The old house of a merchant.
Chi Yanping stood on the second floor, looking at Ji Xiaolian sitting in the living room on the first floor, a flash of disdain in her eyes.
She slowly descended the stairs.
“Madam.” Ji Xiaolian saw her and almost reflexively stood up from the sofa, twisting her clothes with her hands, looking flustered.
Chi Yanping secretly rolled her eyes and sat down on the sofa opposite her.
He picked up his teacup and leisurely looked up at her.
"Speak."
"What's your plan?"
If she hadn't said she had a way to deal with Shang Zeyan and Shen Zhiyi, she wouldn't have let such scum into her home.
What a disgrace to the family!
Chi Yanping caught a glimpse of Ji Xiaolian's slippers out of the corner of her eye and calmly took a sip of tea.
The corners of his mouth, hidden beneath the teacup, were full of contempt.
Ji Xiaolian took a deep breath, her eyes flashing.
"I will find someone to kidnap Shen Zhiyi."
Chi Yanping paused in her tea-drinking.
"Kidnapping?!"
Even with her strong mental fortitude, she was still taken aback.
She looked up.
He took a closer look at Ji Xiaolian.
“That’s right, it’s kidnapping.” Ji Xiaolian nodded. “Whether you ask Shang Zeyan for money or kill him is up to you.”
Chi Yanping gave a light scoff.
Put down the teacup.
“That Shen Zhiyi is the precious daughter of the Shen family.”
She glanced at Ji Xiaolian from head to toe. "You're not part of our circle, so naturally you wouldn't know Old Master Shen's status in S City."
“I wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on his granddaughter.”
"You have the guts?"
Aren't you afraid of dying?
Ji Xiaolian's face turned pale instantly.
here we go again.
That old hag is insulting her again.
She closed her eyes, desperately suppressing the humiliation in her heart.
After a long while, he managed to maintain his fake smile, his lips trembling, and looked up, saying, "I won't do it myself."
"Even if the Shen family discovers something, the only thing they'll find out is the person who kidnapped them."
"Both you and I can pick them clean."
Of course, she also hated Chi Yanping.
But now Bai Fengyu is unreliable, and Shang Zeyan has already married someone else.
She could only try to get money out of Chi Yanping.
"Oh?" Chi Yanping raised her eyebrows. "Then it seems you already have someone in mind."
"Tell me, who is it?"
Ji Xiaolian's nails dug into her palms, her eyes revealing a fierce intent.
"This person is...my father."
She had thought about it.
To permanently get rid of her gambling father's entanglement, the only way is to do what Shang Zeyan did in his previous life: send him to prison.
But simply solving his problem isn't enough.
She wants to use this incident to get rid of all those who are in her way and blocking her path!
"You're willing to sacrifice your own family for the greater good?"
Chi Yanping's pupils contracted sharply. After the initial shock, she narrowed her eyes slightly. "After making such a huge sacrifice, what do you want from me?"
Ji Xiaolian finally looked her straight in the eye.
"I want one hundred million."
"I also have an identity as someone who lives abroad."
“If this matter is accomplished, I will become the daughter of a convict, or even a murderer, and it will be impossible for me to live a clean life for the rest of my life.”
"So, I want 100 million and a clean record to secure my future."
She said the number, but she herself had no idea what it meant.
It's just that Shang Zeyan was too generous to her in her past life.
They're talking about millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions all the time.
So she thought that 100 million was nothing to a wealthy family like theirs.
She even felt she didn't want enough.
But she knew Chi Yanping too well; she was very stingy, so she didn't dare ask for too much.
The main concern is that she might not give it to me.
Sure enough, Chi Yanping's expression changed.
"I didn't expect someone who looks so poor to have such a big appetite," she sneered.
This Ji Xiaolian is really asking for an exorbitant amount.
One hundred million?
She wants so much money, isn't she afraid she won't live to spend it?
Chi Yanping's eyes showed disdain.
Place the teacup on the table.
The bottom of the celadon cup made a crisp sound when it tapped on the marble.
"Is this little bit of money enough to buy your own father's life?" She scoffed, her words full of sarcasm.
This poor wretch is greedy and vicious.
If someone dares to sell out their own father, they'll definitely turn on you if they get more money in the future.
Such a person should never be trusted!
but……
It's still acceptable to use it temporarily.
"Don't worry, Madam. Even if things are exposed, we can put all the blame on my father. Even if you send him to prison, I won't say a word."
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a while, Ji Xiaolian thought she was trying to find a way to refuse her, and said anxiously, "I know you want control of the Shangjia Group."
"If this really works out, then one hundred million will be nothing to you."
"This deal is still very worthwhile."
"Madam, you should consider this carefully."
Chi Yanping suddenly looked at her, alarm bells ringing in her mind.
How could someone who has absolutely no connection to her know that she covets the company's shares?
This person cannot be allowed to live.
Chi Yanping lowered her eyes, already planning how to deal with Ji Xiaolian later.
But she didn't show it at all.
Ji Xiaolian didn't really care how much money she wanted.
They were all just empty promises; ten million and one hundred million made no difference to her.
In any case, we'll get it back in the end.
"Your father would do this?" Chi Yanping frowned, looking suspicious.
