Chapter 249 - 206: When Children Grow Up, They’re Out of Mother’s Control_3
"And don’t think you can just hire someone for me! We’re best friends, but I can’t keep taking advantage of you like this! What would that make me? If you keep this up, I’m seriously going to be mad!"
Bai Shasha knew Li Si had money now, but she didn’t want their friendship to be tainted by financial issues.
"What would it make you? You just think too much! Didn’t we say before that I’d make money to buy you things? Why is it suddenly not okay now?"
Li Si, influenced by the memories of her past life, constantly looked for opportunities to repay Bai Shasha’s kindness.
Bai Shasha looked at Li Si, half annoyed, half amused: "Si, you’re still the same. Even after you got rich, you didn’t change. But this is about me—what if it were someone else? Didn’t you ever hear the saying, ’Grateful for a cup of rice, resentful over a bushel’?
If you go all out to help someone, over time they’ll start thinking they’re entitled to it. Then, the moment you fall short once, it turns into resentment.
You don’t want us to end up like that someday, do you?"
Li Si raised her hands in surrender, unable to stop herself from laughing. "Fine, you’re right! It’s my fault, okay?" She was a little impatient, but she’d find a way. People could be hired to send meals to Bai Shasha, or they could simply hang out for meals together often—it wasn’t hard.
"That’s more like it! By the way, tell me, where did you buy this monkey? Get me one too, will you? If I had a little monkey to keep me company, I wouldn’t be so lonely." Bai Shasha’s eyes were filled with envy—this little monkey was absolutely adorable.
Li Si didn’t tell the truth. She just made up an excuse, saying Leng Mochen had bought it through someone and promised to get one for Bai Shasha when the chance arose, ending the conversation there.
