While Big Dipper was speaking, his ear was attacked again, pinched between the girl's fingers.
"Don't bully Big Dipper!"
At that moment, the shy youth ran over and stared at the girl menacingly.
"What's the relations.h.i.+p between you two?" the girl inquired out of curiosity.
"We're brothers!" the shy youth vehemently declared.
"Big sister, he's still young, so be the bigger person. How about I write you an IOU and we'll let it pa.s.s? What do you want to do, huh? I have someone above me! If you dare to hut me, someone will definitely seek you out for revenge! As they say, when will an eye for an eye ever end? Why don't we raise a gla.s.s to the sky instead? A gla.s.s for you and a gla.s.s for me, and let's get drunk together…"
The girl glanced at Big Dipper. "You might be an idiot."
Big Dipper was startled. "How do you know? My mom also said that."
"He's not an idiot!" the shy youth cried agitatedly.
The girl suddenly released her hold, returning freedom to Big Dipper's ear.
"Why are you stealing?" she asked.
"I have a skill, so how wasteful would it be if I didn't use it?!" Big Dipper hastily replied.
The girl: "…"
"We… don't have any money. I haven't eaten for a long time… He's unwilling to go home, so he can stay with me…" the shy youth mumbled sometime later, his head lowered.
"Where's your dad and mom?" The girl turned to the shy youth.
"They're both dead." The shy youth's voice was soft.
"What about your dad and mom?" The girl looked at Big Dipper.
"Tch, my mom's health isn't good, and my dad ran off with a mistress. What about it?" Big Dipper asked.
The girl stared at Big Dipper, confusion on her face. His mom's health wasn't good and his dad ran off with a mistress… what in the world was he so proud about?
"No, Big Dipper… Your dad's probably dead," the shy youth corrected seriously.
"D*mn you! Your dad's dead! My dad ran off with a mistress." Big Dipper pursed his lips.
"Eh… My dad is dead, that's right, but your dad definitely didn't run off with a mistress. Your dad is also dead," the shy youth said.
"My dad ran off with a mistress!" Big Dipper looked worked up.
"Alright alright alright, enough." The girl immediately interrupted their conversation and looked at Big Dipper. "Your dad ran off with a mistress."
"That's right, my dad definitely ran off with a mistress! Take my word for it!" Big Dipper nodded vehemently.
"Do you two plan to keep stealing for the rest of your lives?" the girl asked.
"Haha, he doesn't have that skill, so of course it's going to be me doing the stealing!" Big Dipper looked rather proud.
"Then you two can follow me from now on." The girl smiled. "This way, your mom will have money to treat her illness and you two can also live better. How about it?"
"Sister, will we be full every day…?" The shy youth stared at her intently.
"That'll depend on whether you work hard or not," the girl replied.
"I… I can bear a lot of hards.h.i.+p!" Seven Star hastily responded.
"Wow, are you telling the truth? If we follow you, we can earn money for my mom's treatment?" Big Dipper also asked.
"Of course." The girl nodded with a smile.
"Then it's a yes from me!" Big Dipper nodded immediately.
"Sure for me too!" the shy youth echoed.
"Let's go! I'll take you to your new home." The girl turned around and started to leave.
"Sister, what's your name?" the shy youth shouted.
"Bai Feng. Bai for white and Feng for maple leaf. You can call me Sis Feng from now on," the girl answered without looking back.
"Sh*t, Sis Feng, wait for us!"
Big Dipper and Seven Star chased after her at once.
