My Wife is My Life!

Mother Ji smiled more amicably, “That’s right! How can 300,000 yuan a month be enough?”

Ji Qingqing finished peeling the shrimp and dipped the shrimp in the sauce. She smiled sweetly at Mother Ji and said, “The house and the construction of the house were paid by me. Father’s medical expenses were also paid by me when I went to the hospital. I didn’t make you spend a penny.”

The expression on Mother Ji’s face suddenly turned awkward.

“For an ordinary family, they would have enough food and clothing for years with 300,000 yuan. I believe our family is also considered to be an ordinary family, so it should be impossible for you to use up all the money I had sent you. You must have some money remaining in your hand. Truth to be told, I’m having a hard time in the entertainment industry right now. My assistant and managers are all depending on me to support them. In addition, the previous incident has negatively affected me a lot. I even owe other people money,” she looked at Mother Ji sincerely and said, “I will cut off the living expenses for you for a few months. I have sent many 300,000 yuan transactions to you before. You and dad should use the remaining money you have from before. Try to spend less.”

“Spend less?” Mother Ji said in a loud voice, “How should I spend less money?”

Ji Qingqing calmly tried to reason with her, “Usually, only you and father would be at home. Even if you have fish and meat for every meal, you will spend at most 100 yuan daily for food. You should have a few hundred thousand yuan left from all the money I’ve sent you, right? The remaining money should be enough for your daily necessities.”

“Who told you that I still have a few hundred thousand yuan remaining? Don’t I need to buy clothes? Don’t I need to buy jewelry? And your dad, this…how can that be enough?!”

“There is nothing I can do. I’m in a very difficult situation right now, so I can’t give you that much money. Even if you try to force me, it won’t work because I don’t have money. There are many people that I need to bribe in the entertainment industry. I don’t have any surplus money in my hands.”

“No!”

Ji Qingqing said helplessly, “I don’t have a choice either. You can wait for me to become popular again someday, but right now, I don’t have any money to give you.”

“You!” Mother Ji looked at her resentfully and gritted her teeth. “Are you trying to kill me and your father? Have you ever thought about your brother and sister?”

“Of course, I have thought of them! As their older sister, how can I fail them by not paying their tuition? I will pay their tuition for them and I will give them two thousand yuan each month as their living expenses. You don’t need to worry about them.”

Yu Yang, who was merely a bystander watching the show, became more and more interested in the show. He almost stood up and applauded her.

Ji Qingqing was different from five years ago. At that time, she was as pale and thin as paper. She only cared for her family and never for herself. Just because he promised to pay her father’s medical expenses, she was willing to have a relationship with him. At that time, she regarded her family as the most important thing in her world. But now, she didn’t seem to care about them as much as before.

Ji Qingqing peeled a few more shrimps and looked at Mother Ji. Mother Ji looked like she wanted to scream at her, but at the same time, couldn’t because Ji Qingqing was their only source of income. Ji Qingqing’s mood improved significantly.

“I’m full now. Mom, if you don’t have anything else to discuss with me, then I’ll be leaving first. You should enjoy your meal.”

She got up and planned to leave.

Yu Yang also stood up and said, “Auntie, I’m full too. It’s getting late now, and I still have a few matters to attend to, so I will be leaving now.”

Mother Ji was so angry at Ji Qingqing that she lost her appetite. She looked at her and then looked at Yu Yang again. She said to Ji Qingqing, “Wait. Qingqing, you should send Yu Yang off.”

Mother Ji pulled Ji Qingqing along to send Yu Yang off, forcefully creating some alone time for them.

Ji Qingqing was too lazy to even look at him. She planned on getting in the elevator but when the elevator door opened, a person stepped out.

The person was Lu Lixing.

Ji Qingqing quickly stepped forward and grabbed his hand.

“Qingqing, wait! Who is that?”

Ji Qingqing hurriedly dragged Lu Lixing into the elevator, “Let’s hurry and leave. Don’t let them catch us, or else they will definitely pluck all your feathers until you’re bald!”

T/N: T/N: Mother Ji gave me a bad vibe in the beginning, but I prayed that I was wrong because I really wanted Ji Qingqing to have a loving family. But now, I just… *sighs* I feel bad for her. TT^TT
