"But maybe I'm lucky, before I joined the Qin Sheng Group, I didn't enter the game more than three times." Bai Xi took a sip of red wine.

Xia Lingge listened quietly.

"Until one day, my cousin came to me. He said he knew I was also in the game, and that if I helped him, I could get an extra 20,000 dollars a month on top of my salary. ”

Bai Xi picked up the wine bottle and poured more than half of the wine into the glass.

Xia Lingge looked at her outfit: "But judging from what you are wearing, it doesn't look like you're short of money." You're not Si Cheng......"

My sister is suffering from cancer, and the family's living expenses, including tuition and medical expenses, are all on him alone, and if he will die for 20,000 yuan, the credibility is higher.

"Yes, my salary is not high, but it is still enough for my mother's medical expenses, but ......" Bai Xi's voice paused, she turned her head to look out the window, "Do you know, why did I bring you to this restaurant?" ”

They are now seated on the fifth floor of the entire restaurant, close to the window, and when they look up, they can see all the nearby buildings, and the most conspicuous of them is probably the orphanage two blocks away.

Xia Lingge retracted his gaze: "The orphanage? ”

"yes."

Through the window, you can only see the gray burst through the dilapidated roof, but even so, Bai Xi's eyes falling into the house are indescribably soft: "I heard my mother say that I was abducted when I was one year old, but then the family that bought and sold wanted a girl, so I was thrown to the road and left to fend for myself, and it was Qian's mother who adopted me, that is, the director of the orphanage." ”

"She provided for us to study, go to college, and rely on the money we earned from constant work, and donations from those so-called caring people."

Her voice turned to Xia Lingge and said, "Do you know why this high-end steakhouse is open here?" Because, every time those caring people donate, they will come here to eat, and they donate less than one-tenth of the steak. ”

"But it doesn't matter, no matter how little it is, it's money."

In Baixi's mouth of the diced steak, Xia Lingge looked at the neatly cut beef cube in front of him, inserted a piece and turned around: "What now?" Is there a dilemma? ”

Bai Xi didn't speak, just quietly ate the steak on the plate one bite at a time, her eyes fell on the orphanage outside the window and stayed for a long time, turned to Xia Lingge and asked slowly, "Do you want to go and see?" ”

The crooked word 'orphanage' was covered with a layer of fine ash, the paint fell one after another, the iron railing was half-hidden, and the twisted chains fell to the ground with a slight push.

The yard is not very large, standing at the door and gently scanning the circle to observe the layout, there are many children's favorite equipment in the empty field, seesaws, trampolines, slides and swings, etc., are very complete.

"Sister Bai! Sister White! ”

The children who were playing the game turned their heads when they heard the sound and saw Bai Xi's eyes light up suddenly.

Bai Xi put the snacks she had bought on the ground and half-crouched down for them to plop on, and she smiled softly and sweetly, a smile she had never released in front of her mother.

"I've brought you something to eat."

She pushed two large bags of snacks in front of the children, and the children did not rush to grab them, but the big ones were polite to the small ones, and the boys were humble to the girls, very well-behaved and polite.

"And who is this sister?" A little girl tugged at Bai Xi's sleeve and asked timidly.

Bai Xi touched her head: "This sister is also here to visit you." ”

Xia Lingge also put the bag of snacks he was carrying in front of them.

"Thank you, sister."

"Thank you, sister."

They thanked her in unison, and one of them blinked at her and sighed in a daze: "Sister, you are so beautiful, like the fairy in Mother Qian's story." ”

Bai Xi chuckled and rubbed his head: "Why didn't I find you so good at talking before?" ”

She kneaded his face for a long time, and was about to knead the little chubby dun before she let go of her hand: "What about Mother Qian?" ”

"Inside."

They held out their hands in unison.

Bai Xi got up and walked into the door, Xia Lingge followed, the walls that had fallen into disrepair fell a lot of white paint, the corridors were spacing small, and there was a room for children to rest or read at intervals, which looked extremely crowded, but it was better to be clean.

The further you go inside, the stronger the smell of Chinese medicine.

Bai Xi heard the subtle coughing sound, hurriedly opened the innermost bamboo curtain and walked in, Qian's mother, who was wearing reading glasses, sat at the table and coughed, holding a red pen in her hand as if she was correcting someone's homework.

"Mother Qian."

Bai Xi hurriedly brought water and put it in her hand.

Mother Qian was surprised and surprised when she saw her: "Xiaoxi? When did you come? ”

"Just now." Bai Xi looked at her with a smile, "Have something to eat with your friends, and then come and see you." ”

Mother Qian's eyes fell on Xia Lingge, who came in from behind, Xia Lingge withdrew her eyes to look at the decoration in the house, and greeted politely.

Qian's mother understood and coughed again.

"Are you getting sicker?" Bai Xi worriedly comforted her.

Mother Qian waved her hand, "It's much better to take some Chinese medicine, my body has nothing to worry about." I'm more worried about the orphanage than that. ”

"Or is no one willing to come to the rescue?" Bai Xi looked at the leaflet made by Qian's mother, and picked it up in a low voice.

Mother Qian patted her hand comfortingly, "It's okay, I can still hold it, and ......" She took out a bank card from the drawer and moved it to Bai Xi, "I don't know who two days ago, I put this bank card in the love box of the orphanage, leaving only a note with the password, not even a name." ”

"I checked, with this bank card, it's not a problem for our orphanage to survive the winter."

"That's great!" Bai Xi smiled happily, and then remembered something and asked, "What about Xiaomei?" Has she ever been here? ”

Mother Qian shook her head: "No." Maybe she's busy......"

Then Bai Xi and Mother Qian talked a lot, the orange sunset dyed the whole sky, Bai Xi took a can of Coke and handed it to Xia Ling singer.

Xia Lingge shook the Coke in his hand but didn't open it: "It can be seen that you need money very much." ”

Her straightforwardness made Bai Xi chuckle self-deprecatingly: "Yes, I need money very much, so when Zhang Dapeng took 20,000 yuan to hang me, I agreed without hesitation, isn't it greedy?" I want my biological mother to be good, and I want my mother to be with me forever......"

"So Zhang Dapeng is dead now, but you need to continue to stay in Qinsheng Group to earn this money, but you can't do it yourself, right?"

Xia Lingge unceremoniously understood Xi's thoughts: "I am fortunate to have experienced the 'nurturing grace' of non-blood relatives and understand your feelings, but you must also know that I didn't eat the steak you treated, and the gifts to the children were also my own money, there is no relationship between you and me, and it can even be said that strangers only know their names." ”

Bai Xi was silent, Xia Lingge looked at her indifferently and continued: "In other words, if you want to use the emotional card to make me soft on you, then I'm afraid you're looking for the wrong person." ”

Xia Lingge unscrewed the cap of the bottle and made a 'bang-' sound, Bai Xi clenched the cola in his hand and suddenly said: "I can listen to you all, whether it is to win over players, listen to intelligence, or test monsters, I can." ”

"And what if it's a solo solo?"

Xia Lingge shook the crimson liquid: "Can you also die for me?" ”
