Chapter 955 The Little Princess’s Married-in Boyfriend (47)
Saying that, she hung up the phone.
Right now she was so hungry she itched to beat up Xu Menggui. She had no time to pay attention to this psycho.
【Scum abuse index: 68.】
One “scram” gave her three index points.
If she’d known earlier, she’d have shouted “scram” a few more times.
Bai Weiwei sighed. “How could I have muddled along to the point of sleeping on the street.”
System: “Take a few more newspapers. Otherwise when the weather cools, you’ll feel uncomfortable sleeping.”
When Bai Weiwei heard this, she almost cried.
Homeless people had a few tattered quilts.
She alone had to go collect newspapers.
Bai Weiwei stood up, resigning herself to scrounging for newspapers. People had to be able to move with the circumstances1.
After all, the weather was getting a bit cold.
While she was picking up newspapers, she actually found 20 yuan.
Bai Weiwei clutched the 20-yuan banknote. “Tongtong, look, 20 yuan.”
System: Host, you’ve broken. How did you get to this point.”
It couldn’t stand to deal a blow to her and could only give comfort. “So much ah, ehehe.”
Afraid she’d be robbed, Bai Weiwei ran to buy a piece of bread, along with a bottle of Coke.
Just as she was about to eat it.
There was a crying sound by her feet.
Bai Weiwei froze and looked down.
A little homeless boy sobbed pitifully as he looked at her.
“Jiejie, could you give me something to eat?”
Bai Weiwei asked the system, “Is this also someone Psycho Xu sent?”
System: “Mn.”
Bai Weiwei: “…”
Whatever was in Xu Menggui’s brain, she had to mull over it.
Otherwise, she predicted it would be very difficult to raise the favorability in the future.
Bai Weiwei’s mind churned a few times, and she read over the data of Xu Menggui’s childhood.
She could probably get an idea of Xu Mengui’s thoughts from it.
She gave the boy a glance, silently broke off half of the bread, and handed the piece to him. “Eat ba, one half each. I’m hungry too.”
Bai Weiwei spoke frankly, looking genuine.
The little boy accepted the bread and ran away.
Bai Weiwei sighed. “Not even a word of thanks.”
The system opened its third eye. The little boy had taken the piece of bread and run over to a corner.
There was a large man in a blank suit. The little boy handed the bread over to him.
The man gave the boy a few banknotes.
Deep in the corner, leaning against the wall, stood Xu Menggui in a brown windbreaker. His face was a bit pale, and his hair was somewhat messy.
He looked at that half of bread with a complicated expression.
“You’ve gotten this hungry and you can still share with others. Really… didn’t you get too hungry?”
The system withdrew its gaze and saw Bai Weiwei resolving her hunger and thirst problem.
Then she hugged a few newspapers, ran over to the pavilion, and laid them down for a rest.
Bai Weiwei: “Tongzi, good night.”
System: “Sweet dreams.”
Bai Weiwei thought she wouldn’t be able to sleep, but because she was too tired, sleepiness overtook her. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The system watched over her.
If there was a bully or gangster or something, it could warn the host.
The result was that there was no bully or gangster, but there was Xu Menggui.
He stood outside the pavilion, smoking a cigarette. His complexion was ghastly and haggard.
He seemed more pitiful than the host.
He slowly walked over and crouched down beside her, staring at her blankly.
Bai Weiwei lay curled up with several newspapers over her body.
There wasn’t a single bit of thermal insulation.
She trembled due to the cold, her brows tightly knitting together. Her skin was still beautiful and delicate, but it was still possible to see the wretched state she was in.
He snuffed out the cigarette and sat next to her, just guarding her like this.
He whispered to himself, “Why didn’t you just accept your fate? There’s nowhere to go, nothing to eat. Isn’t it the most painful?”
Like him, who had sunk into a dark place.
In order to shake off the painful memories of his childhood, he was willing to fall into depravity and become a demon.
This was being human, the most correct choice.
Driven to a dead end, she would become a demon without good thoughts in her heart, just like him.
Xu Menggui laughed with a pale face. “You’re still willing to share bread with other people. Like I thought, I’m still too kind to you.”
He saw that she, in her most desperate circumstances, was willing to give the food in her hand to people he had sent.
At that moment, both anger and adoration burst forth at the same time.
Anger because she still did not accept her fate and fall into depravity.
And yet at the same time, he couldn’t help but be moved by her actions.
