Chapter 49 Got no money!

“Cheat prince, I didn’t know it was a bad gesture,” An Xiulan said in a soft voice. “I thought it meant sorry.”

“Why did you think that?” Han Zixin couldn’t help but ask. Even he was curious to think why would she think of all the bizarre things in the world.

“On the first day of my school, a student bumped into me and he made this gesture,” An Xiulan whispered, “I thought it was his cool way of saying sorry. And when I bumped into you that day, I showed the same gesture. I didn’t know it had a bad meaning.”

“Don’t fall into cool moves and tactics. Next time, if you want to say something, use words, not signs. It’s less confusing this way,” Han Zixin said before walking away.

An Xiulan nodded her head.

Talking with Yan Shan had failed. He was smart enough to dodge all the questions asked by Han Zixin and An Xiulan all week.

An Xiulan and Han Zixin were following Yan Shan’s moves as they wanted to clarify if the latter was certainly dating but they failed miserably.

This Yan Shan was too smart.

Currently, both of them were sitting on a bench in the school’s old playground mulling over their back to back failures. It had been four days but they had no answer to give to the teacher.

“What will we do now?” An Xiulan asked.

“Our plans are not effective,” Han Zixin muttered.

It was at this moment when Han Zixin’s phone chimed.

Chen Xiao Hua: Ge, that Yah Shan is going out with his girlfriend tomorrow for dating. I get the information from my authentic and secret source.

Along with the text he sent a praise me sticker.

Han Zixin snorted, looking at his phone.

“What happened?” An Xiulan asked as she saw his ridiculing smile.

Han Zixin showed her the text and she pondered for a moment.

“What app are you using?” An Xiulan asked. This app that he was using had some cool features.

“Don’t tell me you don’t have We Chat?” Han Zixin asked in surprise. Oh, he shouldn’t be surprised as what didn’t happen with the entire world, happened with this girl. With a sigh, he said, “Pass me your phone.”

An Xiulan naturally passed her phone to him. But before he could help her, the bell rang and they had to go to class back. She was disappointed but still, she followed him.

After school ended, both of them were standing outside the school. Since they had an extra class that both of them bunked for no reason, they sneaked out of the school along with other children.

Boss Han’s bunking habit was contagious. Even An Xiulan was learning a thing or two from him. All bad though.

“Buy me a candy,” Han Zixin suddenly said as he remembered how she didn’t give him any candy today. It was unsettling for him to spend an entire day at school without candy.

“Why?” An Xiulan asked with a furrowed brow. She was out of her candy stash. Her mom had put her on a serious diet after finding her snack collection. She loved sweets but her mom had put her sweets under serious supervision as An Qinyan had no idea that all the candies and desserts went to Han Zixin’s belly, not just her.

“Because your mood is not good,” Han Zixin said. Little blockhead was too quiet in class. Since the time history teacher changed his method of teaching, An Xiulan was grasping more quickly and efficiently but today she was lost in history class too. It was the only class where she genuinely understood something. He was aware that she was worried about her double monthly exams that started in two weeks or so.

“Shouldn’t you buy me candy instead?” An Xiulan said. His logic was out of her understanding sometimes.

“I got no money,” Han Zixin said, showing

her empty pocket. His grandfather had given him an ultimatum. If he didn’t score well in these monthly exams, he would have to go live with his grandfather at his new villa. Since the next two days were weekend holidays, he was going to live at his parents’ (adopted) house, not his grandfather’s.

“I got no money too,” An Xiulan said with pursed lips. “I only have these.” She showed him her bank cards. “What can we buy with them?”

It was Han Zixin’s turn to be speechless. He knew she was cracked in her head but didn’t know to what extent.

“Do you know you can shop with these cards?” Han Zixin asked her.

An Xiulan shook her head.

Han ZiXin: who did I make deskmates with? Can he please change his deskmate?

Never mind.

Since he knew she was a bit stupid, he was going to teach her how to live like a human being.

After all, he couldn’t afford to be embarrassed because of her anymore, right?

He was doing everything for his dignity, no other reason.

Yes. Yes. He was going to teach his Little blockhead how to survive in a modern era since her head was lost in the stone age.

When he took her cards in his hand, his eyes went wide for a moment. Why was she using the legendary black card?

“Little blockhead?” He immediately called out her name.

“Hmm?”

“What does your father do?”

“Breaking the heart of innocent women like my mom.” An Xiulan said with a straight face.
