Chapter 122: Favor
“No,” Gu Jin raised her eyebrows . “We settled our scores a long time ago, so neither of us owe anything to each other . ” She took a sip of coffee and the pungent sweet flavor spread in her mouth . Gu Jin squinted happily . This coffee shop is good .
Cheng Xin looked at her with slight envy . The woman in front of her did not even wear light makeup, her whole being exuded freshness and comfort . Actually, what she said just now transpires from the bottom of her heart . Gu Jin truly appears beautiful .
“I know, what I did was wrong . If you don’t intend to forgive me, then I won’t insist . ” Cheng Xin laughed at herself and said bitterly, “But for the sake of your aunt’s and my mother’s reputation, can you do me a favor?”
Drinking sweet coffee excessively induces weariness and anxiety . Gu Jin placed the porcelain cup down, lightly consenting, “Speak, I’ll listen to you . ”
She knew in her heart that only the blood relations.h.i.+p between the mothers of both sides connected her with Cheng Xin . Even if Cheng Xin moved away, they will presumably demand quite the fair amount in compensation because of their relations.h.i.+p to Gu Jin’s mother, Li Mingxia .
Cheng Xin’s recent experience taught her to speak mindfully . Against Gu Jin’s cold att.i.tude, her heart pounded heavily while she carefully phrased her thoughts .
After listening to Cheng Xin, Gu Jin finally comprehended their situation .
News that Jing Hao and the Li Family’s miss interacted intimately spread widely throughout Imperial capital . On that day at the banquet, Jing Hao stepped up as Cheng Xin’s first defense, prominently establis.h.i.+ng their relations.h.i.+p to many .
Growing up pampered, the only daughter of the Li family does not allow people to bully her easily . She harbours a strong desire to monopolize, and she can drown people when she drinks vinegar .
(T/N: drinks vinegar= is jealous)
Back when Jing Hao rejected her, Miss Li had no idea that he dated Cheng Xin . Now that Jing Hao and Miss Li established a clear relations.h.i.+p, Jing Hao is reluctant to scold his new fiancee while Cheng Xin suffers under her provocations .
Consequently, the Li family these days targets the Cheng family in the commercial market . The Cheng family’s commodities frequently lost their validity, while their business declined dramatically . Suffering from these recent events, Father Cheng’s hair turned white . His blood pressure rose several times, causing him to faint .
Cheng Xin rose up to carry the mantle, but she didn’t have any experience managing a company, nor did she study any relevant knowledge in an organized fas.h.i.+on . Instead, she tried looking for help elsewhere . Unfortunately, on her way to meet Jing Hao, her path was blocked by Li Yu . Jing Hao even blacklisted Cheng Xin’s name from his own contacts .
Cheng Xin tasted despair, but she had no one else to blame . Although she can only swallow the bitter fruit she created, she couldn’t allow Father Cheng, who worked hard all his life, to be buried in the depths with her . She had no choice but to seek out Gu Jin .
“My family and I don’t involve ourselves with business matters,” Gu Jin said after a moment’s silence . “I’m afraid I can’t help you–”
“I know that,” Cheng Xin interrupted, her voice tinted with fervor and caution . “I understand that Mr . Mu and Jing Hao don’t get along…”
“You and Mu Mingcheng are dating . Could you, perhaps, ask him to help the Cheng family overcome these difficulties? As a token of grat.i.tude, we’re willing to offer a portion of the Cheng family’s shares,” she proposed .
Underneath Gu Jin’s placid stare, the volume of her voice ebbed lower and lower until, at last, she fell completely quiet .
“Then I might disappoint you,” Gu Jin abruptly replied with a grin . In response to Cheng Xin’s puzzled eyes, she slowly explained, “Mu Mingcheng and I just broke up a few days ago . ”
……
Walking towards the cafe’s exit, Gu Jin paused for a moment, before turning around to say to Cheng Xin, “If the Cheng family can last for more than half a month, you should be able to overcome this . ”
Still sitting at the back of the coffee shop, Cheng Xin’s eyes lit up .
