Chapter 78: Did You Drink?
"But..." Shen Hanxing hesitated and said, "Auntie, I’ll tell you the truth. Please don’t laugh at me. It is the first time I’ve spent so much money. I’m uncertain. Why don’t you take me to the company to take a look before investing?"
A petty and cautious fool!
Ji Mei cursed in her heart and hesitated a little. That foreign trade company was almost an empty shell. To suck more blood from the JI Corporation and rationalize the money she had swindled. The company had become a tool for her to launder money. There were too many loopholes in the company, and it was not suitable to visit.
However, thinking of the 50 million and the quota of the black card, Ji Mei hesitated. In the end, greed had gained the upper hand. What would a young lady who had not graduated from high school know? The company was full of trusted confidants as long as they worked together to fool Shen Hanxing. They would be able to scam some money from Shen Hanxing.
With that thought in mind, Ji Mei nodded and agreed, "Alright, but only you and I can know about this. Don’t tell anyone else, not even Ji Yan."
She was afraid that Shen Hanxing would get suspicious. Ji Mei added, "I’m telling you so much because I like you. A woman has to have some private money to protect herself and not reveal it even to her husband. A woman can only rely on herself, understand?"
"I understand, Auntie," Shen Hanxing nodded, looking touched, "Auntie, you are so nice to me."
"Silly child, we are all family. Of course, I am nice to you."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. The atmosphere was harmonious and loving. However, Shen Hanxing explained everything to Ji Yan after that. Ji Yan was instantly angry. "I have underestimated her in the past."
He used to think that his aunt was greedy and snobbish, coaxing the Ji family to pay for the Cheng family. The Ji family did not lack money, so he was too lazy to care about this in the past. However, he did not expect the Cheng family would get greedier. Their hands were stretching out longer, and their actions were more intolerable.
"She’s not the one I’m afraid of," Shen Hanxing picked up a grape and threw it into his mouth. She said with a smile, "All of your aunt’s schemes are superficial, and I can deal with them with ease. However, that Cheng Songyang, I can’t see through him."
