The pain in the shoulder is easy to endure, and the malice that comes from the eyes and voice is like a cold winter wind, which cannot be ignored.

The girl raised her head and looked at her mother's face expressionlessly, but in the depths of her eyes, a light of fear could be seen flickering.

Yuko Moriya saw the flickering light, and she was satisfied, fear was awe, a manifestation of power, and she had rarely seen such emotions from others since she became addicted to gambling.

"There's no money." The girl twisted her head.

"What not! Didn't I tell you to go to my grandmother's bedside to get it! That old woman just likes to put her money there! Yuko Moriya was not satisfied with her daughter's answer, and the strength of her palm increased again.

The girl gritted her teeth, and she almost screamed as the pain increased, but she quickly adjusted to the ordeal.

She looked at her mother's face and begged, "I can't steal anymore, my grandmother will find out." ”

"What is stealing, isn't the old woman's money our mother's, how can it be called stealing with your own money? Even if you steal ...... If you can't get it, you tell the old woman that the school has to pay a fee. The money for ordering magazines, the money for visiting events, saying what you want to buy with your classmates, didn't I teach you how to make excuses, why don't you look for them! ”

Yuko Moriya's words gradually became irritable, and her smile became stiff at the thought of not having money to sit at the table today, and her expression management was on the verge of collapse.

The girl was keenly aware of the atmosphere before the rainstorm, her shoulders trembled, and she hurriedly explained: "I really have to pay lunch today......

Before she finished speaking, she realized that something was wrong and hurriedly covered her mouth, but it was too late. She has leaked the aroma of meat, and the jackal has come to taste it.

Yuko Moriya showed a bright smile, this is no longer a fake smile, but sincere happiness, the joy of playing mahjong, and the joy of opening the poker.

"You're going to pay for lunch today, right? Money in a bag? Yuko Moriya let go of one of her daughter's shoulders and reached for the red school bag.

"No way!" The girl broke free of her hand, took two steps back, and hugged the schoolbag behind her with both arms.

Her voice trembled: "I'm going to hand it in today!" ”

"Mom knows, Mom will still ask you for lunch?" Yuko Moriya looked at the pedestrians around her and beckoned to her daughter: "Come back, mom will help you check it to prevent you from losing your money." ”

"I checked."

"When was it checked?"

"Before I went out, I checked with my grandfather."

"That's before you go out, and now that you've been walking for so long, you have to take another look, in case you get lost on the road, it's too late to find out when you get to school."

Yuko Moritani looked concerned and her voice was soft, as if she was really worried about the girl.

Under her inducement, the girl worries about whether the money is still lying in the pouch of her school bag, and this worry distracts her attention and lowers her vigilance below dangerous levels.

She removed the straps of her bag, and Yuko Moriya came to her side and looked into the bag with her.

The two of them saw the small white cloth bag together, and the mouth of the cloth bag was tied with rope.

The girl had just breathed a sigh of relief, and a palm reached into her field of vision and took the cloth bag.

"Mom!" She hurriedly hugged the arm.

"What's it called, I'll help you see if it's inside, if it's empty, the teacher will think you stole it and used it."

Yuko Moriya once again gave reasonable words that could arouse her daughter's suspicions.

The girl hesitated.

"Loosen." Yuko Moriya snapped.

The girl struggled for a moment, but shook her head.

Yuko Moriya looked around again, the intersection was relatively remote, but now it was the peak of people, there were many pedestrians, and she had to get rid of her daughter in a calm way.

"What are you nervous about, mom will still take your money, let go!" She shook her arm.

"You took the money for the school trip last year." The girl refused to let go, tears glistening in her eyes.

Yuko Moriya was dumbfounded, her mind was full of dice and cards, and she didn't remember how much money she cheated from her daughter, and she didn't want to remember how she cheated money.

After a pause, she had another way, she said to her daughter: "Mom just helps you see if the money is in it, you hold Mom's hand, Mom can't untie the bag, you let go of your hand and hug Mom's waist." ”

The girl did not suspect it, she let go of her arm and quickly hugged her mother's waist.

Her waist was thicker than her arms, and she could only hold her tightly when she was attached to her mother's body, so her face was buried in Yuko Moriya's lower abdomen, and even if she raised her head and tried to look at the white cloth bag in her mother's hand, her vision was extremely limited.

Yuko Moriya's arm waved, stuck at an angle, covering the girl's view, and her fingers quickly reached into the cloth bag and quickly withdrew.

The hand speed she practiced at the gambling table was very immature in front of gamblers, and it was already a great magic in front of her daughter.

"Yes, the money is in it." Yuko Moriya closed the bag, tied it, and put it in her daughter's school bag.

The girl watched this scene in surprise, she didn't expect that the cloth bag could really return to her side.

"Alright, let's go to school, you're going to be late." Yuko Moriya quickly helped her daughter carry her schoolbag, patted her head, and urged.

The girl's remaining doubts were dispelled by the fear of being late, and she grabbed the shoulder strap of her school bag, waved to her mother, and ran to school.

Her face was full of joy, her steps were a little cheerful, and this was the first time since she came to her grandparents' house that her mother did not ask her for money, and did not tell her how to cheat or steal her grandparents' money.

Mom even cared about her and helped her confirm the money in the bag.

She thought that her mother was better than before, and as long as she continued to get better, she would be able to go back to two years ago and buy her home again. Dad passed away, but she was still able to live with Mom.

She turned her head and saw her mother's smiling face, she stretched out her hand and waved it again, and her mother responded to her enthusiastically, she felt that today was a happy day.

Watching her daughter's back disappear into the corner in front of her, Yuko Moriya put away her gaze, she spread her hand, and a roll of money was clipped into the palm of her hand.

What a stupid daughter.

Yuko Moriya smiled proudly, she felt that she had completed a perfect thousand techniques in the game with her daughter.

Putting the money in her pocket, she hummed a little tune and walked briskly down the road.

I met the man when she walked out of the alley and onto the side of the avenue.

The man sat in the back seat of the Bentley on the side of the road, looking at her through the open car window, his eyes were flat and there was no obvious emotion on his face.

She instinctively restrained her somewhat presumptuous smile and gait, revealing a somewhat rusty and decent smile to the other party.

The man did not respond to her, and the window slowly closed, but the driver's door opened, and the driver walked towards her.

[Yuko Moriya never dreamed that she would meet a young and handsome rich man like you on the side of the road, let alone that your driver would send her a message and ask her if she would like to marry you. 】

[Where would she refuse such a good thing. She gazed greedily at the car logo, thinking back to what she saw through the window, your expensive clothes and watches, which turned into colorful chips in her mind, and her fingers made movements to grip them. 】
