Translator: Henyee Translations    Editor: Henyee Translations

Emilys mother wiped her tears. “Sigh, this is how poor people are. How can we expect those rich people to really think highly of us? Forget it, let’s work hard for the rest of our lives and return it to them. Who asked me to be useless? I’m already very satisfied that you can live well now.”

Emilys mother hugged Emily, and the two of them burst into tears.

Helena led Max to the neighborhood where Emily lived. It wasn’t a high-end neighborhood, but it was out of the city village. It was an old neighborhood, the kind that needed stairs.

“Mia, stay in the car. Mommy will keep an eye out for you.” Helena patted Amelia. Amelia nodded cutely. “Okay!’

Elmer stared at the building in front of him and felt a little strange. This neighborhood was old, but this building was gloomy. Traces of Yin energy kept floating over.

Elmer: “I’ll check it out, Helena. Don’t do anything rash.”

Helena: “Don’t worry, don’t you trust me?”

Elmer: “…” He really didn’t trust her!

After Elmer left, Helena immediately floated upstairs with the unlucky Max. “Let’s go, brother. I’ll take you out to play.”

Max: “Big sister, don’t harm me!”

Helena: “How can that be? Am I that kind of ghost?”

Max looked at Helena with an expression that said, You are.

At this moment, a curly-haired woman who looked like the landlord knocked on Emilys door. Soon, Emily’s mother came to open the door and saw the landlord bending down and smiling apologetically. “Landlord, you’re here. Come in and sit. We were just about to eat.”

The landlady was about to refuse when Emily’s mother Dulled her in. In the end, she saw that there was only a plate of vegetables on the dining table and a small bowl of pork ribs soup in front of Emily. She looked quite miserable. Emilys voice was very weak. “Landlady Auntie, you’re here…”

The landlord said, “Are you guys eating? Haven’t you just recovered? Why are you eating so little?”

Emily’s mother smiled bitterly. “It’s all my fault for not being able to earn money. The doctor said that Emily’s body needs to be nutritious, but I…” As she spoke, she wiped her tears.

Emily said, “Mom, what are you doing? Landlady auntie, is it time to collect rent today?”

Emily’s mother said quickly, “Yes, yes, yes. I forgot. I’ll get the money now.” She took out her purse and rummaged around. She came up with a hundred dollars.

Just then, Emily’s father returned. When he saw the landlord coming to collect the rent, he silently searched his pockets and took out 200 yuan.

Emily’s mother smiled bitterly. “Landlord, I’m really sorry. Why don’t I give you 300 first…”

Emilys tears also flowed. “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault for dragging you guys down. I won’t take the exemption medicine next month…”

Emily’s mother tugged at the corner of her shirt, looking uneasy. Emily’s father squatted at the foot of the wall and smoked without a word.

The landlord was speechless. This family had already owed her rent for several months, and she was the one who paid the utility bills. She knew that Emily was a patient who had just had a bone marrow transplant. How could she dare to ask her to stop taking medicine and pay the rent? If anything happened, wouldn’t she be the one forcing them to their deaths?

“Forget it, forget it…” The landlord could only admit that she was unlucky and treat it as accumulating good deeds.

Emily, however, looked determined. “No, I’ll go and find if I have any more money. We owe too much rent…” She picked up her purse and dug around, pulling out ten dollars.

The landlord:

Helena narrowed her eyes and saw that Emily’s purse was bulging. She kept digging around in it, refusing to open the compartment.

Helena: “Max, you go!’

Max was speechless. So he was a tool ghost. He was lying on Emily’s head. Emily, who was taking out money, took out another coin. At this moment, the rubber band on her wrist that was used to tie her hair suddenly accidentally hooked the zipper of the wallet compartment. With a whoosh, before she could react, the stack of money in the compartment fell out!

Emily was flustered!

Everyone was stunned. Even Emily’s parents did not expect Emily to have so much money. Emily had no choice but to pretend to be shocked. “Ah… this money, how did this money come about? Ah, I know! Yesterday, when I went to the hospital for a checkup, an auntie insisted on pulling me.. She must have secretly given it to me…”
