X-Dragon Era

But now, when Xin Yun placed one million Gold Coins before him, he truly became frightened, realizing that he was just a child, how could he possibly accept so much money.

Seeing Ming Xuan's frightened appearance, Xin Yun furrowed his brows and said, "Gold Coin is certainly precious, but life is even more valuable. If it's for the sake of friendship, both can be discarded. How come... do you really think this mere million could be more precious than our friendship?"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Ming Xuan opened his mouth but couldn't utter a single word. Yes... although Gold Coin is valuable, when compared to life, it's nothing. And Xin Yun, for their sake, was willing to even give up his life. In comparison, this money was nothing.

Looking at Ming Xuan's moved expression, Xin Yun smiled and continued, "Let me tell you, since you're a partner of mine, Xin Yun, you definitely shouldn't be troubled by money. You don't need to worry about this stuff at all. Just cultivate properly, and in the future, let's earn big money together! What's a million?

In the future, we'll open ten or eight large gold mines, and in a single day, we won't even know how many millions we'll make." While speaking, Xin Yun stuffed the banknote into Ming Xuan's arms, the gesture was just like stuffing a piece of waste paper.

Clutching the crumpled banknote in his hands, Ming Xuan still couldn't speak a word. All these years, no one had ever respected him, no one had ever regarded him as a person. But he knew that Xin Yun was different, he truly considered him as the best partner, sharing life and death, let alone money.

On the other hand, after forcibly stuffing the banknote into Ming Xuan's hands, Xin Yun picked up another banknote and handed it to Yan Qingying with a smile, saying, "Here... this is for you, buy some clothes and jewelry you like, and other things suitable for a girl. We boys don't understand much about these things."

"I..." Stunned at Xin Yun's actions, and then at the banknote in her hands, Yan Qingying rarely showed a panicked expression. One million Gold Coin, oh heavens... she only cost 1,000 Gold Coin when she was bought.

Unfortunately, Xin Yun didn't give her the chance to refuse. After stuffing the banknote into Yan Qingying's hands, Xin Yun divided the remaining two banknotes, stuffed one into his own bosom, and handed the other to Yi Luo Xiang saying, "The treasury money shouldn't be touched lightly; keep this million for your pocket money."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang smiled sweetly. Although she was the last one to be given the money, the clever Yi Luo Xiang knew that being given money first actually implied rawness. Only those who were truly close didn't need to stand on ceremony and could be placed last. With this thought, Yi Luo Xiang sweetly accepted the banknote and carefully put it into her bosom.

At the same time, Xin Yun also put away his own banknote, turned his head, and said to Ming Xuan's mother, "As for Ming Xuan's mom, I won't be giving you money."

"Ah!" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan all exclaimed in surprise at the same time. How could this be? All of them who hadn't helped received money, but Ming Xuan's mom, who personally took care of everything in the shop, how could she not be given a single penny? This... this was too...

Seeing everyone's astonished looks, Xin Yun furrowed his brows and said with a wry smile, "Why are you all looking at me with that kind of eyes? You guys, don't just doubt me indiscriminately. Everything I do, I have my own considerations."

Xin Yun paused for a moment, then continued, "All of you are about my age, there's Yi Luo Xiang who's younger than me, and Yan Qingying and Ming Xuan who are older. But, overall, our ages are similar, so if I have money, I naturally want to share some for all of you to spend."

Having said that, Xin Yun turned his head to look at Ming Xuan's mom and continued, "But Ming Xuan's mom is different. In our special little family here, she is the sole elder. She's not just Ming Xuan's mom, but the elder for every one of us. I mean... I'm a child of just over eight years. How could I give pocket money to an elder!

That's utterly absurd..."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, the children subconsciously nodded. Yes... it's always the adults who give pocket money to the children; there's no such thing as children giving pocket money to adults. If that were really the case, then it would be utterly embarrassing for the adults.

As the children were contemplating, Xin Yun earnestly looked at Ming Xuan's mother and continued, "Perhaps it's the arrangement of fate that brought us together to form this special family we have today. Apart from Ming Xuan, Yi, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and I have all lost our parents, so you're not just Ming Xuan's mom, but the mom of each and every one of us."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Ming Xuan's mother's eyes instantly turned moist as she continuously nodded. Meanwhile, Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying eagerly looked up, unwaveringly watching Ming Xuan's mother. Since they could remember, they had never felt the love of a mother.

They truly yearned for maternal love, as intensely as orphans who had lost their parents at a young age, a yearning that ordinary people cannot understand.

Looking at everyone's complex expressions, Xin Yun earnestly said, "As the elder of all of us, how could I give you money? All the money from the shop, you can freely manage it, the entire household is entrusted to you."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Ming Xuan's mother excitedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, everything at home is up to me, I will definitely take good care of you all."

Smiling and nodding, Xin Yun continued, "However, we always just call you 'Ming Xuan's mom,' which seems a bit improper. How should we address you instead?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
