After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me-Chapter 1125: Meeting the In-Laws

Qin Er walked for over ten minutes before finally finding Shao Shanshan.

Strange, could her voice travel that far? Just now, it sounded like they were arguing right next to him. What was going on?

Qin Er was confused, but before he could think too it through, his attention was drawn elsewhere. He saw the two of them arguing, faces red with anger.

He Ping had a mocking look on his face as he stared at Shao Shanshan. "You’re just trying to threaten me, aren’t you? You actually stopped my mom’s medication. Shao Shanshan, from today on, we’re breaking up! From now on, my family’s business has nothing to do with you!"

"Even if you beg me, I won’t look at you again!"

Just as Shao Shanshan was about to explain, a voice interrupted, "If she stopped your mom’s medication, why don’t you just pay for it yourself? It’s only natural to take care of your own mom."

"Others outsource their filial piety, at least they give it to their legally-married wives. But you’re outsourcing it to your girlfriend? That’s a first for me."

Both of them turned their heads, and they saw Qin Er standing there.

Shao Shanshan was momentarily stunned.

He Ping’s face darkened upon seeing him. After recalling what Qin Er had just said, his face flushed even more red with embarrassment as he snapped, "I told you, I don’t want her money!"

In contrast to his rage, Qin Er remained calm. His tone was tranquil, but the words he spoke were enough to infuriate He Ping further: "Then why are you angry?"

He didn’t want her money, and now she wasn’t giving it to him. Shouldn’t he be happy about that? What was there to be upset about?

He Ping was taken aback. He couldn’t very well admit that the hospital room was too expensive—costing thousands a day—and his job only paid enough to cover a day or two, could he?

Shao Shanshan seemed to snap out of her trance, her mind echoing with the words—"he’s a freeloader."

These two siblings were complete brainwashers! The words had been turning in her head all day, and that’s why she had argued with He Ping earlier.

Had it been before, she would have eagerly used her own money to pay for it and would have tried to soothe He Ping, telling him not to get upset.

But now, it felt strange. She was the one spending money—why was she being so subservient?

With that thought, she didn’t feel the need to defend He Ping.

He Ping waited for a while, but when Shao Shanshan didn’t offer him any support, his temper flared, and he glared fiercely at both Qin Er and Shao Shanshan.

"People like you, with money, can stand there and speak without feeling the pinch."

"Shao Shanshan, from today, I won’t take another cent from you!"

With that, he stormed off.

It wouldn’t take long before she’d have to pay for the medication again. And when that time came, he was sure he wouldn’t even look at her again!

Shao Shanshan watched as He Ping’s figure disappeared, her instinct telling her to chase after him, but then she recalled Qin Er’s words, "he’s a freeloader," and her back straightened.

Chase after him? When had she ever seen someone so audacious in asking for money?

Her temper flared, and at that moment, her pride as the young lady of the Shao family kicked in.

She wasn’t going to serve him anymore!

With this thought in mind, she lifted her head and found Qin Er looking at her, his gaze almost burning. It made her face flush slightly. "Why are you looking at me?"

For money.

Qin Er saw that she wasn’t going to take out her card and sighed inwardly, a bit disappointed.

He wasn’t her official bodyguard, so it felt awkward to ask for money after just a few words.

Since she wasn’t offering, it seemed he wouldn’t be getting the money.

Well, never mind. He had known all along that it was best not to get too involved!

He turned to leave, but Shao Shanshan hurriedly called after him, "Wait!"

She ran up to him and cleared her throat. "Ahem, thank you earlier. Where do you live? Let me give you a ride."

That was fine. It would save her a few bucks on the subway.

Qin Er immediately broke into a radiant smile. "Sure, thank you."

Shao Shanshan was momentarily taken aback by his smile. How could someone look so handsome? She noticed that his clothes were a little worn, and he was carrying a dusty bundle. She then remembered that he was selling things at the street market. It was clear that life wasn’t easy for him.

Her voice softened a little. "You’re welcome."

With that, she walked over to the side of the road and hailed a car.

Qin Er casually got in.

The driver glanced at him with some surprise. Wasn’t he the older brother from that pair of siblings? He’d been watching him for a while today.

"By the way, where do you live?" Shao Shanshan asked.

Qin Er gave her the address.

Shao Shanshan paused for a moment, the area he mentioned was a luxury neighborhood.

It wasn’t the kind of place where you could buy a house just with money.

Her father had tried to buy property there before but had been unsuccessful.

He actually lived there?

Looking at his clothes, she guessed that he must work there.

She didn’t have any prejudice against him—she just thought it was admirable that he worked multiple jobs a day.

Qin Er didn’t know what was going on in her mind. After giving the address, he took out his computer and started working.

He had some free time today and wanted to use the opportunity to get another translation done.

By the time they arrived home, the payment for the job had already come through.

He couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.

Shao Shanshan noticed this and gained a deeper understanding of his "poverty."

He looked far poorer than He Ping, but he wasn’t as sensitive about it. Whether it was being poor or loving money, he was completely straightforward about it.

Somehow, this made him more likeable.

When they arrived at his place, Qin Er immediately got out, waved at them, and headed inside.

Shao Shanshan withdrew her gaze and signaled the driver to leave.

Back at home, she went to her room, and the bodyguard who worked part-time as a driver quietly relayed everything to Shao Kang.

After listening, Shao Kang asked, "Where does he live?"

The bodyguard repeated the address, though he didn’t quite understand why Shao Kang was so interested.

Shao Kang slapped his thigh. That’s where the Qin family lived!

He remembered now—the Qin family! The family of that strange person, Qin Dafu!

The guy born into the Qin family but obsessed with money and so miserly!

Shao Kang’s mouth twitched. He never expected it to be him.

But then again, he was much better than He Ping, the one who lived off women.

Because if you gave Qin Dafu money, he would treat you like a king.

As Shao Kang thought about Qin Er, his eyes gleamed with a sly light.

That’s the one!

Qin Er, completely unaware that he was now in Shao Kang’s sights, went to set up his market stall after his day’s of work.

When Zhouzhou arrived, she found a middle-aged man sitting in front of the stall. When she saw his face, she was somewhat surprised.

He looked a lot like that Sister Generous.

Thinking of this, Zhouzhou took a few extra glances.

Qin Er noticed her first. He took what Zhouzhou handed him and helped her set up the stall.

Shao Kang’s eyes then shifted to Zhouzhou’s face.

Suddenly, he spoke, "Young lady, I hear you can tell fortunes. Can you give me a reading?"

"Sure." Zhouzhou flashed a bright smile and eagerly agreed.

Shao Kang continued, "Can you tell me when my daughter will get married?"

Zhouzhou looked at him and smiled again. "That depends on when you take action, Uncle."

Then, her eyes subtly shifted toward Qin Er...
