The Female Celebrity Transmigrated into the Daughter of Her Arch Nemesis

Chapter 65

Tingting shook her head, "I have to go to Grandpa Li's house later. Because I'm too thin and not good looking, I wasn't going to go originally. But Grandpa Li said he could help me hide out at his place, so when we get discovered later, they can only take me along too."

"Grandpa Li?" Ji Ruochu looked at her doubtfully.

"Yes, the grandpa who gives me cookies. Grandpa Li is always sick and sleeping most of the time, but he's very kind to us."

Tingting sighed, "But Granny doesn't like me going to see Grandpa Li. If she sees me eating the cookies Grandpa Li gave me, she'll snatch them away without leaving me any."

Ji Ruochu lowered her head and kicked a small rock on the ground. Her eyes flickered with complex emotions, but when she raised her head again, they were still clear and bright:

"So sister Tingting, your granny doesn't know you're going out to work?"

Tingting shook her head.

"What about your mom and dad?"

Tingting shook her head again.

"That's no good." Ji Ruochu's face was very serious. "Children must tell adults when going out."

"But...but I want to earn money, lots and lots of money. When I have money, I can buy things my brother likes. Then Granny won't always take my stuff to give to my brother, or make me marry the boy from the next village. And my parents won't have to work so hard either."

"Hmm..." Ji Ruochu sat on a rock under the tree, propping her chin and thinking for a while. Then her eyes lit up, "I've got it! Sister Tingting, come work at my uncle's company."

"Your uncle?" Tingting looked at her fancy clothes somewhat apprehensively. "I'm so little, and have no strength or knowledge of words. Would your uncle let me work there?"

"Not now, but when you're older and have studied a lot more books you can! Don't worry, our family has lots of money!" As she spoke, the little girl patted her small chest proudly.

Ji Mochen, who had just walked over: ...

Is my daughter showing off her family's wealth?

Not only was he surprised, but the viewers in Ji Mochen's livestream were also caught off guard.

"Why did you take off your mic?" Thinking for a bit, Ji Mochen decided not to follow his daughter's line of talk.

The two little girls seemed to have just noticed his approach and were startled.

"Tingting sis and I were whispering secrets." Ji Ruochu said seriously.

"Are you done whispering now?" The man asked helplessly, but went forward to take off her mic and straighten it, before turning the receiver back on.

As he did these actions, he wondered in confusion - had he taught Ruochu how to turn off the equipment before? He couldn't recall.

"Not yet." Ji Ruochu reluctantly put her mic back on, then seemed to suddenly remember and asked, "Dad, can I let sister Tingting work at uncle's company?"

Tingting was shocked, then looked at this supposed big celebrity uncle somewhat expectantly.

"No." Ji Mochen rejected without even lifting his head.

The light in the two little girls' eyes instantly dimmed.

"Your sister Tingting is only six and a half. You want her to go work for your uncle? The minute she steps into the company, your uncle will be hauled off to jail."

Ji Mochen ruthlessly ruffled his daughter's bun hairstyle. "Don't take advantage of your uncle like that."

Meanwhile, the CEO of the Ji Group sneezed during a meeting thousands of miles away.

"What about when Tingting sis grows up? Can she then?" Ji Ruochu persisted stubbornly.

"That depends on your sister Tingting's grades. If she meets the criteria, of course she can." Ji Mochen didn't make any promises.

After all, he never interfered in matters of the Ji Corporation.

"Alright..." Ji Ruochu was disappointed again, but soon rallied, "What about you, dad? Uncle Qin said just the other day that you're looking for an assistant. When Tingting sis grows up, can she be your assistant?"

Ji Mochen was silent for a long while, before asking the soul-piercing question: "How can you be so sure your dad will still be working in the entertainment industry after your sister Tingting graduates?"

"That's true too..." Now Ji Ruochu really gave up. "Uncle Qin said that with your awful temper, if not for grandfather's great wealth, you would've failed long ago."

Ji Mochen: ...

[Hahahaha! Ji Mochen, you've met your match today!]

[I'm dying laughing, I've seen antis attacking celebrities, but never seen an anti attack someone face-to-face like this.]

[The key is you can't do anything to her, after all...she's not exactly wrong?]

"Alright, the crew is hurrying me. Let's go treasure hunting." Ji Mochen wiped his face and picked up his daughter to catch up with the main group.

"Wait, wait, wait~!" Ji Ruochu immediately struggled in his arms.

"What now?" Ji Mochen held the little one tight, afraid she'd do a backflip and fall to the ground.

"Tingting sis." Ji Ruochu clung to her old dad's shoulder and said earnestly to the little girl standing quietly in place, "Don't be sad. My dad won't make it till you grow up, but I will!"

Everyone present was stunned. What does she mean?

"Study hard. When I grow up and become a celebrity, I'll make you my assistant." Having said this, she further reassured, "Don't worry, I have a great temper~ Definitely better than my dad's~ I'll make it farther than him for sure~"

"Tsk!" Ji Mochen was instantly angered into laughter. "You ungrateful child, how can you praise one person and put down another?"

"It's the truth though~" The little miss was quite willful. "Mom said, in a family of three, dad is the ugliest--er, meanest."

Ji Mochen: ...

"Thank you, little sister Ruochu." Seeing the father and daughter about to start bickering, Tingting quickly cut in, "But it's okay, I'll work hard myself. When I earn money, I'll come see you!"

Ji Mochen only took a serious look at the little girl, but didn't say anything further to her. Carrying his daughter, he left.

Only Ji Ruochu persisted stubbornly, clinging to her old dad's shoulder and shouting to her, "Sister Tingting, I really mean it! Don't go work with them. My Third Uncle is so rich, he'd be arrested for using child labor. The bosses in your village will definitely not get away with it either. You absolutely can't go, waaa~~~~"

The corner of Ji Mochen's mouth twitched. You're really your Third Uncle's good niece. After today, everyone on the internet will know your uncle is rich.

And the little demon in his arms was completely oblivious, still earnestly persuading him:

"Dad, can you really not stay in the entertainment industry a few more years? Just wait for Sister Tingting, otherwise she'll have to go work with the other siblings from the village today."

Having said this, she spoke gravely,

"Dad, watch your temper. Always being angry is bad for your health. Look at Uncle Qin, he's always provoked by you, and already has so many forehead wrinkles!"

Uncle Qin, who was watching the livestream: ?? What does this have to do with him?

The speechless Ji Mochen: ...

Damn, my head hurts.
