Chapter 425 - Eldest Uncle Giving Pocket Money

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Since Zi Yi said that she had connections, her uncles did not continue questioning.

Instead, Dou Jingning passed her a bank card and said, “Hold on to this card. After buying the medicinal ingredients, you don’t have to return it to me. Just consider it as pocket money that we are giving to you.”

Zi Yi looked at the card with a twinkle in her eye. Her lips slightly moved and she wanted to say that she was very rich already. However, when the words came up to her mouth, she changed her mind.

Not using the money was one matter, but the feeling of an elder giving her an allowance to spend felt pretty good.

Thinking of this, Zi Yi took the card and as she smiled her eyes became crescent moons. “Thank you, Eldest Uncle.”

Dou Jingning’s heart suddenly melted at her words and he felt that this decision of his was very well made.

He nodded his head and said, “You’re living outside alone and you need money for everything. There is no need to save it up.”

Dou Xiaoyong added, “Just buy whatever you like. You’re still young now and there’s no need for you to find a boyfriend right now.”

His words caused the younger generation in the family to look at them with a glimmer in their eyes as they knew that Zi Yi currently had a boyfriend.

Unexpectedly, Dou Jingning also said something, “Girls will only be respected by others if they know how to respect themselves. Wealth is all external belongings and remember you have us. You are also capable of earning money with your own hands and you shouldn’t casually use other people’s money, otherwise it’ll be easy to get yourself into trouble.”

In fact, it was because Zi Yi’s appearance was so outstanding that her uncles were afraid that she might get enticed and lose herself when rich people offered her money.

Zi Yi finally understood the meaning behind their words and said, “You can rest assured. I don’t care about anyone’s money.”

Dou Zerui who was standing at the side could not tolerate it any longer and said, “The daily revenue of Yiyi’s bar surpasses our whole family’s monthly income. Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Father, Fourth Uncle, what are you worried about?”

Dou Yue’er also added, “Also, Yiyi’s racing club will have a higher income when there is a racing competition.”

Her four uncles looked at her.

Zi Yi put away the bank card in her pocket before she nodded. “That’s right.”

Everyone was amused by her small actions.

Dou Muyang told her, “Yiyi, don’t worry. Eldest Uncle won’t take back the card he gave you.”

Dou Zerui teased her. “You’re so rich yourself and yet you still want your Eldest Uncle’s money. Aren’t you embarrassed?”

The moment Dou Zerui said that, Third Aunt knocked on his head.

She then said to Zi Yi, “Little Yi, don’t listen to Zerui. Since it has been given to you, you can use it at ease.”

Zi Yi revealed a sweet smile. “Okay.”

All of them chatted for some time and it was already quite late.

Zi Yi was about to go back but all the Dou Family members tried to ask her to stay.

However, Zi Yi said in all seriousness, “I have to go back and get in touch with my connections to find medicine for grandfather. If I can get it sooner, grandfather’s body would be able to recover earlier. What’s more, I’m sensitive to different beds.”

Zi Yi’s words had instantly blocked the words that they were about to say.

The original owner was indeed sensitive to beds and she would have insomnia when she was at a new place.

In the end, Dou Jingning said, “Yunhao, Zerui, the both of you shall send Little Zi back.”

Everyone then sent Zi Yi to the courtyard and she did not say anything. She thought that it was easy to prevent both of them from sending her back.

Dou Yunhao went to fetch the car, while Dou Zerui walked over to her and grinned in an irritating way. “Yiyi, if you don’t want us to send you home, you can stay here for the night.”

Zi Yi glanced at him.

Dou Zerui deliberately said in a sincere tone. “You’re a girl and everyone is worried about you going home. After you get married in the future, we won’t send you home anymore.”

Zi Yi: “…”

When Dou Zerui felt that she had no words to refute him, he was in a great mood.

Just then, Dou Yunhao just so happened to drive the car over. After they bid farewell to everyone, the both of them got in the car.

The car soon drove out the courtyard.

Zi Yi told Dou Yunhao where she had parked her car and the car drove out of the neighborhood and parked next to Zi Yi’s ostentatious racing car.

Dou Zerui looked at it and said, “Yiyi, why don’t you take this car while I’ll help you drive yours back?”

Zi Yi said to him in a serious tone, “You’re unable to drive my racing car.”

“Don’t underestimate me.” Dou Zerui did not believe her. “Even though I’ve never driven a racing car, I know that it can still drive at low speeds. I don’t believe I can’t even handle the lowest speed.”

“But this racing car of mine starts up at 0.001 seconds and the lowest speed is 350km/h.”

“…”

Dou Yunhao who was seated in the driver’s seat was amused by their conversation and he said, “Yiyi’s car can travel at such a fast speed. It seems like if we want to send you back, we’ll only be able to follow behind your car.”

Zi Yi nodded her head. “That’s right. So that’s why I said there’s no need for you to send me home.”

“Sending you home is a must and this is our task,” Dou Yunhao said, “Why don’t we do this, Zerui shall take Yiyi’s car while I’ll chase behind yours. I’ll then come over to Yiyi’s house to fetch you.”

Zi Yi tilted her head and asked Dou Zerui as her voice contained traces of provocation, “Do you dare to sit in my car? It runs a little fast, you might not be able to handle it.”

Dou Zerui directly opened the door and said, “Of course I dare. I don’t believe your car can compete with an airplane’s speed. What’s more, I’m alright with taking airplanes, so how could I be unable to handle your car?”

Zi Yi sent Dou Yunhao the exact location of her house and followed Dou Zerui, who was already next to her car, and walked over to her racing car. Both of them got in and Zi Yi looked at Dou Zerui who was wearing the seatbelt. “You better sit tight.”

Dou Zerui stared at her and leaned against the seat leisurely. “You can drive with confidence.”

Zi Yi looked away. She turned on the car and stepped on the accelerator.

VROOM…

Ten minutes later, Zi Yi parked the car at the edge of the road, only to see Dou Zerui crawling out of the passenger seat with a pale complexion. He went to find a trash can to vomit in.

Somehow Zi Yi felt guilty and glanced at her surroundings. They were somewhere remote with few passersby. However, there was a convenience shop.

She went to the shop to purchase a bottle of mineral water before she handed it to Dou Zerui who was weak from vomiting. “Have some water to cleanse your mouth.”

Dou Zerui had vomited so much he had vomited out bile. He hastily took the mineral water to gargle his mouth out before he drank two mouthfuls. Only then did he feel slightly better.

Zi Yi looked at the time and said to him, “Eldest Cousin would need at least 20 minutes before he would reach us. Why don’t we wait for him at my place?”

Dou Zerui refused to take Zi Yi’s car no matter what. “No, let’s wait. I need to rest.”

“But I want to go back and sleep. I still have many lessons tomorrow and if I were to sleep late, what if I am unable to concentrate in class tomorrow?”

“…”

“Why don’t you stay here and wait for Eldest Cousin? I’ll take my leave first.”

Dou Zerui said discontentedly, “If you leave, would that still be considered as us sending you back?”

“But I want to sleep.”

“…”

Zi Yi saw that he was speechless and simply got back in her car and said, “If I activate flight mode and take to the skies, I believe you won’t be worried anymore.”

Having said that, she really activated flight mode and sped away in a flash.

Dou Zerui: “…”

As soon as Zi Yi’s car flew out of Dou Zerui’s line of sight, she made a turn and headed to No.8 Hexi Road.
