Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 817 - 806: The Honest Man Taken Advantage Of

After Ye Qiu left, Shen Huan finally opened the door, and Shen Xiu went over to hold him: "Xiao Huan, Mom knows you don’t like me marrying your Uncle Ye, but we have no choice now. Mom can’t support you on her own, so please don’t get so angry, okay?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Shen Huan pursed his lips, stubbornly saying: "What about Dad? I want Dad; only with Dad and Mom can we be a real family. I don’t want anyone else to be my dad."

Looking at his face, identical to that man’s, Shen Xiu couldn’t hold back the bitterness and heartache. If she had even a bit more ability, why would they need to live under someone else’s thumb?

"Your dad is now doing a very secretive job; because he is a great hero, he can’t be discovered by bad people. Once he drives them away, he’ll come to pick up our Xiao Huan."

"Really?" Shen Huan’s eyes sparkled.

"Really." Shen Xiu nodded affirmatively. She wasn’t lying because, in her heart, Xiao Ze has always been a great hero. If not for her, he wouldn’t have gone to prison; it’s her who owes him.

After comforting Shen Huan, Shen Xiu prepared to cook for the two of them. Only then did she realize Ye Qiu hadn’t given her a single yuan for living expenses. But surely there’s money kept somewhere in the house!

Yet, after searching the house inside and out, she didn’t find anything, making her somewhat angry. Clearly, they had already married, so why not give her the savings? Honest people are like this; they don’t consider things, never think ahead. Back when she was with Xiao Ze, wasn’t he always quick to appease her whenever she had the slightest displeasure?

Really, lacking emotional intelligence, does he need her to remind him to give her living expenses? How embarrassing would that be?

At this moment, Ye Qiu didn’t go straight to the research institute but visited a bank and then an orphanage.

Upon seeing him, the dean gave him a kind smile: "Ye, you’re here! Come in quickly, the kids miss you."

Ye Qiu also smiled warmly: "Mrs. Chen, this is for you."

"Five hundred thousand! Why so much?" Seeing the balance on the passbook, Dean Chen Mama showed a surprised smile.

"Xiao Xue’s surgery is coming up; I was thinking we shouldn’t owe the hospital any fees."

"But didn’t you already give twenty thousand last time? Why so much again? No, take this money back. You’ve just gotten married, and there’ll be many financial needs ahead! Don’t think I don’t know; this must be your last savings. We’ve already gathered the surgery fees for Xiao Xue’s operation, no need for you to contribute so much."

"After Xiao Xue’s surgery, she can’t be discharged immediately. Don’t we need to pay hospital fees? Professional nursing care isn’t free. Plus, Xiao Hao, it’s time for a better cochlear implant. If there’s any money left, buy the kids some nutritious food. Winter is approaching, and while there are donations for clothes, what about bedding? The air conditioning needs to be on; we can’t let the children freeze." Ye Qiu earnestly advised.

After hearing him, Dean Chen Mama hesitated. Indeed, with so many children, there’s no place money isn’t spent.

"But isn’t five hundred thousand too much? Your wife doesn’t mind?"

"She has no objections." Ye Qiu smiled warmly, without any sign of difference, "I made it clear to her before marriage, not only do we support Tongxin Orphanage, but I also sponsor several impoverished students. She supports all of this."

Hearing this, Dean Chen Mama showed a comforting smile: "That’s good, you’ve married a wonderful wife; make sure to treat her well in the future."

"I will." These two words from Ye Qiu’s mouth seemed faint, like they were scattered by the wind. Mrs. Chen couldn’t hear them clearly, but knowing Ye Qiu’s usual character, she knew he was a sincere, honest person who would definitely keep his word.

In the afternoon, Ye Qiu returned to the research institute, surprising his colleague Li Hao: "Just got married yesterday, and back to work today? Didn’t the dean give you a three-day leave?"

"I have a new idea I want to try." He said as he changed clothes and methodically took out reagents to begin the experiment.

"Hey?" Seeing him take out some reagents they rarely use, Li Hao got interested, "Want me to record your data?"

"I’d love that."

"Dish 2 has a reaction, and so does dish 3." Late at night, the institute was left with only the two of them, and Ye Qiu closed his eyes to rest while Li Hao exclaimed with delight.

"Ye Qiu, you’re truly a damn genius!"

Ye Qiu frowned: "Praise me if you must, but don’t use dirty words. Let me see."

As for the petri dishes’ response, he wasn’t surprised at all. Upon knowing this body belonged to a biological researcher, he chose the Medicine Manual skill. Anything selected by the system as a skill is special; the previous self was an orphan sponsored kindly to grow up and study, always passionate about society, so let him use this skill to benefit the world!

After achieving results with the petri dish, he immediately wrote a dissertation and submitted it, followed by a few days and nights without sleep, almost living in the research institute.

Shen Xiu had been waiting for Ye Qiu to return and raise the issue of living expenses, only to find he hadn’t come home for an entire month, leaving Shen Xiu, who had hoped for better days after marriage, full of resentment.

Ye Qiu wasn’t planning to go home, but Dean Chen mentioned that spending all his time in the institute right after getting married wasn’t suitable. Even if the research is at a critical point now, it’s important to spend time with his wife.

As the usual honest and diligent embodiment, he nodded in shame: "I’ve been neglectful."

Dean Chen comforted him: "You’re not totally at fault, after all, your work is for the country, for the society. I’m sure your wife will understand. By the way, your stepson seems five or six years old, is he in elementary school?"

"Just started first grade, I’ve arranged for him to attend a good school and transferred his enrollment."

Seeing his thorough arrangements, Dean Chen nodded approvingly: "You always handle things well, you’ve married her, so treat her kindly. The child might not be biological but people know gratitude."

Ye Qiu knew that Dean Chen was teaching him life principles, and he nodded gratefully. However, in his heart, he shook his head. Maybe others know gratitude, but not Shen Huan. In his past life, wasn’t he kind enough to Shen Huan, his stepson? And yet, he raised a white-eyed wolf.

In this life, he won’t invest his genuine emotions again; why should he be the bad guy when his own mother condoned him? As for whether Shen Huan would end up like his biological father and become a small thug with all sorts of bad habits, what does it have to do with him?

From caring tenderly to wasting countless efforts, in the end, he raised an enemy. Is this what blood ties mean?
