Zhan Jing and the others guessed right, because Zhuge Mingshan really suffered a big loss, which made her furious.
"Hmph, you forced into this."
"I was going to let it go," Zhuge Mingshan muttered through gritted teeth inside the room.
Her legs were sore and she wanted to sit down, but as soon as her bottom touched the seat, she felt a sharp pain, and her face contorted.
"This ti my grades weren’t enough, but still better than those idiots, but..."
Rembering bringing ho the report card, starting with her grandparents, it was all criticism and education, and her father, being blindly filial, had given her a good physical lesson.
Zhuge Mingshan truly didn’t understand if her grades were the lowest among her peers, she would accept such severe punishnt.
But even if her grades had slipped a bit, they were still way better than those idiots, yet those idiots faced no punishnt, only she got a harsh lesson.
Thinking of the looks those idiots gave her really angered her in every way.
"One day, I’m going to show them how powerful I am."
"I’m going to surpass them."
"Make them beg ."
Looking at the chaos outside, Zhuge Mingshan bit her lip tightly, repeatedly telling herself not to fall; she must hold out to see them begging.
This wish isn’t bad, but to achieve it, Zhuge Mingshan understands it will take a while, at least until she has money, because without money, standing up in front of these people is impossible.
As a student with nothing, Zhuge Mingshan wants to make money; besides targeting the quail egg business of Zhan Jing and them, what else could she do?
"Previously, I let you escape once; with sumr vacation approaching, let’s see what you’ll do then."
Zhuge Mingshan doesn’t believe a business with daily transactions and the ability to rake in money would be abandoned so easily.
As long as they continue with the business, Zhuge Mingshan isn’t worried about finding an opportunity.
When the ti cos, she will make them cough up the recipe; however, this ti, the person she collaborates with must change.
Firstly, they must absolutely have no relation to her family, otherwise, if sothing happens, they’d sell her out imdiately, showing all kinds of justice.
"Since when you all have problems, you sever all kinds of ties, then don’t expect opportunities to make money." Zhuge Mingshan vowed silently.
Zhuge Mingshan racked her brains to find soone suitable, soone with no apparent connection to her, and would listen to her.
Zhuge Mingshan knew quite a few people, but many were associated with the Zhuge Family, and approaching them was out of the question; Zhuge Mingshan worried that once the intention to collaborate was announced, it would be reported back to her family imdiately.
She knew once acts of betrayal were discovered, the days awaiting her would be Japanese-style punishnt.
Busy all day finding a suitable person at ho, she hadn’t gone out; firstly, punishnt wasn’t completed, and secondly, finding a suitable person wasn’t easy.
Last ti, even though it was Zhuge Zhi who notified them, Zhuge Mingshan thought it was definitely Zhan Jing who snitched, otherwise why would the busy Third Uncle pay attention to these things.
Therefore, to prevent leaking secrets, Zhuge Mingshan was even more unwilling to let her presence be seen by Zhan Jing, even just passing by wasn’t acceptable. Sigh, if only they still set up a stall at the front gate like before, but now they set up at the back door, forcing her to take a detour,
Hmph, a petty person afraid of losing business, truly the school’s people should see Zhan Jing’s true colors, yet they all say how generous she is.
"I’ve never seen such a petty person," Zhuge Mingshan said angrily.
=====
At that mont, the Zhan Jing whom Zhuge Mingshan called petty was on the way to her old ho led by Cai Ming.
Slling the unpleasant, sour-like odor in the carriage, Zhan Jing really found it hard to endure.
Last winter’s trip had already been hard for Zhan Jing to bear, and now sumr travel was even more unbearable.
She didn’t even want to eat anything; the sll alone made her lose her appetite.
"Ni Zi, have so food." Cai Ming couldn’t believe his niece had such a severe reaction.
Clearly, Ni Zi had taken long train rides before; how could she not adapt now?
"I’m not eating," Zhan Jing waved her hand. "I’ll just have so water."
Zhan Jing couldn’t help but wonder, in such an environnt, should she still push Zhao Gang and the others to the South to sell cheap electronics?
Though profitable, the journey South was hot, combined with the malfunctioning air conditioning, offering no coolness; even when the car moved, the incoming wind was hot.
Zhan Jing was really worried, fearing if she persuaded Zhao Gang and them to make big money down South, and sothing happened, what then?
At that point, she’d be a historic sinner; the consequences were really not sothing a young girl like her could bear.
After thinking for a long ti, Zhan Jing concluded that though making money was nice, she needed life to enjoy it; without life, it was all in vain.
With a heart bleeding internally, Zhan Jing crossed out this money-making plan, and the heartache only made her grow thinner.
Cai Ming had no fondness for the Cai Family, even though they were flesh and blood relatives; as for the Gong Family, he had even less favorable views.
"If this ti your grandmother doesn’t cause trouble, then fine; but if she does, watch how I teach them a lesson." Cai Ming really didn’t want the two kids to travel South in such heat, but with their grandmother’s illness and a telegram already sent, could they not go back?
Especially since Cai ina was heavily pregnant, she definitely couldn’t go South, and Zhan Jing and them had already bought tickets to the Northeast, so they decided Cai Ming would take the two kids back.
"Even if she’s sick, seeing that my parents haven’t returned, there probably won’t be any good consequences," Gong Ruwen sighed. "This ti, it was Third Uncle who sent the telegram, so it must be serious."
Third Uncle was a smart person; he wouldn’t do sothing foolish, especially when their family’s situation was improving, so he wouldn’t do anything to offend his family.
"But since my parents aren’t there, grandmother won’t be happy either." If dad went back, Zhang Lan would probably act pitiable and ask Gong Tao to help the siblings.
The issue is, replacing Gong Ruwen going back, would they say such things? As shaless as the Gong family might be, they couldn’t discuss such matters with a child, right? Gong Ruwen thought about how they could save a considerable amount of money for the family, and it lifted his spirits.
"Regarding her happiness, I don’t care." Gong Ruwen almost wished she’d seriously fall ill this ti, then just pass away, and the family would have no more troubles.
"Don’t worry, no matter how unhappy she is, she’ll live a long life." After all, Zhang Lan has a strong desire to live, wanting to see her capable offspring succeed; that determination is indeed strong.
