No Money For My Enemy Chapter 3

Ethan Ji recovered after resting for a day at home.

His health has always been better than others. He rarely suffers from minor illnesses and pains, let alone such a small injury. After a good night's sleep, he didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.

But he didn't want to move and his feet were still sore, so he lay at home for another day.

When Blake Yue called, he had just blocked Ryan Qin.

After Ryan Qin returned 20,000 yuan to him, the two of them never spoke again. Ethan Ji became more and more angry, and in the end he did not take the money and directly closed the dialog box.

The reason he thought of blocking him now was because he saw a post from Ryan Qin's Moments half a minute ago.

In fact, Ryan Qin did not post anything. On the contrary, he went to Ryan Qin's circle of friends and saw that the other party did not use any weird settings such as "visible for three days" or "visible for half a year", but the content in it was even less than Blake Yue's circle of friends that was visible for three days. Four out of five posts were pictures of his dog, an American Bully, very ugly, with muscles on its back.

Exactly like its owner!

The word Ryan Qin posted on his Moments this time was not "dog", but just two simple words.

"Looking for work."

Ethan Ji was shocked when he saw these two words. He opened the profile picture repeatedly to confirm several times before he was willing to believe that the post on the circle of friends was indeed sent by Ryan Qin.

Ryan Qin would actually post something like this on his Moments?!

One of the reasons why Ethan Ji hated Ryan Qin was that Ryan Qin was too aloof and arrogant, just like his half-brother.

Ethan Ji is an illegitimate child. His mother is an unknown actress whom Ji's father had slept with outside. He was conceived in one night without anyone noticing.

After knowing this, Ji's father originally did not intend to recognize him - the Ji family was a complicated family, and his first wife was a well-known strong woman who came from another company through marriage. He did not intend to turn against his wife because of a seed that he sowed casually.

But in the end, Madam Helen stepped in. It was said that she talked with Madam Helen for a whole night, and she gave in to Madam Helen so much that she finally agreed to let Ethan Ji and his mother live somewhere else.

His mother is different from other mistresses. Other mistresses would instill in their children the idea that they must defeat the original wife and seize the family property as soon as they were born, but his mother repeatedly told him to be humble and low-key, and never covet things that do not belong to him, otherwise he would die without knowing how he died. He would live a mediocre life and earn a few hundred thousand yuan a month to live.

After giving these instructions for more than ten years, when Ethan Ji was thirteen years old, his mother was diagnosed with cancer and passed away.

An illegitimate child naturally cannot live with the original family. Ethan Ji has lived alone outside for more than ten years. During this period, he has only seen other members of the Ji family and even his biological father a few times.

But his absence doesn't mean he doesn't exist.

Although his father didn't care about him, he still arranged a school for him because of Madam Helen.

To save trouble, he went to his brother, Nathan Ji's school for junior high school.

Ethan Ji still remembers the first time he met Nathan Ji. He was in physical education class, and after playing basketball, he went to the school supermarket to buy some water. When he entered, he saw several older boys sitting in the middle of the supermarket, talking and laughing.

As soon as the people over there saw him, they immediately stopped laughing.

The boy sitting on the right said something, and their eyes all fell on Ethan Ji.

Although Ethan Ji was still young, he could still discern the emotions in those eyes.

Contempt, ridicule, and disdain.

Ryan Qin was among them at that time. He was sitting in the very center, but the look he gave Ethan Ji was the coldest among them. He quickly looked away with his eyebrows raised nonchalantly, as if it would be redundant to give Ethan Ji another look.

The clean white school uniform shirt seemed to have coated him with a layer of light, making him look high and mighty, out of reach.

That was the first time he met Nathan Ji, but he only remembered Ryan Qin.

Such a beautiful girl started looking for a job in her circle of friends half a minute ago.

"Ethan Ji, are you listening?" Blake Yue urged on the phone.

Ethan Ji came back to his senses: "Yes. What did you just say?"

Blake Yue: "...I said, let's go to the pop tonight."

Pop was a bar they often went to, and it was also the hottest bar in the city. Ryan Qin took him away from Pop that day. Thinking of this, Ethan Ji lost interest: "No."

"What's up? Do you have anything else to do?" Blake Yue asked.

"No." Ethan Ji made up an excuse, "I was playing games today."

Blake Yue said: "No, what's so fun about games? You have to come, I saved this game especially for you tonight!"

Ethan Ji: "Saved for me?"

"Yes. Bring Ryan Qin with you!" Blake Yue said excitedly.

Ethan Ji was stunned: "Why should I take him there?"

"You did that just to discredit him, didn't you?" Blake Yue said, "I've called a lot of people here tonight, and I'll let everyone see how Ryan Qin behaves in front of you. I guarantee you'll be very happy!"

...

If Blake Yue hadn't mentioned this, Ethan Ji would have almost forgotten his purpose.

But things had gone off track long ago. When he was "sponsoring" Ryan Qin, he never thought of sleeping with him.

Ethan Ji sighed: "Forget it, I don't want to go out today."

"No, I've already told those people that you will bring Ryan Qin with you." Blake Yue said, "Everyone is waiting to see!"

Hold.

Ethan Ji has a headache.

"Blake Yue, you are so capable."

Blake Yue smiled and said, "That's right. You've already spent all your money, so I have to help you vent your anger."

After hanging up the phone, Ethan Ji opened the broken group that he had blocked for hundreds of years. Sure enough, more than a dozen people in it showed up, and even the group name was changed to "Unforgettable Tonight Pop".

Blake Yue knew him very well. If things went according to Ethan Ji's plan, then the first thing he would do after hiring Ryan Qin would definitely be to bring him around and use him like a little brother.

But now, Ethan Ji didn't want to see Ryan Qin at all, and didn't want to take Ryan Qin to meet others.

He was afraid that Ryan Qin would let the cat out of the bag.

Ethan Ji leaned on the sofa, peeled an orange for himself, put it in his mouth, and the sweetness immediately spread in his mouth.

After a while, he took out the search engine on his mobile phone and typed in a line of words.

"How do I add back someone I blocked on WeChat?"

---

The silver Lamborghini supercar speeds on the road, and when it encounters a red light, it always attracts the attention of the cars passing by.

Ethan Ji didn't care at all. He put one hand loosely on the car door, and the watch on his wrist was exquisite and luxurious. He held the reverse wheel with one hand, and the car was the first to whistle away when the red light went out.

He saw Ryan Qin at the agreed location.

The other person was wearing a simple white sweatshirt and black jeans. He stood straight on the street, with a tall and slender figure, very conspicuous.

Ethan Ji couldn't help but glance at his black sweatshirt and jeans, and felt something was not right.

Just as he was about to pull over, he saw a well-dressed middle-aged woman come forward and say something to Ryan Qin.

Ryan Qin had a faint expression and shook his head.

This is how Ryan Qin should be, keeping people at a distance.

Ethan Ji parked the car and was about to continue watching when he met Ryan Qin's gaze.

Seeing him, Ryan Qin raised his eyebrows, took the business card the woman handed to him, and walked straight to the car.

Ryan Qin got in the car and slowly fastened his seat belt: "Are you feeling well?"

Ethan Ji didn't expect that he would dare to bring up this matter right away. He almost lost control of the force he put on the accelerator: "What the hell does it have to do with you?"

"Of course I'll do my job." Ryan Qin glanced at him, "If it's not ready, I won't be able to do it for a while."

Ethan Ji took a deep breath. He had something to discuss with Ryan Qin later, so he couldn't quarrel with him right now. "I didn't say I wanted to sleep with you."

Ryan Qin nodded: "So what are we going to do now?"

Ethan Ji no longer looked at him and said stiffly, "Eat."

Ethan Ji booked a table at a Japanese restaurant, not for any other reason but because the private room was quiet and convenient for discussing things.

After sitting down, he took the menu and ordered two dishes at random.

After the waiter closed the door, Ethan Ji leaned against the wall and asked directly: "Let's talk about a contract. How much does it cost to sponsor you for a year?"

Ryan Qin knew that Ethan Ji was not a person who liked to play by the rules, but he was still a little surprised to hear this.

He smiled and asked slowly: "Is it so comfortable?"

"...Ryan Qin." Ethan Ji raised his chin slightly, frowned and said impatiently, "If you don't want to stay in Mancheng anymore, then continue to be poor."

Ethan Ji was just trying to scare Ryan Qin. Even though the Qin family was bankrupt, they would not allow an illegitimate son like him to bully them.

Qin Manlian smiled back and said, "I'll think about it."

Ethan Ji asked: "How long will it take to consider? I'm in a hurry."

... Ryan Qin tapped the table with his index finger. The door opened and the waiter came in with a plate of chilled sashimi.

After the people left, he replied, "I'll tell you after we finish this meal."

Ethan Ji had no appetite at all. He took out his cell phone and said, "Eat slowly."

Ryan Qin didn't say much, he just picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Although he was down and out, he was still elegant in his gestures. Ethan Ji was used to eating meat and drinking in the food stalls, so he just didn't like him.

So Ryan Qin took a few bites before Ethan Ji started talking again.

"Let me make it clear to you first." He said, "I'm not looking for you to sleep with me..."

"Then why are you giving me money?" Ryan Qin interrupted him, raised his eyes, and said in an ambiguous tone, "You don't like my body, but I like you?"

"...It's not just about you sleeping with me." Ethan Ji gritted his teeth and corrected, deliberately picking out the unpleasant things to say, "You have to come whenever I call you. You can't go right when I say left. Also---during our contract period, you can't mess around with others. I don't like my lover cheating on me...Anyway, I have high standards, so take your time to estimate the price, don't sell yourself cheaply."

Ethan Ji is very concerned about his reputation. He had previously told Blake Yue that within a year, he would have to make good on his boast and not let it go too far.

Ryan Qin swallowed the sashimi, put down his chopsticks, and wiped his mouth with a tissue: "How much money do you have?"

Ethan Ji paused: "Why? Anyway, I can afford you, as long as you don't ask for an exorbitant price, I'll offer 100 or 200 million."

"One or two hundred million is not enough for me." Ryan Qin smiled, "But I know your brother, I'm willing to give you a discount... I want half of the amount in your card."

Ethan Ji's mood had originally calmed down a lot, but when he heard him mention Nathan Ji, his brows immediately furrowed tightly.

"Aren't you afraid that I don't have money in my card?"

"Are you willing or not?" Ryan Qin asked back.

Ethan Ji has money in his card, and it's quite a lot. Although his father doesn't care about him, he still transfers money to his account on time every month. He usually lives alone, doesn't take drugs or gamble, and doesn't have any big expenses except buying a car. This half of the money is also a considerable amount.

But Ethan Ji never cared about money.

"Okay." Ethan Ji said, "Shall I call you now?"

"It's so late, the bank is closed."

Ethan Ji doesn't like to procrastinate: "Then I'll make an appointment with the manager first."

"No hurry." Ryan Qin said, "I won't run away."

After saying that, he took out a business card from his pocket, which was the one that the woman on the street had just handed to him.

Ryan Qin didn't even look at it and threw the business card into the ashtray on the table.

Ethan Ji glanced at it and only saw the four words "agency".

"Is that a talent scout?" Ethan Ji was relieved after the deal was done. He lit a cigarette and said, "I heard being a star is very profitable nowadays... Why, do you look down on this industry?"

"I have no experience, so I can't do it well." Ryan Qin said lightly, "Besides, I can make a lot of money just by sleeping with you, so why bother?

Ethan Ji bit his cigarette unconsciously: "Can you please stop talking about having S3x?"

"If you don't allow me to say it, I won't say it." Ryan Qin quickly got into character. He stood up and said, "I've finished eating. Where are we going now?"

Ethan Ji sat and looked at him. The light shone down and cast layers of shadows on Ryan Qin's face. He couldn't see Ryan Qin's true expression.

At this point, the image of this person in his mind has completely collapsed.

Can bankruptcy change a person's temperament into this?

Realizing that he was thinking about unnecessary things, Ethan Ji quickly retracted his gaze, pressed the cigarette on the soaked business card and extinguished it: "Bar."
