Chapter 37 One Hundred and One Dollars

Huo Beixi raised the flashlight and shone it around, but saw nothing. Then he gently stroked the back of Hua Xiali's head, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Then Huo Beixi picked her up and placed her directly on the crossbar of the bicycle. The bicycle he was riding was a men's bicycle with a crossbar in front.

The sudden soaring into the air startled Hua Xiali. She held Huo Beixi's arms tightly with both hands and leaned on his shoulder, as if she was holding on to a life-saving straw.

It was not until a long time had passed without her falling that she reacted and loosened her arms that were tightly hugging Huo Beixi. However, a strong sense of shame rose in her heart, and her cheeks couldn't help but become hot. If it was daytime now, you should be able to see her red face, right?

Huo Beixi handed the flashlight to Hua Xiali, then rode away on his bicycle, holding the handlebars with both hands.

Hua Xiali sat on the front beam, between Huo Beixi's arms. It felt like she was being held in his arms. This realization made Hua Xiali's heart pound. She carefully turned her head and secretly looked at Huo Beixi. The moonlight was dim and she couldn't see clearly. She slowly approached and suddenly the bicycle ran over something. After a bump, Hua Xiali's lips hit Huo Beixi's face.

Hua Xiali didn't react at first. What was the cool touch on her lips? When she finally reacted, she was completely stunned.

Did she kiss Huo Beixi on the face?

She felt both secretly happy and a little confused. She was happy because this was the first time she had kissed a man in two lives and it was a very exciting feeling. But she was confused because she was wondering what Huo Beixi was thinking of her.

Do you think she is a pervert?

When Hua Xiali was about to step back, a big hand suddenly pressed the back of her head, causing her lips to press tightly against Huo Beixi's face. It didn't feel greasy, but instead had a fresh scent of grass and trees. Maybe she had washed her face thoroughly before going out!

While he was lost in thought, Huo Beixi slowly let go of his hand and said, "It's okay. I guess you stepped on a stone by accident. I'll ride more slowly next time."

After the bike moved forward steadily, Hua Xiali couldn't help but think in her heart, Huo Beixi must have just been afraid that she would be frightened? That's why he comforted her just now, otherwise why didn't he mention it at all?

If others don't mention it, then she can't mention it either, otherwise it would be so embarrassing!

Hua Xiali held up the flashlight and focused on the road ahead. This time he was not distracted.

When the bike arrived outside Huo Beixi's house, Hua Xiali got off the bike and used a flashlight to help Huo Beixi light the way. After Huo Beixi opened the gate, she put the flashlight into his hand and said, "Huo Beixi, thank you for today. If it weren't for you, I don't know when I would get home!"

After saying that, he left holding his flashlight.

She went home through the small door in the backyard. Although she walked lightly, she still saw Hua's mother and Zhang Yongfeng coming out of their respective rooms when she reached the main hall. Hua's mother rubbed her eyes, yawned, and asked, "Xia Li, it's your first day setting up the stall. How was the result? Can you make any money?"

Hua Xiali took out the money he had transferred from the Lingquan Space in advance from his pocket and poured it onto the table. The pile of scattered bills looked like a small mountain.

Hua's mother and Zhang Yongfeng both widened their eyes in shock.

"So many?" Hua's mother's pupils trembled uncontrollably.

"Brother-in-law, you count the ten-cent ones, and mom will count the fifty-cent ones. I'm going to wash up first." After handing the task of counting money to her mother and brother-in-law, Hua Xiali hurried back to her room to get her clothes, and went to the bathroom with the thermos.

She didn't take a shower, but used water to wash her face and feet and change clothes. After all, it was already late at night and she really couldn't wait to take a shower.

"Have you finished counting?" Hua Xiali asked curiously after getting ready and coming out of the bathroom.

Every time she received money, she put it directly into the Lingquan space. She didn't count how much money she made that day, but all the potatoes she took out were sold, so she could estimate how much money she had earned.

"One hundred and one yuan, one hundred and one yuan!" Hua's mother was very excited. "I earned one hundred and one yuan in one day. It's too much money to set up a snack stand, right?"

Hua Xiali smiled faintly, but in her heart she was thinking, you don't know, in her previous life there were people who set up barbecue stalls and could earn hundreds of thousands a month! What is her 101 yuan?

"Yongfeng, you should quit your job as soon as possible and work with Xia Li. This way Xia Li will have an easier time and you can earn more money." More than one hundred a day, more than three thousand a month. It only takes two months to pay off the family debt. Starting from the third month, the family's life can be improved.

The more Hua's mother thought about it, the more excited she became. She felt as if she could see a bright future.

Zhang Yongfeng smiled and said, "Mom, I have already resigned. I will follow Xia Li after I finish these few days at the end of the month."

Hua's mother nodded and handed the neatly organized money to Xia Li, "Xia Li, keep this money for your business first. When you make a lot of money, call your relatives over and return the money to them."

"Okay." Hua Xiali took the money, tied it up with a rubber band, and then took the money back to the room. Hua's mother also turned off the lights in the living room, and everyone went back to their rooms.

Hua Xiali waited until there was no sound at home before she sat up from the bed. She walked quietly to the room where the potatoes were kept with a flashlight and collected some of the potatoes directly into the Lingquan space. Since she did not push the wooden cart back tonight, she would not be able to take the potatoes to school tomorrow, so she collected some first and would only need to take another 100 kilograms with her when she took the minibus tomorrow.

She really couldn't carry too much by herself, so she could only carry 100 kilograms outside to make it look like she had too much, and use the Lingquan space to cheat with the rest.

She didn't tell her family how many pounds of potatoes she had purchased, so if a hundred or two hundred pounds were missing, it wouldn't be easy to notice.

Lying on the bed again, Hua Xiali stared at the ceiling above her head in a daze, her mind was filled with the scene of her lips touching Huo Beixi's face, which could not be dispelled for a long time. She reached out and touched her lips, and then covered her face tightly with both hands. Isn't this too embarrassing?

Fortunately, Huo Beixi didn't ask anything, otherwise how would she explain it?

That she was careless?

Who would believe it?

Huo Beixi also tossed and turned, his mind constantly thinking about the soft, slightly cool lips against his face. He really wanted to taste them himself to find out what those lips tasted like.

After falling asleep in a daze, Huo Beixi had another dream.

In the dream, the man said, "Huo Beixi."

"When I die, I will be buried next to you and be your neighbor. I will continue to talk to you in the future."

"Is it okay?"

Same scene, same eyes, same sound.

Then Huo Beixi was awakened and broke into a sweat, even his clothes were soaked with sweat.
