"I, I'm actually not Mr. Jiang's girlfriend, just a friend," Lin Bingbing quickly explained. Although she wished to hold that title, she knew it was not something to be taken lightly.
"Sister Bingbing, are you secretly in love with Mr. Jiang?" Shi Ning, being clever, immediately caught on.
Though Lin Bingbing felt a bit embarrassed, she nodded.
"But Mr. Jiang treats you well, Sister Bingbing. He is someone I admire greatly, so we can definitely be good friends from now on," Shi Ning said with a smile. She was smart; since Lin Bingbing and Jiang Chen had a special relationship, she naturally wanted to befriend Lin Bingbing.
"As long as Miss Shi doesn't mind, we can be good friends," Lin Bingbing replied with a slight smile.
"It should be the other way around; you shouldn't dislike me, Sister Bingbing," Shi Ning laughed.
As for Shi Xindi, she didn't dare to speak to Lin Bingbing anymore.
Lin Bingbing's family watched in shock as Shi Ning and Lin Bingbing chatted and laughed like close friends. Their astonishment had yet to subside.
In less than half an hour, the events that unfolded had completely overturned their worldview. The Shi family held Jiang Chen in the same regard as a Demon God.
"Bingbing, come here for a moment; I have something to say to you," Mother Lin beckoned, signaling for Lin Bingbing to come aside.
"Mom, just tell me what you want; there's no need to beat around the bush," Lin Bingbing said lightly.
"It's like this: if you want to marry Mr. Jiang, our family has no objections. Since Mr. Jiang is so remarkable, could you possibly borrow some money from him to help your brother pay off his debts?" Mother Lin said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Bingbing fell silent and only scoffed coldly because she had nothing more to say.
"I'm begging you, Bingbing; you can't just stand by and do nothing! I'm your brother! If I don't have money to pay them back this month, they won't let me off," Elder Brother Lin pleaded.
"Yes, Bingbing; after all, he is your elder brother. Just help him out this once; I promise it will be the last time," Mother Lin added.
Lin Bingbing continued to scoff.
"Mom, how many times have I helped my brother? Don't you keep track? Fifty million is not a small amount! I only have a few tens of thousands on me right now. Why don't you pay back the Shi family's money first and then sell the house, car, and everything valuable? If that's still not enough, there's nothing more I can do," Lin Bingbing said, her eyes filled with disappointment.
"Sister Bingbing, we don't need to worry about the betrothal gifts anymore," Shi Ning said.
"We must pay them back," Lin Bingbing insisted. After all, those were betrothal gifts; how could she accept them?
"Alright." Seeing Lin Bingbing's determination, Shi Ning nodded and said no more.
At the Shi Family Villa, Shi Shengguang dropped Jiang Chen off at home before returning to the hotel to entertain guests. He needed to find a way to suppress some of the rumors circulating that night.
In the tea room, Shi Family Ancestor Master Gao Feng had already prepared tea and was waiting for Jiang Chen. At that moment, it was just Gao Feng and Jiang Chen together.
"Shi Lao, I didn't see your message while I was in seclusion last time. I only saw it when I came out recently and came today; I hope you won't hold it against me," Jiang Chen said politely with a smile.
“Mr. Jiang, you truly have me at a loss. I wouldn’t dare to blame you. As for the whereabouts of the Heavenly Mechanism Twin Rings, I do have some insights,” Shi Gaofeng said as he poured a cup of tea for Jiang Chen, adopting a very humble demeanor in front of him.
“Insights, you say? Please, do share,” Jiang Chen replied, taking a sip of his tea.
