The colleague was still asking Wen Li about Ji Tingyang, and Wen Li looked embarrassed.

Wen Li took off her apron immediately after seeing the boy outside the store from a distance. "My boyfriend is here to pick me up. I'm going home from get off work now. See you tomorrow."

After saying that, she went out and hurriedly left with Xiao Yu.

Seeing her anxious to leave, Xiao Yu was a little confused, "What's wrong?"

Wen Li told him what had just happened, "My colleague thought that person was my friend and insisted on asking me for his contact information, but I didn't have it."

Then she thought about it again, "But even if there is, I won't tell her."

"Why?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Because I don't like my colleague." Wen Li smiled and gave a petty answer.

Every time her colleague was at work, she always liked to slack off and left the work to her alone. Wen Li had quarreled with her several times about this.

Xiao Yu chuckled.

On the way home, the two chatted about trivial matters in life.

Xiao Yu said that he had received the prize money from the competition and could treat her to steak tomorrow.

He also said that a senior invited him to open a studio together, and that he would work hard to make a lot of money in the future so that she could live a good life.

"Okay, I will try my best too." Wen Li's eyes were filled with smiles.

After taking the bus for half an hour, Wen Li returned home. As soon as she entered the door, a water cup hit her feet, and sharp fragments flew everywhere.

Then she heard the familiar scolding again, "You come back so late, are you going to starve us to death?"

Wen Li pursed her lips and silently picked up the broken pieces and put them into the trash can. "I changed to a part-time job at a dessert shop, and I get off work a little late."

"Why do you run out to work part-time all day? You might as well find a rich son-in-law with that little time. Then you can have whatever you want when the time comes." Father Wen glared at him, his eyebrows raised one by one, and said sternly.

Mother Wen also nodded in agreement. "You're right. I think the classmate who pursued you before is not bad. His family runs a big factory. The car that drove to our downstairs last time was a BMW. If you can marry him, let him give more money to help the family, and your brother's dowry will also be settled."

Many people had pursued Wen Li before, and that man was the most high-profile. He drove a modified BMW car and brought a large bouquet of roses to her house and shouted downstairs, asking Wen Li to agree to be his girlfriend.

The onlookers were all sighing at the romance, but Wen Li felt extremely ashamed. She hated those self-righteous rich people the most.

Wen Li angrily fetched several basins of water and poured them down from the upstairs. In the end, the man drove away, all wet.

Afterwards, she was scolded by her parents, who said she was ungrateful.

When Wen Li mentioned this, she felt annoyed. "You want money, so let your brother find a rich woman to marry into your family. You can even save on the dowry."

As soon as he finished speaking, a slap came down.

Wen Li's ears suddenly buzzed and her mind went blank. She covered her ears and stood there stupidly.

It took her a while to react.

She was beaten by her father.

"What are you talking about? How can your brother be the same as you?" Father Wen's curses became louder and louder, and even Mother Wen joined in the curse. "I said I shouldn't send her to school. It cost me so much money, and now she even talks back."

Mother Wen shrank her neck and hurried to teach her daughter a lesson, "How can a man marry into a woman's family? You've become stupid from studying too much! And you should break up with that poor boy named Xiao right away, do you hear me?"

Anger kept surging in her heart, and her whole body seemed to become numb. Wen Li clenched her hands and returned to her room in silence.

After closing the bedroom door, she took out the piggy bank from under the bed, poured all the money inside onto the bed, and counted them one by one.

The sound of her parents' quarrel could still be heard outside the living room, but Wen Li turned a deaf ear to it and focused all her attention on counting the money.

Every time she quarreled with her parents, she would count the money in her piggy bank, feeling the rising amount of savings while comforting herself by thinking how long she would have to endure before she could move out.

almost.

She was only one thousand yuan short of saving enough for the deposit, so she could rent the house she had liked and move out.

……

the other side.

Lin Xu took Ji Tingyang and Ji Lanyue and happily boarded the plane and headed towards the island.

When Ji Zeqiu found out about this, he was filming on the set. After his scene was finished, he found a chair to sit down and rest, and took out his cell phone to see if anyone had contacted him.

After replying to some work messages, he looked at Lin Xu, who was pinned to the top of his WeChat account, and clicked on it.

He hadn't received a reply to the message he sent to Lin Xu two hours ago, and he felt a little confused.

In the past, he always replied to Lin Xu's messages within seconds, and the latest time was no later than half an hour. This was the first time that she hadn't replied to his messages in such a long time.

Is mother busy with something?

But there was nothing more important than her son.

Ji Zeqiu pursed his lips and casually clicked into her circle of friends. However, he never expected to see the photo of Lin Xu and Ji Tingyang playing at the beach. His eyes widened instantly.

The time was still an hour ago.

This means that my mother is traveling with Ji Tingyang now? !

Ji Zeqiu called angrily, and the first sentence after the call was full of grievance, "Mother, how can you go on a trip with Ji Tingyang? That guy has a lot of bad habits and likes to have a bad face all day long. It will be very hard for you to go out with him."

"How come I didn't know that I had so many problems?" The voice on the other end of the phone was Ji Tingyang's.

Ji Zeqiu was shocked. He didn't feel embarrassed at all after being caught saying bad things about someone. Instead, he accused him stubbornly, "How could you take my mother's phone and eavesdrop on her calls!"

"First of all, my mother went to the bathroom and she asked me to get the bag. Secondly, your phone call shouldn't be a private matter, right?" Ji Tingyang said in a calm voice.

"It's wrong to eavesdrop on your mother's phone calls. I'm going to complain to her and ask her to abandon you and never travel with you again." Ji Zeqiu was furious.

Ji Tingyang: "Thank you for your reminder. In order to avoid you complaining, I should help my mother block all your contact information."

Ji Zeqiu: "Ahhh, Ji Tingyang you bastard, if you dare to block me, I will fly over to you now, believe it or not!"

Lin Xu didn't expect that while she was just going to the bathroom, the two brothers would start arguing on the phone.

Seeing Lin Xu coming back, Ji Tingyang immediately stopped talking. Ji Zeqiu also took this opportunity to act coquettishly to Lin Xu, "Mother, how could you leave me behind and go traveling alone with Ji Tingyang?"

"I'm not alone, Lan Yue is here too." Lin Xu said.

"Is father here too?" Is he the only one abandoned?

"Ayan is in the company handling work for Tingyang."

Ji Zeqiu seemed to be a little comforted. Now he and his father were the only two poor abandoned people.
