Rebirth caused a scandal, but accidentally saved Bai Yueguang

Chapter 23: Being Tricked

After hearing Xu Zhe'an's request, Zhong Yuan readily agreed.

"Okay, I'll prepare one for her too."

"Why don't we search on our phones now?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhong Yuan's face instantly fell, and she said angrily:

"Are you questioning your mother's judgment?"

"How dare I? I trust my mom. I'll shut up."

Xu Zhe'an could only admit his mistake.

"Okay, I took all the leftover lucky money from last year."

Zhong Yuan opened the memo on her phone and found a simple table that clearly recorded Xu Zhe'an's access history.

There are only five thousand left, which means that this is all I have now.

"Mom, can you take three thousand? Leave some for me."

Zhong Yuan threw the phone aside and asked with a half-smile:
"You don't even pay for the errands?"

"It should be given, but you charge too much."

Xu Zhe'an pinched his eyebrows.

"If you give her something too expensive, she definitely won't accept it. She has to be able to use it."

Because of my good academic performance, I receive red envelopes from my grandparents and relatives every year, and the total amount is nearly ten thousand yuan.

I was young at that time and didn’t have a bank card, so I had to give it to my mother for safekeeping. Over time, I no longer had the idea of ​​keeping it myself, but she would always take the opportunity to charge a little storage fee.

Zhong Yuan held up four fingers:

"Four thousand, leaving one thousand for you."

"Three thousand. The rest is yours after you buy things. You can even go for a massage or beauty treatment."

Xu Zhe'an felt a pang of pain when he announced the price, but what else could he do?

After a few minutes of calculation, Zhong Yuan finally compromised:

"Okay, okay, if there's something good like this next time, remember to come again."

Xu Zhe'an shook his head helplessly and sighed:
"Mom, if you weren't a doctor you would definitely be a capitalist."

"Tsk tsk, this is for your happiness. I want to feel the filial piety from my son in advance."

Zhong Yuan opened the photo album on her phone and suddenly said with a wicked smile:

"Actually, I could definitely ask for five thousand. Look at what this is."

She held the phone tightly, hanging it in the air, trying to make sure her son could see it clearly.

Xu Zhe'an widened his eyes. The photos she kept scrolling through were all of him dressed in women's clothes when he was a child.

Don't play like this!

It turns out that she had a backup plan. If the price was too low, she would probably use it as a threat.

What if Jiang Yun saw it?

His tall, handsome and majestic image will collapse and cease to exist.

In this situation, I have to say something against my will:
"Yes, yes, what mom said is fine, I agree."

"That's better. You can go out now. I'll choose the gifts myself the day after tomorrow. Don't tell anyone."

After Zhong Yuan finished speaking, she urged Xu Zhe'an to leave quickly, as she still wanted to have a video call with Xu Weishi.

After Xu Zhe'an came out, he saw Jiang Yun sitting outside alone, reading a book with her head down. The cake next to her was still untouched, so he walked over to her and asked:

"Why don't you eat?"

Jiang Yun raised her head slightly and replied in a very low voice:

"Wait, you can choose between two flavors."

"Whatever I choose, ladies first."

Xu Zhe'an opened the packages, one strawberry cake and one durian mille-feuille, and cut both in half with the included knife.

"This way you can have both flavors. Take it."

Jiang Yun didn’t like the cake very much. She was more concerned about Xu Zhe’an, who had a sad face.

"What did you just say to Auntie? You don't look happy."

"Ugh……"

Xu Zhe'an sighed deeply.

"I was tricked by my mother."

"what?"

Jiang Yun didn't quite understand what it meant.

"Be more specific."

"Ah... It's not a big deal, but I'm still feeling depressed."

Xu Zhe'an clenched his right fist and gently beat his chest with a pitiful expression.

Jiang Yun picked up one of the desserts and placed it in front of Xu Zhe'an.

"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. Eat something sweet."

"I can't lift it... Can Sister Yun feed me?"

Hearing Xu Zhe'an's request, Jiang Yun's concerned expression turned calm.

Okay, so you're waiting for me here. Dream on!

Xu Zhe'an, through the action of beating, had almost put his head on Jiang Yun's shoulder, while still muttering:

"It's no use having a bitter heart and eating sweet food. I'll be fine as soon as Sister Yun can comfort me."

Jiang Yun pushed his head away.

"Do you think I don't dare to punish you?"

"Sister Yun, you don't know, they took advantage of the situation and robbed me of three thousand yuan. I lost all my belongings."

Xu Zhe'an's acting is getting more and more like the character, just short of crying and sobbing.

"Oh, you deserve it."

Jiang Yun said lightly.

Despite what she said, she slowly reached out to pick up the fork and dessert.

"Stop yelling, it's embarrassing. Just this once, and it won't happen again."

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhe'an glanced at Jiang Yun through his fingers. She had already picked up the cake.

"Turn around and open your mouth."

"I know Sister Yun is the best in the world..."

Xu Zhe'an turned around while speaking, but before he could finish his words, Jiang Yun picked up a strawberry with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth.

He simply stopped trying and put his hands on his knees like a child waiting to be fed.

"How could Auntie possibly cheat you? She's such a nice person."

Jiang Yun used the fork a little at a time, moving very slowly, for fear of poking his mouth.

After trying it a few times, she found that this feeling was wonderful. Her eyebrows raised slightly and she gradually immersed herself in it.

"Xu Zhe'an, do you know what you look like now?"

"like what?"

"Large-sized baby."

It doesn’t matter what it is, at least today is happy.

"Sister Yun, do you want me to feed you later?"

"you try!"

Jiang Yun pouted and said dissatisfiedly.

"I have hands and can eat by myself. I'm not as childish as someone else."

It would be great if I had a camera at this time to record the precious scene.

The whole process lasted for more than ten minutes. When the feeding was over, Jiang Yun subconsciously took out a tissue to wipe the cream from the corner of his mouth.

After she came to her senses, she turned her head to the side, avoiding Xu Zhe'an's gaze.

"Sister Yun, you have really beautiful eyes."

"Shameless! Do you know what it means to stare at someone? It's a hooligan!"

Xu Zhe'an didn't care.

If you are a hooligan only to one person, how can you be called a hooligan? This is called true love.

Looking at each other at close range, with the blessing of willow-shaped eyebrows and peach blossom eyes, no one can control themselves.

"We've been reading for so long tonight, how about telling a story?"

Upon hearing Xu Zhe'an's proposal, Jiang Yun's first reaction was to refuse, but listening to stories had an irresistible appeal.

She looked up at the clock on the wall. It was nine o'clock.

"Listen for half an hour, then take a shower and go to bed."

"What do you want to hear?"

"Tell me about your childhood, like when you were in elementary school."

"Let me think about it, there's nothing special about elementary school."

After a little thought, Xu Zhe'an retrieved something rather special in his mind.

"When I was ten years old, in fourth grade, one morning I suddenly found a gray rabbit doll in my desk with a little red flower embroidered on its tail. I searched for a long time but couldn't find who had put it there."

When Jiang Yun heard this, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"and after?"

"I took it home and put it in the room where you sleep."

After Xu Zhe'an finished speaking, he stood up.

"What are you doing?"

"I'll take it out for you to see. Can I go in?"

"No, I haven't packed my things yet."

Jiang Yun stood up anxiously to stop him. The rabbit doll was on her pillow. What would happen if he saw it?

Seeing that she was acting out of character, Xu Zhe'an asked in confusion:

"Sister Yun, why are you so nervous?"

　Ask for support!
