When I got home, my wife and Adopted Son went to the room to eat Snail Noodle Soup, s Yi ng they were afraid the smell would be too strong and didn't want me to smell it. I sat on the sofa, pondering over that suspicious character.
Adopted Son walked over and extended his hand to me. "Dad, can I have some money?" he asked.
I looked at him in confusion. "What do you need money for?"
Adopted Son smiled. "I want to buy a gift for my girlfriend."
My heart tightened. Could it be Senior Sister? But I quickly dismissed that thought. If it were Senior Sister, my wife would definitely know who she was.
I took out my phone and transferred ten thousand yuan to him, reminding him, "Treat her well."
Adopted Son nodded and turned to leave. I watched his back and suddenly thought, could his girlfriend be the one who was cheating on me? But Adopted Son had just started dating; it seemed unlikely he would have such means. Moreover, he usually spent a lot of money and couldn't possibly afford to support someone else.
I sighed and fell into deep thought again.
The next day, my wife excitedly said, "Honey, will you accompany me for my prenatal checkup?"
I shook my head. "I'm very busy; let Xiao Yang go with you."
My wife didn't work and had been spending my money. I realized I had been too generous in the past; every transfer I made to her was marked as a gift. This meant that the money from before could no longer be reclaimed.
To prevent her from continuing to use my money, I needed to find a way to resolve this issue before the end of the month when the next financial gift date arrived.
Before the agreed date came, I intentionally avoided mentioning it. Until bedtime, my wife came into my room unprompted.
"Honey, your salary hasn't been paid yet," she said, blinking at me.
I tapped my forehead and pretended to have a sudden realization, "Look at my memory; I invested all the money."
She was taken aback, "Huh? You invested everything?"
I nodded, "Yes, once the investment is successful, you'll be a wealthy lady."
A look of disappointment crossed her face as she whispered, "So what do we do now?"
I sighed, "I'm anxious too, but we can't delay the investment."
She bit her lip and hesitated for a moment, "Then... how can I help you?"
I feigned hesitation and said softly, "I urgently need to borrow two hundred fifty thousand; can you help me think of a way?"
She thought for a moment and nodded, "I'll do my best."
Seizing the opportunity, I urged her, "Hurry up; it's urgent."
She took out her phone and fiddled with it for a while, and immediately I received a transfer notification on my phone.
I suppressed a laugh and put on a serious expression, s Yi ng, "I'll pay you back as soon as possible."
She smiled lightly, "It's fine; I trust you."
However, before I could even warm up that money in my hands, my father-in-law and mother-in-law came knocking at the door.
As soon as they entered, they sighed heavily and lamented about the difficulties of life.
I pretended to care and asked about their situation.
My father-in-law sighed again, "Your mother has stomach cancer; we need money for treatment."
My wife covered her mouth and began to cry, "Mom, how did you get such a disease?"
I feigned shock, "What? It's that serious? We need to hurry to the hospital!"
My mother-in-law shook her head, "I'm old; I can't handle much more."
I said seriously, "That won't do! If you're sick, you need treatment. I'll take you to the hospital."
S Yi ng this, I pulled my mother-in-law towards the door.
She struggled to step back, "I really don't need to go; just give me the money, and I'll see a doctor myself."
I stopped in my tracks and turned to look at my father-in-law: "Do you not want to invest anymore?"
My father-in-law was taken aback and smiled awkwardly, "That's not what I meant, it's just..."
I interrupted him, "Since that's not what you meant, just listen to me. I'll take your mom to the hospital."
