Chapter 77 Let's just sleep together
betrayed by his friends, leaving him deeply in debt, Leng Zuojing has been forced to work tirelessly and play mind games with a woman. This has led him to completely distrust any friends from the bot..."Then let's just sleep together." Leng Zhujing looked at Tong Yimo's blushing face and smiled gently.
Suddenly, Tong Yimo looked up at Leng Zhuxi's eyes and couldn't help but be surprised, her heart racing.
After getting their marriage certificate, the two of them continued to sleep in separate rooms.
At this moment, Tong Yimo suddenly had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
She longed to be in his warm embrace, held by him as she drifted off to sleep peacefully.
After moving, Leng Zhuxi cleaned for a while. Glancing at the time on his wristwatch, he entrusted the remaining chores to Tong Yimo and headed off to work himself.
Even though she could reach her doorstep in just a few steps, Tong Yimo still smiled and waved goodbye to Leng Zhujing as she always did.
On my way to the company, there was a pawnshop that had been in business for ten years and was steeped in history.
Leng Zhuxi stood at the pawnshop door, hesitating for a while, before finally walking in alone.
He took off the watch from his wrist while taking out a rectangular gift box from his briefcase and placed it on the counter.
The owner sitting behind the counter took the two items he handed over, examined them carefully, and then said, "The watch is thirty thousand, and the pen is fifteen thousand."
"Is this all you can pawn" Leng Zhujing frowned unhappily.
"Your watch and pen are indeed high-end brands, but the pawn price I'm offering you at three times its value is already quite generous. If you went to another pawn shop, they wouldn't give you more than two times its value, maybe even just one!" The boss looked at him with a "take it or leave it" expression.
Cold Zhudjing frowned in deep thought for a moment.
Next month, he will have to start repaying the loan. With his monthly salary, he can only use it all for repayment, and there's still a little bit short. He and Yimo still need to spend some money on living expenses.
In order to make ends meet, Leng Zhujing even pawned off his watch and fountain pen.
The watch was given to him by his runaway friend after he made his first fortune. As for the fountain pen, it was a birthday gift from Ji Siyan when they were dating six years ago.
Ji Siyan was a rich heiress. Back then, she told him that the money she used to buy him gifts was the remaining allowance she had saved since childhood.
She felt it was worth spending money on him because she loved him.
Now that he thinks about it, Leng Zhugjing feels quite pathetic, even to the point of having to rely on a birthday gift his ex-lover gave him to make ends meet.
As soon as he left the pawnshop, Qi Siyan emerged from a corner not far away, gazing thoughtfully at his departing figure.
What did Ajing go to the pawnshop for
After seeing Leng Zhujing walk away, Ji Siyan turned and entered the pawnshop she had just been in to inquire about him.
The boss was initially evasive, unwilling to say much about Leng Zhujing. It wasn't until Ji Siyan took out her bank card to buy back the things Leng Zhujing had pawned that the boss started smiling broadly and became extra attentive towards Ji Siyan.
"Look at that man! He really looks like he's short on money!" The boss muttered as he swiped his card for Ji Siyan.
Ji Siyan held the watch and pen, her eyes downcast with sorrow.
She wasn't interested in the origin of this watch, but she cared about this pen.
AJing just casually pawned the birthday gift she had once given him, so, in AJing's heart, has she lost her value
No!
No!
Ajing must still love her. He must have encountered some difficulties and had no choice but to pawn the birthday gift she gave him.
After the boss finished swiping his card, he presented the card and receipt to Ji Siyan with both hands, saying politely, "Welcome back next time!"
Ji Siyan put away her bank card and gave her brother Ji Yunheng a call.
As soon as the phone was answered, Ji Siyan eagerly told her brother, Ji Yunheng, "Brother, can you check if Ajing has recently encountered any financial difficulties"
“My dear sister! How can you still be thinking about Leng Zhujing at this point You should focus your attention on your older brother, Leng Yeshen! What good is Leng Zhujing He's just a bastard son of the Leng family, and he doesn't even have an ounce of inheritance rights to the Leng Corporation.” Ji Yunan went on and on about Leng Zhujing, badmouthing him incessantly.
Actually, the most important thing is that he doesn't think highly of Leng Zhujing and doesn't want his sister to waste her youth on a useless man.
Ji Siyan naturally understood her brother Ji Yunheng's thoughts. Ever since the news that Leng Yeshen had retired from the army and entered business spread, amongst the upper-class socialites, all the young ladies were eager to make a move on Leng Yeshen.
Who wouldn't want to be the eldest mistress of the Leng family, and in the future, share the Leng Corporation equally with Leng Yechen
Let's not talk about Leng Yechen's strength and background first. Just talk about his appearance. He is handsome and extraordinary, dashing and heroic, so handsome that it makes women unable to close their legs, not to mention Leng Zhuijing can't compare to him.
But even so, Ji Siyan still couldn't let go of Leng Zhujing in her heart.
Why is that
She is no longer the simple girl she used to be.
She also wanted to conquer Leng Yesen and become the eldest mistress of the Leng family...
But why was she so unwilling to accept Leng Zhujing's fate
He was unwilling to let her just be forgotten like that...
He couldn't just accept that she didn't care about him anymore...
Ji Siyan took a deep breath and angrily shouted at her brother, Ji Yunan: "Brother, if you still want me to attract Leng Yechen's attention and let the Leng family and Ji family get married, then you better help me investigate what happened to Ajing."
"Alright, alright, I'll look into it for you! Oh, by the way. Isn't Ji YaShan being supported by some man recently A friend of mine told me they saw her get into a luxury car worth millions, but it had an out-of-province license plate, and I can't find information about the real owner." Ji Yun Heng couldn't help but gossip about his half-sister Ji YaShan with Ji SiYan.
Since the kidnapping ordeal where Jiayasang barely survived, her relationship with her family became even more strained. Her father hadn't actually paid the ransom that time; it was her mother who refused to, so Jiayasang must hate her mother now.
"I'm not really sure either. After I came back, I only saw her once, and she was still the same old grumpy self. All in all, let's just leave her things alone. She'll never remember us siblings being good to her anyway." Ji Siyan said nonchalantly.
She and her brother are really something else, going out of their way to worry about what a mistress's daughter is doing.
"Alright! I'll hang up first. When I find information about Leng Zhuxiang, I'll send it to you." After Ji Yunan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
As soon as Ji Siyan arrived at the company, Leng Zhujing handed her a stack of documents and instructed her to take them to the headquarters of Leng Corporation to be signed by his older brother, Leng Yechen. She was then to bring the signed documents back.
As luck would have it, he gave her a chance to be near Leng Yechen.
