Chapter 34: The Father Who Collects Debts
Ning Lengzhi listened to Ning Zhicheng's deliberately distant words, and his heart choked, as if Ning Zhicheng would never talk to her in a concerned tone except for asking for living expenses and medical expenses every time.
Ning Lengzhi's eyes darkened, and then he replied: "Well, I just paid my salary, and I have already remitted the money to your bank card, you remember to check it." ”
"Really?"
Hearing that Ning Lengzhi sent the money back, Ning Zhicheng's tone raised, and then he seemed to realize that he was reacting too much, and coughed deliberately.
Ning Lengzhi listened to the violent cough coming from the other end, and felt a little uncomfortable, Ning Zhicheng's health has not been good, perhaps because of his long-term illness, his temper will become very strange.
"Dad, pay attention to your body, I'll hang up first."
couldn't bear to listen to it any longer, Ning Lengzhi hurriedly hung up the phone, raised his hand and pressed the corner of his eye, wiping away a little bit of wetness.
There was a sudden sound of brakes, and Ning Lengzhi was shocked to realize that she had unconsciously walked to the middle of the road, but the traffic light showed a red light.
Her face turned pale with fright, and she stood in front of the front of the car only a meter away from her, somewhat bewildered.
"Damn, I'm going to die!"
A malevolent man peeked out of the car window and yelled at her.
Ning Lengzhi owed a little ashamed, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry!" ”
"Don't hurry up and get out of the way, do you know that Lao Tzu is in a hurry!"
The man scolded, Ning Lengzhi was a little embarrassed, and just wanted to walk to the sidewalk, he crashed into a broad chest.
"Hiss......"
Ning Lengzhi rubbed his sore forehead, and before he could react, he was pulled to the side of the road.
"Are you alright?"
A familiar voice came from above his head, and as soon as Ning Lengzhi raised his head suddenly, he fell into a pair of eyes that seemed to be deep pools.
"You, why are you here?"
Ning Lengzhi was surprised for a long time before he regained his voice, tilted his head and asked Ji Mochen, who was a head taller than her.
It was rare to see him curled the corners of his lips, but Ning Lengzhi couldn't feel Ji Mochen's slightest smile, but only felt that the temperature around him had dropped by several degrees.
Ji Mochen sneered, looking at Ning Lengzhi's gaze with a little more disdain, "I really admire you, you usually don't do things without brains, you can even walk to the middle of the road, do you think your life is too comfortable?" Well? ”
The man's string of cynicism slammed into Ning Lengzhi's head.
Ning Lengzhi pursed his lips a little innocently, and whispered very aggrievedly: "I didn't mean to......"
Ji Mochen looked at her aggrieved appearance, and snorted coldly.
Immediately, with a big palm, he pulled Ning Lengzhi straight to the car he parked on the side of the road, opened the car door, and rudely stuffed the person in.
Ning Lengzhi's whole person fell on the back seat, and by the time she got up, Ji Mochen had already started the engine of the car, controlling the steering wheel and driving the car smoothly.
Ning Lengzhi swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and could only sit back on the seat in frustration.
To Ning Lengzhi's relief, Ji Mochen drove the car straight to her residence.
"Thank you for sending me back......"
After hesitating for a moment, Ning Lengzhi still said to Ji Mochen in the front seat.
The car stopped smoothly on the side of the road, Ji Mochen turned his head sideways and looked out of the car window, and highlighted two words in a faint voice, "Get out of the car." ”
"Oh......"
Ning Lengzhi was used to Ji Mochen's indifferent attitude, and after he issued the eviction order, she picked up her things and retreated from the car door without any delay.
It's just that...... After seeing Ji Mochen also get out of the car, Ning Leng was stunned.
"What? Sending you back, you don't even have the sincerity to invite me up for a cup of tea? Ji Mochen sneered with a calm face.
"Yes, yes, of course, but my house ...... It might be a bit messy, I guess you'd better ......"
"Don't talk nonsense."
Ji Mochen glanced at her coldly and walked into the corridor first.
Ning Lengzhi looked at the man who disappeared at the top of the stairs, and scratched his hair with some uneasiness, the last time he just stood at the door, he was disgusted to death by Ji Mochen, and this time he had no choice but to walk in......
Ning Lengzhi raised his head and sighed......
"Ning Lengzhi, how long are you going to stand below?"
Ji Mochen's voice suddenly came from above, Ning Lengzhi opened his eyes and saw Ji Mochen who was already standing on the balcony upstairs, and hurriedly responded: "Come on, I'll go up." ”
Running to the floor where he lived in one go, Ning Lengzhi didn't dare to take a breath, and hurriedly took out the key and unlocked the door.
"Mr. Ji ...... Come in. ”
Ning Lengzhi stood by the door and watched Ji Mochen walk into the door with anxiety.
"Sit down, I'll make tea."
Ning Lengzhi saw that Ji Mochen turned his black eyes and looked around, so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole and bury his head.
Due to the perennial need to pay for the family's expenses, she has no savings at all, so she can only live in such an inconspicuous and even somewhat dilapidated house.
Once Jiang Taihe also proposed to come and sit, but Ning Lengzhi refused, first, they can usually meet in the company, and second, they ...... She didn't want people to know her bitter side.
She doesn't want the sympathy and pity of others, and she doesn't want those strange eyes, although she comes from a small place, she also has self-esteem.
Ji Mochen walked around the small room and snorted.
Ning Lengzhi's hand holding the tea jar shook because of his muffled snort, and the tea was accidentally poured too much.
"As a department manager in a medium-sized company, you don't have to live in such a place, right?"
Ji Mochen slowly sat on the narrow sofa, looked at Ning Lengzhi's stiff back and asked coldly.
Ning Lengzhi bit his lip with his back to him, paused, and then continued to fiddle with the teapot in front of him.
Bringing the brewed tea to the coffee table, Ning Leng put the teacup in front of Ji Mochen while lowering his eyebrows with a wry smile, "That can't be helped, who made me spend a lot." ”
When Ji Mochen heard this, his eyes sank, "Big expenses? ”
What can she spend? Buying luxury clothes like other women, luxury leather bags?
Ji Mochen subconsciously denied it, since he took over Liyi, as long as he saw Ning Lengzhi, she would always have those suits on her, and she would have to get rid of the scum, and because her appearance should be reasonable, it didn't reach the point where he couldn't tolerate it. In this way, she has no reason to spend a lot of money at all.
But having met her in bars and restaurants, Ji Mochen felt that she seemed to really need money......
When he got to his throat, he didn't ask for it, Ji Mochen picked up the teacup and poured the bitter tea into his throat, and put the cup down heavily.
