Chapter 144 Where Has All the Money Gone (5)_1
After all, this money would be hers by tomorrow.
Shangguan You kept rolling her eyes. "If you want to invite someone, go ahead. Nobody is getting a cent of my money. This money is for the You Family, and no one else can take it."
Shangguan Zhi, along with one of his sons and a grandson, walked down from upstairs. They heard the Old Madam’s angry words; she had repeatedly emphasized that Shangguan You should hand over the money to Gu Wanying to manage. Li Wanying, on the other hand, looked somewhat conflicted, as if she wanted to accept it but was hesitant about the responsibility.
"Old Master, surely you see the logic in what I’m saying?" the Old Madam glared at Shangguan You resentfully.
"Grandpa, Eldest Uncle, Sister is still young. I also think it’s not safe to leave the money in her hands. It would be better off with Mom," Shangguan Rou said softly.
"Actually," Li Wanying chimed in, addressing Shangguan You, "if Little You doesn’t want to give it to me, perhaps she could entrust it to Dad and Mom, or to her eldest uncle and aunt. That way, Little You can also be at ease."
"Nonsense! You are Little You’s stepmother. Why shouldn’t you be the one to hold onto it? It makes no sense to give it to her uncle and aunt instead," the Old Madam snarled. Li Wanying’s heart blossomed with joy; finally, she could rightfully claim several hundred million.
Shangguan Zhi’s sharp eyes calmly swept across everyone, taking in every expression before finally resting on Shangguan You.
Everyone else was red-faced, squabbling over her money, yet she alone sat there, watching the drama unfold with a faint smile. Was this truly Little You?
"Dad, Mom, I think since the money belongs to Little You, we should see what she wants to do with it. Why should we bother arguing?" Shangguan Yu’s gaze also lingered on Shangguan You. Seeing her expression and then looking at the others, he couldn’t help but find it amusing. This girl had already made up her mind. The others still hadn’t understood and continued to argue over her, which was entirely pointless.
