Chapter 110 Adopted



Xiao Ruyu and her husband were accommodated in a side room.

Although the furnishings here are simple, they have everything you need.

"Come with me, Master Liu wants to see you two."

Just as she was looking at the objects around her, the cult member opened the door.

【11. Ask this person what his name is. 】

Eleven raised his head, bowed, and asked sincerely.

"I don't know what to call you, benefactor."

The cult member waved his hands impatiently and raised his voice.

"It's not me who wants to take you in, it's our Master Liu."

"I'm the waiter in the store, Wang Xiao, you can just call me Brother Wang."

Xiao Ruyu kept all the words in mind and followed Wang Xiao silently to another room.

Pushing open the door, Wang Xiao called out respectfully.

"Master Liu, I brought the two babies here."

Mr. Liu turned his head and stared at the two people.

Xiao Ruyu was not at all panicked and showed no fear. She just hid behind Eleven and looked at Master Liu.

"You will live here from now on. If you have any questions, just tell Wang Xiao."

The two men were stared at until their scalps tingled. When they thought they were exposed, Master Liu started to make excuses.

"Thank you, Master Liu."

Eleven and Xiao Ruyu said in unison.

Xiao Ruyu glanced at the things in the house and didn't find anything unusual.

Mr. Liu's eyes were sharp, so she didn't dare to alert the enemy and could only go back with Eleven first.

Sitting slumped on the bed in the side room, Xiao Ruyu sighed.

[I just looked around the shop and found nothing. Eleven, do you notice anything wrong? ]

Eleven also shook his head, indicating that he had not made any other discoveries.

Xiao Ruyu pouted, feeling unwilling.

[No, now that I'm here, I must find a chance to look for Master Liu in his room.]

The next day, Xiao Ruyu seized the opportunity.

Wang Xiao went out to purchase fabrics, and the huge shop was silent.

Xiao Ruyu poked her head out of the room, but saw no sign of Master Liu.

[Eleven, you go keep watch at the store entrance, I'll go look around in Mr. Liu's room.]

"Princess, be careful."

Eleven warned worriedly.

Xiao Ruyu agreed, then turned around and tiptoed out the door.

Master Liu was not far from their room. Xiao Ruyu carefully put his ear to the door, but there was no sound.

She quietly pushed the door open a crack and found no one inside.

This is a great opportunity!

Xiao Ruyu then pushed the door open and looked at the objects around him.

The furnishings here are similar to those in the side rooms, but they are more luxurious.

On the table in the middle of the room was a mahogany tiger head, with the lifelike tiger eyes facing the door, looking a little scary.

Xiao Ruyu stepped forward and wanted to take a closer look at the thing when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"What are you doing?"

She turned around suddenly and saw that Master Liu was standing behind her.

Xiao Ruyu broke out in a cold sweat. This Master Liu walked without making any sound!

Mr. Liu stared at Xiao Ruyu with a look of horror and coldness, which looked quite ferocious and terrifying considering his appearance.

Oh no, I’ve been discovered!

Xiao Ruyu's mind was racing, trying to come up with an excuse.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Mr. Liu shouted again.

"Who asked you to come?"

Xiao Ruyu curled her lips and pulled her face, and the next second her eyes were filled with tears.

She threw herself into Mr. Liu's arms, hugged his legs, and sobbed.

"I...I miss my dad. I want to find him..."

Mr. Liu's body visibly stiffened and he looked down.

The half-grown glutinous rice dumpling hugged his thighs and cried uncontrollably.

This was the first time for the big, strong man to encounter such a situation, and he could be seen to be in a state of panic.

Master Liu's expression eased a little, and his tone softened.

“Stop crying!”

Xiao Ruyu obediently stopped crying and sniffed softly.

Seeing that she was sensible, Mr. Liu softened his heart a little.

"That's all, just a kid."

He sighed and seemed to be talking to himself.

Eleven came behind him, followed closely by Wang Xiao who had returned.

Seeing Xiao Ruyu breaking into Mr. Liu's room, he started scolding her.

"What the hell are you doing? You entered the room without the master's permission. Go back and reflect on your mistakes!"

After saying that, he reached out and tried to pull Xiao Ruyu off Master Liu's legs.

"Why is a little kid so mean to her?"

Master Liu kicked Wang Xiao angrily, clearly standing on Xiao Ruyu's side.

Wang Xiao was stunned and stood there, confused.

"Then... this..."

"She is young, so it's normal for her to miss her parents. If she wants to come to my room to see me in the future, she can come."

Mr. Liu mistakenly thought that Xiao Ruyu thought he was his deceased father, and directly allowed her to enter and leave his room at will.

Xiao Ruyu was delighted as she didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise.

"Has the cloth I asked you to purchase arrived today?"

As Mr. Liu spoke, he and Wang Xiao left to check the purchased fabrics.

[Eleven, you go back first. I will look for clues in the house.]

Xiao Ruyu sent a message to Eleven, signaling him to leave first.

She rushed into the room and rummaged through everything she could see.

An hour later, calculating that Master Liu would soon be back, Xiao Ruyu hurriedly restored everything to its original state.

To her disappointment, she didn't find anything useful.

Xiao Ruyu was deflated and returned to his room listlessly.

[This Mr. Liu is really very vigilant. I turned the room upside down, but didn't find anything useful. ]

She fell into Eleven's arms helplessly, hoping to get some comfort.

Eleven touched her head and spoke slowly.

"If he hadn't been so vigilant, he would have been discovered by the soldiers in the city long ago."

"What's more, today, even Eleven didn't notice when he appeared in the room."

Xiao Ruyu wrung her hands, her eyes filled with melancholy.

[We must find evidence as soon as possible so that we can contact Master.]

Eleven also expressed his approval.

After a tiring day, Xiao Ruyu lay in bed, feeling sleepy.

But she was thinking about the things that happened during the day and couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.

Just as the two were staring at each other, there was a noise in the yard.

Xiao Ruyu immediately pricked up his ears and nudged Eleven, indicating that he should listen too.

It's late at night and the store is already closing time, why are there still people visiting at this time?

The two of them got out of bed carefully, put their ears to the door, and listened carefully to the voices in the yard.

The visitor lowered his voice and seemed to be explaining something to Master Liu.

"There is a big move within the church, so you must be careful in the next few days."

Mr. Liu agreed repeatedly.

"There are still three days left, so you should get ready first."

The people in the yard spoke very quietly, but the two of them still heard roughly what was said.

Xiao Ruyu and Eleven exchanged glances and spoke secretly.

[They finally couldn't hold it back any longer. Eleven, go and tell Master the news!]
