Ma Xiaojun saw that everyone was looking at him, but he didn't take it seriously.
Jiang Manyue sneered: "One dollar and fifty cents, and you still dare to say you didn't steal it?"
Ma Xiaojun looked at the people around him with strange eyes, but he still spoke with his neck stiff.
"Yes, it's 1.5 yuan. What's wrong with that?"
"That's the amount I just gave you. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself."
"See if this one dollar and seventy cents is in there. I'm definitely not lying."
Seeing his expression, my aunt sneered, "Ma Xiaojun, don't you know that we're having a 20% discount today for our grand opening promotion?"
"What, 20% off?" He was stunned for a moment. He had no idea about this.
"That's right. Today is our grand opening sale. All cakes are 20% off, so a pound only costs 1.2 yuan."
"You don't even know the price, and you still have the nerve to say you paid?"
"Because today's activities are the same, all price lists have not changed."
Ma Xiaojun's face changed instantly. He said this after seeing the price list at the door.
The drawers of the cake shop were filled with one-yuan and fifty-cent bills, so it would be fine even if they were checked.
Who knew that he had no idea there was such a thing as a discount, and he let it slip in a few words.
"I can't believe he's actually a thief!" said the people around him who had just felt sympathy for him.
At this moment, everyone looked at him with contempt: "You are so young and you don't learn your lesson. You actually learned to steal things from others."
"Now he's just stealing cakes, but maybe when he grows up he'll rob and kill people."
"That's right, why keep this kind of kid? Arrest him and send him to the police station."
"No, don't call the police!" Ma Xiaojun was dumbfounded when he heard the word "call the police".
Jiang Manyue has always been cruel and ruthless to him. He knew that if he fell into her hands, he would definitely be sent to the police station.
With a thud, he knelt on the ground and said, "Please don't call the police, or I'll be taken back to the orphanage."
"I had no other choice but to come out and steal some food. If I stayed inside, I wouldn't have enough to eat."
"It's not just me, my brothers and sisters also go hungry every day."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but wipe his tears and started crying, but he didn't look like he was lying.
"Is this true? The orphanage only receives government funding. How could they possibly let the children go hungry?"
"Exactly. He actually ran out to steal food. I think this is just an excuse for him."
"I think so too. Don't be fooled by him. This kid is obviously a repeat offender."
At this time, a man in gray work clothes hurried over and came up immediately when he saw Ma Xiaojun.
He pulled the man up without saying anything and was about to take him away: "Ma Xiaojun, why did you run out again? Come home with me!"
"No, no, I won't go back!" He shouted excitedly: "Let me go."
The man looked fierce and had a bad attitude, which frightened Ma Xiaojun as soon as he appeared.
Seeing that the person was about to be taken away, Jiang Manyue immediately stepped forward to stop him: "Stop!"
"Who are you? Why would I take someone away in broad daylight?"
"I'm the director of the welfare home!" The man looked at Jiang Manyue with dissatisfaction: "Ma Xiaojun is a child from our welfare home."
"He sneaked out again today, so I came out to find him and bring him back."
"The director of an orphanage?" She looked at the person in front of her carefully. He didn't look like the director of an orphanage at all.
"You can't take him away!" My aunt said immediately: "Ma Xiaojun just stole my cake and didn't even pay for it!"
"What? Cake?" His face suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and pressed hard on his shoulder.
Ma Xiaojun covered his face in fear and subconsciously dodged as if he was afraid of being beaten.
"Sorry, I'll pay for it!" He smiled coldly and started to pay.
"Forget it!" Jiang Manyue frowned, "I heard the welfare home is struggling financially, so you don't have to give it to them."
Hearing her say this, the dean's smile immediately spread: "Hehe, thank you so much."
A hand pressed down on Ma Xiaojun: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and apologize!"
"Yes, I'm sorry! I won't dare to do it again!" He lowered his head, his eyes filled with fear.
Jiang Manyue couldn't help but smile when she saw him like this: "Director, I plan to send some supplies to the children in the welfare home."
"Could you please leave your address and phone number? I'll have someone send it over later."
"Wow!" When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but praise.
"Boss Jiang is such a kind person. He makes money and still likes to do good deeds."
"Yes, the children in this orphanage are really blessed."
"That's right. He's the boss of such a big department store."
The director of the welfare home was stunned for a moment and looked up at the magnificent three-story department store.
The surprise and greed in his eyes could not be suppressed: "Haha, okay, okay!"
He immediately smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close, and quickly wrote down the address and phone number.
After Jiang Manyue accepted it, he took Ma Xiaojun away.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, she frowned slightly.
"One month old!" My aunt understood the reason: "Ma Xiaojun stole things, but you also donated money to the welfare home?"
Ma Xiaojun is indeed hateful, but I always feel that what he said does not seem to be a lie.
And that look of fear was genuine, and he was not the only child in the orphanage.
If people really don't have enough food to eat, then the problem is serious.
