"You know, brother..."
Himemiya Rie ignored Dongchuan Tetsu's sarcasm, opened and closed her red lips, and said quietly in a cold voice,
"I never considered you an outsider."
"It was like this before, and it will be like this in the future..."
"is it?"
Dongchuan Che had no expression on his face:
"But so what?"
"elder brother--"
Himemiya Rie mustered up her courage:
"I know my sister and mom were wrong and shouldn't have treated you like that, but...my sister and mom are very good to me. I have no right, and I shouldn't, to blame them."
"so what?"
"what do you want to say?"
"To comfort Aunt Himiya and your sister?"
Dongchuan Che didn't even raise his eyes.
"I didn't mean that."
Himemiya Rie took a deep breath:
"Wrong is wrong."
"I never meant to exonerate my mother and sister."
"Then what do you mean?"
"..."
Himemiya Rie stopped talking.
He just silently took out a wallet from his bag and handed it to Dongchuan Che.
"...???"
"what do you mean?"
Dongchuan Che looked at his former "sister" in front of him and felt a little confused for a moment.
"This is the money I earned from my part-time job..."
Himemiya Rie bit her red lips, and mist formed in her beautiful icy blue eyes:
"I know life is not easy for you, brother. Please accept this money as..."
"I'm giving you compensation on behalf of my mother and sister..."
The wallet is open.
There was a thick stack of banknotes inside.
Dongchuan Che took a quick glance.
There are about 200,000 yen in it, which is almost 10,000 RMB.
For a high school girl who just turned 18, this is a lot of money.
No, even for a college student and social figure like Toru Fuyukawa, this is still a considerable amount of money.
Many people may not be able to come up with this much money a year after graduating from college.
Not to mention a high school girl like Himemiya Rie.
"Where did you get all this money?"
Dongchuan Che looked at his "sister" with some confusion.
"You can't earn this much from a normal part-time job, right?"
In Japan, high school students aged 18 or above are allowed to work part-time to earn money in addition to their studies.
However, strict restrictions were added.
For example--
合法情况下,每周不超过28小时,且禁止在22:00至次日5:00时段工作。
You are not allowed to work in entertainment industries (such as bars and nightclubs), gambling venues (such as game halls) or illegal work.
In addition, the consent of three parties is required.
The so-called three-party consent requires that three conditions be met at the same time: 1. Written consent from the guardian; 2. Providing proof of age to the employer; 3. Obtaining approval from the school.
As for Himemiya Rie, if Toru Fuyukawa remembered correctly, she had only been 18 for a few months, right?
Even though it was April, her school had just finished its two-week spring break, and she could have used the break to take more time to work and save money.
But it’s impossible to save so much money in such a short time, right?
I forgot to mention that even high school students can work eight hours during holidays.
But even so, the actual working time she had during this period of her adult life was still very short.
Even if we calculate based on the common hourly wage of 1400 yen/h in Tokyo, it is absolutely impossible to save that much.
Not to mention, as a high school girl, she usually doesn't get such a high hourly wage.
And this is the best-case scenario.
In fact, if she wants to meet the three conditions mentioned above, she still needs to spend a lot of time.
It is impossible to go out to work and earn money as soon as you turn 18.
In addition, although the woman named Himemiya Momono was not very nice to Toru Fuyukawa, she was still very good to her two daughters.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like he is willing to let his precious daughter go out to work.
He really couldn't imagine how Himemiya Rie had persuaded Himemiya Momono to agree to let her go out to work.
Thinking of this, Dongchuan Che couldn't help but ask the blue-haired girl:
"Well, I'm saying... you didn't steal Aunt Himimiya's money, did you?"
"No, I wouldn't do that kind of thing."
Facing Dongchuan Che's questioning, the girl denied it in a firm tone.
I don’t know if it was Dongchuan Che’s illusion.
I always feel that after he said this, Himemiya Rie glared at him angrily.
To be honest, such scenes are quite rare.
In his memory, his "sister" rarely got angry and rarely had emotional fluctuations.
She is like an exquisite doll, cold, beautiful, and lacking the vitality of a young high school girl.
"So, you lived frugally and saved the living allowance Aunt Ji Gong gave you?"
The more Dongchuan Che thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility.
The vicious woman Himemiya Momono had a high salary and took possession of the "Fuyukawa House" through dishonorable means, saving a lot of expenses.
Therefore, although she was not very nice to Dongchuan Che and gave him very little pocket money every month before he graduated, she was not stingy at all with her two daughters.
His monthly pocket money is several times more than Dongchuan Che's.
In this regard, she explained to Dongchuan Che that she raised the son in poverty and the daughter in wealth. She was doing him a good thing and establishing a correct concept of money for him, so that he would not go astray when he entered the society in the future.
In short, let’s stop talking nonsense.
Now that Toru Fuyukawa has moved out and become independent, Himemiya Momono no longer has to spend money on him, and she has saved some money.
In addition, Dongchuan Che would give her one-third of his salary every month.
Under such circumstances, the monthly pocket money she gives to her two precious daughters will probably only be more, not less.
If you think about it this way, it makes sense that Himemiya Rie, a high school girl who had just reached adulthood, could come up with so much money at once.
"..."
This time, Himemiya Rie did not deny it outright.
Just said in a cool and sweet voice:
“I also earned a lot of money working.”
"That means there is, right?"
"Ah."
The girl nodded slightly.
Then, he handed the wallet in his hand closer, almost stuffing it directly into Dongchuan Che's hand.
"Brother, please keep this money first. I will give you money every month in the future."
After saying these words, the girl looked over Dongchuan Che's shoulder and took a look at the environment in the room.
"..."
A rare flash of heartache flashed across her beautiful ice-blue eyes, which rarely showed any emotion.
The girl whispered:
"With this money, my brother can move to a better environment and won't have to...work so hard anymore..."
"..."
Looking at the wallet lying quietly in the girl's snow-white palm, Dongchuan Che took a deep breath, his emotions a little complicated for a moment.
After thinking for a moment, he opened his mouth and rejected the kindness of his former "sister":
"Take it back. I can't accept this money."
"……Why?"
The mist in the girl's beautiful ice-blue eyes grew thicker, and her clear and cold voice trembled a little:
"Brother... do you hate me too?"
"You're so annoying that you won't even give me a chance to make it up to you...?"
"Not taking your money has nothing to do with whether I dislike you or not."
Dongchuan Che searched his memory and continued:
"Besides, you haven't done anything to me before that requires compensation, so why should I take your money?"
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and this matter has nothing to do with you."
In memory, Himemiya Rie, a beautiful girl who was like an emotionless doll, had never done anything excessive to the original body.
Sometimes it even helps.
Therefore, after comprehensive settlement, Dongchuan Che felt that the "sister" in front of him did not owe him anything and there was no need to compensate him in this way.
Of course, he didn't owe her anything either.
After all, even if she hadn't done anything excessive to him, it was a fact that she was living in the house that should have belonged to Dongchuan Che.
It is unlikely that Dongchuan Che will be grateful to her for her previous help.
One positive and one negative, the relationship between the two was evened out.
Then don't get involved anymore.
Otherwise, he would feel embarrassed when he takes revenge on her sister and mother.
Thinking of this, Dongchuan Che added another sentence based on what he just said:
"I don't want anything to do with you either."
"Please go back, Miss Himimiya."
Dongchuan Che sighed and looked at the blue-haired beautiful girl in front of him:
"I'm not in the mood to talk to you any more."
