After all, judging from the way she smashed the lock and dealt with the monsters neatly and efficiently, she was not a good person either. In addition, her attitude towards the previous group of people was somewhat indifferent, so she was not some saint who was obsessed with saving mankind from disasters.
Why do you have to take this little girl with you?
A deep dark light flashed across Zhao Jinhuai's eyes.
"It's nothing." Chu Ci propped up her chin and glanced at Chen Xiao who was sleeping beside her. She said lightly, "I know her father and I promised her that I would take her to her father."
"I promised..." Zhao Jinhuai repeated in a slightly strange tone, leaning closer and raising his hand to hold Chu Ci's hand. He pursed his lips and said, "Sister also promised not to abandon me..."
His fingers were held, and because the flashlight had limited batteries, Chu Ci had turned off the flashlight just now.
Even though it was daytime, the light in the warehouse was very dim, with only one or two ventilated areas receiving the white sunlight.
In the dim light, Chu Ci couldn't quite make out the expression on his drooping head, but she felt his grip tighten slightly. "I don't have parents anymore, they're all dead. I only know my sister now. She won't abandon me, right?"
He spoke in a very light tone, and the voice sounded slightly different from his usual voice. When Chu Ci looked over, he had already raised his eyes, and his amber eyes were extremely beautiful in the dim light.
"Well, I won't abandon you." Chu Ci looked at him for a long time without seeing any clues, so she raised her hand and touched his eyes.
Chu Ci's hand covered his eyes, and he obediently closed his eyes. His eyelashes flickered slightly, sweeping across Chu Ci's palm like a small fan.
Respond obediently.
"kindness."
"Still scared?"
"kindness."
"Do you want a hug?"
"..." This time he was silent for a little longer, the corners of his lips seemed to curl slightly, bringing out the dimples on his cheeks, but he was the first to reach out to Chu Ci and whispered, "Yeah... I want a hug."
Zhao Jinhuai's love value +3, currently 11.
He snuggled into Chu Ci's arms, imitating the way Chen Xiao had hugged Chu Ci before, hugging Chu Ci tightly. His cheek accidentally rubbed against the softness of Chu Ci's chest, but he remained silent, pretending not to know and still hugged her.
He felt Chu Ci adjusting his posture.
The embrace under him was soft and warm. Although she had experienced a fierce battle and her body was covered with the smell of mud and blood, Zhao Jinhuai still couldn't help but sniff lightly and rub his body against her.
Then he followed Chu Ci's gesture of patting his back and closed his eyes.
Before falling asleep, he silently glanced at Chen Xiao who was curled up and sleeping alone over there.
He raised the corners of his lips slightly, held Chu Ci tighter, and finally fell asleep.
Chu Ci didn't fall asleep so easily. She carefully looked at the little boy holding her but didn't find anything wrong.
He didn't sleep for long, only about an hour. He held Chu Ci in his arms, and his little body moved slightly. Finally, he hummed softly, slowly raised his head, and opened his eyes. A dark light flashed quickly in his amber eyes, and then a little mist rose up.
