Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a few days, Jiang Feng still had not come up with a way to solve his financial problems. Fortunately, Luo Yuchang had yet to make a move so there was still time.

At this time, Jiang Feng received a call from Jiang Jianzhong. He said, “Little Feng, your second aunt and cousin are at the train station. Quickly accompany your second uncle to pick them up.”

Jiang Feng called for a car. After picking his second uncle up, they went to the train station.

The train station was bustling. Jiang Feng’s second uncle was also knocked to the ground by the stream of people.

Jiang Feng quickly caught his second uncle.

Jiang Feng’s second uncle looked around. When he did not see his wife and daughter, he brought his phone out as he muttered, “There are too many people. I wonder where they are.”

After dialing his wife’s number, just as he placed his phone against his ear, Jiang Feng’s second aunt saw him.

She waved and called out, “Over here!”

Jiang Shi jumped and waved as well. She did not behave like a teenager, but more like a child. Her eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Feng, who was standing next to her father. She thought her cousin was rather handsome. Seeing that her cousin had such a big house, she thought his ability must not be bad as well. In short, he was young and promising. She thought that he must have a lot of fangirls and wondered how she could make money from them.

Jiang Shi and her mother had quite a lot of luggage with them.Seeing this, Jiang Feng helped them with it.

Jiang Feng’s second aunt quickly stopped him, worried he would be tired. She said, “You’re Little Feng, right? Don’t worry. We’ll carry the luggage ourselves.”

“Second Aunt, don’t be so polite. The car is just outside so the walk isn’t long,” Jiang Feng said. He ignored his second aunt’s refusal and took the luggage from her.

“Little Feng, you’re really sensible. My daughter is really insensible. She brought so many useless things and added to our burden,” Jiang Feng’s second aunt said as she looked at Jiang Shi with a hint of reproach.

Jiang Shi wore an indignant expression on her face as she grumbled, “What do you mean by useless things? Mom, you don’t understand me at all. Isn’t it normal for girls to have a lot of things? I have uses for all of them.”

“What useful things do you have? Aren’t they just cosmetics that take up space? You have too many things. Let’s see how you’re going to arrange them later,” Jiang Feng’s second aunt said, showing signs of bickering with Jiang Shi as she glared at Jiang Shi.

“Second Aunt, don’t worry. The house is big. Little Shi will have space to keep her things,” Jiang Feng said.

“Cousin, you’re the best! I’m your fangirl from now on!” Jiang Shi said as she cleverly held Jiang Feng’s arm before making a face at her mother.

“This child!” Jiang Feng’s second aunt looked at her daughter helplessly as she said, “Little Feng, she might cause you a lot of trouble in the future. She’s really not obedient.”

“No, I’m very obedient!” Jiang Shi said as she winked at Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng was amused. “Don’t worry, Second Aunt. I’ll look after Little Shi.”

“Look, Cousin said don’tworry,” Jiang Shi said to her parents. Then, she said bitterly to Jiang Feng, “Cousin, where’s the car? I still have to do my homework when we get back.”

Then, Jiang Shi’s eyes lit up as she continued to say, “However, I’ll be going to school in the city, right? I can’t wait. I can go out and play as well!”

“You’re quite smart. Yes, you’ll be going to school in the city,” Jiang Feng said with a nod as he led the trio to the car.

The designated driver placed the luggage in the trunk of the car while Jiang Feng gestured to the family of three to get into the car.

Jiang Shi looked around and exclaimed inwardly, ‘Wow! Cousin even has a chauffeur!’

After Jiang Feng got into the passenger’s seat, Jiang Shi hurriedly asked, “Cousin, where did you get your money? You even have a chauffeur and a big house. I really admire you!”

“I don’t have a chauffeur. I called for a car to pick you up. As for the house, I was just lucky,” Jiang Feng replied with a faint smile.

“This kind of luck is too heaven-defying! Cousin, if you need help, you can talk to me. Although I’m just a high school student, my life experience is not bad!” Jiang Shi said, promoting herself. Her eyes shone with eagerness as she looked at Jiang Feng.

“Alright, alright, if I need anything, I’ll look for you,” Jiang Feng said with a smile. He thought that his cousin was quite interesting.

“How much money can you earn doing your stupid live stream every day? I don’t see you offering to help your father,” Jiang Feng’s second aunt said sarcastically. Then, she said with a helpless expression, “Little Feng, your cousin only thinks about nonsense every day. Fortunately, she’s first in her grade. Otherwise, I’d be angered to death.”

Jiang Feng’s second uncle’s expression turned solemn as he said, “It’s almost time for you to prepare for your college entrance exams. Little Shi, you should stop doing those live broadcasts.”

“Dad, don’t you trust me? I’ll definitely pass the exams! Even if I spend my time playing, I’d still get first place!” Jiang Shi said casually as she shrugged, “I wonder if those who study day and night are tired. They should also allocate time to play like me! Isn’t that good?”

Jiang Feng did not say anything and only listened quietly. Perhaps, after Jiang Shi graduated from university, he would let her work in the company. With that, he could take care of her. Moreover, she seemed quite smart. With this, his second uncle and second aunt would not need to worry and can enjoy their old age peacefully.

Jiang Feng’s second aunt sighed and asked, “Little Feng, how are your parents? I haven’t seen them in a long time. Your second uncle was very busy, after all.”

“They’re doing well. My father is still plagued with his old illness, but it’s curable and not life-threatening. I’ve also found a doctor to treat Second Uncle. Don’t worry,” Jiang Feng replied with a smile.

“I’ve heard about it from your second uncle. I really feel at ease with you around. However, I really feel sorry about troubling you with this matter. Little Feng, don’t spend too much money on us. You’re not only running your company, but you also have to start a family of your own in the future. You have to save your money,” Jiang Feng’s second aunt said with a sigh, “If only your two cousins are as capable as you, I’d be content for the rest of my life.”

“Little Shi and Chengyuan are very good. They have a bright future ahead of them,” Jiang Feng said.

Jiang Shi patted her chest and chimed in, “Mom, Dad, don’t worry. I won’t rely on my brother and cousin in the future! I’ll rely on my own ability to get a good job that I like!”

“You? I’d be happy as long as you don’t cause trouble for us.” Jiang Feng’s second aunt said before pursing her lips. However, she was inwardly happy.

Although Jiang Shi seemed carefree, she was still very filial to her parents. Although she had grown up, she did not forget her parents.

Jiang Feng’s second aunt thought to herself, ‘Perhaps, I’ll be able to enjoy her filial piety like Little Feng’s parents.’

Jiang Shi laughed and said, “Mom, trust me! When I’m successful in the future, you can just enjoy your life!”

“Alright, alright. You’re still young now so you should focus on your studies first,” Jiang Feng’s second uncle said happily. He did not expect his daughter to be so ambitious. His daughter would definitely be outstanding in the future.

“Just wait and see! In a few years, you’ll see the results!” Jiang Shi said arrogantly.

At this time, the car turned into a street.

Jiang Shi’s eyes darkened immediately as she said through gritted teeth, “If it were for this wretched place, Dad wouldn’t have fallen ill again, and the company wouldn’t have fallen to such a state! I really hate this place!”

Jiang Shi really wished she could destroy this place. If she did not have such a cousin like Jiang Feng, her family would still be in a difficult situation.
