Chapter 111
“Don’t believe that just because you entered the entertainment industry that you can become successful and rich. Look at Yu Yang’s family. His family owns a few companies and has a net worth of more than two billion yuan. Did you know that? If you marry him, then you won’t have to worry about food or clothing for the latter half of your life!”
“I don’t have to worry about food or clothing now.”
Mother Ji stared at her, “Do you know what it means to not have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of your life? You have never seen a rich person like him, nor have you experienced the life of a wealthy person. Let me tell you if you marry him, not only do you not have to worry about food and clothing, but you will be living a comfortable and happy life as the wife of a wealthy man! I’m your mother, so I’m doing this for your sake. Do you think I would hurt you?”
Ji Qingqing chuckled lightly and said nothing.
Mother Ji was so excited and anxious about Yu Yang because he was worth two billion yuan. Ji Qingqing wondered if her “mother” would ascend to heaven from happiness if she knew that Lu Lixing was worth over 100 billion yuan?
“You must seize Yu Yang and hold onto him firmly. As long as you marry him, you will no longer have to work hard in the entertainment industry. You will be able to live a good life in the future.”
The more Mother Ji talked, the less her plan interested Ji Qingqing.
She knew that mothers wanted their daughters to marry well so that they won’t have to worry about food and clothing in the latter half of their life. But did she have to continuously push her towards Yu Yang just because he was rich?
“Even if he’s rich, the money still belongs to him. Besides, I’m not interested in him. Mom, let’s not talk about this again.”
Mother Ji’s smile fell when she realized that Ji Qingqing was firm on pursuing Yu Yang. She lowered her voice and sharply said, “Ji Qingqing, everything would be fine if you agreed on this matter. But if you don’t agree, then don’t ever address me as your mother again in your life!”
Ji Qingqing smiled, why do all parents like to threaten their children by telling them to sever their relationship if they don’t do as they’re told?
“Mom, I’m already an adult. Is it appropriate for you to threaten me like this?”
She was prepared to leave.
“Auntie, what’s wrong?” Yu Yang came out of the bathroom as he smiled at them arrogantly.
“…nothing is wrong, Qingqing just feels a little unwell.” Mother Ji grabbed her arm and dragged her to the dining table. She sat down in front of the dining table and whispered, “Sit down and eat the meal. Don’t throw a tantrum!”
“The red braised pork is ready!” Father Ji came out of the kitchen with a bowl of piping hot braised pork.
Ji Qingqing was just about to retort her when her phone rang.
Lu Lixing had called her.
“Did you arrive home yet?”
Ji Qingqing glanced at Mother Ji and said, “I’ve arrived, but I’m returning now.”
“What are you talking about? You’re not going back!” Mother Ji loudly said, “After the meal is over, you will go shopping with Yu Yang!”
Lu Lixing obviously heard Mother Ji’s shouting, “Who is Yu Yang?”
“It’s no one. I’ll call you later.” Ji Qingqing wanted to hang up the phone.
Mother Ji seemed to have realized something based on the way Ji Qingqing was talking to Lu Lixing. She grabbed Ji Qingqing’s phone and said, “Hey. I am Qingqing’s mother. Let me tell you this, my family’s Qingqing already has a boyfriend. He is the son of the President of Zhengxin International. Don’t even think about being together with Qingqing! Don’t contact her anymore in the future. Do you understand?”
Lu Lixing raised an eyebrow and looked at his phone screen for a while without speaking.
“What are you doing?!” JI Qingqing grabbed her phone back from Mother Ji.
“What are YOU doing? Yu Yang is such a fine young man, yet you won’t give him that time of the day. Instead, you insist on having a relationship with these unpromising filth from outside! Tell me, which one of the men you dated in these past years that are even comparable to Yu Yang?”
Yu Yang smiled, “Auntie, don’t talk like this. Qingqing has good eyesight, so I’m sure the person she likes won’t be that lacking.”
“Do you think I don’t know her well? All of them are repulsive filths! None of them are decent!”
Ji Qingqing glared at Yu Yang and turned to talk to Lu Lixing, “Sorry, before…”
“I understand.” Lu Lixing chuckled lightly. His chuckle sent chills down Ji Qingqing’s spine. “There is a man named Yu Yang in your house and your parents really like him, am I correct?”
“I didn’t even think…”
“Don’t worry. I will arrive in half an hour. Wait for me.”
