Liu Feng raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Why does big brother want to go home today?”
Jiang Luan smiled bitterly. “The laboratory’s funds can not continue like this. I’ll go back and discuss with dad to see if he can take out a portion of the money to invest.”
Liu Feng lowered her eyebrows slightly. Jiang Luan was indeed someone who conducted experiments. He was always so simple. It was impossible for Jiang He to be unaware that Jiang Luan was currently short of funds, so why had he not made a move?
It was because Jiang He was a person who prioritized benefits. The laboratory had no benefits for Jiang He. Of course, he would choose to ignore it.
Liu Feng did not attack Jiang Luan. She smiled and nodded.
“Let’s go home together.”
Jiang Luan nodded. Liu Feng sent a message to Gu Duo.
The two of them stepped into the Jiang family’s living room together. Qin Xi greeted them with a gentle smile.
“Luan and Lil Feng are back. Your father and I were just about to give you guys a call. The food in the kitchen has just been prepared. Hurry up and wash your hands and come over for dinner.”
“Mom, I have something to discuss with dad first.” Jiang Luan’s tone was gentle as her gaze fell on Jiang He.
Jiang He shook the newspaper in his hand. Jiang He did not have a good expression towards Jiang Luan, so Qin XI quickly tried to smooth things over.
“Why are father and son so estranged? Let’s sit down and eat while we talk.”
Qin Xi lowered her eyebrows slightly. What did Jiang Luan want to say to Jiang He? How could he leave her out?
The entire Jiang family had to be under her control!
Liu Feng glanced at Qin Xi teasingly and walked straight to the dining room to sit down. The whole family quickly gathered at the dining table.
The atmosphere was eerily quiet. Liu Feng ate the food in front of her in silence. Jiang Yue was unusually obedient. She must have been scared by Liu Feng these two days.
After Qin Xi served Jiang He and Jiang Luan a bowl of soup each, she asked Jiang Luan with a smile.
“Luan, what were you going to talk to your father about just now? Why are you being so mysterious? Is it something we can’t know?”
Jiang Luan shook his head and looked down at the soup in front of him. He took a deep breath and looked up at Jiang He.
“Dad, I want to borrow some money from you.”
Jiang He snorted and placed the soup bowl on the table. “You want to borrow money from me? Don’t think that I don’t know what you want to borrow money for? Jiang Luan, when are you going to give up on your stupid experiment?”
Jiang He had always been disdainful of Jiang Luan’s experiment.
Jiang Luan, who had always been gentle, had a bad look on his face. He forced himself to say to Jiang He, “Dad, now that the experiment has reached a critical stage, I will return the money to you.”
“Hah.” Jiang He sneered.
“Your stupid experiment has always reached a critical stage. What’s the result? After all these years, what have I gained from throwing this money into the pond? Even if I throw a stone into the pond, it would still make a loud noise. What can I gain from your experiment?”
“Jiang Luan, calculate how much money you have taken from me. If you want to borrow money, you can do so. Return the money from previously to me first, and I will lend it to you.”
Jiang He’s words were like a slap to Jiang Luan’s face. Jiang Luan’s fingers clenched the chopsticks tightly, and his pale joints trembled slightly.
“Luan is your son. How can you say that about him?” Qin Xi’s eyes were filled with slight mockery. She turned her head, and the pride on her face could not be concealed. However, her tone was still as if she was consoling him.
“Luan, your father is right. You’ve been conducting experiments all these years. Your two younger sisters have already grown up. Who knows, they might get married one day, especially Lil Feng. Look at her now with Third Young Master Gu.”
“Getting married is a huge expense. And you, what do you plan to do when you get married in the future? You can’t let outsiders laugh at you.”
Jiang Luan had already expected that he would not be able to get the money. His handsome face was covered with a layer of coldness, but his tone was still gentle.
“Mom, I understand. In the future, when Lil Feng gets married, I’ll prepare a dowry for her. You don’t have to worry about my marriage.”
“Luan, Yue’er is also your sister. You can’t just think about Lil Feng and forget about Yue’er.
No matter what, Qin Xi would never forget to curry favor with Jiang Yue.
Liu Feng only felt that the meal was uncomfortable. She wiped the corner of her mouth, stood up, and was ready to leave..
