Chapter 1176 “Ning Yu’s jealousy (3)”
Even though the old goat and snake didn’t understand what the boy was trying to pull here, they knew enough than to interrupt the show. Instead, they locked their focus onto Ning Yu with a warning glare, saying if you try anything then we would snip you on the spot!
“Yu’er, what are you doing here? Did you finish buying the cake already?”
Ning Yu was at a loss when this voice cut in from the rear, which made her go pale from not knowing how to react. Biting her lip, she instinctively started to weep in order to win some points: “Auntie Ning, I’m sorry… I got lazy and didn’t go to the street over for his cake and instead asked the kitchen for some. This likely angered little Xiachen, so-so….”
Faintly furrowing up her brow, Bai Ning first glanced at the flipped over table, then at the weeping girl in question. It’s obvious what has happened and she’s not pleased at all.
“Yu’er, even if you don’t want to go out and buy the cake then that’s fine, you could’ve said so to me, why do such deceptive things? What did I teach you since you were little? A person must be trustworthy, that’s the basic rule in life.”
This bashing was not what Ning Yu expected. Going stiff and disbelieving in the face, Why is that the main focus? Isn’t the main focus supposed to be about the table being flipped? How can Auntie Ning be so bias towards the kid?
“Xiachen,” Bai Ning heaves a long helpless sigh upon turning to the boy, “if you didn’t like the cake she bought then you could’ve asked her to buy it again, why get so upset? What if you hurt yourself?”
The boy didn’t reply, only flushing red in the eye with tears quickly seeping out. Then as if determined after deciding on something, he reached over to grab onto Dragony’s hand and made a deep bow with his sister. “Pretty Granny, I’m sorry but we will have to say goodbye now.”
Alarmed and anxious on her face over that, Bai Ning promptly explained herself: “Xiachen, I am not blaming you so don’t get angry, I was only worried about your well-being. If you leave now then what about those bad people, what if they come find you again….”
“I am not afraid, me and my sister have come all this way by ourselves. We can keep walking forward if we must.” Getting stubborn on his face, the normal blue eye he had was now full crying out.
Ning Yu to one side could care less about the boy’s safety, but she does care a lot about coming out on top of this situation. Sure enough, a touch of gloating pride could be found across this girl’s cheeky face.
Although Auntie Ning is bias towards this little shit, but as long as I can drive them away then it’s all good. At most she will only reprimand me a bit and that’s that.
Dragony on the other hand still hasn’t quite gotten along with the flow yet, which could be seen on her puzzled face at the moment.
Huh? Didn’t Gege say we must follow Grandmother around no matter what? Why are we leaving all of a sudden?
Just when the little dragoness was bewildered by everything, the boy in question suddenly shot her a signaling glance that struck her like lightning. Instantly, she understood and cried out as well.
“Gege, I don’t want to go, I’m afraid of being taken away as a child wife by those bad people. I’m scared….”
Meanwhile back over at the doorway, Dragon Flame was absolutely flabbergasted by the two kids’ ability to put on a show of this caliber, especially that remark about being a child wife. What a word to use!
“Don’t be afraid Dragon, I will protect you.” Tightly hugging his sister like a stubborn kid that’s trying to forcefully put on a mature face, “And, even if we encounter greater danger in the future, it’s nothing compared to being treated as a beggar.”
“Ooohwoohhh, but I really like Pretty Granny.” While wiping the tears and snots from her face, the little missy suddenly threw herself into Bai Ning’s leg to cling onto the lady, “Pretty Granny, please don’t drive me and Gege away, we will be good okay? We are very good. We can help babysit your future baby and never make you angry.”
