“Let go! You money-losing goods!” A very murky male voice sounded, “Your mother cannot be saved anymore, it’s better if she died faster! All the money you earned should be given to your old man! How else could you exist today if not for me? Where did you hide the money? Give it to me!”

“In your dreams!”

“Little girl, you don’t want to live anymore?”

Then there was the sound of beating, and the sound of things being thrown. Bang! Crash!

“Host!! Hurry! Your teacher is being beaten!”

Of course, Jiang Xiaoman knew she was being beaten.

She wanted to go in and rescue her teacher.

After thinking about it, she pried a brick out from the wall, and busted open the door with one kick.

The two people who were arguing inside was surprised and looked at Jiang Xiaoman who suddenly appeared.

Holding a brick in her hand, Jiang Xiaoman pointed to the daughter-beating uncle, “You, quickly let go of my teacher, or I’m not going to hold back anymore!”

“Hoho, little girl, is this your student? I heard that your family is very rich. Lend Uncle some money?”

There was panic in Tao Tao’s heart. Without a word, she grabbed the uncle’s leg and shouted at Jiang Xiaoman, “Xiaoman, run! He’s a lunatic, run!”

This was Tao Tao’s father.

Tao Tao’s father kicked her away and walked towards Jiang Xiaoman.

Tao Tao’s eyes widened, her tears fell in a daze, and she couldn’t even feel the pain of being beaten.

Xiaoman was such a good child, how could she get involved in such a mess? She was still a child, how could she—

Jiang Xiaoman smacked Papa Tao unconscious with the brick.

He fell to the ground with a “Bang!” and dust flew everywhere. Tao Tao was shocked silly.

“Xiao—Xiaoman?”

“Teacher, are you okay?” Jiang Xiaoman squatted down and took Tao Tao’s hand. She found that she had scars on her hand and her body temperature was very cold. Jiang Xiaoman’s tears fell all of a sudden, “Wuu wuu wuu, are you okay? Shall we call the police to catch him? Why did he beat people? Why did he beat you? Did he steal your money?”

Tao Tao’s mouth was full of bitterness, and she could only choke up, “Xiaoman, you shouldn’t be here, you should go home quickly. Otherwise, your grandma and your uncle will be worried.”

Jiang Xiaoman shook her head and refused to leave. Tao Tao had to go with her or she wouldn’t leave.

“This is my home, where can I go?” Tao Tao looked at the man who had fainted on the ground, a flash of disgust appeared in her eyes. She had no intention of calling 120¹. “That’s my father, I can’t leave.”

“He is so awful.” Jiang Xiaoman felt more empathetic in an instant, “My father is also very awful.”

The child cried even worse.

Tao Tao was at a loss. She hugged her, and the two cried together.

Jiang Xiaoman sniffed and suddenly said, “Or how about this. Teacher, change your father. This father is not like you at all. He’s too fierce and likes to beat people.”

Change her father?

How could she change her father just because she wanted to? And right now, changing fathers was not the most important thing; the most important thing was that her mother couldn’t hang on for very long anymore.

Her dad took most of the money she earned from her hard work.

Tao Tao shook her head and said, “You are still young and don’t understand. Teacher’s affairs are very complicated, so you don’t need to worry about it. Don’t bother about him, Teacher will take you home first.”

“Teacher, are you short of money?”

Tao Tao’s face turned red and she suddenly felt very embarrassed.

She lowered her eyes and softly said “En”.

She was really short on money. She also lacked time.

The child was still young and ignorant. Tao Tao did not maliciously speculate on her intentions, but it was inevitable that she would feel sad.

As an adult, she also made a child see her shame. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself.

“How much do you need, teacher? I’ll lend it to you.”

Tao Tao was taken aback and shook her head, “Nobody’s money just appear out of nowhere. What Teacher needs is not a small sum. How can I ask you for your money? You should keep it to buy clothes and books. You don’t need to worry about Teacher.”

“But–”

“Even if I shamelessly accept it, it’s just a drop in the bucket. Your little amount of money is not enough.”

Tao Tao knew that the Jiang family was rich, but she had no idea how much money Jiang Xiaoman had.

She thought that even if Jiang Xiaoman had a wealthy family, she probably didn’t get that much pocket money every month.

And after several months of contact, Tao Tao found that Jiang Xiaoman did not act spoiled at all, and was even very frugal. There was a rusty mooncake box in the bedroom that she still kept and didn’t throw away.

She really… had no face to ask a child for money.

Tao Tao’s face turned from red to white, and she began to worry about her situation again.

Jiang Xiaoman was also lost in thought.

She didn’t know how much money her teacher needed, but if even her money wasn’t enough, then perhaps only her uncle could handle it.

Jiang Xiaoman said, “Teacher, you can go to my uncle. He is a good person, and he will help you. There are always more solutions than problems, and there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome.”

Tao Tao’s heart was moved, and a little hope grew in her heart.

If… If Mr. Jiang was willing to lend her money for her mother’s operation fees, she would work hard for Jiang Xiaoman in the future and be her private tutor for life!

But, would Mr. Jiang help her? After all, they were not relatives.

Tao Tao had mixed feelings in her heart.

After hesitating for a day, she finally went to Jiang Xing to borrow money.

“Mr. Jiang.” Tao Tao had a thin face, and before she could finish speaking, her face already turned red first, “I, I, I have something, I want to trouble you with…”

Jiang Xing raised his eyes to look at her, “Speak.”

“I… I want to get an advance on my salary.”

Jiang Xing was very easy to talk with, “Sure.”

Tao Tao forced herself to continue, “I, I know it would be very presumptuous to say, but I… I need a lot of money.”

Jiang Xing looked at her seriously, “How much does Teacher Tao want?”

“…Five hundred thousand.”

“…”
