Chapter 183: Shorty

“Eh? Wasn’t the 300,000 meant to be pocket money? What does it have to do with this?”

Song Jingwan bit her lip. “What I gave you last time was my savings for half a year. Besides, it’s hard to say whether I will be selected. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you to ask for money now?”

“I guess.”

Song Yaoyao nodded and started walking out with her backpack. “If you can’t bear to give it to me, then forget about it. Let me think about it, who should I recommend for that role…” She nodded her head as she thought.

Should she give it to someone else?

Song Jingwan stood up and gritted her teeth.

“Fine, I’ll give it to you!”

Her heart was hurting. Although her family wasn’t poor, they never gave her hundreds of thousands in pocket money in one go while she was still in school. Especially since her clothes and accessories were normally bought by Zhou Manli and she had nowhere to spend her money.

Song Yaoyao was doing well. In two installments, she had almost taken all of Song Jingwan’s pocket money and birthday money as well.

One minute later.

Song Yaoyao watched happily as she received another 200,000 in her account.

She returned Song Jingwan’s jacket to her and said in an extremely gentle voice, “OK, I will recommend you to Uncle Kang, and tell him to let you join the cast!”

“That’s more like it.” Song Jingwan accepted her jacket, but she felt something wasn’t right. Yet when she thought about it, she couldn’t figure out what was wrong.

At that moment, she was still hopeful that she would be selected.

But if Song Yaoyao was tricking her, she was going to make her run away with her tail between her legs!

…

Huo Ningxi stood outside in the cold for ages before he turned his head and saw Song Yaoyao walking out of the milk tea store. His expression immediately darkened.

He strode over and grabbed onto Song Yaoyao. She stumbled a little.

“Huo Ningxi, what are you doing?” She almost fell on her head as she brushed Huo Ningxi away.

“While I was waiting ages for you, you went to the milk tea store?” The main issue was that she didn’t buy him a cup. Had she forgotten whose house she was living in? “Didn’t you see me waiting here?”

“Yes~”

Song Yaoyao replied indifferently as she adjusted her backpack.

“If you saw me…then why didn’t you say anything?” Huo Ningxi lifted his hand to beat the brat to death. “You must be happy to see me freezing in the cold!”

Song Yaoyao didn’t feel anything initially, but when she saw Huo Ningxi wiping his nose and stomping in anger, she was somehow triggered and she suddenly burst into laughter.

“Go ahead and hit me then! Let’s see how you explain yourself to Gege later!”

She held her stomach and bent her waist as she laughed. Her almond eyes were curved beautifully like two crescent moons.

Huo Ningxi gritted his teeth and pulled back his hand.

“You just wait. I’m going to deal with you one day!”

Song Yaoyao pulled a face at him.

“Ningxi, you’re still here.”

Song Jingwan, who had been neglected for a whole two minutes, lost her patience and decided to greet Huo Ningxi. When Huo Ningxi turned his head and saw her, he raised his eyebrows. “Oh, you’re here as well? Didn’t your driver come?”

Song Jingwan’s voice contained a trace of anger, “I’ve been standing here the whole time.

Didn’t he see her standing there?

Her eyes turned red and she stomped her feet like a girlfriend who had been neglected by her boyfriend.

“Ahem…”

Huo Ningxi wiped his nose. “Sorry, I didn’t notice.”

His empty voice floated past before he grabbed onto Song Yaoyao’s collar. “Let’s go. You should go home early.” As he walked away, he waved his hand without looking back.

“Huo Ningxi! If you keep acting like this, I’m going to beat you up!” the girl threatened.

“Haha, Shorty, talk to me again when you grow taller.”
