Ji Changning v Si Chen (12)
The weather changes suddenly, it's gloomy and stuffy and it makes people feel breathless.
Ji Changning looked at the elegantly dressed lady in front of him and asked, "What's in the document?"
Mother Ji adjusted her hair and asked, "Didn't Si Chen tell you?"
"Answer me."
"bride price."
"Dowry? How did you say that?" Ji Changning suddenly laughed out loud.
Mother Ji frowned, "Ji Changning, your uncle Qin and I came here not only to discuss your marriage, but also to discuss the Si family's business and politics. Do you think it's so easy to get along? If I don't give you some confidence, how can you stay here?"
Ji Changning looked at her coldly, "Do you believe these words? Let's see how much I'm sold for. That's the most important thing."
Mother Ji choked, "I have raised you for so many years, you ungrateful bastard! After all, I am still your mother!"
"I'd rather not have a mom like you!"
"You..." Ji's mother raised her hand but did not hit him.
Ji Changning looked at her coldly, without retreating at all.
Mother Ji withdrew her hand and said, "Ji Changning, no one is unwilling to climb up. I don't know Si Chen's background, but I can only give you one piece of advice. Before he becomes interested in you, strive to gain the greatest benefit for yourself."
Seeing her look ashen, Ji's mother just said, "You take care of yourself."
And left.
Ji Changning seemed to have lost his strength and leaned weakly against the wall behind him.
Si Chen said not long ago that they could try to manage this marriage that was not in the right order.
How could she not be moved?
In fact, they had met a long time ago. He seemed to be more gentlemanly than anyone she had ever met. He knew when to advance and when to retreat, and he had a very good sense of propriety. She chose to seduce him because she didn't believe that there really was such a pure-hearted man in the world, let alone one who held such a high position.
The more she got into it, the more she realized that things were heading in an uncontrollable direction, so she chose other people and got out of it in time.
But……
She closed her eyes in despair, feeling somewhat ashamed of such a transaction.
His body was enveloped by someone, and his cold body was warming up. Ji Changning rested his forehead on the man's broad chest.
“Did you give them a lot of money?”
Si Chen was silent for a moment, "It's not a lot for me, and normally, it would be more."
Ji Changning closed his eyes in his arms, "Normally, there would be a betrothal gift, but I don't have one."
"So I didn't give them more, and the rest is yours."
Ji Changning pursed her lips and said in a crying voice, "It doesn't feel like a betrothal gift, it feels like I'm selling myself to you, Si Chen, even if you don't have to try with me, I'll still marry you."
Si Chen patted her shoulder and said, "When I said I'd try it with you, I meant you and me."
"You just need to feel me, don't think about anything else."
Ji Changning stepped out of his arms and looked at him in confusion.
Si Chen stroked her face, "I know what you care about. Since I have promised you, I can do it. Moreover, we are married, and helping you get rid of these troubles is what I must do. Otherwise, the meaning of my existence can only be on the marriage certificate. Do you understand what I mean?"
Ji Changning pursed his lips, "But..."
"Okay, stop thinking about it." Si Chen pulled her wrist and walked back, "Go in first."
Ji Changning pursed his lips and stopped talking.
"Are you free later?" Si Chen suddenly stopped, turned and looked at her.
Ji Changning turned to look at him, "There shouldn't be anything to do today."
"Will you go on a date with me?"
"Ah." Ji Changning was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the topic to change so quickly.
"Not willing?"
“No… no.”
"That means you are willing."
