Chapter 60.3: Ji Lin, do you realize that you spent half a million for me just now?

Tang Li felt as if sour water could bubble up from all over her body. She was unwilling, aggrieved, and disappointed. She couldn’t help feeling dissatisfied with Tian Mu on the other end of the phone: “Even if you are busy with work, if you really love me, shouldn’t you be able to find time to be with me? I recently met a little sister and her boyfriend earns more money than you. According to your theory, the more money a man earns, the busier he is. But her boyfriend spends all day with me and this little sister, and he doesn’t even bat an eye when swiping his card. She said she didn’t want something, but he still directly bought everything and took it away. Since we started shopping together just now, I roughly estimated that he has already spent over 500,000 yuan on her in just two hours!”

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became, “When will I be able to spend 500,000 yuan without batting an eye for two hours? Didn’t your boss say that he would give you a large sum of money when the game is officially launched? When will you get that money?”

On the phone, Tian Mu was still comforting Tang Li as usual, using the same words that Tang Li had long been tired of hearing. He said it would happen soon and to be careful recently because his former boss was watching him. He had already been reported to the labor arbitration committee and they must keep a low profile and not let the other side obtain any evidence.

Tang Li was so tired of hearing Tian Mu’s words that her ears were calloused. With Tian Mu being cooped up at home all day, how could he possibly obtain any evidence? What was there to worry about? 

Wasn’t it just that damn partner who recently refused to pay Tian Mu with an excuse he made up? He claimed that Tian Mu’s former company was keeping an eye on him, afraid that there would be complications with the transfer at this time, so the final large commission had to be delayed until things quieted down. He spoke with an air of righteousness, but wasn’t he just withholding payment?!

After hanging up the phone, Tang Li’s mood still didn’t improve. As she turned around, she saw Xiao Rui’s boyfriend buying her a pair of earrings. The two of them leaned in close, whispering to each other, making suggestive gestures and looking like a loving couple, making others envious of their sweetness……

___________

However, Tang Li, who felt sour inside, probably didn’t think about what Bai Duan Duan and Ji Lin were talking about.

Her words were reasonable and sounded humble, but after hearing them, Ji Lin’s expression wasn’t very good. He pursed his lips and said firmly, “I said that box is for you.”

Bai Duanduan was almost in tears, “Ji Lin, just tell me, have I offended you in any way recently?”

Ji Lin frowned and was not very happy, “I spent so much money buying you all these things, and you still think you offended me? I haven’t been good to you? I don’t think it’s you who offended me, it’s me who offended you. Spending money doesn’t win favors.”

At the last sentence, Ji Lin lowered his voice, and although his tone was still calm and composed, for some reason, Bai Duanduan heard a hint of… sadness and grievance in the lingering sound of his voice?

But wait…

“I spent so much money buying you all these things?”

This means…

Bai Duanduan looked up in disbelief and asked, “You mean I don’t have to pay for anything you bought today?”

Ji Lin gave her a glance and felt a bit uneasy, “When did I say you have to pay?”

“No, I mean, Ji Lin, do I need to remind you? You just spent over five hundred thousand yuan, not fifty thousand, not five thousand, not even five yuan?”

“I know how much I spent, and I can see the consumption message on my phone.”

“Then…”

Ji Lin glanced at Bai DuanDuan, “This is a business expense, and it’s reasonable for me to reimburse you.”

“But should we ask Xie Miao for the money? Isn’t that inappropriate?”

“I’ll pay.” Ji Lin said unhappily, “This wasn’t bought for you by Xie Miao, why should he pay? I bought it.”

For a moment, Bai Duanduan felt that Ji Lin’s words were very reasonable, and she was misled by his logic.

However, Ji Lin didn’t give Bai Duanduan time to react. He looked at her again and asked, “So you don’t want the Tom Ford lipstick gift box anymore, and you want to give it to my mom, right?”

“No way!” Bai Duanduan replied decisively, “I’ve thought about it carefully and I can’t give it to her. You see, it’s not good to wear lipstick too often. Even if it’s a big brand, it’s still a chemical substance. Aunt Meng cares about her health, and it’s better to focus on health preservation. Let young people like me handle the things that have to be done by wearing lipstick and harming ourselves!”

Since Ji Lin was paying for everything, how could she let it be given to Mrs. Meng?! It’s impossible!

Ji Lin didn’t refute her argument, he just chuckled and said, “That’s a twisted logic.”

Bai Duanduan continued with a thoughtful expression for Ji Lin, “Besides, your mom should restrain her shopping desire. I saw that she bought a YSL lipstick set last time. If she keeps spending like this, she’ll drain you dry sooner or later. It’s time to restrain her shopping desire!”

Bai Duanduan’s expression was sly and lively, but Ji Lin didn’t feel any pain in his heart even though he had just spent 500,000 yuan. He felt as if he was living in a peaceful and happy time.

However, he did agree with Bai Duanduan’s view that his mother’s shopping desire should be restrained. After all, he occasionally had to spend a little money on Bai Duanduan.

Didn’t Rong Sheng say that you should be more generous to your subordinates and care more for Bai Duanduan in every way possible, otherwise she would definitely run away with Lin Hui over a little favor?

[Small Theater]

Ji Lin: Mom, you’ve been spending too much money recently. You spent 300,000 yuan this month. I might need to start dating someone soon, and I’ll have to spend a little money on her occasionally.

Mrs. Meng is extremely excited: Okay, son, I’ll spend less!! That’s great!! My son has grown up! He’s about to leave the nest!!

Ji Lin: ?

Mrs. Meng: Son, you still have to invest some money in pursuing girls. If you spend too little, it’s not appropriate. Mom supports you and you can be a little more generous. So, how much have you spent on your girlfriend? Let me judge if it’s too little.

Ji Lin: Oh, not much, about 500,000 yuan.

Mrs. Meng: ??????
