Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 314: I’ll Give You A Million Yuan

Shao Qiyun’s eyes lit up. “Really? I can really marry into the Ji Family? You’re willing to accept me?” She was actually lucky enough to experience such a thing?!

Old Master Ji ignored Ji Buwang’s gaze and nodded. “Yes, as long as you agree to one condition.”

“What condition?” Shao Qiyun was delighted to hear that there was just one condition. “Tell me, I’ll agree to it. Not just one condition. Even three or four will be fine.” Everything could be negotiated after she got married.

“No need. One condition is enough, as it will be impossible for you to agree to any other conditions after you agree to this one.”

“What kind of condition is that?” Why couldn’t she agree to something else just because she’d already agreed to this one?

“You can’t even guess?” Old Master Ji was amused. action

“Hurry up and say it. I’ll definitely agree.” Shao Qiyun was anxious.

Old Master Ji smiled and said his last few words. “The only condition is—that you die. As long as you die.”

“What?” Shao Qiyun’s expression changed drastically. “What do you mean as long as I die? What kind of condition is this!”

“I don’t have a choice either. Who asked Xiao Wu to lose his biological father? I only have two grandsons. Buwang can’t marry you. If you insist on marrying someone, you can only marry his older brother. I’m an open-minded parent. Even after he’s dead, you don’t want to let him off and you insist on marrying into the Ji Family. You can only have a ghost marriage then.”

Old Master Ji said in advance, “A ghost marriage is a feudal superstitious event. I can’t guarantee that it will work, but seeing that you’re so sincere, I can still help you.”

How could Shao Qiyun not tell that Old Master Ji was messing with her? He was basically telling her that if she wanted to marry into the Ji Family, she would have to die.

But how could she bear to die? How could she die!

Shao Qiyun looked at the calm and seemingly easygoing Old Master Ji and felt inexplicably terrified. With such a person in the Ji Family, it probably wouldn’t be easy for her to marry into the family. Unfortunately, Xiao Wu wouldn’t acknowledge her either.

Shao Qiyun’s face turned green, and she was forced to implement the second plan.

“You’re ruthless!” She took a deep breath. “I know you despise me, so it’s fine if I don’t marry into the Ji Family, but you can’t just dismiss me like that. I gave birth to Xiao Wu, and it’s true that your good grandson took my innocence. I risked my life to give birth to Xiao Wu and leave him offspring. Even if I have not performed meritorious deeds, I have worked hard. You have to give me a sum of money.”

“Money?” Old Master Ji raised his brows. “You still want money?” She was indeed a bold one, huh.

“Of course I want money. Why shouldn’t I? I worked so hard to give birth to him.”

Shao Qiyun thought for a while and finally gritted her teeth and said, “I don’t want too much. Just give me a million yuan. I believe that with your net worth, you’ll have no problem paying this much. I believe the last bloodline of the Ji Family is worth a million yuan. As long as you give me the money, I’ll leave immediately.”

One million yuan would be enough for her to splurge for some time.

Shao Qiyun really dared to open her mouth and speak. One million yuan was already a very large sum in the modern era, let alone in an era when things only cost a few cents.

A 10,000-yuan household was already an honorable household. It was an incredible feat to have a million yuan. Only Shao Qiyun would dare to ask for this much.

Mu Jingzhe looked at Shao Qiyun, who had the same punchworthy expression as last time, and felt speechless. Last time, she had demanded that they give her money, and this time, she had asked Ji Buwang and his grandfather for it. Her appetite was getting bigger and bigger. Just what gave her that confidence?

Mu Jingzhe’s fist clenched as she watched Shao Qiyun. She was about to tell Old Master Ji not to be angry and leave it to her to teach Shao Qiyun a lesson, when Old Master Ji suddenly smiled at Shao Qiyun.

“Haha… It’s been a long time since I encountered something like this. Buwang, how long has it been since I met such a person? She’s asking me for a million, huh. It’s quite refreshing, isn’t it?”

Ji Buwang: “Who would dare say such a thing in front of you?”

Wouldn’t that be like courting death?

“I’m a little angry, but I think it’s very magical.” Old Master Ji looked at Shao Qiyun as if she was some rare item.

Shao Qiyun felt uncomfortable under his gaze. “What are you looking at? Just tell me if you’re going to give it to me or not. No matter what you say, I don’t feel guilty asking for this sum of money. If it weren’t for me, would you have such an outstanding grandson? Xiao Wu is even starting to earn money now.”

She thought for a moment and suddenly looked at Xiao Wu. “Xiao Wu, how much you’re worth in the Ji Family’s eyes now depends on how much they’re willing to give me.”

When she did bad things, Shao Qiyun’s mind was always especially agile and smart.

She was the one who wanted money, but it had become a test of Xiao Wu’s importance to the Ji Family.

Xiao Wu glared at her. “What does this have to do with me?”

Shao Qiyun didn’t retort but she looked at Old Master Ji. Old Master Ji looked at Shao Qiyun and suddenly laughed out loud. “This is really interesting.”

Ji Buwang said helplessly, “Yes, it’s very interesting.”

Old Master Ji sized up Shao Qiyun. “You’re actually quite talented when it comes to asking for money. Although what you said is twisted, it does make sense now that I think about it.”

Old Master Ji pondered it for a moment. “Now that you mention it, we should indeed give you this sum of money. After all, Xiao Wu is very important to us.”

Shao Qiyun’s eyes lit up. “You agree?”

Old Master Ji hummed nonchalantly. “Since you’ve already said that, it won’t be good if we don’t give the money. Actually, it’s not like I can’t give this sum of money. A good grandson like Xiao Wu is even worth ten million yuan, let alone one or two. As long as I have it, I’ll fork out the money without hesitation.”

Shao Qiyun’s eyes lit up, and she suddenly stood up. The way she looked at Xiao Wu was as though she was looking at a mountain of gold. Oh my god, she had only tried to state as much money as she’d thought she could possibly get. She hadn’t expected him to really agree!

Plus, it wasn’t just a million yuan. He’d even directly offered ten million yuan. Ten million yuan was an unthinkable concept!

Shao Qiyun was ecstatic. She subconsciously stretched out her hand in front of Old Master Ji, hoping that he would give the money to her as soon as possible. She was already thinking of ways to spend such a huge sum of money.

She had thought that the heavens couldn’t possibly let her be unlucky all the time. Now, the tables had turned.

“Ten million? Are you really giving her ten million yuan? Or are you only giving her one million yuan?”

Xiao Wu’s expression changed. He wanted to step forward to stop him, but Ji Buwang held him back. Ji Buwang shushed him and asked him to keep watching.

Amid Xiao Wu’s anxiousness and Shao Qiyun’s ecstasy, Old Master Ji suddenly stopped talking impassionately and changed the topic. “Actually, I could give you one million or ten million. Like you said, you’re Xiao Wu’s biological mother. So as long as you treated Xiao Wu well, I could give you anything.”

Shao Qiyun, who was overjoyed, couldn’t react for a moment. “I will. I’ll definitely treat Xiao Wu well in the future.”

“But we’re not talking about the future. We’re talking about the past. After all, we’re settling a past score.” Old Master Ji looked at her with pity. “Shao Qiyun, being good to Xiao Wu is my only request for giving you money. But you… Why didn’t you do it?”

Shao Qiyun froze and couldn’t react for a moment. “What? What do you mean?”

Old Master Ji sighed. “What else could this mean? It means that if you had treated Xiao Wu better in the past, I would have agreed to whatever you said.”

“What about now? Are you not giving the money to me?”

“That’s right.” Old Master Ji nodded matter-of-factly. “You didn’t treat Xiao Wu well previously, so why should I give it to you? Do you think I’m a fool?”
