"Actually, well, I'm not someone who's completely indifferent to money."
Everyone:.
If you want it, just say so! Why do you have to pretend? This just made the atmosphere awkward.
Xiaoqin and Qin Shou know Fu Ge well; he's rich, but his emotional intelligence is really low, so he definitely can't understand the dean's little scheme of wanting money.
that's the truth.
Jiang Xiao was a little confused. The dean had just said that it wasn't about money at all, but now he was saying that he cared about money. So, should he accept it or not?
"Well, this isn't about money." The dean raised his face and said solemnly, "But I am, after all, the only family my two relatives left behind in this world."
"Therefore, I must not let hatred blind me for the rest of my life. I must live well. Of course, I am not living for myself. I am living with the beliefs of my lover and my nephew."
"Hmm, but how can we survive properly?" The dean gave Qin Shou a knowing look.
With his high emotional intelligence, Qin Shou immediately picked up the conversation.
"Money, of course it's money. Money can't bring two people back to life, but it can allow our dean to live happily and let go of his hatred."
Qin Shou deliberately emphasized the word "put down".
The implication is that if you pay money, the hospital director won't call the police or anything like that.
"Oh." Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said, "So after all this time, you still want money."
The dean's face darkened. "How could you be so blunt?"
Just as he was about to argue—no, just as he was about to defend himself—Jiang Xiao pulled out a gold note and shut him up.
"Although the person's death has nothing to do with me, I do bear a slight responsibility for this. Here's 50,000, is that enough?"
The office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
If it's 50,000
Xiaoqin got wet on the spot.
She couldn't save that much money even if she worked her whole life!
The dean also began to swallow unconsciously.
How many substandard drugs and expired waters would I have to sell to earn so much?
"Brother, well, I admit I barked a little too loudly just now, please don't take it to heart."
A true man is one who can bend and stretch!
At the same time, looking at the somewhat dim-witted Jiang Xiao, a strange glint flashed deep in Niu Wuliang's eyes.
"Haha, perfectly resolved. In that case, please go back and rest. Thank you for your hard work!"
Yang Tao, whose body was tense, felt as if she had been granted a pardon and immediately pulled Jiang Xiao away from the dean's office.
"What's wrong? The problem's solved, why are you still looking so gloomy? Fifty thousand... that's just a drop in the ocean for you, right?"
At this moment, Jiang Xiao was sitting on the hospital bed, and Yang Tao was kneeling behind him, massaging him while asking him questions.
"The money isn't a big deal, it's just a few bills. It's nothing."
How many?
If that's what you mean, then it's not many, only five, but each of those five is a gold note worth ten thousand yuan!
Yang Tao stuck out her tongue. Just how rich must this guy be?
"Money isn't the issue, but I feel the problem isn't solved yet."
"It seems that Niu Genchang and Zhao Rou's deaths were indeed caused by a series of unexpected events, but is it really that simple?"
Yang Tao's "Ants Climbing a Tree" move nearly made Jiang Xiao cry out.
"Hey, stop with the conspiracy theories. The surveillance footage and the facts are right in front of us, and the cause of their deaths has been determined to be food poisoning. Stop overthinking it."
Jiang Xiao didn't speak, but unfortunately he was too stupid. Even though his intuition told him that things shouldn't be that simple, he couldn't find any logical flaws.
"Still feeling down?"
"Yeah, it's hard to be happy."
Jiang Xiao disliked this sense of the unknown; he preferred to be someone else's "unknown."
"It's alright, it's alright. I have a lot of experience dealing with sullen men. I'm not bragging, but people in the underworld who know me affectionately call me their life mentor."
Ok?
Jiang Xiao glanced at her in surprise. Was this woman, who looked like she was from a rough life, actually a psychologist or a relationship guru?
His appearance doesn't seem like that of a life mentor.
Um? ! !
Everyone in the live stream, including Jiang Xiao, stared wide-eyed.
What a wonderful life mentor!
So this is how you direct, right?!
Jiang Xiao screamed, immediately stopping Yang Tao's audacious act; it was simply too daring!
"Well?"
Seeing Jiang Xiao's panicked state, Yang Tao revealed a smug smile.
"Hehehe, I didn't expect you to be sweating so much, bro~"
Faced with the fierce attack in front of him, Jiang Xiao gritted his teeth and vowed to resist to the death!
Damn it, so many people are watching the live stream.
He doesn't have that habit of live streaming!
Even if we take a step back and assume it's a performance...
Even the most sophisticated setups would need to include a special password-protected room or a paid live stream room!
How can someone be taken advantage of for free?
"No way! Tao, we've only known each other for a day, haven't we? This is too hasty, far too hasty! If others find out, won't it ruin your reputation?"
Uh?
Yang Tao blinked her big eyes. She didn't have a good reputation, but she could easily handle a bit of temptation.
"It's alright, it's alright, they won't find out. I'm a very steady person, I can take them down without making a sound."
Everyone:? ? ?
God, they can take on one enemy and not make a sound?
What kind of hitter are you?
Chapter 260 Bearing the Burden
Oh, what a pity~
【Peach, Jiang Shen is no good. If only I could get into this game of Ghost Stories.】
I, Chang Shouchong, a Daoist priest of Wudang, feel sorry for Yang Tao.
[Wudang: ?]
【We don't have such a person in Wudang, thank you!】
Yang Tao smiled as she stared at Jiang Xiao's vitals.
He thought to himself that as long as he had something on him, he wouldn't have to worry about him not obeying him!
Tsk!
Seeing Yang Tao's constipated expression, Jiang Xiao had no choice but to take a tough approach.
As expected.
Jiang Shen has absolutely no concept of chivalry or tenderness towards women.
A simple grappling technique subdued the horny Yang Tao.
"Stop being a nuisance, I'm annoyed!"
"Ouch! Bro, it hurts! Let go! Bro, I'm sorry, I won't be naughty anymore. What's bothering you? I'll help you think of a solution!"
Jiang Xiao only let go of Yang Tao's hand after she repeatedly begged for mercy.
"Help me think of a solution? It's like this, I... I feel like the dean and the others are hiding something from me. Two people died today, and although I feel the dean's handling of the matter was ultimately too hasty."
Yang Tao looked at Jiang Xiao carefully and realized that he didn't seem to be joking, so she leaned down and echoed him.
"I think so too, there's definitely something wrong with this dean! But, but the night is long, can't we talk about this tomorrow?"
Studio:
[Sister Yangtao, please, please keep this position and don't move.]
Wow, that kneeling posture... to be honest, it's definitely worth me taking the lead.
