CHAPTER 63: CHAPTER 63: ARE THERE MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SURNAME JING?
Jing Luozhou wouldn’t dare let his brother drive him, so he slipped away quickly.
Shi Su lowered her head to look at the check on the coffee table, her gaze slowly turning towards the man calmly drinking tea on the sofa.
The air seemed to stagnate in this silence, until Shi Su broke it with a sudden scolding: "Why are you drinking tea when you’re not healed?"
The teacup was abruptly snatched away by her outstretched hand, and Jing Jihan turned to look at her with a surprised expression of someone who had just helped and now found himself discarded.
Shi Su picked up both teacups, not leaving any for him, and said while walking to the kitchen, "I just put them out for show. If you want to drink, wait until you are completely healed. Who knows if tea might affect the healing of your injury? You can’t just drink any tea!"
Jing Jihan: "...It’s pre-rain Longjing. The tea’s flavor is mild and won’t have any impact."
Shi Su dumped the tea in the kitchen and washed the cups clean, then said upon returning, "You can smell what kind of tea it is without taking a sip, but this amnesia merely made you forget who you are, right? Then can you help me take another look at the check to see if it’s real or fake? Was that kid genuinely stupid or just fooling me?"
How could a check from the Jing Family possibly be fake?
Jing Jihan glanced indifferently at the coffee table: "It’s real."
Did he really determine its authenticity with just such a distant and cursory look?
How many checks has he seen to not need a closer inspection?
Shi Su walked over, picked it up, and flipped it around to check it, seeing just the bank name, the numbers on the check, and the valid seal at the bottom right. When she looked at the signature spot, the name Jing Luozhou was scrawled messily. Although the calligraphy was beautiful, it was unclear which specific characters they were, only the first character Jing and the last character Zhou were roughly discernible.
She still doubted the authenticity of the check. She’d have to go to the bank later to confirm it.
She believes in sudden fools and sudden wealth, but this was too easy. That kid signed without saying a word, made no conditions, and left without looking back.
But this Jing... something Zhou...
She murmured in doubt: "Are there many people with the surname Jing in Jiang City?"
Naturally, no one responded to her.
Jing Jihan seemed not to hear her, got up, and went to the kitchen to brew tea for himself.

After escaping from Shi Su’s place, Jing Luozhou stared at his phone. He had called Jing Jihan and texted him to ask what was going on, but Jing Jihan wouldn’t reply.
After a while, he tried calling again, but was met with the cold, indifferent voice of a woman on the phone: "Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..."
Shit!
Jing Jihan blocked him!
He actually blocked him?
Why? Why?
Was Jing Jihan jealous?
Couldn’t be, right?
His brother is already so invested in that flirty beauty... ugh, ugh, ugh, so invested in his sister-in-law, just got charmed a little and he’s jealous?
Jing Luozhou hurriedly sent another message from his backup phone: [Bro?]
Without receiving a reply, after a few minutes he sent another message, but the system showed the message failed to send as the recipient did not accept.
Blocked again...
Jing Luozhou momentarily felt like dying.
He had offended Jing Jihan!
To ensure he could still live comfortably after offending his brother, he really had to go find something to do at Jiang Jing Ru Hua. Otherwise, he might end up starving...
