Two hours later, the first batch of servants had arrived at their posts.
Accompanying them was a professional private butler.
Lin Li: She just handed all the money over to Awei!
She quickly returned to her bedroom and called Awei to ask if he could help her exchange RMB for HKD. Awei looked confused and asked her what it was for.
"The housekeeper is here, I need to open an account for him and deposit his living expenses! Don't the servants and housekeeper need to be paid wages?"
"Oh! That matter! I've already opened an account for them, and I've deposited six months' worth of salaries and fees into it..."
Lin Li: ...
"Is there still money left to invest in the stock market?"
"There's still a little bit..."
After hearing what Awei said, Lin Li finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
I said 'thank you' to him before hanging up the phone.
Why is it that every time she earns a lot of money, she soon feels short of money again?
He let out a long sigh.
So, we have to keep going with our business!
After finishing up her business in Hong Kong, Lin Li asked Awei to arrange a car to take her across the border back to Shenzhen.
This time, she didn't notify Wang Jianguo to pick her up. After crossing the border, she took a bus and slowly returned to her villa in Shenzhen.
She entrusted Wang Jianguo to find someone to clean the villa regularly.
When she entered the villa, it was still very clean.
After closing the door, a thought immediately transported me back to the courtyard house in Beijing.
They arrived in Beijing at just past 2 p.m., and Lin Laosan and his two children were still at school and had not yet returned home.
Lin Li yawned and went back to her bedroom to take a nap.
Since returning from Paris, she has been working non-stop and hasn't had a proper night's sleep in a long time.
I felt like I had just closed my eyes when I was woken up by the arguing in the yard.
After massaging his temples with his internal energy, he felt the intense headache ease slightly.
Filled with rage, he threw off the covers, got dressed, and went outside.
"Lin Laosan, let me tell you, if you don't go to your mother, I definitely won't talk to you anymore, no matter how much you beg me."
"Jia Jiaojiao, I told you, my mother doesn't live in Beijing. Why won't you believe me?"
"I don't believe you. You've been lying to me lately, you don't want to talk to me anymore, and you say you don't like me anymore... Pshaw, who do you think would believe that?"
Lin Li: ...
Lin Laosan: ...
"I really don't like you anymore. Don't you dislike me either?"
Before Lin Laosan could finish speaking, Jia Jiaojiao's sharp voice interrupted him.
"I knew you were just saying things out of anger to get my attention. Let me tell you, Lin Laosan, no matter what you do to get my attention, I don't like you."
"Fine, you don't like me! Then why did you come all the way to my house?"
"What are you doing? Of course, I'm sending your mom to help my brother Siqi get treatment! What are you pretending to be stupid for?"
Why should I let my mom treat your brother Siqi?
"Because you like me! So you have to do whatever I tell you to do!"
Lin Laosan: "...?"
Lin Li: What a peculiar thought process.
"Jiaojiao, stop arguing. I think Brother Lin wouldn't want to see you angry either, after all, he likes you so much!"
A strong, masculine scent of green tea wafted over, making Lin Li's head ache even more.
"Brother Siqi, don't worry, no matter how much he likes me, I only like you."
Lin Laosan: ...
"Brother Lin, I know Jiaojiao has a bad temper, but she's a simple person and speaks her mind. She didn't mean to upset you, so please don't hold it against her. Don't you like her simplicity too?"
Lin Laosan: ...
"I'll say it again, I don't like Jia Jiaojiao. So please stop..."
Before Lin Laosan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Jia Jiaojiao's smug voice.
"Ha, you don't like me? If you don't like me, why did you give me so many nice clothes, take me to a state-run restaurant, and even invite me to a movie? Lin Laosan, you're such a hypocrite..."
"Yes, I admit I used to like you, but not anymore..."
"Brother Lin, Jiaojiao is beautiful and lovely, and I know many people like her. I don't mind any of that. It's just that I really need to trouble your mother this time. My health is a minor matter; the main problem is that my father's illness can't be delayed any longer!"
"Brother Siqi, how can your health be a trivial matter?"
"Jiaojiao, stop being stubborn, be good! Listen to me!"
"Lin Laosan, I order you to go and call your mother out right now to help Siqi get medical treatment, do you hear me?"
When Lin Laosan heard her blunt words, his eyes widened, his face turned red, the veins on his forehead bulged, and his fists clenched tightly.
"Get out of here! How dare you sneak up on me and follow me home? And you even dare to order my mother to treat your illnesses?"
Jia Jiaojiao stared at the enraged Lin Laosan, her mouth slightly agape, her eyes wide with shock.
"How dare you yell at me?"
Lin Laosan: ...
"So what if he yelled at you? Shouldn't you be yelled at? What kind of girl is this, running into a man's house and shouting like that without any manners?"
The three of them immediately turned to look at Lin Li, who was speaking.
"Mom, you're back?"
Lin Laosan's face, which was stiff with anger, twitched slightly, but joy still shone through his eyes.
"Is she your mother?"
Jia Jiaojiao pointed at Lin Li, her face full of astonishment, and asked repeatedly.
"Mom, when did you get back?"
Lin Laosan walked quickly to Lin Li and asked apologetically.
"Were we too loud and disturbed you?"
"It was indeed very loud and it disturbed me, but it wasn't your fault, so don't blame yourself."
Lin Li patted his hand and gently comforted him.
"Lin Laosan, you just said your mother isn't in Beijing, so who is she? Are you lying to me again?"
Lin Li felt a surge of irritation upon hearing Jia Jiaojiao's shrill voice.
He strode up to her and slapped her twice across the face.
Silence fell instantly!
Jia Jiaojiao rubbed her burning cheeks in a daze, then turned her head and stared at her with wide eyes.
"You hit me?"
Lin Li looked at her coldly, raising an eyebrow slightly.
"No one has ever dared to hit me since I was a child?"
Jia Jiaojiao screamed and lunged forward with her ten fingers forming claws.
Lin Li tilted her head slightly, flicked her wrist back, and slapped her so hard that she staggered backward.
Lin Laosan: ...
The elderly people watching outside the gate: ...
"Jiaojiao, are you alright?"
Siqi quickly took a few steps, hugged Jia Jiaojiao, lifted her face, looked at the finger marks on her face, and asked with a pained expression.
"Brother Siqi, she hit me!"
Jia Jiaojiao stomped her feet rapidly, pointed her finger at Lin Li's face, and said angrily.
"How could you hit Jiaojiao? Do you even know who she is?"
Siqi gently stroked Jia Jiaojiao's swollen cheek with his fingertips, then suddenly looked up, his eyes wide open, and asked sternly.
"who is she?"
"She is the only daughter of Jia Dashan, the richest man in Beijing, and the apple of his eye. How dare you hit her!"
