Ren Tingxi pushed the check back in front of Ren Tingyi, smiled bitterly and said, "I'm going to chase a girl, how can I let you spend money? I can handle the money myself."
Ren Tingyi looked at his brother in disbelief and said earnestly, "This money is not for you to use to chase girls. If you want to invest in a project, I believe in your vision."
"If you make money, you have to give me a share of the profits."
It is obvious to any discerning person that the projects in Country E have an extremely low rate of return on investment. My brother's words were not about trusting Ren Tingxi's perspective on projects, but about trusting Ren Tingxi's perspective on women.
Ren Tingxi was very happy to have such affirmation from his brother.
He shook the red wine glass in his hand and took a sip slowly.
"Brother, I can't take your money."
Ren Tingxi knew that every penny of the Ren family's money did not come from the wind, but was earned by his elder brother and sister-in-law through hard work in the Ren family over the years.
Moreover, he decided from the beginning to draw a clear line with this family. He wanted to be with Lan Xiaolan based on his own abilities.
So how can I accept my brother’s money?
What's more, it's a huge sum of nine figures.
Ren Tingyi slowly took a sip of the fish soup cooked by his brother. It was fresh, sweet and delicious, and it was really well made.
He didn't care about Ren Tingxi's rejection, and he would not take back the check he had sent. He knew that his brother would not accept his money, but he couldn't let go of his brother in his heart.
“This fish soup tastes really good.”
"Of course, I caught this fish myself today just to make this fish soup for you, big brother."
"This is my Mid-Autumn Festival gift for you."
"Oh?" Ren Tingyi chewed the delicious fish ball in his mouth. It tasted salty and chewy, the fish meat was sweet and soft, and there was not a single bone. It was handled very well.
Ren Tingyi nodded affirmatively while eating the fish soup. The cooking skills were no worse than those of the chef at home.
"The gifts you gave to Mom, Dad, and your sister-in-law were all so thoughtful and precious, and all you gave me were a few large handwritten words and a bowl of fish soup? Hmm?"
Although Ren Tingyi was saying words of dissatisfaction, he was drinking the soup in big gulps. In no time, he had finished a bowl of fish soup.
“Giving gifts depends on what the recipient needs.”
"Money, fame, status, women, you have everything. I really don't know what to give you."
"So, I jumped into the sea and caught you some fresh fish to nourish you."
Ren Tingxi was right. For Ren Tingyi, the only thing he lacked was his health.
There is a saying that goes like this: When God closes a door for you, he will definitely open a window for you.
So in Ren Tingyi's case, maybe God opened all the windows but closed that one door.
"If possible, I would like to give you 10 or even 20 years of my life. I hope my big brother will live a long life."
Ren Tingyi patted Ren Tingxi's shoulder and smiled bitterly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? All men are created equal. Your life is as important as mine."
He clenched his fists and leaned casually on the stool, looking at the bright moon hanging in the night sky, which was very beautiful.
Ren Tingxi filled another bowl of fish soup for his brother. It was rare to see his elder brother have such a good appetite, so he wanted him to eat one more bowl.
Then he poured another glass of red wine into his goblet and drank it in one gulp.
Alcohol flowing through the body can numb the pain in the body and mind, allowing people to temporarily let go of many helplessness and sorrows.
"I didn't fill in the date on the check. You can keep it in case of emergency."
"Don't try to hide the money from me. We're brothers, don't I know how much is in your pocket?"
"You're my brother. If you go to a place like Country E, I'll be worried about you too."
Then Ren Tingyi pushed himself in front of Ren Tingxi again.
Ren Tingxi looked at the neat and flawless check in front of him, not knowing what it meant.
Ren Tingxi knew that his brother had always been the mountain that protected him and supported him from behind. There were many things his brother didn't say, but he knew that his brother was always there.
People outside said that Ren Tingyi was weak and sickly, and was not as mature and steady as his younger brother in his work and behavior.
In fact, Ren Tingxi knew that his brother was the one who shone on him from afar and gave him warmth and motivation. He admired this sun and would never be able to surpass him.
Therefore, not only for Lan Xiaolan, but also for his brother, he should draw a clear line with his brother and the Ren family. He cannot become a stumbling block on the road to success for his brother and sister-in-law.
"Brother, why don't you have a child with your sister-in-law?"
Ren Tingxi's words scared Ren Tingyi so much that he almost choked on his fish soup.
"You little brat, I haven't figured out what happened between you and that girl yet, and now you're meddling in your brother's affairs?"
Ren Tingxi smiled and pointed at the check on the table: "If you have a child, whether it's a boy or a girl, then many problems will be solved."
"My relationship with my sister-in-law might not be like this."
Ren Tingyi lowered his eyes with a cold gaze. He knew that it was because of his poor health that his brother and wife were involved in those messy disputes.
But people cannot just complain about the unfairness of fate, they can only keep looking forward.
"Then tell me first, kid. Why is it that this girl has stayed at your house overnight, but you haven't won her over yet?"
"She doesn't want to, and I don't want to force her. I don't want anything forced between us."
