I knew this would have an end. My sister-in-law must have complained and her husband will come to repay me. The next day Chen Xin came to me at the house during the day while Mama was away.
"What did you tell my wife?" He was shaking his waist in front of me.
"I'm telling the truth. He used Mama's money for his foya-foya. If you want to buy your own wife using your own money do not beg for mama's money continuously. Shameless. What did you send him for? Rip me off? Or insult me to leave? She wears Birkin to Manolo, Cartier to Givenchy, are you proud to dress her up with Mama's money you squeezed? Embarrassing, I've lived for myself for 15 years, you're 33 years old begging your wife's pocket money to Mama?"
"Then what's your business with what I dress my wife, it's my mother's money that will inherit it as well as me."
"You better tighten your belt from now on dear sister, you don't hear what's being said Then yesterday, she won't give you another dime. Just sell your wife Birkin if you're short on money."
"You better be careful with your words."
"Why Bao Bei, do you think you're a favorite son heh? I assure you Mama doesn't give you money for foya-foya anymore Bao Bei is shameless. You didn't hear his words yesterday." I call him baby darling, he's furious now. His hands slapped me. But this Bao Bei is no match for me, I caught his hand with a refrek then twisted it and made him feel pain.
"Bao Bei, can you hit huh? Dare you hit women, besides beggars you're also a coward you seem to."
"Of damn*an you!"
"Dear sister, do you dare to play? That damn you."
"Please ba*ngsat!" I twisted her hand so much that she complained of pain.
"You loose? Ask for true forgiveness Bao Bei,.."
"Deliver!" He wanted to escape but he couldn't resist my strength.
"What?" I pretended I didn't hear him weak base let go of twists just can't. After a while he knew there was no point in fighting me.
"Son, I'm wrong, please let go."
"I didn't hear it it looks like you're not sincerely apologizing."
"Sister, I was wrong. I'm sorry."
"Ohhh so. Didn't you just slap me Bao Bei?"
"I'm wrong Brother I won't do it again. I'm sorry." I finally let go of his hand, he looked at me with great reckoning now.
"Bao Bei, you see, you get the money from now on. Dare to flirt with me you won't impress me."
He backed off and left now. I wonder who he's going to complain to tomorrow maybe to his father.

"Darling, how you're doing there, you're not bored there, you've been there for a week. When did you get back to Hong Kong? You're not going back to Jakarta...Shanghai's not that far from Hong Kong." Oliver asked me about my decision.
"I was asking my friends and waiting for news of a job in Hong Kong. I'm tangent now..."
"On that matter, you know sweetheart yesterday I went to Brother Shim's restaurant, the restaurant was crowded, I asked if he wanted to open a new one , do you want to take care of a restaurant here?"
"You want to change me, I have savings but not too big."
"No, it's my money, let's just say we have a second financial source. Rather than you working a physical job, you better invest in a restaurant."
"Dear you're sure about this? We've just become lovers"
"I want to be with you, you have to work in Hong Kong, I also know you don't want to work with Kent, and I don't want you to work under that bang*sat, anyway, you have to realize that you're not young anymore either, until when you can use your physical skills, so it's better that I take that path after I see that opportunity. But you're running well with Brother Shim. How about you meet Brother Shim and talk about it further."
He had thought of it so far. I don't know what to say, it seems that he's serious about our relationship...
"Originally you're here with me." I never thought he would be this kind and careful.
"How's your Mama doing there?" He changed the subject. I told you what happened here until I railed against your sister-in-law.
"Geez, you really have a lousy half-brother. Poor your mother too."
"That's how it happened here."
"When are you planning on going back?"
"I'll try to talk to Mama first okay. It won't be long, I can't stay here too long either."
I can't be in holiday mode like this. If Oliver is serious I will seriously also keep his trust in our relationship.
"Mom, do you need to go to the office every day?" I'm talking to Mama now.
"No, no one's in charge, technology is very advanced now. Mama actually in Ping An is not involved in operations, in the clothing factory is also just an investment. Retail chain stores in the Shenzen and Shanghai networks also have their respective managers in charge. Sometimes I go there once a week or twice. Or meet clients, or receive reports, they need to be addressed sometimes..."
"Want to stay with me in Hong Kong?" I told Mama what Oliver planned.
"You seem to have a kind lover. Thank goodness my mom calmed down. He thinks of you well."
"Yes, I didn't think he was thinking about this. If I could have my own business I'd try to run it as well as Ma."
"Mama helped you 50."
"He said he wanted to take it all."
"You are also Mama's son, you even have to live on the road in your young age, you have to accept Mama's help this time. This is the first time you can help, this is your chance, you should be excited about your new job. Who knows if the restaurant is good and can even open a branch in Shanghai as well." I smiled with my Mom's hope. Hopefully so.
"Yesterday Cheng Xin came here angry at me. His wife of course complained to him." Mom immediately saw me.
"He fought with you?"
"Yes, of course, from the first moment he had a fight with me. He just defended his wife and I rebuked his wife too."
"Then...?" I didn't mention what happened? Until he tried to slap me, I didn't want Mama to think about it.
"Then as usual he left after being satisfied to vent his emotions. Don't worry, I've been hearing the insults since the first day I came here. Let's just say he's a broken tape and the problem's over."
I imagine how she would undermine Mama every day here.
"What about staying in Hong Kong with me? If Mama's here Mama will be undermined by him. At least Mama can change places between Hong Kong and Shanghai. You said you only had to go to the office once a week twice."
"Mama really likes this house. Mama's been living here for a long time, but you're right, Mama can actually move anywhere, oh yeah you're going to live with your boyfriend?"
"Hmm. yeah, but Mama can sleep there, there's a guest room. The apartment is big enough for Hong Kong. Plus he sometimes goes to projects."
"Mama doesn't want to bother you, maybe Mama can buy property in the same place. You can help Mama find her unit later."
"That's better Ma..." Finally I I can find a middle ground for this situation for a while.
"Ohh yes Mama wants to introduce you to your Uncle and Aunt later, they also want to meet you before you come back. Your father used to be friends with your Uncle, they couldn't do anything about it when you were separated from Mama because of your Grandpa. That's why they're secretly helping Mama from behind."
"Yes Mama, I'm glad I have a family. Of course I'll say hi to Uncle and Aunt."
Other than Bao Bei who hates me, it seems that the other family will be fine with me.
