“Bingo!” Tong Lele flicked Mo Lisi’s forehead and nodded. “You’re a fast learner! Very smart!”
Mo Lisi ruffled his hair as he asked, “But Lele, based on the three days I lived with mommy, she didn’t seem like a woman who liked money… Are you possibly mistaken?”
Tong Lele stiffened, glanced at Mo Lisi, and knocked on his head. “Little fool! I just praised you for being smart!”
“Don’t you know that without money, what would mommy want you for? Are you handsome? Mommy only needs a handsome darling like me! Don’t you know that raising a child is very expensive these days?”
Tong Lele said earnestly, “If you don’t bring money to my household, mommy will have to work twice as hard to earn money! Money is already hard to earn these days!”
“Oh, you’re right… I’ve also heard on the news, raising children is expensive these days!” Mo Lisi nodded.
“Duh! What’s more, she has to raise a pampered little master like you! Of course it’d be expensive! So you need to bring enough money to my family, understood?” Tong Lele reached out and patted Mo Lisi on the head.
“Mhm, I understand! Don’t worry! I will bring money before looking for money!” Mo Lisi nodded seriously.
The mere thought of living with Tong Jiumo made Mo Lisi’s little heart pump faster.
“Yeap, remember to bring more, enough to support a priceless fairy and two children.” Tong Lele made a little heart using his thumb and index finger and blew a kiss towards him.
“Two children? Are you one of them?” asked Mo Lisi curiously after hearing Tong Lele’s words. “I can understand the part about supporting mommy, but why do I have to provide for you as well?”
“Aish, did you think I wouldn’t take a commission? I’m giving a portion of mommy’s love to you! I was the only one receiving her love back then, but now that you’re here, I have to share her love with you! Would it kill you to give me some money to survive? Is there a problem?”
“No, there’s no problem…” Mo Lisi really couldn’t find any fault in that argument.
If it were him, he would also want to monopolize Tong Jiumo’s love and affection, he would never share it with anyone.
However, Tong Lele was willing to give him half.
“Or you could just go with daddy, he changed a lot because of you. What’s more, he’s the head of the richest clan of this century. If you were his son, you would inherit everything in the future.” Mo Lisi suddenly thought of a counterpoint and tried to entice Tong Lele.
“”Hmm.” Tong Lele shook his head, uninterested. “If you dare to scheme against me, you will regret it.”
Mo Lisi was frightened by those words, and he quickly hugged Tong Lele’s arm. “Lele, I was just kidding.”
“Then you should hurry and make preparations on how to get the money! After all, you need time to transfer the money out.” Tong Lele suddenly felt hungry, so he said, “Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a meal!”
“Sounds good! I heard that our school canteen has a stall that sells amazing golden fishballs!” Mo Lisi also wanted to eat something.
“Wow, that’s such a coincidence, I like fishballs too!” Tong Lele raised his eyebrow, looking at Mo Lisi. “I didn’t expect us to share so much in common, even our preferences are similar.”
They walked and talked, and soon arrived at the golden fishball shop, it was a little wooden building.
Tong Lele sat down and ordered confidently, “Boss, give us the freshest, most expensive, and most delicious golden fishballs and Hong Kong-style milk tea!”
