Trembling as she looked at Suo Jia, Wen Ya suddenly realized the problem was no longer how she could repay him. In reality, right now she should be toiling over how to get Suo Jia to serve her for the rest of her life so that he could help her maintain her appearance. If Suo Jia ignored her, she would be completely doomed!
While thinking this, Wen Ya eagerly said: “Suo Jia, on account of us being friends, help me. That is what is called helping a person to the end. You can’t just shake me off and ignore me after giving me such a beautiful world.”
Suo Jia said without paying much mind to Wen Ya’s request, “No problem. Even if you did not request this of me, I would not have just left like that. From now on, I will help you touch up once a month and I will make sure you maintain this beautiful appearance for the rest of your life.”
Wen Ya had not expected that Suo Jia would so easily agree. She knew that Suo Jia could demand an exorbitant price for continuing the constant maintenance of her beauty; she would have been willing to pay any price. However, Suo Jia did not want anything in return. This naturally made Wen Ya feel that she really owed Suo Jia way too much.
Originally, it was only because she was in a good mood that she had casually said a word in Suo Jia’s defense. Now she felt that she had really received too much; moreover, in the unboundless future she would constantly remain in deficit. This was a horrible feeling!
After mulling over this for a long period of time, Wen Ya looked at Suo Jia with a serious expression. “Since you so happily agreed to help me, then I cannot be narrow-minded. I will not give you money, power, status, or anything like that. I believe that with your own ability, you will have the opportunity to become a Grand Duke, or even a Prince!”
“Nn!” Hearing Wen Ya’s words, Suo Jia’s eyes lit up with sharp radiance. “That’s right, there are many things that lose meaning when received from another person. Only by using your own ability to struggle for it will it be most precious. A person cannot spend his whole life looking at only results, the process is the most important!”
Looking at Suo Jia with admiration, Wen Ya nodded. “Therefore, Sister will not give you these things. How about this, I have a villa under my name in the city. I’ll just give it to you!”
After hearing Wen Ya’s words, Suo Jia was prepared to decline her offer. Just then, Wen Ya interrupted him. “Don’t reject me. Even if you don’t consider it for your own sake, shouldn’t you consider it for your mother’s sake? Her body is not well, and is unable to live in that narrow, dark, damp, and chilly house for long!”
Hearing Wen Ya’s words, Suo Jia slowly closed his mouth. It was true. He could endure any amount of suffering with no problem, but it was unacceptable for him to let his mother suffer continuously with him.
Looking at Suo Jia with appreciation, Wen Ya smiled and continued. “Tomorrow, I will bring you to the villa. Moreover, I’ll invite the best doctors to help look at your mother’s illness!”
“Thank you, thank you so much….” Seeing Wen Ya acting for his sake, Suo Jia was moved.
Seeing the teary Suo Jia, Wen Ya’s heart went warm. If she really had a younger brother like him, it would have been nice. However, even though Suo Jia was not her real brother, her feelings towards Suo Jia were even more intimate than those towards a brother related to her by blood.
Gently embracing Suo Jia, Wen Ya could not help but think of how her father had once told her that in this world, everything was exchanged. Friends, a wife and children, even a relative’s feelings, are all the same; if you treat someone well, then the other person will treat you well in return.
Wen Ya’s moment of kindness had been exchanged for Suo Jia’s generous reciprocation, which was once again exchanged for Wen Ya’s friendship. Even though these exchanges were not necessarily equivalent to each other, why was it necessary to calculate it closely? What was gained and what was lost, why was it necessary to count how much there was? Sometimes, being at a disadvantage could be an advantage.
Seeing Suo Jia currently in her embrace, Wen Ya suddenly had a premonition. This cute younger brother of hers would definitely not be simple in any way in the future. If that was so, then she wanted to properly witness exactly how Suo Jia would grow into a mighty figure!
