Chapter 632: Admit Defeat
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhang De didn’t get upset when he heard Su Jin’s words. If this had happened in the past, the two of them would probably be quarreling right now. Ever since he found out that Su Jin was his sister, Zhang De decided to make up to her in future, or he would feel that he owed her too much.
Zhang De stood up, took out a bank card from his pocket, and gave it to Su Jin as he said, “I admit defeat. This card contains the money I owe you, and it’s three times more!”
Su Jin was stunned when she heard this. She then looked at Zhang De in astonishment. Why was this guy suddenly so nice? Not only did he give her the money, but he also gave so much more? Could there be some problem? Did his mother asked him to pay her more?
Su Jin looked at Zhang De in confusion and asked, “Why did you give me more money than required?”
Zhang De lowered his head slightly when he heard this, trying to hide the guilt in his eyes and face. After all, he couldn’t reveal the secret to Su Jin yet or it might attract danger.
!!
Zhang De tried his best to control his emotions and calmed his voice before he said to Su Jin, “No reason. I just have too much money!”
Su Jin thought that Zhang De’s words were in line with his personality. No one would complain about having more money. Since Zhang De was willing to give it to her, there was no reason for her not to accept it.
After all, Zhang De had already said it. Su Jin didn’t feel any guilt but she was more curious if Zhang De had received instructions from his family to pay her more. Su Jin replied, “Okay, I understand. Rich people really feel that they have too much money!”
As Su Jin said this, she took the bank card from Zhang De. This could be considered a bonus that she could invest in her business in future. She kept the bank card in her pocket and moved on to her most important task, which was to find out about her mother.
Su Jin whispered to Zhang De, “One more question. Do you have a guest at home?”
Zhang De’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Could Su Jin have already heard about it? How was this possible? That place was a Zhang family secret. Theoretically, no one should know about it.
Zhang De quickly calmed his emotions. He took two steps back, raised his head and looked calmly at Su Jin as he said, “Oh, don’t come too close. After all, it’s best for men and women to keep a safe distance!”
When Su Jin heard this, she almost wanted to beat Zhang De to death. What was this guy thinking? Su Jin would need to be blind to fall for Zhang De. The devil she had at home was the best-looking man. But Su Jin quickly realized that Zhang De was changing the subject.
She looked at Zhang De in confusion and said, “Don’t overthink it. My husband is a thousand times better than you. I don’t fancy you!”
Zhang De was speechless when he heard this, but he quickly reacted. What? Husband? Su Jin was already married? How was this possible? He only knew that Su Jin was engaged to some guy at school, but it didn’t seem to matter now. Where did her husband come from? Could Su Jin have been tricked?
Zhang De asked with concern, “No, since when did you have a husband?”
The corners of Su Jin’s mouth curled up slightly when she heard this. She was just puzzled at Zhang De sudden concern for her. However, it didn’t really matter. If Zhang De wanted to know, she could take this opportunity to trick him into telling her the truth about her mother, why she was there at their house.
Su Jin looked at Zhang De and said plainly, “Since you want to know, why don’t I come to your house tonight?”
Zhang De heard Su Jin’s words and thought about it. If Su Jin came to his house, he could find out if she had been tricked, if she had been sold and yet she was counting money for her seller. As Su Jin’s older brother, he must protect her. This would put his mother’s mind at ease too. After thinking it through, Zhang De nodded and decided to let Su Jin go to his house tonight.
Su Jin didn’t expect Zhang De to actually agree. But this was a good thing. If she was at Zhang De’s house, she would be able to find out more. It would save Xi Tian a lot of trouble too if they found out what was going on sooner.
Zhang De looked at Su Jin seriously and said, “If you’re sure, I’ll call home and ask the family to prepare more of your favorite food!”
Su Jin was even more puzzled when she heard this. Why did Zhang De suddenly become like this? So easy-going? Could there be something wrong? But for the sake of her mother, even if it was a tiger’s den, she had to go and take a good look.
Su Jin looked at Zhang De in disbelief and said with a puzzled expression, “Zhang De, why are you suddenly so easy-going?”
