Chapter 24
Before Jiang Biao could beg for mercy, Jiang Yining ended the call. Throwing her phone aside, she turned over and lay on the soft bed. She took out the black card from her pajamas and frowned in distress.
How should she return the card to Lu Zhi?
If she wanted to earn money, she could just take on any mission and she would have it.
She really didn’t need his help.
However, she didn’t know how to explain the fact that she was working as a waitress in a bar.
Jiang Yining had never liked dealing with interpersonal relationships, and no one had taught her this.
Therefore, it gave her a headache.
She fell asleep as she struggled.
Jiang Yining dreamed of blood…
Large patches of blood flowed out of her parents’ bodies and stained her white clothes.
She hid in the small, deformed car, hoping in horror that someone would come and save them.
However, time passed bit by bit.
No one came over.
She was surrounded by blood and almost suffocated.
The scene suddenly changed. A tall man was holding a little girl who looked like a doll. He was sitting in a dreamy garden and coaxing her gently and patiently.
“Rourou, be good. It doesn’t hurt. Uncle will blow on your wound and it won’t hurt anymore.”
“Uncle, don’t blame Ah Ning. I fell down myself.”
“Alright.”
The little girl finally stopped crying.
The man handed her over to the servant beside him and walked towards her, who was standing in the corner with a cold gaze.
Slap!
The loud slap echoed clearly in the air.
“I told you to look after Ah Rou, is this how you look after her? Next time, if Ah Rou gets hurt again, you will receive ten times the punishment!”
Pain spread from her cheek…
Jiang Yining looked at the handsome man in front of her as her body slowly sank into the darkness until she was completely swallowed.
Jiang Yining suddenly opened her eyes, and a piercing light entered them.
She was stunned for a few seconds. She looked around and realized that she was not in the Gu family but the Lu family.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and her expression returned to its indifferent state.
She was no longer a sick cat that needed help.
No one could hurt her anymore!
…
Jiang Yining changed and walked out of the room.
In the end, she almost bumped into the housekeeper who was walking towards her.
The housekeeper raised her head and met her eyes. Her heart thumped a few times.
The Young Mistress’s aura was too strong.
Who provoked her so early in the morning?
Her eyes were as sharp as a knife…
“Good morning, Young Mistress.”
After all, he was a professionally trained housekeeper, so she quickly calmed down.
“Where’s Lu Zhi?”
“Sir just had breakfast and is waiting for you downstairs.”
“Mhm.”
Jiang Yining nodded slightly and walked to the dining room downstairs.
She walked up to Lu Zhi, took out the card from her pocket, and handed it to him.
“I’m returning it to you.”
Lu Zhi acted as if he didn’t see it and said lightly, “I found you a part-time job.”
“?”
Jiang Yining was baffled.
When did she ask him to help her find a job?
“My nephew needs tutoring. From now on, help him with his homework for two hours every day. 100 dollars an hour is much better than finding a messy job outside.” Lu Zhi pointed at the black card in her hand. “Your salary will be deducted from it.”
He had seriously considered it.
Jiang Yining was a person with strong self-esteem. She would definitely not spend his money in peace if she accepted it for no reason.
Therefore, he found an excuse to let her receive money from him without any qualms.
Jiang Yining was speechless.
Why did she feel like a child being disciplined by her parents?
