Chapter 416 Uncle Shen’s Understanding Is Enough
Zhou Lanfang grew more and more angry, and prodded Shen Jianhua again, "Aren’t you going to say something?"
With He Nan refusing to give money, shouldn’t Shen Jianhua, as a man, step in at times like this?
"What am I supposed to say?" Shen Jianhua glanced at He Nan, then sternly told Zhou Lanfang not to make unreasonable demands. "The money is with him because Mianmian entrusted it to him, he really shouldn’t give it to us without Mianmian’s permission. Don’t harass He Nan for the money; you’re making it awkward for him."
Shen Jianhua felt that by saying this, he appeared more enlightened instead of being afraid of He Nan.
"I appreciate your understanding, Uncle Shen." He Nan glanced at his watch, "I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."
After speaking, he turned and left without the slightest hesitation.
Zhou Lanfang wanted to stop him but didn’t dare to, stamping her feet in frustration. "Shen Jianhua, you act all tough in front of me, threatening and yelling, but why do you have no guts in front of He Nan? Just watching him take the money away like that? That’s a lot of money, aren’t you planning to claim it back?"
Over a thousand dollars! Just the thought of possibly not getting it back made her chest feel oppressively tight, and breathing became difficult.
"Who do you think he is? You think he’ll get scared and hand over the money if you make a scene?" Shen Jianhua glared at Zhou Lanfang, scolding her for being brainless. "The money is with him because Mianmian asked him to keep it. We’ll just wait here. When she’s done with her exams, she can ask for it back."
"Didn’t you hear her? That damned girl is already talking about breaking ties with us," Zhou Lanfang said, breathless with anger. "If I had known she was such a curse, I would have never agreed to take care of her in the first place. If we don’t discipline her properly, she’ll be the death of us eventually."
