Chapter 208: Money

"What's wrong with you? Did it freeze?"

Su Yu feels a bit numb; what should she do if the system freezes? She can't fix this system!

"It's not a freeze!"

"If it's not a freeze, then his money is the problem; just say it directly!"

Su Yu feels she has a strong heart! No matter how Qin Yuanjun's money came, she can accept it!

"All the money he used was given by Su Yi."

"Su Yi? Su! Yi! He's crazy! Doesn't he know Qin Yuanjun blackmailed my mother? Does he want to be kicked out of the house?"

Su Xi also thinks her younger brother is crazy!

"That money was given earlier; Qin Yuanjun hasn't returned it to Su Yi."

"Won't he ask for it back? Is he an idiot? Won't he cause a stir online to boost my mother's and uncle's Hot Search? Won't he report the police to warn Qin Yuanjun? Won't he ask Qin Zhenzhong for it?"

Su Yu tosses the book onto the sofa, jumps down, and paces back and forth on the blanket! It really makes her furious!

How long has Su Yi been awake? He hasn't gone to retrieve all that money?

Useless!

He's decided he doesn't want this son anymore, so be ruthless!

After several days, Su Yi, having reclaimed all the money, moved next to Ji Yan, who was building blocks with Su Yu, and pitifully said, "Wife, I finally got the money back!"

He can only do rehab each day, miserably under the Doctor's guidance, longing to see his wife! Yet Ji Yan, who can hear Su Yu's thoughts, stands by Su Yu and doesn't really pay him any attention.

Su Xi sends a message, giving Su Yi a harsh scolding!

Su Yi, who is in rehab: …

Even the biggest family business can't withstand a failure like Qin Yuanjun's!

What Qin Yuanjun took back then wasn't a small sum. Besides the pocket money he borrowed before Su Yi's incident, Qin Yuanjun also took all of Su Yi's equity dividends from Hua Jing Entertainment at that time.

Su Yi mutters to himself internally, but still earnestly recounts the whole story of asking Qin Yuanjun for the money.

Both father and daughter lack musical talent; she does this just to annoy him!

Can he say he was so happy that he forgot?

That night, Su Yi stayed in a single room again! His wife was called away by Su Yu once more.

Ji Yan is immune to Su Yi's feigned helplessness, "Speak, what's going on?"

But he feels guilty!

Su Yi goes to visit the Qin family.

What a useless person!

Let's see what she can do!

Su Yu, with keen insight, moves a small stool, calls the butler for a whole table of peanuts, sunflower seeds, drinks, chips, marinated snacks, and cold dishes, places them before Ji Yan, indicating she should eat while listening.

Back then Su Yi and Qin Yuanjun were close; Su Xi was busy with company matters, busy finding a doctor for Su Yi, and didn't care about where the money went, so Qin Yuanjun each time "collected on his behalf," and the money never went into Su Yi's account.

For the next week, Su Yu not only snatched people at night, but also didn't work during the day, stayed home all day, demanding Ji Yan to keep her company, play with her, and teach her an instrument.

Su Yi twitches his mouth corner!

He doesn't want to twitch his mouth corner now; he wants to pull a child!

Qin Zhenzhong is utterly disappointed with Qin Yuanjun, only returning the pocket money Qin Yuanjun borrowed from Su Yi. The equity dividends are for Su Yi to sue for. If it really doesn't work, they can send Qin Yuanjun to prison!

The Qin family's great enterprise isn't unable to produce this sum, but Qin Zhenzhong still wants to raise grandchildren and refuses to allocate so much money to fill Qin Yuanjun's hole. He's also worried that by opening a loophole with Su Yi, a continuous stream of people will later come to him demanding repayment of the money Qin Yuanjun borrowed.

At first, Qin Zhenzhong thought Su Yi was visiting his uncle as a relative. After a conversation and reviewing the evidence, Qin Zhenzhong finally accepted the fact that Qin Yuanjun had borrowed so much money from Su Yi over the years.

Su Yi didn't force it; following Qin Zhenzhong's wishes, he will sue Qin Yuanjun.

The current president of Hua Jing Entertainment, Wang Jun De, is under Su Xi; within an hour he gave Su Yi the requested documents, thoughtfully sorting them. Su Yi then approached the Su Clan's legal department and public relations department; the former filed a case, the latter staged an online campaign, putting Qin Yuanjun and Guan Xianxian on Hot Search.

Qin Yuanjun contacted Su Yi that day, initially hurling insults, accusing Su Yi of lacking brotherly loyalty and kicking him when he's down!

After learning that Su Yi had approached Qin Zhenzhong with his consent, they (on QQ) searched and returned part of the money.

……

Guan Xianxian, who shared online tips for pregnant women living in greenhouse houses, only shared for a few days before being forced to move out of that warm house into an ordinary three‑bedroom apartment.

The three‑bedroom's environment is ordinary, but the gap from the previous house is huge. Netizens also berated and cursed her over Qin Yuanjun owing Su Yi money. Guan Xianxian has to cry once every day!

Her and Qin Yuanjun's accounts both blew up because of this, earning a sizable traffic fee, but she isn't happy at all.

"Shall we hire a nanny?"

Guan Xianxian looks longingly at Qin Yuanjun. A few days ago she lived in a warm, spring‑like big house where she never felt cold wherever she went. Every day a servant tidied the house; anything left messy would be arranged by the next day. Opening the wardrobe each day revealed soft, clean clothes. Because she dislikes seeing the servant, the servant rarely appears during her active hours.

Morning, noon, and night, a five‑star hotel chef prepares nutritious meals for pregnant women—delicious and nourishing. There are also various snacks and supplement soups, so she'll never go hungry.

After moving here, she has to cook herself, and the food is terribly bad. The house uses central heating, either too hot or too cold, with no way to set a comfortable temperature. Pregnancy reactions combined with the poor external environment make her feel miserable.

Most importantly, she must do the housework herself! After washing dishes for a few days, her hands became visibly rough, and she feels like she's aging!

But she hadn't bought pregnancy‑specific skincare products before; previously a specialist came daily to tend to her skin.

Now she wants to buy some, but the cheap ones don't appeal to her, and the expensive ones are beyond her reach.

"Xianxian, I'm sorry, I made you suffer following me!"

"No, Jun, this is proof of my love for you!"

Guan Xianxian can't stand this life any longer; while Qin Yuanjun goes out to sell his collectibles for cash, she seeks Shi Yu.

Guan Xianxian doesn't call ahead, but goes straight to the private room where Shi Yu usually is to find him, wanting to give him a surprise!

"Brother Yu!"

Shi Yu almost drops the glass of red wine in his hand, "Why did you come?"

Guan Xianxian's eyes brim with tears, "Our child can't endure such injustice, Brother Yu!"

"At a time like this, how can you go out? What if something happens?"

Shi Yu hurriedly led Guan Xianxian to another private room. He turned around to make sure no one was around, inspected the room, and when he found no other equipment, he let out a sigh of relief.

If paparazzi caught Guan Xianxian coming to see him, how would the media spin it? Once he publicly announces a relationship with a woman, he'll have to find a suitable excuse when they part, to keep the moral high ground—what a hassle!

Guan Xianxian lowered her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm really so upset!"

Though Guan Xianxian apologized with her mouth, she felt a sweet warmth inside. Her "Yu brother" really does care about her! She gently leaned against Shi Yu's chest, smiled sweetly with her head down, and didn't notice the impatience in Shi Yu's eyes.

Shi Yu, fearing Guan Xianxian might come back and cause trouble, took the initiative and said, "I'll leave a large apartment vacant for you to stay in; stop posting those things online. If those people on the internet follow the photos and videos to the complex, you won't be safe even when you go out for a walk."

Guan Xianxian pouted, "But they're scolding me! I did nothing wrong! I just want to make them die of anger!"

Those people are just jealous of her! So what if she's blacklisted online? She still has people who cherish and protect her; her life is a hundred times better than theirs! She wants them to see every day that she lives a life above others! Make them die of anger!

Shi Yu's forehead throbbed! He suddenly regretted agreeing to give the apartment. That large unit had a death, but no one noticed! He didn't want to live there; renting it out cheap is better than giving it to Guan Xianxian.

While Shi Yu was still hesitating, Guan Xianxian cooed, "Yu brother, I don't want to go live with Qin Yuanjun; I want to live with you! We'll watch the baby in my belly grow together!"

"That would be hard to explain and would put you in a passive position, so be good! The Qin family hasn't completely given up on Qin Yuanjun; he still has great value, so the dear one has to endure it for a while."

In a flash, Shi Yu got a good idea! The person's death could be pinned on Qin Yuanjun. Since Guan Xianxian is leaning toward him, once they squeeze the person dry, to cut ties with Qin Yuanjun, all Shi Yu needs is to mention the matter casually at some point, and Guan Xianxian will proactively suggest the solution he wants!

In the end, this matter won't be linked to him at all!

Thinking of that, Shi Yu looked gently at Guan Xianxian, "I'll send an aunt over; to avoid arousing Qin Yuanjun's suspicion, I can't send someone too good, so the dear one will have to endure it."

"Yu brother, you're so kind…"

Guan Xianxian leaned in Shi Yu's arms, overjoyed. She really did find a great man!

"Dear, you should go back quickly; I'll bring it up to him myself. Since you went out today, find a good reason to explain it!"

"Hmm— I can't bear to let you go!"

Guan Xianxian doesn't want to make an excuse; with Qin Yuanjun, a casual brush‑off will do!

"Be good, it's cold outside; go back early to rest!"

"Alright then!"

……

When the person tracking Guan Xianxian sent this video to Su Xi, Su Xi had just arrived home.

After consulting the butler, he headed straight for the playroom.

"That's it—Uncle Qin repaid part of it, showing he still has some feelings for Qin Yuanjun; I can't really send Qin Yuanjun to prison. Qin Yuanjun paid in installments and only finished today."

Considering the blood ties with the Qin family and their former brotherly bond, Su Yi didn't follow Wang Jun De's revised dividend demand; he only took the money that had been disclosed in previous financial reports.

Wulongcha checked and saw Su Yi's money was off, 【Host, Su Yi is lying to you, this money is wrong!】

【What? The money's wrong? Where's the mistake?】

Su Yu frowned, and Su Yi hurriedly explained the situation of his money. He almost forgot that Su Yu's system can check anything!

Hearing Su Yi say he only followed the previously announced dividend request, Su Yu felt a slight heart attack!

【It's all money! I can draw a lot of cards now! Spendthrift!】

Su Yu's heart wailed inside, and Wulongcha felt the same pain!

Su Xi pressed his younger brother and gave him a beating!

"Brother!"

"Brother, stop hitting!"

"Grandma, help!"

Yang Zhichun came over and let Su Yi decide for himself. Qin Yuanjun has blackmailed Ji Yan many times; he'll take that many beatings! Or he could transfer all his assets into Ji Yan's name, leaving only a fixed allowance of ten thousand yuan per month!

"Grandma, this"

Ji Yan wanted to refuse. She was indeed angry, but there was no need to transfer the property to her.

Yang Zhichun cut her off, "Everyone listen to me!"

Su Yi complained plaintively, "Grandma, ten thousand yuan is too little!"

His cheapest car costs a million! And Su Yu's allowance is a hundred thousand! He should at least have as much as her, right?

"Little Xi, go ahead and hit!"

Seeing his older brother brandish his iron fist ready to strike, Su Yi quickly said, "Ugh! I agree! I agree!"

Su Yi has recently gotten in touch with his family's brothers and sisters. The responsible ones keep warning him to take over the company early and work hard to give the child an excellent growth platform, not to wrong Su Yu! She's a talented good child; he should help her reach higher!

Even a reliable family can't be depended on forever!

When Su Yi hangs out with everyone, he does get carried away and lends money to his brothers and sisters!

He'll eventually be the one supporting a family; if he keeps doing this, the household will eventually erupt into a major conflict!

While his mind is clear and not clouded by reckless ambition, he's also willing to give the wealth to the more prudent and rational Ji Yan.

The next day, Su Yi hired a lawyer and transferred his assets to Ji Yan, receiving a dedicated allowance card with only ten thousand yuan.

Getting the card, Su Yi felt relieved; luckily this month isn't over yet, only a few days away from next month. He'll soon have twenty thousand yuan!

Su Yi returned home, finally able to hug his wife!

Su Yu was taken by Su Xi to the company!

He shamelessly pretended to be pitiful to Ji Yan, "Honey, ten thousand yuan is really a bit low; we can't even buy a bottle of wine when we go out drinking!"

Ji Yan smiled, "You can't drink now!"

The feigned pitiful act failed; Su Yi, mimicking Su Yu, rubbed his face against his wife's, but Ji Yan pushed him away, "If you need to entertain, I'll give you a limited‑amount secondary card. When the child grows up, there will be many expenses; we can't always rely on big brother."

Ji Yan also considered starting a business, but after reviewing case studies she concluded that if you want to go bankrupt, let the clueless second‑generation family members start it.

She's also someone who knows nothing!

In the end, Ji Yan chose to buy shares. She invested the family's allowance into the newly founded company of Liang Lijiang, waiting for dividends.

"Big brother, when will you arrange for Su Yu to go to school? She's not that young anymore! If she finds kindergarten too boring, she can skip ahead to a private elementary school."

School is far more regimented than work. With studies, practical activities, and homework tying Su Yu down, she no longer has the mind to oppose her old father.

「When she wants to go to school, she will naturally go。」

Ji Yan didn't insist. Their family can certainly raise Su Yu. What they, as parents, should do is give Su Yu the greatest freedom within their ability, letting her do whatever she wants!

Su Yi sensed this topic shouldn't continue, 「I don't know why big brother called her to the company. 」
