Chapter 129: (Extra Chapter) Si Rong's Money Will Be His Sooner or Later

Jiang Cheng's Adam's apple bobbed slightly.

A pair of large hands subconsciously steadied her, "Hair tie?"

"Yes, it's that box at the very back of your wardrobe," Si Rong pointed at Xiao Bai, who was lying on the small sofa by the bed, "I'll state this first! I didn't snoop, Xiao Bai knocked the box over, and I saw it by accident!"

Jiang Cheng finally understood why his wife, who had won the lottery yesterday, was angry.

So it was because of that hair tie.

At the same time, a secret joy rose in his heart; his wife being jealous meant she cared about him!

"That is yours."

"Mine?" Si Rong was very surprised. She climbed down from Jiang Cheng, then neatly took the box out of the cabinet.

Inside, besides the pink hair tie, there were some other things.

A very old fountain pen.

A few dried flowers.

A few heavily creased candy wrappers.

This fountain pen...

Si Rong picked it up. She seemed to have some impression of it; it should have been something she brought when she went to university, but it was too old later on, so she stopped using it.

As for how she had disposed of it, she had long since forgotten.

So, was this box really a collection of things of hers that Jiang Cheng had kept?

But apart from this fountain pen that she had a memory of, she didn't remember the other things, including that hair accessory.

"This hair accessory...," Si Rong picked it up to examine it carefully, "Are you sure it's mine?"

"Mm," Jiang Cheng looked at the items in the box with her, and Xiao Bai also meowed and jumped onto the bed to look with them.

"I bought it for you, but it's a pity you only wore it once."

That was after his love letter had received no response.

He had discovered this hair accessory, which he had sent to Si Rong anonymously, lying in the trash can.

He thought Si Rong detested him to the extreme.

So he never dared to disturb her again.

"I have no impression of any of these things you mentioned. If I had ever worn this hair accessory, it would be absolutely impossible for me to have thrown it into the trash can."

Si Rong recalled that in university, many male classmates would put food or some gifts into her desk drawer.

It was possible that Jiang Cheng had put the hair accessory in her desk drawer, and she might have used it when she forgot her own hair tie.

But how could she have thrown someone else's kind intentions into the trash can?

She suddenly thought of one person.

Li Jianmei.

Then everything made sense. She had first thrown away the love letter, making Jiang Cheng mistakenly believe he had been silently rejected.

Then she threw the hair accessory Jiang Cheng gave her into a trash can where Jiang Cheng would happen to see it.

Li Xuan really paid more attention to her than she had imagined.

Then, regarding her winning the grand prize this time, she must be jealous to death.

Li Xuan was indeed jealous to death.

She tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep.

How could Si Rong's life be so good? How could someone's life be this good? On what grounds?

"Six hundred thousand..." she muttered, almost becoming obsessed.

Although Shen Lan had his eyes closed, he was likewise unable to sleep peacefully.

Six hundred thousand...

Based on his current monthly salary of over two hundred yuan, he would have to go without eating or drinking for thirty years to earn that.

If, if only he had withstood the beating from Si Rong's second brother back then.

A beating is just a beating; they couldn't have beaten him to death, right?

If they hadn't divorced, then the six hundred thousand Si Rong won this time would have belonged to him too.

Now it had gone to Jiang Cheng for nothing!!!

He couldn't reconcile himself to it no matter what!

If Si Rong were still by his side, then his life today would definitely not be like this.

The look Shen Lan gave Li Xuan beside him became increasingly resentful.

Shen Yun had also heard about Si Rong winning the grand prize, and the next day she couldn't wait to run to the Shen Family to verify it.

"Brother, did Si Rong really win over six hundred thousand?"

Ever since her surgery last time, Yang Junwei had not touched her, and had even proposed divorce to her.

Shen Lan was annoyed to no end, "What does that have to do with you?"

"Of course it has nothing to do with me," Shen Yun looked at Li Xuan with a double meaning, "But I know who it has to do with. If it weren't for someone, the six hundred thousand Si Rong won now would all be our Shen Family's!"

"I heard you were there at the time too?"

Shen Yun said sarcastically, "How come you bought lottery tickets just like her, but Si Rong could win the grand prize, while you only lose money?"

If it weren't for this jinx, their family wouldn't be living so miserably now.

Even for the sake of the Si Family, Jun Wei wouldn't have proposed divorce.

Li Xuan was also full of grievances.

The two of them started arguing after only a few words, and Shen Chi on the sofa turned and left the house without saying a word.

He was different from these women with long hair and short insight; he had absolutely no need to worry about these things, as Si Rong had no children, and sooner or later, all the money would be his.

……

On the second day after being transferred to the ward, Jiang Aiguo woke up, and seeing his wife by his side, with his two sons and two daughters-in-law standing by the bed looking at him with concern, he smiled slowly.

This life was worth it.

The doctor instructed the family members to take care with the nursing and, at the same time, to keep an eye on the IV drip.

Tonight, Jiang Yuhao tried to persuade Hu Qian in every possible way before she finally agreed to go back.

Jiang Cheng and Si Rong stayed to keep watch.

"You go to sleep first!" Jiang Cheng pulled the curtain between the two hospital beds to let Si Rong rest for a while.

"Alright then, I'll take over for you in the second half of the night."

When Si Rong was sleeping, she felt a bit dizzy, and she thought it was because she hadn't rested well the previous night.

Waking up in the middle of the night, she got out of bed to prepare to relieve Jiang Cheng when she suddenly felt the world spinning, and then she lost consciousness.
