The next second, he rushed out of the villa and headed towards the road leading to the forest.

He was going to save Xiaocao.

However, on the way to the forest, Zhou Jian saw Zhan Wang.

The man stood there motionless, his gaze fixed on the forest.

At his feet lay shredded paper.

That was a letter that Xiaocao wrote to Shi Nian.

The letter said that Zhan Wang is the best older brother in the world!

Zhan Wang did not return the letter to Xiao Cao.

He stayed behind.

I don't know why I should stay.

But they stayed.

Moreover, Zhan Wang not only kept it, but he would also take it out to look at it from time to time.

He doesn't read any other texts.

Just look at that sentence.

The best older brother in the world.

Upon seeing this sentence, his hardened heart suddenly felt as if a crack had appeared.

It's soft, so it's injected.

At that moment, Zhan Wang felt that he was still like a human being.

He has human emotions.

Instead of being a carbon-based organism that has already developed emotions and desires and is now extinct.

Even today, the little grass's request...

This request may seem insignificant to others.

But for Zhan Wang, it was a heart-wrenching pain.

He no longer cares about being used.

He no longer cares if someone is nice to him and then makes demands of him.

After all, this is normal, isn't it?

Asking others might be fine, but it would only earn you the word "arrogance."

roll!

But it just happens to be a blade of grass.

The noodles in the morning, and the letter that fell on my head that night.

Zhan Wang even felt that this letter might also be a deliberate design.

Otherwise, how could it have landed on his head at such an exact time?

Moreover, Zhan Wang only realized it when he was deluded.

He took the letter, but Xiaocao never asked about it.

She never said that she wrote a letter, which mysteriously disappeared.

Therefore, Zhan Wang could only think of one possibility.

This letter appears to be written by Xiaocao to someone else.

It was actually written for him.

And what he might want is to soften his heart and let her go.

Zhan Wang suddenly laughed.

The laughter was laced with a strong sense of irony.

Therefore, his arrogance is simply laughable!

How old is he?!

I almost got completely fooled by a little girl!

Zhan Wang's eyes turned sinister.

"Brother Zhan!" Just then, Zhou Jian rushed over and knelt down in front of Zhan Wang: "Please spare Xiao Cao! Please, Brother Zhan, spare her! She's such a young child, sending her into the forest is tantamount to sending her to her death!"

Zhan Wang sneered.

He said, "She's so young, yet so cunning. I shouldn't have saved her in the first place; it would have been better if she had died."

Zhou Jian said indignantly, "Brother Zhan, I never dare to contradict you, but I have to contradict what you just said! How old is Xiao Cao? How could she possibly be cunning? I asked her to make that bowl of noodles for you! It has nothing to do with her!"

"Brother Zhan! If you really need someone to die to appease you, then let me die! Xiaocao is innocent!"

Upon hearing this, Zhan Wang's expression changed.

He walked over and stepped directly on Zhou Jian's head!

Zhou Jian struggled to lift his head, bearing the weight of Zhan Wang's body.

He decided to go all out!

"Brother Zhan, ever since Xiaocao was sent to your villa, she has been saying that she wants to cook for us. She said that she has good food and drinks here every day, and you even saved her life. She feels uneasy if she doesn't do anything!"

"That's utterly absurd!" Zhan Wang exclaimed incredulously, "A child like that would feel uneasy if he did nothing?!"

Zhan Wang felt that this was utter nonsense from Zhou Jian!

Just as he was thinking that Zhou Jian wouldn't be able to live this year either, Zhou Jian's words rang in Zhan Wang's ears again: "Brother Zhan, what I said is all true! How could I dare to lie to you! I wouldn't dare to lie to anyone else!"

"Other children might not feel uneasy about not doing anything at such a young age. After all, which child these days isn't pampered? How could they feel uneasy about not doing anything every day? But Xiaocao is different from those children!"

At this point, Zhou Jian, a grown man, had red eyes: "Brother Zhan, you're busy, so you haven't had a proper chat with Xiao Cao, but it's different for me. I take Xiao Cao with me every day, and we chat all the time. She tells me everything!"

"She told me that her parents had both passed away, and only her older brother and sister-in-law lived there. Her sister-in-law didn't like her, so if she wanted to live with her brother and sister-in-law, she had to work hard."

“At her brother and sister-in-law’s house, she did everything—laundry, cooking, and housework. It had become her habit. So when she came to your villa, she didn’t have to do anything, and of course she felt uneasy.”

“She told me that she wanted to cook for us, saying that you saved her and she wanted to repay you. I told her that it wasn’t necessary, that there were servants in the villa, and that Zhan Ge and I might not even like her cooking.”

"Later she said, 'Why don't you cook noodles for us?' She said that her sister-in-law was never satisfied with anything she cooked, except for the bowl of noodles she cooked every morning, which her sister-in-law loved to eat. Her brother also said that her noodles were the best."

"Brother Zhan, I still didn't let her make it. I know you don't really like breakfast either. Besides, if you do have breakfast, it's prepared by a five-star chef. How could you possibly like noodles cooked by Xiaocao!"

“She wanted to cook for me, but I didn’t want it. She’s such a young child, she’s at an age where she should be pampered. How could I let her make breakfast for me? I should be the one to make it!”
