บท 8: I Don't Live off Women, Hehe!

"Hey, munchkin, give me an advance of 30,000 yuan."
Xia Jinmian brought Ye Moliang to the bank to withdraw the money.
The little boy was unexpectedly smart. He said in an adorable voice, "I can't withdraw tens of thousands of yuan for Sister now. I can only withdraw it on my way back. Otherwise, Daddy and Mommy will notice that tens of thousands of yuan are suddenly missing from my card. If they send someone to find me, Sister won't be able to continue earning money from me."
"…" Xia Jinmian slowly gave the little boy a thumbs up. She then retracted her thumb and said regretfully, "Then I'm very sorry. I'm penniless; I can't bring you out to play."
"Why would I let Sister spend money when you bring me out to play? I don't live off women, hehe!"
Xia Jinmian: "…"
This tyke was really something!
Xia Jinmian did not spend a single cent for the entire day indeed—the little boy put the supplementary card to work constantly.
The little boy also said that men should spend money on women. He bought a set of clothes for Xia Jinmian and changed her out of her worn-out clothes.
Come evening, when the little boy was tired from playing, Xia Jinmian brought him to a milk tea shop for drinks and rest.
The door of the milk tea shop was pushed open. A few girls with bruised faces walked in and made a beeline for Xia Jinmian.
The leader—Xiao Shanshan—questioned as soon as she approached, "Xia Jinmian, you still have the time to drink milk tea here? Don't you know that today is Bai Yumo's birthday? Where's the birthday gift you prepared?"
Zhang Xiaoli leaned close to Xiao Shanshan's ear and reminded her, "Xia Jinman is drinking milk tea that costs 45 yuan! She has the money to drink milk tea, but she doesn't even have the money to buy Bai Yumo a birthday gift. That's too much!"
Xiao Shanshan—who could not bear to buy a cup of milk tea for 45 yuan herself—glared at Xia Jinmian. Where did Xia Jinmian get the money to buy it? She must have asked Anlan for money! This shameless woman!
"Xia Jinmian, you're a deadbeat who keeps asking her ex-boyfriend for money. What right do you have to drink such expensive milk tea here? Bai Yumo called you several times, but you didn't answer. What do you mean by that? Bai Yumo gave you a bracelet that costs a few hundred yuan on your birthday. But here you are, spending money recklessly when it's Bai Yumo's birthday? Selfish… Ah!"
Before Xiao Shanshan could finish, Xia Jinmian suddenly picked up the milk tea in front of her and splashed it on her face.
Xiao Shanshan's body stiffened in disbelief. The sticky milk tea not only blurred her vision, but it also put her in a sorry state.
Xia Jinmian slowly put down the cup and glanced at them nonchalantly. "Poor memory. Asking for more?"
At first, the little boy was furious. He wanted to call his minders to beat up the unreasonable and clamorous women!
However, his eyes were sparkling with admiration now. He was grinning while raising his arms, cheering. "Sister is so cool!"
Xiao Shanshan and her entourage were stunned. They could not believe that Xia Jinmian would be so bold!
She was not like this in the past. She should be admitting her mistake and begging for their forgiveness in tears now!
"Ah—Xia Jinmian, you bastard!" Xia Shanshan screamed hysterically!
Zhang Xiaoli tugged at Xiao Shanshan as everyone looked over. They were so embarrassed!
Their mental fortitude was not as strong as Xia Jinmian. They could not bear the looks of derision and disgust from onlookers.
Xiao Shanshan growled indignantly, "Xia Jinmian, just you wait. Don't go back to the orphanage if you dare! Bai Yumo and An Lan will be back tonight. If An Lan finds out that you didn't buy Bai Yumo a birthday gift out of jealousy, he'll definitely hate you to death! Hmmph"
Xiao Shanshan gloated and left with her entourage.
Carrying his milk tea, Ye Moliang inched closer to Xia Jinmian. He tilted his head and asked curiously, "Sister, are you an orphan in the orphanage?"
No one knew what Xia Jinmian was thinking. Her downcast eyes were very scary. Hearing this, she looked up at the little boy and restrained the terrifying murderous look in her eyes. She nodded. "Yes, I'm an orphan."
Ye Moliang's eyes lit up even more. He hugged Xia Jinmian's arm and said, "Then you can be my sister from now on! I'll get Daddy and Mommy to adopt you!"
Xia Jinming was dumbfounded. "???"
