Chapter 832 - The Wedding (14)

The two of them halted and turned around.

Xia Nuannuan bit her lip and said, “Aunty Mei, my- my dowry- the check- It’s still with you...”

Before she could finish, her face started burning and turning scarlet.

At the same time, Mei Feng said, “Oh, now that you mention it, it’s a good reminder.”

Xia Nuannuan exhaled in relief.

She thought that Mei Feng would return the check but, unexpectedly, the woman said instead, “Your dad says that since Zihao is married and grown up now, he should enter the family business. In the future, he should depend on himself for expenditures.”

When Xia Nuannuan heard this, she panicked.

A portion of that money, 1.11 million, were taken from her parents’ savings.

Her parents had never thought of asking that money back for themselves, but it was money that they had given her.

Now that Mei Feng was holding onto it, what would that mean?

Besides, she knew that Mei Feng didn’t like her.

Xia Nuannuan was about to speak again when Mei Feng smiled and looked towards Shen Zihao, saying, “The money is with me, I’m sure you’re not worried about that, right? Zihao, what do you say?”

Shen Zihao casually replied without much thinking, “It’s not that much money. Even if you spent all of it, it’s fine. There’s nothing to worry about.”

9.99 million was a figure that didn’t bother Shen Zihao a bit.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It would cost that much to buy a car and there were more than ten cars in their garage.

Xia Nuannuan was speechless.

Did Shen Zihao possess any worldly wisdom at all?!

How could he just make such a decision about her dowry?

But now, it was too late. There was no way to get that money back.

She couldn’t possibly berate Shen Zihao in front of his parents.

She bit her tongue, feeling like a giant wad of cotton wool had been shoved down her throat.

After they went back to their room, Xia Nuannuan and Shen Zihao too headed back to their bedroom.

The moment they stepped in, Xia Nuannuan looked towards Shen Zihao and said, “Zihao, the 9.99 million—”

“Okay, I know you’re worried. Tomorrow I’ll give you 9.99 million, ok? The check from today, let her keep it. Besides, the check was made in your name. Without you, she can’t withdraw the money, so you don’t have to fret.”

What else could the girl say?

The following day, Shen Zihao discovered...

“My account, why is it frozen?! I can’t even withdraw a single cent!”

This was when he realized what Mei Feng had meant when she said those words.

The Shen family was serious about cutting off Shen Zihao’s resources so that he would go to work obediently.

–

Xia Yehua was nervous every single day about the sufferings that Xia Nuannuan had to go through.

In the mornings, she would say, “I wonder if Mei Feng will torture Xia Nuannuan.”

In the afternoons, she would say, “I hope they are not making Xia Nuannuan cook lunch.”

In the evenings, she would ask, “What do you think Nuannuan and Zihao are doing? I hope they are not cleaning the house.”

Even Qiao Lian found her attitude funny. “Mom, those who know are aware that you got a daughter-in-law, but those who don’t know might think that you’ve given away a daughter!”

Xia Yehua was aware of her repeated comments. She laughed. “I’m only worried that Mei Feng might bully Xia Nuannuan. Nuannuan isn’t like you, she’s gentler.”

Qiao Lian laughed and said, “But I feel that Xia Nuannuan is a very wise person.”

Shen Liangchuan stood there and was about to add to the conversation when his cell phone rang.

He picked up the call. It was Song Cheng. “Brother Shen, we’ve managed to find out everything related to Soul Fighter.”
