Chapter 354: Confession (2)

The more Wang Yunmei listened, the more shocked she became. It was as if she was listening to a story.

After a long while, she finally regained her senses. She couldn’t help but look at her son, sister, and brother-in-law and ask, “You all… know about this?”

As Jian Ai’s mother, she did not know!

They nodded silently.

“Mom, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I didn’t know how to tell you, so I’ve been waiting for the right opportunity,” Jian Ai whispered.

She had never thought of hiding it from anyone from the beginning. She did all this for these people in front of her.

However, it was always difficult to speak. After all, she was still a child in the eyes of others.

The impact of this matter was not small for Wang Yunmei. It was not that she did not believe in her daughter, but as a mother, she was worried as her daughter had silently caused such a huge commotion.

She was worried that she would be cheated or go astray.

After all, her daughter was only fourteen years old. How could she… open a real estate company?

She did not even have an identity card!

Moreover, where did she get the money?

It was no wonder Wang Yunmei thought poorly of things. This was her most instinctive reaction as a mother. She couldn’t help but look at Jian Ai seriously. “Xiao Ai, tell Mom the truth. Do you own this company?”

Jian Ai also nodded thoughtfully.

Wang Yunmei said, “Where did you get the money?”

She had to clarify this matter. If someone used her daughter to do something illegal, she would call the police immediately.

“Mom still remembers what happened between Li Yunmei and me, right? Actually, at the police station, I asked for more than one million yuan from Li Yunmei’s father. I asked for three million yuan. I asked him to write two checks and left the two million yuan one for myself!”

Jian Ai pursed her lips and said, “Actually, I already had plans to start my own business at that time!”

Wang Yunmei’s heart thumped when she heard this. Her usually obedient daughter was hiding such a significant matter from her?

Three million yuan…

The one million yuan check Jian Ai received shocked Wang Yunmei, which was not the only truth.

Her daughter asked Li Qiang for three million yuan. How did she dare to ask for that?

For a moment, Wang Yunmei felt that she never truly understood her daughter.

Looking at her mother’s reaction, Jian Ai felt her heart ache. She quickly said, “Mom, I know that all of this is unacceptable, but I hope you can believe me. I’m starting a business. I have the ability.”

“Xiao Ai, it’s not that your mother doesn’t believe you. She’s just worried about you,” Wu Shaoqi suddenly said. As a parent, he could empathize with Wang Yunmei’s thoughts.

Wang Yunmei came back to her senses and tried her best to tone down as she said to Jian Ai, “It’s not that I don’t believe you, but you’re only fourteen years old. How can you do these things alone?”

“Xiao Ai said that she established the company with the help of a friend.” Wang Yunzhi quickly spoke up for Jian Ai.

However, it was okay if she didn’t mention it. When Wang Yunmei heard that there was another person, she immediately became more vigilant. “Who?”

She was worried that her daughter was too young and people would take advantage of that.

Jian Ai opened her mouth, but Bai Zhou’s appearance in her mind instantly changed to another person. “Ji Haoyu!”

Wang Yunmei was instantly stunned when she heard this. This name sounded familiar, but it suddenly appeared in her ears, causing her to be stunned for a moment.

Three seconds later, Wang Yunmei came to a realization. Her expression was even more surprised than before. “Young Master Ji, Ji Haoyu?”
