Fang Ruoxi squatted next to the trash can in the back alley of the bar, holding a cigarette in her mouth and squinting at the balance on her phone - eighty-two yuan and three cents.

"Looking for me?" Fang Ruoxi patted her trouser legs and stood up, smiling angrily, "Did your grandson win money again?"
