Chapter 139: The Scummy Brother (End)
About the Prize Money —
Lin Shixing won first place, with cheers from the audience and a prize of 100,000 yuan.
This was perhaps the most glorious moment she had ever experienced in her memory.
The prize money arrived quickly, and after the excitement wore off, Lin Shixing immediately remembered that her parents would likely demand that she turn over the money, as they had done in the past.
She felt a slight sense of caution in her heart.
To her surprise, her parents never mentioned the money.
Since they didn’t bring it up, Lin Shixing didn't ask either.
It wasn’t until over a decade later when the family had all changed significantly, and Lin Shixing had become independent and successful, that her parents mentioned the money while taking a walk and chatting in their garden.
“Your brother said you were going to use it to start a business, and we didn’t understand anything back then. We were brought to this big city by him and saw how many people were nice to him along the way, so we didn’t say anything.”
