59. Beggar Gang Girl

59. Beggar Gang Girl

JiiXi has an air of narcissism.

He has an extremely morbid yet gorgeous beauty, with the blood of an ancient noble family.

He has attracted the sideways glances, of many female guests, in the vegetarian teahouse.

JiiXi has been a free spirit since childhood, always doing whatever she wants.

And he never caring about other people's opinions.

..

Just when JiiXi was bored, and buried herself in eating. With an air of looking down on everyone around her.

Suddenly, a red hair girl, popped up beside he.

And sat down across from he, in a carefree manner.

The red hair girl, is a mixed-race, of Australian and Vietnamese.

She was dressed in a trendy red street dance outfit.

Looking like a rebellious angel on the street.

She is Yeiiee, a playmate of JiiXi.

JiiXi met she, when he skipped school in the first grade.

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, is the number one campus belle of Mos Poor University.

Nickname: Desperate Asura.

One of the top ten Asuras, in Mos University.

JiiXi was surprised and said:

"Big Sister, why are you out and about at noon?"

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, smiled mysteriously and said:

"We girls from the Beggar Gang.

Usually come out, during lunch and dinner time.

When we see an acquaintance.

We'll go up, and pretend to bump into them.

On purpose to find an excuse, to mooch a meal.

Junior, why are you also out and about at noon?

Didn't you usually skip classes, and come out, in the afternoon?"

JiiXi said helplessly:

"I didn't want to be out at noon either.

I'm selling books, I brought from Xanadu.

I've gone from rich to poor.

And can only sell my assets.

I guess I can't afford the tuition for next semester.

It's $50,000.

I have to sell books to get some capital.

And look for opportunities, to make some money, to pay the tuition."

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, looked a bit worried and said:

"If you can't make money.

You might as well transfer to our school.

Mos Poor University, in the slums of North City.

The tuition is low, only $1000 for a semester.

Students don't have money, can even delay paying the tuition."

JiiXi curled her lips and said:

"I still have ways to make money.

I should be able to make some money, during the summer vacation."

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, frowned and said:

"It's always good to have a backup plan."

JiiXi mocked herself and said:

"I'm very likely to transfer to your school.

A slum university, is really suitable for a worst student, like me."

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, looked around and suddenly complained:

This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

"Junior JiiXi.

It's not easy for me, to bump into you, while you're having a meal.

But every time, I see you eating.

You're always having vegetarian food.

Will you die, if you don't eat vegetarian food?

And whenever you're free.

You're always eating snacks."

..

JiiXi explained with great bitterness:

"When I was a kid.

I spent a summer vacation, at a relative's place, in Xanadu.

The old neighbor next door, passed away.

My relatives, forced me to pay my respects to the old man's corpse.

It was too hot in summer.

The corpse, was oozing fluid, and smelled bad.

Since then, every time I eat meat.

The stinking corpse of the old man, would appear in my hallucination.

So I never dare to eat animal meat again.

The nutrition provided by vegetarian food, is insufficient.

So I can only keep eating snacks to supplement nutrition.

Moreover, I have to eat those snacks, with high nutritional value.

But the top-notch snacks, are expensive.

So, unlike you.

I'll really die, if I don't eat snacks.

In the customs of Xanadu.

Paying respects to the corpse of a deceased elderly person, is supposed to bring good fortune.

Maybe the fear of corpses, will stay with me, for a long time.

Is this my good fortune?

Is my good fortune, just eating vegetarian food?

It's like, God is playing a joke on me."

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, had a pitying expression and said:

"Junior, you're really pitiful.

Forget it.

I forgive you."

。。

The relationship, between JiiXi and the red hair girl, Yeiiee, is rather strange.

After JiiXi started school.

He often skipped classes in the first grade of primary school.

And hung out in the ancient bookstore.

In the ancient bookstore.

Six-year-old JiiXi, met nine-year-old red hair girl, Yeiiee.

The red hair girl, was in the fourth grade, at that time. She had run away from home, and was wandering outside, as a beggar girl.

..

There are few commercial service buildings, with roofs, in Utopia.

The ancient bookstore, happened to have a roof.

The ancient bookstore, is a place where rich people often stay.

Facilities like air conditioning, are relatively advanced.

In summer and winter.

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, often went to the ancient bookstore.

To enjoy the cool air in summer, and the warmth in winter.

Occasionally, the red hair girl, would pretend to be JiiXi's sister, and lie beside him to sleep.

After going back and forth like this, the two of them became familiar with each other.

But they didn't have much verbal communication.

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, was often hungry, and looked sallow, and emaciated.

JiiXi would share her snacks, with her.

When leaving, JiiXi would also leave the unfinished snacks, for her.

Whenever the red hair girl, Yeiiee, was hungry.

She would come to the ancient bookstore, to find JiiXi.

In this way, a tacit understanding, was formed between them.

Whenever the red hair girl, showed up.

JiiXi would give her snacks to eat.

..

Once, after the red hair girl, Yeiiee, was full, she still stayed by JiiXi's side.

When JiiXi left, she shamelessly followed him, all the way.

JiiXi didn't understand and asked,

"Aren't you full?

Why are you still following me?"

..

The red hair girl, Yeiiee, finally opened her mouth and said:

"I don't want to go home.

I have no home to go back.

And I'm out of money.

Could you give me some money?"

..

This was the first time, the two of them, had a verbal exchange.

JiiXi had no choice, but to give her some money.

From then on, whenever the red hair girl, Yeiiee, was full but still lingered around.

JiiXi would know that, she was out of money, and would give her some money.

However, their verbal communication, was still rather limited.

..

In recent years, JiiXi would occasionally meet the red hair girl, Yeiiee, in the mecha game hall.

The red hair girl, would pester JiiXi, to play games with her.

After they had a common interest, their verbal communication, began to increase.
