Jiang Kexin couldn't help but feel tense, her eyes filled with fear.
She thought it was a perverted man chasing her to Huangcheng, because the man once mentioned that he spent a lot of money and couldn't let it go to waste.
It was this sentence that made Jiang Kexin mistakenly think that she had met a human trafficker.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, my aunt is here."
Jiang Yongli put down the ointment in her hand, frowned, and cautiously walked to the door.
"Who is it? Is something wrong?"
Her voice was a little trembling. After all, she was a single woman living alone. She would be lying if she said she wasn't afraid. She was just pretending to be calm at the moment.
Ding dong ding dong, ding dong ding dong...
The doorbell kept ringing, but no one responded.
The voice was too low, didn't you hear it?
So Jiang Yongli raised her voice.
"Who is it? Is something wrong?"
"Aunt, it's me, Kede. I'm here to see Kexin. Is she... with you?"
Jiang Kede's anxious and intermittent voice came from outside the door. He hadn't been to the house for a long time, and he was a little worried. He was worried that his aunt would scold him and not let him in.
Jiang Yongli breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
She opened the door and saw Jiang Kede standing at the door. His anxious eyes revealed his concern and worry for Jiang Kexin.
"Why are you standing there stupidly? Come in." Jiang Yongli said lightly.
"Aunt, has Kexin contacted you?"
"She is your sister. You don't even know how I know? I haven't been to your house for how many years. Do you still know that you have me as your aunt?"
This was obviously said with anger, and his face was very ugly.
His elder brother, Jiang Yongheng, favors sons over daughters. He seems to dote on his daughter, Jiang Kexin, on weekdays, but when it comes to matters in the company, he is very partial to his son, Jiang Kede, and is even a little stupid.
Coupled with what happened to Jiang Kexin when she went to Chicheng, at this moment, Jiang Yongli was absolutely furious when she saw Jiang Kede.
"Aunt, it's like this. The day before yesterday, Kexin and I had a fight, and Kexin hurt my face. Then my mother said something to her, and she said she was going to Chicheng. But I called today, I kept turning off my phone, and I was worried because I was afraid that something might happen to her, and it would be unsafe for girls to be outside."
After hearing this, Jiang Yongli suddenly realized that she thought the injury was caused by a drunken fall.
"She was in a bad mood and didn't want to go home."
Jiang Kede breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked with worry on his face: "So how is she doing now? Where is she? Has she come back?"
Jiang Yongli looked at him deeply, feeling a little soft-hearted, so she nodded.
"Oh, that's good, just come back."
"Leng Lingxiao is getting married. She feels very uncomfortable. She wants to stay by herself for a while, so let's not talk about it for now." Jiang Yongli explained meaningfully, with a look of embarrassment on her face.
"Auntie, um... I have a card here, give it to my sister. She left in a hurry, and maybe she didn't bring much with her. It's not much, only around 50,000. The password is the last six digits of my ID card."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Kede took out a bank card from his wallet and handed it over.
"Okay, give it to Kexin when I see her."
In the room, Jiang Kexin heard their conversation, and tears of emotion suddenly welled up in her eyes.
She didn't expect that her brother would be worried about her safety and come here, let alone that he would give her tens of thousands of dollars.
If this money were put in the past, it would be just a matter of a handbag, but now it is too precious!
It turns out that my brother also cares about me.
…
Half an hour later, when Jiang Kede returned home, his mother was opening the safe in the study.
Three in total, now the last one.
There were many exquisite gift boxes and various jewelry on the table, as well as some cash and two full boxes of shining gold bars.
"Mom, did my sister say when she will be back?" Jiang Kede started asking as soon as he entered the door.
After all, she is a biological sister. She still cares about the fight for family property, so she deliberately asked her to see if her mother had calmed down.
If nothing goes wrong, he will go to his aunt's house tomorrow and continue to inquire about his sister's whereabouts.
"I didn't say, don't worry about her for now, and hurry up and pack up. Your uncle and the others may be here soon. This is all reserved for you to get a wife."
The Jiang's building is about to collapse, people's hearts have long been scattered, and all the people coming at this time are wolves.
"Mom, are you... not necessary? My uncle and the others are just coming over to have a meal together and then discuss how to solve the problem..."
Mrs. Jiang shook her head helplessly: "Silly son, people die for money and birds die for food!"
"Oh, okay, got it."
Jiang Kede frowned, didn't say anything more, and then hurriedly put everything on the table into two very inconspicuous travel bags.
The movements were very quick, but what I was thinking about was that I hoped my sister could go home soon.
…
In the commercial street, the lights are on.
In a photography studio, Tang Xiaowan stood on the balcony, looking steadily across the street.
This is the most prosperous area in Chicheng. It is about 500 meters away from Li Zishen's Yishen Shopping Center and only one stop away from Leng Lingxiao's Group Building. The location is very advantageous.
"Wow, half the street is mine!"
"Grandma is so discerning. I don't know how much she spent. This looks... but it's even more grand than Wang Jinghui's half of the pedestrian street."
"Huahua, please call me charterer from now on."
Leng Lingxiao put one hand in his pocket and followed Tang Xiaowan's gaze, a smile flashed in his eyes.
Across the street is a cafe that is about to be renovated. It looks very elegant. At the moment, several workers are doing some finishing work on the second floor.
"Isn't this feeling... so good?"
"Of course, I feel like I can blow up the street at any time." Tang Xiaowan cleared her throat and said proudly, "Hurry up, hurry up, pay the rent, don't miss a penny, or leave."
Leng Lingxiao's thin lips curled up slightly, and she pulled Tang Xiaowan into her arms: "Compared with the 15% shares I gave you, which one is better?"
This posture seems to be coercive, and a bit coercive.
If you dare to say no, I will eat you.
"It's different, how can it be the same!" Tang Xiaowan retorted delicately.
"Do you know what 15% means? Let me tell you, it means that you are already the second largest shareholder of our entire group, and your status is quite high. You can go sideways. Who dares to mess with you! Go there One stop, direct..."
Before he finished speaking, a sweet kiss fell on Leng Lingxiao's hot neck.
Very light and gentle.
The man swallowed, a little caught off guard, and obviously still a little unfinished, so he tightened his arms and stared at his little wife like a hungry wolf.
"What... do you want to do?"
"Is it too light? You can't..."
"Can't, can't, just can't."
Tang Xiaowan curled her lips, broke away from Leng Lingxiao's arms, and made a face at him again.
"What, do you have any objections?"
"Tch, even if I don't have that... 15%, I can still walk sideways. Do you believe it?"
"Xinxinxin, I'm not exaggerating. It's not like I've never been there before. Last time I came back from country Y and passed by the company, you deliberately..."
Leng Lingxiao stopped suddenly, suddenly realizing that he had said the wrong thing and shouldn't have mentioned it.
Because Tang Mei dismissed everyone in the plum garden the next day, and a few days later, Granny Cai had a car accident and died for Tang Mei.
These events all happened in July.
Although Tang Xiaowan knew some, but not everything, and it was only what Tang Mei told her later, but the specific details, as well as the most critical part of them, had been erased and hidden.
"Say it! What's the purpose? Why didn't you say it again?" Tang Xiaowan asked with a frown.
"Walk sideways, like a little crab."
"Oh, yes, yes, I think about it. The photo wall you made on it is actually... quite cute, but you don't know how to appreciate it."
"I don't understand? I took the photo."
"Huh, you just don't understand. You don't understand at all. How can I be like..."
Tang Xiaowan coquettishly took Leng Lingxiao's arm, but before she could finish her words, she suddenly pulled him down and squatted down.
The speed was very fast and the force was very strong, followed by several muffled bangs.
"Hey, classmate Tangtang, why are you even afraid of the nail gun?" Leng Lingxiao asked with raised eyebrows, as if he was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
Tang Xiaowan didn't answer, quickly took off one shoe and carefully lifted it over the balcony.
At this moment, she looked serious.
Leng Lingxiao simply sat on the wooden floor, smiled and picked up a strand of Tang Xiaowan's hair, twisting it between his fingers.
"Don't move, just stay still."
"Have you... watched too many spy movies?"
