2919 You're Not Lying to Us, Are You?

It took her quite a while before recovering. "Young lady! This is such a big thing and you didn't tell us? You're already on a plane and going before telling us! You… this child!"

Mrs. Jiang was beyond angry.

"I'm sorry, Mom," Jiang Yujie said.

"Do you even care about us! This is such a big issue and you didn't even discuss it with us!" Mrs. Jiang fumed.

Jiang Yujie forced back her tears and choked on a sob before saying, "I didn't want to agree at first. If I was the only child left in the family, I wouldn't go for sure, but isn't Brother already back? I don't have to worry that there'd be no one taking care of you, so I can work without worries."

Jiang Yujie sniffed, saying, "I just want to get more experience while I'm young and have more development opportunities. And going overseas… earns a lot more."

"Doesn't B City have more opportunities? So many top talents from all around the country come to B City for development. How much opportunity is that! And you're going the opposite way? Do the other cities offer as many opportunites as B City?"

"Mom, I've already given my agreement to the company. There's no chance now to regret it," Jiang Yujie said.

"Then why didn't you tell us earlier? Why only now? There wasn't even a hint before!" Mrs. Jiang raged.

"Wasn't I afraid of you guys disagreeing?" Jiang Yujie said.

Mr. Jiang's face then appeared behind Mrs. Jiang in the video.

"But where are you going? For how long?" Mr. Jiang asked.

Jiang Yujie was stuck momentarily before saying, "I'm not sure how long, it's up to the company. As to where…"

"Don't tell me you don't even know where you're going? Where's your flight to?" Mr. Jiang questioned lowly.

Jiang Yujie quickly bluffed, "To G City!"

"Is it?" Jiang Huaizhou's voice rang out.

Jiang Yujie then saw Jiang Huaizhou appearing behind Mrs. Jiang and beside Mr. Jiang. "Give me your company's number, I'll call them for details. Since you aren't willing to share, I can only ask your company."

"Brother!" Jiang Yujie quickly called out. "Since when do family members call companies for information?"

"Then tell me the truth, where are you going? Did you leave because of me?" Jiang Huaizhou questioned.

"Never! Brother, don't think that way. I… I naturally wish to stay in B City more and have the whole family together. But I'm grown now. I have to plan for myself. Isn't it good to gain experience and see the outside world when one is still young?" Jiang Yujie said.

Mrs. Jiang almost believed her words.

But not Jiang Huaizhou.

There were too many loopholes in Jiang Yujie's words.

"Brother, the plane's gonna take off soon. The air stewardess is asking me to end the call," Jiang Yujie said. "I'm hanging up."

"Wait!" Mr. Jiang called out. "You'll contact us when you land, right? Allay our worries. You're alone at a foreign place so far away, a young lady at that. How can we be assured?"

"Mmm," Jiang Yujie agreed noncommitally. "Will do."

She didn't dare look at the three faces in the video.

Mr. Jiang frowned. "You're not lying to us, right? Yujie, what's going on?"
