The familiar street scenes kept changing, and Jiang Lai got tired of looking at them. She turned around to look at Lin Zhi, who was still so beautiful. She could never get tired of looking at her.
"Sister," Jiang Lai called softly.
"Hmm?" Lin Zhi responded.
Jiang Lai hesitated, pounding on Lin Zhi's car door, unable to utter a word. She sniffed twice and looked down to see the tissues Lin Zhi was offering her.
Wipe your nose.
"good."
Jiang Lai actually wanted to ask Lin Zhi what she was thinking, but she hadn't made up a story. Was she supposed to tell Lin Zhi that she was actually a rich second-generation and a celebrity second-generation?
No, no, that won't work.
"Lai Lai, are you trying to ask me why I'm getting a bone marrow match?" The woman's voice was calm as water, as if bone marrow matching was a trivial matter as common as eating and sleeping.
"You knew all along?"
"Of course, you're too naive. Planting a spy next to me would be too obvious. It wasn't this person who exposed you, it was you who exposed yourself, you little fool~"
She called her so affectionately, so much so that Jiang Lai felt she could tell her everything about her family.
Jiang Lai laid her cards on the table, too lazy to pretend anymore, and said bluntly, "I don't understand why you did that matching test. I don't know what you went through after you went home that caused your thoughts to change so drastically. If I had known you would be like this, I wouldn't have let you handle it alone in the first place. I should have kept an eye on you at all times!"
When the red light came on, Lin Zhi stopped the car, reached out and touched the head of the person next to her, who was soft like a kitten.
She comforted the child, "It's a long story, would you like to hear it?"
How much further is it?
"About half an hour."
"Then you tell me."
As the red light changed, the car slowly started moving, and Lin Zhi recounted her experiences over the past few days in a soft, unhurried voice.
“He apologized to me and tried to appeal to my emotions. Whether he was genuinely repentant or just felt he was going to die and was entrusting his children to me, it has nothing to do with me.”
"Then you should pay!"
"Shh." Lin Zhi put her index finger to her lips, signaling her not to speak.
Jiang Lai nodded, pursing her lips without saying a word.
"The old man gave me his entire life savings, but the money in it wasn't even as much as the balance in one of my bank cards. I simply didn't believe him when he said he was drunk that day. I saw it clearly and remember it clearly; we stared at each other in the dark, cramped closet..."
Lin Zhi took a deep breath, a hint of gloom flashing in her eyes: "He knows I'm a semi-public figure and wants to put me in the public eye. If he dies or loses his ability to earn money, I'll have to support him, Lin Feng, and that mistress. This world isn't black and white, but a mixture of black and white. I can accept public criticism, but I can't accept public criticism harming the company. I have to do this matching test; it's the only way for me to extricate myself."
Jiang Lai didn't understand these things, and she couldn't comprehend how a father could exploit his daughter like this. Lin Zhi's family situation had long exceeded Jiang Lai's comprehension. Lin Zhi was very strong; if it were her, she would have gone mad and committed suicide long ago.
Although Jiang Lai's parents were not around, she never lacked the love she needed. On the other hand, Lin Zhi, although they were a family together, were no longer of one mind.
Her fingernails dug into her palm, but the pain was nothing compared to Lin Zhi's heartache. Jiang Lai's face darkened, and she said in an almost commanding tone, "Then I will not allow you to hurt yourself. You have done enough for Lin Feng over the years. There is no need to hurt your body for him."
Lin Zhi was taken aback. She never expected Jiang Lai to be so angry. Her heart warmed instantly, and she was reluctant to tell her the truth. But if she didn't, she was afraid the child would be furious.
"Don't be angry, you're about to snot bubble out of your nose."
"Huh?" Jiang Lai was indeed concerned about her image. She took a tissue and wiped it, but there was nothing there.
I've been scammed.
"Sister!" Jiang Lai stomped her foot in anger.
Lin Zhi laughed heartlessly, took out a piece of milk candy from her pocket, unwrapped it, and stuffed it into the child's mouth. The milk candy was very sweet, and even though Jiang Lai's sense of taste was weak now, she could still taste the sweetness.
She said contentedly, with a piece of candy in her mouth, "Don't think you can get rid of me with a piece of candy. I won't allow you to donate."
"I won't donate. I've already had someone prepare a report, and the match won't be successful."
Jiang Lai suddenly realized.
Yes, if the matching is unsuccessful, then no one has the right to condemn Lin Zhi for not helping him in his time of need. On the contrary, she has often provided financial assistance to Lin Feng in recent years, who is the son of a mistress.
Unbeknownst to her, her glorious and great image was thus created. Later, she only took care of her father's care. Lin Feng recovered from his illness and did not need to spend too much money during his nine years of compulsory education. The mistress naturally had time to go out and earn money. In this way, even if Lin's father unfortunately passed away, Lin Zhi could get away with it. No one had the right to say anything about her, and the online trolls who did not know the truth had no way to criticize her.
Jiang Lai swallowed hard, her bright eyes fixed on Lin Zhi.
In truth, Lin Zhi was panicking. She didn't know what Jiang Lai would think after learning the truth. Would she see her as a cunning person? Meticulous? Or ruthless?
She didn't speak, and didn't know what to say. Just when she thought she had lost Jiang Lai, the man said in an admiring tone, "Sister, I find that I admire you more and more. I want to apologize to you. I thought you were stupid and rich before."
"You...don't think I'm malicious?"
Jiang Lai hesitated for a moment, then smiled broadly: "You call that self-preservation, just giving them a taste of their own medicine. If we're really talking about viciousness, then Wang Chunmei is the most vicious! She bullied you like that! I really! I really want to kick her away!"
Jiang Lai was furious and wished she could actually kick him out.
The car drove into the community parking garage, which was completely dark with only a few lights on.
Lin Zhi unbuckled her seatbelt and leaned halfway over: "Jiang Lai, you're so cute, what am I going to do if I want to kiss you?"
Jiang Lai was momentarily stunned. The person in front of her was delicate and boneless, with seductive eyes. That gentle and charming aura made Jiang Lai swallow hard.
"You...have changed..."
"Have you changed? I only act this way with you."
"Then you promise that only I can see you like this."
Lin Zhi smiled, revealing her beauty to Jiang Lai without reservation: "I...promise."

Please add to your favorites
Rumors circulate that a deity appeared in the northern city five hundred years ago. She was alluring and beautiful, with a snake's tail and a human body. She appeared and carried out a massacre, turning the northern city into a bloodbath overnight, with corpses strewn everywhere.
Li Lu had read this rumor and thought it was nonsense. Gods never appear in the human world, so how could they commit massacres? Until that day, she saw with her own eyes the goddess she had worshipped for many years break off a man's head with her bare hands.
——
She is a film queen with millions of fans. In an interview, she said without hesitation that her ideal type is Feng Xuanshen.
Weibo crashed instantly as news of Li Lu's crush on Feng Xuanshen flooded the screen.
Feng Xuanshen is a legend in Beicheng. She is unpredictable and easily angered. Although she is beautiful, many people keep their distance from her.
As expected, Feng Xuanshen's Weibo post caused the software to crash again.
[@Feng Xuanshen: What is Lilu? I've never heard of it.]
One day, Li Lu unexpectedly received an invitation from her goddess. She was both nervous and excited, but when she opened the door and saw the scene in front of her, she fainted and foamed at the mouth.
The next day, Li Lu woke up at the Civil Affairs Bureau. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the goddess. The goddess parted her red lips slightly and calmly uttered four words: "Marry me."
Li Lu: ? ? ?
Later, Li Lu discovered that the goddess possessed magic, made deals with ghosts while killing them, and even ran a strange agency.
Feng Xuanshen also couldn't escape the "true fragrance" law, completely forgetting his initial disdain for Li Lu. He not only became jealous, but also became more irritable because of Li Lu.
Someone accidentally touched Li Lu's hand on a variety show.
Feng Xuanshen: I'm going to twist his hand off!
Li Lu: Are you crazy?
Feng Xuanshen: What kind of lunatic are you? I am a god!
P.S.: 1. There are many personal interpretations, please don't argue.

Chapter 57
"A happy little frog~"
Even the most beloved person would find the cheerful ringtone annoying if it rang at seven in the morning. Jiang Lai covered her ears, trying to block out the noisy ringtone. She had exercised for a long time last night while she was sick, and she no longer had the strength to get up and answer the phone.
Lin Zhi was also woken up. She frowned and opened her eyes to look at Jiang Lai, who was tucked under the pillow and showed no intention of answering the phone.
Lin Zhi was also not in a daze. She groped for her vibrating and ringing phone, squinted her eyes, pressed the red button, and then the ringing stopped abruptly.
She nudged Jiang Lai, tossed her the phone, and said in a hoarse voice, "You Yi's call, I'm hanging up on you."
Jiang Lai crawled out from under the pillow, turned around and snuggled into Lin Zhi's arms, rubbing against her chest: "Ignore her, let's continue sleeping."
Lin Zhi trembled, and a certain part of her body became wet involuntarily. She then came to her senses and pushed Jiang Lai away: "It's seven o'clock, I should get up."
"No~" Jiang Lai whined, grabbing Lin Zhi's wrist to prevent her from leaving.
"Jiang Lai! Can't you even hear me?!"
Jiang Lai was startled, feeling that the voice was both far and near. She stared blankly at Lin Zhi: "Where did that voice come from?"
Lin Zhi was also startled. Was there a third person in the room?
Just as the two were stunned, a sharp voice broke in: "I'm You Yi! I'm in your phone!"
"Holy crap!" Jiang Lai exclaimed, releasing Lin Zhi and turning to look for her phone.
Sure enough, it's in a call...it's been almost a minute already.
You Yi scratched his head on the other end of the phone, his voice almost hoarse from shouting: "Jiang Lai! I'll give you one hour, see you at the usual place!"
After You Yi finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately, not giving Jiang Lai a chance to speak.
"Sister, you didn't answer the phone just now, did you?"
Lin Zhi didn't remember. She only remembered pressing the button on the red area. How did it work?
An hour later, the two got ready and went to find You Yi together.
