Chapter 56 What Is Family? (2/2)
Bai Xiaofei, on the other hand, didn’t return to his tent and walked to a slightly remote place while only being followed by Huskie.
“Huskie, do you think the outside world is interesting?” As he looked up at the starry sky, Bai Xiaofei’s face couldn’t help but reveal a trace of a smile.
Woof! Woof!
Huskie barked excitedly while rubbing himself against Bai Xiaofei’s chest.
“You glutton! All you know is to eat. If it wasn’t for me taking care of you, you would have been captured by Master Yi and made into dog hot pot since a long time ago.” As he rubbed Huskie’s head affectionately, Bai Xiaofei recalled his memories in the Gorge of Heroes.
Are all my foster parents fine?
Would the Gorge of Heroes be boring without me?
Question after question gushed into his heart yet before Bai Xiaofei could even think of an answer, the scenes of all these people were already replaced by his experiences during these past two days because every single person he’d come into contact with had left a deep impression in his heart.
Woof! Woof!
Bai Xiaofei was immersed in his own thoughts when Huskie suddenly barked while standing up on Bai Xiaofei’s chest.
When he looked over along the direction Huskie was looking at, Xue Ying who wore tight clothes grinning at him, and under the moonlight, Xue Ying’s figure seemed breathtaking like a celestial maiden that had descended from the palace on the moon yet carried the playfulness of the jade hare.
Instantly, Bai Xiaofei was dazed.
“It’s already late in the night yet you aren’t sleeping, have you come here to feed the Magical beasts?” As she spoke, Xue Ying walked over to Bai Xiaofei’s side before sitting down slowly by his side, and a strand of faint refreshing fragrance entered into Bai Xiaofei’s nose along with this, causing him to be unable to help but feel a wave of restlessness.
“Little Fellow, go play somewhere else.” Xue Ying patted Huskie’s head while she stared at him for two seconds, and then Huskie turned around and ran before vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
During the entire process, Bai Xiaofei was like a spectator, and he only recovered from his astonishment after Huskie had vanished without a trace.
“If someone told me that Huskie was your puppet and not mine, then I would surely believe that person.” Bai Xiaofei displayed his resentment as he sighed helplessly.
“That’s because this beauty you’re talking to possesses boundless charm, and I conquer all male living beings.” Xue Ying raised her head up complacently, and she had once again become the playful big sister that wasn’t the slightest bit related to a teacher.
“Mmm, no wonder you didn’t come with us when we went to capture the Roar Boars today. So it turns out you were afraid they would take a fancy to you.” Bai Xiaofei puckered his lips and pretended to be serious as he spoke. In the next second, a slender hand had already pinched his waist, causing him to grimace in pain.
“What did you say just now? My ears aren’t working too well.”
“Big Sister Xue is beautiful and moving, kindhearted and generous, and unrivaled in the world!” A string of praise escaped his mouth, and Bai Xiaofei received the safety of his life in exchange for this compromise.
“You still haven’t told me what you came here for?” Xue Ying withdrew her slender hand and asked a similar question one more.
“I miss my home, so I came over here to take a look because I can see the exact same starry sky from my home.” What Bai Xiaofei said was the truth because his home was the Infinite Mountain Range after all….
“Home? How does it feel to have a family?” When she heard Bai Xiaofei mention this special word, Xue Ying’s mood instantly turned slightly dejected, and she asked a question that Bai Xiaofei had never heard in his life.
“My situation is comparatively special. But, if the homes of ordinary people are like my home, then the feeling of having a family is probably very relaxed because no matter how unhappy you feel, you’ll feel relaxed when you’re with them.”
As she looked at the smile on Bai Xiaofei’s face, Xue Ying’s eyes revealed a trace of yearning.
“If we have the chance, can you take me to your home to have a look?”
