Chapter 616: Do You Think You Are Sheng Xiao Who Makes a Million a Day?
“We lost a little money in business last month. We’re here just to take back Xiao Jie’s bank card. Isn’t it always with you?”
Tang Yan raised his head and looked at his ex-girlfriend’s older brother and sister-in-law coldly. “I don’t have her bank card.”
“Nonsense. When you bought this house, she said she had given you the card for renovation,” said Ren Jie’s brother.
“I’ve returned it to her. I have used none of her money for everything here,” said Tang Yan.
“Tang Yan, I didn’t expect you to be such a man. Now that Xiao Jie is gone, shouldn’t you return what belongs to her to us? We’re her family.”
Once she heard it, Feng Shanshan couldn’t stand it anymore. So, she pushed the door and walked into the study. “I think you should go and ask another man where he has spent your sister’s money.”
Their faces turned red when they heard her.
“Tang Yan, I didn’t expect you to even tell people such things.”
“It’s not him who told me this. He never mentioned your sister.” Feng Shanshan crossed her arms across her chest, as if she were a spectator. “I really don’t know how you can still have the face to come here. It’s better this way. As her family, don’t you think you should pay for the medical expenses of your sister? Tang Yan has helped you to pay for it in advance, despite you being her family.”
The two didn’t expect Feng Shanshan to be so articulate. They choked and couldn’t speak a word.
“Tang Yan, is this how you humiliate Xiao Jie? I didn’t expect you to be such a guy.”
“I’ll sum up all the medical bills Tang Yan paid for her in a while and will round up for you. It so happens that this house is old and it’s time to renovate.”
Seeing that Feng Shanshan was very serious about it, they waved their hands. “We’ll go and ask somewhere else. We’ll leave now.”
Where had their fire gone? Feng Shanshan looked at them disdainfully as they left as quickly as they could.
“You said that I can’t judge a person accurately, but you are more or less the same.” Feng Shanshan jeered at Tang Yan. “I will move back into my house now that the renovation is complete.”
Tang Yan was speechless.
Feng Shanshan wanted to leave right away, but Tang Yan grabbed her arm.
“I didn’t use somebody else’s money to buy this house nor did I buy it for other people. This happens to be the place where I lived when I was young. That’s all,” Tang Yan explained.
“That girl had lived here before?”
“Yes.”
“Then I want to move out.” Feng Shanshan shook his hand off.
Tang Yan was speechless again.
“Maybe you’ve made a mistake. What if you lived next door when you were young?” Feng Shanshan pointed to her house.
However, Tang Yan stared at Feng Shanshan in silence. “Are you jealous?”
“If I admit that I am jealous, will you move and live next door?”
Tang Yan’s eyes shone bright but he did not speak.
Perhaps Feng Shanshan felt that she had indeed been too forceful, so she said, “I can tolerate you using this house as your study, but I don’t allow you to leave any trace of you living here. You will eat and sleep in my house and this house will be your home office. It doesn’t count as you leaving your parents, alright?
“So are you moving or not?”
“Yes.”
Tang Yan gave a clean answer.
Feng Shanshan was finally satisfied after hearing that. She laughed. “I will hire some workers to remove the wall between the two houses.”
“So, you’ve admitted that you are jealous?”
Tang Yan was still thinking about this.
“Anyone will feel uncomfortable when encountering such a thing. If you think it’s jealousy, jealousy it is then,” Feng Shanshan answered proudly. “But can you blacklist those two people and stop caring about their matters? Haven’t you done enough for them already? Do you have to support her family even? Do you think you are Sheng Xiao who makes a million a day? No, I should put it this way. Even if Sheng Xiao makes a million a day, he won’t do this kind of stupid thing.”
“I’m not good at solving this kind of problem,” said Tang Yan.
“d.a.m.n it!” Feng Shanshan cursed. “When facing shameless people, it’s best to chase them away. Alright, let stop talking and go to sleep. I need to hire some workers to remove the wall. And you should demolish your room and make it into a big home office. Maybe I can even do some experiments there as well. Why didn’t I think of that before?”
Tang Yan smiled secretly when Feng Shanshan walked out of the study.
This was the benefit of having someone to control him.
Luckily, Feng Shanshan was a bit bad, and she won’t take any loss on her side. If it was someone else, he would not even bother.
Of course, if the two met Mu Qiqi, they would end up even more miserable. Sheng Xiao was very good at settling old scores. He could make people die without even knowing why and how.
…
It was the state banquet soon.
Many people in the circle had received the news that Sheng Xiao was attending the event as well. They knew Sheng Xiao would steal the limelight as the famous young entrepreneur.
But as the news was pa.s.sed on, the meaning of the news changed in the ears of the people who heard it. For instance, in Sheng Kai’s ears, and, in Ye Jingcheng’s ears.
Sheng Kai hated Sheng Xiao, and Ye Jingcheng hated Mu Qiqi.
Sheng Kai was helpless before Sheng Xiao for now, but Ye Jingcheng might not be.
If Sheng Xiao was attending the state banquet, it would mean that Sheng Xiao’s image was definitely positive. He was hardworking and energetic. However, Mu Qiqi was the kind of person who framed her sister. How could she enjoy the privilege and honor as Sheng Xiao’s wife?
Besides, if he could create a stir before the New Year’s Eve, would Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao be able to attend the event with a peace of mind?
He really wanted to know.
In the morning, the problem of image was being discussed in Banyan Courtyard. Grandpa Shen started lecturing Mu Qiqi after having breakfast.
“Now that Eight Brother is a famous entrepreneur and he’s attending the state banquet, you cannot continue to act like a wild girl. You should pay more attention to your image and not hinder Eight Brother. The granddaughter of the Shen family should be clean and pure. Remember that.”
“Grandpa, don’t you know me? Apart from going to campus and the police station, I will only go to Zhongteng with Xiaoxiao. I don’t even go to the pub like other young people.”
Mu Qiqi was trying to clear her name.
“Qiqi is a very good girl.” Mama Sheng defended her.
“I was planning to have a reunion dinner with everyone on New Year’s Eve at first. But since they are going to the state banquet, we’ll have it on the first day of New Year.”
“I’ll discuss the matter with Huang Yu.” Mama Sheng smiled.
Mu Qiqi did not expect that she would get into a big scandal in the afternoon after she made a promise with Grandpa Shen just that morning.
However, Mu Qiqi was not a doormat!
…
At ten o’clock in the morning, the criminal investigation team received a report of a murder in the slums. A woman in her twenties had burned to ashes.
“Why did they report the case in the slums to us? Shouldn’t they report it to the local police?” A member of the team complained again.
“Now that it’s almost the New Year, there are fewer police officers on duty. It’s only normal that the case would be transferred to us.”
“It’s better to send the team out now rather than talking nonsense here.”
