"Why did you kick me, Sister?"

Ping'an opened his mouth, but after pondering for a long while, he couldn't find a single word in rebuttal.
Ruyi scoffed lightly. "Let me ask you this. You haven't gone back all this time—not because you were too busy, but because you didn't have travel money. Right?"
Ping'an hesitated. "I..."
"So I was right."
Ruyi continued, "A certain someone wrote such lovely letters, bragging about how they were living large in the Capital City, about how much wealth they had. But in the end, it was all just a stubborn front. Where are your silver taels?"
