Just as I reached the stairs to the third floor, I suddenly heard Brooke's roar coming from the master bedroom.
Jiang Jin had been walking around for most of the day, and her legs were so weak and sore that she had to hold on to the stair railings to walk. When she heard the sound, she didn't care about anything else, took out a bottle of recovery potion from the warehouse, gulped it down, and ran to the room quickly, even leaving Yager behind.
She suddenly opened the door and saw the little guy hanging on Brook's arm. Brook had a painful expression on his face. He used his rough big hands to grab the little guy, but the little guy was very smart and swayed around, making it impossible for Brook to catch him.
Brooke cursed something very quickly. Jiang Jin didn't hear it clearly, but she could guess that it was probably a curse word.
"What's going on!"
Just when Brook was about to go berserk and grab the little guy's head and pull him off, Jiang Jin spoke!
"Lord City Lord! You are finally back!" The murderous intent in Brook's eyes disappeared, and he awkwardly revealed his arm and the little guy hanging on him.
Jiang Jin saw clearly that the little guy was not hanging on Brook! He bit Brook's arm with his teeth. Blood flowed down Brook's arm. No wonder Brook's face looked so ugly.
"Baby!" Jiang Jin called out, and with a headache, she went over and picked the person up.
The little guy was still a little reluctant, grinning, with his eyes wide open, looking very stupid.
"Let go! Baby, let go quickly." Why does he put everything into his mouth? It will be troublesome if he eats something dirty and becomes unwell. Jiang Jin patted the little guy's round butt.
"Ah!" The little guy was shy. He covered his little butt and opened his mouth unconsciously.
He lay in Jiang Jin's arms with a shy look on his face, covering his face and not daring to look at anyone.
Jiang Jin took a look at Brooke's arm and saw four obvious holes, each the size of a thumb, with blood oozing out.
Yager screamed and went forward to bandage Brooke.
Jiang Jin also took the opportunity to pry open the little guy's mouth and touched his four milky white baby teeth. "What's going on? Huh? Are you bullying others?"
The little guy didn't understand, so he rolled around in Jiang Jin's arms, grabbed his little toes and bit them, and was spanked by Jiang Jin again.
He looked confused, covering his little butt, not knowing why he was beaten again.
When the little guy tried to bite his toes again, Jiang Jin also raised his hand tentatively.
Now the little one understands! Don’t chew on toes! If you do, you’ll get spanked!
The little guy hugged Jiang Jin's arm in a flattering manner, winked at her, and sent her a wave of love.
Jiang Jin snorted, having already surrendered in her heart, but she kept a stern face and took the little guy to see Brooke.
Brooke quickly explained, "Maybe you were out for too long, and the little boy got impatient and tried to crawl out several times. I tried to stop him twice, but he bit me."
He sighed, then smiled and said, "Young Master, despite his young age, is very strong and agile. He's a great material for martial arts training."
The little fellow didn't understand, but he had to pretend in front of Jiang Jin, nodding his head and opening his mouth, "Ya-ya-ya, woo-wah!"
Jiang Jin reached out and patted his little butt again.
The little guy opened his eyes wide, his face full of grievance.
He didn't even bite his toes! Why was he hitting himself?
The more the little guy thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more aggrieved he felt. In the end, he suddenly started crying out of grievance.
Now Jiang Jin, who was about to teach him a lesson, and Brooke, who was expecting him to be taught a lesson, looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Wuwuwu!" The little guy cried with tears and snot, and didn't want Jiang Jin to hold him anymore. He rolled onto the blanket, his body twitching, looking very pitiful.
Brooke couldn't say anything harsh this time.
His arm had already been bandaged by Yager, and it would be shameful for him to argue with this little brat who hadn't even grown up yet.
Brooke and Yager looked at each other, apologized to Jiang Jin, and then left.
The master bedroom door was closed, isolating the crying of the little guy. When walking towards the stairs, Yager suddenly said, "You didn't tell the truth. What's going on?"
Brooke shook his hands, lowered his eyes to glance at her, and snorted coldly, "I wanted to cut off a small blanket and ask someone to estimate its price. I didn't expect that little brat to be so sensitive. He has a sense of territory like a wolf cub. He bares his teeth when I get close to him."
"I just threw him aside, but he still held a grudge and came up to bite me." Brooke said this while pressing the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth. "Good boy, next time you better not get into my hands."
"God of Light," Yager murmured softly, "You're actually fighting with a child."
Brooke's face turned grim. "I have four bloody holes!"
"You deserve it. This is the punishment from the God of Light!" Yager glared at him disapprovingly, walked past him quickly and went to the lower floor.
Brook stood alone at the stairs on the third floor, his face even gloomier.
Jiang Jin stood by the master bedroom door, which was not closed properly, and listened to the conversation between Brooke and Yager with great interest, with a thoughtful look on her face.
After a long while without any sound, Jiang Jin closed the door tightly and prepared to go and coax the little guy.
But when she looked down, she saw the little guy sitting at her feet, with shiny snot hanging from his nose, but he was imitating Jiang Jin and making a deep expression.
"You, you." Jiang Jin picked up the little guy and took out a roasted chicken from the warehouse, which made the little guy act like a spoiled child and giggle and ask for a hug.
"Come with me to rinse your mouth first." Jiang Jin hugged him, rinsed her mouth and washed her hands, then picked up a chicken leg and put it in his hand.
The little guy knew how to eat meat without any instruction. He cried loudly while chewing until his mouth was full of grease.
While the little guy's attention was completely attracted by the food, Jiang Jin walked around the carpet and saw a circle of cuts made by the little girl in the corner. It was not very big and could not be seen at all if you didn't look carefully.
But this rug was spotlessly white. When water slid across it, it would leave a faint trace of rust. Brooke was obviously not a meticulous person, so he ignored this trace.
"I was too reckless this time. I handed the little guy over to his care without knowing his background. Fortunately, it was not a big deal and the little guy was not injured." Jiang Jin glanced over the traces.
It is true that you cannot judge a book by its cover, and you cannot measure the depth of the sea by a bucket. It is not advisable to judge people by their appearance.
Even the Knight Commander of the City Lord's Mansion could not be fully trusted. Jiang Jin really didn't know what to do.
Jiang Yan is now like the parachuted-in leader of the company. The old hands in the company all have their own ideas.
Yager is her assistant. Since they are not familiar with each other, her loyalty to her is only half and half. Brooke is the boss of the company. He is bold and has ideas. Everyone in the company listens to him. This kind of person is arrogant and will not easily obey the parachuted leader.
I have to develop myself, Jiang Jin pondered.
