Chapter 458: Stupid
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Ah Mai heard Huang Jue’s words, there was no anger in his heart. Instead, he blinked curiously at him.
Because no one had spoken to him like this since he was young, Huang Jue seemed to be a little unique.
Huang Jue had not eaten his fill because he was reserved. He came up to play with this kid and was even despised. How could things be so unfair?
“How can a half-grown kid like you despise someone older than you?”
Afraid that Gu Man would reprimand him, Huang Jue quickly softened his voice and put on a lecturing expression. Then, he looked up at Gu Man.
“Sister, look, he was the one who spoke rudely to me first. I didn’t do anything.
1 just did my duty as a brother and taught him a lesson.”
Hearing Huang Jue’s explanation, Gu Man smiled in amusement and did not stop the two of them.
When Huang Jue saw this, he immediately became smug and raised his eyebrows at the kid.
His sister was indeed on his side, if not, she would not have cared.
“Hmph, 1’11 reluctantly forgive you this time, but I’m not a good-tempered person. 1 won’t forgive you so easily next time.”
Huang Jue originally wanted to continue his lecture, but looking at Ah Mai’s innocent eyes, he could not say anything. He could only turn his head proudly.
However, at this moment, Ah Mai walked out from behind Gu Man and stood in front of Huang Jue, looking at his face.
“Stupid.”
He said this inexplicably, causing Huang Jue’s anger, which had finally calmed down, to burn even more fiercely.
He widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at the child pointing at him.
“What did you say? How dare you call me stupid?”
Ah Mai tilted his head, as if he didn’t quite understand why Huang Jue was so angry.
Huang Jue looked at Ah Mai’s puzzled expression and became even angrier.
Does he not know that he’s insulting Huang Jue?
Gu Man watched the two of them interact and her interest was piqued. She smiled while looking at Ah Mai’s back.
“All Mai, why did you call brother stupid?”
Ah Mai turned around and tilted his head in confusion. After thinking for a moment, he opened his mouth to answer.
“Because 1 really like him.”
These five simple words immediately appeased Huang Jue, who had been furious just now. His face was even suspiciously red.
“What? Is that how you express yourself when you like someone? How can you say that others are stupid? I’m not stupid at all.”
Gu Man did not tell the truth. If Huang Jue found out that he wasn’t as smart as Ah Mai, he would be angry for a long time.
After Ah Mai answered Gu Man, he turned to look at Huang Jue. In a daze, he seemed to understand something. He raised his feet and made small steps towards Huang Jue, gently holding his hand that was hanging by the side.
The moment the small hand held his big hand, Huang Jue’s heart beat faster. He instantly jumped up to avoid All Mai’s hand.
“What are you doing? Don’t you know that men shouldn’t touch each other?”
Ah Mai looked at his empty little hands and revealed an aggrieved expression. He pursed his lips and raised his head to look at Huang Jue with teary eyes.
Huang Jue also met All Mai’s gaze. After a few seconds, he exhaled heavily and held All Mai’s hand fiercely.
“Just this once.”
Ah Mai looked at his small hand that was held again and smiled. Then, he pulled Huang Jue into the room.
When Huang Jue entered the room, he realized that it was so luxurious. What amazed him even more was the starry sky above him.
It was as if there were really stars floating in front of him. Huang Jue subconsciously reached out his hand and suddenly realized that the roof was very far away from him.
Ah Mai tilted his head at the sight and smiled.
“Brother, likes.”
Huang Jue looked down at his fair face and immediately turned his head away.
“I don’t like childish things like that.”
Although he said that, Huang Jue still raised his head to look above him.
Seeing that the two of them were getting along well, Gu Man decided to hand Ah Mai to Huang Jue.
“Huang Jue, I’ll leave Ah Mai to you. You must keep an eye on him..”
