nYun Chujiu rolled her eyes. ‘So, we’ve been beating around the bush for so long because my new grandpa is also a money-loving bastard?!’
n
n
n“Grandpa, I’m the one who came out with this idea and sealed Bai Morou’s acupuncture points. Isn’t two-tenths too little? At the very least, I should get half of the money, right?!”
n
n
n“Hmph! Why does a young lady like you need that much money?! Thirty-seventy! The most I can accept is thirty-seventy!” Yun Xiaotian glared at her.
n
n
n“Fifty-fifty. Let’s make it fifty-fifty, or else, I’m going on strike! What are you going to do then?!” Yun Chujiu put her arms akimbo while widening her eyes. ‘Grandpa, even if we’re relatives, we have to make things clear when it comes to money. It’s a matter of principle.’
n
n
nWhen Yun Xiaotian saw that Yun Chujiu was as angry as a soaked kitten, he was amused. “Young Jiu, tell me, why do you need that much money? If it’s reasonable, forget fifty-fifty, I’ll be fine with even giving you seven-tenths of the money!”
n
n
nYun Chujiu stretched out a dark hand, bent her fingers, and said, “First, I love delicious food, but the food at the restaurants are so expensive…”
n
n
nYun Xiaotian was so angry that he nearly got a stroke.
n
n
n‘Look at this girl, she’s hopeless! She only thinks about food!’
n
n
nWhen Yun Xiaotian was about to scold Yun Chujiu, Yun Chujiu gave a mischievous smile and said, “Second, I need to buy you gifts since you treated me so well, Grandpa. I want to show you my respect! You won’t like it if I give you junk, right?”
n
n
nYun Xiaotian’s anger instantly disappeared, and he felt so happy he was at cloud nine. If he did not hold back, he might have started laughing out loud in satisfaction.
n
n
nYun Chujiu peeked at Yun Xiaotian’s expression, and she felt incredibly smug. ‘Ha! You might be a cunning old fox, but you can’t escape from me, the hunter! Ohohohoho!’
n
n
n“Third, my uncle, aunt, Fourth Brother, Fifth Sister, and Young Tenth will also need gifts. I’ve done many wrong things in the past, so I need to make up for my mistakes, right? Grandpa, asking for half of the money isn’t too much now, don’t you think?”
n
n
n“Of course it isn’t! Young Jiu, I don’t want their money anymore, you can keep all of it!” Yun Xiaotian’s heart burst with joy after listening to Yun Chujiu’s sweet-talk. Right now, forget about the silver, he would not hesitate in offering his life if Yun Chujiu wanted it now.
n
n
n“Grandpa, that won’t do! I’m still young, and it wouldn’t be good if I don’t control my spending. You can keep the other half for me. When I get married, you can use it for my dowry!” Yun Chujiu grinned and said impishly.
n
n
nYun Xiaotian laughed at Yun Chujiu’s sweet words. “Alright, alright! Then, I’ll keep it for you first. Once you find your ideal husband, all of this will become your dowry!”
n
n
nYun Chujiu continued acting like a spoiled but cute princess for a little while longer before she skipped off to look for Yun Chuwu.
n
n
nAnd while she scampered off, she started making sarcastic quips in her heart. ‘You think this is easy for me?!
n
n
n‘My original persona made too many mistakes, and I have to seize every opportunity to clear my name. Now, my new grandpa is basically on my side now, so I have to go to my eldest uncle’s house to get his affection.’
n
n
nWhen Yun Chujiu frolicked all the way to Yun Chuwu’s courtyard, she learned that Yun Chuwu had gone to her classes.
n
n
nIt was only at that moment that Yun Chujiu suddenly remembered that the Yun family had a cultivation hall. Aside from emergency matters in the family or resting days, all young members in the Yun family must attend classes in the cultivation hall. Since Yun Chujiu was absolutely hopeless when it came to cultivation and was constantly busy with trying to please Bai Moyu, she had never been to the cultivation hall before.
n
n
nYun Chujiu blinked and ran off to reach the area outside the cultivation hall.
n
n
nThe one who was looking after the cultivation hall was the Fifth Elder of the Yun family, Yun Xiaowen. When he saw Yun Chujiu coming over, he could not help but frown. “Yun Chujiu, why are you here at the cultivation hall?”
n
n
n“I’m here for classes! Aren’t all the disciples of the Yun family able to come for classes?” Yun Chujiu tilted her head to the side and asked seriously.
