Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

Upon hearing this, Lu Luozhi and her brother exchanged glances.

That would be terrible!

If they find out that she's the one selling grilled sausages at the school gate—the one who almost bankrupted them last time—then she'll smash up the stall they worked so hard to get back.

That won't do.

The siblings always worked together seamlessly, and in no time they moved in front of Cheng Ji and the others, blocking their view from the left and right.

"My friend, we're really miserable. We pick up rotten cabbage leaves every day, and we can't even eat meat once a year..."

Lu Luozhi felt it was a pity she didn't go into acting.

How is his acting bad?

"Hey gorilla, I'd love to invite you in for a cup of tea, but our water's been cut off because we can't pay the bill..."

When the deer cried out, it screamed at the top of its lungs, making a sound like it was crying and wailing, as if it were the most miserable person in the world.

One was crying on the left and the other was howling on the right. Cheng Ji and the other two were being pulled and dragged around so much that their ears were almost going deaf.

As they were being pulled, the three of them were dragged to the door, making sure the stall was out of their sight.

"What should we do now, brother?"

The skinny man asked urgently.

They didn't even care about the stall cart anymore.

They had secretly followed Huang Maozi just to see what his family background was like, but who knew it would turn out like this.

That's so tragic.

Not only were his parents dead, but he also left behind a brother and sister who were struggling to make ends meet and lived in abject poverty. No wonder Huang Maozi was so thin and malnourished.

Cheng Ji had no idea what to do.

He had seen poor people before, but he had never seen anyone this poor.

Who the hell comes from such a poor family and still gets into such a good school?

However, he still felt sorry for Huang Maozi.

Although Cheng Ji has always been a bit arrogant, domineering, and impolite, he is still a human being and a person with a conscience.

The blond-haired kid is already so poor, why would he want to kick him while he's down and mock him?

Impossible, he can't do it, and Cheng Ji isn't that kind of person.

Seeing the siblings crying and wailing, and looking at their poor and dilapidated home, Cheng Ji felt a pang of sadness.

"Brother, should we leave?"

The skinny man called to him softly.

We must leave.

They don't want others to see how poor their family is.

Cheng Ji gritted his teeth, took out all the cash on his body, and when that wasn't enough, he went to search the pockets of the skinny guy and the fat guy, leaving them completely bewildered.

"Boss, what are you planning to do?"

"Shut up."

After searching for a while, I couldn't find more than a few dollars.

Nowadays, everyone uses mobile phones, and nobody carries cash around anymore.

They only found a little over three hundred yuan in total.

Without saying a word, Cheng Ji stuffed the cash into Lu Mingshi's hand.

Without saying a word, he called the skinny guy and the fat guy away.

"Let's go quickly."

The three of them took off running, so fast that the deer's call to them was too late.

"Hey, gorilla, why are you giving me money?"

"Enough with the nonsense. Here, take it and spend it."

Cheng Ji replied without turning his head.

Lu Ming watched helplessly as they ran away and disappeared in an instant.

"You blondie, why did you lie to them and say this is our house?"

Lu Luozhi, standing beside him, also craned her neck to look out curiously. "Your classmate actually gave you money?"

"This guy calls himself the boss of our class and always likes to go against me. Lately, he's been secretly following me, trying to find out about my background. Seeing how sincere he is, I decided to put on a show for him."

Lu Mingshi looked at the banknotes in his hand and curled his lip.

"He probably really thought we were poor and wanted to help me out."

The deer nodded, indicating that it understood.

She had previously instructed Huang Maozi not to reveal his past relationship with the Ying family at school, so as to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

They don't mind the trouble they cause, but they can't let the Ying family get into trouble.

Especially Ying Yuchuan.

He is the president of the group, a public figure in high society, with status and prestige. His siblings cannot hold him back or tarnish his reputation.

"Return it to them tomorrow. Don't take other people's money without permission."

After giving him instructions, he went back into the house and re-invented the inventory of all the goods that had come in earlier.

She sighed as she looked at the nearly two thousand sausages that were still left.
