Chapter 204
Chapter 204
Jiang's mother is quite open-minded.
She didn't notice the tension between Jiang Ning and Bai Ke.
She smiled and explained to Jiang Ning: "Do you remember what your father told you? We went to Diancheng Town that year and were asked to find a person named Li Youlan... At that time, the one who asked us was the Bai family. Her father, Bai Deyao, had dinner with us and helped us a lot."
When Jiang Ning mentioned the name Bai Deyao, he thought of the chatterbox Bai Huasheng.
Alas!
Bai Huasheng and Bai Deyao are the closest father and son, so why is there such a big gap between them?
Bai Deyao, this guy, is dead, but he still makes some troubles and refuses to be honest and reincarnate... I wonder where he is fooling around recently?
Thinking of this unfinished finishing work, Jiang Ning's mood is not very good.
Bai Ke took the initiative to stand up and introduce herself to Jiang Ning: "Hello, my name is Bai Ke, I'm glad to meet you today."
She said "I'm glad" but in fact, her face was full of fake smiles.
What could she be happy about?
Seeing her body being used by a fake, it would be strange to be happy!
Although Bai Ke's current body looks good, it is nowhere near as good as Jiang Ning who grew up spoiled.
Jiang Ning responded perfunctorily: "Yeah, hello, my name is Jiang Ning."
After saying that, she introduced Bai Zhenyu in an even more perfunctory tone: "It's fate that you two have the same surname. She is my lover, Bai Zhenyu."
Hearing the name "lover" again, Bai Zhenyu's face became hot and nervous again.
"Hello, classmate Bai Ke... My name is Bai Zhenyu!"
"Hello."
Bai Ke's eyes swept over Bai Zhenyu calmly and returned to Jiang Ning again.
For Bai Ke, as long as Bai Zhenyu and Lu Xu broke up, Bai Zhenyu would be just a lucky passerby, not worth worrying about.
She didn't need to waste time on Bai Zhenyu.
The only thing that made her unhappy and even wanted to kill was Jiang Ning in front of her.
She was such a shameless thief!
"Okay, let's eat."
Jiang Ma asked the servant to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks for Bai Ke.
"I wonder if our food suits your taste? Try it. If you don't like it, we'll ask the kitchen to make something new."
She entertained Bai Ke, and it was all for Bai Deyao's sake.
So, this hospitality was polite and distant.
Bai Ke felt mixed emotions, and the hand holding the chopsticks was shaking slightly.
She forced herself to pick up a piece of fish, put it on the rice, scooped it up with a spoon, and forced it into her mouth as if she was angry.
The sweet and sour fish meat, with a slight fishy smell, made Bai Ke retch immediately.
Jiang Ma quickly stood up and poured her some water: "Oh, you kid, if you don't like fish, don't eat it. Why are you torturing your stomach?"
This familiar gentle comfort made Bai Ke's nose sour and her voice became weak: "It's okay, Mom... Auntie! It's okay, I can do it, cough cough cough."
Jiang Ning held up her chin and looked at her with a smile: "Oh, Miss Bai Ke, what did you call my mom just now? Did I hear it right? You called her mom? Don't you even recognize your own mom?"
Bai Ke: "..."
Her fingernails pinched the flesh of her palm hard.
Anger once again hit her reason.
She took several deep breaths in succession, then slowly raised her head and pretended to be calm and said: "I just feel that Auntie is like my biological mother. My biological mother, she... has passed away. I haven't heard her voice for a long time and I miss her very much."
Mother Jiang is soft-hearted. After hearing this, she felt very uncomfortable and didn't know what to say.
She could only signal Jiang Ning with her eyes to shut up and not rub salt into the wound.
"Auntie, I'm sorry, I was presumptuous." Bai Ke picked up a tissue, lowered his head, and wiped his eyes: "I... I am a loser, and you laughed at me."
This look of weakness is exactly the same as Jiang Ning before.
The familiar feeling that came over them made both Father Jiang and Mother Jiang silent.
For the soft-hearted Mother Jiang, this familiar feeling would bring her sadness.
But for Father Jiang, this familiar feeling was very scary, and he immediately recalled the chaotic life at home.
My daughter tried to commit suicide, my wife cried, and my career was in a mess...!
Such a life was simply hell!
Father Jiang shuddered, and looked at Bai Ke with a look of inexplicable disgust.
"We were reunited as a family of four, and we were so happy. Why did you suddenly start crying?" Father Jiang glared at Mother Jiang: "What the hell, sit down and eat!"Your meal! Can't you stop eating?"
It seems like she is scolding Jiang Ma, but in fact, she is criticizing Bai Ke.
Bai Ke's heart trembled.
The tears just now may have been a bit of acting, but at this moment, she is really sad.
That's the man she has called dad for nearly 20 years.
How can he be so hard-hearted?
"Ning Ning, come, try this." Jiang Dad picked up a fish ball and put it in Jiang Ning's bowl: "I made it myself, see if it tastes good!"
Jiang Ning ate it very politely and immediately raised her thumbs: "Dad's cooking skills are this!"
After eating this one, she picked up another one for Bai Zhenyu.
"Come on, Zhenyu, try it too. Dad's cooking skills are not worse than the chef at home."
Jiang Ma: "Then try this cold eggplant? I made this! "
She picked up a piece of eggplant for Jiang Ning and another piece for Bai Zhenyu.
Seeing her daughters eating happily, she smiled knowingly.
"Mom, the eggplant you made is amazing!"
"Why don't you two stop working in the company and set up a stall to cook home-cooked dishes? You will definitely make a fortune."
This is very coaxing.
Everyone knows that this sounds fake, but Jiang's father and mother are fooled by it and are coaxed by Jiang Ning.
Looking at the happy family, Bai Ke felt like a lump in his throat. How could he eat?
"Uncle, aunt, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
She stood up in a daze and prepared to leave.
Jiang's mother then gave her a look again: "Oh, you child! It's rare for you to come here. If you don't eat and drink enough and leave, isn't it a slap in the face of our Jiang family? "
Bai Ke looked unhappy, and her smile was uglier than crying: "I... I'm still busy..."
"Then you go and get busy first." Jiang Ma didn't plan to keep her: "By the way, when you came here, you said you had encountered difficulties? What kind of difficulties were they?"
What difficulties could Bai Ke have?
It's nothing more than lack of money.
She could rely on her kung fu to steal and rob, but now is not the era of using cash. She could only rob some mobile phones, bags and the like, and earn a few thousand yuan, or at most ten thousand yuan.
What can such a small amount of money do?
She doesn't have much time!
She needs a lot of money as start-up capital to help Lu Xu, to gain Lu Xu's dependence, and then to gain his favor and complete her own tasks.
Bai Ke didn't care about her face.
She said directly:
"Auntie, to be honest, I want to borrow some money."
