Chapter 528: 528 Xun asks Qingyue for money 3

“Why do you know just by looking at me?”

She glared at him, “Because your face is screaming ‘I want money, I want money, I want money, I want money!’”

His facial expression froze, she threw the moneybag across the table to him, “Why the stiff face? You asked me to come, isn’t it to get your moneybag back?”

He caught the moneybag accurately, not denying her words which meant he admitted it, “Miss Su, do you not want the money?”

She shrugged, “I said, the owner can come to me to get their moneybag back at any time. I’ll return what I said I would. Wait, there’s an ‘Xun’ on the moneybag, and your name is Jin Xun, but there are many people called Xun. You haven’t said how much money is in it.”

The corner of his mouth twitched, “There’s no silver, but there are two silver notes of 2500 taels each.”

“What?” Now it was her turn to freeze.

He opened the moneybag, took out the two silver notes, “Five thousand taels of silver.”

Ji chimed in at the right time, “In our town, other than my family head such a big boss, who else would carry so much money in their moneybag? Ordinary people don’t have that much money.”

Jin Xun cast an admiring glance at Su Qingyue, “Miss Su, faced with 5000 taels of silver notes, you still don’t care. You regard money as dirt, Miss Su, truly having integrity!”

Even Xiao Qinghe was surprised, “What’s going on?”

Ji kindly explained, “Fourth brother Xiao doesn’t know the situation, right? Your wife…” He originally intended to say ‘your wife,’ but considering his master was calling Su Qingyue “Miss Su,” he changed his words, “Miss Su caught a thief in town last time. That thief stole several people’s moneybags, including my master’s. Miss Su returned everyone else’s moneybags. Now, Miss Su has returned my master’s.”

“Qingyue, you encountered a thief… and caught the thief…” Xiao Qinghe was startled and broke out in a cold sweat, looking at her worriedly. Then he thought about how his wife didn’t care about 5000 taels, which was a fortune that ordinary people couldn’t make in many lifetimes. How noble and upright!

Su Qingyue was bewildered, shit!

There was so much money in Jin Xun’s moneybag!

The moneybag looked so unremarkable, flat, and belonged to someone else.

She was too lazy to open it.

If she had known that there were two such huge silver notes in the moneybag, she wouldn’t have returned it; instead, she would have taken her husband and his family away, rolled to some distant town to buy land and start anew, becoming wealthy like a grease connoisseur. Would she still need to earn those bitter copper coins?

On the other hand, the rich Jin Xun seemed to be just missing a few hairs with the loss of 5,000 taels.

Why must she be a good person? ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Now, she had returned the money.

Too late, can she get it back?

Her face put on a forced smile, “Boss Jin, you’re too kind. I don’t have the integrity you mentioned.” She stood up and reached her hand across the table, “If Boss Jin doesn’t think it’s necessary to return the money, keeping it with me is also fine…”

Jin Xun put the moneybag back into his sleeve pocket, “Miss Su and I are not related, my money should stay with me. Five thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, as a businessman, I care a lot about it, unlike Miss Su, who is righteous and not greedy. In terms of character, Jin still loses.”

Su Qingyue couldn’t get the moneybag back, so she grabbed a piece of osmanthus cake from Jin Xun’s plate, took a bite and put it in her mouth.

“Miss Su, do you like osmanthus cake? I’ll have the chef pack some for you to take home later.” Jin Xun said, and instructed Ji, who was standing next to him, “Ask the chef to prepare ten servings of osmanthus cake for Miss Su.”
