The Passerby I Married Is The Richest Man! [Transmigration Into A Book]

Chapter 22 Part 6: Saving a Kid!

Under the dim light, Huo Xiang slowly approached the man crouching in the corner.

Feeling someone coming, Xi Xixi not only didn't look up but buried his head in his arms instead. He still appeared worried that someone would recognize him, especially in such a bad situation.

"Don't hide, I know you, you are called Xi Xixi right?" Huo Xiang blurted out, getting straight to the point.

Bai Zhen Zhen was hiding in the corner of the alley, stealthily sticking her head out, observing each and every move over there.

Xi Xixi raised his head, his bloodshot eyes bewildered and panic-stricken.

When Huo Xiang saw his appearance, he finally understood Bai Zhen Zhen's words – he indeed was a kid who hadn't experienced the world. When he looked at the surroundings again, he discovered many cans on the ground, and next to Xi Xixi's thigh there was a bundle of still unfinished beer.

What, having a drink ne? Can I also have a drink?" Huo Xiang asked.

Seeing Xi Xixi keeping quiet, he introduced himself: "You don't remember me? Last time we met at the shopping mall, you won the prize but didn't take it. Then my girlfriend went up on the stage to receive the prize, and I proposed to her on the spot."

"It's you..." Xi Xixi reacted.

Huo Xiang raised an eyebrow and pointed at the beer beside Xi Xixi.

Xi Xixi hesitate for a moment, then took out a can of beer and handed it to Huo Xiang.

After taking it, Huo Xiang sat down next to Xi Xixi.

"Come one, if there's something making you unhappy, you can tell me."

Xi Xixi bit his lip, but didn't speak.

Huo Xiang said: "Then let me tell you a story."

Seeing that Xi Xixi didn't refuse, Huo Xiang started talking nonsense.

"I am an orphan. Since I was a child, I didn't know who my parents were or where my family lived. As I wandered, I would see other children with their parents, but I was completely alone. In my heart, I felt very sad and also inferior. And when you roam around, you know, the food isn't enough and the clothes aren't warm, and I was often bullied. In a word – miserable!"

"But I never lost hope. I thought, I am good and honest, a hardworking child ah, Heavens can't not like me. They must be testing me ne! So I kept on living, tenaciously, letting myself become better and stronger! Slowly, I was acknowledged and gained respect, even those who looked down on me before couldn't help but cheer for me! "

"Oh, by the way, just two days ago I found long-lost relative..."

Bai Zhen Zhen, who was watching them stealthily, could roughly hear some of the conversation's contents, and she was very pleased inside.

She indeed didn't pick the wrong person. When it came to talking bullshit in deadly earnest, if her brother Xiang called himself second, no one would dare calling themselves first.

Suddenly, the system's voice rang in her head.

---System: "Host, are you sure you want to do it this way?"

---Bai Zhen Zhen: "What's the matter? I am also willing to help others ah! I am just doing it in a different way."

---System: "However, according to the book settings, after the third male lead experiences this incident, he develops very strong feelings for the female lead..."

---Bai Zhen Zhen: "That's right ah, but I just want to save him, not for him to fall for me ah!"

---System: "Er, aren't you afraid that Xi Xixi, he..."

---Bai Zhen Zhen: "???"

---System: "... will fall for... er... you know..."

---Bai Zhen Zhen: "!!!"
