“Wan Wan, don’t you recognize Second Uncle? I carried you when you were young!”

“Wan Wan, I’m your grandaunt. You came to our house for a meal when you were young!”

“My dear niece, you’ve grown so big. You’re really pretty. Do you want me to introduce you to some young men from our unit?”

…

A few people outside started yapping noisily. Their voices were deafening. Xu Wan was afraid that they would disturb the neighbors, so she quickly let them in.

“Um, Cousin, Grandaunt, First Aunt…” Xu Wan barely matched the faces of the people in front of her with their identities before asking, “What are you here for?

“What else could we be here for? We were worried that the Qiao family would bully you after Old Master Qiao left. Don’t worry, if the Qiao family doesn’t treat you well, feel free to find us!”

“Yes, yes, we will definitely support you!”

…

Xu Wan looked at these people silently. She recalled how none of these relatives were willing to take her in when her parents just passed away.

Yet, after she went to the Qiao family, they came a few times to look for her. They always came to borrow money in the name of visiting her, but Old Master Qiao chased them away every time.

Xu Wan did not believe that these people were here to care about her.

She was also puzzled. How did these people know she lived here?

“Little Wan,” Xu Wan’s uncle glanced at her rental apartment. “How can you live in such a place? It’s too small. You should at least rent a condominium!”

“Eh, this sofa is already old. It’s really uncomfortable sitting here…”

“Wan Wan, why are you using canvas bags? Don’t you have CB, Chloé, and Lancel bags?”

…

After the group of people entered, they started commenting on Xu Wan’s house and household goods.

Xu Wan looked at everyone in confusion. “This house is quite cheap. It’s close to my school too. It’s pretty good… I’m just a student. What else would I carry other than canvas bags…”

“What are you even saying?” First Aunt had a look of disbelief. “You already have tens of billions worth of assets. How can you live in such a place? You won’t even be able to spend all your money in a few lifetimes. If you don’t spend it in ordinary times, what’s the point of keeping it!”

Tens of billions? Xu Wan’s eyes widened in shock.

How did these people know about the tens of billions?

Also, she did not take the money. What were they talking about?

“Um, Little Wan… your cousin recently got a girlfriend who wants to buy a house in the capital. The house isn’t expensive, just over ten million yuan. Our family has raised two million yuan. Can you help to sponsor your cousin eight million?”

“Wan Wan, your aunt is getting old and has recently been laid off. I have nothing much to do at home, so I want to invest in stocks. I’ve already told people that there’s a stock with huge potential. Can you lend some money to your aunt? When I become rich, I’ll return you the principal with interest!”

“There’s me too. Little Wan, you’ve been close to Grandaunt since young. Grandaunt doesn’t ask for much. I just want to build a small villa in the countryside. You already have tens of billions. Surely you can bear to give Grandaunt some money, right?”

…

Xu Wan stared at everyone in shock. She was stunned by everyone’s words.

“Wait… I, I don’t even have tens of billions worth of assets!” Xu Wan waved her hands frantically as she explained. “Where did you hear that from?”

“What are you even saying, Little Wan? Are you going to hide it from us too? I know. You are rich and you can’t let others know about it. Otherwise, everyone will have their eyes on you. However, we’re a family. Shouldn’t we help each other out?”

“Yes, Little Wan, we all knew about it. Don’t hide it anymore. Look at you. You don’t even know how to spend money when you’re rich. You’re still living in such a place. When we get back, Grandaunt will find you a grand villa!”

…

Xu Wan’s face darkened. At last, she couldn’t hold it in anymore and yelled, “I don’t have money! The money isn’t with me. It’s with Qiao Chen!”

“My dear child, how could you lie? Didn’t your aunt just want to borrow some money from you? Look at how petty you are. If your parents knew that you don’t care about familial ties, they would chide you from heaven!”

“Little Wan, you can’t be like this. You’re still young. It’s not safe for you to have so much money. It wouldn’t be good if you get targeted by a man. Grandaunt can keep it safe for you, then find you a suitable partner. Isn’t that great…”

“Get out!” Xu Wan could not take it anymore. Her expression was terrible.

“You…” Xu Wan’s uncle’s expression turned nasty. “You heartless brat.”

“Get out! Otherwise, I’ll call the police!” Xu Wan chased her relatives away one by one and slammed the door shut.

“Little Wan, it’s okay if you don’t understand now. We’ll come back tomorrow. Think about it carefully!” Her grandaunt’s voice was still echoing outside.

Xu Wan was so enraged that her face was trembling. She leaned against the door and sat down weakly..
