The little girl somehow sensed something was wrong, turned around, and said, "You're awake? There are roujiamo (Chinese hamburgers) on the table. I saved two for you. Go eat them if you're hungry."
"Where am I...?"
Huo Xuanxi asked without changing his expression.
The young girl gave him a disdainful look: "My home. Do you think I'd take you to a hotel? I don't have any money."
She openly and frankly stated the fact that she was poor, without the slightest hint of inferiority or timidity.
The Huo family suffered a major upheaval more than a decade ago, and Huo Xuanxi endured a period of great hardship.
But even then, he had never lived in such a small house or eaten the food on the table that smelled of cheap spices.
But at this moment, Huo Xuanxi didn't feel uncomfortable at all; in fact, he even had a faint urge to tease the little girl.
He endured the pain from his wound, propped himself up on the cushion, and sat up, raising an eyebrow. "You just brought me to your house like this? Aren't you afraid I'm a bad person?"
The little girl scoffed dismissively.
"You can't beat me."
Huo Xuanxi was taken aback, then chuckled softly.
Well, in terms of strength alone, the little girl has every reason to be proud.
Judging from the effortless strength with which she threw the thugs against the wall, her slender frame probably contains arm strength of over 100 kilograms—enough to compete in weightlifting.
I really don't know where she gets the muscles to support her strength from her thin arms and legs.
However, although she is strong, her fighting skills are really average. She relies entirely on brute force to charge at opponents. If she encounters someone with higher strength, they can easily subdue her.
His eyes flickered, and he got up and went to the table. He picked up the two roujiamo (Chinese meat sandwiches) in the plastic bag and took a big bite without any hesitation.
"You stole money from those thugs, aren't you afraid they'll come looking for you?"
It's not good meat; it's all flavored with spices. There's too much fat, and the dough is poorly fermented. It's really low-quality food.
But he ate with great relish.
The little red bird rushed up to him aggressively, staring intently at him as he chewed on his roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), letting out a heart-wrenching, furious cry of despair as if its food had been stolen.
"—Eeya!"
The little girl glanced at the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) with a hint of reluctance; one cost five yuan.
She only has two hundred yuan in total...
It would be better to give him steamed buns and pickled vegetables.
No, after deducting the money for the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), gauze, alcohol, and Yunnan Baiyao (a traditional Chinese medicine), she only had less than 150 yuan left!
Tong Su clutched her chest in pain.
He should be fed steamed buns and pickled vegetables!
"I actually hope they come knocking on our door," the little girl's stingy expression was so pitiful that Huo Xuanxi felt a little sorry for her. However, she then grinned maliciously, "Then I'll have living expenses!"
This child...
Just as Huo Xuanxi's heart was about to soften, the little girl suddenly looked at him seriously and asked, "I saved you, shouldn't you give me a reward?"
Huo Xuanxi pondered for a moment: "How many do you want?"
"Three hundred!" Her gaze drifted guiltily. "Your suit looks very expensive, you must have money, right?"
Yunnan Baiyao costs thirteen yuan a bottle;
I bought three packs of gauze for eighteen yuan;
One bottle of alcohol, five yuan.
Huo Xuanxi didn't know how his neurotoxin was neutralized; the only point of suspicion lay with this little girl.
As for the Huo family, he had already laid out his plans and wasn't in a hurry to go back.
then.
“To be honest,” he said sincerely, “I just went bankrupt. The reason you saw me lying injured in the alley is because I was just chased by my creditors.”
Then, Huo Xuanxi successfully saw the little girl opposite him, who looked incredibly shocked and devastated.
"You're bankrupt?!"
This...this rescue...
But that's a huge loss!
