"Leo, that's enough. I'll do the talking." The strong wind pressure that echoed in the corridor disappeared in an instant. Jing Xiu fell to the ground in a sorry state. Nai Le and her brother slowly got up and looked up to see an old man with a big belly and white hair.
"How many times have I said that harmony breeds wealth! Are you a businessman or a local ruffian? How can I let go of you when all of you are like this?”The old man reprimanded the man. The man named Leo lowered his head and moved to the side."Father is right."
Leo... Leo of the Frederick family! Jing Xiu lowered his hood. It was rumored that this person had defeated all the experts in the school and seized the position of the student council president as soon as he entered the school. He had held this position until he graduated. All these years, even a part of the school's regulations had been formulated by him! He was even known as the strongest person to graduate from the academy in the past ten years!
She really didn't expect to see this legendary senior with her own eyes, and she didn't expect him to be such a person.
"I definitely want that pig called Red Braised Pork.”The old man seemed to be very kind." This hospital is also a property under our family. All the fees your father has paid here will be waived. The fees that have already been paid will be returned to you. In addition, I will give you two siblings a thousand gold coins.”
"Really?" Her brother was excited. The other party's offer was unexpectedly generous, making him extremely excited! I don't have to work humbly anymore. I don't have to earn money while running home to take care of my father. With this money, I can do what I want!! He smelled freedom.!”
However, a voice came from behind him."I don't agree."
He turned around and saw Naira staring at her toes with her head lowered.
"Please, that's just a pig.”He walked up to her and pinched her shoulders. His words became trivial."It was originally given to you by someone else. How many days can you have feelings for him when you just arrived at our house? Why not sell it to solve our family's biggest problem? Didn't you always want that blue dress? Haven't you always wanted to try the desserts at the snack shop on the corner of the street? Listen to me, I'll sell this pig and buy it all for you!”
"I don't agree…" She lowered her head and cried." I've never had any friends since I was young. Everyone would only laugh at me and bully me. Finally, I have Red Braised Meat by my side, allowing me to live a few days without being lonely. Although I'm poor, I'm willing to live such a life. Why? Why do you have to take him away? Do you want me to go back to my lonely life? Do you want me to be alone again?"
"You can't be too selfish. Tell me, have I lived better than you all these years? I do odd jobs, go to construction sites, and work like a cow! You're obviously very talented, but you still have to let you go to school! It's not easy to have a chance to change my fate. Do you want me to go back to my old life?”Her brother let go of her hand in frustration and walked a few rounds. Then, he squeezed her shoulder tightly."Even if you don't consider me, look at Dad on the hospital bed!! Can you earn the money he's lying here!？If you can't earn it, are you going to watch him die?？Just say it. In one sentence, do you want the pig or our dad!!!”
Her tears flowed like broken beads, forming a transparent lake on the ground. She covered her face with her hands, and after a long time, a trembling and weak voice came from between her fingers."Yes, Dad."
Her brother's expression instantly relaxed, as if he had become ten years younger."That's right!" Then, he turned around and extended his hand to the old man."Deal!"
"Isn't that great?" The old man shook hands with him, then turned to Leo.""Remember, force is the worst outcome after a deal breaks down. It should never be used as a means to facilitate a deal.”
Leo lowered his head.
"I... I still want to see him again." Nai Le raised her head. Her clothes were already wet with tears.
The old man nodded.
"I'll take you there." Jing Xiu extended his hand to her.”As he spoke, he dragged her into the shadow.
To be honest, this scene was a little like eloping, but it would be great if she eloped. She would stay far away from those rich people and her family and find a quiet place to wipe her tears.
But this was not eloping, it was a farewell…Big Brother Pig, it looks like I can't wait to have a good chat with you.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the Underground Arena's medical area. Our male pig trotter was quietly lying down and receiving treatment when he was suddenly hugged. He opened his eyes in surprise, only to see a tear-streaked Nai Ro in front of him.
Aiyaya, why are you here? You were so touched that you cried when I exposed my fight for you, right? He was still a little happy when he realized that Jing Xiu's expression was grave.
What? What happened? Could it be that her father really couldn't hold on? He was still thinking about it when he was picked up and the two of them walked all the way backstage. The little sister was obviously unhappy when she finally saw the owner of the pig."This is the owner of the pig? This pig had just won a match, three gold coins, and two gold coins for a consecutive win.”
Money! Money! He was extremely happy. Including the battle with May, he had earned eight gold coins today! I can do it! I'm amazing, right? Do you want to praise me?
However, the two of them walked up the stairs in silence and arrived outside the library. Outside, there were stars in the sky. In the distance, the old man and Leo were slowly walking over.
Nai Le hugged him tightly, making him feel a little suffocated.""Alright, alright, it's just eight gold coins. Although I'm very capable, you don't have to be so excited.”
She was even sadder when she heard his pig meow."I'm sorry…I'm sorry. Red Braised Pork, we'll sell you."
When he heard this, his mind instantly went blank.
What was that? Sell me? What did he mean?
"As long as we sell you, Father's hospitalization fees will be waived, and we will be given an additional 1,000 gold coins.”She buried her face in the fat on his back."I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Between father and you, I chose father.”
Yes, my father is a blood relative, and I'm just a pet. I've just been by your side for a few days, and I'm already a pet who thinks too highly of myself. He lowered his head slightly, then turned his head and rubbed her head with his mouth.
No matter who it was, if they had to choose between their father and a pet pig, they would definitely not choose the pet pig. So, I understand you, and I don't blame you.
Thinking of this, the corners of his eyes became moist.
"Please give us the pig." The old man walked in front of them. Leo stretched out his arm to her. She took a step back in resistance. Leo rushed forward and pulled her back."We've already paid! What are you waiting for!"
"Leo!"
Leo bowed deeply." Ma 'am, please give me the pig in your arms. We've already paid for it."”
"Here." She closed her eyes and turned her head. She handed the pig over to Leo, who snatched it away roughly. Leo's arms were hard and cold. The moment he touched them, he shivered.
"Then, I wish your father a speedy recovery.”The old man waved his hand and took out a hat from somewhere. He put it on his head and turned to leave slowly.
The pig poked its head out of Leo's arms and seemed to be looking back.
Jing Xiu felt a weight on his back. Something seemed to be pressing against his back. Then, his back became wet and her voice came from behind him."Please, let me lean on you for a while. I will be responsible for drying your clothes.”
He looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky."Just rely on me. It doesn't matter how long you want to rely on.”
