Chapter 8: Mental problem

Su Hua was about to speak when Feng Xiao, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.

“It wasn’t me who broke it.” His voice was hoarse, as if he hadn’t spoken in a long time.

The fat man shook the fat on his face, “Kid, if it weren’t for you, would this bowl have broken?”

Feng Xiao wanted to explain, but being not good with words, he didn’t know what to say. He simply told Su Hua, “You should go.”

“No one can leave until the money is paid!”

Su Hua pretended to reach into her bag, then pulled out a wad of cash and tossed it into the air. A large pile of banknotes fluttered down to the ground.

“There’s ten thousand yuan here. Take your time picking it up.”

This alley was the back kitchen area for several restaurants, and the moment the fat man started shouting, a crowd had already gathered to watch the commotion.

As soon as Su Hua scattered the money, everyone’s eyes lit up and they rushed over to start picking it up.

The fat man anxiously shouted, “That’s my money, my money! None of you are allowed to take it!”

But the others ignored him. Who wouldn’t pick up free money?

Meanwhile, Su Hua grabbed Feng Xiao and ran out of the alley.

Feng Xiao finally looked up at the strange girl in front of him. She was wearing a white dress, her skin was fair, and she was slightly out of breath, leaning on her waist. But the smile on her face was incredibly bright and made one feel a natural affinity towards her.

However, she seemed a bit off in the head.

“Why did you give him money just now?”

Su Hua thought for a moment, then replied, “Because I can afford to.”

Feng Xiao: “……” Definitely not right in the head.

“Thank you, I’ll be going now.” He had come to ask for his wages, but ended up clashing with the fat man. In his anger, the fat man had kicked over a small table holding bowls, and then demanded compensation from Feng Xiao.

“Hey.”

Su Hua hurriedly grabbed Feng Xiao, but he immediately shook off her hand and stepped back, as if she were some kind of virus.

Su Hua: “……” We just held hands a moment ago.

“Is there something else?”

“What’s your name?” Su Hua smiled gently, wanting to influence Feng Xiao like the heroine in a story.

Feng Xiao pursed his lips, “I’ll pay you back the ten thousand yuan.”

“Then let’s exchange contact information.”

Feng Xiao: “……”

“How else will you repay me?”

In the end, Feng Xiao gave Su Hua his WeChat contact, planning to delete her after repaying the money.

“Remember, my name is Qin Hua.”

The young man continued walking forward without stopping.

Su Hua stroked her chin thoughtfully, “This Feng Xiao doesn’t seem to like talking much, and he’s very wary. But that’s understandable, growing up in an orphanage, he must be more sensitive.”

After saying this, Su Hua continued, “System, why did you issue such a random task just now? Shouldn’t it have been to help Feng Xiao get his wages back?”

“If money can solve the problem, it’s not a problem.” The system paused, then continued, “However, we will consider your suggestion for improvement. And I’m not called a ‘stupid system’, I’m 666.”

(T/N: means awesome/cool)

“Got it, stupid system.”

Why do I feel like strangling the host to death?

When Su Hua returned from the mall, Shu Lan was already home.

“Hua Hua, did you go out to buy clothes?”

Su Hua smiled, “Yes, do you like it?”

“Our Hua Hua is the prettiest.”

Shu Lan was puzzled. Her daughter had never cared much about her appearance, so why the sudden change?

But no matter what, Shu Lan supported her daughter’s positive changes.

After dinner, Su Hua went back to her room, took out her phone, and sent Feng Xiao a WeChat message.
