Young Master Qin Keeps Coveting Me After I Beat Him Up Chapter 62 - Did I Ask Him To Raise Me?

Chapter 62: Did I Ask Him To Raise Me?

The next day, Jiang Xun had just finished cla.s.s and walked out of the building where lectures were held when she saw Jiang Chengye and Feng Nianzhen waiting at the entrance of the building.

“Jiang Xun!” Chengye hurriedly called out to her, afraid that she would pretend not to see them and ignore him. He felt that she would definitely do such a thing.

“Why are you here?” Jiang Xun asked him, completely ignoring Nianzhen. Even if Nianzhen was standing right in front of her, she would not acknowledge her stepmother’s existence.

“Delete your account on Shanpin immediately and stop streaming!” Chengye said in a low voice.

“Yeah, Jiang Xun, it would be bad if your video was seen by people who know our family,” Nianzhen chimed in, though her intentions were far from pure. Chengye had originally planned to come here alone today, but she’d tagged along because she was worried that Chengye would lose his temper and argue with Jiang Xun.

She couldn’t let Chengye bring Jiang Xun home! It wasn’t easy driving her out to begin with!

“Your father is a well-respected person in the capital. Whether it’s a business rival or a friend, they will laugh at him when they see this,” Nianzhen said, adding fuel to the fire.

“Well, it’s not like I can’t delete my account,” Jiang Xun began, noting how the corner of Chengye’s mouth moved slightly, “But are you going to compensate me for the money I lost? Since you refuse to pay for my tuition and living expenses, the only thing I can do is earn the money myself. And yet, you won’t let me do that, either. Isn’t that unfair?”

At this point, Chengye had already given up on asking Jiang Xun to go after Qin Mufeng. He couldn’t win against her stubbornness.

Right now, the only thing he wanted her to do was come home and not make a fool of herself!

He thought that it was fine even if she didn’t go after Qin Mufeng. She could just obediently be the eldest daughter of the Jiang family at home and behave herself. That would be doing him a huge favor.

“As long as you delete your account and behave yourself when you go home, I’ll give you the money,” Chengye finally conceded, gritting his teeth.

As soon as Nianzhen heard that, her expression changed and she immediately started thinking of a way to stop him.

Jiang Xun saw Nianzhen’s reaction, so she said to Chengye, “Alright, I’ve made a total of 350,000 yuan from my two livestreams, and I’ve made more each time than the previous one. Since I’m supposed to livestream at least four times a month, I won’t ask you for more than 1,000,000 yuan.”

“I just signed a contract with Shanpin yesterday and became a contract host for them. The penalty for breaching the contract is 10 million yuan,” Jiang Xun said casually. “In addition, Shanpin will arrange business events for me, so it’s not just a one-time payment. I’ve asked around already—to get a streamer like myself, who can attract a large number of viewers, to partic.i.p.ate in an event, you have to be prepared to pay at least one million yuan.”

“I’m not going to be too calculative with you. I’ll just take it as an average and charge you at two million per event. If I partic.i.p.ate twice a year, it would be 40 million in ten years. I think that’s reasonable. My appearance fee will definitely be much higher than this in the future, and I haven’t even taken inflation into account yet. Even the roasted sweet potatoes on the street have gone up in price, so it’s impossible for my appearance fees to remain unchanged for ten years, right? In summary, I’ll charge you 40 million for your family ties.”

“After adding all that up, it’ll be a total of fifty million. In addition, you’ll pay me one million every month.” Seeing Chengye’s face getting darker and darker, Nianzhen, who was at the side, widened her eyes and looked frightened. Jiang Xun’s mood improved at this, and so she said with a smile, “I’ll go back with you if you agree to this.”

“Are you crazy?” Nianzhen exclaimed in a low voice before Chengye could speak. “Are you crazy because you’re short of money? Why are you so greedy? How… How could you extort your father like this?”

She hadn’t even gone back to their house yet, and now she was asking for 50 million yuan? And on top of that, they’d have to pay her 1 million yuan every month?

She had to be dreaming!

“What kind of blackmail is this?” Jiang Xun pursed her lips. “This is my income as a streamer. If you don’t want to let me work, then shouldn’t you compensate for it? Otherwise, why wouldn’t I do it? It’s not like I’m stealing or robbing anyone. The short videos and livestream content I’ve made are legal and legitimate. There’s nothing to be ashamed of.”

Jiang Xun asked impatiently, “Just tell me. Do you want to give me the money or not?”

“Jiang Xun, you’re too much! It’s already not easy for your father to earn money…” Nianzhen couldn’t help but think that it was a good thing she’d tagged along with Chengye today. She didn’t dare imagine what would have happened if Chengye had actually agreed to give Jiang Xun the money.

“It’s not like I’m forcing you to pay me.” Jiang Xun glared at Nianzhen. “Don’t come to me if you can’t give it to me!”

“You’re already 18 years old and an adult. Your father has no obligation to raise you,” Nianzhen said in a low voice.

“Did I ask him to raise me?” Jiang Xun asked curiously, “I can earn my own money!”

Nianzhen was struck speechless.

“If you don’t want to give me money and you think I’m embarra.s.sing you, then you might as well make a statement and cut off your ties with me.” Jiang Xun shrugged and turned to leave.

“Jiang Xun, I have many ways to make you unable to do it!” Chengye had originally only planned to give her some pocket money to support her for a month. Even if Nianzhen hadn’t said anything, he wouldn’t have given Jiang Xun so much as 50 million.

However, Jiang Xun was not afraid of him. She even pursed her lips in disdain. “If you are not afraid of losing face, then do it! No matter what you do, you’re the one who’s going to mar his reputation!”

She snorted coldly. As long as Chengye was obsessed with maintaining a clean public image, he would never be able to even touch her.

Chengye was stunned.

In truth, he’d thought the same as Jiang Xun had—that if he were to humiliate Jiang Xun, he would also be dragged down into the mud. If he tried to humiliate her another way, Jiang Xun, who was utterly shameless, would not mind at all, but he himself would lose face, too.

Therefore, as long as he tried to poke Jiang Xun, she would definitely have a way to do the same to him!

“…”

He actually could not deal with her!

Jiang Xun snorted, raised her chin, turned around, and left with a wave of her hand.

It was then that Nianzhen let out a sigh of relief. At the very least, Chengye hadn’t managed to bring Jiang Xun home, nor had he given her any money.

“Chengye, let’s think of another way. There will always be a way,” she said, holding onto Chengye’s arm and comforting him.

All things considered, she hadn’t expected Jiang Xun to be able to earn so much money now.

After sending Chengye away, Jiang Xun went back to the dormitory and posted the completed road map on Weibo and Shanpin.

[This Sat.u.r.day morning at 7 am, we will depart from Beijing University’s entrance.] she said.

Soon after, the comments section was filled with people crying.

[You are no longer that considerate little cutie. 7 a.m.’s way too early, I can’t get up]

[It already wasn’t easy for me to come here on Sat.u.r.day, but now I have to get up even earlier than I normally do for work.]

[It takes an hour to get from my home to Beijing University. Do I have to depart from my home at 6 am?]

The haters were much more diligent, however.

Split Underpants: [I’ll look for a spot to see if Jiang Xun is really running, or if there is a car pulling her. When the time comes, you are welcome to watch the fight against deception in my live stream room.]

Huang Jiajia saw what this person said and was disgusted. “He is clearly taking advantage of your traffic.”

Daxin cursed. “How shameless!”

It was unknown if [ Milk Candies ] and [ Sc.r.a.p Pickers of the past ] had ganged up with [ Split Underpants ] or not, but the two of them also said that they would find a random place in the map to wait for Jiang Xun and help the netizens fight the fake livestream.
