76 I Swear
Qin Huai watched as Little Ah Yu ran to his side. He frowned and turned to the side.
Little Ah Yu was about to pounce on Qin Huai when she was caught off guard and fell to the ground.
Little Ah Yu was stunned. When she turned to look at Qin Huai, her eyes were filled with disbelief.
âLittle Brother?â
[This is a brat! Kid, donât like him anymore!]
Meatball was about to die of anger. How could he let its treasure fall to the ground?
How painful!
It didnât matter if she wore thick clothes!
Qin Huai stood still, but his fingers behind his back trembled.
He had already made an exception yesterday and made a wreath for her. He could not let her get close to him today.
The more innocent she acted, the more likely it was a trap.
Even in his last moments, he hoped that he could remain clear headed.
âLittle Brother, you didnât do it on purpose, right?â Little Ah Yuâs eyes were filled with tears, but she was smiling.
However, her smile was too big and the tears in her eyes fell. She quickly wiped them away and lay on the ground without getting up. She only twisted her neck and looked at Qin Huai stubbornly.
Qin Huai turned his face away, not wanting to answer her.
âI understand...â A very disappointed voice sounded.
Qin Huai thought to himself, âIs it very painful?â
He should have caught her. After all, she was a little girl.
It was not her fault that she had been used.
With that thought, he turned his gaze over and wanted to pull Little Ah Yu up, but he saw that the little person was already walking away slowly.
She walked so slowly that Qin Huai only needed to run two steps quickly to catch up to her.
But he did not move.
She must be pretending to be pitiful.
âYoung Master.â Chi Jia ran over, panting.
Qin Huai instantly retracted all his expressions and deliberately regained his expressionless face.
Chi Jia looked at the deliberately stern expression on the young masterâs young face and inexplicably felt that he seemed a little different today.
âSpeak.â Qin Huai raised his chin.
âThat assassin from the Blood Rain Pavilion has broken bones all over his body, and his words are not smooth. I canât find out more. However, he has a yellow-grade killing order. He must be chasing someone, but he hasnât succeeded yet.â
The rules of the various sects in the martial world were different, but assassin organizations basically had a set of common rules, such as the Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow Level Hunting Orders.
The worst was the yellow level. This meant that the mission was relatively simple, and the target was relatively weak.
âTherefore, I guess that he probably entered this place by mistake and is not here for us.â
Chi Jia felt that this was already the most remote place.
Moreover, Chi Bing had already dealt with the various tails previously. When they came, they also asked a portion of the people to leave fake news along the way. They probably could not catch up.
Qin Huai nodded, indicating that he understood.
After reporting, Chi Jia continued to work. He still had to go back to building the house.
Yesterday, Young Master stayed at Hu Sanâs house. When he woke up in the morning, his entire body itched. In the end, he realized that he had fleas on his body.
It was not easy for Young Master to take a bath and clean his body. He also burnt some incense to get rid of the fleas. But he did all that only to hear that Ah Yu had run to the doctorâs house to see a bloody person.
Although Young Master did not say it, Chi Jia knew that he definitely wanted to see the little girl.
He was afraid that she would be frightened.
âI just saw Ah Yu running towards the river...â Thinking of Little Ah Yu, Chi Jia reminded silently.
Qin Huai pursed his lips and pretended not to hear anything, only walking towards Hu Sanâs house.
âYoung Master, your birthday is in a few days. In the past, Madam would send you a set of clothes. This year-â Chi Jia thought of this and said,â Should we tell Madam our location so that Madamâs people can send the birthday gift over? â
Qin Huai looked at Chi Jia, his black eyes as deep as a spring.
Chi Jia knew that this meant that he did not agree.
âYoung Master, I shall take my leave first!â He still had to chop wood!
The village was very safe, and the only killer was almost crippled so there was no need to worry at all.
Qin Huai did not continue to stroll around the village. In the end, he returned to Hu Sanâs house.
Around him were noisy people who were busy building a new house for him.
Qin Huai took out a book from his luggage and sat in the courtyard, reading it under the noise.
It was as if nothing around him could enter his eyes or ears.
When Third Aunt Hu passed by and saw this, she could not help but say to her eldest daughter-in-law beside her, âLook at this child. Heâs so young, but he can already remain focused amidst the chaos . In my opinion, we really canât find such a quiet child in our Hu Family Village.â
âIf our child is even half as good as him, Iâll have to burn incense to thank the Gods!â
The children in the village were all like naughty monkeys. They only had the interest to raise the roof. How could they have such a calm composure?
...
âEven that man calls him Young Master. This means that his family background must be good. No matter what, he has a father whoâs a landlord. The rules were probably set for him since elementary school. Of course we canât compare our kids to him.â The eldest daughter-in-lawâs eyes were filled with envy. âWe are not in the position to be envious.â
Third Aunt rolled her eyes at her. âWhat? Do you think our Hu family is poor? If you think so, donât marry into our family!â
The eldest daughter-in-law: ???
Wasnât I just following your lead?
âUnlucky thing, I shouldnât have talked to you. Get lost and go to work. Donât you see how much work there is!â Third Aunt Hu pushed her eldest daughter-in-law out and left angrily.
On the way, she met Hu San and pinched his arm.
They were all a bunch of heartless people!
Hu San almost shouted out loud. In the end, he held it in. When he asked Third Aunt what was wrong, she did not say anything.
âWhy is she acting up again?â Hu San gritted his teeth in pain and cursed.
They did not notice that the pages in Qin Huaiâs hand had not been flipped.
After Little Ah Yu got up, she went straight to the river to look for Wang Wulang and the others.
...
After Wang Wulang and the others finished visiting the unlucky Blood Thirteen, they ran to the river to catch fish.
She had stopped crying after getting up, but she was still unhappy. When she encountered others greeting her on the way, she replied listlessly.
Finally, they arrived at the river. A group of boys was there, and a few girls were washing clothes by the river.
When someone saw her, they hurriedly shouted at Wang Wulang, âWulang, isnât that your sister?â
When Wang Wulang saw Little Ah Yu, he waved at her from afar. As he waved, he threw the clam shell he had picked up to the shore.
âAh Yu, Fifth Brother is here. Come over quickly!â
When Little Ah Yu heard Wang Wulangâs voice, she walked towards him step by step. When she was about to reach him, she looked down at her bag.
She realized that the fruits inside were all broken. They had been crushed when she fell just now.
Little Ah Yu took out the broken fruit. Her hand was dripping with fruit juice.
She could no longer hold it in and started crying. âWuwuwu... Brother... Wuwuwu...â
Wang Wulang and the others were frightened. They thought that something had happened to Little Ah Yu. All of them went ashore and did not even have time to put on their shoes.
âAh Yu, whatâs wrong? Whatâs wrong?â
âAh Yu, tell Big Brother, whatâs wrong?â
âWho bullied you? Big Brother will beat him up!â
Little Ah Yu lay in Wang Wulangâs arms and cried for a long time.
Meatball did not coax her this time and only let her vent.
Finally, she was done crying. She sobbed and wiped her tears with her small hands while clenching her small fists.
âAh Yu... donât like... Little Big Brother anymore!â
So the elf was right. Little Brother did not like her.
Then she shouldnât like him either.
She should not give him anymore water to drink.
Hmph!
