“What do you mean you disagree?!” Mother Ji looked at Ji Qingqing in disbelief. “Qingqing, you haven’t even married and yet you’re already offering your elbow to the other side?”
Ji Qingqing decided to be upfront. “Yes, I still haven’t married but I’ve already given you enough money in the past.”
“I gave birth to you and took care of you. Why can’t you give me some money to spend?”
“Yes, you did give birth to me and take care of me. There’s nothing wrong with giving you some money to spend. But when I was young, you and dad were busy earning money and spared absolutely no time nor energy to take care of us. I believe that the money I gave you previously has already paid off all the expenses you used to raise me. As for the gratitude for giving birth to me, let me tell you honestly, my current reputation isn’t that good. Last night when I brought Chengxi back to my apartment, it got filmed by reporters and ended up spreading wildly on the Internet. I don’t think there will be any endorsements for me so there isn’t much money for me to earn. My current net worth isn’t even worth ten million yuan.”
“No! Ten million yuan and not a single cent less! If you do not agree, I’ll... I’ll take this matter to the Internet!”
Ji Qingqing glanced at her.
She had absolutely no feelings towards Mother Ji. If it wasn’t because she was ‘Ji Qingqing’s mother,’ she wouldn’t even have wanted to come at all for this trip.
Ten million yuan or one million yuan both didn’t have much difference towards Lu Lixing. His brow wouldn’t knit from it.
Ji Qingqing glanced briefly at Mother Ji and sat down.
Raising her head, Mother Ji gulped down two mouthfuls of water and eventually suppressed the anger in her heart.
After a while, she faced Lu Lixing with a serious expression and said, “Who is in your family; tell me about your family situation.”
“My parents passed away. I only have a grandfather and a younger brother.”
“Your parents passed away?” Mother Ji immediately replied, “Then if you do have children in the future, both of us definitely won’t be going over to take care of them. Her father’s health isn’t good and I’m too busy taking care of him.”
Lu Lixing’s face was expressionless. “Rest assured, we won’t trouble you.” He continued, “Previously you said it too, a married daughter is like water that has been spilled. I hope that after you accept this one million yuan. If there’s nothing important, do not go and pester Qingqing.”
