Chapter 818: 2 People Change Their Views
Seeing this, Reba, who was standing by, immediately stuffed the steaming and fragrant snack in her hand into the old man's hand without saying a word.
"Old man, this is for you! You must not have eaten yet, right?"
"No, no, no, little girl, this is not nice! Just eat it yourself!" Zhao An Ning quickly waved her hand to refuse.
However, at this moment, a child suddenly appeared from nowhere.
The child's face was frozen red, like a ripe apple, and the down jacket he was wearing looked a little dirty.
He called Zhao An Ning "Grandpa Zhao".
His eyes were fixed on the food in Reba's hand, and his eyes revealed an expression of extreme desire.
When Reba saw this scene, she couldn't help but feel pity in her heart, and she handed all the snacks in her hand to the child without hesitation.
"Little brother, these are all for you to eat!" Reba said gently.
"Thank you, sister!" The little boy took the food happily and burst into tears of gratitude.
Then, the little boy seemed to have seized a rare opportunity and quickly pleaded with Jiang Cheng and Reba.
"Kind sisters and brothers, can you give me some pocket money? Our life is very difficult, please..."
As soon as the little boy finished speaking, Reba beside him picked up her bag reflexively and began to search eagerly.
However, when she pulled out a bunch of snacks and cosmetics, she couldn't help but say awkwardly, "Sorry, little brother, I don't have any cash in my bag."
Hearing this, the corners of the little boy's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a look of slight disgust.
But he quickly adjusted his expression.
"Oh, so the driver might be poor. But that's true, your car doesn't look like a famous brand."
The little boy's words made Zhao An Ning feel embarrassed for a moment, and she could only force out a smile.
He said to the little boy, "Xiaoqing, it's not nice to talk like that. Nowadays, people don't carry cash with them when they go out. They all use mobile phones to pay. Grandpa told you, don't ask for money when you see people in the future. Grandpa will give you pocket money."
Faced with Zhao An Ning's teaching, the little boy seemed a little impatient, and he said with a pout.
"Grandpa Zhao, have you sold all the bottles today? I want to eat something. I've been growing and haven't been eating well lately."
When Zhao Anning heard this, a trace of apology appeared on his face, and he spoke to the little boy gently.
"Grandpa will go sell things later. By the way, where is the few hundred dollars I gave you yesterday?"
After hearing this, Xiaoqing rolled her eyes and replied uncomfortably.
"The school required study materials fees. I didn't want to pay, but I was worried that my classmates would look down on me, so I paid it. Grandpa Zhao, I'm really sorry."
After hearing this, Zhao Anning's expression became even more kind.
He patted Xiaoqing's shoulder gently and comforted her.
"Don't say sorry to grandpa, poor child. It's really not easy to study now. Only by studying hard can you have a bright future. Don't worry, grandpa will find a way to solve it. Here, take this money first."
After saying that, Zhao Anning reached into his pocket and fumbled to take out a red plastic bag.
I saw him carefully open the bag, which was filled with one-yuan and two-yuan coins.
Zhao Anning counted the money carefully, then stuffed all the money into Xiaoqing's hands and gave instructions.
"Use this fifty-five dollars for emergency use. Grandpa will come back to your house in a couple of days to get some money for your living expenses."
Xiaoqing pretended to be in tears. He held Zhao Anning's hand tightly and said with a sob, "Thank you, Grandpa Zhao. You are so kind to me! I will study hard and live up to your expectations."
After getting the money, the little boy's originally cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a shrewd light.
Jiang Cheng, who was standing aside, saw all of this and his brows furrowed involuntarily.
From the very beginning, he sensed the dark side hidden in the little boy's heart.
Not only that, Jiang Cheng was also keenly aware that every word the boy said to Zhao An Ning was a lie.
Jiang Cheng asked seriously, "Grandpa Zhao, is this child your grandson?"
Zhao Anning shook his head gently when he heard this and said slowly, "No, this child's name is Xiaoqing. I met him at the door of the orphanage at the end of last year. I felt sorry for him at the time. His parents had divorced and didn't care about him. His grandparents had passed away, so I felt compassion and decided to sponsor him to go to school."
After hearing this, Jiang Cheng showed a puzzled expression and turned to Xiaoqing.
"Now, except for the food fee, all other expenses are free, right? The welfare in Kyoto is so good, there should be subsidies, right?"
When the little boy heard Jiang Cheng's words, his eyes dodged a little unnaturally, and then he said.
"It's true that we don't have to pay, but there are still many places where we need money. As for subsidies, I'm not sure. Brother, you look very rich, can you give us some subsidies?"
After hearing what the little boy said, Jiang Cheng's mouth corners slightly raised.
Although he did have a wallet in his pocket, he did not take it out.
He then asked: "Which primary school did you attend? How were your grades?"
When the little boy heard this question, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
However, Zhao Anquan, who was standing aside, seemed somewhat proud.
"Xiaoqing is studying in the first primary school! And his academic performance is very good, sometimes he can even get full marks!"
Seeing that Jiang Cheng did not give him the money, the little boy said a few words to Zhao An Ning, then turned around, picked up the money and things and ran away without hesitation.
At the same time, Jiang Cheng quickly took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Wang Sheng.
Seeing that Zhao An Ning was determined not to get in the car, Jiang Cheng did not force her.
He walked slowly behind him, leading Reba.
Looking at the skinny Zhao An Ning in front of her, Reba felt a different kind of emotion towards Jiang Cheng for some reason.
Today's scene really gave her a different understanding of Jiang Cheng.
Reba said shyly, "I find you are really different."
Jiang Cheng nodded slightly, indicating that Reba should continue.
"When you first took over Feng Gan, to be honest, although I was grateful to you, I just felt that you were really arrogant and domineering. Although you did have the capital and your original intention was to help me, I really didn't really appreciate you at the beginning."
"Because this matter concerns my future, but when I had dinner with you for the first time, I got to know you a little better. The way I handled the Feng Gan incident made me feel that you don't despise us girls who pursue fame and fortune. On the contrary, you respect us. Even when it came to Fan Shuishui, you didn't take the opportunity to add insult to injury or take advantage of her."
"But in order to deal with Feng Gan, you directly destroyed the interests of other people around him. So I think you are quite contradictory, both good and evil. And now, I see another side of you."
Seeing that Reba’s friendliness value towards him suddenly reached 90 points.
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but look at her.
I didn't expect that such a small thing she did would allow her to directly reach the 90-point threshold.
This incident was an important turning point for Reba.
In fact, for Jiang Cheng, it was also a moment when his impression of Reba changed.
"It seems like you like this side of me?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng looking at her, she actually took the initiative to hold Jiang Cheng's hand.
Then her face turned red and she gently squeezed out a word: "Hmm."
This "hmm" made Jiang Cheng suddenly feel like there would be one more person in the bed tonight.
