Chapter 453: Chapter 454 My money and your money
Fortunately, Chu Yuan did not have the habit of squandering money. The way she managed her own money was something that even my parents couldn’t compare with. When this bratty girl just got her ID, the first thing she did was to ask me to take her to the bank to open a bank account.
Then she often saved her pocket money in her bank account. Since she opened her account, there was now more than 10,000 Chinese Yuan in her account, which surprised me a lot.
I didn’t know why she liked to save money so much. She didn’t like to spend money, but she often found every opportunity possible to ask for pocket money. But saving money was a good habit, so every time she asked me for money, I would give her money without any hesitation. However, this time was an exception. Since she wanted to spend money now, why not spend her own money? If she didn’t want to spend her own money, then what was the point of saving it?
“I have pocket money, but Dongfang doesn’t have it,” Chu Yuan pursed her mouth and said angrily: “I went to the bank to withdraw money with her in the afternoon and found that her account has actually been frozen.”
“Frozen?” I looked at Dongfang Lianren who was sitting opposite me, “By your mom?”
“Who else would do it besides her?” Dongfang didn’t seem to care about it, but the sadness in her eyes could not be concealed.
She was currently living under someone else’s roof without having any money with him. Her situation was indeed very embarrassing… But then again. What was wrong with her mother? Why would anyone treat their own daughter like this? What if Dongfang didn’t come to seek help from Chu Yuan? And what if she was wandering in the street alone? Was she not worried that freezing her bank account would starve her to death?
I comforted Dongfang: “It doesn’t matter if it was frozen. Now your mother knows that you are with Yuan Yuan, she will unfreeze it in a few days.”
“But it hasn’t been unfrozen now,” Chu Yuan stretched out her hand again, as if asking me to give her money right away. This bratty girl once said that she liked the feeling of asking me for money, but did she have to be so impatient? “When Dongfang left home, she was wearing her school uniforms. But since she is going to go back home, she can’t wear the same dirty school uniform again. Otherwise, her mom would think that she was mistreated by us. Tomorrow, we are going to buy a new set of clothes, so I need 500 Yuan.”
Dongfang’s family already knew that she was currently staying in my flat, so Dongfang didn’t have to hide in the flat all day long. After being locked inside my flat for so long, I could understand the feeling of wanting to go out and have fun. However, the reason why they wanted to buy a new set of clothes was not for fear of her mother’s misunderstanding that we had mistreated her. Instead, the rebellious little bratty girl wanted to use this to tell her mother that even if she left her, she would still have a good life, and she could find another home that was willing to accept her.
Sometimes, girls in the rebellious period are complicated and difficult to understand, but other times, they are simple and very easy to understand…
“Let’s talk about it after eating. Can’t you see what I am wearing? My clothes don’t even have a pocket.” I lightly knocked Chu Yuan’s palm with chopsticks, and said helplessly, “You are such a scrooge, don’t you even have five hundred yuan? I thought you two are best friends. So stingy,”
“I’m not stingy!” Chu Yuan hurriedly said: “It is because we are best friends that she doesn’t want to spend my money!”
“What?”
Chu Yuan rolled her eyes at me and snorted, “How can spending my money be the same as spending your money?”
I was puzzled, “What’s the difference?” .
Chu Yuan straightened her back and said: “Girls shouldn’t restrain themselves when shopping. If all they think about is to save money, they will not be able to feel the pleasure of shopping anymore. We are best friends, so she will feel embarrassed when spending my money, but she would not feel that way when spending your money. You are a man after all. The more she spends your money, the happier and the more satisfied she will be”
“Yuan Yuan, don’t talk nonsense!” Dongfang said embarrassedly: “Why do you make it sound like I’m a profit-seeking woman? What do you mean that the more I spend his money, the happier and more satisfied I will be?”
Uh… First of all, you can’t even count as a “woman”, right? At most, you are a “bratty girl”, “a rebellious naughty girl”… Secondly, does Chu Yuan not know that Dongfang little brat is the daughter of a wealthy family. The seafood she brought to my flat was far more than 500 yuan, right? The bag of tea leaves she gave to my old man was exactly the same as the one that Mo Yizhi hid in his office and was reluctant to take it out to serve it to his guests. Therefore the price of that tea leaves was self-evident. So how would 500 Yuan be able to satisfy this bratty girl? Can’t Yuan Yuan not sense the irony in her words? I’m afraid she can’t even buy the panties that Dongfang usually wears for 500 yuan…
“I didn’t say that you are a profit-seeking woman,” Chu Yuan blinked her big eyes innocently, “I just said that if you spend my elder brother’s money on clothes, you will feel satisfied. What do you think I was talking about?”
I felt that Chu Yuan was making fun of Dongfang, but I didn’t understand the joke. I only saw that after Dongfang glanced at me secretly, her face blushed instantly. Then she went around the table immediately, wanting to hit Chu Yuan. “Yuan Yuan! How dare you make fun of me? ”
“Did I? Clearly, it was you who was thinking something dirty. So don’t blame me.” Chu Yuan giggled as she ran to hide behind Dong Xiaoye. She popped out her head, rested her chin on Dong Xiaoye’s shoulder, and said with a relieved expression, “Aiya, aiya, little Dongfang has finally grown up now…”
Dongfang screamed strangely, seemingly trying to cover Chu Yuan’s voice. Seeing that it didn’t seem to be effective, she felt so embarrassed that she lifted the ladle in the soup bowl and brandished it in the air threateningly, “Very well, if this is how you want to play, then I will play with you! It seems like you have forgotten the gap between our strengths completely because I haven’t shown you what I’m capable of for a while. Take this!”
“Ah~!” Seeing that Dongfang pounced on her, Chu Yuan, whose athletic ability was almost none, squatted down and hugged Dong Xiaoye’s legs, “Elder Sister Xiaoye, save me! Dongfang wants to bully me!”
If you know that you can’t beat her, then don’t mess with her… I shook my head and sighed helplessly, “I really don’t know what kind of game you two are playing…”
“Alright, alright, that’s enough. As cultivated girls, we should pay attention to our manners. Don’t let the only man in this house underestimate us.”
Cultivated? Manners? It might be more convincing after you licked the oil on your lips and the rice grains at the corners of your mouth clean… Dong Xiaoye blocked Dongfang, handed the empty bowl to Chu Yuan, and said: “Yuan Yuan, the meat dishes you cooked recently are really delicious. I want another one.”
It seems that you have never eaten less than three bowls of rice a night… Sister Tiger’s appetite was really shocking. It was much bigger than mine. Since she moved in, the consumption of rice and noodles in my family has almost doubled. However, she didn’t like me saying that she ate a lot. If I really made some comments about it, she would definitely hit me. Disliking me making a comment about her big appetite was probably the only thing about her that made her look like a woman
Maybe Dong Xiaoye’s profession represented a kind of majesty, or maybe it was because they were both girls and Dong Xiaoye was older, Dongfang little brat would always listen to Dong Xiaoye. Seeing Dong Xiaoye dissuade her, she stopped trying to catch Chu Yuan and teach her a lesson. However, my little sister continued to provoke Dongfang little brat. She made funny faces at Dongfang as she was getting the rice for Dong Xiaoye, causing Dongfang to tremble with anger. Dong Xiaoye frowned at Chu Yuan as a warning, and then as if to comfort Dongfang who was slightly angry, she said to me: “You are really long-winded. Just give the money to Dongfang later. Since you are going to send her away, shouldn’t you buy her some beautiful clothes as a gift?”
Not daring to argue with Sister Tiger, I smiled embarrassedly and said: “Yes, yes. Of course, I should. Sister Xiaoye, you have been working hard to protect me. How about you will go with them tomorrow and buy some new clothes too? I’ll pay for it.”
I would go on a date with Liusu tomorrow, so I had to get rid of Dong Xiaoye, this third wheel. Therefore, it was worth it to spend this money.
“No need. I cannot accept it. Otherwise, it’s corruption and bribery,” Dong Xiaoye took over the bowl full of rice, poured a tablespoon of braised pork with the meat and sauce on the rice, and wolfed it down while saying in a muffled voice: “Besides, I have something tomorrow, so I can’t go shopping with them.”
“You have something to do tomorrow?” That’s great! I almost cheered.
“Yes. What’s wrong?”
Seeing Dong Xiaoye looking at me with a confused expression, I hurriedly suppressed the ecstasy in my heart, and pretended to eat food to conceal my smiling face, “Nothing, I’m just wondering why you have something to do on the weekend…”
“What do you mean? I’m a young and beautiful woman. It’s normal for me to be busy on weekends, alright!”Dong Xiaoye glared at me angrily and said: “It’s a business.”
Of course, it would be business. If it was a private matter, you definitely wouldn’t leave me alone. I didn’t know why, but I felt slightly relieved…
In fact, throughout the entire afternoon, I had been thinking about how to get rid of Dong Xiaoye this third wheel tomorrow. I had been very frustrated because I had been unable to think of anything. So naturally, I was overjoyed when I heard such good news. It’s really great that the police are always busy. Otherwise, with this third wheel following me everywhere, it would not feel like a date at all.
