Chapter 20: Daddy is out of Money
Editor: Atlas Studios
The next day, Xie Zhou pulled Xie Chaochao, who was still sound asleep, out of bed.
The little girl always had trouble getting out of bed. It was very difficult for Xie Zhou to wake her up every morning.
Xie Chaochao was sent to school by Xie Zhou. There was nothing in her small bag.
The snacks and the little flower snake were all confiscated by Xie Zhou.
When Xie Chaochao arrived at school, those children were already waiting there.
All of them stared at Xie Chaochao's bag.
Xie Chaochao was listless and wasn't in the mood to respond to them.
When she reached her seat, she dragged her face with both hands and stared outside.
When Little Fatty and Hei Wa saw Xie Chaochao in this state, they quickly surrounded her.
"Xie Chaochao, did you bring any candies today?"
Speaking of this, Xie Chaochao became even more depressed.
"No, my father confiscated my candies and even took Xiao Hua away!"
She sounded very wronged.
After hearing that, Hei Wa immediately shouted, "So what my parents said is true!"
"What's true?"
"Didn't you hear? Xie Chaochao's father is about to run out of money!"
"How is that possible?"
Little Fatty was the first to refute. "Xie Chaochao's father made a transport team. They make a lot of money. How can they not have money?"
Little Fatty often listened to his father talk about all the money he had earned from working with Xie Zhou.
His parents even wanted him to get along with Xie Chaochao in school.
"I'm telling the truth. My father said that because of the coal mine, Xie Chaochao's father threw all his money into it. Now, he has no more money! That's why he doesn't have the money to buy candies for Xie Chaochao today!"
"You're spouting nonsense. Xie Chaochao must have been caught skipping class yesterday. That's why her father did not allow her to eat any candies!"
"He just does not have any money!"
The two bunch of children started arguing, but Xie Chaochao, the party involved, remained silent.
Xie Chaochao listened to their argument. After a while, she suddenly stood up and quickly walked out of the classroom.
Xie Chaochao skipped class again.
She ran home quickly and bumped into Xie Zhou, who had yet to leave.
Xie Zhou saw that she had returned and was about to get angry.
However, he saw the little girl look up at him with teary eyes.
"Daddy, Chaochao won't eat candies anymore. I won't spend money anymore!"
Xie Zhou was stunned. He squatted down and held the little girl's shoulders, asking, "What happened to you? Did something happen?"
Xie Chaochao sobbed and said, "Hei Wa and the others said that you threw all your money into the coal mine. Our family is out of money now, so I won't spend money recklessly anymore! Daddy, don't be sad!"
Hearing this, Xie Zhou was stunned for a moment before his heart was filled with warmth.
"Chaochao, don't worry. Daddy won't run out of money. Daddy still has to buy new clothes and food for Chaochao!"
He smiled and said to his daughter, "I will let our Chaochao live like a little princess!"
Xie Zhou would only smile so gently at Xie Chaochao.
"Really? Daddy, don't lie to me. I don't need to eat candies. I want to save money for Daddy!"
Xie Zhou smiled and stroked her nose. "Daddy is not lying to you. I didn't give you candies today to punish you for skipping class. It's not that I don't have the money to buy it for you!"
"Forget about you skipping class today. The next time I find out you have skipped class, I will really not buy snacks for you anymore! You got it?"
Xie Chaochao nodded. "I got it!"
Her father had money, which made the little girl happy again.
Xie Chaochao was sent to school again by Xie Zhou.
Afterwards, she brought the grandpa to the col to pick up his things.
To Xie Zhou, bringing something up from this small col was a piece of cake.
The grandpa's big box was pushed up.
"You have gotten your things back. You can leave now!"
The grandpa glanced at Xie Zhou and slowly moved toward the big box. He opened the box and took out a painting.
"Here! Consider it repayment for rescuing me!"
Unsure of what was going on, Xie Zhou took the painting and took a look at it. His eyes immediately widened.
