Chapter 278 Return to Twenty Years Ago (13)
Colleagues continued to ask Wen Li about Ji Tingyang, and Wen Li looked embarrassed.
Until she saw the boy outside the store from a distance, Wen Li immediately took off her apron and said, "My boyfriend is here to pick me up. I'm going back from get off work first. See you tomorrow."
said After that, she went out and took Xiao Yu away in a hurry.
Seeing her rushing to leave, Xiao Yu was a little confused, "What's wrong?"
Wen Li told him what had just happened, "My colleague thought that was my friend and insisted on asking me for that person's contact information. How could I have it?"
Then she thought about it again, "But even if Yes, I won’t tell her either.”
“Why?” Xiao Yu asked.
“Because I don’t like my colleague.” Wen Li smiled and gave a petty answer.
Every time her colleague went to work, she always liked to fish out and leave the work to her alone. Wen Li even quarreled with her several times because of this.
Xiao Yu chuckled.
On the way home, the two chatted about trivial matters in life.
Xiao Yu said that he had received the prize money from the competition and he could treat her to steak tomorrow.
He also said that a senior invited him to open a studio together, and he would work hard to make a lot of money in the future so that she could live a good life.
"Okay, I will work hard too." Wen Li's eyebrows were filled with a smile.
After taking the bus for half an hour, Wen Li returned home. As soon as she entered the door, a water glass was smashed at her feet, and sharp fragments flew away.
Then she heard the familiar scolding voice again, "You're going to starve us to death if you come back so late!"
Wen Li pursed her lips and silently picked up the fragments. In the trash can, "I changed to a part-time job in a dessert shop, and I got off work a little late."
"What are you going to do part-time when running out all day long? If you have that little time, you might as well get rid of your rich husband. When the time comes, What's the matter?" Father Wen glared over, eyebrows raised one by one, and said sternly.
Mother Wen also nodded in agreement, "You're right. I think the classmate who chased you before is pretty good. His family owns a big factory. The car that drove downstairs to our house last time was a BMW. Yes, if you can marry him, let him give you more money to help the family, and your brother’s dowry will be settled.”
Many people had come after Wen Li before, but that person was the most high-profile, driving a modified BMW and carrying a large bouquet of roses and shouting downstairs at her house, asking Wen Li to agree to be his girlfriend.
The passers-by onlookers were lamenting the romance, but Wen Li felt very embarrassed. She hated those self-righteous rich people the most.
Wen Li angrily took several basins of water and poured it down from upstairs. Finally, the man drove away in the car, all wet.
Afterwards, she was scolded by her parents, saying that she was ungrateful.
Mentioning this, Wen Li felt a burst of irritation in her heart, "If you want money, let your brother find a rich woman to marry into. Even the dowry will be saved."
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap in the face.
Wen Li's ears suddenly buzzed, and her head went blank. She covered her ears and froze in place.
It took a long time for her to react.
She was beaten by her father.
"What are you talking about? Can your brother be the same as you?" Father Wen's curse became louder and louder, and even Mother Wen on the side also cursed, "I said at the beginning I shouldn’t have sent her to school, spent so much money on her, and now she even learned to talk back.”
Mother Wen shrank her neck and hurriedly went to teach her daughter, "How can a man get married? You are stupid in studying! And you should break up with that poor boy named Xiao quickly, do you hear me!"
The anger is there! Her heart kept churning, and her whole body seemed to become numb. Wen Li clenched her hands tightly and returned to the room in silence. After closing the bedroom door, she took out the piggy bank under the bed, poured all the money in it onto the bed, and counted them one by one.
The quarrel between parents could be heard outside the living room. Wen Li turned a deaf ear and focused entirely on counting money.
Every time she quarreled with her parents, she would always count the money in the piggy bank, feel the rising savings, and reassure herself how long she had to endure before she could move out.
Soon.
With a thousand yuan left, she saved up enough deposit to rent the house she had been eyeing before and move out.
……
The other side.
Lin Xu took Ji Tingyang and Ji Lanyue onto the plane happily and set off towards the island.
Ji Zeqiu was filming on the set when he found out about this. After the scene, he found a chair to sit down and rest. He took out his cell phone to see if anyone had contacted him.
After replying some work messages, he looked at Lin Xu pinned to the top of WeChat and clicked in.
He had not received a reply to the message he sent to Lin Xu two hours ago, and he was a little confused.
In the past, the messages he sent to Lin Xu were always replied within seconds, and the last time he sent her was no more than half an hour. This was the first time that he didn't reply to his message for so long.
Is mother busy with something?
But there was nothing more important than her son.
Ji Zeqiu pursed his lips and casually clicked into her circle of friends. However, he never expected to see photos of Lin Xu and Ji Tingyang playing at the beach, and his eyes widened instantly.
The time was still an hour ago.
In other words, mother is traveling with Ji Tingyang now? !
Ji Zeqiu made an aggressive call, and his first words after the call were filled with grievances, "Mom, how can you travel with Ji Tingyang? That guy has many bad habits. He also likes to have a stinking face all day long. It will be very hard for you to go out with him.”
"Why didn't I know that I still had so many problems?" Ji Tingyang's voice sounded on the other end of the phone.
Ji Zeqiu was shocked. He did not feel embarrassed at all after being caught saying bad things about others. Instead, he accused him forcefully, "How could you take your mother's cell phone and eavesdrop on her calls!"
"First of all, my mother went to the bathroom. She asked me to take my bag. Secondly, your phone call shouldn't be a private matter, right?" Ji Tingyang said softly.
"It's wrong to eavesdrop on my mother's phone calls. I want to file a complaint with my mother and ask her to abandon you and never travel with you again." Ji Zeqiu was angry.
Ji Tingyang: "Thank you for the reminder. In order to prevent you from filing a lawsuit, I should help my mother block all your contact information."
Ji Zeqiu: "Ah, ah, Ji Tingyang, you bastard, if you dare to block me, I will fly to join you right now, believe it or not!"
Lin Xu didn't expect that she just went to the bathroom, and the two brothers We were actually able to argue on the phone.
Seeing Lin Xu come back, Ji Tingyang immediately stopped talking. Ji Zeqiu also took this opportunity to act coquettishly with Lin Xu, "Mother, how could you leave me and travel alone with Ji Tingyang?"
"I'm not alone, Lan Yue is here too." Lin Xu said.
"Isn't father also here?" Was he the only one who was abandoned?
"Ayan is handling work for Tingyang in the company."
Ji Zeqiu seemed to get a little comfort, now the two poor people who were abandoned were him and his father.
