Chapter 1499: Chapter 1501 How to Answer

Meanwhile, he also reminded himself to be more careful when speaking in the future.

Upon hearing that Meng Xinian had been the one paying for the house, Chen Kaijin believed it even more.

She also felt that it was impossible for Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao to earn that much money.

But what about Chiang Xiao?

"However, Dad, I heard that Chiang Xiao is now quite a famous painter, and one of her paintings can sell for a lot of money, right?"

Chiang Yuequn quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, I heard that one painting can sell for thousands or even tens of thousands. Xiaoxiao is really a little rich girl now, right, Second Uncle?"

They all envied Chiang Xiao’s money-making capability.

Unfortunately, that income belonged to Chiang Xiao, and unlike business ventures, unless Chiang Songhai got involved, they couldn’t claim it as a family business to dip their hands into.

That’s about painting, clearly something Chiang Xiao did by herself—what help could Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao provide?

Thus, no matter how much that income was, they couldn’t get their hands on it at the moment.

Especially since Chiang Xiao seemed rather difficult to deal with.

So even Chen Kaijin, upon knowing about this, didn’t entertain any thoughts about it.

However, regarding the house, they were totally keen on plotting!

Chiang Songhai quickly said, "Xiaoxiao’s paintings do sell for a lot of money, but that’s her own earnings. Plus, those paints they use are very expensive, I haven’t really asked how much money she has saved."

He now really didn’t hesitate to push the issue onto Xiaoxiao. These were open and aboveboard earnings. She was already famous now; as long as they didn’t delve into how she painted when she was younger, passing the issue onto her, he believed Xiaoxiao would be able to handle it.

"I know," Chen Kaijin smiled and said, "Dad, listen to you talk. I’m just her aunt, how could I possibly think about going after Chiang Xiao’s money? What I mean is, with all the money Chiang Xiao has earned, shouldn’t she have been able to pay off the money for the house already? Hasn’t she paid?"

Chiang Songhai was taken aback.

Yes, with so much money, why does Xiaoxiao still owe that ten thousand?

What should he say?

He was at a loss for words here.

Just then, Ge Liutao loudly said, "Uncle Hai, we can’t find Xinian. The army people said he left half an hour ago; do you think he could have..."

Half an hour ago, after hanging up the phone, Meng Xinian suddenly realized that he could not stay beside Chiang Xiaoxiao, but he could spend a night in their family home in the city, where the bed still held her scent.

Consoling himself this way was better than nothing.

Thus, he immediately left the barracks and headed straight for the city.

Upon arrival, he was about to knock on the door but found the courtyard door unlocked. He paused, then pushed open the door and walked in, only to overhear the conversation in the living room.

He discovered that after entering Chiang Xiaoxiao’s space and drinking that Spiritual Spring Water, his hearing had improved a lot, allowing him to clearly hear the conversation in the living room.

He missed most of the earlier part but heard them asking about how much Chiang Xiaoxiao’s paintings could sell for.

He wanted to listen more to figure out what was going on but hadn’t heard Chiang Songhai’s reply for a while, instantly knowing he had been asked something he couldn’t answer.

And the words Ge Liutao said made him suspect they would call him because they encountered something they couldn’t handle and wanted him to come quickly.

Therefore, as soon as Ge Liutao finished speaking, he immediately stepped inside and said, "Grandma, were you looking for me?"
