Subordinate Doting - Chap 138
——A boy as thin as a bamboo pole was knocked to the ground. He was wearing baggy overalls and had no shoes on his feet. On his back was a huge and heavy rusty iron pot, which weighed him down like a turtle and made him unable to get up.
”Are you okay?” Ji Tingyu bent down to help him.
But the boy was strong. He struggled to sit up and knelt on the ground to pick up the scattered things.
When she reached Ji Tingyu’s feet, she suddenly stopped and stared at him for a long time without moving. Then she said shyly, “Brother, your ankles are so beautiful.”
After saying that, he raised his head and met Ji Tingyu’s eyes.
There was a sweet smile on her face, her round eyes had a large white area, and the pupil was just a small black dot.
The zombie eyes should have been scary, but they didn’t look creepy at all.
Because he has a very cute baby face.
The author has something to say:
He Zhuo: Annoying.
Chapter 58 Slap Him
”Oh, you’re quite sweet.”
Ji Tingyu looked at the white, tender and somewhat ignorant baby face. No matter how painful his shoulder was, he could not get angry. He rubbed his arm and helped him up. He took out a piece of candy from his pocket and gave it to him: “Eat it.”
The little boy stood up awkwardly, and Ji Tingyu suddenly said “Fuck”.
He looked skinny and malnourished, but when he stood up, he was taller than him, and his slender arms were covered with lean muscles like tree branches.
At first glance, he is a capable child who has been used to living a hard life.
The main body should be a raccoon or a brown bear, with two black semicircular furry ears standing upright on the top of its head. They are slightly curled forward because of nervousness, like two small fans.
He stared blankly at the colorful candy in Ji Tingyu’s palm that was more beautiful than a gem. He was flattered and incredulous. He blinked and confirmed in a very low voice:
”Brother, can I really eat it?”
The sound is sweeter than that piece of candy.
Oh, this poor little thing…
Ji Tingyu could never stand the look of such soft stuffed animals. His heart instantly turned into mud. Just like when he saw Wuwu, he couldn’t help but tease him: “You can’t eat it. You will become stupid if you eat this candy.”
”……ah?”
The boy’s eyes widened in surprise, and he actually believed it: “Can I really become stupid? Then I want to feed Uncle Winder next door.”
Wow, he is so vicious at such a young age.
”Why give it to Wend?” Ji Tingyu asked him.
The boy pursed his lips, his eyes turned red, his breathing became difficult, and he said excitedly: “Because he always beats my grandmother, and he beats her all the time. Last week, he even beat my grandmother into the hospital. My grandmother was kicked down the stairs by him and couldn’t move. He even grabbed my grandmother’s neck and fed her dirt! He wanted to suffocate my grandmother so that he could sell me if he killed my grandmother! He wanted to -”
”Okay, okay, stop talking, it’s okay.”
Ji Tingyu didn’t expect that the little boy’s life was so miserable. He quickly reached out to rub his head and help him wipe away the tears on his face.
”Sorry, I spoke too much.”
He didn’t know how to coax anyone, so he could only take more candy out of his pocket and give it to the little boy.
The boy was reluctant to eat any of them, and put them carefully in the chest pocket of his overalls. He patted them happily and said, “Grandma loves sweet food. She got well after eating them.”
Ji Tingyu felt a little sad and sighed silently.
I looked up and saw Rosaline fighting her way out of a crowd of vendors across the harbor, jogging towards me.
”Boss, come and have one! It’s still hot.”
She was carrying seven or eight bags of breakfast in one hand and holding a steaming fried dough stick in her mouth. She bit into it, making a crunchy sound and the crumbs stuck to her chin.
”Hey? Where did you scare this kid from?”
The beautiful snake looked at the little boy. The boy looked at her and quickly retracted his shoeless feet and lowered his head. His eyes, like a snake’s tongue, greedily lingered on her delicate ankles.
”Bumped into.”
Ji Tingyu reached out to help her wipe the oil stick residue off her chin. Rosalin was so moved that she burst into tears: “Boss, you are so kind to me–”
Before she said “OK”, Ji Tingyu turned his hand and smeared the residue on her new jacket.
”…Are you playing copy and paste here?”
”I just tell you that no matter what the process is, everything has its destined ending.” For example, if you don’t wipe off this residue, it will eventually fall on you.
”Yes, yes, thank you for your advice.”
Rosalin rolled her eyes, pouted her lips so that they could hold the sesame oil bottle, threw the dough sticks to him, sat down on the wooden pile, and shouted to the boat, “Come down for breakfast!”
”I’m here, I’m here! What did you buy?”
Meng Fan followed the scent like a puppy, along with Mo Shaqing and several other team members who were used to eating high-end seafood.
Ji Tingyu gave his breakfast to the boy sitting next to him and asked him softly, “Are you a little bear? Are you an adult? Which hospital is your grandmother in now? Is the medical fee enough?”
Rosalin nodded at him and asked: What’s going on?
Before Ji Tingyu answered, the boy released his mouth from the straw and spoke timidly.
”My original form is a lazy bear. I’m 17 this year. My grandmother is being treated at the Santia Hospital in the next port. My neighbors helped me raise some medical expenses, but my uncles and aunts are all living in hardship and don’t have much money. It’s not enough for the surgery, so I… sold everything I could at home…”
He said as he hid his dirty feet deeper.
Ji Tingyu lowered his head and took a quick look, and found that although there were discolored dust on his instep and toes, the soles of his feet were not cracked from years of wind and sun. Instead, they were well maintained. His leather shoes might also be included in the list of things that he could sell.
Then there were the clothes, the iron pot, tube after tube of blood drawn from his arm, and finally himself.
Sloth bears are very popular in the local black industry chain because of their high IQ and ease of taming. Irregular circuses often buy underage sloth bears on the black market and impersonate them as wild sloth bears for circus performances.
