“You’re so eager?”
“Yes, the teacher over there is very busy. We need to come according to his time. Of course, if you can’t get it out here, we can only forget it. I just find it a pity.”
“I can afford it,” Liu Chen said with unusual generosity. “Isn’t it just half a million? It means nothing to our family, I will bring it over at noon.”
‘Ah, that was a mistake. If I had known earlier, I should have asked for a million yuan.’
Yan Jinyi gestured for Yan Ming to hang up.
“That’s fine, I have a meeting later. I’ll see you at noon.”
Not giving Liu Chen a chance to answer, Yan Ming quickly hung up the phone.
“Miss Yan, the money…”
Yan Jinyi asked with raised eyebrows, “Huh?”
“Who is the money for?”
“What do you think?”
Yan Ming said fawningly, “Of course it’s for Yan…”
“Of course it is for Second Young Mistress Huo. Once you get the money, just hand it to me and I will pass it to Second Young Mistress Huo.”
Yan Ming nodded and glanced at Huo Qingyuan. He had already noticed her just now. She was all decked out in branded goods and she was rather elegant.
‘However, she seems to be a fresh face. She doesn’t look like she’s from the entertainment industry.’
“I’m the bodyguard assigned to Sister Jin by Second Young Mistress Huo,” Huo Qingyuan said proudly.
A bodyguard?
‘This is the first time I’ve ever seen such a beautiful female bodyguard. The Huo Family is indeed very different.’
Liu Chen put away the phone and immediately bounced up from the bed. Yang Guifang had been living in their home for a while, and was currently sitting in the living room, watching TV with fruit plates filled with fruit in front of her.
“Grandma, Brother Yan called me just now and he said that there is a particularly good training opportunity because the mentor is very competent. He’s busy with work so training has to start urgently. We need half a million yuan.”
Yang Guifang had seen how popular Yan Jinyi had become after she got famous. She now desperately wanted her grandson to become a superstar too. Hearing her words, she immediately agreed, “We have to go.”
“But we are still 300,000 yuan short. That heartless lass Yan Jinyi will certainly not give me that money. Why don’t you go to Mrs. Bai?”
‘Go to Mrs. Bai?’
Yang Guifang’s expression changed. She shook her head and said, “How is it possible? She’s not related to us and she’s already helped us once. There’s no way she will help us a second time. Your mother has gone out to buy some groceries, she will be right back. Let’s wait.”
Seeing that it was almost ten, Liu Chen began to panic and she said, “Grandma, isn’t your home going to be acquired by the state for tourism purposes? You must have already gotten the money, right? It should be no problem for you to give me 300,000 yuan.”
That was her pension money. In case she were to fall sick in the future and have to rely on that money for treatment, there was no way she’d be able to afford it.
Yang Guifang thought to herself secretly but she was still smiling benevolently. “How is it possible for it to be quick? We’re still very far off, don’t rely on hearsay. Previously, your parents took money from Yan Jinyi, there’s definitely some left.”
There obviously wasn’t any money left. Previously, he almost went to jail and he had to rely on that money to be bailed.
“When is Mom going to come back? Call her to urge her.”
The thought that he would be becoming the ace member of a big idol group in a few months made Liu Chen feel incredibly zealous.
‘By then, many rich women would definitely want to make me their boy toy and I’ll also have a bunch of fan girls who will blow their money on me.’
Finally, Chen Yulian returned with a bag of vegetables. While opening the door, she started cursing, “The wife of Old Chen who sells melon seeds is now getting more and more overboard. I merely took a few walnuts out of convenience but she actually made me pay. She’s so poor and stingy, her son definitely won’t be able to get a good wife in the future.”
Yang Guifang and her daughter-in-law did not get along too well but she had to put up with it even if she wasn’t satisfied since she could only live in her son’s house now.
