✔The Villain And The Cannon Fodder's Mother (Book 1)

(95) Why Are There So Many Fools With Money In This World?

Some nouveau riche showed up in her streaming channel and gifted her tens of thousands of dollars. Lin Yiyi mentioned that over the dinner table.

Even now, she felt like she was in a dream.

She never thought that making money could be so easy (That’s not true okay!)….

If she got a nouveau riche like that once a month, even without the original owner’s family background, she would still become a wealthy woman in the future?

Lin Yiyi lamented, “This is truly the era of the nouveau riches.”

Ms. Lin Ping, on the other hand, didn’t care for an amount like that…

It wasn’t even enough to buy a purse!

That being said, finding out that all Lin Yiyi needed to do was to cook a dish and say a few words for the fools out there to dole out tens of thousands yuan to her, even Ms. Lin Ping felt that it was impressive to make money like this.

Ms. Lin Ping finally nodded in agreement. 

Meng Yuran, also sitting at the dinner table, tightened his grip on the chopsticks. He was inside the streaming channel earlier as well. He was there when that “I Hate Expressionless Faces” gifted all the airplanes.

That Lu guy, he knew he had ulterior motives! See that? His cunning tail is beginning to show.

He listened carefully and heard Lin Yiyi carried on, “There was another one with the alias ‘Tyrant’. He, too, had sent tens of thousands yuan of gifts.”

“Exactly what I just said. Why are there so many fools with money in this world?” sighed Ms. Lin Ping.

Meng Yuran, the fool with money, “……”

He didn’t enjoy much the rest of the dinner.

-----------------------

Inside the Lin’s mansion, the family was having a cozy meal together. On the other side, inside the mansion by the seaside, Meng Yan, who had just accepted and was preparing to start his new role saw that Zhang Xiying had already finished hers and just returned with a suitcase and a little girl by her side.

The girl was fragile and skinny. Her face was delicate and somewhat resembled Zhang Xiying’s.

When she said Meng Yan, she addressed him as “brother-in-law” courteously.

Zhang Xiying looked for a pair of slippers for her. Smiling at Meng Yan, she said, “It’s summer vacation for my sister. I didn’t want her to stay home by herself, so I thought she can stay with me here at City Nan for a little bit.”

The girl was Zhang Xiying’s little sister, Zhang Xiruo. Meng Yan had met her a few times in the past.

Having heard that, he nodded his acknowledgement at her. 

There were six bedrooms inside the mansion. Most of the time, even the two of them barely ran into each other, and there were so many extra rooms that weren’t utilized anyway; it was just that….

“You have time to take care of her?”

Meng Yan knew how busy Zhang Xiying usually was, which prompted his question.

She was too busy to even have children of her own; how’d she have the time to take care of her little sister?

“I have already touched base with Aunty Fu and have her stay over at our place for the time being. She will be able to look after Ruoruo for me.”

Aunty Fu was the nanny aunty who has been cleaning and taking care of the mansion for them.

Meng Yan didn’t care about it either way.

He was sitting on the couch with a cup of tea in his hand. Seeing how the little girl was standing shyly behind Zhang Xiying and looking very intimidated in the strange environment, he waved at her and called her over.

“How old are you, Ruoruo?”

The only impression that Zhang Xiruo had over her brother-in-law was the handsome and dazzling star on television.

She never had a lot of opportunities to be around him, so there was some distance between them in her mind.

She took a few steps forward and also sat down on the couch, but she left at least two-people’s distance between the two of them. 

“I am 7 years old already.” 

Having said that, for some unknown reason, she flattered him, “Brother-in-law, you look even more handsome in person than on TV.”

The kid was certainly good with her words.

Meng Yan smiled at her.
