Not enough money?
Hah!
Did Xie Sifeng think that Sun Ying was stupid?
āSifeng, ask your boyfriend to come back. Iāve asked someone else for help. You donāt have to pay me back the rest of the money. Take it as compensation for your hard work.ā
Xie Sifeng was shocked by these words.
Sun Ying was her and her boyfriendās money tree. She was still thinking of taking money from her!
She immediately said, āNo, no, no. Yingying. Iāll let my boyfriend stay in a small hotel. Heās a grown man. Itās fine for him to endure a nightās stay in a small hotel.
āItās getting late. You should go have your meal. I wonāt disturb you anymore.ā
The other party knew what was going on, so Sun Ying didnāt pursue the matter. She held her cell phone with one shoulder and rolled up the sleeves of her cashmere sweater. There were hideous and terrifying wounds on her arms. Some⦠seemed to have been from getting whipped, while others seemed to have come from a knife.
Sun Ying, who had been overseas for half a year, smelled faintly of blood.
On the other hand, Du Jiayi was welcomed by the entire family when she returned home. It was Staff Officer Duās birthday today. With his current position, he could not make it too extravagant. It had been a few years since he held a big celebration. He kept a low profile at home.
When it was time to rest, Du Jiayi looked at her tall brother and held Madam Liās hand. She smiled and said, āMom, itās time for Brother to find a girlfriend. You have to keep an eye on him first. Donāt let those women who want to climb up the social ladder get close to you. When the time comes, you wonāt be able to chase them away. Just like Sun Ying. She almost entered our family back then.
Although Sun Ying was a small fry, Madam Lin had to deal with every little small fry or they would remain a thorn in her side.
She glanced at her younger brother, Li Chuhai, and the smile on her face turned colder. āYour uncle has angered me. Heās still keeping the person I donāt like by his side, even sending her overseas.
āI wonder if heās trying to annoy me on purpose so that he can anger me.ā
When Li Chuhai heard his niece mention Sun Ying, he knew that something was going to happen again. He raised his wine glass and said to Madam Li,
āSister, I had no choice but to make arrangements. I know that youāre angry.
āThis glass of wine is my compensation. I hope you can accept it. Also, youāre my sister, and Iām your younger brother. Iāll definitely do whatever you want, but not now.
āItās really useful for me to keep her.ā
Du Jiayi, who was just casually mentioning it, immediately sensed that something was wrong. After she retired from the army, she went overseas to study. She did not know what had happened at all, but now, she knew that something was wrong.
āUncle, you..
āJiayi, this is my business. Your mother canāt ask me about it. And you canāt ask about it either.ā Li Chuhai stopped his niece from asking further. This was the Du family, not anywhere else. If his brother-in-law heard this, he wouldnāt let him off.
Du Jiayi looked at Madam Li and then at her uncle, whose expression was slightly cold because her mother had not expressed her stance for a long time. She knew that things were not simple, so she could only nod obediently.
Since she couldnāt ask anything in front of her uncle, she should just ask her mother later.
āMom, your relationship with Uncle is very good. You canāt ruin your relationship because of an unrelated person. Itās Dadās birthday today. You have to be happy. Come, let Uncle and I toast you.ā
His nieceās sensibility caused a faint smile to appear on Li Chuhaiās cold face. āSister, after toasting, I have to leave. Itās the new year, and I still have a few work matters to settle. I canāt keep accompanying you and Brother-in-law. Letās drink first.ā After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.
Madam Liās expression turned even colder..
