Chapter 190: Check Your Balance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Wan shook her head slightly. “Mr. Chen, let’s discuss this after I cure your daughter. I haven’t cured Chen Shui’s illness yet. Who knows, I might fail.’
However, Chen Shan said, “Even if you fail, you should still accept this money. Take it. Otherwise, my conscience will not be at ease. If money can be exchanged for a healthier life for Shuishui, I will work hard to earn it for you even if you want a mountain of gold.”
Xia Wan saw Chen Shan’s determination and finally accepted his card.
After walking for a while, Xia Wan opened the red envelope and found a bank card inside. She went straight to the bank and asked the staff to check its balance.
At that time, there were no ATMs, so if she wanted to check the balance of an account, she had to go to the staff. So when Xia Wan sat down and told the staff that she wanted to check the balance on her bank card, the staff became a little impatient.
“You came here just to check the balance?” the staff member asked.
Xia Wan nodded calmly. “Yes, you’re in charge of the business here. My business is to check the balance. Why? Can’t you do it?”
The staff member was obviously disdainful of her when she spoke, so Xia Wan didn’t bother being polite. Although the staff member didn’t like Xia Wan and thought that she was poor, being able to work in a bank was a position that many people were envious of. She didn’t want to lose her job because of a dispute with Xia Wan.
Initially, the staff member was just casually checking, but when she saw the balance, she was completely dumbfounded.
“One… one hundred thousand?” The staff member mumbled subconsciously.
In their current financial situation, having ten thousand yuan in savings was enough to be considered an impressive feat. However, this young, ordinary-looking lady had so much money on her bank card.
Xia Wan raised her eyebrows slightly. “100,000 yuan?” The Chen family was indeed generous. In that era, 100000 yuan was no small amount. Simply put, it was sufficient to buy three houses in the county.
“Thank you,” she said. Xia Wan said and was about to take back the card.
The staff’s attitude towards Xia Wan immediately changed. She smiled and said, “Ma’am, please keep your card. If you need any help, just come to us.”
“By the way, the interest rate of our savings account is very high. Would you like to consider it?”
The staff started to promote the products to Xia Wan, but she shook her head. “It’s fine. I have other uses for this money.”
Seeing that Xia Wan didn’t save any money, the staff member looked a little regretful, but she didn’t say anything.
After Xia Wan left, the bank officer immediately discussed with her colleagues about the balance on Xia Wan’s bank card.
“She’s dressed so ordinarily, so how could she have so much money in her card? But she’s quite pretty. Could she be a sugar baby?”
“It can’t be. She looks like a student. Do all students have a sugar daddy?”
“You don’t understand. There are some people nowadays who just like educated female students.’
Xia Wan didn’t hear those things. Even if she did, she wouldn’t explain anything. She didn’t need to care about what these people thought of her.
When she was about to reach home, she noticed something was wrong. There were a few people gathered outside the villa. They were Li Jin, Song Yan, Chen Lian, and the others. Other than Xia Jiang and Xia He, who were still at work, Xia Ru was the only one not there. The others were all standing in front of the villa, cursing.
Although the environment of the villa given by Zhou Tian was quiet, there were still neighbors around. Li Jin’s noisy behavior had already attracted a small crowd.
“Who are these people? Why are they so noisy? Can’t they let us rest? It’s not like you’re the only family here. Can’t you make noise elsewhere?”
A fashionably dressed middle-aged woman stood next door and shouted impatiently.
Li Jin shouted even louder, “I’m such a poor old lady. My son is living in a villa, but I’m still living in a leaky house in the village. How did I give birth to such a heartless son?”
Xia Chen said to Li Jin through the iron door, “Grandma, we’ve already moved out. You didn’t even pay for my father’s medical expenses when he was seriously ill, leaving us to fend for ourselves. You were the one who suggested we move out, and you said you were afraid that our family would drag you down. Now that we’ve rented a house, you’re here to make a scene. Grandma, don’t you feel ashamed?”
Li Jin snorted coldly. “You still have the guts to say such things? Back then, you couldn’t even afford to pay medical expenses, but now you have the money to rent such a good villa. Clearly, you lied to me. You wanted your family to split with us and live a good life on your own..”
