For several days in a row, Jiang Ruoxi went to school in the morning, and it was already evening when she returned to the apartment. Moreover, she felt exhausted and went to bed early at night.
A ringtone woke her up from her sleep. Jiang Ruoxi looked at the coldness of the room. He still hadn't come back. She took the mobile phone placed on the low cabinet beside her and it turned out to be her home number.
"Hello." Although she was extremely reluctant to answer the call, Jiang Ruoxi still picked it up.
"Ruoxi, where are you now?" Zhao Yufen's voice sounded a little anxious, and she sounded like she had just cried.
"Mom, did something happen? I'm in the apartment now." We haven't contacted each other for so long. If something hadn't happened at home, they might have forgotten that she was still their daughter!
Zhao Yufen choked and asked, "Ruoxi, can you come back? Your dad..."
"What's wrong, dad?" Jiang Ruoxi frowned slightly, with unconcealed worry on her face.
"You come back now! If Leng Yan is with you, you will come back together!" After Zhao Yufen finished speaking, she hung up the phone in a hurry.
Jiang Ruoxi looked at the time and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock. Leng Yan probably wouldn't come back. After she got up and changed her clothes, she quickly walked out of the apartment.
The late night wind stung her face, and Jiang Ruoxi stood on the street, but there were very few passing vehicles. After waiting for nearly half an hour, a taxi finally appeared in her sight.
The lights in Jiang's villa were brightly lit at this time. Jiang Ruoxi rang the doorbell, and the servant soon opened the door, "Miss, you are back."
Jiang Ruoxi hummed and quickly walked into the living room.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Jiang Ruoxi saw Jiang Jianmin and Zhao Yufen sitting on the sofa in the living room, and Jiang Ruoya and Lei Yuting were also there, which surprised her a little.
"Why did you come back just now? It's been almost an hour." Zhao Yufen's face darkened when she saw that she came alone, and she didn't have a good tone.
Just as Jiang Ruoxi was about to speak, she heard Jiang Jianmin speak first, "Okay, if Ruoxi can come here so late, why do you think so?"
"It doesn't matter, because it's too late and we can't wait for the bus on the road." Jiang Ruoxi tugged at the corners of her lips and sighed in her heart.
"Ruoxi, why didn't Leng Yan come back with you?" Jiang Jianmin said angrily.
Jiang Ruoxi was startled. The person they wanted to see should be Leng Yan and not her?
"He was on a business trip recently." Jiang Ruoxi made an excuse. She didn't know where he went. Only this excuse could make sense. She definitely couldn't say that she didn't have any information about Leng Yan.
Lei Yuting looked at Jiang Ruoxi with a slightly evasive look on her face. She didn't tell the truth, but what was the real situation? Did Leng Yan and Ye Zilin go out as a couple again? Or, even Jiang Ruoxi herself didn't know Leng Yan.
Where is Yan now?
"Oh, he's on a business trip. When will he come back?" Jiang Jianmin looked a little anxious.
Jiang Ruoxi shook her head, "I'm not sure when he comes back."
"Ruoxi, come to the study with me!" Jiang Jianmin stood up and walked towards the study.
The two of them sat face to face on a chair next to the study, with two cups of tea on the table. "Ruoxi, this time, can you help dad again, okay?"
"Dad, what happened? Is it the company's business?" Jiang Ruoxi looked at Jiang Jianmin's slumped face and asked with concern.
Jiang Jianmin hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Dad's company has a financial problem. Can you let Leng Yan help dad get through this difficulty?"
"Dad, why is this happening? Don't you have a new project in progress now? Moreover, Leng Yan already took a large amount of funds for you to recycle last time. How could it happen now?" Jiang Ruoxi asked puzzledly, although she didn't understand.
She doesn't care about the company's affairs, but the Leng family already got a lot of money last time. What's more, the company is currently working on a big project, so it's impossible for something like this to happen again!
Jiang Jianmin lowered his head and hesitated to speak.
At this time, the study door was pushed open, and Zhao Yufen walked in, "That's because your dad was defrauded of a large sum of money."
Zhao Yufen had known for a long time that Jiang Jianmin would not be able to speak, so it was better for her to speak.
"What? Cheated?" Jiang Ruoxi's face was full of surprise, "How much was it?"
"Actually, it's not much, just 80 million. Ruoxi, there's no way you won't even help your dad? To the Leng family, this little money shouldn't be anything, but if you don't help, you
Dad's company is about to go bankrupt, and if the project cannot be completed on time, it will have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages." Zhao Yufen opened her mouth as soon as she came in, and she had no choice but to take the opportunity to make a fortune.
In fact, Jiang Jianmin was just defrauded of 20 million. "Yufen, go out and I'll talk to Ruoxi."
"Isn't it the same? We are all a family. Can I bear to watch the company collapse like this?" Zhao Yufen said to Jiang Jianmin, then turned to look at Jiang Ruoxi who was full of surprise, "Ruoxi, you can give me a cold shoulder now."
Yan called and asked him to help with this. If you ask, he will definitely help."
Jiang Ruoxi was silent. Eighty million? How could she open her mouth? Could it be said that her value to the Leng family was just to continue to benefit the Jiang family?
"What? You don't want to?" When Zhao Yufen saw that she was silent, she blurted out sarcastic words, "She is indeed a married daughter. Such a big thing has happened at home now, and you are not willing to help. Husband, I think it's better to forget it!
"
"No, Mom." Jiang Ruoxi looked up. Zhao Yufen still had anger on her face. She wanted to help, but she couldn't!
"Let me think about it!" She wasn't sure, and she didn't know where Leng Yan and the others were.
Seeing that she had softened her heart, Zhao Yufen said, "If you don't want to help, I won't help. Think about it." She didn't want the company to collapse like this. If the company was gone, how would their family eat and drink well?
"Yufen, don't say that. Ruo Xi will be in trouble too." Jiang Jianmin didn't expect that Zhao Yufen would open such a big mouth. Alas, it's his own fault. If he had been more careful, he wouldn't have been defrauded of so much money in vain.
, if the project is completed, he can make a lot of money.
Jiang Ruoxi walked out of the study and walked toward the second floor. However, she met Lei Yuting at the stairs who was about to go downstairs. "Ruoxi, are you okay?"
Her face was frighteningly pale, and her steps seemed a little frivolous, as if she was about to faint at any moment.
"I'm fine." Jiang Ruoxi shook her head and forced a smile, then walked around him and walked up the stairs to the second floor.
Lei Yuting turned to look at her, with a burst of sadness in his heart. Of course he knew why Jiang Jianmin and Zhao Yufen came back to her. If he could help, Ruoxi wouldn't be so worried.
Just as he was about to turn around and walk downstairs, he heard a sound behind him and Jiang Ruoxi fainted in the corridor.
