Chapter 7

"Hey, Soo Yeon, what's going on with him? Why is he in your house?" Hwang Mi-Young secretly pulled on Jeong Soo Yeon's arm and whispered in her ear.

"It's a long story." Jeong Soo Yeon wore a pained expression. "Come on, let's go to my room first."

After pulling a few girls into the room, Jeong Soo Yeon immediately became furious and began to bitterly recount her tragic story, adding many details as she wept and wailed. She described Xia Hou Zhong Ying as extremely vulgar and shameless, as well as perverted and cunning, pretending to be pitiful to gain the sympathy of her family, which led to him becoming her mother's godson. Even Xia Hou Zhong Ying's irresponsible father, Xia Hou Shang, was portrayed as a despicable uncle who, to save money, shamelessly sent his son to live in her house for free, using gifts and toys to lure her naive sister and kind parents. She almost described the Xia Hou father and son as the most evil demon kings in history.

"Hey, wow, ah... Sister Soo Yeon..." The girl named Yoon Ah suddenly shouted, rushing to Jeong Soo Yeon's bed, quickly picking up the bag on the bed, and after a few careful looks, she hugged the bag tightly, her eyes shining as she asked, "Gucci? Is it genuine? It's even the new model from this year."

The other girls, hearing Yoon Ah's words, also had their eyes light up and rushed over to grab the bag from Yoon Ah's arms, saying, "Let me see."

After the girls took a look, they were amazed and envied Jeong Soo Yeon.

"Sister Soo Yeon, when did you have the money to buy this bag?" Yoon Ah asked, her eyes still fixed on the bag.

"Well, this... it's a gift from... that person's father." Jeong Soo Yeon felt her face flush. This was one of the gifts Xia Hou Shang had sent yesterday, and she had immediately fallen in love with it, even fighting with her sister to get it.

The girls' faces immediately turned strange.

"Sister Soo Yeon, is that person really staying at your house to save money?" Yoon Ah asked with a doubtful look. How could someone who could give a Gucci bag care about such expenses? She sighed and said regretfully, "I wish I had a demon king staying at my house for free. Why didn't I get such a good deal?"

"Yoon Ah, if you don't shut up, you'll die." Jeong Soo Yeon, embarrassed and angry, snatched the bag from Yoon Ah's hands and jumped to put it in the closet, then locked it.

"Hey, Sister Soo Yeon, let me see it again."

"What's there to see? It's just a bag."

"Lend it to me for a few days, Sister Soo Yeon."

"No way."

"Don't be so stingy. Just three days, or even two..."

"..."

The girls made a fuss in Jeong Soo Yeon's room for a while before finally leaving. As soon as they reached the living room, they saw Xia Hou Zhong Ying sitting in front of the computer, playing CS with earphones on, which was why they couldn't hear the gunshots.

Because her lie had been exposed in the room, Jeong Soo Yeon had lost face in front of her friends. She didn't care if she benefited from it; her hatred for Xia Hou Zhong Ying only grew deeper. Seeing him secretly playing the computer again, she jumped over and turned off the power.

The screen suddenly went black, startling Xia Hou Zhong Ying, who was enjoying the game. Turning to see Jeong Soo Yeon glaring at him, he felt extremely frustrated. "Hey, Jeong Soo Yeon, do you have to be so stingy? Really."

"So what if I am?" Jeong Soo Yeon smirked. "What are you going to do about it?"

Xia Hou Zhong Ying was speechless. Jeong Soo Yeon was openly admitting to being stingy, but it made her even more powerful, leaving him no room to argue.

"If you don't want to play, fine. I've never seen such a stingy woman." Xia Hou Zhong Ying got up, limping towards the sofa, muttering to himself.

"What did you say?" Because Xia Hou Zhong Ying's muttering was too soft, Jeong Soo Yeon couldn't hear clearly, but she guessed it wasn't anything good, so she asked angrily.

"Nothing, I just said the moon is full tonight, and I'm going to count the moons." Xia Hou Zhong Ying said loudly.

Jeong Soo Yeon's friends burst out laughing. It was daytime, and there was no moon to count, which was too funny.

Jeong Soo Yeon was so angry she could grind her teeth. She knew Xia Hou Zhong Ying was teasing her, but she couldn't do anything about it.

At this moment, Jeong Soo Kyung came out of her room, ignoring the people in the living room, and went straight to the computer to turn it on.

"Jeong Soo Kyung, what are you doing?" Finally, Jeong Soo Yeon had someone to vent her anger on and immediately shifted her target.

"Turning on the computer." Jeong Soo Kyung looked at her with a "you're so stupid" expression. "Can't you see that?"

"I won't let you. Go do your homework."

"I've already finished, sister."

"Even if you've finished, you can't play. Kids shouldn't spend too much time on the computer."

"Sister, you're being too controlling." Jeong Soo Kyung was furious.

"I'm your sister, so I have to control you." Jeong Soo Yeon looked at her with a "what are you going to do about it" expression. "Do you want to lose your allowance?"

Jeong Soo Yeon's friends groaned. "Here we go again. Can't you try something new? You always use the same trick, and I feel sorry for Jeong Soo Kyung."

At this moment, the doorbell rang.

"Go open the door." Jeong Soo Yeon pointed at Jeong Soo Kyung.

Jeong Soo Kyung pouted but had no choice but to go to the door.

"Hey, Uncle Mover, are you here to deliver more gifts? Come in, come in, put the things here." As soon as Jeong Soo Kyung opened the door, she saw Xia Hou Shang's driver, who was carrying a large bag, and she was overjoyed, her eyes forming a crescent moon.

The driver felt a mix of amusement and exasperation. This little girl was really not shy.

"Is your brother Zhong Ying here? I brought his things." The driver smiled and nodded at Jeong Soo Kyung.

"Are they your brother's things?" Jeong Soo Kyung asked regretfully, her mood dropping. "He's here. Brother, someone's looking for you. It's the Uncle Mover from last night."

Jeong Soo Kyung's words made everyone in the room speechless, and the driver almost fell over.

"Uncle Jin, you're here. Did you bring everything?" Xia Hou Zhong Ying, sitting on the sofa, poked his head out to look at the door.

"Hehe, everything's here." Uncle Jin smiled and brought the things into the room.

"By the way, Uncle Jin, did my dad say anything?" Xia Hou Zhong Ying asked while looking through his things.

"The CEO said he'll be back in half a month and told you to stay here for now. He's already talked to Mr. Jeong." Uncle Jin replied.

"No way." Hearing this, Xia Hou Zhong Ying was furious. He and Jeong Soo Yeon were naturally at odds, and they had almost come to blows in just one day. Staying for so long would likely drive him to a mental breakdown.

"I'm going to call my dad." Xia Hou Zhong Ying angrily took out his phone to call his irresponsible father.

"The CEO is already on the plane." Uncle Jin smiled, secretly amused by the relationship between Xia Hou Zhong Ying and his father, who was so irresponsible as to leave his son with people he had only known for two days.

Seeing Xia Hou Zhong Ying pause for two seconds and then throw his phone on the sofa, Uncle Jin smiled and took out a card and two bundles of cash from his bag, placing them on the table in front of Xia Hou Zhong Ying. "This is your credit card and two million in cash. The CEO said this should be enough for you for half a month."

After the driver left, Jeong Soo Kyung, who had been a bit down, immediately ran to the sofa, hugged Xia Hou Zhong Ying's arm, and leaned against him, calling sweetly, "Brother..."

Jeong Soo Kyung used the Korean term "oppa," which she drew out, making the other girls shiver.

Xia Hou Zhong Ying, feeling down, responded weakly.

"Brother, am I your sister?" Jeong Soo Kyung's voice was even more sweet.

"Of course." Xia Hou Zhong Ying was puzzled and looked at Jeong Soo Kyung.

"Then if my sister has a problem, shouldn't the brother help?" Jeong Soo Kyung looked at Xia Hou Zhong Ying with bright, unblinking eyes.

"Of course." Xia Hou Zhong Ying was still angry about his father's irresponsibility and didn't notice the hidden meaning in Jeong Soo Kyung's words.

Jeong Soo Yeon was fuming, realizing her sister's intentions.

"Right, that's how it should be." Jeong Soo Kyung nodded fiercely. "Brother, my things are your things, and your things are my things. That's what siblings are, right, brother?"

Xia Hou Zhong Ying felt something was off, hesitated for two seconds, but was defeated by Jeong Soo Kyung's big, watery eyes and responded uncertainly, "I guess so..."

His tone was full of caution, as he had been scared by the mischievous Jeong Soo Kyung the day before.

Jeong Soo Kyung was overjoyed, slapped Xia Hou Zhong Ying's shoulder, and said happily, "I knew you were a good brother. Since you agreed, your allowance is my allowance too. We'll split it fifty-fifty."

Saying this, she quickly took one of the bundles of cash from the table, beaming with joy. Now she wouldn't have to worry about being threatened by her sister. One million in cash was her allowance for half a year.

"Ah?" Xia Hou Zhong Ying's eyes bulged, stunned. Could this really happen?

"Jeong Soo Kyung, put it back." Jeong Soo Yeon was furious to see her sister do this in front of her friends, feeling utterly embarrassed. How could she have such a shameless sister?

"No way, it's mine." Jeong Soo Kyung stuck out her tongue at Jeong Soo Yeon and ran to her room.

Jeong Soo Yeon, seeing this, was enraged and followed her.

Jeong Soo Kyung and Xia Hou Zhong Ying were speaking in English, and the other three girls in the room, besides Jeong Soo Yeon and Hwang Mi-Young, couldn't understand and were confused about what was happening.

Hwang Mi-Young quietly explained in Korean, leaving the other girls speechless.

"Jeong Soo Kyung, are you going to give it back?" Jeong Soo Yeon's voice could be heard faintly from Jeong Soo Kyung's room.

"No, it's mine."

"What do you need so much money for?"

"None of your business."

"If you don't give it back, I'll tell Mom and Dad."

"Sister, how can you be like this? Fine, as long as you don't tell Mom and Dad, I'll give you some."

"No."

"Let's split it 40-60, you 40, me 60."

"No."

"Fine, 50-50, okay?"

"No." Jeong Soo Yeon hesitated for two seconds, but her voice wasn't as firm.

"Sister, you can't be so greedy. At most, 60-40, you 60." Jeong Soo Kyung's voice was full of anger.

"Having so much money on you is dangerous and can attract thieves."

"Sister, you're too greedy. This is my money, and you're not satisfied with 60-40. Do you want 70-30?"

"Let me keep it for you. You can take 200,000 now, and when you need more, come to me." Jeong Soo Yeon lowered her voice, and even those outside the door couldn't hear clearly.

"Sister, why did I have to meet such a greedy sister?" Jeong Soo Kyung's voice was full of frustration.

It wasn't clear how they finally divided the money. When the two sisters came out of the room, Jeong Soo Yeon looked calm, while Jeong Soo Kyung was pouting and unwilling to look at her sister, running to the sofa and burying herself in it, kicking her feet in frustration.
