Chapter 64 – Who was it that hated her so much that they wanted her face ruined? (1)
A few words from Li WangJin and everybody else in the house must suffer with him. There were a lot of things inside the mansion, and it would take a lot of time and effort to pack.
Even though Jiang YaGe had only been there for a month, as Li WangJin and Li ShiZe were both exceptionally fond of her, they had bought her a lot of stuff already. And they were all pricey items that she dared not have the servants help out, worried that they’d take a few with them. She had no choice but to do it all by herself. She was hot and sweaty, and her jade-perfect face was covered in dust. Covered in grime, she no longer looked as vibrant as she normally was.
Luckily, Li WangJin and Li ShiZe were more or less in the same position with each of them being worse than the other, so nobody was picking on anyone else. The two men only have more to pack up than Jiang YaGe. All of them kept themselves busy until almost midnight, especially when they had a point to make and wanted to move out right away.
Now they’d need to look for a hotel to stay at at midnight. In addition, they needed to settle the servants and arrange for hotel rooms for them as well. All these grunt work added together made them even more annoyed and wished they could just drop everything and stopped working.
Li WangJin hated his ex-wife even more. He was certain that Fang JunRong did this to them intentionally. She could have reminded them to move out and not embarrassed them like so. He chose to ignore that fact that he was the one who ignored the reality that they needed to move and chose to stay there instead.
Staying in a hotel for an extended amount of time wasn’t a solution either. Nevermind that staying in a hotel wasn’t as comfortable as staying in one’s own home. Should the words get out, others would think that he couldn’t even afford a house and that would make him lose face.
Ideally, Li WangJin would like to buy a house no worse than their previous one. Unfortunately, he didn’t have a lot of liquid cash and he couldn’t possibly sell more of the company’s stock. He didn’t care for smaller houses that he could afford currently. Not to mention that it wouldn’t be able to house all of their servants. For someone who was used to his level of comfort, he surely wouldn’t let any of the servants go.
Finally, Li ShiZe had to spend his own money to buy a big house, and they were finally able to have a place to stay. As it was so last minute, they ended up spending 10% over market price. Plus, Li ShiZe was also one that was used to a certain level of comfort and would not live in anything worse than what he was used to. In the end, he had spent almost all of his savings.
Li WangJin was glad that at least his son was on his side.
They had only moved in there for just two days when Jiang YaGe apologetically brought her aunty Wang SiXian over.
“ShiZe, I am so sorry. I know you don’t like my aunty and that she had her faults, but she was kicked out of the place that she was staying at and had nowhere to go. Can she stay with us for a few days? She will move out as soon as she gets her own place.
“She is my only family and the one that mother worried about before she passed away. I can’t not watch out for her.”
Jiang YaGe felt very unjust. She didn’t want to take care of her aunty, but her aunty threatened her that if she didn’t help her out, she’d exposed to ShiZe that Jiang YaGe had always known about the relationship between her adopted father and herself. Jiang YaGe had no choice but to do as she was told.
Naturally, Li ShiZe did not like that idea. His parents would not have had the divorce if it wasn’t for Wang SiXian. But, looking at the remorse and sadness on Jiang YaGe, he finally gave in.
“But she better not let me run into her inside the house,” said Li ShiZe coldly. He did like Jiang YaGe a lot, but he, too, has his own principles.
Jiang YaGe quickly gave him her promise.
