Prosecutor vs. Minister: A Battle of Wits-Chapter 86 - 84: Being Deducted Pocket Money

"Sis..."

Jiang Zirui continued to lean against Jiang Tong’s legs, trying to act cute.

But she pushed him away with disdain, "Alright, alright, if you want to stay, just stay."

Her soft spot was completely dominated by Jiang Zirui.

She couldn’t stand it when others acted cute; her girlish heart just couldn’t take it.

"Sis, I really love you the most."

Jiang Zirui rubbed his hands excitedly, and almost clung onto Jiang Tong.

Although Jiang Tong looked full of disdain, she couldn’t hide the hint of affection in her eyes.

"By the way, why are you insisting on sticking around here instead of going home?" She lightly tapped his head and asked curiously.

Right now, their father was in charge of the Jiang Family; it shouldn’t be like the old days...

Thinking of the past, Jiang Tong’s eyes dimmed slightly, filled with heartache for Jiang Zirui.

Back when their grandfather was alive, he forcefully brought Jiang Zirui back to the Jiang Family upon learning about his existence.

But because he detested the impure bloodline of Jiang Family, he almost allowed everyone to bully him.

Jiang Zirui grew up in such a dark environment.

Back then, she was the only one who dared to protect him...

"Well, isn’t it because my mom kicked me out... Sis, what’s wrong?"

As he was halfway through speaking, Jiang Zirui leaned his head in front of her, and upon seeing her eyes moist, his face turned anxious.

"Sis, why are you crying? Am I making you uncomfortable here?" He carefully observed Jiang Tong’s expression, afraid of saying something wrong.

Jiang Tong took a deep breath and gently patted his shoulder, "I’m fine, just stay here well."

All she hoped for now was for Jiang Zirui to grow up safely under her protection.

She didn’t want him to get too involved in the family’s open and concealed struggles.

He was innocent enough...

"..."

In the midst of their conversation, Xia Qiao dragged herself wearily through the door.

"Please move aside and let me rest for a while."

She nudged Jiang Tong and collapsed lifelessly onto the edge of the sofa.

"Qiao’er, did you help someone move bricks today?" Jiang Tong couldn’t help but ask.

Why did she look half-dead?

Xia Qiao was so exhausted that she didn’t even have the energy to roll her eyes. "What do you know, my dad’s being transferred to another hospital, and I’ve been busy running up and down so many floors handling the paperwork."

"Your father’s being transferred to another hospital?"

"Yeah, his condition has improved, so he no longer needs to stay at the Beijing People’s Hospital."

Jiang Tong enthusiastically clapped her hands, "That’s really good news, congratulations!"

Xia Qiao leaned lazily against the sofa, kicking her feet forward, "Your congratulations lack any sincerity."

"Hmm? Why not? My applause was so loud!"

As she spoke, Jiang Tong clapped a few more loud claps.

"Don’t give me that fake stuff, since we’re happy today, shall we settle that Sea River Banquet you owe me later?"

Jiang Tong: "..."

Thanks, her happiness vanished instantly!

Thinking this, she clutched her little heart, pretending to twitch, "I’ve already had my bonus and pocket money deducted this month; how about we go next time?"

Hearing this, Jiang Zirui, standing next to her, twitched his mouth speechlessly.

Deducted pocket money?

Even if his allowance was cut, mom and dad would still not cut his sister’s allowance.

Who would’ve thought that the prestigious young master of the Jiang Family had just 235,080.1 yuan in his account.

He was the one truly having his pocket money deducted, alright!
