Bab 89: Chapter 89: Yan Que
...
She's actually a girl?
After taking off the child's clothes, Zeng Yi realized that the child was not a boy but a girl. This was something he didn't expect.
Zeng Yi quickly covered her body with a blanket, his face showing a hint of panic.
Shameful, I mistook her gender. This is the biggest shame of my life!
Zeng Yi couldn't help but feel regret. He truly didn't know that this child was a girl! With her short hair, thin figure, and malnourished appearance, he always thought she was a boy. Who would have known that he made a mistake?
Besides, even if she's a girl, who could tell when she dresses like a boy at the age of seven or eight?
So, it's not his fault, but the child's fault.
Zeng Yi thought this way and felt slightly relieved.
Moreover, what's so special about a seven or eight-year-old child, even if she's a girl? I used to bathe my five-year-old niece! What's the big deal?
A seven or eight-year-old child doesn't know anything.
Zeng Yi consoled himself. But since she's already seven or eight years old, she should be more aware of certain things, after all, girls develop earlier.
Originally, he had thought of helping her wash her body, but now it seemed impossible.
"Waiter! Come and help me!"
Zeng Yi walked out of the room and called a female staff member to help clean up the girl.
He waited outside the room, and after a while, the door opened and the waitress came out carrying a basin.
"I've cleaned her up, sir," the waitress said to Zeng Yi.
Unexpectedly, this handsome young man had such a dirty and twisted personality. Disgusting!
Looking at Zeng Yi's face, the waitress thought to herself. She felt that his handsome face was incredibly ugly.
Zeng Yi could sense the waiter's inexplicable hostility towards him. Combining that with her strange disdainful gaze towards him, he seemed to know what she was thinking. His face darkened.
"That's my sister, what are you imagining?" Zeng Yi snapped at her in irritation.
If I were that kind of person, why would I ask for your help? How foolish!
Zeng Yi sneered inwardly.
"Oh, I misunderstood. I apologize!" The waitress quickly bowed and apologized, feeling ashamed.
"It's fine, I don't really mind. But even if you have any wild thoughts, don't let it show on your face. It's easy for people to notice. If someone with a bad temper were in my place, you wouldn't have a pleasant experience." Zeng Yi said, forgiving her but also giving her a reminder.
After being told this, the waitress blushed even more, almost as if blood was about to drip from her face.
"I'm truly sorry!"
Apologizing to Zeng Yi again, she quickly left the place, feeling embarrassed.
Watching the waitress rush away in embarrassment, Zeng Yi couldn't help but shake his head with a sigh.
Her mental resilience is weak!
He then entered the room and sat on a chair, his gaze fixed on the unconscious girl lying on the bed.
After her dirty face had been cleaned, Zeng Yi could clearly see her appearance. This girl wasn't very beautiful, but her features were delicate. There were some freckles on her cheeks, which gave a pleasant feeling, like a little residential jade.
"Mother."
The girl's mouth moved slightly, murmuring with a hint of sadness. A teardrop glistened in the corner of her eye and quietly fell.
Dreaming of sad memories, huh?
Looking at her sleeping face, Zeng Yi couldn't help but sigh. It seems this child has gone through difficult and painful experiences.
He stood up and walked to the side of the bed, pulling up the blanket and gently wiping away the tear from her eye.
"Sleep well. When you wake up, you will find that there is still beauty in this world." As Zeng Yi looked at her thin and tired face, his face revealed an incredibly gentle expression as he softly murmured.
"Xiao Ju, let's go out!"
"Meow~" Little Ju, who was lying on the soft bed, heard Zeng Yi calling and lazily stood up, stretching before leaping onto Zeng Yi's shoulder. Zeng Yi carried Little Ju and quietly walked out of the room, gently closing the door without making a sound.
At night, the girl slowly opened her eyes and found herself in an unfamiliar room. She couldn't help but feel a sense of panic.
"Where is this?"
Then she began to remember. She had been bullied by those leftovers, and her body was heavily injured. But now, she felt no pain at all.
Did my injuries heal?
She reached out her hand, looking at her thin arm, and noticed that all the bruises on her skin were gone, completely healed.
I was saved by someone.
At that moment, the girl suddenly remembered the tall figure standing in front of her before she lost consciousness. The gentle smile on his face was so warm.
He saved me!
With certainty in her heart, she sat up on the bed and looked around the room. It was beautiful and tidy, the best room she had ever stayed in her entire life. However, besides her, she didn't see anyone else in the room.
"He's not here."
Not seeing the person, the girl couldn't help but feel disappointed, muttering to herself.
She wanted to thank him properly.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew, lifting the blue exquisite curtains by the window. In that moment, the girl saw a man in a green robe sitting on the balcony railing, leaning against the wall, one foot on the railing, his arm casually resting on his knee. There was a silver-white cat with black markings lounging on his shoulder. He lifted his face and gazed at the bright moon hanging in the sky, his dark green robe and long hair gently swaying in the wind.
This scene made the girl completely enchanted.
"You're awake."
Zeng Yi also noticed that the girl in the room had woken up. He walked into the room, his gaze fixed on her, a faint smile on his face. The girl blushed a little, her face covered in shyness.
"Thank you for saving me!" The girl quickly got up from the bed, bowed to Zeng Yi, and loudly expressed her gratitude.
The girl's actions made Zeng Yi instantly embarrassed, and he immediately turned around, facing away from her.
"Um, put your clothes on first." Zeng Yi awkwardly reminded her.
These words made her pause, and then she realized that she was completely naked.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
Immediately, a scream of embarrassment echoed throughout the room. The girl quickly jumped back into bed, wrapping herself in the blanket.
Women's voices are really terrifying!
Zeng Yi couldn't help but sigh. Her scream caused his ears to vibrate and ring in his head.
"Near the head of the bed, there are clothes. Put them on yourself." Zeng Yi reminded her, walking into the balcony.
Upon hearing this, the girl's head emerged from the blanket, her cheeks blushing. She seemed like she could drip water.
Looking over, she saw a neatly folded set of clothes on the bedside.
He saw my body completely.
Thinking of this, the girl blushed so much that her head felt like it was about to explode.
Although she usually dressed like a boy, it was to protect herself. As an eight-year-old girl, she knew a little about the physical differences between genders. Being seen naked by someone of the opposite sex was embarrassing to the point of death!
"You're done?" Zeng Yi's voice came from outside the balcony, urging her.
"Not yet!" The girl panicked and quickly shouted, afraid that he would come into the room.
"Then hurry up!"
The girl emerged from the blanket, picked up the set of clothes—men's clothes, to be precise. Zeng Yi didn't buy her clothes specifically, so he just picked out a random set of men's clothes. It wouldn't be much of a hassle to wear them.
"No peeking!" Holding the clothes in her hands, the girl looked over to the balcony where the curtains separated them, cautioning him with embarrassment.
"I know! What's there to see for a little brat like you?"
Hearing what she said, Zeng Yi couldn't help but smirk. What's there to see when it's so flat, apart from...
As Zeng Yi said this, the girl's face froze, and her gaze involuntarily shifted to her flat chest, her eyes filled with sadness.
No, I'm only eight years old, so it's normal to be small. I haven't developed yet, but I will in the future!
Comforting herself like this, the girl felt better.
After a while.
"I'm dressed, you can come in now."
Zeng Yi heard her and walked into the room. He saw the girl standing by the bed, wearing the long top and pants he had bought for her. She kept her head down, unable to look at him. He also noticed the blush on her freckled cheeks.
Seems like the clothes I bought are a bit big.
Seeing her in loose-fitting clothes, Zeng Yi couldn't help but think.
"What's your name?" Zeng Yi walked to the side of the bed, sat down, and looked at the girl, asking.
"I...I'm Yan Yan Que."
