Chapter 30: Torture
Wu Fengqin sneered, her facial features gathered together, and her thick fingers poked Ji Xiaoxi's shoulder, and said word by word.
"If it weren't for your own indiscretion and putting on a little white face, our family would not have fallen to today's field at all, I don't care what method you use, I want to see 20,000 yuan on the weekend."
The atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing for a while. Ji Xiaoxi pinched his fingers aggrievedly and said with a crying voice. "Where can I get 20,000 yuan in a few days? I used to work in a coffee shop, and I only got a dozen yuan an hour."
Wu Fengqin's eyes were as big as walnuts, as if she was going to eat Ji Xiaoxi, "I don't care!" Did I raise you for nothing? Why did that little white face sleep you in vain without spending a penny? If you had followed Boss Wang, you would have eaten and drunk spicy food a long time ago, and you would have to cry with me here because of 20,000 yuan? β
Ji Xiaoxi was full of grievances, since she was born, Wu Fengqin and Ji Changsheng gave all their love to Ji Shuangshuang, what did she do wrong to be treated like this.
"I'm going to look for a part-time job tomorrow, and I'll take it all by the weekend, no matter how much money I make, is that okay?" Ji Xiaoxi looked at Wu Fengqin with almost pleading eyes.
20,000 yuan, for Ji Xiaoxi, is almost an unapproachable astronomical amount.
The corners of Wu Fengqin's mouth flicked downward, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes rose up, "Ji Xiaoxi, what about the money you earn from your part-time job to get food?" I don't care so much about you, I just want to see the money, and if you don't give money, you don't want to stop. β
Ji Xiaoxi never thought that his biological mother would say such unreasonable words.
"Mom, it's useless for you to force me, I can't take it out." Ji Xiaoxi's shoulders hung weakly and said in a low voice.
"If you don't give me money, I'll go to Puji University and tell me how you are sorry for your parents and shamelessly climb into a man's bed, and I will see how you go to school there." Wu Fengqin turned around arrogantly and sat on the sofa.
She didn't know where Puji University was, but she had raised Ji Xiaoxi for 20 years, and she still knew a little bit about Ji Xiaoxi. Ji Xiaoxi is thin-skinned and will definitely compromise.
Hearing that Wu Fengqin was going to popularize the university, Ji Xiaoxi's face turned white with fright, and he raised his head nervously, "I'll try my best to find a way!" I'm going to look for a job right now. β
"You can hurry." After Wu Fengqin finished speaking, he pushed Ji Xiaoxi out unceremoniously.
Bang.
Ji Xiaoxi had just stepped out of the door with his two feet, and there was a heavy sound of the door closing behind him.
Even through the thick door panel, Wu Fengqin's sharp voice still penetrated her ears word for word.
"Twenty thousand! Not a single point less! β
Ji Xiaoxi dragged his heavy steps and slowly rubbed his steps downstairs. She didn't want to mention everything in this family to Ye Chensheng, including 20,000 yuan.
But Wu Fengqin's character Ji Xiaoxi knows better than anyone else, her mother has always done what she says, no matter who it is, as long as she doesn't follow Wu Fengqin's temperament, she will definitely continue to make trouble.
Entangled all the way, Ji Xiaoxi unconsciously walked to the bus stop. Looking up at the stop sign, Ji Xiaoxi hesitated and jumped on the bus that had just stopped.
There were not many people on the bus, but Ji Xiaoxi's palms were still covered with a layer of slippery sweat.
After staggering for five stops, Ji Xiaoxi got out of the car eagerly and trotted all the way towards a magnificent building on the side of the road.
Ji Xiaoxi glanced up at the huge Lingyu Media on his head, turned around a few times in place, and finally gritted his teeth, took out the phone and dialed Qin Lingchuan's phone.
"Konishi?" The phone was quickly connected, and the voice of Qinlingchuan as warm as a mountain spring flowed out of the earpiece.
Ji Xiaoxi's throat tightened, choked up, and squeezed the phone, "Brother Qin, can you come down for a trip, I'm at the door of your company." β
Qin Lingchun on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, and quickly said, "You wait for me for three minutes, and I'll go down to find you soon." β
Hanging up the phone, Ji Xiaoxi honestly stood under the poplar tree at the door, looking at the door of Lingyu Media with anticipation.
At this time, on the fifth floor of Lingyu Media, Lin Na held the cheesecake she had carefully prepared in her hand and gently knocked on the door of Qin Lingchuan's office.
"Nana, why are you here?" A flash of surprise flashed across Qin Lingchuan's face. FiancΓ©e Lin Na is a well-known fashion designer in China, usually very busy at work, the two of them get together less and leave more, and most of the time they rely on video and phone calls to communicate their feelings.
According to Lin Na's itinerary, Lin Na should be at New York Fashion Week now.
Lin Na smiled lightly, revealing two cute pear vortexes, "I'll fly back to see you when I miss you." As he spoke, he raised the delicate cake box in his hand, "I made cheesecake to comfort you." β
"You're so busy at work, just let the maid at home do this kind of thing." Qin Lingchuan took the cake and poured a glass of warm water for Lin Na.
"Then what's the matter, this is a love cake I prepared for you, I can only make it myself." Lin Na pursed her lips playfully, and her slender arms took advantage of the situation to hold Qin Lingchuan.
Qin Lingchuan raised his eyes and looked at the time, a trace of anxiety appeared between his eyebrows, he carefully withdrew his arm from Lin Na's arms, and said slightly apologetically, "Nana, I'm in a bit of a hurry now, you wait for me here first, and I'll be back soon." β
"Okay, then hurry up, or I'm going to get angry." Lin Na let go of her hand and said sensibly.
As the second son of the Lingyu Media Empire, Qin Lingchuan's usual schedule is almost full, and as his girlfriend, Lin Na can understand it very well.
"Good." Qin Lingchuan kissed Lin Na on the forehead, and hurriedly got off the elevator.
"Konishi." As soon as he walked out of the gate, Qin Lingchuan saw Ji Xiaoxi in a daze under the tree.
Ji Xiaoxi raised his head and met Qin Lingchuan's concerned eyes, his nose suddenly became sore, and his lips trembled timidly a few times, "Brother Qin, can you do me a favor." β
When Qin Lingchuan saw Ji Xiaoxi's pitiful expression, he knew that her family must have bullied her again, so he immediately held Ji Xiaoxi's shoulders and asked softly, "Xiaoxi, what's wrong, you make it clear first." β
"My dad and others failed to invest, and the family has no money at all, and my mother said that she must come up with 20,000 yuan before the weekend, otherwise she will go to school to make trouble." Originally, Ji Xiaoxi just felt angry along the way, but after seeing Qin Lingchuan, the grievances in his stomach were like an avalanche, and he was out of control, and his eyes turned red as he spoke.
"Your parents are just too much!" Qin Lingchuan's always gentle face rarely showed a trace of anger.
