Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 168 The Domineering Younger Uncle and the Gentle, Independent School Beauty (22)
"Mr. Fu? What brings you here?"
The girl's first reaction upon seeing Fu Jingheng was surprise, mixed with a hint of resistance.
Fu Jingheng felt utterly defeated. When had he ever been treated like this before?
Fu Jingheng was furious inside, but his face remained cold. He straightened up and casually replied, "Just passing by." He lazily glanced at the brightly lit shop sign behind Xiaoxiao, then looked down at her and asked, "Do you work here?"
[Yaoyao: This old man is all talk and no action. He clearly waited for you at the door for an hour, but he still claims he was just passing by.]
Xiao Xiao smiled faintly and remained silent, raising her hand and shaking the bag in her hand. "As a witness to my first job, and also to thank you for taking care of me these past few days, I'll treat you to some milk?"
Fu Jingheng raised an eyebrow and glanced at the bag, which was clearly filled with leftover milk from the store. He sneered, "Miss Gu, you wouldn't be giving me this, would you?"
"What's wrong? Is it not okay?" Xiaoxiao asked, somewhat confused.
"I don't need it, you can keep it for yourself!" Fu Jingheng was so angry with Xiaoxiao that his liver hurt. He was a president, and he was going to drink other people's leftovers?
Don’t even want to die!
Xiao Xiao hesitated for a moment, then said, "If you don't want it, I'll save it for Cao Zheng."
"Cao Zheng?" Fu Jingheng could hardly believe his ears. Xiao Xiao had actually given away the gift she had given him to someone else.
"You said you didn't want it. Besides, Butler Cao has helped me a lot, so I really should thank him properly."
"No!" Fu Jingheng said anxiously, grabbing Xiaoxiao's hand.
The warm palm touched the girl's cool little hand, and it felt like an electric shock, startling the girl so much that she immediately jumped away.
Just as the bag in his hand was about to fall to the ground, Fu Jingheng caught it with lightning speed.
Fu Jingheng looked at the wary girl, picked up the bag, and said coldly, "Since it's for me, you're not allowed to give it to anyone else."
Because Xiaoxiao's current residence is not far from here, Fu Jingheng did not ask Cao Zheng to drive over, but decided to walk Xiaoxiao home instead.
After all, they had to cross a pedestrian street and a park, and it was so late. Xiao Xiao was a girl, so Fu Jingheng was worried.
As dusk settles, the quiet night is disrupted by the bustling crowds. The dazzling lights illuminate the faces of men and women of all shapes and sizes, adding a new dimension of interest to what would otherwise be a dull and monotonous existence.
But the complexities of this world did not affect the person beside Xiaoxiao at all.
The two walked side by side under the streetlights until they passed a child begging by the lake.
The man, who had been silent all along, suddenly stopped and walked up to the child.
Seeing the pitiful state of the book on the ground, Fu Jingheng unhesitatingly pulled out a stack of Mao Zedong banknotes and gave them to the child.
The dirty little boy, perhaps never having seen so much money before, excitedly cried and bowed to Fu Jingheng, thanking him for a long time.
Fu Jingheng simply nodded politely and then walked away with Xiaoxiao.
The neon lights passing by the shop shone on the man's glasses, adding a touch of warmth to the otherwise aloof and lonely man's face, which was filled with a smile.
Xiao Xiao suddenly couldn't understand Fu Jingheng. "Aren't you the one who weighs the pros and cons the most? How could you be so selfless as to give that child so much money?"
Fu Jingheng, however, didn't take it to heart. "I just gave him a chance to compete fairly with others."
"Aren't you afraid of being cheated?"
That child's behavior didn't seem like that of a poor family's child.
Fu Jingheng frowned. "How could a little kid have so many bad intentions?"
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt that Fu Jingheng was a bit like a naive and innocent character in a TV series, who had been tricked by his older brother's family for so many years without realizing it.
Just the right IQ, and now it's gone again after meeting a child whose background seems pitiful!
[Yaoyao: I suspect Fu Jingheng is incredibly successful; he must be cheating! Otherwise, with his current intelligence, it's absolutely impossible!]
Xiao Xiao knew that Fu Jingheng was stubborn. To change his gullible nature, she had to present the facts. She turned slightly and returned to the spot where the begging child had been.
Because he had accepted the money from Fu Jingheng, the child stopped kneeling and started counting the banknotes in the street.
Just as he was counting intently, a policeman came chasing after him.
The policeman saw him and was indignant. "You little rascal, you're swindling people here again. I'll take you to the juvenile detention center today."
The moment the child saw the police, he picked up his schoolbag from the ground and ran away without saying a word.
As the farcical chase unfolded, the crowd gradually dispersed.
Xiao Xiao looked up at Fu Jingheng, whose face was pale, and smiled faintly, "Mr. Fu, let's go back!"
Fu Jingheng, who had been frozen in place, shoved the bag back into Xiaoxiao's hands. "Take this, I'll go get the money back," he said, before joining the chase after the little brat.
Xiao Xiao looked at the bag in her hand, then at the man's departing figure, speechless with emotion...
