Chapter 1230: Flatterer

When they were chatting, Raelle finally came to their side and said, "Why do I think you both have been talking about me?"         

    

Xiang Weimin and Xiang Wai shared a look before Xiang Wai said, "Why? Can't we do that?"     

"Are you talking bad about me?"     

"Why it's not allowed?" asked Xiang Wai.     

"You can do it. Who is stopping you? But chewing your tongue behind someone's back is not a good practice. Especially when you should be a role model as an upright, brave, courageous, and ethical soldier. So, say whatever you want in an above-board manner. Say it to my face. I don't mind. You won't be the first one calling me bad and neither will you be the last."     

Xiang Wai and Xiang Weimin were momentarily speechless and even shook their heads at her in sync.      

"We just called you the rich kid of the Xiang family. Nothing else," explained Xiang Wai. "And we aren't even wrong. We are just stating facts, no? We are the paupers compared to you."     

Raelle nodded her head in agreement, "Indeed, that's a fact. Undeniable one. Who told me to be so good with numbers? It's a talent you didn't inherit. However, calling yourself a pauper is insulting paupers. After all, you both are nowhere near a pauper." She paused to find where Shui Xian was and seeing that he was playing happily with Coco over there, she looked back to say, "Leaving aside the inheritance from the Xiang family, you can't tell me that you both didn't get anything from your parents. No matter how irresponsible General Xiang Hulin and Professor Song Xin'ai are as parents, they would never wrong you both materially. And whatever they have will eventually go to you both. Apart from that, you both got the 'pocket money' from Chenyan and Opa too. Am I right?"     

"How do you know that?" asked Xiang Wai in surprise. "Did aunt tell you?"     

"No," answered Raelle. "Every month she'll deposit the same amount that she gave me to two different accounts. I could tell why she did it. And now that you both are here, she must have given you the cards right?"     

"Okay, we have a generous family," said Xiang Wai.     

"However," finally Xiang Weimin chimed in. "What we really meant to say was not this. This is all something we got without much effort. We got these deals because we have the surname, Xiang, we have rich parents, and an even richer aunt. We meant to say that you're the most competent one when it comes to money since you didn't inherit it all. You earned most of it yourself. Doesn't that make you the best?"     

"My bank amount doesn't get to decide whether I'm the best or not. I was born the best."     

Xiang Weimin chuckled, "Okay. I won't argue with that."     

"However, sometimes I do doubt whether I'm really the best. Because in my opinion, Hyson is a level above me."     

"Why would you say that?" asked Xiang Wai curiously.     

"You should know that he is very talented but he doesn't want to be a big boss working in a big company day and night. So, he chose to invest. Where did he invest? In his best friend."

"That's you!"     

"Exactly! He always put his money on me. Whenever I started a new project, he'd conveniently go and buy a chunk of shares and forget all about it. At the end of the year, his back account would be looking good without doing anything at all. So, technically, he just played me around and earned money through my hard work."     

Xiang Wai clapped her hands, "For the first time, I think he is a genius! Why didn't I think of this? Investing in Raelle Xiang couldn't be a losing project at all. I only see benefits. I learned something today." She looked at Raelle with shining eyes, "Ge, next time, I'll also follow this. Even if this sister is rude. Since I'm the cute sister, I'll compromise. Nothing above money."     

"You're the cute sister?" asked Raelle.     

"Why? Any doubt?"     

"I have plenty," answered Raelle.     

"I called you rude. Didn't you notice that one?" asked Xiang Wai in surprise.     

"Nothing new about that. Anyway, I know I'm rude. So, I don't mind you calling me what I am."     

"Wow! You're good."         

    

"I really wasted my time coming here," said Raelle and turned to leave. "By the way, next time don't run around like little kids. Or else, don't tell people you are my siblings!"     

Xiang Weimin and Xiang Wai looked at each other and gave her a sheepish smile.     

"Do you wanna go out shopping?" asked Xiang Weimin.     

"Huh? Where did that come from?" asked Xiang Wai.     

"I wanna buy a new car," answered Xiang Weimin. "At least when I'm at home, I'd like to use a new car or else the next time, my little sister might really refuse to even recognize me as her brother."     

"I don't think Raelle would do that."     

"No. But she'll give me that pitiful look like I'm so poor. Last time, she even gifted me a brand new car after just one ride in my jeep. Can you believe it? She thought I really culdn't buy the new car! It made me feel so useless. Like I was really making my sister's standard down by making her sit in my old jeep."     

"You never thought like that when we went out."     

"Have you looked at your own car?" asked Xiang Weimin.     

"It's a classic piece! Do you understand? Classic!"     

"I don't care. It's older."     

"Old is gold!"     

"Yeah. Yeah. Whatever floats your boat," said Xiang Weimin as he walked back home.     

Xiang Wai trotted after him while still insisting that her car was the best.     

"What's up? What's going on with you two? I could hear your voices when you left and I can still hear it when you came back. What are you both up to?"     

"It's her," Xiang Weimin pointed at his sister without any hesitation and went to wake up his son.     

Xiang Wai was left stomping her foot and complained to Mu Chenyan, "Aunt, he called my car old. Can you believe it?"     

Mu Chenyan pursed her lips.     

"You! You also agree with him?"     

"I can't help it. Your car is really old."     

"It's a classic piece. You have several in your collection."     

"Focus on the word, collection!" said Mu Chenyan. "I don't ride them out everyday or something. Most of the time they stay in the garage and act as showpieces. That's their job."     

"You all are looking down on my car now."     

"No, no. Wai, why don't you go and take whatever car you want from the garage? It's all yours. Don't worry about it."     

"No! I'll go and buy a new one to show you all! Anyway, my brother's card will be in my hand."

Mu Chenyan's lips twitched, "You are gonna buy a car from your brother's money?"     

"Why? Can't I do that?" asked Xiang Wai. "He is my brother. He has to buy me a car if I feel like it. Why should I spend my own money? I have it but why should I? It feels great when you buy something from your brother's money."     

Watching her going upstairs, Mu Chenyan had a thoughtful expression and turned to find her own brother, "Ge! Lin Ge!"     

"What? Why are you calling me so early in the morning?"     

"Ge, give me your card!"     

"Huh?" Xiang Hulin was dumbfounded.     

"Why? You won't give it?"     

Xiang Hulin shook his head and took out his wallet then gave her all the cards.      

"I'll take this black one," she said as she took one card happily. "I had my eyes on a new model. I'll buy it today."     

"You wanna buy a car?" asked Xiang Hulin.     

"Yes!" she answered. "Why? You won't buy me a car?"     

"That's not it," said Xiang Hulin. "Keep the card. You buy whatever you want. It doesn't matter. I'd never stop you. I'm just surprised that you asked me for money. We have grown up together and you have asked me for plenty of things in life but you never asked me for money before this."     

"That's because I have plenty of money," she answered.     

"Exactly, my point. You never lacked money."     

"I still don't lack it. It's just that Wai said things bought from your brother's money make you feel better. I want to try this theory," she told happily.     

Xiang Hulin shook his head helplessly and rubbed her head, "Then you buy more things. Don't hold back and don't feel bad for your brother. My money is catching dust in the bank anyway."     

"Don't worry! I won't make you go bankrupt," she assured him. "After all, you still have to leave something for your kids."     

"They come later than my sister. So, you buy without any other thought."     

Mu Chenyan hugged his arm saying, "Aiyo! Who else has such an amazing brother? Only me! Only Chenyan does."     

'Flatterer!' that was the thought of Yue Yue who saw this new version of her best friend. She never thought she would get to see this Mu Chenyan one day too. This domineering woman was always willing to take out her own black card to swipe, swipe, and swipe for others, and was now flattering her own brother to buy her things.      

No wonder people said that Mu Chenyan was different when her brother was around. Wasn't this different enough?
