“When? Didn’t you spend all your savings when you bought the car?” Shen Hui was shocked. She had heard that the legal fees were paid according to the percentage of the amount involved. She had quite a lot for the demolition money, so the legal fees must be high as well.
Jing Heng didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he entered the back room and came out with a card in his hand. “Here you are.”
“What’s this?” Shen Hui raised her eyes and looked at Jing Heng in confusion. What did he mean by giving her a card all of a sudden?
Jing Heng handed the card in his hand to Shen Hui. “Here’s my salary card.”
“I don’t want it,” Shen Hui quickly refused.
Jing Heng raised his eyebrows as if he hadn’t expected Shen Hui to give such an answer.
“We’ve said before that regardless of how much we make, the money we earn belongs to ourselves. Therefore, I can’t take your salary card. Keep it yourself. When you are outside, you’ll definitely need to spend money.” Shen Hui shook her head again, she forced herself to resist Jing Heng’s burning gaze and didn’t take the card in Jing Heng’s hand.
“Take it if I tell you to. We’re already married, so I have the obligation to support my family. Although it’s not much, it should be enough to cover the expenses at home.” Jing Heng handed the card directly to Shen Hui. This time, he was very forceful.
Shen Hui had no choice but to put the card away. “Okay, then I’ll help you to keep it first. I’ll inform you where I spend it when the time comes.”
“No need. I’m giving it to you for you to spend it. There’s no need to be so calculative between the two of us.” Jing Heng didn’t think much of it.
When Shen Hui saw how rich and ostentatious Jing Heng appeared to be, she propped up her chin and looked at Jing Heng curiously. “Jing Heng, why do I feel that you’re like a rich young master who’s left behind by a big family? You seem to be rich and ostentatious no matter what you do.”
Jing Heng’s body stiffened. “You’re thinking too much. It’s just that I have less to spend on. I’ve saved all my money in the past, and now that we’re married, I really don’t want to be called a gigolo by others.”
“Don’t mind what my cousin said today. That’s how she is. She doesn’t have any morals when she speaks. Don’t ever take her words to heart. She’s a gluttonous and lazy person at home. Since she was young, she liked to snatch everything from me. If she can’t get it, she’d rather destroy it. So don’t ever care about what she said.”
Shen Hui finally realized that what Shen Rou said yesterday must have provoked Jing Heng. That was why Jing Heng had given her his salary card to prove that he wasn’t with her because of her money.
“Don’t worry, I don’t care. As long as you know what kind of person I am.” Jing Heng saw that he had successfully deflected Shen Hui’s thoughts, and he instantly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
“Oh right, I see that you like to watch those financial news. Why don’t I sign you up for a class to learn some things? There are many adult colleges and night schools these days. Let’s take it slow and improve slowly.” Shen Hui suddenly thought of an advertisement that popped up on her phone today, it was just right for the current Jing Heng.
Jing Heng was actually very smart. As long as he put in the effort, his academic qualifications wouldn’t be a problem.
“What? Do you dislike my low education background?” A hint of displeasure flashed in Jing Heng’s eyes.
Seeing that Jing Heng misunderstood, Shen Hui hurriedly spoke up, “No, I don’t mean it that way. I just feel that it’s still not too late to study anything now. Moreover, you like reading the financial news very much. There’s no need to work so hard on the construction site, being covered by dust every day..”
