Chapter 375 The Girlfriend Of My Brother

I started to get worked up. Surprisingly, my mother was not infuriated and sounded unusually patient. Even so, I had foreseen something similar would blurt out from her mouth before that.

“How much do you think I need to top up?” I cut to the chase.

Even though I could not resist disliking Steven’s girlfriend, it was pointless to say anything as the wedding date had already been fixed. Thus, I made up my mind to give him a hand. After all, I presumed they would not have to spend a lot since the wedding would be held back home. I believe it would be more than enough if I topped up with the money in my account.

“I think around seven hundred thousand,” my mother answered from the other side of the line.

The moment I heard the figure, I thought I was hearing things!

Dumbstruck, I raised my voice uncontrollably. “Seven hundred thousand? Mom, are you pulling my leg? What kind of luxurious wedding are you planning to hold for Steven? How is it possible for a simple wedding to cost around seven hundred thousand?”

By right, two hundred thousand was already more than enough to cover the expenses for a wedding in the village. It never came to my mind that my mother would request such a large sum.

“It’s not only for the expenses of the wedding. We need the money to buy a new car too,” she replied sheepishly. It seemed she felt she had requested a bit too much too.

“Money to buy a car? If the wedding costs one hundred thousand, do you need six hundred thousand just to buy a new car?” I questioned her right away.

My frown creased into a scowl as a surge of fury started to well up from within me. Whenever my mother requested me to support them financially, it was always a large sum. No doubt, I should be filial to her; yet, her request was way beyond my ability.
