Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“If you are a stock that will rise 100%, then there will be many people who will buy you. Even if it was my turn, the price would be hundreds of times higher than now. Moreover, even if it falls, the loss is not worth mentioning to me.”
After Lin Zhi finished speaking, Ji Zi’ang lowered his head and looked at his legs.
A moment later, he raised his head to look at Shao Xiuqi and asked hoa.r.s.ely, “Does Mucheng know that you asked me to come today?”
Shao Xiuqi was stunned for a moment before shaking his head, “He doesn’t.”
How could he dare to tell Qin Mucheng? Qin Mucheng would definitely not agree to it.
Ji Ziang loved Ji Yuanyuan too much, so he treated Ji Yuanyuan’s family very seriously.
However, Shao Xiuqi felt that what happened today might not be a bad thing.
It might be a good thing for Ji Zi’ang, Lin Zhi, and even him.
“What can I get?” Ji Zi’ang looked at Lin Zhi again.
He was betting that Shao Xiuqi and Lin Zhi probably didn’t know that he lacked money, so he wanted to fight for the most significant benefits for himself.
He also wanted to know if he was worth Lin Zhi’s gamble.
“Don’t worry, if the club is successful, you will have shares too. It’s all in the contract. You can take it back and read it carefully before giving me an answer.” Lin Zhi placed his hand on the sofa and knocked on it lightly.’
Ji Zi’ang did not answer. Instead, he picked up the contract on the table and read through it one by one.
The contract was very long, so Ji Zi’ang read it very slowly.
Shao Xiuqi and Lin Zhi did not rush him. The two of them waited patiently for him to read the contract.
Lin Zhi even called for a waiter to get him a cup of coffee.
After 15 minutes, he finally finished reading the terms of the contract.
After reading it, he looked up at Lin Zhi, “Can I give the contract to my lawyer?”
“Of course.” Lin Zhi nodded with a calm expression.
He quickly took photos of the contracts and sent them to his lawyer friends.
He had already fallen for it once, so it was impossible for him to fall for it a second time.
Before the lawyer could reply, Ji Zi’ang was the first to discuss the terms with Lin Zhi.
“I need money now. Three million. After the contract was signed, how many days would it take for the money to arrive?”! i Zi’ang said.
Lin Zhi was stunned when he heard that.
A few seconds later, he smiled, “Only three million, just five minutes is enough.”
This surprised Ji Zi’ang.
This Lin Zhi was quite straightforward.
Perhaps because his expression was too obvious, Lin Zhi explained, “Three million is nothing to me. Consider it a stepping stone to express my sincerity.”
The lawyer quickly sent a reply to Ji Zi’ang. The contract was normal and there were no traps.
Ji Zi’ang flipped the contract to the last page and reached out his hand to Lin Zhi, “Pen!”
Shao Xiuqi, who was beside him, hurriedly handed over a pen.
Ji Zi’ang signed his name on the last page.
Shao Xiuqi took the ink pad again, and Ji Zi’ang pressed his fingerprint on it.
After Ji Zi’ang signed, Lin Zhi followed suit and signed his name.
The contract was considered complete.
“Give me your bank account.” Lin Zhi looked at Ji Zi’ang.”
He wrote down a string of numbers on the tissue beside him.
Lin Zhi took a photo and sent it to his secretary.
“Transfer three million to this account in five minutes.”
In less than three minutes, he received a text message on his phone indicating that three million had been transferred to his account.
Ji Zi’ang pursed his lips, and for a moment, something seemed to be surging in his chest.
“I’ll pay you back. Don’t worry.”
Lin Zhi nodded, “Alright, I’ll contact you when the club’s venue is ready.”
He stood up, “Do you need my secretary to give you a ride?”
“No, thanks.” Ji Zi’ang shook his head.
“Goodbye,” Lin Zhi smiled.
With that, he turned around and left.
As he looked at Lin Zhi’s back, his expression gradually relaxed.
Lin Zhi didn’t treat him as a cripple. This was the kind of gaze he needed.
He still had value. He was still useful.
Shao Xiuqi didn’t leave. He looked at Ji Zi’ang with some hesitation, “Should we not tell Mucheng about this for the time being?”
If Qin Mucheng knew about this, he would inevitably think they were taking advantage of the situation.
Ji Zi’ang retracted his gaze and nodded, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.”
Hearing this, Shao Xiuqi heaved a sigh of relief and stepped forward, “Let me send you home.”
“No need.” He shook his head. “My parents have seen you before. I can’t explain.”
Shao Xiuqi thought about it and agreed.
“Then I’ll help you hail a taxi.”
With that, Shao Xiuqi swiftly went outside to hail a cab for Ji Zi’ang.
When he got home, he immediately transferred the money to AM Club’s account.
Ji Ziang heaved a long sigh of relief when he regained his freedom.
Coming out of the room, he looked at Li Xu and Zhang Kun, “Dad, Mom, I’ve already settled the matter of the breach of contract.”
“Where did you get the money?” Li Xu and Zhang Kun were a little surprised.”
“I borrowed it from a cla.s.smate. One of my cla.s.smates’ money was previously tied up by stocks.” Ji Zi’ang lied.
Although he had impulsively borrowed three million from Lin Zhi, he did not dare return the money to Li Xu and Zhang Kun.
If he returned it, Li Xu and Zhang Kun would definitely ask about the source of the money.
If the two of them found out that Ji Zi’ang had sold himself out again…
Therefore, Ji Zi’ang could only leave the money in his hands for the time being and return it to Li Xu and Zhang Kun when the time was right.
However, he could return the money to his cla.s.smates now.
In order to raise money for him, many of his cla.s.smates had brought out their trump cards.
Ji Zi’ang remembered this favor. Now that he had money, he naturally had to return it.
When Li Xu heard this, her face was filled with grat.i.tude, “Then your cla.s.smate is really good to you. You have to remember this kindness. When you have more money, you have to return the money to him quickly.”
“Alright.” Ji Zi’ang nodded. “I will.”
The matter of the breach of contract was settled smoothly, and no one suspected Ji Zi’ang.
Lin Zhi had not contacted Ji Zi’ang, so he went to the hospital for rehabilitation training as usual. He went to Teacher Cai’s for acupuncture and soaked his knees with the medicine given by Ji Yuanyuan every day.
By the end of April, he was completely free of his wheelchair and crutches.
He could walk on his own, although he was still limping.
However, it was not obvious, and Li Xu and Zhang Kun were still very happy.
To them, it did not matter whether Ji Zi’ang could continue racing, become a world champion, or earn money.
As long as he was healthy and happy, that was enough.
At the beginning of May, there was finally news from Lin Zhi.
His club had already been set up, including the training ground, business license, and so on.
Lin Zhi contacted Ji Zi’ang to start recruiting new racers for the club..
