After the mother was reborn, she was deeply involved in the battle for favor between her sons

After a few days, Ji Zeqiu did not receive a call from his agent, nor did he see any negative news about himself in the media.

I thought this matter should be over.

However, when he looked at his account, he found that not a cent of the money he sent for social activities had been deducted.

"Brother Zhao, did the company pay for the public relations fees this time?" Ji Zeqiu asked.

"No, it was President Xie who took care of it." The agent seemed to be still busy with other artists, and the sound of the set could be heard over the phone.

"Xie Changyan?" Ji Zeqiu's voice was a little surprised.

"Yes, Mr. Xie invited their boss to dinner. It just so happened that their boss also had something to ask Mr. Xie, so both parties did a favor and let this matter go."

"By the way, what is your relationship with Mr. Xie? He never interfered in the affairs of artists before, but this time he actually went to negotiate with their boss for you." The agent's gossipy heart was burning.

Yesterday in the elevator, Xie Changyan was very tolerant of Ji Zeqiu's cold words.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they are father and son.

If the ages didn't match, he would even suspect whether Ji Zeqiu was Mr. Xie's illegitimate son.

The agent was still asking Ji Zeqiu, and when Ji Zeqiu raised his eyes, he saw Xie Changyan, and his expression was a little complicated for a moment.

He hung up the phone before the agent finished speaking.

"What are you doing here again?" Ji Zeqiu asked unhappily.

"Oh, I came here to ask you for the 50 million." Xie Changyan said in a calm voice.

Ji Zeqiu's eyes widened instantly, "Why!"

He has the nerve to ask for 50 million?

The Xie family is wealthy, so how could they be short of this little money?

"Is there anything wrong with collecting the public relations fee?" Xie Changyan raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Didn't you say he is my father? Isn't it only natural for you to help me solve a problem? How can you ask me for money?" Ji Zeqiu said angrily.

"Oh?" Xie Changyan looked over with interest, "When you were about to pay, you admitted that I was your father?"

Ji Zeqiu's eyes flickered, he looked away, and whispered back, "I didn't admit it."

Xie Changyan smiled and asked, "I heard you went to the 4S store in the north of the city? Is the racing car still there?"

After a while, Ji Zeqiu said in a muffled voice: "...still there."

“It should be closed now, right?”

"Um……"

"But you probably don't have any interest in the racing car right now, so just ask the manager to scrap it later."

Ji Zeqiu pursed his lips and said nothing.

After leaving the 4S shop that day, he asked someone to repair and maintain the racing car again.

After all, it was a gift from his father.

He didn't want to just throw it away.

Ji Zeqiu clenched his hands and glanced at Xie Changyan quietly, only to see him sitting on the sofa with his legs bent leisurely.

His expression was a little complicated for a moment.

Could this man really be his father?

Xie Changyan raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist, then looked upstairs nonchalantly, "Why hasn't your mother come down yet? I'll go check on her."

Xie Changyan put his legs away and just stood up, Ji Zeqiu opened his arms to stop him as if by reflex, "Don't even think about getting close to Lin Xu under my nose!"

Xie Changyan clicked his tongue, "I can understand that you are on guard against outsiders, but why are you on guard against me?"

"I don't care who you are, even if you are my father!" Ji Zeqiu snorted.

Xie Changyan: "In that case, return the 50 million first."

Ji Zeqiu: “…”

Ever since Xiao Yu confessed his love to her last time, Ji Yuqiao saw Xiao Yu in school from time to time.

When she was in class, she would see Xiao Yu sitting in the classroom; when she went to the library, she would see Xiao Yu sitting opposite her and putting a bottle of mineral water next to her hand; even when she was waiting for the rain to stop in the corridor, she could see Xiao Yu.

"Are you going to the school gate? Let me take you there." Xiao Yu held an umbrella over her head.

Ji Yuqiao frowned and looked at him coldly, "What do you want to do?"

Xiao Yu was silent for a moment, "I'm sorry, I just hope you can give me a chance, I..."

The words have not yet fallen.

A boy came over with an umbrella, and the umbrella also fell on Ji Yuqiao's head. There was a hint of apology on his face, "Am I late?"

"No, I'm just in time." Ji Yuqiao immediately crawled under Zhao Jiayan's umbrella and pulled him out of the school in a hurry.

Looking at the two of them walking away, Xiao Yu clenched the umbrella in his hand, and his face turned a little paler.

After getting into Zhao Jiayan's car, Ji Yuqiao shook off the rain on her body and said, "I'm so sorry that I asked you to come pick me up."

"It's okay. It was me who suggested going to the library together. It's only natural for me to come and pick you up." Zhao Jiayan had a faint smile on his lips.

Because the school is going to hold a math competition, Ji Yuqiao has been worried about the competition recently and feels a little panicked.

After Zhao Jiayan knew about this, he asked her to go to the city library to study together.

Ji Yuqiao thought about how well he had done in previous national competitions, so he agreed without thinking.

The city library is not as crowded as the one in school, and there is a lot of open space.

They found a random seat and sat down.

Except for Ji Yuqiao occasionally asking him some questions, she was very quiet at other times.

As soon as Zhao Jiayan raised his eyes, he could see her serious face.

She seemed to be completely absorbed in her own thoughts, the pen in her hand flying across the paper, and she was deaf to everything around her.

Her fair skin looks even more smooth under the indoor lights, and her delicate facial features are as beautiful and radiant as spring flowers.

Zhao Jiayan stared at her cheek in a daze, his heart seemed to skip a beat, causing an inexplicable throbbing.

As if noticing his gaze, Ji Yuqiao raised her head in confusion and looked at him.

The moment his eyes met hers, Zhao Jiayan's heart seemed to be shocked by an electric current. His heart, which had been stagnant for a second, suddenly began beating violently and his breathing became more rapid.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me?" Ji Yuqiao asked puzzledly.

"I..." Zhao Jiayan paused, thinking of Xiao Yu whom he met at school just now, "Is Xiao Yu pursuing you?"

Hearing this name, Ji Yuqiao frowned subconsciously, "I don't know, maybe."

Zhao Jiayan hesitated: "Then how do you treat him..."

Ji Yuqiao's tone became a little colder, "I don't like him."

Zhao Jiayan breathed a sigh of relief and asked directly, "Do you have someone you like?"

"I've been busy with the competition lately, so I don't have the time to like anyone." Ji Yuqiao pouted.

"Then...can I pursue you?" Zhao Jiayan's heartbeat quickened with these words, and nervous sweat oozed out of his palms.

"Ah!" Ji Yuqiao suddenly panicked when she saw the clock on the wall. "Is it so late already? I have something else to do next, so I'll leave first. I'll review next time."

She packed her stationery and hurried out of the library.
