Jing Yao noticed the changes in the house as soon as she entered the door.
How should I put it? I just felt that the place was much quieter than before I left.
It must be because grandpa fired all the servants.
"Is the young lady back?"
Aunt Lin, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the noise at the door and ran out.
Jingyao was not surprised at all to see Aunt Lin still with her. Grandpa really did keep her.
Aunt Lin took the bag from Jingyao.
"The old man fired some people today, but something happened and he was very angry."
Hearing that her grandfather was angry, Jingyao paused in changing her shoes.
"Grandpa is angry? What's going on?"
Aunt Lin looked at Jingyao and seemed to be hesitant to speak, but in the end she didn't tell the reason.
"Miss, you should ask the old man. He is in the study."
Jingyao changed her shoes and went upstairs with a clatter.
"Grandpa, I'm coming in."
Jingyao pushed the door open and entered the study. Grandpa Jing, who was sitting behind the desk, looked up at Jingyao.
"I'm back."
"Grandpa, I heard from Aunt Lin that you were angry today?"
Grandpa Jing placed the thing in his hand heavily on the table.
"It's all because of that Xiao Zhang!"
Xiao Zhang is my grandfather's driver. He has been working for many years. He is a quiet but honest person.
"You mean Uncle Zhang? What happened to him?"
"What's wrong? He is the one bribed by Shen Lin!"
Jingyao opened her eyes wide and looked at her grandfather.
"You don't believe it either, right? I didn't believe it either. Today I told the servants in my house that I would fire them, but I would give them compensation. Others took the compensation and left happily, but this Xiao Zhang took the money and wanted to stay. Later, I forcefully asked him to leave, but he said, 'This Jing family will belong to the Shen family sooner or later, and if I can't stay here, I'll find another place to stay!'"
Jing Yao picked up the teacup and handed it to Grandpa. Grandpa took a sip and continued, "Then I saw him leave our house and go directly next door. He hasn't come out yet."
"It's no big deal. He can go wherever he wants. We're moving soon anyway. There's no need for Grandpa to be so angry with them."
Grandpa Jing took a few breaths and then slammed the table. "I'll start clearing out my things tomorrow. I'll find an agent to sell our house. I get so mad when I think about our house being next to someone like that!"
Hearing that her grandfather was going to buy a house reminded Jingyao that when the end of the world comes, many of her properties will either be flooded or occupied. She might as well take advantage of the time when her grandfather is going to sell the house to clear out all of those properties.
In the past, money and gold were both circulating commodities. Although money would depreciate, it still had many uses.
"Grandpa, why don't we take inventory of all our houses and sell everything that needs to be sold."
Jingyao told her grandfather her thoughts.
"I'll consider these."
Grandpa Jing did not agree at that time, after all, the Jing family had a lot of real estate.
Time passed slowly as Jingyao stockpiled supplies every day, and finally the day of moving arrived.
Grandpa had put the house they live in now up for sale a long time ago. Several people came to see the house, and finally it was bought by a buyer for eight million yuan.
The full payment was also Jing Yao's request. If it was paid in installments, who would repay it when the end of the world comes?
Of course, the full amount is the best.
The new owner can move in after the Jing family moves in.
The news of the Jing family's move could not be hidden from the neighbors. Chen Lin had been obsessed with Mingmin for a while. If his parents hadn't called to say that the moving company had arrived next door, he would still be in Mingmin's room and unwilling to get out of bed.
Jing Yao was standing in front of the car directing the moving company to move things. She naturally saw Chen Lin's car when it arrived, but she was too lazy to pay attention.
"Yaoyao, are you really going to move?"
Chen Lin watched the workers coming and going, and then looked at the things they were carrying, and felt a pang of heartache.
I don’t know what medicine Jingyao took wrong. If she hadn’t suddenly returned to China and hadn’t been in a bad mood with me, all these things would have been his.
"Don't you have eyes? Can't you see for yourself?"
Being challenged by Jing Yao, Shen Lin's expression became very ugly for a moment.
"I...I just didn't expect you to really move. I also didn't expect you to dislike me so much that you don't even want to be my neighbor."
After hearing this, Jing Yao opened her eyes and looked at him for a rare moment.
"You're quite self-aware."
Chen Lin: “…”
"Where are you moving to? Can I come visit you?"
Hearing the other party asking about her new home address, Jing Yao replied with a vigilant and cold face: "No!"
"Yaoyao, you...you don't have to treat me like this. Even if we really can't be boyfriend and girlfriend, just being ordinary friends is fine."
What the hell are just ordinary friends!
In my previous life, I believed in your lies and became your boyfriend, but what did I get? My grandfather is gone, my family property is gone, and even my own life is gone!
You only have one chance to be stupid.
"Miss, everything is in the car, we can leave now."
The workers had already seen their employer's daughter being harassed, and they wanted to help but were afraid of offending the powerful, so they could only speed up the moving.
"Okay, let's go."
Jingyao turned around and was about to drive her own car, but her grandfather and Aunt Lin had already left.
Seeing Jing Yao about to leave, Chen Lin reached out and grabbed her arm.
"Get out of here!"
Jing Yao turned around and kicked Chen Lin, who was caught off guard and fell to the ground.
Looking at the footprints on his black suit, Shen Lin's eyes became more sinister.
This is the second time!
"I'll say it again, don't bother me, or I'll make you suffer, and I'll also have to keep your woman in check!"
