Chapter 648 - 647: Whoever Has the Money, Targets Them
After washing up at night, Shen Mingzhu returned to the bedroom and rummaged through all the family’s passbooks, bank cards, and large fixed deposits.
Not long afterward, Pei Yang finished his shower and entered the bedroom to see her tallying the family’s savings. He couldn’t resist teasing her, "What are you doing? You’re not thinking of absconding with the money, are you?"
As he spoke, he walked up behind her, wrapped his arms around her, "Just make sure to take me with you. It’s fine if we lose the kids, but you can’t lose me."
Shen Mingzhu gave him a glare, "Sit down, I have something to tell you."
Pei Yang, sticky like a piece of cowhide candy, insisted on sticking close to her, "Go ahead, I can hear you."
After receiving a glare from Shen Mingzhu, he finally sat down across from her with a cheeky grin, "Alright, go ahead."
Shen Mingzhu briefly explained Zhao Dafa’s foray into the real estate business.
Although she hadn’t verbally agreed to Shen Hongmei’s financing proposal, she was evidently entertaining the idea, or she wouldn’t have wanted to check the family’s savings.
Pei Yang was curious, "You forgave Hongmei?"
"Although she brought it up, my decision has nothing to do with her. On one hand, I trust Zhao Brother’s character and capabilities, and on the other, we have a deep relationship with Zhao Brother. He has helped our family a lot in the past. Now that he’s in trouble, morally and emotionally, we should give him a hand."
