Chapter 125 Whose Friend

"You are my son's friend?"

Zhou Nuan didn't answer her directly. She walked inside with the fruit in her hand. When Old Lady Wang wanted to take it, she cleverly avoided it.

Old Lady Wang was not annoyed: This woman is obviously a rich person, and it is normal for rich people to have a bit of temper.

"No one has come since Youzhi went in. All those people who usually call each other brothers are nowhere to be seen. The so-called brothers are just some bad friends. It's really rare that you can come."

Old Lady Wang followed Zhou Nuan and kept talking, her tone full of dissatisfaction and disdain, "Especially that Gu, Gu Xiyue, I heard he's very rich, a big boss, but so what if he's a big boss, he's so stingy, if he's so rich and treats Youzhi as a brother, he should give some money to save my son."

Zhou Nuan stopped suddenly, and Old Lady Wang was caught off guard and almost bumped into her.

Fortunately, she stopped and looked up to see the delicate-looking girl in front of her sizing her up. Her beautiful eyes were clear and contained a chill that made people feel inexplicably cold.

"Just now I seemed to hear someone swearing? Or did I hear it wrongly, and it was actually a dog barking?"

Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed. "No, it's my daughter-in-law. Oh, let's not talk about this. I'll go get you some tea."

She went to the kitchen happily. Zhou Nuan glanced at her coldly and walked straight into the room.

The room was small and had no windows. The smell of medicine and mold mixed together, which was not pleasant. The things in the room were neatly tidied, and it was obvious that the previous owner had put in a lot of effort. A skinny figure was curled up under the thick quilt on the bed. If it weren't for the suppressed coughing sounds, she wouldn't have known that there was a person lying under the quilt.

“Cough cough cough…”

"Mrs. Wang?" Zhou Nuan called out tentatively and walked to the bedside.

The woman in front of him was shockingly thin, her eyes were wide open, and she looked at Zhou Nuan with some fear.

"You, ahem, who are you?"

"I'm Xiyue's lover, my name is Zhou Nuan, and he asked me to come see you."

Zhou Nuan placed the fruit basket on the table next to her. "Sister-in-law, how do you feel? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Hearing Gu Xiyue's name, Zhi's wife's eyes sparkled with life. She didn't care about anything else and half-raised herself and said anxiously, "Please help Youzhi. I can write an IOU and pay the highest interest. It's all because of me that he's been dragged down. Ahem."

She started coughing violently, and Zhou Nuan quickly patted her on the back to help her calm down.

"Don't worry, Zhige has already paid the fine he owed. But he broke the law after all, so he will definitely be in prison for a while. Don't worry, it's okay."

"Well, how long will it be locked up then?"

"The fine was paid on time, and Brother Zhi has a good attitude towards admitting his guilt, so it won't take long." Zhou Nuan comforted, "Brother Zhi was worried about you, so he asked me to bring you some living expenses..."

She took out the money she had prepared a long time ago. When Zhi's wife saw it, she panicked and said, "Ahem, no, I can't take it..."

“Just take it.” Zhou Nuan stuffed it into her hand.

Just then, footsteps were heard at the door. It was Old Lady Wang who came in with a cup of unknown tea. Seeing this situation, she hurried over, threw the cup aside, and was about to reach out to snatch the money from Zhi Sao's hand.

He cursed in a vicious voice, "You loser woman, you sick chicken, you don't even want the money you got? Are you stupid?"

Zhi's sister-in-law was weak and frail, so she easily snatched it away. Zhou Nuan frowned.

Seeing her mother-in-law counting the money greedily, Zhisao felt ashamed and guilty, and said with a weak breath, "Mom, hey, we can't take this money."

Even if Zhou Nuan didn't say where the traffic fine came from, she knew in her heart that it must have been collected by his brothers. He already owed them a favor, so how could he have the nerve to ask for other people's money?

"Why can't I take it?" Old Lady Wang glared at her fiercely. "Is that for you? That's for my son! Why can't I take my son's money? Do you want to starve me to death? How can you be so vicious? You've hurt Youzhi and you want to kill me? This money comes just in time, so I don't have to go looking for it in this shabby place of yours..."

He turned to face Zhou Nuan again, his tone becoming flattering, "Thank you, you are such a kind person, my son has made a loyal friend..."

Zhou Nuan pulled the corner of her mouth towards her, then suddenly reached out and snatched the Great Unity from her hand, which was not yet warm.

She acted so suddenly that before Old Lady Wang could react, the money had already been returned to the other person. She couldn't help but get angry and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I'm sorry, I'm not your son's friend, I'm her friend." Zhou Nuan pointed at Zhi's wife who was also obviously stunned, "I gave this money to my sister as her friend. It has nothing to do with your son, and it's certainly none of your business."

Old Lady Wang was stunned. How come she didn't know that this spendthrift had such a rich friend?

Before, she could say that it was money for her son, and that what belonged to her son was hers and no one could find fault with her for showing filial piety. But if she said that it was given to her by this spendthrift friend, then she would have nothing to do with it.

Otherwise, just wait until this woman leaves and then force the spendthrift to take out the stuff.

She was thinking in her mind, her eyes rolling around, clearly planning something bad.

Zhou Nuan was speechless.

There are so many top-notch people. Is it because she has a body type that attracts top-notch people? Otherwise, how come she can always meet top-notch people wherever she goes? Or maybe the author arranged it on purpose. It's obvious that she is stuck in writing.

She raised her eyebrows, handed the money back to Zhi's wife, and changed her address, "Sister, you have to take this money carefully, and don't give it to anyone else. This is from me, and it has nothing to do with Wang Youzhi. If anyone dares to force you to pay and I find out, I'm sorry, I have a bad temper, and I'll see you at the police station."

She glanced at Old Lady Wang, and it was obvious who the "someone" was referring to.

Old Lady Wang was annoyed and snorted, "It's just a few bucks, isn't it? My second son can earn a lot, who cares? If you hadn't begged me, I wouldn't even bother to serve you, so you better take care of yourself!"

She slammed the door and walked out, and the door panel made a loud noise due to the lack of force.

A layer of tears covered Zhisao's dry eyes, and she blinked hard to prevent the tears from falling out.

With a trembling voice, he said, "Sister, sister, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

After that, he started coughing violently again, which made Zhou Nuan feel worried. "Sister-in-law, how about I take you to the hospital?"

Sister Zhi waved her hands feebly and finally stopped coughing. "No, it's an old problem. It's a waste of money to go."

"Can you do it alone?"

It seemed that Wang Youzhi had asked the old woman to take care of his wife before he went in. However, from what he said just now, the old woman not only did not take good care of her, but also looted his house for money and belongings to give to her second son.

They are both biological sons, and it is rare for her to be so partial to them. If Wang Youzhi didn't look a bit like her, she would have thought that Wang Youzhi was adopted.
