Ling Xiao Qi looked at her with some fear and whispered, “Mummy, Grandpa is a good man. He paid for my medical bills, gave you money, found you a job, and even gave us a place to stay.”
Ling Sheng looked at her son before she said through gritted teeth.”That’s his responsibility!”
Ling Xiao Qi thought, “Mummy is angry.”
Ling Sheng bought groceries, daily necessities, shampoo, body wash, and makeup products, those which she frequently used in the past.
While the original owner behaved brazenly and shamelessly used Huo Ci’s products, she was not comfortable with using other people’s items, especially since these products catered to males.
Additionally, she specifically bought toddler-friendly products and pajama for Ling Xiao Qi. The pajama had baby alligators printed on it, looking immensely adorable.
It was only after this shopping spree that Ling Sheng realized how broke she was, and understood why the original owner refused to move out.
She only had less than 500 Yuan left in her bank account.
Huo Ci had given her 20,000 Yuan for her living expenses half a month ago, but the original owner had squandered most of it on people in the film crew in the name of being ‘generous.’

Every day, Ling Sheng treated the whole crew to bubble tea, other beverages, fruits, and even buying gifts for those ‘weighty’ figures, soon running out of money for her own needs.
Ling Sheng just finished cooking and brought the dishes over to the table. Xiao Qi also helped to set up the table.
The door opened, and Huo Ci’s figure walked in. Even when his face was covered with a mask and sunglasses, it could not cover up the air of elegance he exuded. He looked around at the clean apartment and the steaming hot dishes on the table, and was slightly stunned.
Had the cheapo girl changed?
She actually cleaned the house and cooked?
“You’re back.” Ling Xiao Qi was a smart child, he ran up to Huo Ci in a solicitous manner, helping him to get his slippers and took the bag.
The bag was quite heavy, and the little guy had to carry it tediously, his small body swaying side to side like a little penguin.
