The boy didn't react at first, but then he realized she was thanking him for helping her, and lowered his head, saying, "No...you're welcome..."

The boy's voice was pleasant, but he stuttered a little. "Has Ruan Ruan always been like this?"

Ruan Ruan replied again: "No, he didn't stutter before. It's because after becoming a drug user, his fear of humans makes him very nervous when speaking to others."

Even if someone poses no threat to him, he'll still act this way. It doesn't discriminate between the old, the weak, the sick, or the disabled; he's afraid of anyone who is human.

Wan Ge thought of other children like him, which made him even more determined to solve this problem as soon as possible.

The minor villain is also in this manor with his master, so it won't be long before the prince discovers her presence here.

Wange addressed Gu Wan, saying, "My name is Wange, what's your name?"

Gu Wan lowered her head and whispered her name.

"Wanwan, what a coincidence, my name also has 'wan' in it." Wan Ge knew, of course, that the villain's name didn't have the same character as hers, but they had the same pronunciation.

Gu Wan's family was originally quite well-off, but his parents died early, and his uncle squandered the family fortune and was addicted to gambling, eventually sending him here for money.

His parents were alive when he was quite young, and he knew a few characters, so he knew how to write his own name.

Looking at the friendly girl, Gu Wan blushed. Actually, he only had one reason for saving her.

After his parents left, no one spoke to him in such a gentle tone. When he was bitten by a snake, he saw the worry in the little girl's eyes. It was this worry that touched him; otherwise, he probably would have stood by and watched her die.

Gu Wan seemed to remember something, turned around and took a few meat buns from inside the table.

She was the prince's darling since childhood. This was the first time the original owner had ever eaten such a bun, but for Wan Ge, anything given by him was the best.

Wan Ge took a few bites and said with a smile, "Delicious."

Gu Wan lowered her head. She was lying. In fact, from her clothes, Gu Wan could tell that her family was very wealthy and powerful. She probably wouldn't even look down on such ordinary buns, so how could she think they were delicious?

But he still didn't say anything and sat quietly beside her.

Wan Ge didn't know if she was just happy to meet him or what, but she ate two steamed buns, more than the original owner usually ate.

It was already quite late, and Wange patted the spot next to her: "Let's go to sleep together."

Gu Wan was taken aback. Although he was young, he knew that there was a difference between men and women.

Wan Ge hadn't even considered that aspect. After all, they were just two little kids at the moment, and they didn't have any wild ideas.

Gu Wan initially wanted to refuse, but her small hand grabbed his again.

In the end, Gu Wan lay down next to her. Wan Ge was already quite afraid of the cold, and with such a weak body, she felt the warmth from Gu Wan and moved closer to him: "You are so warm."

Gu Wan didn't speak because she was too cold; her hands and feet were icy, and her body temperature seemed to be lower than normal.

Wan Ge felt warm leaning against him and quickly fell asleep again, though it's also possible that she was sleepy because of her illness.
