Chapter 58 (2/2)
Yun Ziling and Yun Chuhan’s eyes especially bulged at the sight of that thick envelope!
There must be at least 1,000 or 2,000, if not 5,000 RMB inside!
Their dad had never given them so much money before. Even for their living allowances, they’d only received 500 or 600 RMB every week.
A one-time amount of several thousand RMB was considered a huge sum of money to them!
Liang Xiuqin felt as if her flesh was being cut at the sight of that wad of cas.h.!.+
She hadn’t been able to glean any benefits from that wretched girl, yet she’d ended up losing her own money on her!
Yun Xi looked up to play dumb. “I just came back from Grandfather Jiang’s a few days ago. I heard that he’d recently been invited to be a general counselor, so he shouldn’t be home for a while.”
“He’s not home? Then…” Yun Yuanfeng fell into a panic, then considered it before setting his sights on the Chen family.
“Didn’t you rescue Mr. Chen? You also need to visit the Chens more often…”
“Okay, I understand! I’ll go visit Mr. Chen tomorrow and check on his condition.”
She paused, then looked up to look at Liang Xiuqin before glancing at the wad of cash used to elicit favors.
She purposely asked with Yun Yuanfeng present, “Mom, you won’t ask for this money back?”
Liang Xiuqin had had the idea in her head, but her expression fell when the question had been posed to her. She glared viciously at Yun Xi.
Yun Yuanfeng also turned around to shoot her a stern warning glance.
Liang Xiuqin appeared very embarra.s.sed. “What are you saying?! Your dad gave you this to buy gifts with, so why would I take it back?!”
Yun Xi nodded. With her dad there, her mom would never dare to reclaim the money even if she wanted to.
Yun Yuanfeng still wanted Yun Xi to visit the Chens and help him elicit favors. After all, this implicated his promotion.
But he also felt like it would be too embarra.s.sing to mention it out of nowhere, so he had no choice but to change the topic by reminding Yun Xi.
“Don’t be too frugal when you buy the gifts, or you’ll embarra.s.s our family. Do you understand?”
“I understand!”
