~7 min read 1,386 words

Half an hour later.

Siyan looked at Qian Li, who was still hugging the bank card and giggling, and said, "Alright, stop kissing it. If you keep kissing it, you'll demagnetize the card."

"No, I have to kiss it. This is fifty million! I never even dared to dream of having this much," Qian Li said.

Then, Qian Li jumped straight up, hugged Siyan, and said, "Siyan, no, rich lady, how about you keep me? I'm delicate and soft, I can cook, I can warm the bed, I can..."

Siyan watched Qian Li rattle on and on, then said calmly, "Sure, is ten million enough?"

"Hmm! Hmm~?" Qian Li nodded subconsciously at first, then realized what she had said. Looking at Siyan's calm yet serious eyes, she said speechlessly, "Siyan, I was just saying that, and I like men, so don't you go getting any ideas about me."

Siyan, whose originally serious expression was ruined by this, was suddenly left speechless.

"I meant that I am preparing to invest twenty million into our company; I will hold ten million, and you will also have ten million," Siyan said wordlessly.

Qian Li was stunned for a moment. She looked at Siyan and realized she was very serious, without the slightest hint of joking.

"Siyan, this is ten million, and you're just giving it to me like that?" Qian Li said, finding it unbelievable.

Siyan nodded and said, "Yes, it's for you."

When Zhang Ran saw her downstairs, Siyan had asked for Zhang Ran's opinion. At the time, Zhang Ran's answer to her was, "From this moment on, this money belongs entirely to you. How you choose to manage it is your business; you don't need to ask for anyone's opinion.

However, I am truly happy that you could still think of Xiao Li at a time like this. One must not be ungrateful; you did well in this regard, and I am proud of you."

At that moment, as Siyan listened to Zhang Ran praising her so earnestly, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in her heart, just like the feeling of being praised by a teacher when she was in elementary school.

Listening to Siyan's words, Qian Li fell into a daze. This was ten million!

It would be a lie to say Qian Li wasn't tempted.

Qian Li's father was a university professor, and her mother was a middle school teacher. They were locals of Shanghai, with a house, a car, and decent jobs.

This was already quite good, but to come up with ten million, unless they sold their family home and took out all their savings, they might barely be able to scrape it together.

But now, this ten million was placed right in front of her. Qian Li believed that as long as she opened her mouth to agree, Siyan would definitely give her the money.

For a moment, Qian Li really wanted to agree immediately, but very quickly, she suppressed the greed in her heart, let out a long breath, and said, "Forget it, I know your intentions, Siyan, but I can't take this money. It's too much!"

Yes, it was just too much.

Just now, Siyan had given her so many clothes and bags, adding up to two hundred thousand, but Qian Li hadn't refused because she knew that given her relationship with Siyan, these things didn't count for much.

But when the amount of money reached ten million, Qian Li couldn't think that way anymore.

Siyan was not surprised to hear Qian Li's refusal, but she immediately looked at Qian Li with a very serious expression and said, "Xiao Li, I won't say any more flowery words. We have been best friends since we were little, and for so many years, you have been the one taking care of me.

Even these past few years because of the Sun family, you didn't give up on me as a best friend, and because of this, you suffered quite a few grievances. I have kept all of this in my heart.

Moreover, you helped me without hesitation when I was at my most difficult. I didn't refuse those things, so I hope this time, you won't refuse me either. We are sisters, the closest of sisters!"

Qian Li opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment. She could see that these words of Siyan's came entirely from the heart, which also moved her somewhat.

Qian Li had been drifting through the business world for these years, and she had seen plenty of people who could share hardships, but those who could share wealth were few and far between.

Now, Siyan could be considered to have made it big, after all, she was holding fifty million in cash, and who knew how much money her biological father still had.

Yet Siyan didn't say a word, taking out ten million to share with her without any conditions; it was pure sharing.

This was ten million!

And it was cash!

Looking at Siyan's earnest and serious eyes, Qian Li finally nodded and said, "Alright, I won't be pretentious anymore. I'll accept this money, but at the end of the day, this money was given to you by Zhang Shu. What is Zhang Shu's opinion on this?"

Qian Li was also worried that if Siyan did this, Zhang Ran might have an opinion. A father had just given money to his daughter, and now the daughter was giving some of it to her; Qian Li was worried that Zhang Ran might have some thoughts about Siyan in his heart.

Hearing Qian Li's words, Siyan immediately became happy, "Don't worry, I've already talked to him about it. He has no objections; on the contrary, he is very supportive of me doing this. He even praised me."

Speaking to the end, Siyan actually revealed a faint, naive, and charming demeanor, just like when she was a child being praised by her parents for doing a good deed.

Qian Li was stunned, then said, "Hahaha, so now I can be considered a rich lady?"

"Yes, hello, Rich Lady Qian!"

"Alright, hello to you too, Rich Lady Zhang!"

In Zhang Sicheng's bedroom.

Zhang Sicheng watched as Liu Lu tried on clothes one by one. His face was full of helplessness. At first, she kept saying it was too expensive, too wasteful, and that clothes were just for wearing.

But now, she was like a little girl, trying on every single one of her new outfits.

"Hubby, look at me, do I look good in this?" Liu Lu said to Zhang Sicheng, who was lying on the bed, after changing her clothes.

"Mm-hmm, you look good," Zhang Sicheng said immediately.

Liu Lu didn't care about Zhang Sicheng's perfunctory response and continued changing her clothes, not feeling sleepy at all.

"By the way, hubby, do you think I should wear these clothes tomorrow?" Liu Lu asked with some hesitation.

Zhang Sicheng didn't even think about it and said, "Wear them, why wouldn't you? Aren't clothes bought to be worn? Do you really want to keep them in the closet just to admire them?"

Liu Lu was somewhat tempted, but she said, "But don't you think it will be too flashy if I wear this out? People will gossip."

"Why do you care about them? We bought these clothes with our own money, why shouldn't we be able to wear them?" Zhang Sicheng said.

In fact, his own heart was still in a mess right now. Saying these things to Liu Lu was more like saying them to himself.

Hearing her husband's words, Liu Lu stopped struggling. How could she not like such clothes? She just couldn't quite let go of her reservations.

"Then what about this money? Should I put it with you?" Liu Lu remembered the bank card Zhang Ran had given her.

Zhang Sicheng said, "You absolutely must not. Dad gave this to you. Don't you understand his meaning? It means that from now on, the family's financial power is handed over to you to manage. I wouldn't dare to make decisions on my own."

Liu Lu actually vaguely understood Zhang Ran's meaning, and her heart felt a wave of warmth. Zhang Ran truly regarded her, his daughter-in-law, as family; otherwise, he wouldn't have done this.
