Chapter 46: Good Deeds (2/2)

After Wang Ze had died, it has been a long time since he saw another nosy person.

But, this feeling had unexpectedly led him to reminisce.

“Does it always feel meaningful when you do good deeds? Maybe I should give it a try?”

Seeing the girl’s happy expression, Bai Yan couldn’t help but have thoughts on doing the same. It was like someone ate durian, which he detested, and that someone ate it with relish. Even he would start doubting his sense of taste and wonder if durian really tasted good or not.

After a few days, Bai Yan was also caught up in this illusion.

Bai Yan rarely intended to help others out of pleasure, but unfortunately, he walked around the park and didn’t find any chance to help someone out.

Following along the path, Bai Yan felt quite regretful to see that even God didn’t want him to be a good person.

Bai Yan sighed and believed that he wouldn’t have a chance to do good deeds today. Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly saw a weeping little girl up ahead.

The little girl was standing under the streetlamp. She looked roughly eight or nine years old with a body that was clearly not an adult’s.

In the middle of the night, it was extremely dangerous for a child to be left alone. If luck wasn’t on her side, she’d get kidnapped by a child trafficker.

Bai Yan’s eyes twinkled as he quickly walked towards the little girl’s side, and with a smile on his face, he asked her, “Little sister, did you wander off from your family?”

“En. My mom was running all over the place, and I lost sight of her!” The young girl sadly wiped away her tears, “Please don’t get close to me. Mommy doesn’t want me talking to strangers!

Ah. Bai Yan now understood why there wasn’t anyone enthusiastically helping this little girl. It was because of this child, who could suffocate anyone to death.

However, since the little girl didn’t want his help, she was beyond Bai Yan’s control.

He, Bai Yan, rarely wanted to do good deeds, so even if she didn’t want to accept his help, she still must accept it.

As a result, Bai Yan held the little girl’s hand and squatted down, gently asking her, “When did you last see your mom? I’ll bring you there. Do you know your mom’s cell phone number?”

“Don’t remember! You let go of my hand.” The little girl stared at him wide-eyed, “You’re a complete stranger. I don’t need your help.”

“I won’t.” Bai Yan beamed a smile, “I’ll definitely help you out today!”

“Fine, you wait.” The little girl released an exasperated sigh and said with anger and resentment in her voice, “Save me! Murderer!”

Fortunately, there was no one around, so Bai Yan hurriedly covered the girl’s mouth. With an upcoming headache, he realized that their situation was more akin to a child and a child trafficker.

Doing good deeds wasn’t easy.

Speaking of which, weren’t you crying just now? Why aren’t you crying anymore?

Bai Yan just noticed that there was a significant generation gap between him and the kid, so he definitely couldn’t comprehend the little brat.

“I’ll let go. Don’t scream. I’ll help you find your mother.” Bai Yan let go of his hand, “You’re here all alone, so there’s a chance that the next person you see would be a child trafficker.”

“I think you seem to be the same…” The little girl mumbled to herself, and since she slowly couldn’t find her mother anymore, she was also panicking a bit, reluctantly saying, “I was playing with my mom in the park before. She met a friend of hers and made small talk, while I chased a small kitten until I ran here…”

“Then, that means your mom could still be trying to look for you in the park. You should go back to the park and wait for her.”

Bai Yan led the little girl by the hand and returned to the park. Not a moment too soon, a middle-aged woman whose face was filled with anxiety ran towards them, and when she caught sight of the little girl, she scolded, “Mengmeng, how could you run away willy-nilly like that and make me almost die from worry?”

Bai Yan lowered his head to see the little girl’s expression. Certainly, this wasn’t a human trafficker, so he relinquished his grip and let the little girl go.

The girl’s mother pulled the girl to the side, and after giving her child a tongue lashing, she turned her attention to Bai Yan with a million-watt smile on her face, “Young man, thank you so much! If you weren’t there, who knows where this child would end up!”

“Then, have you eaten yet? If not, please let me treat you to dinner. Thank you! I’m really thankful for what you have done today!”

“No need. Older sister, I’ve already eaten.”

The girl’s mother sincerely expressed her gratitude, leading him to instinctively feel uncomfortable.

The girl’s mother pulled on the girl and kept expressing her thanks, insisting on treating Bai Yan to dinner. Hearing the woman jabber on how grateful she was and seeing how comforted and happy the woman was to find her lost child, Bai Yan couldn’t let himself bear it any longer.

Bai Yan’s face began to turn to white due to a sudden urge to vomit his guts out.

It was too late to bid farewell to the mother-daughter duo, so Bai Yan immediately turned his head and ran away until he ran into a nearby road where he leaned in forward and started to madly throw up on the tree.

It’s disgusting. It truly was too disgusting!

Using his own two eyes, he saw for himself that this truly was a quite disgusting act!

He must have lost his mind. How could he even think of doing good deeds in the first place?

The bile from Bai Yan’s stomach was completely out. He used a tissue to wipe his mouth dry and attentively stared at his hands, with eyes burning fiercely. Falling into a pit three times was foolish. He’s already done it three times, how could he not learn from his lesson?

He would chop off these hands, even if there was nothing wrong with them!

Meals could be eaten indiscriminately, so can’t good deeds be done when one wishes?
