C99 (2/2)
Xiao Wan looked at her listlessly as tears started to flow again.
Zhou Leping had a headache, he braced himself and walked forward: ”Xiao Wan will not cry, from now on, this will be your home, don't you like Dr Zhu? In the future, you will be able to live with the Dr Zhu everyday if you stay here. Although he couldn't see his parents … But there are a lot of people playing with you. ”
Xiao Wan curled his lips, his expression extremely aggrieved, ”Why must Father and Mother die?”
Zhou Leping could not answer this question.
Just as she was thinking about how to change the topic, Zhu Guanliang suddenly opened her mouth to help her out, ”People will die, but sooner or later, we will also die. You will also die, it's not scary at all.
Xiao Wan obviously could not understand such a profound and straightforward explanation. He blinked his eyes, and his tears were stuck in his eyes as they tottered and swayed. He must be thinking.
Zhou Leping called in a servant from outside and instructed, ”Clean up a room beside my bedroom for Xiao Wan. Also, continue with the orders, Xiao Wan will be treated like the Fourth Miss of the Residence.”
The attendant agreed, then he busied himself with preparing.
Xiao Wan didn't understand the meaning behind Zhu Guanliang's words even after he thought about it. In the end, he was about to fall asleep as he laid on Zhu Guanliang's shoulder and slowly closed his eyes.
Zhu Guanliang gently placed her on the bed and lowered his head to look at his shoulder which was drenched and sticky. He disdainfully frowned as he turned around and went to the cupboard to take out a new set of clothes to change into.
Zhou Leping tactfully turned around, ”It's all your fault today. Xiao Wan could tell that she really liked you.
Before Zhou Leping could wait for him to reply, he was about to say his goodbyes. Suddenly, his entire body stiffened and his eyes widened, as he stared dumbfoundedly in front of him.
”Xiao Wan needs comfort. The general needs it too.”
Zhu Guanliang hugged her from behind, and held onto her wrist tightly as he hugged her in his embrace. He slightly bent his waist behind her, and rested his chin on her shoulder.
Zhou Leping's mind was blank, in that moment, whatever reason, or reaction, they all grew wings and flew out from the head. She was stunned, then stunned, and finally she grabbed onto a strand of consciousness and gritted her teeth as she struggled, ”What is it!? ”Let go!”
”The general's eyes are red as if Xiao Wan had howled for two hours. You must be sad about the death of Zhou Zheng and Madam Wang, right?”
”I'm not crying, release me!”
Her face went from red all the way to her neck, causing Zhou Leping to struggle for a while. He realised that his strength was surprisingly strong, after struggling for a long time, he was still able to pull himself together with no results.
”It's not shameful at all to cry, why don't you admit it?” He actually managed to reach out a hand to rub her head. ”The general is also a woman. Does it comfort me to hold you like this?”
Zhou Leping's face was burning red, she grinded her teeth and said, ”No, I don't feel comforted at all, let me say it one last time, if you don't let go, I'll disarm you!”
Zhu Guanliang laughed, and when he laughed, his hot breath and his body emitted a very refreshing fragrance, which entered Zhou Leping's nose.
Zhou Leping was instantly like an exploding cat, with a burst of force, he broke free, grabbed onto one of his arms, twisted it with force, and pushed him onto the table, ”Did I treat you too well, that's why you dare to be so presumptuous towards me!”
