Chapter 136: Counterkill 1
"Just keep the money for Mom if you don’t need it. I need to use it the day after tomorrow when I go to the city."
Shen Mianmian wasn’t foolish; she knew she wouldn’t get the money even if she agreed, and it would only serve to give Zhou Siyu a good reputation. These kinds of setups that made her work for someone else’s benefit were something she would have fallen for in her past life. But now, Zhou Siyu was bound to be disappointed.
"Sister, are you angry with me? Is that why you don’t want the money?" Zhou Siyu started to look aggrieved, her eyes turning red as if she was about to cry, "Do you think that Uncle and Auntie prefer me over you and that’s why they don’t let you go to school? And so you hate me, don’t you? You haven’t been willing to walk to school with me recently."
Everyone listening to Zhou Siyu was immediately swayed by her emotions.
"Mianmian, Auntie was just praising you for being sensible. You mustn’t be confused! Siyu is a good student. Getting into college will be good for you too!"
"Siyu is good at studying. It would be a shame if she didn’t continue with her education!"
Shen Mianmian blinked and blinked again, a look of confusion on her face, "Siyu, what are you talking about? Aren’t you the one who walks so fast after school that I can’t keep up? I’m not as tall as you, and I just can’t catch up, so I have to follow behind!"
Everyone looked at Shen Mianmian and she didn’t seem to be harboring any resentment. With her bright, round eyes, she gave off a very comfortable and sensible impression, which made them trust her even more.
