C1374 I've Been a Beggar for Thousands of Miles

In fact, beggars were quite common in New York. There were even people who wrote articles to praise the difference between foreign beggars and domestic beggars. In their opinion, this foreign beggar could be considered a high-end and classy beggar. They did not even become beggars to survive, but to experience a different kind of life.2

Of course, these were all nonsense. In the end, beggars did not have money. And this beggar in front of him didn't look any different from domestic beggars. He was also dirty, wearing dirty t-shirt and jeans. His legs were also covered with a broken suit that he had picked up from nowhere. This beggar usually lowered his head. Occasionally, he would look up and look around, and then he would immediately lower his head. His eyes showed a bit of panic.

The beggar's face was also dirty. It was unknown how long it had been since he had washed it. Xiao Ge stared at the beggar for a while, but still found him somewhat familiar. However, he still could not recognize who it was, but he was certain of one thing. It was that although this beggar dressed like a man, but in reality... She was a woman.

"Hubby, what's wrong?" Judy noticed that Xiao Ge had been looking at the beggar and could not help but ask.

"That beggar is a woman and she looks a little familiar." Xiao Ge honestly said, "It can't be such a coincidence that we can meet a beggar we know here, right?"

"Hubby, maybe you have seen her before. We can go and take a look. You may have seen her before, but you don't remember her. She might know you." Judy reminded.

"That's right. A man as great as me will definitely remember me." Xiao Ge immediately nodded and walked towards the beggar with Judy in his arms.

This beggar looked like a Mandarin person, but there were actually quite a few Mandarin people in New York. However, Manhattan didn't seem to have many people here. Most of the people here were just here for a vacation. And they were like the two women who had just talked about that Chinaman beggar. When they saw this Chinaman beggar, they were afraid of losing face. They quickly hid far away, not to mention giving some money to their fellow countrymen.

The beggar had been sitting there all along, wearing a hat in front of him. There were a few coins and a few notes in the hat. However, it seemed like the biggest denomination was only one dollar. When he saw someone coming over, not only did she not raise her head to beg, she even lowered her head. It was only when she suddenly saw that there was an additional twenty dollar note in the hat in front of her that she finally could not help but raise her head.

She first saw Judy. Because the money was given by Judy, she whispered a thank you in English. Then she saw Xiao Ge beside Judy, and then she seemed to be stunned.

"You, you..." The beggar stuttered, as if he wanted to say something, but he just kept saying the word you. Her voice sounded a little unnatural, as if she did not know how to speak. Maybe it was because she had not spoken Mandarin for a long time.

"You know me?" Xiao Ge asked directly, "I think you look familiar, but I can't remember who you are."

"Are you Xiao Ge?" The female beggar finally asked the complete question. The way she looked at Xiao Ge was filled with fear, anxiety, shame, and a trace of fear.

"You really know me." Xiao Ge was a little surprised, "But, who are you? I should have some impression of you."

"I, I am Wang Jia." The female beggar said carefully.

"Wang Jia?" Xiao Ge started to think about the person with the name, and then he finally remembered. " Oh, I get it. You are the one in our class who always likes to make things difficult for Hsiao Chan. The Wang Jia who ran naked on the sports field back then, right?"

Xiao Ge had been studying in Ningcheng University for three years. But in reality, he had stayed in the Heavenly Dao Immortal Bracelet for two years, and in the other year... In total, he would only be in the school for a month, and the time spent in class would be even shorter. This also caused the students in his followers to be unfamiliar with him, and most of them waited until he left. He had no impression of them.

Of all the classmates in the class, the one Xiao Ge was most familiar with was Hsiao Chan. After that was Zhang Xiaopang, and besides these two, Wang Jia could be considered to have a rather deep impression, because she had bickered with Hsiao Chan over and over again. There was even one time when she bet with Hsiao Chan that she would run naked, so she had left some impression in his mind.

It was because of this that he felt that Wang Jia looked familiar. However, this beggar like Wang Jia now clearly had a huge change in her appearance from before. Not to mention that she had become much thinner and haggard, her face was still in a mess. Therefore, Xiao Ge only felt that she looked familiar. If she did not say her name herself... He definitely wouldn't have remembered.

"Yes, I, I am that Wang Jia." Wang Jia raised her head and looked at Xiao Ge. Tears unknowingly flowed out. Her voice was a little choked up. "Xiao Ge, I am sorry. I was just a little jealous of Hsiao Chan. Actually, there was no deep hatred between us. It was just a fight. I know I don't have the right to ask you to help me. But... I really don't have a choice right now. Can you save me? I really can't find anyone to help me. I know you're very capable... "

Wang Jia said with tears streaming down her face. Her words were also somewhat incoherent. Her current appearance was quite helpless. It could be imagined that she had not been living well recently.

"Why did you become a beggar here?" Xiao Ge interrupted Wang Jia's words and could not help but ask.

Regarding Wang Jia's current situation, Xiao Ge did not have much sympathy. After all, he had nothing to do with Wang Jia. Xiao Ge was never the kind of person with overflowing sympathy. But he was really curious. He really could not understand. Why did this Wang Jia suddenly become a beggar? And why did she come all the way here to be a beggar?

"I, I was tricked into coming here." Wang Jia wiped her eyes. "I don't have money, a passport, and nothing. Besides, there are gangs looking for me. If they find me... I don't dare to call the police. The girl who escaped with me was the one who called the police. I was found by the gangs, and now I don't know whether I'm alive or dead, so I don't dare to call home. I don't want to implicate my parents, and I don't want them to know that I'm in such a miserable state... "

Wang Jia's emotions gradually calmed down as she chatted with the two of them. She also recognized Judy. She was with Judy and Xiao Ge. Wang Jia did not find it strange. She had long known that Xiao Ge was a very capable person. She had also always thought that Hsiao Chan could have today. It was all because she had hooked up with Xiao Ge.

The three of them were chatting on the street, but it was not surprising. There were often people chatting with beggars overseas, and Xiao Ge and Judy finally knew how Wang Jia ended up in such a situation.

Jealousy was really not a good emotion. The reason Wang Jia fell into such a situation could be said to be because of her jealousy towards Hsiao Chan.
