Chapter 8: Bluff
"I didn't..." Li Hehua retorted subconsciously.
"Hey, I understand." The aunt from the management office whispered in her ear.
They are all women, how can I not understand women's little thoughts? Li Hehua and Yang Xiujing are the same age and see each other every day. She is a college student, tall and handsome, and earns a lot of money. It is normal for her to be attracted to him.
Li Hehua had no way to defend herself.
I just feel pale and powerless.
She has always admired and respected Yang Xiujing, and felt that she was not worthy of such a pure and flawless person, so she did not want to be defiled by Chen Qing.
The onlookers have already believed it. Seeing Li Hehua's jealous attitude towards Chen Qing just now, those who know her think she is a neighbor, while those who don't think she is the enemy who murdered her father might think she is the enemy.
As soon as you open your mouth, you're a bitch who deserves to be put in Chen Qing's pig cage!
If they weren't love rivals, how could there be such a deep hatred?
Everyone ate a big bite of the melon and went home satisfied.
He Yuxiang watched the whole process with his brows still furrowed.
Is that vicious woman crazy today?
Why would I be willing to stand up for them today?
In the past, even if he was beaten black and blue outside, this woman wouldn't even bat an eyelid. Did she think her interests were violated?
He Yuxiang was puzzled.
After returning home, he saw Chen Qing just coming out of the kitchen without the hatchet in his hand, so he asked, "You went with the hatchet, why didn't you chop anyone?"
Chen Qing: "The hatchet is my weapon, but it's not for chopping people, understand?"
He Yuxiang pursed his lips.
Seeing that he didn't ask, Chen Qing didn't explain.
Suffocate him!
"Hello."
He Yuxiang called her awkwardly.
Chen Qing turned his head: "What?"
"My parents...were they killed by someone's plot?" He Yuxiang raised his head high and stared straight into her eyes, not wanting to miss even the slightest expression.
Since he was a child, he has heard his mother say that his father is the greatest man in the world.
He Yuxiang admires his father very much, and his biggest wish in the future is to become a soldier to defend his country!
But my father died and my mother left.
Those warm days are gone forever.
If someone really killed his parents, He Yuxiang felt that he would not let that person go even if he died!
Chen Qing lowered his head, feeling the child's trembling when he mentioned his parents.
The villain's sinisterness and world-weariness can be seen in the child's distinct black and white pupils.
Chen Qing's heart trembled slightly. He pondered for a moment and sighed deliberately.
"Since you asked, I have no choice but to tell you the truth."
He Yuxiang was so nervous that he even slowed down his breathing.
He Yuting, who was squatting in the corner like a little quail, also pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
"You remember your mother gave you a piece of gold, right?"
"...Yeah." He Yuxiang nodded suspiciously, and then asked: "What does this have to do with the gold my mother gave me?"
"It's a big deal. Do you know who has gold in this era?"
"Who?"
He Yuxiang inexplicably had a bad feeling.
"capitalist!"
"Impossible, my father is a soldier." He Yuxiang quickly denied.
"Why would I lie to you? That's gold. Do you know how much one gram of gold costs in the market?"
Today, one gram of gold costs 16 yuan.
It’s equivalent to a worker’s half-month salary!
Chen Qing saw his serious expression and knew that he had listened, so he used his designer's storytelling ability and continued to fool him: "But don't worry, your father's death was definitely a sacrifice for the country, but so many people in our family have passed away one after another, there must be something strange. Why am I telling you this today? It's because I almost died two days ago."
He Yuxiang was shocked!
This woman almost died?
He Yuting in the corner stood up suddenly: "Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, luckily I escaped this disaster. For the past six months, I have been abusing you and trying to cheat you out of your gold. You have been very good at sticking to your original intentions and listening to your mother's words. Auntie is very satisfied."
Chen Qing had a gratified expression on his face.
He Yuting was afraid that her aunt would disappear from her sight in the next second. She was enveloped by a huge panic and her tears flowed out like a flood. The big tears fell down. She was afraid of missing what her aunt said, so she covered her mouth tightly to prevent herself from crying out loud.
The child's crying made Chen Qing feel guilty.
She will definitely treat the two children better and better in the future, so she must find a reason, preferably a reason that can cover up the ridiculous things the original owner did.
But the child cried so sadly that Chen Qing couldn't help but wipe He Yuting's tears.
This child looks so much like her.
Although she looks well-behaved, she is actually bold, crybaby and sensitive.
Holding her in his arms, Chen Qing gently patted her back, "It's okay, isn't my aunt alive and well now?"
He Yuting clutched the clothes on her shoulders with her small hands and asked with sobs, "Do they want money?"
Chen Qing pretended to be profound: "Yes, and no."
"What does that mean?" He Yuxiang was annoyed.
Although he particularly hated this woman, he could not deny that she was their only relative.
If he lost his aunt, then he would definitely not be able to keep the house, and they would have to go to an orphanage. After going to the orphanage, he and his sister would definitely be separated!
My sister is a girl with such a good personality, she will definitely be bullied!
He Yuxiang didn't even dare to think about that scene.
Chen Qing cursed secretly in his heart: Naughty child!
She calmed the child down and said, "They heard that we have a lot of money, but they are not 100% sure. Besides, everyone in our family is of good family background and cannot be killed at will. They can only try their best to force us to see if we will take out the money when we are desperate! If we take it out, they will definitely take it away. So if you don't encounter an extremely urgent situation, don't take out the money, understand?"
"It's just a small piece of gold, do they care about it?"
He Yuxiang didn’t understand.
But it didn’t feel right.
"Did you see the gold?" Chen Qing asked tentatively, his heart beating fast.
She was gambling too.
The place where gold is gambled is far away from home, and He Yuxiang cannot get in for the time being.
He Yuxiang was embarrassed by being looked at, and turned his head away and said, "No."
Chen Qing heaved a sigh of relief and pretended to have an 'I guessed it' expression.
"I'll tell you. And those bad guys are just guessing. You're young, you don't know that human greed is infinite, so in the past six months, in order not to be killed, I have been working hard to spend money, and even borrowed some money."
"You're still borrowing money. Isn't all the money at home enough for you to squander?!" He Yuxiang was furious.
All the savings of her grandparents and mother were given to her, and she also had a salary. But it has only been a short time, and she has to rely on borrowing money to live!
"Tsk, that's my policy towards the enemy." Chen Qing said unhappily.
"Heh." He Yuxiang sneered.
