Chapter 739: Chapter 739: I saw a beggar
Tong Yao nodded, "I saw a beggar."
Hu Haiyun was puzzled, "Do you have friends who can’t afford to eat? Does that person bear a grudge against you?"
According to Tong Yao’s personality, if her friends were down and out to the point they couldn’t afford to eat, Tong Yao would never sit by and watch them go begging, so there was only one answer: that person was not a friend of Tong Yao’s, but her enemy.
Tong Yao burst into laughter at Hu Haiyun’s words, "He’s not my friend, nor is he my enemy, I’ve just seen him a few tis. Yueyue has also seen him, I find it a bit strange, his appearing seems sowhat contrived."
Hu Haiyun didn’t think it strange, "Our daily activity range is quite small, he’s also nearby, eting him wouldn’t be too surprising, would it? Did you give him money before? And quite a bit, at that?"
Tong Yao nodded, "I did indeed give him sothing, Yueyue did too."
Hu Haiyun laughed, "That makes sense. If he’s out begging, encountering soone as generous as you is rare. Of course, he would like to stick around in this vicinity, just in case he bumps into you again and receives more money."
Tong Yao thought what Hu Haiyun said seed very reasonable, but she still felt uneasy. It seed like the man ran away as soon as he saw her.
The school bell suddenly rang inside the building, bringing Tong Yao’s thoughts back to the present.
A group of children ran out all at once, Hu Haiyun was excited beyond control, "I don’t know whether Yueyue would accept
as her godmother. If she doesn’t want to, that’s fine, but I hope she doesn’t dislike
for having this wish."
Tong Yao chuckled, "Don’t worry, Yueyue definitely won’t dislike you, last ti she was mumbling to
about how she hadn’t seen you in a long ti."
Hu Haiyun was very kind to Yueyue, each ti she visited she brought toys and snacks. In the minds of small children, anyone who shows them affection would receive their affection in return.
As they were chatting, Tong Yue’s figure dashed out from the school. She spotted Tong Yao right away in the crowd and cheerfully called out "Mummy". When she got closer she saw Hu Haiyun with her, which brought out an even brighter smile.
"Aunt Hu, you finally ca! I missed you so much! It’s been such a long ti since you last ca to see
and brother."
Hu Haiyun was beaming, she bent down to hug Tong Yue, "Yueyue, you’ve gotten taller lately, auntie has been thinking about you too, that’s why I ca to see you now."
"Not just taller, but I’ve also gotten fatter! Try pinching the flesh on my cheek!" Tong Yue guided Hu Haiyun’s hand to pinch her cheek, causing Hu Haiyun to burst into laughter.
Seeing their harmonious interaction, Tong Yao seized the opportunity to ask, "Yueyue, since you like Aunt Hu so much, how about letting her be your godmother?"
"Of course, that’s great!"
Tong Yue replied without any hesitation, both Tong Yao and Hu Haiyun’s eyes lit up instantly, they then heard her worryingly say, "Mummy, you asking
doesn’t count, you need to ask Aunt Hu whether she is willing to take
as her goddaughter."
"I do I do, I most certainly do." Hu Haiyun answered super fast, worried that if she was too slow Tong Yue might change her mind.
This scene reminded Tong Yao of when Guo Jinnian was proposed to, and she started laughing.
It seed like Tong Yue understood sothing, she suddenly realized, "I get it now, did you two already talk this through?"
"Really smart." Hu Haiyun pinched her nose in praise, "I wanted to acknowledge you as my goddaughter for a while now, but I was afraid you wouldn’t agree, so I never dared to bring it up. I discussed it with your Mummy first this ti, and since she agreed, I ca to ask for your opinion."
