BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1750 - Heavenly Flame and Ling Yan (1)
“Who!” He snaps at the rustling noise coming out of the shrubbery.
In response, a small little head pokes out of the leaves and met his gaze. The girl had a very cuddly and cute face, but those eyes were the main showpiece that dazzled anyone who saw it due to how brilliant they were.
“Where is this place? Where’s my mother?” The pipsqueak rubs her eyes in a drowsy manner as if she didn’t wake up properly yet.
Towards this unexpected child, Heavenly got a strange aching fondness to her akin to his own grandson Bai Xiachen. The boy has always been cuddly and cute, similar to that of a steambun, only this baby here had more of a pink fluff to it.
“Little girl, I did not see your mother here, did you get separated from her?”
Taken aback at first, the pipsqueak squirms uncomfortably at the stranger before breaking out into a cry. “I want Mother, woowoo, I want to find Mother...”
“Where’s your mother, I will help you find her.” Heavenly did not know where his patience came from because he’s never been one to babysit kids, but for some strange reason he could not reject this baby girl’s request.
Hiccupping as she half speaks and half cry: “Uncle, you will really help Ling Yan find Mother? You’re not the kind of lying kidnappers Big Brother mentioned, right?”
That actually caused a frown in Heavenly’s face due to the abrupt turn of topic, This child is so wary of strangers, just like Xiachen.
“So you’re called Ling Yan? Don’t call me uncle, I could be your grandfather already if going by my age. In fact, my grandson is only a few years older than you. if he’s by your side, he will certainly like to have a young little sister like you.”
Xiachen always mentioned how much he wants a little sister so in Heavenly’s mind, this baby girl would be a perfect fit based on how cute and cuddly she was.
“Ling Yan, tell grandpapa here your mother’s name. I can send someone to go inform them of your whereabout. I’m sure your parents are worried sick for you.” That said, the guy reached out with a hand and rubbed the pipsqueak’s head to sooth her crying.
For kids, it’s common and human nature to be afraid of an unfamiliar environment. Therefore, the best solution would be to first calm their unsettled self with a calming gesture like caressing their hair or a welcoming posture.
Despite being teary still in the eye, Di Ling Yan did stop hiccupping as she spoke. Big Brother said to not trust anyone I don’t know. This grandpapa seems nice, but he said I would be a good sister to his grandson....
In this pipsqueak’s mind, she only wants to be her parent’s daughter and her two brothers sister, she doesn’t want to be anyone else’s sister!
Tightly biting down on her lower lips: “Grandpapa, are you planning take Ling Yan back to your home to sell to your grandson?”
That instantly made the man freeze all over due to how ridiculous and bombshell of a comment that was. He honestly never expected this girl to be so clever that she could coin up such a story. Angry at her? No, more like a helpless exhaustion at being unable to handle a baby.
“You little rascal, who taught you such things at such a young age? The outer domains are dangerous, you cannot stay here alone. Grandpapa here promise you, I will not sell you to anyone or my grandson, okay?”
