"I thought it was very advanced, but after seeing the Milky Way, it's just a drop in the ocean." Cheng Che explained in a low voice, and then turned his head to look at the assistant who was waiting not far away, "Brother Lin, I want the eleventh auction item, the jade bracelet."
The assistant nodded, lowered his head to send a message to his colleague, and then looked at Sha Jin inquiringly, "Young Master, how about you? Do you want anything?"
Shajin was startled by the name. After thinking for a moment, he pointed to an earring behind him and said, "Is this a diamond?"
"Yes." The assistant nodded in agreement and continued to send numbers without hesitation, "Just tell me what you like. The boss is happy to spend money."
Gold Dust: ...
Shajin looked at Cheng Che blankly, "Doting on children so much? And...what is the name of Young Master?"
"You'll call me by my nickname once you get to know me. You just arrived, right?" Cheng Che responded, sitting lazily on the sofa. "The money I spent on an antique is not even as much as he spent on chasing a little celebrity. Just spend it with confidence. This is all... a gift from a beggar? Oh, no, I also gave him my head to rub."
It’s hard to describe the gold dust in words. He lowered his eyes and continued to look through the auction list.
It sounds good, saying that he is just a young master who only knows how to spend money, but in fact...
Collecting gemstones and antiques are things that can appreciate in value and be sold quickly, and property like jewelry can be taken away without dispute, whether you are an adult living alone or your parents are passing away to divide up the property.
If there is a conflict, how can the older brothers and sisters have the nerve to ask for the younger brother's jewelry?
Pretty smart too.
I just feel that the atmosphere in this family might not be what it is today.
Half an hour later, Tang Muching came upstairs reeking of alcohol, his eyes a little red and watery, looking like he was drunk.
"You're drinking even though you can't." Cheng Che handed over a glass of ice water and made room on the sofa. "You're the only one in the family who can't drink, but you still like to drink."
"You are so disrespectful." Tang Muqing glanced at Cheng Che, picked up the blond child sitting next to Cheng Che and held him in his arms. He pinched the child's chin with his fingertips and turned the child into his arms, then closed his eyes, "Well, he is quite cute after being washed."
Gold Dust: ...
Sha Jin felt like a pillow and looked at Cheng Che with a blank look.
Cheng Che spread his hands, indicating that he was powerless, "Brother, will my mother come home tonight?"
"Yes, your father will come back too. Your brother has gone to pick up the elderly." Tang Muqing closed his eyes and spoke vaguely, seeming a little sleepy. "With a new member in the family, all the busy things have to be put on hold, right?"
Not to mention that this was brought back by the little ancestor himself to raise.
In the past, if you had a cat or a dog, you had to get together for a meal.
"Will your uncle come? You two will curse at each other across the dining table, and I'm afraid I won't be able to resist slapping you." Cheng Che asked in a low voice, pressing his phone to send text messages with emoticons to his family.
Tang Muching opened his eyes, thought for a moment, then turned his head to look at the assistant sitting behind him, "Go, send a message to those guys outside to hold the old man back. If he comes back and disturbs my family dinner, I will deduct his pocket money. By then, they won't have much money left."
The assistant sighed softly, lowered his head and silently completed his boss's instructions.
Tsk, look at this bloody thing.
When a son is in power, not only does his father have to obey him, but even his other sons and daughters have to obey his mood.
"Oh, divorce is so good." Cheng Che muttered in a low voice. After looking at Sha Jin, he reached out and squeezed Sha Jin's palm. "Don't be nervous. My brother doesn't eat children."
Sha Jin lowered his eyes and allowed himself to be hugged by a gentle and warm person.
"He's dreaming. I'll give him half of our family property after we divorce him?" Tang Muqing yawned and leaned back slightly to distance himself from the child. He stretched out his hand to knead the blond child's hair and cheeks and whispered, "I'll just waste time with him and send my mother out to find some handsome young guys to play with her. How nice it would be."
Sha Jin was speechless for a moment, his chubby face was deformed by the squeezing, and there was confusion in his eyes.
"It's pretty." Tang Muqing looked Sha Jin up and down, raised his hand and pinched Sha Jin's earlobe, "Brother will support you, remember to take care of me in my old age when you grow up."
Gold Dust: ...
what?
Is it so direct?
Whoever adopts a child will first say that they are raising you for their old age?
"We won't raise her. Let her little lover outside raise her." Cheng Che muttered, and just as he was about to say something, his hand was suddenly grabbed.
A chubby kid moved over and stared at Cheng Che with wide eyes, "You're here and you don't even want to play with me! Am I not your best friend?!"
The child's white eyelashes drooped, and he seemed a little angry. His hair and skin were pale.
Cheng Che raised his eyes, and after a long pause, he opened his mouth, "Did you get your teeth fixed?"
"Ohh Ohh ohh!"
As soon as the words fell, the child burst into tears, "It can't be fixed! My dad said he would give me a green tooth! What's the difference between this and not brushing your teeth after eating vegetable leaves!"
Cheng Che: ...
Cheng Che hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and patted the child's head, "Be good, don't cry, it will heal in a while, but my scar will be with me forever."
The crying stopped instantly, and the pale little boy secretly looked up at Cheng Che, "Then are we still best friends?"
"It's a hammer." Cheng Che said expressionlessly, "You will stab me in the back!"
He will never forget how he was backstabbed and became a poor man!
At this point, Cheng Che pointed at the gold dust and said, "Call me brother."
The white child secretly glanced at the gold dust, but was slightly startled, "He...his eyes are so beautiful, with so many colors."
Sha Jin was stunned and glanced at the child in front of him.
White hair, white eyelashes, pale skin, but... a little sickly? Both eyes have a faded look.
"Hello, my name is Yin Zi." The little boy looked up at the gold sand and stretched out his hand with a smile, "I'm Cheng Che Che's best friend! But don't be afraid of me. My mom said I'm so white because I'm sick. I won't be afraid of you when I recover."
Gold Dust: ...
Shajin silently extended his hand and shook it, "Hello, I'm Kakawashia."
The little boy chuckled and put his head in Tang Muqing's arms, "Brother, can you take me home to play tonight? I'll be your pillow."
"No." Tang Muqing smiled gently and said bluntly, "I have a date tonight."
Yin Zi was slightly stunned, then turned to look at Cheng Che and said loudly: "Brother is dirty! We don't want him anymore!"
"That's my brother." Cheng Che said expressionlessly.
Yin Zi was angry, "Your brother is my brother!"
"Ask your mother to give birth to a brother for you! No!" Cheng Che continued with a blank expression.
Yinzi puffed up her cheeks and looked at Cheng Che. After a while, she quickly ran away, still shouting, "Mom! Give me a brother! Cheng Cheche has so many brothers, but she won't give me any!"
Gold Dust: ...
He's a sick child, what's wrong with giving way? !
After a while, Tang Muching finally got rid of the dizziness brought by the alcohol. He patted the gold dust, held it and placed it next to Cheng Che, then stood up and left. "Let's go. We still have to make money."
The man picked up his glass again and walked towards the noisy scene downstairs.
Shajin retracted his gaze and looked at Cheng Che, "It seems that the people around you are not normal."
“Hmm?” Cheng Che looked up at Shajin, thought for a moment and shook his head, “No, this kid… is just… a dog-skin plaster… He’s been sticking to me since he was young.”
Shajin nodded thoughtfully and asked in a low voice, "Are you sick?"
"Yes, it's a genetic disease." Cheng Che nodded and pointed at himself. "I'm not actually sick, but I have a little criminal tendency in my genes. He...his disease is very troublesome. His eyesight is greatly affected and he can't see the sun. Moreover, he is younger than me and the only child in the family, so he can only play with me."
Cheng Che glanced in the direction the child left, then looked away and continued to lazily ask, "Do you want to eat anything? I'm going to send a message to Auntie to order some food."
Sha Jin was also lost in thought.
The meal is not important, what is important is that there seem to be a lot of people there in the evening.
……
“What beautiful eyes!”
"A beautiful child, but a little thin."
"Add one dessert, and that's six meals a day."
"Is the room ready?"
"Everything is ready, but I'll stay with Cheche for two days first. I'll have to see what he thinks and buy some things."
"It's the holiday, let my brothers and sisters take me out shopping."
"The biggest problem is malnutrition, but it's okay, let A-Qing take care of it."
Amid a series of sounds, the gold sand moved from one person's arms to another, and a pair of hands rubbed her body, making her cheeks red, and she held a red envelope in her arms.
After a long time, Sha Jin finally returned to the bedroom. After being taken for a tour, he was sent back to Cheng Che's room.
His eyes were extremely dazed, as if he had lost his mind after being rubbed.
"You stay at my place for the next two days. Once you get familiar with me, you can live alone."
Cheng Che dug out the sheets and quilt covers from the closet and started to change them. He said calmly, "The red envelopes are all in cash. I'll take you to deposit them into your card tomorrow. They don't count as pocket money, but you can spend them freely. It's not illegal. You can buy whatever you want, but you can't buy a house or a car."
Shajin placed the red envelope in his arms on the desk and sat on the stool in a daze, "Is your family so receptive?"
Cheng Che stretched out his arms and shook the quilt to spread it on the bed. Then he turned his head to look at Sha Jin, "Because I have checked your identity and confirmed that you are indeed a homeless child and know me. I also want you to stay at home. Otherwise, even if you are adopted, you will be raised somewhere else. For example, I will give you a house, hire a nanny to take care of you, and have an assistant visit you every month."
Shajin sighed heavily, "Will there still be so many people tomorrow?"
"No." Cheng Che shook his head and went to the bathroom to adjust the water temperature. "Tomorrow they will go back to complete their previously suspended work and travel one after another. Usually, there is only me and my brother who looks after me at home. After all, my sister is of a different gender, so it is sometimes inconvenient."
"Oh." Shajin replied blankly, and glanced at the bed sheets that Cheng Che had changed. "Why did you change the bed sheets before going to bed?"
"Because I was lying down during the day." Cheng Che threw the clothes and sheets he had changed into the dirty clothes basket outside the door, and then explained, "I don't accept the clothes I wear when going out directly touching my bedding. Oh, by the way."
Cheng Che paused, raised his eyes and looked at Sha Jin, "Auntie only cleans the public areas, and you have to clean your own room yourself. Can you do housework?"
Gold Dust: ...
Yes, it will.
Under Sha Jin's speechless gaze, Cheng Che dug out a few bottles of medicine from the drawer, poured them out, divided them into two portions, put them on toilet paper and handed them to Sha Jin, "Vitamin calcium tablets and so on, take them, then take a shower, brush your teeth, and change into pajamas. You have to start studying tomorrow, otherwise you won't be able to get into my school."
"The teacher shouldn't be as serious as Latio, right?" Shajin's eyelids twitched.
Cheng Che tilted his head and looked at Shajin. "It's not okay for someone like Professor Latio to be my teacher. People in this world are very perverted, especially the young ones. He can be blocked by students and can't leave the classroom during a class."
Not to mention clothes that expose the chest and arms, schools here won’t accept them!
Cheng Che glanced at the gold dust and pushed it towards the cabinet next to the desk.
He used the key to open the cabinet, revealing a safe embedded in the wall.
