Shocking! The master of metaphysics is actually the ancestor of ghosts and monsters!

Chapter 56 You'd better go home now.

After regaining her footing, Nangong Qian said, "Boss, we're sworn brothers, how can you avoid me?"

Jing Li glanced at her and replied indifferently, "I am the creditor."

To put it simply, creditors do not try to build emotional connections with debtors.

Nangong Qian: "......"

They've come to collect the money; this is a veiled reminder to pay it back. She's unhappy and upset because the big boss isn't friendly to her at all.

Jin Lingling was stunned. Had the young lady undergone a gender change today?

She's always been pampered by others; she's never the one who gets the cold shoulder.

I've never seen her treated like that before.

A sour feeling welled up in my heart.

The servants in the garden were also quite surprised. They had never seen their young lady like this before, except when she treated Madam Shui.

Who exactly is this strangely dressed girl?

They had all met the young lady's friends before, but they had never met this one.

Nangong Qian said eagerly, "Come on, I'll take you inside first."

"No need, just give me the money." Jing Li declined, her slender fingers staring straight at Nangong Qian, looking exactly like someone demanding a debt.

They were indeed collecting debts.

maid:"......"

The young lady is refusing to pay her debts.

Nangong Qian was deflated and looked embarrassed. Her brother had said he would pass on the instructions, and she hadn't expected the big shot to find their family so quickly, so she wasn't prepared at all.

Therefore, she has to wait for her brother or parents to come back before she can get the money.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to make a phone call."

Jin Lingling was very sensitive to the word "money." She smiled politely at Jing Li, pulled Nangong Qian aside, and whispered, "Who is she? Why is she asking you for money?"

Jin Lingling's tone was full of vigilance, "Do you owe money, or is she trying to extort money from you?"

She was afraid that Nangong Qian would be deceived.

Nangong Qian replied, "No, I owe money. Don't worry. There are many things I haven't had time to tell you yet. I'll tell you later."

After making the phone call, Nangong Qian learned that even the fastest brother would not be back for an hour.

Finally, the three of them strolled into the house.

For money, Jingli can wait.

The three sat on the sofa, with Jing Li sitting alone on one side. Her clothes didn't match the surrounding furniture at all, making her look particularly out of place.

Often, after seeing her face, I inexplicably feel that she's alright.

"Boss, why are you dressed like this... um... artistic clothes?" Nangong Qian thought for a long time before finding the right words.

"Doesn't it look good?"

Jing Li looked down, took the juice the maid brought, and said, "Thank you."

The servant was flattered.

"Haha... It looks good." Nangong Qian said this against her will. The boss chose it himself, how could it not look good?

Jin Lingling was shocked to see Nangong Qian lying. This was beyond her comprehension; the young lady never said anything against her conscience!

She's all talk and no action, that's her signature style!

“I have no clothes to wear, so these are the clothes for this body.” Jing Li’s lips pursed into a straight line, then a slight smile appeared. “I need to get the money today.”

He spoke very sincerely, "Otherwise I'll be hungry."

Being hungry is a terrible feeling.

Nangong Qian was shocked to hear that the boss had such a reason, and felt a pang of heartache. She then made another call to urge Nangong Qinghe to hurry up.

She was just mocking the big shot's ugly clothes online, I deserve to die!

Jin Lingling kept looking at Jing Li with a scrutinizing gaze. "May I ask your name?"

In Jin Lingling's eyes, Jing Li's true words were just playing the victim.

The young lady is most likely to feel sorry for those who are unfortunate.

She couldn't believe that such a beautiful woman with all her limbs intact would be short of money for food.

“Jing Li”.

It was just a name, and Jing Li didn't mind answering.

Nangong Qian was worried that she would go hungry, so she called the kitchen servants to bring over a lot of afternoon tea, which was something she had prepared to eat with Jin Lingling but hadn't had yet.

Nangong Qian then realized what was happening and, without introducing the two of them, quickly pointed to Jin Lingling, "Boss, this is my good friend Jin Lingling."

To be honest, she only just learned the big shot's name.

Jin Lingling nodded politely, but her eyes remained wary.

Jing Li rested her chin on her hand, savoring the dessert. She was surprised by the first bite. The girl's beautiful eyebrows and eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but take another bite.

The food in this era is truly excellent.

The ones I ordered on my phone weren't as good as this.

"Miss Jing, I wonder how much money Xixi owes you?" Jin Lingling asked in a deep voice.

“Three million.” Jing Li pondered for a moment, then looked at Jin Lingling, “You’d better go home now.”

Jing Li's indifferent and casual expression startled her.

Is this your way of getting her away?

How to make it easier to deceive Sisi?

Jin Lingling's expression turned unpleasant, and her tone became somewhat hostile, "Miss Jing, Xixi has a kind heart, but we can't take advantage of her."

That's a very straightforward statement.

Everyone knows what she means.

"Lingzi! What are you thinking?" Nangong Qian covered her mouth with her hand. "It's not what you think. Now, you go home right now."

Jin Lingling pulled Nangong Qian's hand away. "She's just a con artist. Can't you change your rotten kindness? Every time, who has ever appreciated your kindness?"

His rapid tone indicated that he was very angry.

There's a sense of frustration and disappointment that they're not living up to their potential.

She helped her, but then she went along with this woman's words and told her to leave. Who is her real best friend?

"You're overthinking it, boss. If they're sending you home, something must have happened at your home. You should go back right now."

Nangong Qian asked urgently, then quickly turned to Jing Li, "Boss, what happened to Lingzi's family?"

"If we go too late, we might not be able to see her brother one last time. If we go earlier, we might still be able to save him."

The girl smiled as she savored the dessert, radiating joy.

younger brother?

How did she know she had a younger brother?

I guess I heard it from someone else.

Hearing this, Jin Lingling felt as if she were cursing her younger brother, and her anger surged instantly. "What do you mean? Are you cursing me?"

I wanted to rush up and slap Jing Li.

Nangong Qian was caught in a dilemma and was flustered. She held down Jin Lingling, who was about to get angry, and said, "Go and call the driver. Take Miss Jin home immediately."

While holding her down, Nangong Qian gave instructions to the servants.

Jin Lingling looked incredulous, and finally burst out with the anger that had been building up in her chest, "Fine, fine, Nangong Qian, do whatever you want. We're not going to contact each other again."

Despite years of relationship, she still helped others when they cursed her.

This was unacceptable to her.

Jin Lingling picked up her bag and stormed out, without even waiting for Nangong Qian's explanation.

He got into the car without looking back.

"Aren't you going to pursue her?"

Jing Li teased Nangong Qian, "You seem like a heartless man."

Nangong Qian was also speechless, "..."

The big shot is just watching the show.

However, she had more important things to ask: "Did something happen to Lingzi's younger brother?"

"Ah."

"The snacks were delicious, thank you for your hospitality."

The polite person looked quite pleased.
