As soon as Chi Enen entered the kitchen, he immediately circled the desk and checked it again.
He climbed onto the chair, pulled open the drawer of the desk, which was empty. His thin lips pursed even tighter. His gaze shifted back to the silk four-piece set on the bed.
Could the benefits from the BBC Broadcasting Station’s annual party be this good? Or could these have been won by a woman at the party raffle?
lie jumped off the chair and, wearing slippers much too big for his age, clattered back to his room. Then he dug out a telescope from the toy box and ran back to the balcony. He picked up the telescope and looked outside.
“…No suspicious men.”
After a round, he didn’t see any suspicious people nearby.
lie put away the telescope, muttering to himself, “Strange, there’s definitely a man’s scent in the house, how can there be no one? Could I really be overthinking it, and it was just a colleague of that woman who came over?” Looking left and right and seeing no suspicious people, he put the telescope back into the toy box, heeded Chi Enen’s words, ran to the bathroom, washed his hands with soap, found a “Bears Boggle” videotape, and started to play it.
At the same time, he held an iPad, unlocked it, and opened the stockmarket page.
The market, as he had expected, had plummeted to the bottom, and the A-shares were in distress. However, one stock’s trend was peculiar; although it was also falling, it wasn’t as fast as the others, with occasional, albeit barely noticeable, rises.
Chi Jingchen tapped his fingers on the screen, calculating the right moment to act.
lie closed the stock page and pulled up the bank card information. If Chi Enen were here, she would be shocked and speechless.
Because the balance wasn’t the thirty thousand she had imagined—it was a full one hundred thousand!
Chi Jingchen and Li Beijue’s profiles seemed to be carved from the same mold, both handsome in an unbelievable way! When they entered into thought, they were all in, rarely disturbed by the outside world.
lie had earned a few thousand selling lollipops for so long, plus some money from doing small business with little friends overseas, barely making up ten thousand. With the previous savings of thirty thousand, and the remaining sixty thousand… Chi Jingchen’s thin lips pressed into a line, as an image of a snotty, not-at-all ladylike little princess with an Apple face popped into his mind.
lie hadn’t expected that just casually mentioning his lack of funds, Han Xiaoru would bring him a bank card with sixty thousand the next day, saying carelessly that she had gifted it to him.
Although he had never intended to borrow money without repaying, sixty thousand was still a considerable amount. That fool, he wondered where she’d gotten so much money if it was stolen from her father, that would be troublesome.
No matter, he wouldn’t just take the money for nothing!
Chi Jingchen let out a sigh of relief and forced himself not to overthink.
lie reopened the stock page and dumped the entire one hundred thousand into the continuously losing stock.
Having done all of this, he put away the iPad calmly, his attention now focused on the “Bears Boggle” playing on the television.
Big Bear and Second Bear were pretending to be police officers to scare Bald Qiang. Bald Qiang, terrified, trembled inside the cabin, occasionally displaying adorably foolish expressions.
lie laughed heartily as he watched, showing none of the precociousness of someone who had just bet one hundred thousand.
It was at this time that Chi Enen came out carrying the prepared food.
“Baby Chi, dinner is ready; come and eat now.”
lie pressed pause on the television, leaped down from the sofa, and took his place at the dining table, well-behaved and proper.
The meal was eaten in extreme quiet. Once he finished, Chi Enen tidied up the bowls and chopsticks and came back out. She sat next to him, joining him in watching “Bears Boggle”….
