Chapter 32 Gwen's House

As she spoke, Feng Qingwu reached for the money on the coffee table and handed it to Ai Lin.

But before she could pick it up, Erin pressed the $50,000 back onto the coffee table.

Seeing Feng Qingwu's eyes reddening but insisting on not taking her money, Ai Lin said in a deep voice, "Aunt Feng, you must keep this money. Even if you and Uncle Yuan are divorced, Xiao Nannan is still Uncle Yuan's only child. Besides, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about Xiao Nannan's future."

"The little girl is still young, and if she wants to receive a good education, there are many things that will cost money."

"Although the Federation advocates happy education, those who truly stand out are all elites who have been cultivated from an elite age."

"Aunt Feng, you don't want your little girl to end up like those people at the bottom of society, struggling in the Federation, do you?"

Pity the parents of the world.

Just as Ai Lin said, Feng Qingwu may not consider herself, but as a mother, she will definitely consider her daughter's future.

Feng Qingwu herself was a member of the federal underclass, and she was well aware of the hardships faced by people at the bottom of society. Therefore, she did not want her daughter to follow in her footsteps in the future.

In the Federation, the cost of cultivating a true social elite is considerable.

When Yuan Li was still alive.

Feng Qingwu still had a way out.

If all else fails, she can ask Yuan Li to contribute some money to cover her daughter's education expenses.

After all, Xiao Nannan is Yuan Li's daughter, so it's only natural for Yuan Li to pay for this.

But now, Yuan Li is dead.

Feng Qingwu was then forced to consider a harsh question.

Can she really earn that much money to raise her daughter?

The Federation is a very pragmatic country; without money, you can hardly move an inch.

Not to mention raising her daughter to be successful, Feng Qingwu could mistreat herself, but she didn't want to... mistreat her daughter.

Thinking about this...

Her resolve to pick up the $50,000 on the coffee table and return it to Erin diminished considerably.

Just like Erin said, she needs this money.

$50,000 is a considerable sum of money.

However, if she saves a little and adds the money she earns from her own work, it's barely enough to cover the expenses of raising her little girl.

Feeling the resistance in her hand weakening, Erin pressed her advantage, saying, "Aunt Feng, you know a little about my situation. Although my mother has passed away, she left me a considerable inheritance. This $50,000 is nothing to me, Aunt Feng, please keep it for now!"

"That way, I'll feel a little better..."

No matter how much you try to persuade them, they won't listen.

Ailin said a lot more before he could barely persuade Feng Qingwu.

Then, without giving Feng Qingwu a chance to back out, Ai Lin hurriedly opened the door, said goodbye, and left.

·······

"Bang!"

With a soft click, the door to room 304 was closed by Erin.

Inside the room.

Feng Qingwu stared blankly at the fifty thousand US dollars on the coffee table for a long time before suppressing her sobs and beginning to cry softly.

As soon as Erin stepped out of the Chinese apartment building, he heard a faint sobbing sound coming from above. With his sharp ears and eyes, he recognized it as Aunt Feng's voice.

He looked up at the Chinese apartment building, at a room on the third floor, and sighed inwardly.

"Why······"

Ai Lin's visit to Uncle Yuan's orphan was quite unexpected.

Aunt Feng, Uncle Yuan's ex-wife, is very kind, and Ai Lin can tell that she still has feelings for Uncle Yuan.

Her divorce from Uncle Yuan was probably just a way to force him to leave Zhongyitang.

But in the end, she failed.

No.

Uncle Yuan couldn't possibly be unaware of this, so why did he agree to divorce Aunt Feng?

Was it to sever ties with Aunt Feng and her daughter, to protect them? Or...?

Ailin shook his head, no longer thinking about the complicated relationship between Uncle Yuan and Aunt Feng.

Through this encounter, Erin discovered that although Aunt Feng was gentle, she was actually very opinionated and stubborn, otherwise she wouldn't have had such difficulty giving him that $50,000.

Given Aunt Feng's personality, unless she's in dire straits, she won't accept money from me next time, even if I wanted to.

In that case, how could Erin help the mother and daughter like that?

Wait a minute, I remember that gang members like Uncle Yuan usually buy a lot of accident insurance.

It seems the insurance company hasn't shown any involvement since Uncle Yuan's accident.

Otherwise, Aunt Feng would have known that Uncle Yuan was already dead.

We'll go and see what's going on then. If Uncle Yuan also has insurance, we can try to get some insurance compensation for Aunt Feng first.

I doubt Aunt Feng would refuse such insurance compensation.

Erin returned to Chinatown while pondering her thoughts.

After returning to Chinatown, Erin went to a bookstore and bought some books on hypnosis before returning to her three-story house on the edge of Chinatown.

Shortly after arriving home, Erin's phone rang.

The phone displayed an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a moment, Erin answered the call anyway.

As soon as the call connected, Gwen's voice rang in Erin's ears: "Is this Erin? This is Gwen Stacy."

"Um, Gwen, is there something you need on your call at this hour?" Erin asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing, just reminding you not to forget to come to my house for dinner tonight. My mother has already bought a huge amount of delicious ingredients, just waiting for you to come and enjoy them. Oh, by the way, do you have any dietary restrictions or anything that we need to be mindful of?"

"I don't have any dietary restrictions, so please feel free to eat whatever you like, Auntie."

"Really? My mom will be so happy. Oh, and remember to arrive before 6 p.m.!"

"I understand, I won't forget."

After hanging up the phone.

Erin shook his head helplessly.

Ok.

I almost forgot, I also need to have dinner at Gwen's house tonight. Hmm, hopefully nothing unexpected will happen!

Since transmigrating, Erin has found that she has never stopped.

These days are really busy.

After expressing his feelings...

Erin placed the ten newly purchased books on hypnosis in her bedroom.

Erin then began another round of learning.

·······

Time flies.

Night fell quickly.

Around 5:30, Erin successfully located the upscale apartment building where Gwen lived, based on the note Gwen had given her.

Gwen's home is in a luxury apartment building in the city center.

The security is quite good.

At least, Ailin, who wasn't a homeowner, was stopped by security guards as soon as he entered the building.

Gwen only took Erin away from the security guard after receiving Erin's call and came downstairs.
