Chapter 2111: Your dad might be dead

The man next to Big Dipper shyly peered at Big Dipper before quickly nodding. “Thank you…”

“Blah, you’re insulting me! What’s there to thank? We’re brothers—good brothers! We’re loyal and self-sacrificing, hahaha!”

Big Dipper burst into laughter.

“Big Dipper, where’s your dad?” the shy boy suddenly asked after a long silence.

The dirty Big Dipper turned quiet.

A long time passed before Big Dipper finally replied, “My mom said my dad went far, far away, and it’ll be a long, long time before he can return.”

“Um… when will that be?” the timid boy asked.

“Winter probably,” Big Dipper answered cheerily.

“…”

“Haha, are you dumb? It’s all a lie to fool others. My dad either ran off with a mistress or he died. My mom must’ve told me that because she didn’t want to make me sad.” Big Dipper’s voice was tinged with some loneliness.

“Don’t look at me like that. You’re more tragic than me. At least I still have a mom while both your dad and mom are dead,” Big Dipper said with a sigh.

“Mn…” The shy boy quietly agreed.

“Forget about that boring stuff. Let’s see how much money that idiotic woman had!”

Big Dipper’s dirty hand excitedly pulled out the wallet.

“D*mn!”

The two boys stared at the bursting wallet, their eyes shining brightly.

“For you!”

Big Dipper took out more than half the bills and handed them to the shy boy.

“I can’t… This is yours. I can’t take it.” The shy boy shook his head.

“Why are you acting like a girl and dawdling? I’m giving it to you, so take it. I’ll need to use the rest of this to buy some medicine for my mom. She keeps coughing lately, and I’ve bought a lot of cold medicine, but it’s not improving,” Big Dipper said.

“You should keep it for Auntie’s medicine,” the timid boy said.

“It’s fine, I can just go and steal more. I have this skill which you don’t have, so take more,” Big Dipper cheerily replied.

The shy boy hesitated for a long time before finally thanking Big Dipper. However, he only took a few slips but wouldn’t take any more regardless of what Big Dipper said.

“Thank you…” The shy boy looked at Big Dipper.

“What’s there to thank? When you have money and I don’t, you’ve gotta lend more to me. Although I can’t guarantee whether I will repay it or not…” Big Dipper said after a moment of thought.

“Big Dipper, what’s your dad’s surname…? they shy boy suddenly asked.

Big Dipper was startled. “My surname is Big, so how could my dad’s surname be Small? Of course my dad’s surname is also Big!”

“Oh… Then I don’t think your dad ran off with a mistress. Otherwise, your surname would follow your mom’s,” the shy boy analyzed.

“En, you’re right!” Big Dipper bobbed his head. “Then my dad…”

“He’s probably dead,” the shy boy said with a tone of conviction.

Big Dipper looked at the other boy, dumbstruck. “I think maybe you should return the money to me?”

“How can you ask for it back once you’ve already given it away?”

A pleasant voice rang out from behind the two boys before the shy boy could respond.

The duo automatically turned around at the same time.

A slender and graceful teenage girl with an apathetic expression had been standing behind them since who knew when.

“Ah, idiotic woman!”

Big Dipper jolted in fright when he saw the girl and he immediately stumbled back.
