Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Zhe said that Xia Wen’s salary was not even enough to cover his own family’s daily expenses and that he had other difficulties at home. Although Xia He made a lot of money, it had all been spent on the Kong family.

Now that Xia He wanted to get a divorce and come out to live on her own, it would be a good thing to buy a house.

“I don’t like living in the workplace dormitory, but if I live at home, there’s always Second Aunt-in-law and the rest nagging me. It’s also not convenient to stay with Aunt. I think it’ll be nice to have my own home,” Xia He said.

“Then you can stay in my courtyard house. Or you can even be neighbors with me!” Qiao Mei said as she held Xia He’s hand.

Xia He reached out and gently knocked Qiao Mei’s head as she said, “Do you think I’m like you, little rich woman? All my money has been taken by the Kong family and I don’t have much money now. I can’t even afford a small house and you still want me to buy a courtyard house!”

“Then do you still want to continue working in the art troupe? Or do you want to do some business?” Qiao Mei asked.

Qiao Mei wanted to get Xia He to go into business with her. Based on the way Xia He analyzed the issue of the logistics company just now, she would definitely be able to do well for herself! This way, everyone would be able to earn money and they might even be able to build a family business in the future!

“Me? I don’t have that kind of brain. Besides, you need to face the fact that there will always be both profits and losses in business. I don’t think I have the appropriate attitude to deal with that. I think I should just stay in the art troupe obediently. My salary is quite good there,” Xia He said in satisfaction.

Qiao Mei did not continue to persuade her. These things could be discussed again in the future.

Kong Lu walked along the road dejectedly with a pile of papers in his hand. Those were telegrams from his colleagues back home.

The messages were all similar. They all said that they had their own difficulties at home and could not lend any money to him. A few even said that they still owed other people money and could not help him at all.

Kong Lu looked angrily at the telegrams in his hand. When these people were in trouble, Kong Lu had given them a lot of money as gifts. Now, he could not even get back a single cent. They were all heartless people!

“Do you think that’s brother-in-law?” Qiao Mei asked as she pointed at Kong Lu in the distance.

“Hmph, from the looks of it, he definitely didn’t manage to get any money,” Xia He said mockingly.

Kong Lu frantically tore up all the papers in his hand. He originally wanted to throw the pieces into the air, but the people around him looked at him strangely, so he could only hold on to them awkwardly.

Xia He sneered. At this point in time, he still cared so much about his reputation. He could really control his emotions well. It was such a pity that he did not become an actor.

“Brother-in-law, where are you going?” Qiao Mei walked forward and stopped Kong Lu.

Kong Lu looked up in surprise. At this hour, it was usually the Xia family’s mealtime at home. He wondered why they were in the park.

“Ah… Why are you here?” Kong Lu asked with a smile.

“Elder sister and I just went to buy things we need at home, and we’re about to go back.” Qiao Mei looked at the post office behind Kong Lu and said, “Brother-in-law, did you just come back from the post office? You must have already gotten the 2,000 dollars.”

Kong Lu said with a troubled expression, “It will still take another three to five days…”

“Three to five days? That’s true. It takes time to send mail from another city to the capital,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

What she said made Kong Lu even more afraid to look up. Xia He secretly gave Qiao Mei a look. She knew that Old Madam Kong would never give the money to Kong Lu. She had given him the ultimatum to return the money immediately so that he could see Old Madam Kong’s true colors for himself.

“It can’t be that long. I remember that sending money by post will take about two days. The Kong family does not stay far from the capital.” Xia He smiled at Kong Lu.

Kong Lu knew that he could not hide this matter. He looked up at Xia He and said, “Mother doesn’t want to lend it to me. She said that she doesn’t have any money anymore.”

Qiao Mei said in surprise, “Ah? How can she be broke? I thought elder sister paid for all the expenses in the family over the years?”

This made Kong Lu feel even more ashamed because Old Madam Kong had said she did not have a single cent due to the family expenses being too high.

“The last time, your brother said that there was a leak in his house and that the roof needed repairs. Your mother gave him 2,000 dollars without saying anything. I remember that Kong Li saw it and even bragged to me that your mother still has 5,000 dollars left,” Xia He said.

Kong Lu looked at Xia He in disbelief.?How was this possible! Was his illness not as important as his younger brother’s house?
