"Hey bro, want me to go buy you a bottle of water?" A boy sat on a stool and yawned.

"Brother Ye, Brother Ye, I'll go buy it for you."

"Didn't you go there last time? I'll go!"

Zhou Chiye skillfully took out the card, and just as he was about to casually toss it over, he saw Ji Chaoxi standing behind him with an expectant look on her face.

Zhou Chiye laughed in anger. He dared to swipe his card even after being cursed behind his back?

Don't even think about it!

The boy next to her also noticed Ji Chaoxi squeezing in, and the air fell silent for a moment.

Zhou Chiye tossed the card to a boy in front of him: "Bring back a bottle of water, and just swipe it if you want to buy anything."

Looking at Ji Chaoxi's eager expression, the boy hesitated before handing it over: "Brother Ye, why don't you let this girl buy it? She seems to really want to buy it."

Zhou Chiye replied coldly, "No way."

Ji Chaoxi looked at him expectantly: "Brother Ye!"

Zhou Chiye: ...

He frowned deeply. Did she think that calling him "Brother Ye" would make him forget about all those things from before?

Moreover, he didn't like the name "Ye Ge" at all; it sounded like a savage.

Zhou Chiye looked at Ji Chaoxi again, but Ji Chaoxi was still staring at him, her gaze exactly the same as when she tried to scam him last time...

He didn't say anything, and just swam away.

The boy next to her breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Ji Chaoxi: "Go ahead, classmate. Remember to buy yourself some things. I'm not short of money."

Ji Chaoxi was just waiting to take advantage of Zhou Chiye.

Zhou Chiye only drinks one brand of water. Ji Chaoxi had seen this brand of water before, and it was placed on the top shelf of the refrigerator in the school supermarket. She had previously thought it was just for decoration, but she didn't expect that someone would actually drink it.

Ji Chaoxi bought three popsicles and also bought one for Ji Huaichuan.

She ran to Ji Huaichuan's teaching building. When Ji Huaichuan saw the popsicle in her hand, he was overjoyed: "A rich girl!"

After hearing the story of the popsicle, Ji Huaichuan silently leaned on the railing, sighing incessantly.

He discovered that money really is a matter of fate.

He tries so hard to earn money every day, but Ji Chaoxi always manages to earn it.

She could earn money by being scolded, but he just got scolded. He even wanted to give those people some money to beg them to stop scolding him!

"Ji Huaichuan, pretending to be melancholy again." A girl walked by and smiled at the two of them.

Ji Huaichuan: ...

He's genuinely depressed, okay?

Ji Chaoxi returned to the swimming pool, holding water and popsicles, and waited patiently for Zhou Chiye to come up.

The boy next to her looked at the popsicle in her hand and asked curiously, "Hey, why didn't you buy something more expensive?"

"Isn't this expensive?"

Looking at Ji Chaoxi's sincere face, the boy's eyes were full of pity: "Follow our Brother Ye, and I guarantee you'll live a life of luxury from now on."

With a splash, Zhou Chiye braced himself on the shore, wiped the water off his face, and climbed ashore.

Ji Chaoxi quickly handed him the water and popsicle. Zhou Chiye glanced at her and took the water.

He took a few gulps and said impatiently, "Buy something more expensive next time. People might think I've gone bankrupt."

He was annoyed by Ji Chaoxi's reluctance to spend money.

Even when they stage an accident, they only dare to ask for 200 yuan; once they take his card, they only dare to buy cheap things like that.

Seeing that Ji Chaoxi didn't speak, he said impatiently, "Did you hear me?"

"I heard you, Brother Ye!" Ji Chaoxi's eyes immediately lit up.

It turns out that spending Zhou Chiye's money isn't so difficult after all.

He looked into her bright eyes and scoffed, "Pathetic."

Zhou Chiye only discovered in the last few days that Ji Chaoxi was actually on the same floor as him.

Strangely, he had never seen her before, but now he runs into her more than ten times a day.

After returning home from school in the afternoon, Ji Huaichuan ran out with a serious expression without even eating dinner.

He's going to pull off something big today.

But when he got to the road, an old man and an old woman were arguing fiercely over a good spot for staged accidents.

Both of them were old and naturally didn't care about saving face. They could curse as much as they wanted, and people on the street gave them strange looks.

The traffic policeman stood to the side, looking annoyed: "Grandpa, Grandma, please stop yelling. Be mindful of your behavior; this is a public place."

The two old people completely ignored him, cursing him in Mandarin, then in their dialect, and then launching a magical attack. One of them sat and muttered something to the sky, while the other took out paper money from his bag, preparing to burn it for him.

Seeing that the two of them had run to the side, Ji Huaichuan quickly lay down in the best spot to stage an accident.

The traffic policeman next to him: ...

"Hey classmate, I'm still here," he said with a smile.

Sure enough, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too. These old fogies have corrupted the future flowers of our motherland!

He stopped studying, lost all sense of shame, and was so desperate that he wouldn't even take off his school uniform and would lie on the street every day.

This isn't the first time he's encountered a student lying in the road; it's necessary to educate these elderly people about manners.

The quality of the elderly these days is really too poor!

Ji Huaichuan finally wrote a guarantee and slunk back.

The elderly woman and man were also required to write a guarantee.

"I can't read!"

"I'm getting old, my hands shake, and I can't hold a pen steadily anymore..."

As a result, the elderly woman and man were released immediately.

As soon as Ji Huaichuan left the police station, he saw the old lady start cursing at the old man, quoting classical texts and even using English.

The old man was no pushover either; his hands, which had been trembling just moments before at the police station, now possessed incredible strength, and he immediately began to wrestle with the old woman.

Ji Huaichuan: ...

The one who failed at staging an accident had to write a guarantee, while the two who succeeded didn't have to write anything. It really is fate.

Ji Chaoxi also felt very sorry for him. If she was a talented player, he was the kind of poor student who didn't have much talent but worked hard every day.

That evening, Ji Fangyun called them and sent them two thousand yuan.

"Hey, is your dad dead yet?" Ji Fangyun suddenly asked curiously.

Her tone didn't sound like she was asking her husband; it sounded like she was gossiping about a stranger.

Ji Chaoxi replied honestly, "Mom, not yet."

Ji Fangyun sighed: "Selfish people always live longer."

Ji Fangyun hasn't made much money lately, and as she talked, she started eyeing her father again.

"When your dad dies, we can just throw a few tables of food, collect some money, and that'll be enough for us."

Just thinking about that day made Ji Fangyun feel incredibly happy.

Whenever she felt she couldn't go on living like this, she would start thinking about this, and the thought of that money would make her happy.

But the money received at the banquet was certainly not much, so Ji Fangyun still thought about buying insurance for her father.

After buying insurance, she felt more hopeful about life. She counted down the days until he died, knowing she would receive money afterward, which significantly improved her sense of happiness.

Ji Fangyun's words were so beautiful that both Ji Chaoxi and Ji Huaichuan felt a longing in their eyes.

Will such a lucky day really come?
