Bab 860: This Damn Situation

Cole took a couple steps forward and squatted down with half his chest pressing against Gu Mengmeng's back. He placed one hand on Gu Mengmeng's shoulder while the other gently covered Gu Mengmeng's hand on the top of Chixuan's head. He smiled at Chixuan. "Little Xuan, good boy. Don't be afraid. Your mother and I will be by your side. She will not leave you and neither will I. But you must recover quickly and not let your mother worry. Because if she is worried… we will all be very upset, right?"

Chixuan nodded obediently. He gazed at Gu Mengmeng, as if waiting for her to answer.

This gaze forced Gu Mengmeng to endure the strong urge to just fling Cole far away.

Waves of discomfort and disgust radiated from the part of her in contact with Cole, but Gu Mengmeng didn't wish to up upset Chixuan. Hence, she gritted her teeth and forced a smile. She comforted Chixuan. "Be a good boy. Mother will be by your side."

"Owooo…" Chixuan cried out weakly again.
