Jian Zhizhen walked over to her and pulled up a chair to sit down.
"Sister Yi, did you see the big gossip online tonight?"
Zhong Yi nodded and sighed, "About Xu Qiuyuan's affair, huh? Sigh, another poor soul hurt by a jerk."
Jian Zhizhen held her hand and pleaded, "Sister Yi, can you help her and get Sister Qiuyuan signed to our company?"
Zhong Yi fell silent.
She has always been most disgusted by this kind of capitalist bullying of helpless female artists.
Just like how I stood up for Jian Zhizhen back then, it was purely out of a sense of righteousness that compelled me to do so.
But unfortunately, all that was needed back then was to offend people and explain the truth.
Xu Qiuyuan's case also involves a large amount of compensation.
But looking at Jian Zhizhen's expectant gaze, she couldn't bear to refuse.
She changed the subject, asking, "You came here alone so late?"
Jian Zhizhen honestly replied, "You sent me here for nothing."
Where are the others?
"Downstairs."
Zhong Yi stood up and walked to the glass window to look down.
Sure enough, Qin Yubai was seen standing lazily by the car, waiting for Jian Zhizhen.
Needless to say.
They were living together.
Otherwise, why would I have accompanied her in the cold, dark early morning?
Jian Zhizhen followed her to the window, grabbed her arm, and continued to plead, "Sister Yi, the main problem is that I don't have any female friends on that dating reality show, only Sister Qiuyuan. Can you help her out?"
Zhong Yi sighed softly, her gaze still fixed on Qin Yubai downstairs: "Don't you have your Xiaobai? Why do you still care about the female guest?"
"..." Jian Zhizhen was a little embarrassed, but only for a moment, and quickly continued to plead without changing his expression, "Sister Yi, please, I will be very lonely if I replace her."
Zhong Yi looked away and pulled Jian Zhizhen back to her workstation.
The two sat down and continued their conversation.
Zhong Yi looked troubled: "Honey, I know she's in a terrible situation, and I really want to help her. The key issue now isn't whether we're willing to sign, but that our small company, Jinju, doesn't have the money to pay Xu Qiuyuan compensation and breach of contract fees."
When Jian Zhizhen heard that it was about money, he breathed a sigh of relief.
She took a card out of her pocket, put it on the table, and pushed it to Zhong Yi: "The password is my birthday. You can use my money to sign first, just consider it a debt the company owes me. You can pay me back when you make money, or forget about it if you don't."
Zhong Yi knew that Jian Zhizhen had some money now.
Because the revenue sharing from the previous season of "Love Across Worlds" has been received, and the money for making the movie has also been transferred to the company.
She just sent Jian Zhizhen's salary and nearly a million dollars today.
She smiled helplessly: "Honey, this isn't something that can be settled with a million dollars."
Jian Zhizhen stared at her card, hesitated for a moment, and said uncertainly, "I haven't checked the balance in the card for a long time, but I vaguely remember that there should be ten million."
"...Huh?" Zhong Yi slowly opened her eyes wide, wondering if she had misheard. "How much?"
"..." Jian Zhizhen really didn't remember.
The money stored in this card was given to her by her parents.
But she used to earn a lot of money selling patents and making videos, and she spent it all on herself.
The money my parents give me is usually just left there, I don't even look at it.
"Actually, I'm not too sure either. Isn't there an ATM on this floor? Let's go check it out."
With that, Jian Zhizhen pulled Zhong Yi outside.
I found the machine in the hallway, plugged it in, and checked my balance.
Zhong Yi felt a chill run down her spine as she stared at the line of numbers.
One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, million, father...
Jian Zhizhen simply breathed a slight sigh of relief: "There are actually 30 million, then it seems that it should be enough to save Sister Qiuyuan."
She took out the card and handed it to Zhong Yi: "Sister Yi, hurry up and go save them."
Zhong Yi's fingers trembled as she carefully held the card, looking nervously at Jian Zhizhen: "Where...where did your money come from?"
Jian Zhizhen casually replied, "It's pocket money given to me by my parents."
Zhong Yi swallowed hard: "...When you signed the contract with me two years ago, didn't you say your parents were vegetable growers?"
Jian Zhizhen glanced at her, her face calm: "My dad is a geologist, and my mom is an agricultural scientist. They studied vegetable cultivation together."
When the two of them went out to attend agricultural summits, they introduced themselves by saying that they grew vegetables for the country.
Chien Chih-chen had heard this since she was a child, so she just said it that way.
Zhong Yi's teeth chattered and her voice trembled: "Your family is so rich, why do you live in the village?"
Jian Zhizhen nodded: "Behind that village, the surrounding mountains, spanning thousands of acres, are my parents' research base. To make it easier for them to conduct their research while taking care of me, they brought me to live in the village. Half of the villagers are my parents' students, and also my senior classmates; they all take good care of me."
“You said on the show before that they are in heaven…” Zhong Yi hesitated to say it, fearing it might be some kind of script about parents sacrificing themselves for the country’s research on growing vegetables.
Jian Zhizhen calmly replied, "That's because they're currently researching vegetable cultivation on the moon and haven't been back to Earth for several years. To put it simply, isn't the moon in the sky?"
"..." Zhong Yi was completely speechless.
In just three minutes, she experienced more shock than she had ever felt in her entire life.
She really couldn't tell from her usual appearance that Jian Zhizhen was such a pampered young lady.
After all, Jian Zhizhen can change light bulbs, fix water pipes, and repair electrical appliances.
That's not all, she even gets a cash reward for ordering takeout!
She is clearly a hardworking, thrifty young woman.
How did she become a rich heiress?!
She pinched her face hard; it hurt.
Otherwise, I'd really worry that I fell asleep because I was working too late tonight and had a dream.
