Chapter 120: 065: The Sober Grandma Lu, a Real Ungrateful Wretch!_1

Although Shen Lijun seemed to emphasize that the photo she shared in her moments was the original unedited image,

Loo Xiyue didn’t believe it.

As a mother, she knew her daughter all too well.

Shen Lijun was stubborn and fixated. Once she set her mind on something, not even ten oxen could pull her back.

So, she was covering for Lin Wu.

Shen Lijun had no idea how to explain it to her mother, so she just dug out the photo from her phone and handed it over, "Mom, see for yourself whether it’s the original."

Loo Xiyue smiled and said, "The real original? You must have deleted that long ago, right?"

According to her understanding of her daughter, Shen Lijun was definitely capable of doing such a thing.

Shen Lijun: "..."

After a moment, Shen Lijun looked toward her mother, "Mom, am I really that daft? To watch a good friend edit the photo and only retouch herself, would I then share it in my moments?"

She wasn’t stupid.

She could tell right from wrong.

Moreover, whether it was taking group photos or posting on social media, it was her idea. What did it have to do with Lin Wu?

Loo Xiyue sized up her daughter and then asked, "Is this the dress you wore out today?"

"Yes."

Loo Xiyue narrowed her eyes.

The dress was very ordinary, with no conspicuous logo, and the fabric was also nothing special.

After a moment, Loo Xiyue continued to press, "Did you carry that Hermès handbag of yours?"

Shen Lijun had a white handbag she was very fond of.

Worth around a hundred thousand or so.

She always carried it with her wherever she went.

It must have been that bag that tipped Lin Wu off.

"No, I didn’t," Shen Lijun said helplessly, "Mom, can you not think so badly of Xiao Wu?"

Loo Xiyue shrugged her shoulders, "Fine, even if she doesn’t know your true identity, just the fact that she edits the photo to retouch only herself shows she’s not a good person."

Shen Lijun: "... Okay then!"

It had come full circle, and they were back to square one.

Forget it, forget it.

She didn’t want to explain anymore.

Shen Lijun then said, "By the way, Mom, give me some money."

Money?

Loo Xiyue instantly became alert.

Shen Lijun never asked her for money directly. She had only known Lin Wu for such a short time and already she was asking for money!

It seemed that this Lin Wu really wasn’t a good kid.

"What do you need money for?"

Shen Lijun said, "I want to buy an apartment."

"An apartment?" Loo Xiyue just looked at her daughter and said, "We have so many apartments in our family. Just pick whichever one you like!"

After all, all these properties would belong to Shen Lijun eventually.

Sooner or later, they’d be given to her.

"I want to buy one on Wutong Road. Oh, Mom, don’t worry about it so much! Just give me the money."

"How much?" Loo Xiyue asked.

After the chauffeur gave her the idea, Shen Lijun had specifically looked up the property prices on Wutong Road online.

"1.8 million."

She had to get at least a two-bedroom.

Loo Xiyue didn’t care about this small amount of money, but she was afraid that her daughter would be deceived, so she narrowed her eyes and said, "I’ll think about it."

"Mom..." Shen Lijun began to act like a spoiled child, tugging on Loo Xiyue’s sleeve.

Shen Zhiqiang came downstairs from the second floor.

Seeing Shen Lijun this way, he asked out of curiosity, "What’s going on, my precious daughter?"

"I’m asking my mom to agree to something."

"What is it? Can’t you ask your dad? I’ll agree," Shen Zhiqiang said with a smile.

Shen Lijun glanced at him, "Never mind that, Dad. You can’t make a decision on this matter."

"What can’t your father decide? Go ahead and tell me, and your father will surely agree."

Shen Zhiqiang was utterly indulgent with his daughter.

He was always ready to meet her requests.

Was the father really calling the shots at home now?

Thinking this, a gleam of hope appeared in Shen Lijun’s eyes as she looked at Shen Zhiqiang, "Really?"

"Of course!" Shen Zhiqiang said with confidence.

Shen Lijun immediately ran to Shen Zhiqiang and held out her hands, "Dad, I need 180—"

1.8 million?

Upon hearing this number, Shen Zhiqiang swallowed hard. If it had been a few tens of thousands, he could have decided.

But over a million...

He was powerless.

Shen Zhiqiang, slightly embarrassed, touched his balding head, "Well, darling, Dad’s financial situation is a bit tight right now. You should go ask your mom!"

Shen Lijun: "..."

At that, Shen Zhiqiang turned to his wife, "Yue Yue, it’s just 1.8 million. Just give it to the kid!"

He couldn’t stand to see his baby girl upset over a mere 1.8 million.

Shen Zhiqiang was a man with a bald head and a beer belly, standing at six feet tall and weighing two hundred pounds. Though not very handsome, and even somewhat intimidating, he loved his wife and doted greatly on his daughter.

In earlier years when they didn’t have much money, it was Loo Xiyue who called the shots at home.

Now that they had money, it was still Loo Xiyue who was in charge!

The adage that men become unfaithful as soon as they have money didn’t apply to him.
