Chapter 537: The Bet
The air was completely quiet, everyone's heads were lowered, and the faces of everyone who came to the memorial service were filled with sadness and nostalgia.
"Although I knew that her health had never been very good, I didn't expect it to ...... so quickly"
"It's not easy to live to this age, she's sick, and death may be the best relief for her?"
"Alright, alright, today is not the time to say that."
Ji Yan heard a few people whispering, because of the relative distance, he heard a lot, but he didn't stand up and accuse them of saying something wrong or not speaking at the funeral, he just lowered his eyes and wiped away tears.
The funeral does not require people to stay here for a long time before leaving, and after a while, many people left, and there were only three or three people talking in the venue, but most of them had already retreated.
She didn't plan to stay here for too long, so after sending the flowers, she was ready to leave with her, but she didn't want to be stopped by Jiang Zhen.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, the matter of you making me so angry just now has not been resolved! Would you really let you go so easily? Jiang Zhen waved her hand, and soon several people went over to take her away.
She searched for Ji Zhenxiong's figure in the crowd, but found that he was talking to a few people not far away, and seeing him chatting so happily, she could basically determine that it was related to business.
"So what? You're here to tell me something. Ji Yan was not frightened by her because of those few people who seemed to be pretentious, but felt a little funny in his heart, "I really didn't make it clear just now, so I don't mind staying and playing with you." It's just that I remember that slap, and I have to pay it back sooner or later! β
Ji Rou also followed with a glass of wine, and skillfully commanded people to bring Ji Yan into the house, while still saying cruel words, "I originally thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect that it was just a fake smart." Now that your protector Lu Tingshen is no longer there, do you really think that you can grow three heads and six arms to escape? β
The corners of Jiang Zhen's mouth rose slightly, obviously wanting to laugh out loud like her, but thinking that things hadn't worked out yet, she just asked people to bring Ji Yan in first.
She didn't say anything, just glanced at the people around her, and then walked in as easily as she had come to her own house.
It was as if the place she was going to next was not to suffer, but to be a guest.
"Why do I feel that something is not right? Mom, are you sure that Ji Yan didn't leave a back hand? I had a particularly bad premonition for some reason. β
Jiang Zhen also felt that something was wrong, but the people were here now, and by the time they finished making a move, Lu Tingshen received the news and rushed over, it would have been useless for a long time!
So, as long as they solve these things before Lu Tingshen, this won't be a problem!
"Alright, I know how to do this. You just need to prepare for the audition now, and since staying here won't make your career shine, then you can go to your uncle's side. With this level of kinship between you, I don't believe that he will not help you when you are in trouble. β
After speaking, she walked directly past Ji Rou and walked into the house.
Ji Zhenxiong hasn't finished talking about his business yet, so at this time, Ji Yan only has himself to rely on, and there are fewer and fewer people staying outside at this time, and when everyone is gone, it may be time for something to happen.
Jiang Zhen asked people to prepare a lot of things to entertain her, and all of them were placed on the table at this time, so the sense of sight was very spectacular, and the table and the ground were full of things that Ji Yan liked to eat and appreciate.
Ji Yan looked at those things, and his eyes could only reveal a mocking light, "If people who don't know the inside story see this, they may feel that our relationship is so good." You know what you are preparing for, and if you can do this well when dealing with other things, some unnecessary things may not happen. β
It's a pity that she only does so well when she treats herself and the benefits at her fingertips.
However, as long as I think that most people are actually in this situation, Ji Yan is relieved.
"You don't have to be sloppy with me here, since you came to this Hongmen banquet, I can't let you leave easily, even if Lu Tingshen comes over to take you away in person, I can't agree." She took out a photo album, "Mother Lian has been staying with you all this time, presumably your will is fake." Then, as long as you are willing to tell me where the real will is, I will return this to you. β
The Ji family doesn't have many photo albums, in other words, they rarely choose to record their lives in a certain way, because they think that they can't let go of the past, and they can't even let go of the past, so naturally they can't better chase the future.
So, at the first glance of that album, Ji Yan knew whose it was.
Ji Yan sighed slightly, and he didn't know if he was lamenting the fate of that album or something else, "For you, she is not an elder at all, just a tool for you to use at any time." β
Now that people are dead, they can even take out photo albums and use them.
"Elders? She never liked me as a daughter-in-law at all, so why should I treat her as an adult. Jiang Zhen opened the album and looked at a few pages, and then made a gesture to tear it up, "This album doesn't matter to me whether I keep it or not, but it records all the experiences you and her have had over the years." Can you really do away with it? β
She didn't answer, but her eyes couldn't leave the photo album in Jiang Zhen's hand.
"Actually, you don't need to be so angry, the deal is so that both parties can get something better, isn't that the purpose of both of us? You are not from the Ji family at all, so no matter what she gives you, you are just an outsider with an unjustified name. β
The few people who stood by and watched Ji Yan only felt that the conversation between the two of them was full of details, but they didn't dare to squeak.
Ji Yan smiled thoughtfully, "So you mean that what I lost shouldn't have been what I gained, and if it was replaced by another person, these things would have their so-called meaning." But what you can't get yourself, why do you expect others to give it away? You wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that you can do whatever you want with just this album. β
There was a sneer on the corner of her mouth, if it weren't for the fact that today was the old lady's funeral, she wouldn't have spared them like this.
There are always some people who have lived smoothly for most of their lives and feel that everyone in the world has to do what she wants, otherwise it will be a mistake, Jiang Zhen is such a person now.
"Sometimes I really think that Ji Rou inherited your stupidity, you all know that this is the Hongmen Banquet, so you can't imagine why I came to participate? Knowing it was a game, I jumped in anyway. You may be able to guess the answer. β
Jiang Zhen paused, she frowned and thought about Ji Yan's words, but she couldn't catch any answers.
I just vaguely feel that something is not right, but I can't say what the problem is.
But that's not the most important thing at the moment, she threw the album into the trash with a wave of her hand, "So you're reluctant to tell where the will is?" Since you're not willing to cooperate, you can't blame me for being too ruthless. β
Surprisingly, she didn't pick up a knife or any dangerous weapons, but just whispered a few words to the men before heading out.
Soon, the group of men surrounded her again, and their eyes were very unfriendly.
Ji Yan probably guessed a little bit of what they were going to do, but he didn't panic at all, "No matter what a person like you does, it won't surprise people, because you are a person with no bottom line and no lower limit." What can a man and a woman do in the same room, you can only think of this method. β
Jiang Zhen had already walked to the door, but after hearing this, she didn't even look back, "What things I can't see thoroughly when I live to this time?" Today's men and women say that they are in love if they are good, but they are talking about sex when they are bad. If Lu Tingshen knew that you were having an affair with another man, I don't believe that he could continue to live with you under such a big green hat. β
She said these words in a very firm tone, as if she had seen Ji Yan's future.
"Really? In that case, let's make a bet. β
Jiang Zhen hadn't left the room yet, so those men didn't act immediately, just stood motionless like a mountain, Ji Yan looked down at his hand, and it was a little darker.
She looked suspicious, but she was very anxious when she thought of the will, "What do you want to bet with me?" I'm not curious about what the bet is, but I want to know what the bet is. If you lose, I want to know where the real will is! β
As long as you get the real will and modify the content on it when no one knows that it exists, Ji Zhenxiong will not be angry with her!
If this matter can be handled better, then it may be able to be solved together with Ji Rou's matter!
Thinking about it, Jiang Zhen's waist couldn't help but straighten up.
"Okay." Ji Yan's red lips opened lightly, and he lightly dropped a sentence, "I was able to leave here safely and smoothly today, and you personally sent me away." β
As soon as he heard these words, he knew that it was impossible to achieve at all, but Ji Yan was so sure that this had to make people feel a little puzzled.
Could it be that she really came prepared this time?
Ji Yan didn't say anything more, but saw that she was silent for a long time before adding, "If you don't want to, no one will force you to do something you don't want to do." It's just that in this way, you won't be able to get the true will you have in mind. β
In fact, it was a dilemma, she had to choose between the two that she wanted the most. But whether it is to let Ji Yan and Lu Tingshen completely cut off their relationship or get a will, she can't miss it!
"Time is running out, and if you don't want to, just let me not say it. Then I'll be gone in a moment, and no one will cash out your bet on you. β
Time is running out, Ji Yan thought as he looked at the snow outside the window.
