Chapter 21 What if the goods can’t be salvaged?
This must be Yan Ruxin's main purpose. She wants to repeat the same old trick and get money from Li Jingyi, the prodigal son.
A total gold digger!
Li Jingyi smiled and said, "Supporting the welfare home will benefit the present and future generations. I, Li, have no choice but to contribute money and effort as before."
The prodigal son was as forthright as ever. When it came to money, it was like a hair on his head, which he would casually blow up into the tens of thousands.
Xu Xingzhu really wanted to lift up his crown and take a look. This man's cerebellum must have been wrapped up by the old woman's little footsteps.
Anyone can ask him for money.
Li Jingyi didn't wait for any movement from behind, but simply turned around and looked at her with burning eyes.
"Mrs. Li, what do you think about this?"
Hearing the call of "Mrs. Li", Yan Ruxin's heart felt like it was scratched by a sharp weapon and was in so much pain that it was smoking.
Xu Xingzhu glanced at Li Jingyi.
He walked up from behind Li Jingyi and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
At first glance, the two seem to be a perfect match.
Xu Xingzhu looked at Yan Ruxin and said, "Our Jingyi is such a bad guy. Since we got married, he has asked me to take care of all the big and small things in the family. He doesn't care about anything about money. I have to manage his money for my husband."
"I have no objection to the expansion of the welfare home, but I can't just deposit the money into the public account. I have to supervise the qualifications of the projects to be funded before I can allocate funds. Deputy Director Yan, what do you think?"
After hearing what Xu Xingzhu said, Yan Ruxin broke out in cold sweat on her palms.
There is no qualification at all, and the welfare home has no plans to expand at all.
She just made up an excuse to ask Li Jingyi for money.
In the past, whenever she complained to Li Jingyi in a coquettish manner, Li Jingyi would give her money without saying a word.
Now that he has married such a wife, it is not as easy to cheat her as before.
If Xu Xingzhu investigated, then this time and the countless times before would be exposed.
Yan Ruxin suppressed her fear and replied calmly.
"Special Assistant, this is not urgent. Dean Li just asked me to say hello to Brother Yi in advance. I will report to you if there is any progress."
Xu Xingzhu patted her shoulder gently, showing that the relationship between the two was extremely intimate.
"Okay, let's talk about it when Dean Li needs money. We're going to have dinner. Do you want to join us?"
Yan Ruxin shook her head without hesitation.
Afterwards, Xu Xingzhu drove away with Li Jingyi.
Li Jingyi drove the car, looking ahead intently.
Xu Xingzhu looked at his profile and saw that this prodigal son had a bit of a mean look in his mind.
"Why are you staring at me? Am I handsome?"
"He is a bit handsome, but his brain is not a bit bad either. We agreed to keep our distance from each other, but why do you always act cool in front of others and make me clean up your mess?"
Li Jingyi turned the steering wheel and turned a corner, and Xu Xingzhu quickly grabbed the handrail.
"Damn it, driving so fast."
When the car tilted just now, she almost leaned on his shoulder.
Xu Xingzhu suspected that the rascal must have done it on purpose, but she couldn't drive and couldn't produce any evidence.
Li Jingyi seemed to be enjoying himself very much. Chatting with Xu Xingzhu was a kind of relaxation he had never experienced before.
"I don't have any feelings for Yan Ruxin. I only funded them out of consideration for Hahaxiao and the children in the welfare home. Don't think the wrong way."
Xu Xingzhu smiled and said, "No need to explain, I won't think of it in the wrong way."
"Open the front drawer." Li Jingyi called her.
Xu Xingzhu was stunned for a moment, and then really opened it.
There is a wad of money inside.
It is estimated to be around 3000 yuan.
"You want to bribe me again? Come on."
Without waiting for Li Jingyi to say anything, she grabbed it and stuffed it into her small purse.
The small handbag suddenly expanded like a giant crocodile and could hardly be closed even with the automatic buckle.
"From now on, when your husband is on the front line, you will block the arrows for me. It will be 3000 yuan for each time. Anyway, you are a woman who loves money more than life. How about it?"
Xu Xingzhu nodded vigorously: "Okay, I can do this. Please rest assured, Mr. Li, I will definitely complete the task."
The car turned into the Garden Hotel.
When we entered the "888" VIP box, Li Min, Cui San and others were already waiting.
When they walked into the box, Xu Xingzhu pulled her hand out from Li Jingyi's arm.
When they saw Xu Xingzhu coming, Li Min and Cui San's faces suddenly changed.
"Sister-in-law, why are you drinking with Brother Yi instead of staying at home to take care of your baby?"
Cui San spoke very directly, and his eyes glanced at Xu Xingzhu's belly inadvertently.
Xu Xingzhu's outfit today was a bit loose and didn't show her figure, so no one would suspect that she was not pregnant.
Li Jingyi pulled out a chair for her and sat in the seat next to the middle.
She didn't look at Cui San, but only looked at the food on the table. It was not bad, and there were some of her favorite dishes.
"Boss Cui, don't you welcome me? Why do you always look so sad and unhappy every time you see me?"
Cui San was so angry that he grabbed the tablecloth underneath him, and his smile was uglier than crying.
"No, sister-in-law, you are joking. How could I not welcome you?"
Today's dinner was organized by Cui San's group. Li Min was grateful to Cui San and helped him out.
"Don't get me wrong, sister-in-law. Third brother has no ill intentions. He just speaks too bluntly."
Xu Xingzhu sneered: "Do you have to be honest to show me your displeasure? What's wrong with me and my husband going out to eat? My husband didn't say anything, but the nosy people got anxious."
Li Jingyi deliberately hugged her gently and comforted her: "Okay, honey, don't be angry, or you may hurt the baby in your belly."
Li Min and Cui San pretended to be stupid and laughed.
With Xu Xingzhu around, Cui San couldn't display his skills to their full potential, and his speech became extremely unnatural.
The whole process was like sitting on pins and needles, and he kept kicking Li Min's feet.
Let Li Min put the important things on the table and talk about them clearly.
Li Min had no choice but to pick up a large black bag on the chair next to him and walked straight to Li Jingyi.
It was placed on an empty chair next to it. You couldn't see what was inside, but it had clear edges and corners and was square.
Li Jingyi played dumb and could neither see nor hear.
"Brother Yi, today is the last day. If I can't get the goods out, they will be auctioned off by the customs. I will lose everything. Can you help me one last time?"
Cui San chimed in: "Yes, Brother Yi, only you can help me with this. We are classmates and childhood friends. We should help each other when we are in trouble. As long as we get through this difficult time, I will never cause trouble for Brother Yi in the future."
Li Min pushed his chair closer and whispered into Li Jingyi's ear.
"Brother Yi, this is 8 yuan. I'll give it to you."
Xu Xingzhu heard it.
What kind of friend or brother is this? He is simply a troublemaker. Knowing that it is an illegal and criminal act, he still openly asked her husband to do it.
Xu Xingzhu stood up slowly and deliberately held her stomach in front of Cui San and Li Min.
