Chapter 427 Wolf Ambition
"When I went to visit the former residence of Tokyo, there was a tour group led by a tour guide next to me. They were chattering and there were two Chinese aunties who looked to be in their fifties, like Aunt Liu in my family. Every time the tour guide said something, the aunties would curse at me at the bottom of the stairs. The tour guide was talking about the history of Tokyo, and the two of them were discussing Tokyo's messy history. The entire capital had been bombed several times, and the buildings had been renovated and rebuilt for at most a few decades... Don't mention it, later I asked Ino and the others, and they found out that what the aunties said was really true..."

"Yesterday, I took the subway to Kamakura High School Station. You don't know how big the Shinjuku Bus Station is. It's like a maze. I was so confused after turning around and around. There were so many people that they had to walk around me, otherwise they were afraid that I would be squeezed. But these grown men were squeezed so hard that their faces turned blue. The funniest thing is that as locals, they also led me the wrong way..."

"When you get to Kamakura High School Station, you can see Enoshima. There are Chinese people taking pictures everywhere. You know what, the place where the sea and the street meet is exactly the same as the scene in the anime movie. Master, have you seen Makoto Shinkai's movies? It's exactly the same..."

"Anyway, I was exhausted this time. I used up all my energy, just like that little robot that had used up all the power in its battery. I feel like I don't want to travel in the next few years. It's too tiring... Master?"

in the tent.

Jiang Yao lay on her side, stroking Chen Yuan's hair with her fingertips, while her other hand supported her cheek.

Chen Yuan lay on his side, his eyes squinting with sleepiness.

"Hmm?" He responded.

"Are you listening to me?" Jiang Yao pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.

"I've been listening." Chen Yuan changed to a more comfortable position.

There was a heating blanket in the tent, which was really warm. His frozen body had now regained consciousness. Lying on his side in Yaoyao's arms, he inexplicably felt that this small space was very comfortable and safe.

In addition to the fresh smell of air after the rain, the nose was also filled with Jiang Yao's body fragrance.

It's so lazy and comfortable that it's hard not to feel sleepy.

Most importantly, he was really tired.

"If you're tired, you can take a nap. I won't disturb you. If you keep chattering, you'll find me annoying."

"How could I think you're annoying? I've never felt that way, okay?" Chen Yuan's voice was slow and leisurely, with the corners of his lips curled up.

Perhaps only after experiencing pain can people know how precious happy times are.

Compared to when he just climbed up the Iron Curtain Tower exhaustedly, Chen Yuan now felt like he was in heaven.

He doesn't want to sleep.

Once you fall asleep, time will slip away from your fingers. When you open your eyes again, it is the next day. It is time to go back to Mingzhu City again. You will be caught in a busy dilemma and there will always be things to do.

So, slow down...slow down even more.

Chen Yuan thought as he stared at the dark sky through the transparent film on top of the tent.

"Did you...have a fight with my sister when you went back?" Jiang Ning suddenly asked hesitantly.

"What's the quarrel about?"

"That means they didn't quarrel. It seems like they spent a few sweet days together and they don't want to come back."

Jiang Yao completely wronged him.

Chen Yuan thought.

He has been working non-stop since he returned. How can he get enough sleep in a few days?
Chen Yuan glanced at Jiang Yao.

There was some hesitation immediately.

This quiet time for two people to talk is actually a good time to talk about what happened in Mingzhu City. After all, Jiang Yao has the right to know about what's going on at home. It's true that her personality is childish, but she is an adult after all, and not as immature as she appears.

However, he told Yaoyao, who was ignorant of the world, about the current situation in person.

Chen Yuan actually felt a little bit reluctant.

"Yao Yao..."

"What's wrong, young master?" Jiang Yao opened her watery eyes and looked at him confusedly.

"Be serious. I have something to tell you." Chen Yuan sat up, coughed a few times, and looked into her eyes. "It's very important."

Jiang Yao noticed that Chen Yuan's expression was different from before. She was stunned for a moment, then she sat up straight, with her hands tangled together nervously.

"Strange... What do you want to say, Master?"

"I went back to Mingzhu City this time," Chen Yuan took a deep breath, "and actually encountered some problems. They are related to you and your sister. Be prepared. I will try to be brief... Your family may go bankrupt."

"Ah!?" Her eyes widened instantly.

"Don't be surprised. Even if I went through the whole process, it's still complicated to explain... Are you aware that your mother's company has not been doing well?"

"not sure."

Jiang Yao had not yet recovered from the shock caused by Chen Yuan's brief words, and her delicate face was a little dazed.

"This is the premise. Because your mother's company was not doing well, she has been running it at her own expense, completely mixing up public and private funds. The bills in the finance department are so messy that they are unbearable to look at. Supervision was lost two years ago. And she didn't want to see the company go bankrupt. I don't know if it was because of the anger in her heart or something else, so she invested all the assets under your sisters' names into the company."

"This...does my sister know about this?" Jiang Yao asked in disbelief.

"She knows everything, so I came back to Tokyo to pick you up, and she also hopes that I can tell you tactfully. In the past few days since I returned, your sister and I have been busy with this matter. There is a fact I must tell you," Chen Yuan looked into Jiang Yao's eyes, "your mother has been arrested for illegal operations and is now in the detention center." Jiang Yao stood up immediately.

No matter what, Jiang Ruxue is her biological mother.

No matter how strained family relationships may be, it cannot change the fact that blood is thicker than water.

"Don't be nervous," Chen Yuan hurriedly comforted Jiang Yao, "At least she didn't suffer much. We have already informed the detention center. At most, she will be locked up. She won't suffer too much."

"When did this happen? Why are you telling me now?" Jiang Yao asked anxiously.

Things like breaking the law.

In the eyes of a girl like her who had never made any big mistakes since childhood, the matter was really serious, not to mention that the person had already been caught.

"It's useless to tell you. Do you want you to rush back from Tokyo alone? Your sister and I were also confused at the time, so we prioritized discussing countermeasures to solve the problem."

Chen Yuan coaxed Jiang Yao to sit down and tried to calm her down.

Fortunately, although Yaoyao was anxious, she did not lose her mind. After Chen Yuan's persuasion, she calmed down and let him continue to explain the situation.

"In essence, this is not a simple illegal operation, but a deliberate scheme. When the company was in urgent need of funds, someone prepared a new project for your mother's company. If it was successful, the salaries of so many employees would be guaranteed, and the company would be able to revive. Obviously, those people knew the industry very well, and they also knew that if your mother did not violate the rules, it would be impossible to produce the corresponding qualifications, so she fell for it."

Chen Yuan continued, "As early as half a year ago, the outcome of this matter had already been settled. No one can change this fact. Even though she knew she was taking a risk, she still chose this path out of a sense of luck."

"Then how do we rescue my mother? She won't really go to jail, will she?" Jiang Yao asked with a frown.

"I've hired a lawyer. If you can pay off the debt, you shouldn't have to go to jail. But," Chen Yuan didn't know how to put it more tactfully, so he just said directly: "I think selling all the assets won't be enough. Your sister is already sorting out the family savings and has sold the house under her name."

“Do you want to pay back so much money?”

"Correct."

"I...I still have some money."

"how much do you have?"

"My live broadcast account brings in hundreds of thousands of income every month. Adding some pocket money in my bank card, is more than 700,000 enough?" Jiang Yao looked at Chen Yuan expectantly with a gleam in her eyes.

"Miss, it's not even enough to fill the gaps between your teeth." Chen Yuan said helplessly.

"What should I do? I owe so much money, I can't pay it back..."

"Your sister is now planning to sell the company's most valuable building," Chen Yuan prepared his words and carefully bewitched him, "This is not enough, so we have to borrow money, right?"

"Borrow money?" Jiang Yao bit her lip tightly. "The problem is who can I borrow from? I don't have any friends."

She felt so aggrieved that she was about to cry.

Apart from Xiao Wan, where could she find anyone to borrow money from? Those friends were all online friends.

After all, Yaoyao is just a fat otaku with no interpersonal relationships.

It's funny, when it comes to money, the rich person she thinks of is Jiang Ning.

"It's okay. We will shoulder the responsibility together if something goes wrong. After all, the three of us will be a family and get married in the future." Chen Yuan finally revealed his wolfish ambition and said softly, "My money is your money, right?"

"That won't work... Master, I know you feel sorry for me and want to help," Jiang Yao said, holding back her tears, still having some sense, "but I can't ask you for money to pay off a debt for no reason, and my sister won't allow it..."

"Your sister, your sister, it's already this critical moment, and you're still talking about her, can't you have some ideas of your own?" Chen Yuan became a little anxious after hearing her answer.

Why do you have to learn this from Jiang Ning when there are so many things to learn?

The two sisters were surprisingly unanimous on this point and were unwilling to accept his gift.

How could Chen Yuan not be anxious?

"Or, I can go borrow from my grandparents... They love me very much, so I should be able to borrow it."

"Ningning has already tried the same method, okay?"

"Did my sister borrow it?"

"No."

"Then... Master, I won't ask for it for nothing. I'll borrow it from you, okay? I can work to pay off the debt in the future, and I won't buy bags and cosmetics anymore," Jiang Yao thought for a while, and said pitifully, "I can also live in a rental house. I still have a lot of jewelry to sell, and I'll return it to you after selling it."

"Okay!" Chen Yuan perked up when he heard this. He was waiting for this. "But there must be a deadline for paying back the money. If you can't pay it back by the deadline, you must agree to one of my conditions!"

"What conditions?" Jiang Yao pursed her lips, having a bad feeling in her heart.

"If you can't pay it back... not only do you have to marry me, but you also have to help me deal with your sister and make her give in on the principle of marrying me together. How do you think?"
