Chapter 739: I saw a beggar
Tong Yao nodded, "I saw a beggar."
Hu Haiyun was puzzled, "Do you have friends who can’t afford to eat? Does that person bear a grudge against you?"
According to Tong Yao’s personality, if her friends were down and out to the point they couldn’t afford to eat, Tong Yao would never sit by and watch them go begging, so there was only one answer: that person was not a friend of Tong Yao’s, but her enemy.
Tong Yao burst into laughter at Hu Haiyun’s words, "He’s not my friend, nor is he my enemy, I’ve just seen him a few times. Yueyue has also seen him, I find it a bit strange, his appearing seems somewhat contrived."
Hu Haiyun didn’t think it strange, "Our daily activity range is quite small, he’s also nearby, meeting him wouldn’t be too surprising, would it? Did you give him money before? And quite a bit, at that?"
Tong Yao nodded, "I did indeed give him something, Yueyue did too."
Hu Haiyun laughed, "That makes sense. If he’s out begging, encountering someone as generous as you is rare. Of course, he would like to stick around in this vicinity, just in case he bumps into you again and receives more money."
Tong Yao thought what Hu Haiyun said seemed very reasonable, but she still felt uneasy. It seemed like the man ran away as soon as he saw her.
The school bell suddenly rang inside the building, bringing Tong Yao’s thoughts back to the present.
A group of children ran out all at once, Hu Haiyun was excited beyond control, "I don’t know whether Yueyue would accept me as her godmother. If she doesn’t want to, that’s fine, but I hope she doesn’t dislike me for having this wish."
