Dai Qinxue refused, smiling faintly as she adjusted her silk scarf. Her serene and elegant demeanor made Zhou Fangchun feel ashamed of herself.
The money still had to be given, and Zhou Fangchun forcibly stuffed it into Dai Qinxue's suitcase.
Dai Qinxue was in a real predicament and called Zhou Jian'an to take a look. Zhou Jian'an's eyelids twitched. His sister had actually given him two thousand yuan! Of course, she had something in mind when she gave him the money. He had settled down with Dai Qinxue and would visit her father-in-law's family later. Would her father-in-law ignore him when he heard that his brother-in-law was working in Deyang?
“We’re all family, there’s no need to distinguish between you and me, just accept it,” Zhou Jian’an said.
Dai Qinxue reluctantly agreed.
Zhou Fangchun was really worried that Dai Qinxue wouldn't want the money, but now that she had accepted it, Zhou Fangchun was naturally happy and told Xu Yiyi to go to the car to find Mao Xia to play with.
Mao Xia was sitting in the back seat of the car reciting her lessons. The exam was coming up soon, and Chu Yu's perfect score on the math paper made her feel like she was facing a formidable enemy. She was unwilling to lose to her cousin, who was inferior to her in every way. She hadn't even had time to eat these past few days and had been working very hard.
Xu Yiyi gently knocked on the car door, "Mao Xia, are you still studying?"
Mao Xia comes from a wealthy family, ranks third in her grade, and was voted the school beauty by the students of Dezhong Middle School. In front of many classmates from the countryside, she has every reason to be proud.
She was always full of confidence, but she couldn't help but feel inferior in front of Xu Yiyi.
Xu Yiyi is the granddaughter of the Dai family in Beijing. She comes from a wealthy family, has received a good education, and is always the center of attention. Her family background gives her a confidence that Mao Xia does not have.
No matter how capable Mao Guangyu was, he was just a minor official. How could he dare to stand tall and proud in front of the Dai family?
"Sister Yiyi."
Xu Yiyi grabbed her hand, "Little sister Mao Xia, you are the only friend I made during this trip to Deyang. Uncle Mao and Aunt Zhou have been very good to me. My mother and I will never forget you. With the power of our Dai family, it would only take a word for Uncle Mao to get promoted."
Mao Xia's heart skipped a beat. If her father could also take a step forward, would she be able to have the same confidence as Xu Yiyi?
“It’s my fault for misunderstanding with your cousin Chu Yu. She went to Deyang Middle School to repeat her senior year, probably because she wanted to go to Beijing to get close to Hanqiao. Hanqiao and I are very close, and I’m really afraid of hurting her,” Xu Yiyi sighed. “If only she didn’t go to Beijing. Staying in Deyang, getting married, and raising children would be a good life, wouldn’t it?”
