You didn’t accept my confession, why are you crying because I changed my mind? Chapter 161
Chapter 161: What My Brother Gave , No One Else Can Have
Han Rou gazed at Jiang Zhou, her face full of grievance. She was actually a very strong girl. In the past, she had endured even more vicious treatnt without crying.
But now, she had a brother, soone to protect her. So her emotions always tended to run wild.
She didn’t cry before because no one would care. She didn’t cry now because she was afraid of worrying her brother. But that’s just how young girls are.
If you don’t ask, they won’t feel too wronged. But once you ask, even if they’re not wronged, they’ll feel incredibly wronged.
“Why are they asking you for money?”
“On the 18th of last month, one of my elentary school classmates was diagnosed with leukemia.”
Jiang Zhou wiped away her tears. “So your brother got jealous and wanted to have the sa thing?”
Han Rou was so amused by him she almost burst into laughter. “Just let finish!”
“Okay, I won’t interrupt. Go on.”
“We were pretty close when we were in school, so I donated five thousand yuan to her.”
“That’s a good thing. Since she’s a friend, it’s only right to help.”
“But my hotown is a small place, and my elentary school classmates were all neighbors in the village.”
Jiang Zhou seed to understand. “Your original family found out about you donating money?”
Han Rou nodded. “Our two families live right next door, so they found out as soon as I gave the money and imdiately called .”
“So, they’re the ones who made you cry?”
“Yes. They said Han Ziyang has liver cancer, and they called an ungrateful wretch, saying I beca rich but didn’t care about my own brother. But what kind of brother is he to ?”
“Did you give it to them?”
“No, I won’t give it to them. That’s money you gave ! I’ll save it carefully for a wedding gift when you get married!”
Jiang Zhou was amused, and he pinched her face. “Who told you to save money for my wedding gift?”
Han Rou wiped away her tears. “I’ve already thought about it. After I work for a few years, plus my savings, I’m going to give the biggest gift!”
“Ten million?”
“Ah… I won’t have that much, right?”
Jiang Zhou looked at her silly face and couldn’t help but want to rub it.
She still wanted to give the biggest wedding gift? Last ti, Aunt Feng gave a direct fifty million. If Han Rou really wanted to compete with that, she would probably be bogged down for the rest of her life.
“Why are you laughing? I’m really going to give a huge wedding gift!”
Jiang Zhou was silent for a long ti. “Since I gave you the money, it’s yours. I wouldn’t object if you gave it to them.”
Han Rou bit her lip and shook her head fiercely. “It’s what my brother gave . I won’t give a single penny to anyone else!”
“But aren’t they pressuring you?”
“Yes, and they also said… they said they were going to sue .”
“Didn’t you tell them you didn’t have any money?”
Hearing this, Han Rou beca even more upset.
Her tears began to flow uncontrollably, soaking Jiang Zhou’s collar.
“They said if I don’t give them money, they’ll marry off to get a bride price…
“They’ve never treated like family, they only bully !”
Jiang Zhou couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache, and he reached out to hold her in his arms.
Han Rou’s shoulders trembled slightly, and her tears wouldn’t stop.
“I’ve been away from ho for three years, and they haven’t even called once. They told everyone outside that I died.
“But after I donated five thousand to my classmate, I got a call from them less than half an hour later.
“They said if I didn’t give them money, they would put in the newspaper and on TV.
“Big brother, they’re so cruel. Why aren’t you my real brother?”
Jiang Zhou patted her back. “Then how much money do they want from you?”
Han Rou quickly looked up. “I can’t give them the money. The cancer is definitely fake!”
“I’m not giving it to them, I’m just asking.”
“Fifty… fifty thousand.”
Jiang Zhou thought for a while and nodded.
Fifty thousand? If soone really had cancer, what use would fifty thousand be?
Han Rou was probably right.
The cancer was fake, and the real reason was to force her to give them money.
It’s just that poverty had limited the imagination of this vampire family. Only fifty thousand? That’s a little low.
Jiang Zhou couldn’t help but start plotting.
How much should I scam them out of? Multiplying it by ten wouldn’t be too much, right?
But according to Han Rou, her family was actually very poor. It would be impossible for them to co up with half a million.
“Co here, give your phone.”
Han Rou looked up. “Why?”
Jiang Zhou wiped her tears. “I’ll let them know that you have a brother to back you up.”
“No!”
“Why not?”
Han Rou grabbed his hand. “They’re unreasonable and they’ll start yelling!”
Jiang Zhou imdiately laughed. “Is there anyone who can be more of a rascal than ?”
“Uh, well… that’s true.”
“You’ve got a smudged face, your makeup is all gone. Go wash your face quickly!”
Han Rou’s cheeks flushed. “I’m still pretty without makeup!”
Jiang Zhou was amused and imdiately gave her a thumbs-up. “Alright, worthy of being my sister. You’ve got spirit.”
“So, should I go wash my face now?”
“Yes, and don’t let Mom see you. She’s worried.”
Han Rou nodded and cautiously walked out.
At the sa ti, Jiang Zhou took Han Rou’s phone and dialed the number in her contacts. The number was saved under “Mom,” a sacred title. But the person on the other end was like a demon.
Jiang Zhou felt for his sister, so he decided not to show any rcy.
“Hello?”
“Hello, what hello! Rember my na, Jiang Zhou. This na will beco your nightmare!”
Click!
The other side suddenly hung up.
Jiang Zhou, holding the phone, was dumbfounded.
Is my reputation that scary now? Just saying my na is enough to make the other person disconnect?
The next second, the door suddenly opened.
Ms. Yuan Youqin walked out with a broom in her hand, her face full of anger.
“Co on, let your mom try and see who will be whose nightmare!”
“Oh no, you’ve got to be kidding …?”
Yuan Youqin looked at him. “Tell , butt or head?!”
Jiang Zhou quickly shrank his neck. “Mom, I called the wrong person! I called the wrong person!”
“You’re making so mad! No dinner for you tomorrow!”
“My sister betrayed !”
Jiang Zhou took a hit from the broom, feeling both amused and frustrated.
The person he called was Ms. Yuan Youqin!
Han Rou had changed the contact na.
The little brat didn’t even tell beforehand!
Damn it, good thing I didn’t say too much, or I would have been dead.
Jiang Zhou took a deep breath and opened the call history.
He saw a number with no na, but there were many calls from it throughout the day. This must be the one.
Jiang Zhou reached out and dialed the number.
—
Half an hour later, the call ended. Han Rou was standing at the door, quietly watching him.
“Co here.”
Han Rou walked over timidly. “Big brother, what did they say?”
Jiang Zhou smiled. “They won’t bother you anymore.”
“Did you promise to give them money? You can’t!”
“No, I didn’t. I’ll use other thods. Don’t be sad anymore.”
Han Rou gently wrapped her arms around his neck. “Thank you, big brother. Without you, I really don’t know what I would do.”
Jiang Zhou patted her back. “Alright, you’ve been sad all day. Go to sleep.”
“Okay, good night, big brother.”
“Good night, and rember to cover yourself with the blanket.”
Jiang Zhou walked out of Han Rou’s room and gently closed the door. Then, he turned and went back to his own room to think.
The Han family wanted money, and they were desperate for it.
Fifty thousand, not a cent less.
This amount was nothing to Jiang Zhou. But giving them the money was out of the question. This family wouldn’t get a single penny. So, Jiang Zhou was considering how much money he should scam them out of.
Multiplying it by ten wouldn’t be too much, right?
But according to Han Rou, her family was actually very poor. It would be impossible for them to co up with five hundred thousand.
Jiang Zhou opened his laptop and did a search. The Han family’s location was very close to Beihai, in a small mountain village.
The village was surrounded by mountains, and transportation was very poor. It seed a trip to Beihai was a must.
On one hand, the girl Feng Siruo clearly wanted to see him. On the other hand, Yin Shuya’s filming had also started. And he also needed to investigate the market for food delivery people. The last thing was to solve the problem with the Han family.
Ah, this winter break is destined to be a busy one.
Beep, beep, beep!
At that mont, Jiang Zhou’s QQ suddenly rang. Feng Siruo sent a ssage and a photo.
“I took a picture. I’m showing it to you.”
Jiang Zhou looked at the picture. “Mm, it’s pretty good. Where did you take it?”
Feng Siruo: “At my doorstep!”
“Go a little further next ti. You can’t have the sa scene.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Zhou lay down on his bed. “How does it feel to be ho?”
Feng Siruo sent a sun emoji. “The weather is nice.”
“I asked about how you feel.”
“Emmm… the wind isn’t strong.”
“You only give irrelevant answers, right?”
—
At the sa ti, in a huge manor in Beihai, Feng Siruo was curled up on her bed, typing out so words, “I’m unhappy.”
But after thinking about it, she deleted them. Then, she typed three more words. “I want to see you.”
But after typing them, her cheeks turned red.
No, no, no!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
She couldn’t say that.
Feng Siruo’s small hand trembled, she deleted the words, and re-typed two words.
“It’s alright.”
“Are you bored?”
“I’m not bored.”
“You’re not allowed to play QQ Speed at ho.”
Feng Siruo was startled and quickly retracted her hand from the power button.
She wasn’t playing. She didn’t want to play! She just… wanted to turn on the computer to check her final exam scores.
Yes, that’s it.

At the sa ti, Jiang Zhou found Ms. Yuan Youqin in the living room. He told her what had happened to Han Rou.
Yuan Youqin, who already felt for Han Rou, imdiately got teary-eyed.
“How could her family do that?”
“Mom, lower your voice. Aren’t you afraid my sister won’t hear you?”
Yuan Youqin was startled and quickly lowered her voice. “Then what are you going to do?”
Jiang Zhou was silent for a while. “I plan to go there in a few days myself.”
“To Beihai?”
“Yes.”
Yuan Youqin thought for a mont. “It’s a bit far, right? Can you go alone? How about your dad goes with you?”
Jiang Zhou quickly refused. “No way. I have to hit on girls!”
“Your dad will just follow you, he won’t bother you.”
“Have you ever seen soone hit on a girl in front of their dad??”
