Quick Transmigration: She's a Heartbreaker: Ch 75, Living Together With a Pampered Girlfriend Jiang Xun was stunned, then slowly nodded, "I know him, he was in the class next to mine before." How can she not know him? Wasn't he the original owner's ex-boyfriend? This is simply too coincidental. Jiang Xun couldn't help feeling it was funny. "I see." Gu Qiao smiled and caught a glimpse of the exercise books and test papers in the bag in Jiang Xun's hand. "His grades are pretty good. If you can't keep up with your studies, you can let him tutor you. " Jiang Xun nodded, "En, okay." At the gate of the community, Gu Qiao gave her a business card and told her to call him if she ran into any trouble. Jiang Xun put the business card away and then got out of the car. She only turned around and entered the community once she watched Gu Qiao drive away. At the small restaurant, Jiang Jing ordered two dishes, one Braised Pork Ribs and one Boiled Spicy Pork Slices. As soon as the dishes came, Jiang Xun also arrived. Jiang Jing had been staring at the door. Seeing Jiang Xun, he beckoned to her, "Sister, over here." Jiang Xun saw him and walked towards him. At this time, her phone rang. The reminder said "Aunt". After Jiang Xun answered the call, she immediately pressed mute and then silenced the ringtone before putting it away. "Sister, why did you only come now? I was starving." "If you’re hungry, eat some more." Jiang Xun grabbed a piece of ribs for him. "Not bad on ordering the dishes, both the two dishes are all meat." "Heh heh, that’s because we seldomly head out to eat." Jiang Xun smiled, "In the future, Sister will take you out to eat delicious food more often." "Really? But you have no money." Jiang Jing said while gnawing on the ribs. "Sister might not have money, but our parents have money. It’s just all taken by our uncle and aunt, we have to find a way to get it back." Jiang Xun stated seriously. Jiang Jing pursed his lips, "How come it be so easy to get it back? When I mentioned it before, they said they used it all up for our parents’ funerals and your treatment. It’s not like we know the specifics, how much there is." "Sister will find a way, just rest assured." Jiang Xun's tone was so firm it stunned Jiang Jing. He then nodded, "Sister, then I’ll help you." "En, let's eat first." Jiang Xun smiled. By the time the two finished eating, it was already seven o'clock. When they were just about to open the door, they heard sounds of people arguing coming from inside. Jiang Xun and Jiang Jing glanced at each other. They could guess what might have happened and smiled at each other. Once Jiang Xun took out the key to open the door, the noise became clearer. "Impossible, is it possible that the money I put here can still fly by itself? Someone must have stolen it!" Aunt Huang Feng'e's voice was deafening like thunder. "Maybe you went out to play cards one day and took it then but forgot," said Jiang Hai He, the original owner’s uncle. "I saw it when I went out this morning!" Huang Feng'e's eyes shone brightly, "Someone must have taken it." "Xiao Lei and I didn’t take it." Jiang Xiao rolled her eyes, then looked at Jiang Xun and Jiang Jing. Huang Feng'e's face turned blue, Jiang Hai He couldn't have taken it, while her two children wouldn't dare to take it. Then there’s no one else in this family except the two siblings. Jiang Xiao suddenly spoke up, "What are you guys holding? Where did you guys get the money to buy books?" Jiang Xun didn't reply. Instead, she lowered her head and changed her shoes. Jiang Jing glanced at Jiang Xun and also didn't speak. Huang Feng'e approached her and said coldly, "Did you take the money I put on the Toad?" Jiang Xun didn't even raise her head, "Yeah, what's the matter?" Their aunt’s entire family widened their eyes and stared at Jiang Xun in disbelief. Huang Feng'e was livid. She asked angrily, "Where’s the money?" "I spent it." Jiang Xun replied frankly as she put on her home slippers and placed her casual shoes in the shoe cabinet. "What?" Huang Feng'e exclaimed, "You spent it?" Jiang Hai He hurriedly said, "Xiao Xun couldn't have spent it. Xiao Xun, quickly return your aunt's money or else she’ll get angry." Jiang Xun was still very calm, "I did spend it to buy junior high reference books for Xiao Jing." Looking at Huang Feng'e's blue face from anger, Jiang Jing tugged Jiang Xun's clothes to let her stand further. "Are you crazy? That's my money. Stealing money at such a young age, who taught you to be like this!" Huang Feng'e looked at Jiang Xun in disbelief. Just as she raised her hand to slap Jiang Xun in the face, Jiang Hai He stopped her. "Xiao Xun, what's the matter with you? How can you steal money from an adult?" Jiang Hai He's tone also increased. "I didn't steal it. It was put there and I just took it. Did anyone say I couldn't take it?" Jiang Xun countered calmly. "Is this something that still needs to be said? You still think you’re in the right, stealing money like that? How much did you spend? Return the rest of the money to me." Huang Feng'e was so enraged that she almost vomited blood. Jiang Xun took out the remaining change from her pocket and took a look, "There’s still a little more than one hundred left." Huang Feng'e was about to swear at her when she saw Jiang Xun put the money in her pocket again. "Just deduct these few hundred dollars from my money." Huang Feng'e and Jiang Hai He were both stunned. Huang Feng'e said, "What do you mean your money? When did you have money with me?" "My parents’ money ah, isn’t there hundreds of thousands of money? Just deduct those few hundred." Jiang Xun peered at them. "What!?" Huang Feng'e was shocked. Jiang Hai He frowned. He looked at Jiang Xun suspiciously, "Xiao Xun, where did you hear this from? What hundreds of thousands?" Jiang Xun arched her eyebrows, "Isn’t there? I ran into my parents' friends today. He told me that my parents had saved a lot of money for me and Xiao Jing. Plus, after the car accident, the amount of money the perpetrator and insurance paid should total up to at least a hundred or two hundred thousand yuans. " Since Jiang Xun was spot on about this, Huang Feng'e showed panic when she heard it. "What nonsense are you talking about? Your parents only left tens of thousands of dollars, and it was all almost all spent up arranging the funeral affairs. The money given by relatives and friends was also used to treat you. Your uncle and I even had to pay quite from our own pockets. Everything you and your brother eat and drink is all ours.” Huang Feng'e finished speaking in one breath without thinking about it. Obviously these words have been said many times, not only to Jiang Xun and them, but also to outsiders. Jiang Xun smiled, "Really?" "Of-of course, it is true, your aunt is right." Jiang Hai He was also a little nervous. Jiang Xiao glared at Jiang Xun, "You stole my family’s money. Are you ashamed to say these things? If it weren't for my parents, you and your brother would be starving to death, you white-eyed wolf." "Xiao Xiao, don't talk nonsense, Xiao Xun must have misunderstood, listening to other people's nonsense." "Hmph, Xiao Xiao is right. Jiang Hai He, your niece is simply too unconscionable. It’s fine that she’s not repaying us, yet she still dares to steal money from us." Huang Feng'e blinked with a guilty conscience, but her tone was very resolute. "Then fine, I’ll be an adult in a few days and I should be repaying you guys. Aunt, give me the bank card that my parents left. I’ll go to the bank and print out the details to see how much money my parents have left. Then you guys can calculate with me again and see how much money you spent on my brother and I. Subtracting the money our parents left us, I’ll give you guys IOUs of however much we owe you. After that, we’ll slowly pay you back." Jiang Xun stated with a serious expression. Huang Feng'e and Jiang Hai He were dumbfounded. They opened their mouths for a long while without speaking. Huang Feng'e gulped and said with a guilty conscience, "There’s no need to be that troublesome? The money in the card has long been gone." "Even if the money in the card is already gone, there’s still a breakdown of the expenses this year as well as a record of how much savings my parents had before they died." Jiang Xun reasoned. "Xiao Xun, what you said is inappropriate. I promised your parents to take care of you. We don’t need you to pay us back. Don't listen to your aunt's words, she only said it out of anger." Jiang Hai He said sternly and threw glances at Huang Feng'e. Huang Feng'e quickly reacted. She laughed dryly, "I was only too angry, don’t listen to me. There’s no need to pay back between us, relatives." "Oh." Jiang Xun nodded, "Well, then, Aunt, you won't think we’re eating and drinking yours for nothing, right?" "Of course not." How could Huang Feng'e dare to say yes? She smiled reluctantly, both madden and resentful. Jiang Xun smiled sweetly, "That's good, then Aunt won't say we have no conscience anymore either, right? Every time I hear it, I feel so sad and bad about myself." "She won't say it anymore. Your aunt is a knife-mouthed tofu heart. In reality, she doesn't mean that. Don't worry about it." Jiang Hai He smiled awkwardly. He assuredly held Huang Feng'e's hand and looked at Jiang Xun kindly, “Since you guys came back this ate, have you guys eaten yet? Would you like us to warm up a meal for you guys?" Jiang Xun glanced at the leftovers on the dining table. There was only soup left in a bowl of Luffa Meat Soup, only peppers in the Sautéed Pork and Chili and a bowl of Stir-Fried Tomatoes and Scrambled Eggs. Just looking at them made people have no appetite. Jiang Xun sneered in her heart, they didn't plan on saving them any food at all. They must have left them, waiting for her to come back to wash the dishes. She said lukewarmly, "No need, I've eaten with Xiao Jing outside." "No wonder you guys came back this late. Who knows what delicious food you guys bought with that money?" Jiang Xiao piped up. Huang Feng'e wanted to scold Jiang Xun for taking her money to eat out, but Jiang Hai He stopped her with his eyes. "You guys already ate ah, then why don’t you head back to your rooms and rest?" Jiang Hai He suggested. Huang Feng'e gave Jiang Hai He an eye roll, but said nothing. Jiang Xun glanced at Jiang Jing, "Xiao Jing, let’s go back to our rooms and read." "En." Jiang Jing was very happy to see his sister's complete victory and blinked excitedly at Jiang Xun. "You can’t, you guys ate my yogurt, you still haven't compensated me for it yet!" Jiang Lei shouted capriciously, "Mom, they took the yogurt you bought me from the refrigerator this morning. I didn't let them drink it, but they still did." Huang Feng'e couldn't help it anymore, "How could you two even dare to eat your brother’s things?" __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Notes: white-eyed wolf (白眼狼): an ungrateful person who will backstab the person who helped them
