I moved in with a good colleague and stayed at their place for a few days. No one bothered me during the first two days. I guess they must be enjoying themselves in the house.

Two days later, Tian Jiajia called me.

"Sis, where are you? Why aren't you coming home? Both Aunt Li and I are worried sick."

Of course, I knew she wasn't concerned about me; it was about the money.

The inheritance left by my parents was in cash, kept in the safe, but they only told me the password, which was something I found puzzling.

In my previous life, while I was away on a business trip, they had someone break into the safe and take all the money, including what I had stored inside.

As soon as I noticed the signs of the safe being tampered with, I immediately reported it to the police.

At the police station, Tian Jiajia insisted that all of it was part of the inheritance, intended for her.

"Before Mom and Dad left, they left this money for us. They always said that the eldest sister is like a mother, so I kindly entrusted my share to my older sister. Who would have thought she wanted to keep it all to herself? What's wrong with me taking back my own money?

"Besides, it's not just for myself. Aunt Li is our savior. She's old and in poor health. I just want to use the money to take care of her in her old age and for medical treatment."

She cried while speaking, genuinely and sincerely, making people feel sorry for her.

Aunt Li chimed in, adding fuel to the fire, accusing me of neglecting her, while Tian Jiajia scrimped and saved to take care of her.

After their speeches, no one doubted them. Everyone was moved.

They got the money they wanted.

Later, that money was all lost by Li Dayong in gambling.

On the day I moved out, I took all the money from the safe and got a new bank card.

These past few days, while I wasn't at home, they must have been unable to resist and opened the safe ahead of time, only to find it empty. Naturally, they panicked.

On the phone, Tian Jiajia kept talking non-stop. I ignored her and hung up the phone.

They were efficient and quickly found out my address.

On that day, just as I was about to leave, Tian Jiajia and Li Dayong showed up at my door.

"Sis, we were wrong last time. Today, I brought Big Brother Li to apologize to you."

Tian Jiajia quickly pushed Li Dayong, who was leaning on crutches, forward.

"Xiao Li, I was wrong last time. I apologize to you."

Li Dayong forced a smile and spoke, but I took a few steps back, feeling repulsed.

"Is there anything else? If not, just leave."

Tian Jiajia grabbed my arm, sweetly smiling, and stated the purpose of their visit.

"Big Brother Li found a girlfriend who demands a dowry of 100,000 yuan to marry him. But he just lost his job, so he doesn't have the money. Can you lend him the money?"

I laughed and retorted directly:

"You have no shame. Who would want someone like him, a rotten gambler? Don't ruin that girl's life."

Upon hearing this, Li Dayong's face immediately changed, and he seemed like he was about to act out.

I reminded them that there was surveillance at the entrance and then ignored them and left.

Before leaving, I deliberately didn't lock the door.

When the time was about right, I returned and, as expected, saw the chaotic scene.

The things inside the house were in a mess, several drawers were open, and the bank cards inside were gone.
