This stupid woman in front of me isn't a bad choice. I want to kill her.
Shi Xi smiled and said, "Little friend, you must protect yourself in the future and don't come to places that only adults go."
Instantly suppressing his killing intent, Helian Yi nodded, "Miss, I'm already eighteen years old, an adult, not a child anymore."
Shi Xi paused for a moment, then said, "I can't believe you're an adult. Look at your hands, so many calluses on your palms, you must have had a tough life."
When she first held the boy's hand, she felt it was a bit hard and had a lot of calluses, which must be from a poor family and from working hard since he was young.
Helian Yi smiled bitterly, "Indeed, life is not easy."
Shi Xi looked at the little boy and smiled wryly, confirming her guess. She took a lollipop out of her bag and put it in the boy's hand.
"Life is tough for everyone, it's just that everyone has a different attitude towards it. If you're unhappy and feel that life is bitter, eat a lollipop, or two if that doesn't work. Then buy a lot of food, eat your fill, and your mood will improve."
That's what she did; after eating her fill, all her troubles would disappear.
Helian Yi smiled and said, "Miss, this is a good idea."
"hey-hey--"
Shi Xi took a card out of her bag and placed it in Helian Yi's hand.
"There's not much money in this card, but you can keep it. Um, I'm not giving it to you for free, this is an investment. You go to school first, and after graduation, you can work for my family's company and make money for me."
Shi Xi wasn't a saint, but she was a sucker for good looks. Seeing such a handsome little boy, her maternal instincts kicked in, and she wanted to help him. However, she was afraid the boy wouldn't agree, so she said she'd earn money for him. Anyway, she had more money than she could spend, so she might as well give it to the little boy.
Helian Yi's lips twitched slightly as he took the bank card. "Thank you, miss. My name is Helian Yi. I will definitely repay you in the future."
Helian Yi never expected that one day someone would think he was poor. He said life was hard because no one he had ever lived on the edge of life and death was ever around. She mistakenly thought it was because his family was poor.
Shi Xi didn't intend to ask his name, nor did she intend to reveal her own, since they were just strangers who had met by chance.
"Little boy, I'm going to play somewhere else. You can leave now!" Shi Xi said, then got up and left without looking at the little boy again.
Helian Yi watched Shi Xi's departing figure, then looked at the bank card in his hand, and couldn't help but smile. What an interesting girl.
"Young Master, should we investigate that girl?" The six people who had just left came out.
Helian Yi suppressed the smile in his eyes and resumed his usual perfect smile. "No need. I have a feeling we'll meet again in the future."
"The old man wants me dead, so I have to give my older brother some gifts first."
The six subordinates trembled with fear; their young master was angry.

After leaving Helian Yi, Shi Xi ran to the center of the dance floor and started dancing. She danced without any rhythm, simply moving freely to the music. She jumped left, jumped right, twisted her neck, swayed her slender waist...
Shi Xi could only jump for about ten minutes before she had to rest on the sofa. No, her physical condition was too poor; she couldn't even jump for ten minutes. It seemed she needed to train more.
She was covered in sweat, and the makeup on her face felt really uncomfortable, so Shi Xi went to the bathroom to remove her makeup and wash her face.
Shi Xi always carried makeup remover with her. After removing her makeup, her pale and clean face was revealed. Her face looked better without makeup.
"Stop." Shi Xi had just stepped out of the restroom when she was stopped by a short, fat man with a shifty eye.
