The boy had never seen so much money before. He quickly shook his head and waved his hands, saying, "No, no, no. I don't want it, you've already helped me a lot!"
Ling Momo said nothing more, and firmly stuffed the money into the boy's palm. A breeze blew, lifting her hat. Ling Momo hurriedly reached up to hold it down, but the boy still saw her face. His expression instantly stiffened, and his mouth opened slightly, nearly blurting out "Ling Momo," but then he saw her making a shushing gesture. She then gently put her hat back on, turned, and quietly walked away.
The boy watched Ling Momo walk far away before he finally lowered his head to look at the thick stack of money in his hands.
He really did need the money, had even dreamed of receiving such an amount, but now he couldn't feel any happiness at all.
No wonder that woman's rendition of "Forgive" was so captivating; she was the original singer, Ling Momo.
