Chapter 1101 - 1101 The Same Problem
1101 The Same Problem
“Oh my, I’ve long heard from Xiao Jing that she has a fairly close friend who has a good temper and nice personality, and who’s also a kind person. This friend will help her out every time she runs into any difficulties. I suppose you’re the person whom Xiao Jing speaks about! My Xiao Jing doesn’t have many good friends. It’s so good that you think of her and have come to visit her,” Jiang Yi said with a smile.
Judging from the glint in her eyes, it was as if she was not looking at Cheng Gu, but at the G.o.d of Fortune!
As long as she could manage to get some money from Cheng Gu today, it was not an issue for her even if she had to wait on him or sing high praises of him or take very good care of him.
“Oh, she has even told you about me! I thought she would just forget about me…” Cheng Gu lowered his head and said embarra.s.sedly.
!!“That’s right, she has mentioned you more than once! She says she’s very grateful and that she’s looking for an opportunity to invite this friend over to our house, but hasn’t found the chance yet. I never expect you to come over yourself! This is really fate!” Jiang Yi said.
Actually, Tan Jing had never mentioned anything about Cheng Gu at home. Even Xia Wen did not know about the existence of this person.
Tan Jing had never brought home any friends since she was young. When it came to the topic of friends, it would be more accurate to say that Tan Jing refused to make any friends at all. She felt that she did not deserve to have friends!
Tan Jing’s first job was not something she expected. The moment she graduated, she started doing odd jobs in a canteen. She was in charge of was.h.i.+ng the dishes and pots every day and rinsing the vegetables needed for each day. There were more than 2,000 people in the entire factory and there were only two canteen staff rinsing the vegetables, an old master and her.
This old master took very good care of Tan Jing and even taught her many shortcuts. He would tell her about his experiences in his life and she benefited greatly from every session.
Not long after, this old master retired and his daughter took over his position. This was because Tan Jing was about the same age as his daughter and the two girls had hit it off very well. They could chat about everything under the sun.
For some reason, Jiang Yi found out about this. At that time, Tan Jing’s salary was only about 30 dollars a month, which was barely enough for her living expenses. Every month, she still had to send eight dollars to her family. One day, Jiang Yi took advantage of Tan Jing’s day off to go to the canteen to cause a scene and cheated the old master’s daughter out of a lot of money.
Tan Jing felt very apologetic about this matter, so she quickly cut off all contact with the girl and quit the factory job to work elsewhere. When she found a new job, she tried her best to repay the money that Jiang Yi had taken.
From then on, Tan Jing did not make friends with anyone else, regardless of gender.
Tan Jing felt that being her friend seemed to be akin to going through suffering. As long as it was someone or something related to Tan Jing, Jiang Yi would do everything she could to get some benefits from them. She would not give up until she achieved her goal.
“I haven’t done much. We’re friends, so it’s only right for us to help each other,” Cheng Gu said gently.
After chatting for a long time, Jiang Yi had a rough understanding of Cheng Gu’s temperament. She sat down enthusiastically beside him and held his hand as she said, “What’s your name? Where do you live? What do you do now? How long have you known our Xiao Jing?”
This series of questions stunned Cheng Gu. Was this how the Tan family treated their guests? Why did every Tan family member come over to ask him these questions? Furthermore, they were all the same and even in the same order.
Out of courtesy, Cheng Gu answered Jiang Yi’s question in full detail. Jiang Yi’s expression then changed a little. He had an unstable job and he came from an ordinary family. He also did not live in the same area as other rich people in the capital. The only good thing about him was that he was quite handsome. Apart from that, there was nothing impressive about him.
Jiang Yi’s initial enthusiasm gradually died down. She sized up Cheng Gu and said, “Then… did you come empty-handed?”
“Oh… I was really in a hurry to contact Tan Jing. I left in a rush and didn’t have time to buy any gifts for you.” Cheng Gu quickly took out 100 dollars from his wallet and handed it to Jiang Yi. “Take this money as a gift from me. I hope you don’t mind.”
