The whole world knows that Mr. Ji is chasing his wife

Chapter 179 Moral Kidnapping

Jiang Di was stunned when he heard this: "Study abroad?"

"Yes." Zhaodi's voice was very soft, "I think we are going to Australia."

"Oh, why are you speaking so slowly? Let me tell her!" Before Zhaodi could finish her words, the person next to her snatched her phone away. "Hey, is this the kindhearted Jiang Di?"

A middle-aged woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I am." Jiang Di responded.

"Hello, hello, I'm Zhaodi's adoptive mother."

"Hello."

"Well, it's like this." The woman cleared her throat, spit on the ground, and continued: "You also know that in small towns like ours, the teaching staff are very poor. These teachers only get a dead salary. Irresponsible to students! Zhao Di’s grades here are getting worse day by day. I guess she won’t be able to compare with those students in the city during the college entrance examination.”

Jiang Di frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Don't forget that our family is poor, but I also put a lot of thought into my children's affairs! I met an agent a few days ago, and he said that as long as he gave me money, he could send Zhaodi to study abroad. I thought, she must go abroad. It’s better than staying in our small town, right?”

Jiang Di immediately understood the purpose of the call. She moistened her lips and asked, "How much did the agent say?"

"No more, no more." The woman replied with a smile, "Five hundred thousand is enough!"

Jiang Di took a breath and moved his eyebrows slightly.

Seeing Jiang Di's silence on the other end of the phone, he asked again: "Ms. Jiang, did you hear that?"

"I heard it." Jiang Di rubbed his brows, "Besides the price and country, what else did the agent tell you? Which school did you attend in the past and what other specific arrangements are there? Do you know about it?"

"Yes! I have a piece of information here. I'll ask Zhaodi to send it to you later!"

Qiao silently took the pot from the kitchen and placed it on the dining table.

Seeing that Jiang Di's face was not very good, she whispered, "Who is it?"

Jiang Di pursed his lips and said to the phone: "I'm going to eat now. I'll ask Zhao Di to send me the information later."

"Okay, okay, Miss Jiang, you eat first."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Di sighed helplessly.

"What's wrong?" Qiao silently put the prepared dishes neatly on the table.

Jiang Di rested his elbows on the table, feeling a little distressed: "I just said that clothes costing several thousand yuan were too expensive and inappropriate, but I didn't expect that my appetite is much greater than this."

"What do you mean? This is a call from a student you sponsored?" Qiao Momo handed Jiang Di a pair of chopsticks.

"Well, if you want to study abroad, go to Australia, and ask me for half a million."

"Study abroad? Another five hundred thousand?!" Qiao Momo was almost scalded to death by the juice from a beef ball. "Isn't this a lion's mouth?!"

She pointed in the direction of the kitchen: "I've already lived a life of eating instant noodles, but their family still wants half a million?"

"Alas..." Jiang Di let out a long sigh, "It's not that I don't have half a million, and it's not that I'm stingy and don't want to give it, it's just...Momo, can you understand? I sponsored a poor student, but within a few days she asked me for it. Why does it feel weird to say that you want to go abroad for half a million..."

"It's quite strange." Qiao Momo put a beef ball into Jiang Di's bowl and said, "Why do I feel that you have been kidnapped by morality?"

"Moral kidnapping?"

"Yes, they just take advantage of your sympathy and then ask for endless demands from you. Anyway, you have just met, and their demands are a bit excessive."

At this time, Jiang Di's cell phone rang.

"They sent me information about studying abroad."

Jiang Di clicked on it and saw a school he had never heard of written on it.

Looking further down, it’s even more incredible.

It turns out that 500,000 yuan is just the agency fee for studying abroad. After that, tuition and accommodation fees will have to be paid separately, and the price is not low. After calculation, an additional 200,000 to 300,000 yuan will be paid every year.

Jiang Di felt a headache when he saw it, so he handed the phone to Qiao Momo: "It's really a kidnapping. The amount is almost as much as the ransom I paid for my previous kidnapping."

Qiao silently took the phone and looked at it, then put it aside.

"Stop looking and eat quickly. I really don't have any appetite to look at it anymore."

Jiang Di obediently picked up the chopsticks, his brows still furrowed, "I will take some time to go to Chengdong Town tomorrow to see how Zhaodi is doing at school."

"Well, you really need to go and have a look." Qiao silently agreed, "Thinking about it, you were so generous with your funding at the time that you didn't fully understand this student."

Jiang Di also had some regrets: "Who knew it would be like this? I just wanted to do a good deed."

"In today's society, it's not easy to be a good person!" Qiao Momo thought about how he lost his job after exposing the crimes of the bad guys, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

In this way, what was supposed to be a happy celebration of a hot pot meal, but the two of them finished all the dishes in silence with their own concerns.

……

The next day, Jiang Di got up early and prepared to go to Chengdong Town No. 1 High School to see Zhao Di.

She had just finished cleaning up, and as soon as she opened the door and stepped out, she met Ji Yan who was also preparing to go out.

"morning."

He greeted her against the morning light.

"morning."

Jiang Di replied briefly, then walked toward the elevator entrance. The elevator just came, and Jiang Di stepped in.

Since she didn't want to take the same elevator with Ji Yan, she pressed the door close button several times.

Unexpectedly, Ji Yan rushed up and blocked the elevator door with his arm.

He walked into the elevator and stood next to Jiang Di, the familiar fragrance of wood lingering on the tip of her nose.

Jiang Di pressed the button to go to the first floor. Seeing that Ji Yan didn't move, he kindly reminded: "Which floor are you going to?"

"It's also on the first floor." Ji Yan replied.

Jiang Di curled his lips and said no more.

As the elevator went down, the two of them didn't talk to each other until the voice broadcast announced that they had arrived on the first floor, and Jiang Di walked out first.

When she was about to reach the parking space, she heard subtle footsteps behind her. She turned around suddenly and saw Ji Yan. She asked Ji Yan impatiently: "Why are you following me?"

Ji Yan took out the car key from his pocket and pressed it. The McLaren next to Jiang Di flashed its headlights, startling her.

"I didn't follow you, the car happened to be parked here." Ji Yan explained.

Jiang Di rolled his eyes to hide his embarrassment: "Okay."

She turned around and walked to her Porsche while muttering "When did I buy a new car?"

Without saying goodbye, Jiang Di drove the car directly out of the underground garage.

The cars merged into the street, and Jiang Di caught a glimpse of the red McLaren in the rearview mirror, driving slowly and slowly behind him.

Her eyebrows frowned slightly: "You still said you weren't following me?"
