if I go against him." Jiang Lili spoke briefly, which meant that she didn't want to talk about it in detail, so she just mentioned it in one sentence.
"Have you told Aunt Jiang?" Lu Jiaze frowned. Ji Yushu really took the practice of living off his wife to the extreme. Does he plan to rely on his wife for the first half of his life and his daughter for the second half?
Jiang Lili didn't answer him directly, but just reminded him, "I'll tell my mom not to tell Grandpa Lu, lest my grandfather find out. He's already blaming himself for this."
Lu Jiaze was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I understand."
As for Jiang Yulan, although Ji Yushu did not continue to look for her, she was not relieved. After all, with his temper, it was impossible for him to give up just like that, so he should have shifted his target. Thinking of this possibility, her face couldn't help but darken.
As soon as Jiang Lili returned home, Jiang Yulan pulled her to a deserted corner and asked in a low voice, "Did Ji Yushu go to school to look for you?"
"He also looked for you?" Jiang Lili guessed it quickly.
Her reaction was the best answer. Jiang Yulan's face was full of anger, and she cursed directly: "This beast."
"Mom, calm down. I want to know where he knew about this rather than this incident." Could it be that the information was leaked from Factory 1?
"I find it strange too. Only family members know about the Tongqu Players shares. How did he know about it? He even knows that those design drawings were drawn by you." Jiang Yulan also frowned.
"Could it be Lin Wenkang?" Jiang Lili guessed casually.
"What's the benefit for him to tell Ji Yushu?" Jiang Yulan frowned. She was not defending him, but she felt that he had no reason to do so.
"What Ji Yushu cares about most now is Ye Qiuju and her daughter, so he will never give up on them even if he knows about this. He will only ask for benefits from us. When Lin Wenkang appears again to help us solve this trouble, you and I may change our minds about him because of this." Jiang Lili analyzed Lin Wenkang's motives for doing this.
"This seems like something he would do. Has his coming to school disturbed your studies?" Jiang Yulan looked at her worriedly.
"No, he can't influence me. Mom, what you have to do now is to pretend that you don't know about this. If you go to find him, you will fulfill his wish." Jiang Lili warned.
"But he keeps coming to see you, which affects you a lot." Jiang Yulan was a little worried.
"Don't worry, Ye Qiuju and Ji Mingyue won't allow him to come to school all the time." He thought Ji Yushu would soon agree to his conditions. One thousand yuan in exchange for one of his waste drawings was a very cost-effective deal.
Because of the thousand yuan, Ji Yushu returned home cursing all the way. Seeing Ji Mingyue eating, he became even more furious: "Tell me, what else can you do all day long besides eating?" She could neither get the first place in the exam to make him proud, nor could she draw pictures to make money for her. She was really inferior to Jiang Lili in every way.
"Dad, it's dinner time now. What else can I do if I don't eat?" Ji Mingyue looked at him with amusement. In the past six months, she finally understood that this guy was probably best at passing the buck. All good things were his, and all bad things must have been caused by other people and had nothing to do with him.
"What's wrong? Why are you so angry?" Ye Qiuju said as she handed him a cup of tea and motioned him to calm down first.
"It's okay, just serve me some rice." Ji Yushu quickly calmed down. Forget it, just give her one thousand. He would still have one thousand in his hand anyway. This would be much easier than making money by setting up a stall. After thinking it through, Ji Yushu even ate an extra bowl of rice. Only Ji Mingyue next to him lowered his head and stared at the rice in his bowl. Could he really want to remarry Jiang Yulan?
After hearing him talk about the miserable situation at the ironworks last night, Ji Mingyue naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to "visit" Ji Wenwu. No matter how much he hated her, he could only lie in bed at this moment, probably because he couldn't stand her smugness. Ji Wenwu chuckled and then told her sarcastically, "If you have the time to laugh at my joke, you might as well keep a close eye on your dad. Grandma is trying to find someone to match him up with his ex-second aunt to remarry. You'll have to get out of here then."
"Impossible." Ji Mingyue retorted without thinking. She saw Chen Guilan's disgust for Jiang Yulan. How could she want them to remarry if she hated the Jiang family so much?
"Why not? The life your second uncle lived before is the same as the life he lives now. You and your mother are troublemakers. The family is in turmoil now. You don't think that grandparents like you and your mother very much, do you?" After Ji Wenwu finished speaking, he glared at her fiercely. If they were not mother and daughter, why would his mother and sister leave?
Although Ji Mingyue tried her best to refute that this was impossible, this matter still sprouted in her mind. Ji Yushu's attitude at this time further confirmed her guess. He was unhappy with herself at this time probably because he compared herself with Jiang Lili, so he blamed herself.
Before leaving for school, Ji Mingyue took the time to talk to Ye Qiuju about this matter, and even reminded her: "Your most important thing now is to bring him back. Don't block the way of the Jiang family mother and daughter. Then everyone will just laugh at us."
"I didn't expect this damn old woman would have this idea. She was the one who held my hand and asked me to have a baby." Ye Qiuju was so angry that her teeth were itching.
"Isn't it normal to say one thing to your face and another behind your back? Didn't you always do this when you were in the countryside? Okay, it's too late to complain about this now. Remember to take good care of Dad." After saying this, Ji Mingyue couldn't help but confirm with her: "Mom, you said before that Dad would become the richest man. Is this true?"
"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I try so hard to give birth to a child for him at my age?" Ye Qiuju gave her a displeased look.
"You make sense." Ji Mingyue thought that maybe the time had not come yet, so she would wait a little longer. After all, she was only in high school and there was still time to wait.
Jiang Lili was certain Ji Yushu would come looking for her, so she started digging through her discarded blueprints. She found a remote-controlled airplane blueprint, but the propellers on it weren't positioned correctly. Even if it were built, it wouldn't fly very high, and the cost was too high, not what the market needed. She wondered if the factory would hold Ji Yushu responsible if they made a failed product with this blueprint.
Just as Jiang Lili expected, Ji Yushu came to see her again at noon the next day. Compared to his previous attitude, he was much more confident this time: "Lili, I got what you asked for yesterday. Can you give Dad some of this thousand? Dad put a lot of thought into getting it for you."
People really do laugh out loud when they are speechless. This was the first time Jiang Lili knew that someone could be so shameless.
"What are you laughing at?" Ji Yushu looked at him with some displeasure.
"It's nothing. I made it very clear yesterday. Besides, I'm not a child anymore. Would you be willing to do something that has no benefits? I'll give you money and pictures at the same time. If you don't want it, forget it." Jiang Lili thought that it would be better to go to the factory to find a lawyer to draw up an agreement, so as to avoid trouble later.
Having his thoughts exposed by Jiang Lili, Ji Yushu felt a little angry and embarrassed: "Is this how your mother taught you to talk to me?"
"What? You can't win the argument so you're going to use your identity as an excuse again? It's just a matter of words. Do you want the blueprints? If not, leave now. If you do, give me a definite answer." Jiang Lili's tone was filled with impatience. This guy really seemed stubborn.
"Okay, I want it. When can you give me the drawings?" Ji Yushu closed his eyes and took a deep breath to swallow all his displeasure.
"Next week, remember to bring the money." After saying this, Jiang Lili left. She planned to go directly to the factory cafeteria to eat and ask the lawyer sister to draw up a contract.
"Okay, see you next week." Ji Yushu thought, this is just the beginning. If he can draw one picture every week, that would be four thousand a month, which is not bad.
Perhaps because he was thinking about this matter in his mind, this week passed quickly. At the appointed time, Ji Yushu touched the one thousand yuan in his pocket. The factory had not given him the money yet. He had found a way to raise this money. Once he successfully got the blueprint, this one thousand yuan would become two thousand yuan. Thinking of this, Ji Yushu was waiting for Jiang Lili's arrival with some joy.
Jiang Lili saw the person standing there from a distance. She said to Lu Jiaze next to her, "You go back first. I should go to the factory later."
After Lu Jiaze left, Jiang Lili walked towards Ji Yushu. She took out the sales contract drafted by her lawyer and handed it to Ji Yushu.
Ji Yushu originally thought she handed over a design drawing, but it turned out to be a contract. Looking at the various clauses on it, his face darkened: "Jiang Lili, what do you mean by this?"
