After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage

Chapter 784: I’m Not Going to Ask, Let It Bother You

Wen Yanqing adored Lin Gantang so much that he practically wanted to cherish her in the palm of his hand, but he didn’t hand over his salary after they got married? Lin Zhaonan didn’t buy it for a second.

Facing the skepticism, Wen Yanqing responded with utter calm, “Tangtang and Tongtong are different. Tangtang doesn’t derive her sense of security in marriage from controlling the household finances, so even if I gave her all my bank cards, she wouldn’t care too much; it’s not strange to find money in my wallet.”

Lin Zhaonan never doubted this. After all, it was a matter of how one was raised.

“Besides, when can you ever entirely hand over money? Isn’t it the case that you can earn new money in the blink of an eye?” Wen Yanqing laughed, “Starting with six-six-six as the original capital, it’s your fault if you can’t multiply it by dozens of times each month when it gets to your hands, right? What does that have to do with your sister-in-law, right?”

Lin Zhaonan: Damn, why do I find what you say so annoying?

“How come when you talk about making money, it sounds as easy as picking radishes and cabbages from the ground?” Lin Zhaonan’s mouth twitched.

“It is indeed very easy,” Wen Yanqing said with an even tone, “The hardest part was pursuing my wife. What’s so difficult about making money?”

“…” That’s just excessive.

Lin Zhaonan asked him, “Just now Gantang was helping me speak up, what’s going on now? Are you mocking your elder nephew-in-law?”

“It was you brother who said I was broke; don’t I get to clear things up with you?” Wen Yanqing smiled, eyes crinkling.

Lin Zhaonan couldn’t find any flaw in his expression and felt that his confidence in speaking likely meant he wasn’t short on money.

“Do you want it or not? I can give it to you right now,” Wen Yanqing tempted.

“When did I say I was broke? Tongtong is reasonable. If I need money, I just ask her and it’s not like I can’t get it.” Lin Zhaonan didn’t feel that there was anything shameful about his wife managing the money and his wallet being empty.

What could you prove with that, other than mutual trust and a stable relationship? All it showed was his love and appreciation for his wife. Anyway, Lin Zhaonan thought it didn’t matter, saying, “Yanqing, you’ve learned some bad habits—making small requests? I refuse to listen and refuse to ask; I’ll suffocate you with my silence.”

Wen Yanqing expressed regret, “Brother, you think too badly of me. What demands could I make? Maybe just ask you to peel an apple for me and I’ll give you a hundred thousand?”

Lin Zhaonan firmly disbelieved, “If you were willing to make a loss, Shengfang would have been gone long ago.”

“How can that be the same, you’re my family. It doesn’t matter if I lose a little,” Wen Yanqing smiled.

That smile of yours… the more I look at it, the more fishy it seems, Lin Zhaonan steadied himself and jokingly said, “Then give me the hundred thousand first, we can talk about the request later. Family should trust each other, right?”

Before Wen Yanqing could even open his mouth, Lin Zhaonan felt the back of his head getting poked.

Turning around, there stood Lin Gantang, who appeared behind him at some point.

Lin Gantang withdrew her hand and scrutinized him, “Brother, your words sound a bit like a scammer’s. Are you trying to trick me out of a hundred thousand?”

Lin Zhaonan felt uncomfortable under her suspicious gaze, “What scam? Have I tricked you? I’m asking Yanqing for it.”

Lin Gantang placed another freshly baked batch of cookies down, “Yanqing’s belongings are mine, including himself.”

Lin Zhaonan: “…” You’re so bold and assertive.

Lin Gantang carefully placed the cookies into Wen Yanqing’s palm, telling him to eat as he pleased.

Lin Zhaonan envied the sight to no end.

Before he could enjoy his sister’s newfound kindness, she got married off. Tsk! Wen Yanqing got a bargain.

So that evening, Lin Zhaonan watched Wen Yanqing eat two bowls of rice, causing Lin Gantang’s sense of caution to spike.

Why did it feel to her like her brother wanted to devour Yanqing along with his meal? Previously, he had been glad that Wen Yanqing married her, and they got along harmoniously. What’s going on now?
