Chapter 119: Misunderstanding Got Out of Hand

  He even suspected that he had misheard and asked in a daze: "Little sister, what did you just say?"

  "I said, I don't want to be with him..." Zhang Qianqian didn't have the courage to say it again, and changed the subject, "Brother, you told me that you recently became a driver, is it just for driving him around?"

  "Yes! His name is Li Yi, my middle school classmate. Now I'm driving for him." Zhang Xiaoliang nodded.

  Zhang Qianqian's expression was complex, she took a deep breath of cool air and asked again: "Is this job very important to you?"

  "Little sister, what do you want to say?! Today is really strange." Zhang Xiaoliang furrowed his brow and said, "You also know that I used to be a hoodlum and couldn't earn much money. Since meeting Brother Yi, I've turned over a new leaf and my salary has increased a lot, enough to support the family. If I lose this job, I'm afraid we won't even have enough money for you to finish high school."

  Upon hearing this, Zhang Qianqian made a silent decision and said, "Brother, I know what to do now. You've contributed so much to the family over the years, and I'm not young anymore. It's time for me to do something for the family too." She quickly opened the car door, got in the back seat, and kept glancing at Li Yi, finally sighing and turning her head to look out the window at a seemingly random spot.

  Zhang Xiaoliang didn't know what was wrong with his little sister, patted her head, and after getting in the car asked: "Yi Ge, should we go to your place first?"

  "Let's send her back first! Don't delay her studies." Li Yi was very envious of students with good grades. After all, for the sake of his beloved girl, he had given up many things and his former dreams were lost in vain. If it wasn't for accidentally obtaining the Heavenly Dao Jade Seal, he might still be living a life without dreams or pursuits like before.

  Zhang Xiaoliang nodded and started the car, quickly heading towards Luyang District.

  Half an hour later, the car arrived at a slum area. After Zhang Xiaoliang got off the car, he said to Li Yi: "Brother Yi, I'll send my sister back home first, you wait here for a while."

  The houses here are still old tile-roofed houses from the 80s. In today's era of rapid economic development, many such houses have been demolished and replaced with high-rise buildings. However, due to its remote location, no one has come to invest and develop this area yet. The people living here are getting poorer and poorer, and many are busy just trying to make ends meet, but can only solve the most basic problem of food and clothing.

  After the two got off the car, they quickly walked home. When they arrived at the door, Zhang Xiaoliang handed her a package wrapped in newspaper and said: "Little sister, take this money back first, I have something to do later and will come back home late. Remember, don't let Dad and Mom see it, or they'll worry again."

  Zhang Qianqian took over the newspaper, simply touched it, and exclaimed: "Brother, this is all money?"

  "Yes! This is the money Brother Yi gave you." Zhang Xiaoliang replied.

  Zhang Qianqian thought of what the other person had said before getting on the car, she took a deep breath and asked: "Is this 100,000 yuan given to me by him?"

  "Hmm!" Zhang Xiaoliang nodded and said.

  Zhang Qianqian smiled bitterly and said: "You're just his driver, why did he give you so much money?"

  "Little sister, didn't I just say that this money is for you?" Zhang Xiaoliang explained, "Yi Ge knows our family's situation, this money is for your tuition."

  "Is it really just going to school?" Zhang Qianqian said disbelievingly.

  Zhang Xiaoliang's eyebrows were tightly locked, he looked at his sister and said word by word: "Little sister, what exactly do you want to say?"

  "Brother, I'm not a kid anymore, why do you have to deceive me?" Zhang Qianqian said with a complex expression. "Although I haven't left school yet, I know many things already. We don't have any relationship, so why did she give me so much money? If he wants to sleep with me, just tell me directly and I'll definitely agree..."

  "Ah!" This time, Zhang Xiaoliang heard clearly and exclaimed in surprise, "Little sister, have you gone mad?"

  "I'm not crazy, I'm clearer than ever." Zhang Qianqian showed a desperate expression and continued, "One hundred thousand yuan, it's worth buying me for one night. If you can let me finish high school, you can stabilize your job. Don't mention that he gave me so much money, even if he gave me ten thousand yuan, I would still give him my first time."

  Zhang Xiaoliang, even if he was stupid, knew what his little sister was saying at this time, and angrily said: "You don't study hard every day, thinking about all kinds of messy things, is Brother Yi that kind of person?"

  "Isn't it?" Zhang Qianqian retorted, "Didn't you just ask him whose house he went to first?"

  "I'm telling you, I don't even know how to explain it to you." Zhang Xiaoliang said with a sullen expression, "He gave me this money long ago. Do you think he could have bought your company for one night without seeing your face? Besides, Yi Ge already has a girlfriend, don't be naive and think he's going to pursue you."

  "What's impossible, every day after school, many luxury cars come to our school, and those people don't have girlfriends? " Zhang Qianqian retorted, "I heard them say that some of them even have wives and children, why do they spend money to find us Lolita-like girls if not for seeking a different kind of stimulation?"

  "Shut up! Did you say that?" Zhang Xiaoliang shouted, feeling that his once extremely simple little sister's thoughts were no longer healthy.

  "Alright, I'll shut up, you tell me a time! I'll give it to him for the first time." Zhang Qianqian said with a huff.

  Zhang Xiaoliang snorted and glared at his sister, saying: "What are you talking about? Yi Ge isn't that kind of person, he's not interested in a little loli like you."

  "Brother, since you put it that way, I don't want to say anything else either. Let's just hope so." Zhang Qianqian said, and then turned around and walked back home with her head down.

  Watching his sister's back as she walked away, Zhang Xiaoliang felt even more depressed and finally let out a sigh before heading out of the alley.

  When he arrived at the car, Zhang Xiaoliang didn't mention what had just happened, thinking it was just a misunderstanding.

  "Brother Yi, are you going home now?" Zhang Xiaoliang started the car and quickly drove forward.

  Li Yi nodded and said: "You also know where my home is. Don't drive into the neighborhood later, just stop outside!"

  "Alright." A few minutes later, the Mercedes-Benz stopped outside the residential area. Zhang Xiaoliang said, "Yi Ge, do you need me to pick you up tomorrow morning?"

  "No need, don't come to pick me up without my phone." After Li Yi got off the car, he walked towards home, and when he arrived, his parents were both there.

  Seeing her son return, Mrs. Li hurriedly asked: "How was your play these few days?"

  "Not bad," Li Yi replied.

  "As long as you had fun, how was your last exam?" Mr. Li still cared about his son's grades.

  Li Yi pulled out a transcript from his pocket and handed it to his parents, saying: "Dad, Mom, here's the transcript. I'm a bit tired, so I'll head back and rest first."

  In this case, every time Li Yi takes out his report card, he says it once. This time, the parents also think that Li Yi's exam results are not ideal and deliberately find an excuse to leave. Mr. Li's expression is somewhat dull, but he still picks up the report card and looks at it. After looking for half a day, he can't find his son's name and becomes puzzled. "Wife, you come and take a look too."

  "What's wrong?" asked Li Mu, picking up the report card.

  "How come I didn't see my son's name?" said Mr. Li, looking up from the bottom again, except for the top few names, he had looked at the rest of the rankings countless times.

  Mrs. Li also found it strange and looked at it carefully again, but the result was still the same.

  The two of them looked at each other for a while, suddenly thought of something, exchanged a glance, and looked up together.

  The next moment, the two saw Li Yi, who was ranked first. Surprised at the same time, the hand holding the transcript also trembled.

  "Old man, did you see? Li Yi got the first place, the first in the whole class." Mrs. Li said excitedly, no matter whose parents they are, they all hope their sons will become dragons and their daughters will become phoenixes.

  Li's father was equally excited, his eyes brimming with tears, saying: "My son has made a name for himself, he finally has made a name for himself."

  "This is great, we don't have to worry about him not getting into a good university." Li's mother said incoherently, "I knew he was capable, I knew he could get into a good university..."

  In the living room, Li Yi heard his parents' conversation, and his eyes also became moist.

  A moment later, wiping away the tears from his eyes, Li Yi clenched his fist and said: "Dad, Mom, I didn't understand things before and disappointed you. From now on, I won't let you worry about my future again." As he spoke, he picked up the textbook on the table and started reading it again, only to find that high school textbooks were no longer difficult for him.

  "There's time to buy some university books." Li Yi closed his textbook, picked up his cup and walked out into the living room.

  Li's mother came over and said, "Xiao Yi, what do you want to eat tomorrow? Mom will buy it for you."

  "Mom, just have a regular meal." Li Yi turned around and walked into the room, but after only a few steps, his phone suddenly rang.

  The room was unusually quiet, with the ringing sound echoing in the living room. Li Yi reacted quickly and used his spiritual power to hang up the phone.

  But the parents still heard it, Li Mu frowned and said: "Old man, who called you so late?"

  "Let me see." Li Mu picked up her old Nokia phone and took a look. "That's strange, there are no missed calls!"

  "Isn't it the phone?" Mrs. Li asked, "What's that sound?"

  "I don't know either," replied Mr. Li.

  Mrs. Li suddenly thought of something and looked at her husband, asking: "Tell me the truth, did you buy a new cell phone behind my back?"

  "My wife, I put my monthly salary in your hands, where do I have the money to buy a new phone?" Mr. Li complained, "Besides, I'm not a fashionable person, this phone is not broken, why should I buy a new one?"

  "That's also possible, maybe I misheard it just now!" said Li Mu to herself.

  Neither of them noticed that Li Yi hastily walked into the room, nor did they expect Li Yi to have a mobile phone.

  Upon entering the room, Li Yi dialed the number and said in a depressed tone: "Do you want to kill me?"

  "I couldn't bear to let you die, if you died, wouldn't I have to follow you in death?" The other end of the phone line transmitted Su Mengxi's giggles, and then her tone changed, saying "Tonight I helped you get so much money, how are you going to thank me?"

  "It's actually not a lot of money, just tens of millions." Li Yi replied.

  "Hmph! Their bank accounts are all under my investigation, and you're telling me there's not much money?" Su Mengxi said, "At least one of them has over a hundred million, what do you plan to do with this money?"

  "Take it and invest for me!" Li Yi didn't know how to use the money either, if he kept it in his hands all the time, it would be equivalent to devaluing constantly.

  "Tomorrow you give me the money and I'll help you open a pharmaceutical company." Su Mengxi said something that Li Yi completely didn't expect.

  Li Yi was taken aback and said: "Wait a minute, what did you say?"

  "Kai Zhi Pharmaceutical Company." Su Mengxi said.

  Li Yi was at a loss for words and said: "I didn't graduate from medical school, why did you start a pharmaceutical company? Do you want me to make fake medicine?"

  "Hehe! You're unbeatable when you're clever, and quite lovable when you're silly." Su Mengxi smiled, "You can't make medicine, but you can refine dan medicine. Once you refine the medicinal pills, can't you sell them? I've already thought it through - if you really can refine something like a Rejuvenating Dan, it'll be hard not to make money!"

  Li Yi then said a few more sweet words to Su Mengxi before hanging up the phone.

  Look at the time, it's almost twelve o'clock. Li Yi had just lain down on the bed to rest when his mobile phone rang again.

  He picked up his phone and took a look at the number. Li Yi was so depressed that he couldn't help but ask, "You missed me too, didn't you?"
