Chapter 61: Scared, Very Scared, Scared to Death

The moment the phone was connected

Liang Yin's voice came directly from the other side, crying and shouting: "You finally answered the phone. God must have heard my prayers."

Yi Jiu held her cell phone leisurely and mouthed words to He Jingxin.

——Let me talk to you about her. It's really a disappointment that she calls me at this time.

He Jingxin glanced at the time, it was exactly nine o'clock.

It was clearly Jiujiu who asked her to call at nine o'clock, and now she is still criticizing her. Is Liang Yin a part of their play?

Yi Jiu encouraged her: "Vice President Liang, God will give great responsibilities to people of this caliber. You are the girl chosen by God. You can rely on yourself for everything."

When Liang Yin heard Yi Jiu's voice, she rolled her eyes several times. This Yi Jiu was really getting more and more unscrupulous. He even knew how to pua her and draw big pie for her.

Jing Xin actually ignored her and won her favor.

She also becomes restless when she is favored by others.

"I am the Chosen One, what are you?"

"I am your grandmother. You just said it yourself. Come here, my granddaughter, call me grandma." Yi Jiu crossed his legs with a proud look on his face. If he had a tail, he could fly up to the sky.

"...Jing Xin, can't you control her? She is being mean."

He Jingxin sat next to Yi Jiu and held out her hand for Yi Jiu to return the phone to her. Yi Jiu stuck out her tongue and moved the phone from her right hand to her left hand.

She stood up, relying on the fact that she was half a head taller than He Jingxin, with a smug look on her face, as if to say, I can't get it!

He Jingxin thought about how he had tickled her just now, and reached out to tickle her armpits. Yi Jiu's smug look disappeared, as she was quite afraid of tickling. He Jingxin used her ultimate move, and she snorted coldly and handed her the phone.

He Jingxin took the phone, and Yi Jiu took the opportunity to press her nose bridge with his fingers, and then scratched it again, as a punishment for being tickled by her when he pretended to sleep just now.

That's fair, one per person.

He Jingxin looked at Yi Jiu's smile again. That face was naturally magical, attracting and tempting her. Seeing her face, all her worries were forgotten.

"Go answer the phone. Don't keep my granddaughter waiting."

He Jingxin nodded and walked to the balcony. "What's the matter?"

Liang Yin turned on the video call. The boss whom he hadn't seen for a month appeared. He had long dark brown hair, a rosy face, and was full of energy. His aura was cool but also gentle and mature.

She had said at the beginning that Yi Jiu was a good person and considerate.

Someone is still not satisfied, and deserves to be buried in the crematorium for chasing his wife.

"Jingxin, how does the saying go? Spring nights are short and the sun rises high. From now on, the king will not attend court early." Liang Yan was much more relaxed when talking to He Jingxin. He wanted to get back the loss he suffered from Yi Jiu from He Jingxin. "Do you feel that the past three years have been wasted?"

"If you have something to say, please say it quickly. I still have to go out with Jiujiu."

Hearing that He Jingxin was about to go out, Liang Yin put away her smiling face. He Jingxin found that Liang Yin was standing in front of a glass window, and she could directly see the parking lot behind her.

There were several black cars in the parking lot, with special signs on them. Several people in work clothes opened the car doors and waved to the Minister of Finance. He Jingxin looked serious, "Tax Bureau? What's going on?"

Liang Yun recounted everything that had happened. The staff from the Tax Bureau said they would come over early in the morning, saying that someone had reported that the Aoki Group had been evading taxes and they wanted to check last year's accounts directly.

So the Minister of Finance took it to check the accounts.

The tax evasion incident actually happened to Aoki Group last year. Fortunately, He Jingxin was very quick-witted and Director Zhang settled the matter before the end of the year, and finally sent him to develop a resort.

The matter that was originally resolved internally seemed to have been reported to the tax bureau.

It goes without saying that there is a traitor in the Aoki Group.

"It's not over yet. The marketing department just received a notice from the bank urging us to pay back the loan. It was originally agreed that the balance of other projects would be received in a month. They asked us to pay off the loan within a week." Liang Yin turned the video to himself, pinched his face, and complained: "I am destined to work hard. Who can help me get some money back? The life of an ox or a horse is also a life."

He Jingxin knew that Liang Yun was busy with the group's affairs, so he nodded and replied with understanding: "I will come back as soon as possible and give you a long vacation with pay."

He Jingxin was coming back, and Liang Yin's heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally settled down.

Now that the backbone is back, everything will be easy.

Suddenly, Liang Yin's camera zoomed in and checked He Jingxin's neck. He Jingxin then remembered the mark left by Yi Jiu kissing her neck for a long time last night, and she was about to cover it.

Liang Yin was staring behind He Jingxin again. Yi Jiu was sitting on the sofa without any movement to look back.

"What are you looking at?"

"Did Yi Jiu hit you? Did she pinch you?" Liang Yin's voice came through the phone. He Jingxin quickly covered the phone with her hands, fearing that Yi Jiu would hear it. She excused Yi Jiu, "No."

In Liang Yan's eyes, nothing is something!

This is a clear case of a love affair.

They both play masochism and sadism. I didn't expect Jing Xin to be like this, she likes to be abused and stimulated.

Liang Yun sighed, "It's a good thing that Jing Xin got Yi Jiu back, but you shouldn't be obsessed with Ai Nao. You don't have brothers and sisters to back you up. Once you grow up, I will definitely come and help you strangle this thing to death."

It's a cause for celebration to see your friend and boss get his love back, but it would be a problem if Jing Xin became a love-brained person.

Everyone is protective of their own children and is selfish.

Liang Yan has always favored He Jingxin. He Jingxin has used all her energy to accompany Yi Jiu to grow up, betting on Yi Jiu's sincerity. What if Yi Jiu doesn't appreciate it and continues to bully Jingxin?

"Don't worry, she and I both know our limits."

"You have nothing..." Liang Yin couldn't help but blurt out a curse word, but He Jingxin ruthlessly cut off the call before she could finish her words. Facing the phone and returning to the communication interface, she complained again in her heart.

If you have any sense, you should come back immediately.

Liang Yun recalled what had happened: the tax bureau was investigating tax evasion and the bank was urging loan repayments.

Aoki Group is a major taxpayer to the Tax Bureau. The leaders of the Tax Bureau are always polite, unlike this time when there was so much fuss and silence. As for these banks, they were always very respectful when they called in the past, but this time, they directly issued an ultimatum.

Of course, who has the power to instruct the IRS and the banks?

She didn't need to guess to know that it must be Xiao's mental illness that was acting up again! If he didn't torture others, Xiao would feel uncomfortable all over!

He won't stop until he forces others to lose their families!

He Jingxin held the phone tightly and sighed. The traitor in the Aoki Group had climbed up the big tree of the Xiao family.

Who else could be the traitor? It was her evil stepfather who hooked up with Yi Jiu's mother, Xiao Shaoyue. Xiao Shaoyue was very ruthless and wanted to kill herself the moment she offended her.

The red sun of late winter shines on the evergreen trees in the yard, and their complex roots penetrate the entire soil, just like the power of the Xiao family.

"Jiujiu." He Jingxin walked back to the living room, and Yi Jiu was swiping on his iPad. He Jingxin came closer to take a look.

It turned out that she was looking at the high-speed rail tickets, so she heard it.

"I won't leave. I promised I would stay with you." He Jingxin reached out and took the iPad from her hand. Yi Jiu has now become the most beloved person in He Jingxin's heart. She only wants to stay with Jiujiu.

These words made Yi Jiu's heart pound.

She held He Jingxin in her arms, resting her chin on her shoulder, "I will support my girlfriend's work. Don't worry, I will definitely wait for you here."

He Jingxin said with concern: "Then you have to video call me every night."

Yi Jiu rolled his eyes inwardly, met her eyes, and said calmly: "I just can't let you rest assured."

He Jingxin nodded seriously and said sincerely, "It's not me who's worried, it's you who's worried about everyone. Otherwise, how could you have the access control punch card thing?"

......

When the two of them arrived at the underground parking lot of a high-end shopping mall, He Jingxin saw the screen full of fragrance endorsements, and she looked at the brand carefully.

This is an international affordable luxury brand.

The only designated spokesperson for the Asia-Pacific region, the on-screen actress is Luo Mingshu, who has been very popular in the past two years.

He Jingxin tugged at Yi Jiu's sleeve, and Yi Jiu looked in the direction she pointed. He Jingxin turned around and asked in confusion, "That poster doesn't look good?"

"Isn't that endorsement yours? Why was it replaced by actress Luo Mingshu?" He Jingxin clearly remembered that this endorsement was from Yi Jiu.

Yi Jiu was extremely excited when she learned that she had won the endorsement. She talked to herself for a long time, saying that this was her favorite brand since she was a child.

The person concerned looked puzzled. She also remembered how much she liked it and had talked to He Jingxin about it. She almost forgot about it herself and smiled awkwardly, "Yes, I changed the endorsement temporarily."

My favorite brand was snatched away as an endorsement.

She acted as if nothing had happened, why didn't anyone tell her at that time?

She asked, "Is Luo Mingshu's backstage support strong?"

Did Luo Mingshu seize your endorsement by force?

"No, it's none of her business." Yi Jiu kindly reminded her, "He Jingxin, have you forgotten that you are allergic to gardenias?"

This brand was once her favorite.

At that time, she was thinking about endorsing the product, so she would have to have several sets of this at home. However, she saw clearly that she was endorsing the latest Gardenia series, and He Jingxin happened to be allergic to it.

Thinking about the consequences of her allergy, red rashes all over her body and a high fever, she felt very distressed. She accidentally discovered that Luo Mingshu was in a difficult situation at the time, so she gave the endorsement to her.

Of course, Luo Mingshu eventually became a movie queen.

That was also because of her own strength. Yi Jiu was in the entertainment industry, and she was kind-hearted and helped others, and would not ask for 100% return from others. After Luo Mingshu became famous, she also rushed to give her things, but she finally declined.

He Jingxin uttered an "oh" and felt even happier for her. He looked at Yi Jiu with more affection, "Do you regret it?"

Yi Jiu looked up at her and smiled. It was no big deal. "It's just an endorsement. Why do you take it so seriously? As long as it is popular with everyone, it's fine. It doesn't matter who endorses it. Luo Mingshu took beautiful photos."

In the previous sentence, He Jingxin was doubly moved by Yi Jiu.

The latter sentence, she and Luo Mingshu had a good relationship, and she couldn't help but feel secretly unhappy.

Just an endorsement.

If she could easily let go of something she once loved the most, then would she let go of herself, who she once loved the most, at some point?

Yi Jiu obviously noticed that He Jingxin looked unhappy. She glanced at someone who was reading Luo Mingshu's Baidu Encyclopedia and then reading her interviews and Weibo. She immediately knew that He Jingxin was jealous, whether she was jealous of the endorsement, the person, or both.

She raised her pretty eyebrows, looked at the face pretending to be cold, and coaxed: "No one is prettier than my girlfriend, and no one is more gentle and loving than my girlfriend. On one side is my favorite person, and on the other side is my favorite brand. Of course I choose you."

After hearing Yi Jiu's flattery, her jealous heart was slightly satisfied. The complicated emotions slowly faded away like the tide. She held Yi Jiu's hand and said softly: "In the future, you are not allowed to give the endorsement to others. Even if you want to give it to others, you have to discuss it with me, understand?"

"This is the speech of the overbearing president. If he doesn't allow it, forget it." Yi Jiu tutted his lips and twitched his eyebrows. "Then I will do it!"

"I'll give you a better one. You can be your money-spending boy and earn your good reputation."

“Buzz buzz buzz.”

He Jingxin put the phone to his ear and said, "Okay, I'll come get it right away."

He Jingxin put down his phone and said, "Jiujiu, I'm going to get a package. Please wait for me at Starbucks."

"What express?"

He Jingxin was a little embarrassed, but told the truth: "Well... it's just a GPS. Do you mind putting it on you? There is no eavesdropping device, just positioning... positioning, which is very secretive. No, you won't suddenly lose contact, and I won't be able to find you... and I won't..."

"Are you afraid of the Xiao family, or they might harm me?" Yi Jiumin saw through He Jingxin's thoughts. "Are you afraid of losing me?"

He Jingxin nodded vigorously, holding Yi Jiu's hand tightly, and confirmed the answer, "I'm scared, very scared! I'm scared to death. I'm with you every minute and every second, and I want to control everything about you. Are you afraid of me like this?"
