"Madam, can you give me something to eat?" A childish voice came, and a dirty little hand stretched out in front of Shen Meimei.

Although the hand was dirty, the fingers were long and white.

Shen Meimei looked up and saw a little girl of about eight or nine years old standing in front of her.

Her hair was tied into two messy pigtails, and her clothes were tattered, but her eyes were big and bright, and her eyelashes were thick and curled, fluttering like two small fans, and she looked very cute.

Seeing Shen Meimei looking at her, the little girl smiled shyly, revealing two little canine teeth.

Shen Meimei's heart moved, and she waved to the little girl:

"Come, sit over here."

The waiter nearby heard what Shen Meimei said and hurriedly stopped the little girl:

"Hey, you little beggar, why are you still going in there?"

He glared at the little girl unhappily:

"Go away, don't make trouble here. This is a distinguished guest, how can you get close to him?"

Shen Meimei frowned:

"Waiter, please don't chase her away. This child is so pitiful."

She looked at the little girl and said softly:

"Little boy, what's your name?"

The little girl blinked:

"My name is Xiaoyu, thank you ma'am."

She looked at the waiter, then at Shen Meimei, and whispered, "Madam, I won't go in. I'll just sit at the door."

The waiter waved his hand impatiently:

"Okay, okay, just wait outside. When the guests have finished eating, I'll bring you some leftovers."

After saying that, he turned and went into the store.

Shen Meimei looked at Xiaoyu and couldn't help feeling a trace of pity in her heart.

She thought for a moment and said to Xiaoyu:

"Xiaoyu, come eat with us. We ordered a lot of dishes and we can't finish them anyway."

When Xiaoyu heard that she could sit down to eat, a smile of surprise immediately appeared on her face. She quickly knelt down and kowtowed:

"Thank you, ma'am! Thank you, ma'am!"

Shen Meimei quickly helped Xiaoyu up:

"Get up quickly. There is no need to perform such a grand ceremony."

She turned around and told the waiter, "Bring another pair of chopsticks and a bowl for Miss Xiaoyu."

Although the waiter was reluctant, he still did it.

Soon, Xiaoyu sat next to Shen Meimei and began to eat her meal voraciously.

Xiaoyu was full soon. She looked at the rice and whispered:

"Madam, can I have some more? My mother and brother are sick at home. My father went out fishing and hasn't been back for several days. We really have nothing to eat at home."

The girl's voice was very low. Shen Meimei was moved and asked the waiter to take out oil paper and wrap some dishes and rice for the girl.

Soon, a dozen beggars gathered at the restaurant entrance, each looking at Shen Meimei with longing eyes.

"Madam, let's go after dinner. We can't take care of so many children. What if there is any danger?" Jin Xi became alert.

"Waiter, go make a few more dishes and let the children come in to eat. It's my treat today!" Shen Meimei waved her hand and asked the children to come in.

There was a slightly older child among the children, who should be the eldest among them. He saluted to Shen Meimei and said:

"Thank you, ma'am, for inviting us to dinner. I am Hong Shiwu, the leader of the Beggars' Sect. If you need anything in the future, please let me know and I will definitely see to it!" Hong Shiwu is a little boy with a lot of smarts in his words.

Shen Meimei invited them to dinner without ever thinking of anything in return. She just smiled and said:

"Okay, the food is here, you guys eat first, and when you're full, take me to see where you live!"
