"I'm doing this for your own good." She looked aggrieved. "You're my sister-in-law; how can I just stand by and watch you get scammed?" 0
 
"For my own good?" I laughed in anger. "I'm spending my money; what does it have to do with you?" 0
 
"Besides, who told you these things aren't worth that much?" 0
 
"Grandma's craftsmanship is excellent, and the materials are good. Five thousand three is already a bargain." 0
 
"Are you still complaining it's expensive?" My sister-in-law's voice was sharp. "Wang Zixuan, I think you're just deliberately opposing me." 0
 
"Exactly." My brother walked over and stood beside her. "Sister, your sister-in-law means well; don't bite the hand that feeds you." 0
 
My chest ached with anger. 0
 
Taking a deep breath, I pulled out my phone and typed an apology to Grandma. 0
 
Grandma smiled and said it was fine, even asking if I wanted to come back another day. 0
 
I shook my head, about to speak when my sister-in-law suddenly rushed over and shoved a hundred-dollar bill into Grandma's hand. 0
 
Then she turned to me and said, "This money is enough to buy these things; let's go." 0
 
As she spoke, she reached out to grab my arm. 0
 
I shook her hand off angrily and laughed in fury. "Sister-in-law, are you out of your mind?" 0
 
"Who told you to help pay?" 0
 
"I'm doing this for your own good." She had a righteous expression. "Wang Zixuan, I'm your sister-in-law; I can't just watch you get scammed." 0
 
"Alright, you're doing this for my good." I nodded and took out my phone. "How much did you just spend?" 0
 
"One hundred." She looked smug. "I told you, these things aren't worth anything." 0
 
I pressed my lips together, took out my wallet, counted out a thousand dollars, and shoved it into her hand. "Pay me back." 0
 
"What did you say?" She looked shocked. 0
 
"I said, pay me back." I enunciated each word through clenched teeth. 0
 
My sister-in-law exploded. "Wang Zixuan, are you crazy?" 0
 
 
"I am your sister-in-law. I save you money, and instead of thanking me, you want me to pay you back?" 0
 
"That's right," my brother chimed in, "Sister, you're being unreasonable." 0
 
I looked at them with a blank expression and replied coldly, "You both need to understand that I never asked her to pay." 0
 
"She paid, so why should I reimburse her?" 0
 
As I spoke, I reached out and snatched the hundred yuan from her hand. 0
 
Then I turned to the elderly lady and bowed in apology, saying I would come back tomorrow. 0
 
The elderly lady waved her hand, indicating it was fine. 0
 
I turned back to them and said, "And don't touch my money." 0
 
"Or else, I'll call the police." 0
 
"You..." My sister-in-law's face turned pale with anger. 0
 
My brother looked equally shocked. "Sister, you've changed. You weren't like this before." 0
 
"Have I changed?" I chuckled lightly. "Brother, don't forget that I'm your company's boss." 0
 
With that, I turned and left. 0
 
Back at the hotel, after taking a shower and preparing for bed, I suddenly heard a knock on the door. 0
 
Outside stood my sister-in-law, gazing at the door frame with a resentful expression. 0
 
When she saw me open the door, she immediately straightened up and regained her composure. 0
 
I frowned. "What do you want?" 0
 
"Nothing much," she huffed lightly as she walked in, glancing around with envy in her eyes. 0
 
"This room is really nice. How much does it cost per night?" 0
 
"12,888," I smiled slyly. "What? Do you like this kind of room too?" 0
 
"How much?" She exclaimed in shock. "That's so expensive!" 0
 
I raised an eyebrow and said deliberately, "Not too expensive. If you want to stay here, I can help you book one." 0
 
"Who said I wanted you to book it?" She scoffed and then pulled out a piece of paper. "Sign this." 0
 
 
I took a look and saw it was a Guarantee Letter. The content was roughly that she, my brother, and our parents would have no financial dealings with me in the future. Furthermore, I was to voluntarily give up my inheritance rights to the house under my parents' name. I smiled. They were afraid I might ask them for money later, so they were taking precautions in advance. 0
 
"Will you sign it?" she asked coldly. 0
 
I pulled out my phone and opened the video app. "I can sign it, but I want to record the entire process." 0
