When the child heard the name Yao Fang, his entire body trembled. His eyes were filled with fear. He turned around and was about to run away, but Zhang Long grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back like a chicken.
”Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you. We just want to ask you something.” Luo Lingwei tried her best to keep her tone calm as she said to the child.
”You liar! You are obviously in the same boat as those bandits! ” The child tried to pry his hand away from Zhang Long's grasp, only to find that it was like a pair of iron pincers grabbing tightly onto him.
”Zhang Long, let him go first.” Luo Lingwei instructed Zhang Long.
”But, esteemed …” Zhang Long still wanted to say something, but he met Luo Lingwei's sharp gaze and had no choice but to let go of this child.
The child was stunned. He stared at Luo Lingwei for a long time.
”Little brat!” What are you looking at! If you dare to be so brazen again, I'll dig out your eyes! ” Seeing the child being so rude, Zhao Hu couldn't help but shout.
”Empress? You are Luo Lingwei? Luo Tianhe's daughter? ” the child asked suddenly. Hearing this, Zhao Hu shouted, ”You have big balls! How dare he call the Empress by her name! ”Could it be that you are tired of living!”
Luo Lingwei waved her hand and said to Zhao Hu, ”It's alright, I have nothing to say. Let's see what this child wants to say.”
Then, Luo Lingwei took out a piece of candy from her sleeve and placed it in the child's palm. The child cautiously sniffed it with his nose, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, she put it into his mouth to eat.
”Alright, since eating people makes your mouth soft, then I'll take your hands short. Child, now that you've eaten mine, don't you owe me a favor?” And the money we just paid for you. ” Luo Lingwei said to the child with a smile.
When the child heard this, he was stunned. He looked at Luo Lingwei and was about to say something, but Luo Lingwei shook her head and smiled, ”I know what you want to say, why don't you spit it out and give it back to me?” It's too late. Also, you owe me money now. If you don't listen to me obediently, even if I took out all of your internal organs, no one would care. I've heard that the heart of a child is a tonic. ”
”I beg of you, don't eat me. I will say anything.” When the child heard this, her tone became anxious as she replied in a sobbing tone.
Luo Lingwei nodded and said: ”Let's go back to the inn first. There are too many people here, it's not safe.”
After Luo Lingwei said this, Zhang Long carried the child into his arms and the group returned to the inn. Luo Lingwei ordered the waiter to prepare a few dishes. It was already close to noon, and a few of them had hunger and thirst in their stomachs.
Arriving at the room specially prepared for Luo Lingwei at the inn, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu stood at the door, guarding it so that no one could enter and preventing them from being disturbed, while one stood inside the room to protect Luo Lingwei's safety. On the other hand, Little Qingxue and Little White stood by Luo Lingwei's side, waiting upon her.
”Speak, who are you? You said today that I am Luo Tianhe's daughter, what do you mean by that? Do you know Luo Tianhe? ” After returning to the inn, Luo Lingwei did not hesitate and went straight to the point.
At first, the child had rolled his eyes in an attempt to think of a way to escape, but when he saw Luo Lingwei playing with the shiny dagger in her hand, he was scared out of his wits.
