The message was sent but fell into disarray. Jiang Lan held her phone tightly and waited anxiously.

After waiting for a full twenty minutes, there was no reply.

Grandma Zhang watched her face darken a little bit, and couldn't help but shake Jiang Lan's hand, "Lan Lan, I appreciate your kindness. Thank you, thank you very much."

Liu Ping finished a plate of oranges on the other end and turned around to ask, "Are you okay yet? Your Lu family is so rich, can't you not even be able to get out half a million?"

Jiang Lan looked at the old man's face, bit her lip, and called Lu Jingchi.

The call was connected, but it wasn't Lu Jingchi who answered it.

"Jiang Lan, Jingchi is busy right now. If you have anything to do, send him a message." It was Xia Yan's voice.

Jiang Lan's heart sank completely, and even the last hope was gone.

Xia Yan hung up the phone, put the phone back on Lu Jingchi's table, and said, "That mute called you. He didn't know what was going on."

Lu Jingchi picked up his phone and looked at WeChat. His eyes flickered. He chose to ignore it and threw the phone back.

His move successfully made Xia Yan smile. She approached Lu Jingchi, hugged his arm and said, "I'm going to sign a contract with my agent this afternoon. You promised me to be a big star. You won't break your promise, right?"

Lu Jingchi put down the documents in his hand, squeezed Xia Yan's hand, and smiled slightly: "Have you packed your things?"

Xia Yan glared at him angrily, "Pack it up! You don't want to see me that much?"

Lu Jingchi lowered his gaze and landed on her fancy manicure, "It's not that I don't want to see you, it's that you are really not suitable to work here."

"You still dislike me!" Xia Yan withdrew her hand as if holding it up.

Lu Jingchi glanced at her and said calmly: "Do you know how many people are complaining when you are here?"

"So what?" Xia Yan said confidently, "It's not because of your connivance. They hate me, and you are half responsible!"

Lu Jingchi raised his eyebrows without commenting.

Xia Yan bent down, hugged Lu Jingchi, and kissed him on the face, "Shall I go then?"

"Be careful on the road."

Xia Yan then let him go, turned back to her work station, hugged her things and walked out.

Now her mind is filled with the image of being a star, attracting everyone's attention, and being glamorous.

In fact, Xia Yan is not stupid. If Lu Jingchi doesn't agree to marry her, she will have no protection, so she might as well use Lu Jingchi's connections and resources to benefit herself, which can be regarded as giving herself a guarantee.

Lu Jingchi has raised her so comfortably in the past few years. If Lu Jingchi really doesn't want her in the future, she will have nothing.

Only having money in your hands is the most practical thing.

And she acted big-hearted and brainless just to look like she had no scheming in front of Lu Jingchi. As Lu Jingchi said, those who have everything written on their faces are the best people to control.

So you see how well she is doing now, Lu Jingchi is always responsive to her requests and gets whatever she wants.

She didn't even bother to trouble Jiang Lan. Firstly, she wouldn't get any favors from him, and secondly, it was unnecessary.

The problem with wanting to marry Lu Jingchi is Lu Jingchi, not Jiang Lan.

In Jiang Lan and Lu Jingchi's marriage, the initiative has never been on Jiang Lan's part, and she would only target Jiang Lan if she lost her mind.

On the other side, Jiang Lan had given up asking Lu Jingchi to borrow money, so she had no choice but to send a message to Si Ning.

Si Ning quickly messaged back: Lanlan, why do you need so much money? All my cards are frozen now. I don't have so much money, but don't worry, I'll ask my brother.
