Gu Huaijin listened, remained silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said to Gu Zhiqi, "Is money really that tight?"
Gu Zhiqi looked up at Gu Huaijin, without speaking, but her eyes clearly spelled out the words "money is tight."
Gu Huaijin slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, and said earnestly to Gu Zhiqi, "You're only seventeen, you should be focusing on your studies. If you need money, you can ask us. There's no need to work so hard."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi paused, and after a few seconds, said to Gu Huaijin, somewhat insincerely, "I enjoy the process of making money."
She did enjoy the process of making money, but if she could get the money effortlessly, of course, she would like that more.
However, the money needed for Chubby Chiu's upgrade was not something anyone could provide all at once.
She feared that if she spoke up, not only Gu Huaijin, but the entire Gu Family might go bankrupt.
Gu Huaijin: "..."
Forget it.
Gu Huaijin fell into a long silence.
