The most ruthless person in the Demon Suppression Division

Chapter 113 Brother, how much did you embezzle?

Jing'an Hall, No. 30, Jiazi Courtyard.

Xu Ye returned immediately after leaving the Demon Suppression Division.

He no longer needed to worry about his sister's safety, but he wanted to tell Xu Zhizhi the good news of his promotion to White Robe as soon as possible.

Pushing open the door, I saw Xu Zhizhi tidying up the flowers and plants in the yard.

Hearing the voice, Xu Zhizhi looked up at Xu Ye and was overjoyed to see that it was Xu Ye who had returned.

"Brother, you're back?" Xu Zhizhi put down her tools and rushed to Xu Ye.

Xu Ye smiled and said, "I'm back now that the mission is complete."

"Have you gotten used to being alone while I was away?"

When Xu Zhizhi was still in the outer city, at least she had friends with her. Even when Xu Ye was on a mission, Xu Zhizhi was not bored.

But now that they've moved into Jing'an Hall, a place they don't know well, Xu Ye is worried that Xu Zhizhi won't be used to it.

"It's alright! I've made a lot of new friends here. They've been so warm and welcoming to me since they found out I'm my brother's sister. And there's Aunt Du from Uncle Du's family. She's so caring and often cooks for me. I'm much happier than when I was in the outer city." Upon hearing Xu Ye's words, Xu Zhizhi immediately started talking and recounted everything that had happened in the past few days.

Many people also live in this Jing'an Hall.

Most of them were family members of the white-robed demon-suppressing guards of the Demon Suppression Division.

Moreover, Xu Ye's reputation is currently at its peak.

When they learned that Xu Zhizhi was Xu Ye's sister, the families of the white-robed demon-suppressing guards all took good care of Xu Zhizhi.

In addition, Du Yuanxiu instructed his wife to take good care of Xu Zhizhi.

Therefore, Xu Zhizhi's life here is also very fulfilling.

Upon hearing Xu Zhizhi's words, Xu Ye's face immediately lit up with relief. "Good! As long as you're happy, I'm satisfied."

"That also depends on my brother's good reputation! Brother, you don't know, whenever I mention your name when I go out, people treat me like an honored guest. I never dared to dream of such a thing before." Xu Zhizhi said with a smile.

The fact that the older brother's name has a great influence means that the older brother has become very strong.

She was naturally pleased.

Xu Ye smiled, not saying much on the topic, but instead circling around and asking, "Have you noticed anything different about me today?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhizhi finally snapped out of her surprise at Xu Ye's return.

She stared at Xu Ye for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "White Robe! My God! Brother, you've been promoted to White Robe Demon Suppressor?"

"Hahaha! That's right, I just became a White Robe today and came back to tell you this good news as soon as possible. How about it? Isn't your brother amazing!" Xu Ye laughed heartily.

In front of Xu Zhizhi, he completely dropped all pretense.

Just like children in an ordinary family, the older brother showed off his achievements to his younger sister.

Xu Zhizhi immediately nodded vigorously, "You're amazing, brother! I knew you could do it. If Dad knew how amazing you are, he would be so happy for you."

For some reason, Xu Zhizhi always unconditionally believed in Xu Ye's abilities.

He felt that his brother was omnipotent.

Therefore, while she was happy about Xu Ye's promotion to White Robe, she also felt it was within her expectations.

In her imagination, it wouldn't be surprising if her brother were dressed in a golden robe.

"You little rascal." Seeing Xu Zhizhi's appearance, Xu Ye couldn't help but rub her head.

Xu Zhizhi immediately covered her head and said, "Brother! Don't rub your head, or you won't grow tall."

Xu Ye smiled, ignoring him completely, and continued to rub his hands a couple more times before saying, "There's no need to cook tomorrow. I've been promoted to White Robe today, and I promised everyone I'd treat them all. Let's go to a restaurant and have a good meal together."

"Okay!" Xu Zhizhi nodded in agreement immediately upon hearing this.

"You don't object?" Xu Ye was immediately surprised.

Xu Zhizhi has always been very careful with her money.

Now he plans to treat everyone at a restaurant, and this little girl actually agreed?

"It's a joyous occasion for my brother to be promoted to White Robe, so it's only right that we host a banquet. Why would I object?" Xu Zhizhi said with a smile.

She was never stingy when it came to spending money on her brother.

As Xu Zhizhi spoke, she rushed into her room, quickly came out with a money bag, and giggled as she walked:

"Brother, I have several dozen taels of silver saved up here. That should be enough for a meal at a restaurant, right?"

These are all saved for my brother's wedding.

However, since we need to use it for such a joyous occasion, we can only use it first and then save it later.

Seeing this, Xu Ye smiled, raised his hand to stop Xu Zhizhi, and then took out the seven hundred taels of silver notes from his pocket. "I don't need your money, your brother has money now!"

"Money is no object!"

Xu Ye put on the airs of a nouveau riche.

Xu Zhizhi was stunned for a moment before taking the silver note from Xu Ye's hand.

He glanced up and his eyes widened in shock. He exclaimed, "Seven hundred taels! My God! That much?"

Seven hundred taels of silver!

Such a large sum of money.

Xu Zhizhi had never seen so much money in her entire life.

How could she not be shocked?

She looked up at Xu Ye in disbelief, "Brother, where did you get so much money?"

"Of course, it was earned by your brother through his own abilities." Xu Ye loved seeing Xu Zhizhi's shocked expression.

This little girl should broaden her horizons a bit.

Xu Zhizhi gasped and asked, "Brother, just how much did you embezzle?"

It's no wonder Xu Zhizhi overthinks things.

Xu Ye had only been with the Demon Suppression Division for a month, and the Black-Robed Demon Suppression Guards received a monthly salary of only three taels of silver.

Xu Ye then directly produced seven hundred taels of silver notes.

This was completely beyond his imagination.

She still thought Xu Ye had embezzled money by taking advantage of his official position.

Xu Ye's face immediately darkened. "What do you mean by 'greedy'?"

How can this little girl talk like that?

Xu Zhizhi quickly said, "Brother! We're honest people, we'd rather die poor than be corrupt! The county government just executed a big corrupt official a few days ago, I even went to see it, you..."

"Stop, stop, stop..." Xu Ye stopped Xu Zhizhi from continuing, his face full of black lines.

What is this girl talking about?!

Seeing Xu Zhizhi stop, he then said, "This is a reward from the Demon Suppression Division after I completed my mission; it's absolutely clean."

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhizhi asked with some doubt, "Really?"

"Nonsense!" Xu Ye said speechlessly.

This little girl is overthinking things.

"That's good!" Xu Zhizhi immediately smiled excitedly.

Seven hundred taels of silver!

With so much money, after deducting necessary expenses...

That's more than enough for my brother to find a wife.

And you can take several more.

Soon, Xu Zhizhi carefully put away the silver notes.

Seeing this, Xu Ye couldn't help but say, "What a little money-grubber."

Xu Zhizhi patted the money bag and said, "I'm just saving it for my brother; he'll need it when he marries his sister-in-law."

Xu Ye was speechless. "Alright! You should worry about yourself! Now that you have money, why don't you find a private school to attend?"

Xu Zhizhi had previously studied at a small private school in the outer city.

But ever since her father's accident, the girl hasn't gone to save money.

Now, Xu Ye plans to have Xu Zhizhi fill in the gap.

After all, education should never be neglected, no matter how poor we are!
