Chapter 372 Benefits
"Xue'er, do we really need to do this?"
Li Jingming really couldn't make a decision on such a big matter. "Besides, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong are very concerned about their granddaughter. If something happens to Zhong Nianyao, they will definitely not let it go. When they conduct a thorough investigation, I'm afraid-"
Looking at Li Jingming's timid appearance, a trace of disgust flashed in Chu Yixue's eyes, "No, as long as we are careful enough, we will definitely not be discovered. Although Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong love Zhong Nianyao very much, they are not young anymore, and their energy has long been reduced."
"And Zhong Nianyao's uncles and aunts don't care about her at all. Even if Zhong Nianyao really gets into trouble, they will just pretend at most and won't care too much."
This Li Jingming is really a coward. If it wasn't for the purpose of killing someone with a borrowed knife, she really didn't want to continue to flatter such a coward.
Li Jingming was still hesitant. He really didn't want Chu Yixue's identity to be exposed. However, he still didn't dare to get rid of Zhong Nianyao for this matter.
Moreover, to be honest, if Zhong Nianyao was really eliminated, the person who would benefit the most from this matter would definitely be Chu Yixue. So why did he have to do it? He and Chu Yixue were just in a relationship now. Was it necessary for him to do such a thing for Chu Yixue?
Although she couldn't tell what Li Jingming was thinking, but looking at Li Jingming's unpredictable appearance, Chu Yixue knew that it would not be easy to convince Li Jingming.
It seems that you really can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing your child!
A hint of darkness flashed in her eyes, and Chu Yixue spoke directly, "Jingming, let's get married after Zhong Nianyao, this trouble, is completely eliminated! By then, I will definitely try my best to convince my parents to help you occupy an important position in the Li family's company. They feel guilty about me and will definitely help us."
"When the time comes, with my parents' support, you can compete with your other brothers. Even if you don't win the inheritance in the end, you will definitely be able to make a difference in the company."
"Marry?" A glint flashed in Li Jingming's eyes. He looked steadily into Chu Yixue's eyes. "Are you really willing to marry me?"
"Of course!" Chu Yixue's eyes were filled with determination. "Isn't the purpose of us being together to get married in the end? It's just—"
When she said this, Chu Yixue's eyes darkened. "If Zhong Nianyao reveals my identity, then there really will be no possibility between us. So, Jingming, Zhong Nianyao is definitely the biggest obstacle on our road to marriage."
Although he knew that what Chu Yixue said didn't make sense, Li Jingming was completely captivated by Chu Yixue's proposal of marriage.
It must be said that this temptation was truly enormous for him. The second young lady of the Chu family was simply the best candidate he could currently choose. Of course, that was assuming the second young lady was Chu Yixue. The real second young lady of the Chu family might not necessarily be interested in him, the illegitimate son of a wealthy family.
That's right, he was an illegitimate child. Although he hated the word, it couldn't change the fact. As long as he was still an illegitimate child and his biological mother was still Chen Sisi, there would be no wealthy daughter of equal status who would be interested in him.
If Chu Yixue really turned back into Shen Yixue, he would not benefit at all. He and Chu Yixue were now like grasshoppers on the same rope. But——
"Xue'er," Li Jingming looked at Chu Yixue and suddenly said, "If Zhong Nianyao wasn't an obstacle, would you really marry me?"
He couldn't help but feel a little worried. If he really did something like that, but in the end, Chu Yixue didn't admit it, wouldn't he lose both ends? And there was a possibility that something bad would happen. Even if nothing happened, he would still be in fear for the rest of his life.
"Jingming, what are you talking about!" Chu Yixue's face was full of anger, as if she was very unhappy that Li Jingming would think of her like this. "What kind of person am I? Don't you know? Besides, you know exactly who I am, don't you? If I don't admit it at that time, then you can just go to the Chu family and expose me!"
"We are both in the same boat now, how can you doubt me like this!"
"Xue'er, I'm sorry, I'm not doubting you," Li Jingming quickly said to comfort her, "It's just that this matter is so big that I'm worried."
"So what exactly is your decision?" Chu Yixue stamped her feet and urged, "Answer me now, are you going to do it or not? Are you going to marry me or not?"
"Give me some time to think about it!"
Li Jingming gently embraced Chu Yixue in his arms and said, "This matter is too big and too difficult. I need time to think about it."
Chu Yixue snuggled in Li Jingming's arms, a sinister smile on her lips.
She knew Li Jingming, so she knew very well that although Li Jingming had not agreed explicitly, he had probably already started to make moves in his heart.
It was worth it for her to spend so much effort during this period of time to help Li Jingming gain a place in the Li family's business.
Only when Li Jingming knows that her identity as the second daughter of the Chu family has provided him with such great help, will he be willing to take action.
After all, the only thing that can drive people's hearts is interests.
On the other side, Zhong Nianyao didn't know about the little things between Chu Yixue and Li Jingming.
After a whole day, she listened to all the classes carefully and left.
Zhao Xuanlang originally wanted to follow, but when he saw the familiar car at the school gate, he stopped silently.
In front of Lu Yichen, he was really under a lot of pressure.
Even if Lu Yichen did nothing but sit there quietly, he could still feel a strong sense of oppression. He had dined with Lu Yichen once before, and at that time, he was really a little uncomfortable.
Moreover, it was obvious that Lu Yichen came to meet the boss. If a high-wattage light bulb like him followed him, it would be really inconsiderate.
Zhong Nianyao had already gotten in the car. After greeting Uncle Li, who was the driver today, she turned around and looked at Lu Yichen. She tilted her head and smiled coquettishly, "Didn't you say you prepared a special gift for me? Why don't you take it out?"
