Chapter 1172
The singer noticed the sudden change in the comments on his live stream. He stopped singing,
turned around, and looked at the young boy crying on the live feed. He put down his guitar, walked
over, and asked, âHey kiddo, what's up?â
Byran didn't want anyone to see him cry. He wiped his eyes with his arm and said, âI'm fine! Just
waiting for someone.â
The singer was a bit puzzled. âWhy would waiting for someone make you cry? Did the person you're
waiting for stand you up?â
After hearing this, Byran got annoyed. âWhat's it to you? Scram! Mind your own business!â
The singer had meant well but ended up being barked at. However, he didn't take it to heart since
the boy seemed quite young. He looked almost like a
runaway.
âIf you've got nowhere to go, how about you crash at my place for the night? My live stream is
almost over.â
Byran was freezing, and the offer made him waver. âWhere do you live?"
The singer chuckled. âJust close by! Wait for me to pack up, and I'll take you there.â
Byran didn't refuse and got up to help him pack.
He thought that anywhere would be warmer than being outside, right? If he had to spend the night
on the streets, he'd probably freeze to death!
The singer wrapped up his live stream, packed his stuff, picked up his guitar, turned around, and
smiled. âCome with
Byran nodded and followed him towards the underpass. He was freezing and beginning to feel
hungry.
âWhere are you from, kid?" The singer asked as they walked.
âI'm from Greenhaven.â Byran replied truthfully.
"Did you
have a fight with your family and run away?"
"Something like that.â
The singer shook his head with a smile. âYou young folks donât know how lucky you are. You know,
having a family to look after you is something we can only envy. Let off some steam tonight and go
back home in the morning.â
Byran frowned. âYou don't have a family?â
The singer gave a bitter smile. âI do; but they've never looked after me.â
Byran was puzzled. âWhy not?â
The singer didn't elaborate, and he just pointed at an alley ahead. âMy place is just up there; turn
left, and we're there!â
-Byran, chilled to the bone, quickened his pace. But before he could enter the alley, a white sports
car zoomed up and stopped them.
The speeding car gave Byran and the singer quite a scare.
Byran was already in a bad mood, and this only made him angrier.
âIt's me!â Ida got out of the car as she adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses.
Byran was taken aback, but then quickly scowled. âWhat are you doing here? I thought you said you
didn't care?â
Ida didn't answer his question; instead, he eyed the singer warily. âWho is he? Where are you going
with him?â
Byran snapped. "He's a good Samaritan who wants to help me. I'm going to stay at his place for the
night!â
Ida gave him a cold look. âDo you even know him? And you're just going to go off with a stranger?
Get in the car!â
Although Byran was tempted to get in the car, he continued to glare at Ida. âI thought you didn't
care? Why are you telling me to get in the car now?â
Ida was running out of patience. âI'm giving you three seconds. If you don't get in, I'm leaving!â
Byran huffed. He turned to the baffled singer and asked, âWhat's your live stream account name?â
The singer snapped back to reality. âMy account name is âLonely Singer.â
