Chapter 7: Asking for Money

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Kong Rong knew what Kong Zhao was looking for, but she didn’t give her what she wanted. “I’m just concerned about you. Does my brother-in-law have a proper career now? Can he support you? If he really can’t find a job, I can recommend him a few good jobs, such as moving bricks at the construction site or carrying goods at the harbor. He’s very compatible with you, right?”

Kong Zhao suddenly looked up at her.

Kong Zhao took a deep breath and stared at Kong Rong. She said clearly, “You don’t have to worry about that. After all, he’s a descendant of the Cheng family. You can’t insult him like this. Even if he really wants to find a job, he won’t beg you. Leave the good jobs you mentioned to your future husband.”

Kong Rong’s expression changed. “Kong Zhao, what do you mean? I’m doing this for your own good. What kind of attitude is this?”

“What’s wrong?” Kong Zhao said calmly, “Isn’t moving bricks at the construction site and carrying goods at the harbor all good jobs? You say you’re helping us by letting Cheng Fang do these, so is there a problem with me letting you leave it to your future husband?”

Kong Rong was furious. She wanted to insult Kong Zhao, but she didn’t expect her to retort instead.

However, in the next moment, she seemed to have thought of something and suppressed the anger in her heart. Instead, there was a hint of smugness in her eyes. “Forget it, I won’t argue with you anymore. I know what you came back for today, but Dad and Mom aren’t at home. You came for nothing!”

“What did you say?” Kong Zhao’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately had a bad premonition.

“I said, Dad and Mom aren’t home! Do you want Dad and Mom to set up two tables for you to celebrate?” Kong Rong smiled smugly and stood up to go upstairs.

“I don’t need any celebration!” Kong Zhao suddenly stood up and stood in front of Kong Rong. “I want the money Sheng Rou promised to give my mother!”

“Money?” Kong Rong raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a vicious smile. “What money? I’ve never heard them mention it!”

Kong Zhao was stunned, and her heart raced.

At that moment, all the grievance, unwillingness, and hatred surged in her heart.

She knew that she was an orphan who had been adopted by the Kong family, but her background wasn’t something she could choose. All these years, even in the darkest of times, she had tried her best to improve her life.

But she only wanted to save Mrs. Li now. Why did they have to deprive her of this bit of hope?!

Kong Zhao was indignant and grabbed Kong Rong’s arm. “Don’t go. Make yourself clear!”

“What do you mean?” Kong Rong pushed her hard.

Kong Zhao lost her balance and retreated repeatedly. The back of her head slammed into the wall, and her ears buzzed.

Kong Rong patted her hand. Seeing Kong Zhao’s pained expression, she felt extremely happy. “Kong Zhao, you’re already married to Cheng Fang and are now a member of the Cheng family. Don’t think about having anything to do with the Kong family in the future. If you want money, go to the Cheng family, if you can get it.”

“Sheng Rou promised me herself!” Kong Zhao gritted her teeth. “She said that as long as I marry into the family on your behalf, she would give me a sum of money to treat Mrs. Li. That’s a life! You guys…”

“Let Mrs. Li stay in a good ward and use imported medicine?” Kong Rong laughed loudly. “Who can prove it? Do you know why Mother didn’t sign a written agreement with you and only made a verbal promise?”

Kong Zhao didn’t say anything. A chill ran down her spine.

Kong Rong sneered and deliberately flipped her hair back to reveal her new diamond necklace.

“How is it? Is it beautiful?” She looked at Kong Zhao provocatively. “I just bought this necklace. It’s really expensive. It’s 300,000 yuan!”

Kong Zhao was stunned.

Kong Rong said word by word fiercely, “I bought it with the money you wanted to treat Mrs. Li with!”

“To tell you the truth, Dad and Mom never thought of giving you any money. I’m already being merciful by letting you be my substitute and marry into the Cheng family! Otherwise, how could an orphan like you be worthy of marrying into the Cheng family? Don’t be so shameless!” Kong Rong said arrogantly.

Kong Zhao bit her lips and trembled with anger, but there wasn’thing she could do.

She looked at Kong Rong’s smug smile as she was chased out by the servant.

The sky was gray and there was a damp smell in the air, as if it was an omen of heavy rain. In order to avoid being drenched, Kong Zhao could only speed up and walk towards the bus stop.

At the corner of the street, Cui Peng reported to Cheng Fang excitedly, “Boss, Miss Kong is out.”

“Huh?” Cheng Fang took off his sunglasses and threw them aside. “How is she?”

Cheng Fang didn’t know why he was following Kong Rong. By the time he reacted, he was already there.

Was he possessed by this woman? Cheng Fang frowned and thought.
