Protagonist:

Jiang Wenyu

"Here is a total of ten thousand yuan, please accept it."

"……"

"……"

This single short sentence left everyone present except Chen Lan and Nuan Nuan stunned for a moment.

Chen Fu and Chen Mu looked at that plastic bag in astonishment, and Chen Na behind them finally snapped back to her senses, immediately running over to sneer, "Jiang Wenyu! Did drinking fry your brain? Ten thousand yuan? I bet that ten thousand yuan of yours is hell money!"

Jiang Wenyu paid no heed, not even turning his head back, and Chen Na's boyfriend, that Li Yu, also walked over; he really didn't treat himself as an outsider, putting on an act of patting Jiang Wenyu's shoulder and laughing mockingly, "I can understand honoring your father-in-law and mother-in-law, but you can't go too far, right?"

Jiang Wenyu still ignored him, but upon hearing the words 'hell money,' Chen Fu's face instantly turned a bit ugly; without another word, he immediately opened the plastic bag in front of everyone, then peeled back the newspaper wrapping outside.

That Li Yu was still sneering: "Sigh, although I haven't married Nana yet, I should still show some gesture. Nana, tomorrow the two of us will accompany your parents for a trip to the street, buy some good food and drink, no problem, I'll pay, within a thousand yuan you can spend however you like... Huh, Nana, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Na's gaze had long been fixed on that peeled-back newspaper, her eyes excited and shocked; Chen Fu and Chen Mu had more or less the same expression.

Li Yu followed their gaze, and this one look instantly stunned him dumb.

After peeling back the newspaper, inside was not hell money, but a whole thick stack of Renminbi, neat and tidy!

Chen Fu and Chen Mu probably hadn't seen this much money in their entire lives, their eyes couldn't even close; Chen Na was even more stunned in place, also unable to utter a word for a long while.

Chen Lan finally walked up from behind, even directly blocking the stiff Li Yu in front of her, and said to her parents very calmly, "Dad, Mom, this money was all earned by Wenyu this month; today it's all given to you."

Jiang Wenyu also nodded silently, and after exchanging a glance with Chen Lan, both their faces carried faint smiles.

"……" Chen Fu and Chen Mu still hadn't snapped back to their senses.

"L... lies!" But the first to react was actually Chen Na on the side; she retreated two or three steps in disbelief, pointing at Jiang Wenyu and shouting angrily, "You... you're lying! How could you possibly earn this much money in a month? Impossible... you..."

Speaking here she seemed to think of something, biting her lip and glaring at Jiang Wenyu as she shouted, "Right! You definitely went gambling again; this money is definitely from gambling!"

The moment these words came out, Jiang Wenyu's face instantly turned a bit ugly, but just as he was about to retort, Chen Lan at his side stepped forward first, her expression even angrier than his own, showing no mercy even to her own biological sister, saying, "Wenyu promised me he wouldn't gamble anymore, so he absolutely wouldn't gamble! This money was all earned through his hard work this month; how could it be from gambling!"

Chen Lan's firm attitude warmed Jiang Wenyu's heart greatly, but Chen Na still sneered coldly, beads of sweat rising on her forehead, saying, "You... you two definitely colluded; yes, you're definitely in cahoots! Dad! This money is definitely from gambling, definitely is!"

Faced with Chen Na's adamant insistence, Jiang Wenyu and Chen Lan's faces also grew increasingly ugly.

But at this moment, Chen Fu suddenly stood up, gazing at Jiang Wenyu with incomparable seriousness, and asked forcefully, "Jiang Wenyu, I ask you, this money really isn't from gambling?"

Jiang Wenyu also answered seriously, "Absolutely not."

Chen Fu stared at Jiang Wenyu for a good long while, then looked at his beloved daughter Chen Lan, and finally sighed, looking at that thick stack of money and finally said, "Forget it; since Lanlan believes you this much, we have nothing more to say."

"Dad!" Chen Na shouted unwillingly, "Dad, did you forget how he treated my sister? He even hit my sister! And... and how could this waste of his possibly earn that much money in a month!"

Ten thousand yuan — this is an astronomical figure, whether for their family or for Jiang Wenyu, it's an astronomical figure. But to say there was reluctance wasn't really much; money can be earned again, and the current Jiang Wenyu only wanted to use this money to help Chen Lan ease the family relations.

When this proposal was made, Chen Lan naturally opposed it vehemently as well; after all, that was ten thousand yuan, but in the end she still reluctantly agreed after listening to Jiang Wenyu's persuasion.

Her own man's hard-earned money being called gambling winnings, Chen Lan was naturally extremely displeased; this strong woman at this moment finally revealed her character for the first time.
