Chen Wanting didn't want to stay any longer, so he pulled Ji Ke away.

Ji Ke shook his head, "My sister almost got into trouble just now. Wan Ting, if you are in a hurry, you can go first."

Why would Chen Wanting be so anxious? "Forget it, I'll wait for you."

He glanced at Ji Ling with disdain and turned his head away.

Ji Ling smiled and took the initiative to pull Chu Jingfei up, "Let's not delay everyone any longer, let's go."

Chu Jingfei agreed readily.

Someone almost died, and Liu Zilie was so scared that he became quiet and followed Chen Jingming, walking silently.

In front, Ji Ling said, "It is said that after a person experiences a great disaster, he will always have a new understanding of life. Your previous suggestion is very correct. Since it is so profitable and the opportunity is rare, we must do it."

Chu Jingfei's eyes lit up, "I knew our Xiaoling would be able to get over it. Don't worry, this business is stable and I guarantee you won't lose money."

Ji Ling sighed, "Business is good, but I can't do it. My parents won't agree. My idea is that we have such a good relationship, so I will lend you the money."

"How can this be possible? You should invest instead."

"I took the capital, and the money I earned is yours, not mine. You shouldn't do such a thing, but my parents don't agree. I want to find a compromise. I'll lend you the money. We're friends, so I'll just consider it as helping you."

"Xiaoling, that's not what I meant."

Ji Ling looked at her, "Do you really want me to take the capital and you make the money?"

Chu Jingfei: She gave a dry laugh, "No."

"That's what I mean." Ji Ling had an expression that said, "I know you're not such a shameless person." "You just feel embarrassed to lend me money, right? You're afraid that my parents will have an opinion if they know about it, right?"

Chu Jingfei wanted to say she didn't.

Ji Ling didn't give her a chance to speak. She changed her previous slow and gentle voice and spoke like spitting out beans, pouring out her words, "This is easy. You can write me an IOU."

"Xiaoling."

"I understand, I understand everything." Ji Ling raised her hand to interrupt her and turned back to shout at Liu Zilie, "Liu Zilie, you don't have the courage to be a guarantor for your cousin, do you?"

Liu Zilie was about to speak.

Ji Ling, "Oh, weren't you quite dissatisfied before? You don't dare to come even though I asked you to? Or do you not trust your cousin's business? I think you would be even more afraid if I asked you to pay."

Everyone present could hear that Ji Ling was trying to encourage Liu Zilie.

Liu Zili knew this himself. He sneered, "Don't drag me into your affairs."

Ji Ling looked at Chu Jingfei embarrassedly, "Jingfei, I didn't expect the relationship between you cousins ​​is so bad."

Liu Zili: Damn it! I've never seen such an eye-dropping person in front of others! Ji Ling, "Jing Fei, you said that your cousin doesn't trust you. Is this business not safe? Otherwise, forget it."

Chu Jingfei: She laughed dryly twice, and finally glared at Liu Zilie, "Don't worry, I'll write you an IOU."

Liu Zilie: You idiot, you were provoked like this.

Seeing that they had arrived at the gate of the compound, Ji Ling ran a few steps to the guard room, borrowed a pen and paper to write an IOU. When Chu Jingfei and his group came in puzzled, Ji Ling handed the two IOUs to Chu Jingfei.

"I've written it all. Just sign your names with Liu Zili."

Then, under Ji Ling's encouragement, Chu Jingfei and Liu Zilie signed the IOU in a daze. After everyone separated, Chu Jingfei looked at the 500 yuan in his hand and then at the contents of the IOU, and felt completely confused.

Liu Zilie stared at the IOU and jumped up. "Why does it say here that if you are overdue, you have to pay double the amount?"

"Where?" Chu Jingfei thought her cousin had read it wrong. After seeing the content above, her brows tightened and she snorted, "I was wondering why she suddenly wanted to lend me money again. Is she waiting for me here? Don't worry, I will be able to pay her back in less than half a year."

Ji Ling wanted to see a joke, but she made a wrong decision.

Liu Zili said angrily, "You'd better pay it back, or I'll have to help you pay it back."

After saying this, Liu Zilie left first.

Chu Jingfei pursed his lips and followed slowly.

Thinking back on every detail of today's time with Ji Ling, I always felt that Ji Ling was weird today.

At the Chen family, Chen Wanting was also asking, "Brother, why did you lend money to Ji Ling when she was almost in trouble because of Chu Jingfei? I always feel like something is weird, but I can't put my finger on it."

Chen Jingming changed his shoes and went to the bathroom. "If you can't figure out something that has nothing to do with you, don't think about it."

But he knew in his heart that Ji Ling had been leading Chu Jingfei by the nose today. He had also read the IOU, which showed that the term was half a year. If the money was not repaid on time, double the amount would be required, from five hundred to one thousand.

Through his observations yesterday and today, he found that Ji Ling was not a stupid person. In fact, he just couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while. What was Ji Ling planning?

On the Xu family's side, there were four members of the Ji family, four members of Xu Wangting's family, and the old couple of the Xu family, a total of ten people. The Xu family was as lively as if it were New Year's Day.

As soon as Ji Ling and Ji Ke entered the house, a young girl who looked about their age pulled Ji Ke into the bedroom and closed the door without even looking at Ji Ling.

"Yujia, why didn't you say hello to your sister Xiaoling?" Xu Hongmei shouted towards the bedroom, then turned back and said perfunctorily to Ji Ling, "It's not that your cousin didn't see you, she just had something urgent to tell Xiaoke, don't pick on her."

After saying that, he turned around and went into the kitchen without even looking at Ji Ling.

Ji Ling: She thought of the four words: her daughter resembles her mother.

But the other party's explanation made people feel that Ji Ling was always troublesome and always picking fights.

"Xiaoling, don't be proud even if you are the top scorer in the college entrance examination." The middle-aged man sitting on the sofa had an extraordinary demeanor and spoke in a tone like a leader lecturing an employee, "To become a college student, you must not be arrogant or impatient when encountering things, and you must be cautious and down-to-earth when doing things outside, so that the elders at home can rest assured."

Xu Fang came out of the kitchen, patting the flour on her body, "Brother, don't expect her to make you worry-free. She was still clamoring for a job before the college entrance examination. Who would have thought that she would get the top score in the exam."

These words clearly show disdain for the daughter, but they are also another form of showing off.

After that, Xu Fang scolded Ji Ling, "Do you remember what your uncle said? Your uncle is now a section chief. He has experienced more than you have. You should take his words to heart."

Ji Ling smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely learn from my uncle, to be proud but not impatient, calm but not arrogant."

Father Xu walked out of the study and said, "Well said. You are proud but not impatient with people or things. You are calm and collected but don't take advantage of your talent and think you are great. It's good that you have such a character at your age."

It has been three days since Ji Ling arrived at the Xu family, and she has not spoken to Grandpa Xu at all. Although they live under the same roof and meet each other many times, there is absolutely no communication between them.

Today, in front of everyone, Xu's father showed such great affirmation to Ji Ling that even Ji Ling herself was surprised.

Xu Fang looked at her eldest daughter with a smile on her face.

Since marrying Ji Yong, this is the first time that Xu Fang has been able to stand up so straight in her parents' home.
