Chapter 779: White-Eyed Wolf
Song Xiao snatched the property certificate from her hand and said, "What are you looking at? Have you never seen it before?"
The red cover of the property certificate stung Song Cun's eyes. She asked in a suppressed voice, "Mom, why didn't you discuss buying a house with me?"
Her mother didn't even raise her eyelids to look at her. She said angrily, "How can I have time to discuss this with you? You leave early and come back late every day. Can't you see what time you get home from get off work recently?"
Song Cun recently took over a heavy project, and she would not get home until after 10 o'clock after working overtime. Her mother was already asleep when she got home.
Song Xiao rolled his eyes at Song Cun and said with contempt, "Why should I discuss this with you? Do you think you know everything? My uncle is a top real estate agent. Do you think you're better than him?"
Her mother looked up at Song Xiao and said nothing.
For a moment, Song Cun suddenly wanted to disappear from this house. She wanted to escape. This home was like a cage that locked her up. Her mother and her brother were the ones holding the key to the cage, and she was the only one struggling desperately in this cage.
However, she remained calm. "Mom, ask my uncle to return the house. Even if you have to pay the penalty, house prices have been plummeting. No one will invest in a house right now unless they have an urgent need. Save this money first, and we'll invest in suitable financial products when we find one."
Her mother and Song Xiao's faces changed color almost at the same time.
"The house has already been bought, and I can't return it. Besides, your brother will definitely have to buy a house when he gets married. We just need it. Why can't we buy it first and rent it out to earn some rent every month? Do we have to do it your way?"
"Don't argue with her. She's just thinking about the money. She talks better than she sings. But once you actually buy the house, she'll change her attitude."
"Song Cun, can you please stop being so hypocritical?"
Song Cun turned his head and looked at Song Xiao. Almost completely unconsciously, he raised his hand and hit Song Xiao.
Song Xiao was no pushover at all. He was 1.7 meters tall, almost a head taller than Song Cun. He slapped Song Cun in the face with his backhand.
The burning pain on her face was not even a fraction of the stinging pain in her heart. Song Cun's eyes were wet, but she didn't let the tears fall. She looked at Song Xiao steadily and said in a hoarse voice, "In your eyes, you have never seen me as your sister, even though you just took the living expenses from me. Song Xiao, what do you take me for? An ATM?"
Song Xiao rolled his eyes at her coldly, "Don't talk about money. No one forced you to stay in this family. Your parents paid for your education for so many years. Now that you've earned a little money, you act like a big shot. Do you think the whole family has to obey you?"
"Song Xiao, stop talking!"
Her mother pretended to pull Song Xiao twice.
She turned to Song Cun and said, "You too, as a sister, why did you hit him? How could you bear to hit your own brother so hard? Song Xiao's glasses are new. Look, you slapped them crooked."
How much strength could Song Cun use? The form of her slap was more important than the strength. Song Xiao's glasses were just crooked, but he slapped Song Cun hard and loudly. The five finger marks on Song Cun's face were clearly visible, but her mother chose to turn a blind eye.
Song Cun didn't say another word. He picked up his bag, turned around, opened the door and went out.
Behind her, amidst the sound of the door closing, she heard Song Xiao talking to her mother, "Go away and have some peace and quiet."
Song Cun thought she would cry, as if her heart was pierced by countless holes, but in fact, she didn't shed a single tear.
