Chapter 42 (1/2)

Ten suggested to Luo Wei, ”Young uard was to be brought along”

Luo Wei shook his head, ”If we don't bring him with us, then he won't be able to stay alive”

Ten shook his head and sighed

”His nauys shouldn't look down on him so much Everyone leads different lives in this world, Wei Lan didn't do anything wrong”

”Young le one of the Qi Lin Shadow Guards willingly wants to be a shadow guard They're all kids fro on the streets They've all been bought or taken by force by Qi Lin Villa”

Ten was silent for a esture, ”The young ht, we didn't think about this”

Luo Wei instructed, ”You guys shouldn't keep giving him attitude, be nicer to hi up Wei Lan's past again, pretend we've forgotten it”

Ten answered, looking serious, ”I understand”

In the cabin, Wei Lan's tears escaped his eyes The shadow guards didn't sleep very deeply, any noise or movement could wake them The uneasy sleep he'd drifted into just noas interrupted as soon as Luo Wei started talking with Ten

This feeling was very curious Wei Lan'son the streets when he was just a baby When he turned four, his mother had died of exposure and starvation, he had no power to bury her, and was only able to watch as the soldiers patrolling the streets tossed her corpse into a river outside the city walls At six, he'd been kidnapped by Qi Lin Villa and taken to train for five years, and then acted as a shadow guard at the villa for nine In his twenty years, Wei Lan had never been shown kindness by anyone except his mother No one cared if he lived or died, and he'd never seen higar on the street was dignity After he was taken by Qi Lin, he'd beconity was even less necessary then He didn't think that Luo Wei would be afraid to eon Guards to be nicer to him This person actually cared about Wei Lan's pride as a person How strange it was that years after hiscared about by so that lingered from a past life

Someone opened the door and slipped in Wei Lan quickly turned his head Histhe chance to wipe his face of the tears before someone pressed a warently dabbing at the tears on his face, ”What's wrong?” He asked Wei Lan, ”Does it hurt?”

”No,” Wei Lan's voice was a little thick with eht,” Luo Wei said quietly, ”No one is unlucky forever Wei Lan, just forget everything that happened before, okay?”

Wei Lan answered, ”Okay I'll forget it all”
