118 A Brave Brat
Their duty as secret guards was to protect the two little masters, but who knew that something would happen to them right under their noses?
There was no need for their master to punish them. They felt ashamed.
“It’s fine. It’s all thanks to this child and that holy beast. They sensed the danger and saved Bun and Sweetcake.”
Yun Ran’s gaze landed on the little ghoul that Thunderbolt had carried over. Although her expression was normal now, she was still a little afraid. If not for this little ghoul, something would have happened to her two children.
“Miss Yun, do you mean that this little ghoul saved the two little masters?”
Thunderbolt and the secret guards were shocked because this little ghoul was actually a little monster in their hearts.
His master had saved him in a moment of kindness and had planned to throw him away. Who knew that this little monster was actually human?
Yun Ran bent her knees and half-squatted, her gaze meeting that of the little ghoul. Her cold voice sounded. “You can understand me, right?”
Yun Ran had discovered this the first time they met.
Although the child moved roughly like a wild and untamed beast, his gaze was different. Beasts would not show such calm eyes.
However, Yun Ran had not thought that she would be too involved with this child in the future, so she did not make it clear.
Yan Qi’s eyes flickered. He remembered that the woman in front of him was the woman who had held an umbrella for him to block the sunlight that day.
Yan Qi did not see the fear and disgust people had for the ghouls in her eyes that day.She did not show it today either.
Yun Ran’s lips curled. He didn’t speak and didn’t really care. She raised her hand and rubbed it against the ball of loose hair on his head.
“Thank you for protecting our Bun and Sweetcake today. You’re very brave.”
Yan Qi did not expect her to touch his head. His small body stiffened and straightened. Because apart from Mother, everyone in this world hated ghouls. Other than his mother, no one was willing to come into contact with a half-human, half-ghoul like him.
In the past few years, he’d seen too many disgusted and frightened eyes and heard too many vicious curses. But she was the only one who smiled at him and stroked his head in praise.
Yan Qi even felt that he was dreaming. Other than his mother, how could there be a human who did not despise his ghoul bloodline?
He had just bitten those people to death!
Why wasn’t this woman afraid of him?
Wasn’t she afraid that he would bite her to death?
Oh, right. This woman had said before that if he dared to bite her, she would pull out all his teeth.
“Child, if you’re homeless, follow me. In the future, I’ll bring you around.”
Yun Ran smiled at him.
She had wanted him to address her as Pretty Sister, but her Little Sweetcake called him Little Brother. In order not to mess up their seniority, Yun Ran could only be an aunt.
A child?
Yan Qi had only heard people refer to him as a little ghoul or little monster, but no one had ever treated him as a human and called him a child.
“Aren’t you afraid of me? I’m a ghoul! A blood-sucking, murderous demon!”
Yan Qi suddenly spoke, and a pleasant young voice reached Yun Ran’s ears. He deliberately lowered his voice, but because he wanted to bluff, he looked a little childish.
Yun Ran raised her hand and pointed at his forehead. “You? A blood-sucking, murderous evil spirit? I’ve seen real evil spirits. What about you? You’re just a brat. A brave brat.”
Thunderbolt and the secret guards were speechless.
They had been worried that this little ghoul would hurt Miss Yun Ran, so they had been watching from the side.
Unexpectedly, Miss Yun Ran and this little ghoul actually chatted.
