Matthew didn't like how ruthless the waiter was, so he stood up and twisted the waiter's arm to almost
dislocate it.
Screaming in pain, the waiter pleaded, "It hurts! Let me go, let me go!"
Despite the scream, Matthew continued to twist his arm.
"So you can understand pain.Why did you do the same to that little girl, then?"
Understanding his motive, the waiter was afraid.He answered in a trembling voice, "What does this
have to do with you? This is a restaurant.She keeps coming here and disturbing the customers.So
I...Ihave to drive her out."
Upon hearing that, Matthew said coldly, "You can show her the way out, but not with violence! She's
just a child, and you're bullying her as an adult.Aren't you ashamed?"
The waiter couldn't think of a response, so he awkwardly pleaded, "S- Sir, it's my fault.Please let me
go; my arm is about to snap.."
Finally, Matthew lost interest in the waiter, so he pushed him aside.
The waiter stood aside madly, but he didn't dare to hurt Matthew.
The little girl had tears in her eyes.
Afraid of the waiter, she covered her ears with her hands and timidly looked at him.She feared that the
waiter would hit her again.
To comfort her, Matthew crouched down and softly said, "Everything is alright.Don't be afraid.Tell me,
why aren't you studying in school, but selling flowers here instead?"
However, the little girl lowered her head and dared not speak.
Seeing this, Matthew sighed and wondered what really happened for her to have such a timid
demeanor.
"Does your ear still hurt? Perhaps you are hungry? Want something to eat?"
Matthew asked a few questions, but the little girl kept her head down and didn't answer.
Just when Matthew was about to give up, the little girl raised her head and whispered, "Mister, d-do you
want a flower? It's very affordable, 5 cents for a stalk.Please get one..."
Upon hearing this, Matthew sighed and took the flower basket.
"Sure.I'll buy all of them!"
At once, the little girl widened her eyes and looked at Matthew in disbelief.
After all, she had never met such a generous man before! Then, Matthew took out a few hundred for
the little girl.
"There you go; it's sold out.Now just go home!"
The little girl accepted the money.
After counting the money, she shook her head.
"Mister, this is way too much.I-I will give back your change..."
However, Matthew waved his hand and said, "No.Keep the change"
Regardless, the little girl stubbornly returned the extra few hundred to Matthew.Then, she took out all
the money and calculated the exact change for Matthew.
Matthew was speechless; he couldn't decide whether this child was calculative or not.
After the little girl had finished with the change, she smiled brightly.
"Thank you so much, mister!" she said sincerely.
In response, Matthew patted the little girl's head.
"Alright, hurry up and go home now."
The little girl nodded, but her gaze lingered on the hamburger on Matthew's table.
Then, she slowly swallowed her saliva.
Upon seeing that, Matthew couldn't help laughing and handed the hamburger to the little girl.
"You haven't eaten yet, right? Here, this is for you"
His generosity made the little girl confused, but she still accepted the hamburger.Soon, Matthew gave
her a cup of orange juice as well.
The little girl had tears in her eyes.
With food in her hands, she bowed to Matthew before turning around and left.
At once, Matthew sighed and shook his head with a faint smile.He looked out of the window to continue
watching the child in the square.It was lunchtime, so there were fewer people in the square.
While he was watching, Matthew found that the little girl from earlier had walked over to the child.
At first, she cautiously looked around.
When she finally confirmed that no one was watching her, she jogged to the child's side and left the
hamburger with the orange juice there.
Soon, she hurried away as if she had done something wrong.
