Chapter 7

It was obvious that Zhong Yi was trying to help out Jiang YaGe. As long as the wealthy young master would take her offer, the whole issue would end right here. Unfortunately, Jiang YaGe was not one who’d take the ordinary path. She looked at Zhong Yi and said unhappily, “Xiao Yi, let’s ignore someone like that! What if he gropes you when you are drinking with him?

“Push comes to shove, we’d just quit this job!”

She might have sounded very righteous, but her good friend Zhong Yi looked disturbed and said to her, “YaGe…”

Even Fang JunRong, watching the whole event from one side, felt speechless from Jiang YaGe’s response. She changed her mind and started walking towards them.

“Can the two of you help me tidy up my private room?” She said to both Jiang YaGe and Zhong Yi. She wondered what kind of reaction Jiang YaGe would have when they meet again at the Li’s a little while later.

Clearly, Jiang YaGe wasn’t entirely stupid. She quickly responded, “Sure, which private room are you in?”

Zhong Yi, too, looked more relaxed than she was before.

The wealthy young master apparently recognized Fang JunRong and said in a friendly voice, “Eh? Is that you, Boss Fang? If you want them to assist you, then I won’t fight you over them.”

He even gave a “please go ahead” gesture.

Fang JunRong smiled slightly and went back into her private room with both Jiang YaGe and Zhong Yi following behind them.

After they had closed the door behind them, Fang JunRong asked casually, “How did you two end up working here?”

She noticed that her self-control had been getting better and better. She was now able to suppress her hatred and desire for revenge. Or, perhaps, Jiang YaGe was only one of the many culprits, and Fang JunRong hated Li WangJin and Li ShiZe even more.

“I am doing this for my tuition next semester. My uncle and his people took away the insurance money from my parents,” said Jiang YaGe. When she said that, moisture appeared in her eyes, making her look all the more pitiful.

Xu WeiWei, Fang JunRong’s good friend, raised her brows and said very bluntly, “As far as I know, many universities nowadays offer financial assistance. If you work hard enough, you should be able to earn enough to cover other expenses just by being a tutor for two summer months.”

Fang JunRong gave her good friend a look of approval – she was her good friend after all; she was thinking the exact same thing.

Jiang YaGe acted as though this was the first time that she realized that option and said, stuttering, “Oh, yeah… I guess there’s that.”

Zhong Yi bit her lower lips and said, “My grandmother is ill, and we need money for hospital visits and medications. I won’t be able to make enough to cover her medications being a tutor.”

She may have that bewitching and sycophantic look that most disliked, but she certainly has an unyielding personality.

Fang JunRong pursed her lips a little and said, “That’s very responsible of you and that reminds me of my own grandmother. I have a very nice grandmother too. Sadly, she passed away before I was able to take care of her.”

She sighed, looked at Zhong Yi amiably, and said, “I like you a lot. How’d you like to be my adopted daughter?”

If the Li’s were going to adopt Jiang YaGe, what’s another Zhong Yi? It isn’t like she’d encroach on her inheritance. Since Li WangJin enjoyed adopting daughters so much, helping him adopt a few more would be the right thing to do!
