Chapter 182 I can’t bear it
Zhan Jingchen turned to look at the little girl, his face serious and solemn, "Lolo, I want to help them."
Tang Xiluo nodded. He was in the position he was in. Wasn't this what he should do?
"Ah."
Zhan Jingchen looked at her and said nothing.
Tang Xiluo blinked. What happened next? He told himself this?
Zhan Jingchen thought about it and promised again: "Lolo, I won't let your living standard decline."
Tang Xiluo looked confused, but still nodded.
"Well...if everything is alright, let's go back." She was a little tired.
Suddenly, there was a noisy sound coming from the dilapidated temple.
The two turned around and saw several men in tattered clothes beating a little boy who was holding half a steamed bun in his hand.
Even though he was beaten all over, the little boy didn't say a word, and he held the steamed bun in his hand tightly, not letting go at all.
This half steamed bun might be his food for the next few days, so he would never let it go.
Zhan Jingchen had a cold face and was about to step forward when he found a figure that was faster than him.
Tang Xiluo didn't know what was wrong, but she felt touched. She saw her childhood self in this little boy. Didn't she also climb up in this way? She also grew up in this kind of environment.
It’s just that the environment I live in is even worse, and I’m more cruel than this little boy.
"stop!"
As soon as he said this, several beggars stopped what they were doing.
When they saw Tang Xiluo, an obscene smile appeared on their faces.
"Where did this little beauty come from?"
"Oh, that pretty little beauty, is she lost?"
"Why don't you play with us and we'll take you home?"
Tang Xiluo sneered, "Humph, you guys can't even eat, how dare you play with me?"
A hint of shame appeared on the faces of several people, but there was also anger at having their self-esteem hit.
Just as they were about to step forward, they were interrupted coldly by Zhan Jingchen who had followed them.
"How do you want to play? How about I play with you?"
Several men named Hanako looked in the direction of the sound and shrank their heads in fear.
The man had such a strong aura that it was obvious that he was not someone to be trifled with. In addition, the guards behind him were obviously highly skilled in martial arts.
So the beggars turned around and ran away. Lei Er and Lei San wanted to chase them, but Tang Xiluo raised his hand to stop them.
"No need to chase."
She squatted down and looked at the little boy. The little boy was holding a steamed bun in both hands, curled up into a ball. He looked alert, yet with a bit of innocence, at her.
Tang Xiluo snorted in annoyance. Even after being bullied like this, how come his eyes are still so innocent?
This kid was born in the wrong era and doesn't know the word "evil".
Helplessly, she said in a bad tone, "Are you disabled?"
The little boy looked confused, then shook his head.
"Since he is not disabled, then they have something that you care about?" The boy's parents? Or his sister? A relative, a friend, or something else he cares about?
The little boy still shook his head.
Tang Xiluo: “…”
"Since you are not disabled and have no leverage, why don't you resist? They have no weapons, and you have such a big stone next to you..."
The little boy still shook his head.
Tang Xiluo's mouth twitched, "Are you dumb and can't speak?"
The little boy still shook his head.
"..."
Tang Xiluo sighed, finally stood up and shook his head at the man.
"Let's go back."
Just then, a man and a woman came running from the distance. They looked like a couple.
The two men knelt straight in front of Tang Xiluo.
"Girl! Please save my child."
Zhan Jingchen was unhappy with the way they addressed the little girl, so he held her hand.
The couple was very perceptive and quickly changed their words.
"Madam, please have mercy on me and help my child."
Tang Xiluo frowned, "Your child?"
The woman quickly picked up the little boy who had just been beaten and pushed him towards Tang Xiluo.
"Madam, please help him. Although he is small, he is very capable. He can do any job you ask him to do. Please take him away."
Tang Xiluo glanced at the little boy. The little boy was curled up in his mother's arms, his eyes red and his little hands tightly grasping his mother's clothes.
Although he was young, he was old enough to be sensible. He knew that his mother was going to give him away. He didn't want to leave his parents, but he had no choice but to listen to them.
The man kowtowed quickly and said, "This child doesn't eat much, so he is very easy to feed."
Looking at the clothes worn by the two people in front of him, they must be rich or noble. If his child could catch their eyes, even if he became a slave for the rest of his life, he would never have to worry about food and clothing. It would be better than following them and begging everywhere, having no idea where to eat, and having half a dirty, stale steamed bun as food for several days.
Zhan Jingchen was somewhat moved, and Lei Er and Lei San were also persuaded, because they were also orphans who were rescued by the prince when they were young...
Tang Xiluo noticed the parents nearby who were eager to make a move. Several women were holding children in their arms, and their eyes were fixed on this side.
It seemed that as long as she nodded and let the little boy stay, they would all push their children over to her.
Zhan Jingchen was just about to nod. It was just a child after all. He had already helped countless people, so helping one more child wouldn't be a big deal.
However, the next moment, the little girl's cold and ruthless voice was heard.
"No! I don't accept useless things in my house."
Then he glanced at the little boy again and continued, "I won't accept the useless mud either..."
To be honest, she also felt that she had said something a bit too much, but he was already in the quagmire and he had to wake up and become stronger. He would never be able to be a flower in a greenhouse in this life, so he could only be his own safe haven.
I hope my words can inspire him, and I hope to see him again in the future.
Zhan Jingchen looked at the little girl who turned around and walked away, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself, his eyes deep.
The couple kneeling on the ground had no choice but to kowtow to Zhan Jingchen continuously.
"Sir! Please save our child." He and his wife were incompetent and could not protect their child.
Zhan Jingchen struggled internally for a moment, and finally took out the silver from his pocket and handed it over.
Then he turned around and left, following the little girl's footsteps.
However, what he didn't know was that the silver he threw to them was snatched away, and the couple only got a sesame-sized amount.
The little boy stared at the direction they left for a long time. Fortunately, the beautiful sister did not agree, otherwise he would have to leave his parents.
But what the pretty sister said was right, he had to resist in the future! Even if it meant risking his life, he had to resist.
Tang Xiluo said nothing and walked faster and faster.
She is not a kind person, but today she softened her heart.
