Chapter 101: Even Gu Dongxing Cannot Bully You
Cheng Jiuhe felt very helpless: There wasn’t that much money at home.
No, even if there were, he couldn’t get it. The financial power at home was all in the hands of his stepmother. Yes, just like Gu Dongxing, his father had also remarried. The difference was that Gu Dongxing’s mother was still alive, but his own mother had passed away.
It was precisely because of their shared plight that the two of them were as close as brothers. "Brother Cheng, how much can a Yuan Nourishing Pill sell for?"
"It used to be around fifty thousand Yuan per pill, but now the medicinal materials are harder to find. I estimate it could sell for eighty to a hundred thousand yuan each," said Cheng Jiuhe.
Mengyu was startled in her heart. The Yuan Nourishing Pill was that expensive?
She had thought it would at most sell for fifty thousand.
"Brother Cheng, selling two Yuan Nourishing Pills is enough, the other two are for you. Consider them as my gift for our first meeting!"
Mengyu knew that some people couldn’t wait for her to die and had even succeeded in killing her in her previous life, which showed how dangerous her situation was.
She couldn’t warn him about anything, but allowing him to improve his own power should enable him to better avoid those conspiracies and schemes.
Cheng Jiuhe was deeply moved upon hearing that two Yuan Nourishing Pills were given to him. The gift was too precious; he couldn’t accept it, yet he couldn’t bear to refuse it either.
He reached out his hand and touched Mengyu’s hair: "Xiao Meng, thank you for your trust. From today on, you are my, Cheng Jiuhe’s, little sister. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, come to me."
Mengyu’s heart stirred: "What if Gu Dongxing bullies me?"
Cheng Jiuhe didn’t hesitate to say, "Even Gu Dongxing cannot bully you!"
A proud smile appeared on his face: "Heh, from now on, I can call myself Gu Dongxing’s uncle. Let’s see if he dares to act like the Boss in front of me?"
Mengyu couldn’t help but roll her eyes: I haven’t even agreed to be his wife yet.
Actually, she felt a sense of kinship upon meeting Cheng Jiuhe. Moreover, having experienced her past life, she knew he was a good person, someone worthy of trust. She was happy to acknowledge Cheng Jiuhe as her brother.
Although she had been reborn, the ties with her family were still weak.
There’s no need to mention Father Jiang and Madam Jiang; whether in her past life or this one, they were her enemies rather than her kin.
Her mother from her previous life had acknowledged Jiang Huaiyu as her daughter. Although she recognized her birth mother in this life, her mother was solely devoted to her master and cared less for her, her own daughter, than for her master.
As for her biological father, Lin Hai, for some reason, she just couldn’t feel close to him.
But then again, anyone who was sold by their biological father right after birth could hardly feel close to him.
After going with her mother, watching her divorce him, she didn’t even exchange a greeting with him, let alone acknowledge him as her father.
As for sibling affection, it was even weaker.
In her adoptive parents’ home, Jiang Huaiyu would only ever be her enemy, and Jiang Huaiqing, since he was a child, had only treated her as a servant, and she never considered him a brother.
And her birth mother only had her.
Therefore, in this life, she still lacked family by her side.
But now, she finally had a brother!
Although she only gained this brother after giving away the Yuan Nourishing Pills, she could see the sincerity in her brother’s eyes.
"That’s wonderful, now I also have a brother to cherish me. Brother, thank you, thank you for letting me have a brother!"
She really wanted to jump up and shout a few times to express the joy in her heart.
Cheng Jiuhe could see that Mengyu was genuinely happy to acknowledge him as her brother. He was also very happy inside, feeling that the sky today was exceptionally blue, and the air was especially good.
He was again thankful to Gu Dongxing for letting him take care of Xiao Meng, which gave him the chance to gain a good little sister so easily.
