Chapter 124
124 Chapter 123, Shamelessness Had No Bottom Line
Ji Zi’ang was confused, but he knew that Ji Jianguo was here to borrow money.
“We don’t have any money. You go, you go!” Ji Zi’ang continued to shout as Li Xu pulled on his arm.
Ji Yuanyuan stood beside Li Xu and sighed helplessly.
It seemed that Ji Jianguo’s shamelessness had no bottom line!
She reached out and grabbed Li Xu’s other hand. She raised her head and looked at Li Xu, “Mom, don’t lend it!”
She shook her head forcefully at Li Xu with a very serious expression.
Yes, if Ji Jianguo went to prison, it might have a certain impact on the three of them in the future. But the impact was definitely not as big as Ji Jianguo had said!
Moreover, in his previous life, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang did not walk the path of being a civil servants or a soldier, and they probably would not do so in this life.
As long as they did not choose these two paths, their parents’ criminal records would have little impact on their children.
Li Xu looked at Ji Yuanyuan’s face and felt conflicted for a moment.
“You are just a child. What do you know? Li Xu, don’t listen to your child. Think carefully, is money more important or is the child’s future more important?”
Is money more important or is the child more important? Li Xu didn’t even need to think about this question. The child was naturally more important!
If she could exchange money for the children’s future stability, she was willing.
“How much do you want?” Li Xu asked tentatively.
Ji Yuanyuan anxiously pulled Li Xu’s hand.
A person like Ji Jianguo couldn’t give him hope.
If there was a first time, there would definitely be a second time.
“A hundred… A hundred thousand!” Ji Jianguo said.
This number shocked Li Xu. She looked at Ji Jianguo in disbelief, “What did you say?”
When she asked, she even rubbed her ears.
She was afraid that she had misheard.
“I said 100,000!” After saying it once, Ji Jianguo’s tone became even more determined.
He had borrowed 100,000 yuan from the bank. As long as Li Xu helped him pay back the principal, he would be fine. He would think of a way to get the interest.
“Ji Jianguo, are you crazy? Do I look like I have 100,000 Yuan?” Li Xu was so angry that her entire body was trembling.
At first, she thought that Ji Jianguo would only ask her for a few thousand Yuan. 10,000 to 20,000 Yuan was already the limit.
However, she did not expect that he would actually ask for 100,000 Yuan!
“If you don’t have 100,000 Yuan, 50,000 or 80,000 Yuan will do. I’ll think of something else. We’re all doing this for the children. Don’t you still have a house? You can go to the bank and get a mortgage…”
“If I have 100,000 Yuan, I’ll find someone to kill you first!” Li Xu was so angry that she could not care about anything else.
Initially, she did not want to say such words to Ji Jianguo in front of the children.
However, she was too emotional to care about anything else.
She immediately picked up the broom and hit Ji Jianguo.
Seeing this, Ji Zi’ang naturally did not want to be outdone. Since he did not have anything handy, he put his hands on his waist and scolded, “In your dreams, my mother will not give you money. If you dare to come again, I will let my Uncle Zhang and my Second Uncle beat you to death…”
Seeing Ji Jianguo flee, Ji Zi’ang suddenly thought of something. He rushed into the shop and took out the big red bag that Ji Jianguo had left behind.
He raised his hand and threw it far away, “Take your torn clothes and wear them yourself, we don’t want them!”
Hearing this, Ji Jianguo turned to take a look. Seeing that Li Xu and the others had not caught up, he turned around, picked up the clothes on the ground, and ran away.
She had also spent quite a few Yuans! If they did not want it, he would give them to his nieces and nephews to wear, so they could do him a favor!
Looking at Ji Jianguo’s back view, Li Xu sat on the ground as if she had lost some strength.
She had originally thought that they had finally gotten rid of Ji Jianguo. They could finally live a peaceful life, but who would have thought that he actually owed a debt, divorced, and haunted them.
When would this day end!
Li Xu covered her face and wanted to cry.
The current Ji Jianguo had no job, no money, and no family. He had nothing and was willing to risk it all.
As for her, she had three children, a house, a store, and Zhang Kun. If she really acted shamelessly, she really couldn’t beat Ji Jianguo.
Their positions suddenly fell.
A year ago, she was the one who could throw caution to the wind. For five thousand Yuan, she rushed into Ji Jianguo’s unit. After receiving the money, she brought the children out to buy things that afternoon.
Thinking about what happened at that time, she wanted to laugh again.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Xu’s crying and laughing appearance and worriedly hugged her neck. Her voice was a little choked up, “Mom, it’s okay, we’re not afraid!”
This was the first time Ji Zi’ang had seen Li Xu in such a vulnerable state.
He had been holding it in, but when he saw Ji Yuanyuan hug her, he could not hold it in any longer. He hugged her too and cried, “Mom, don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you!”
Ji Zixuan stood at the side, his eyes red.
Seeing that Ji Zixuan had not come over, Ji Yuanyuan reached out his hand, “Big Brother…”
Ji Zixuan had finally come over.
The four of them hugged each other and buried their heads in tears.
The streets at night were quiet and no one passed by.
The moon in the sky also quietly hid in the clouds, as if it could not bear to see the current scene.
…
After crying, the pent-up emotions were mostly released.
Li Xu was also afraid of scaring the children, so she quickly got up, cleaned up the shop, and went home.
At night, Ji Yuanyuan tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep. She was thinking about what happened during the day.
She was afraid that Li Xu would really take things too hard and give Ji Jianguo money.
After thinking for a while, she still hugged the pillow and went to Li Xu’s bedroom.
Li Xu was still awake. When she saw Ji Yuanyuan coming over, she quickly lifted the blanket and said, “Come in quickly!”
When Li Yong came over, the mother and daughter often slept in the same bed, So Ji Yuanyuan easily got on the bed and nestled in Li Xu’s arms.
Li Xu hugged her and asked her in a low voice, “Are you scared today?”
Last time, she did not cry even after she gave Yuanyuan a slap, but today, this child cried very hard.
Ji Yuanyuan shook his head and said in a low voice, “I’m not scared, I just feel sorry for you. I want to cry whenever I see you cry!”
Ji Yuanyuan’s words immediately made Li Xu’s eyes turn a little sour.
No matter how hard or tiring it was, as long as she heard her daughter’s words, everything would be fine.
“In the future, if he comes again, you can call Uncle Zhang Kun.” Ji Yuanyuan gave Li Xu an idea, “Uncle Zhang is taller and stronger than him. He will definitely be afraid.”
Li Xu could not help but laugh, “Got it, you don’t have to worry about such things. Hurry up and sleep, you have to go to school tomorrow!”
Ji Yuanyuan saw that Li Xu was laughing, so he became even more excited. He moved around in the quilt and moved to Li Xu’s ear.
His two small hands held Li Xu’s ear and his mouth moved closer. He asked in a low voice, “Mom, how much money do we have in our bank now?”
