Chapter 367: Begging Along the Street

~7 min read 1,347 words

When Lin Jingying said this, a captivating rosy flush flew across her cheeks, but her gaze was extremely firm, giving one the feeling that she would not stop until she reached her goal.

It looked like there was no way to escape this ordeal tonight.

Lin Feng thought to himself, and could only say: "Fine, I'll take you home right now..."

Before he had even finished speaking, Lin Feng's expression suddenly changed.

He saw a little girl in rags kneeling by the side of the food street more than ten meters away, and this little girl had many wounds on her body, looking as if she had been whipped by someone.

In front of the little girl was a piece of cardboard with a few crooked lines of text written on it.

"Kind uncles and aunties, please help me. I haven't eaten for several days, I'm about to starve to death..."

Watching the little girl begging on the side of the street, Lin Feng's expression became very unpleasant.

"Senior Sister, let's go over and take a look," Lin Feng said.

Lin Jingying, however, said: "Perhaps she's a swindler, Junior Brother, don't be fooled."

"Whether she's a swindler or not, won't we know if we test her?" Lin Feng said.

"How do you want to test her?" Lin Jingying asked.

Lin Feng pointed to a mobile stall selling steamed buns not far away and said with a smile: "Didn't she say she hasn't eaten for several days? Since that's the case, let's buy her something to eat and see if she really hasn't eaten."

"That's a good idea!" Lin Jingying's eyes lit up.

So Lin Feng and Lin Jingying took a large bag of steamed buns and strode over to the front of the little girl.

"Eat, don't be shy."

Lin Feng stuffed all these steamed buns into the little girl's hands all at once and said with a chuckle.

"Thank you, uncle and auntie!"

The little girl hurriedly thanked them, then opened the bag and began to wolf down the food.

Looking at her appearance, it seemed like she really hadn't been full for a long time.

Before long, this large bag of steamed buns had all been eaten by the little girl, and the little girl then said: "Thank you, uncle and auntie, I'm full now, you are truly such good people!"

"You're welcome," Lin Feng said.

Then the little girl got up from the ground, tucked the cardboard under her arm, and ran off into the distance.

Lin Jingying asked: "Should we follow her and see?"

"Of course," Lin Feng said without hesitation.

Five minutes passed, and this begging little girl arrived at an overpass.

At this very moment, there was a constant stream of people on the overpass, and this little girl in rags naturally attracted the attention of countless people.

After arriving here, the little girl found a corner spot to kneel down again and placed the cardboard in front of herself.

"How can such a small child be begging here?"

"Does she not have a mom or dad?"

"What on earth is going on here?"

"Someone call the police."

The people around were discussing it heatedly, and the little girl then said with a sobbing tone: "Kind uncles and aunties, please have pity on me, I haven't eaten anything for several days, I'm really so hungry..."

However, just at this moment, a man and a woman appeared in front of the little girl.

Who else could the young man and woman who suddenly appeared here be but Lin Feng and Lin Jingying?

And in Lin Feng's hand, he was carrying a large bag, which was filled entirely with steamed buns.

"I thought you were full, so it turns out you weren't full."

Lin Feng smiled, then handed the bag filled with steamed buns to the front of the little girl: "Eat, don't be shy."

Consequently, the expression on the little girl's face froze instantly.

Lin Feng laughed: "Eat, don't be shy."

With so many people around watching, the little girl had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the bag filled with steamed buns from Lin Feng's hand, and said with a stiff tone: "Thank you, uncle..."

"Don't bother with the nonsense, hurry up and eat," Lin Feng urged.

The little girl took a deep breath, only then opening the bag, taking out a steamed bun, and stuffing it into her mouth.

Watching the little girl's miserable expression as she ate, Lin Feng and Lin Jingying both felt it was very funny.

A full ten-plus minutes passed before the little girl finally finished all the steamed buns in the bag, and her belly was already bulging.

She opened her mouth to speak, but as soon as her mouth opened, she couldn't help but let out a burp.

"Is it delicious?" Lin Feng asked.

"Delicious, thank you uncle, I'm full."

The little girl said, hurriedly picking up the cardboard and running off into the distance, not even daring to look back once.

"Let's go, follow her," Lin Feng said.

Lin Jingying laughed until she was shaking: "You are really trying to torture that little girl."

"Who told her to lie?" Lin Feng said.

Ten minutes passed, and the little girl had moved far away from that overpass and arrived at a bustling road.

She looked around, seemingly searching for Lin Feng and Lin Jingying.

After searching for a long time without seeing the figures of Lin Feng and Lin Jingying, the little girl finally let out a sigh of relief.

Then she knelt down again and placed the cardboard in front of herself.

But before she could say anything, Lin Feng and Lin Jingying appeared once again.

Seeing Lin Feng and Lin Jingying appear before her like ghosts, the little girl was practically on the verge of a breakdown!

"Y... you guys, why are you here again?" the little girl said with a sobbing tone.

"Wherever there is someone in need of help, there I am," Lin Feng said with a smirk.

Lin Jingying then took a steaming bag of soup dumplings out of her Storage Ring and said, "Are you hungry again? Come, eat, don't be polite."

However, how could the little girl possibly eat any more?

Her stomach was already bulging; if she ate any more soup dumplings, she would probably burst.

"Uncle, Auntie, can you please let me go?" the little girl said, looking aggrieved.

"Let you go? Do you think that's possible? You're so young yet you don't learn to be good, scamming people here; why should we let you go?" Lin Feng said.

"I don't want to be like this either, but... but..."

The little girl's face was full of an expression of wanting to say something but holding back.

"But what?" Lin Feng asked.

"But..."

The little girl had only said two words when a youth named Huangmao came running over from a distance.

Seeing this little girl, Huangmao immediately revealed a ferocious grin and ran even faster.

Both Lin Feng and Lin Jingying frowned.

Because that Huangmao was the very guy who had been beaten up by Lin Feng at the movie theater!

Who would have thought it would be such a coincidence to run into him here.

Moreover, this little girl seemed to know that Huangmao, because as soon as she saw him, a look of extreme fear appeared on her face.

In just the time it takes to catch a few breaths, Huangmao had already arrived before them and even yanked the little girl up from the ground.

"How much money did you make tonight?" Huangmao asked.

"Brother Huang, I..."

Before the little girl could finish her sentence, Huangmao had already reached into her pockets and started rummaging around everywhere.

But even after Huangmao pulled the linings of the little girl's pockets out, he didn't find a single cent.

Consequently, Huangmao flew into a rage, spraying saliva as he cursed: "How is there not even a single coin? You dead girl, are you slacking off? I think you're asking for a beating!"
