Tang Wan couldn't answer Lu Lin's question, but instead rubbed her fluffy head against Lu Lin's cheek, appearing infinitely dependent.
But Tang Wan's gaze fell on Su Jiajia beside Lu Lin, with an unprecedented forcefulness.
This was her only person, her only possession.
She didn't want to, and was unwilling to, share it with anyone.
Tang Wan has helped many children, and she knows it herself.
She is willing to show kindness and friendliness to anyone.
But she couldn't let what she had become someone else's.
Lu Lin brought her a whole new world, a world where she could escape ignorance and that cage.
Yes.
In these few short days, Tang Wan read many books that she had never had the chance to read before.
Human fear often stems from the unknown.
The more you know, the more you understand; the more you know, the clearer you become about the kind of life you've led before.
You will also realize that what you experienced before was abnormal.
Tang Wan wanted to know who had imprisoned her in that small world.
She wanted to know about her past, and she wanted to know who was lying!
Who robbed her of a normal life?
For Tang Wan, Lu Lin is the one who inherited the role of "father".
With Lu Lin by her side, Tang Wan felt like a normal child who could be willful in her "father's" arms.
Although Tang Wan is not a willful child, who wouldn't want to be favored?
The moment Su Jiajia and Tang Wan's eyes met, there was a slight awkwardness.
She had never seen Tang Wan so assertive.
Or perhaps Tang Wan has always been like this, but she just didn't care before.
When this thought crossed Su Jiajia's mind, her heart was filled with turbulent emotions.
If Tang Wan really knows everything but doesn't care, then what about those little kids who jump around in front of her?
Is it a spice in her dull life?
In that instant, Su Jiajia even felt that Tang Wan and Fu Wenzhi were the same kind of people.
They just express themselves differently.
Fu Wenzhi didn't care about anyone, so he didn't pay attention to anyone.
In her eyes, everyone was the same, so she didn't favor anyone.
This is terrifying!
Is it really possible for human nature to go to such an extent?
Su Jiajia's fear reached its peak at this moment. She couldn't even remember how she had defeated Tang Wan in her previous life.
Perhaps it's because Tang Wan never intended to struggle from the very beginning?
Or is it because Tang Wan was suppressed from the very beginning?
Tang Wan is like an inextinguishable weed; with just a spring breeze, she can grow wildly.
Su Jiajia stopped in her tracks, and Guo Yueze grabbed her hand.
Guo Yueze, who has been running around for work these days, looked slightly tired, but he was in good spirits.
He had never had such a dazzling moment, even though he knew that the resources he could now obtain came at a price.
But there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
If he wants something, he must pay a certain price.
Su Jiajia was grabbed by Guo Yueze and lifted up.
His voice was still somewhat timid, but his attitude was much tougher than before.
He spoke in a voice only he and Su Jiajia could hear: "Can you be a little better?"
"Didn't you see that Lu Lin completely ignored you?"
At first, Guo Yueze also wanted to talk to Su Jiajia properly.
Sometimes, however, he could see a hint of disdain for him flash in Su Jiajia's eyes.
This child looks down on himself.
But isn't the point of living to earn a few coins?
He earns his money honestly, and although he can't compare to the other guests, he's still better off than most.
Why is Su Jiajia looking at me like that?
From that moment on, Yueze also didn't like Su Jiajia very much.
He simply avoids it whenever possible.
But things are different now. For the sake of his future, Guo Yueze will naturally not back down anymore.
He will take action when necessary.
Su Jiajia stared wide-eyed at Guo Yueze in disbelief.
She never expected Guo Yueze to treat her this way.
I never imagined that Guo Yueze would say something like that.
Such hurtful words.
The way she opened her eyes wide made her look even cuter than usual.
At least it won't make people dislike it so much.
Less shrewd, more childlike innocence.
Tang Wan's gaze returned when Su Jiajia was taken away.
Just as she was drawing her attention back, her peripheral vision caught sight of Fu Wenzhi standing to the side.
He was slightly taken aback.
Fu Wenzhi's state was somewhat strange.
He seemed to have revealed a hint of sharpness.
His cold demeanor, both inside and out, made him appear somewhat aloof.
He stood alone under the tree, his gaze towards Tang Wan filled with an inquisitive look that Tang Wan couldn't understand.
Tang Wan didn't want to provoke such a madman.
This kind of restrained yet indifferent madman is inherently dangerous.
He is a shrewd player, a mastermind who wants to control everyone.
It's impossible for her to be a lonely, pitiful little thing.
It's not a feeling of loneliness or vulnerability.
That's what Tang Wan was thinking.
Don't meddle in the affairs of such people.
Because they are like a bottomless swamp; you never know when you will fall in and be swallowed up completely.
That's what reason tells us.
But emotionally, Tang Wan couldn't turn a blind eye.
She thought of Fu Wenzhi pulling her into the group chat, of Fu Wenzhi asking her for a small cake, of that unsafe night Fu Wenzhi kept her company...
She really couldn't ignore Fu Wenzhi's expectant gaze as he stood alone.
Finally, Tang Wan patted Lu Lin on the shoulder and slid off him.
Then he picked up his small backpack and walked up to Fu Wenzhi.
Fu Wenzhi's face remained expressionless.
He was somewhat surprised when he saw Tang Wan walking towards him.
Finally, when Tang Wan took the small cake out of her backpack, the smile on her lips held a warmth that spoke volumes of genuine affection.
He picked up the chocolate cake that Tang Wan had handed him without a second thought.
He ignored Lu Lin's angry gaze.
Looking at Fu Wenzhi's expression and his bright eyes, Tang Wan doubted her intuition for the first time.
Perhaps, Fu Wenzhi wasn't as cold-hearted as he thought.
However, out of Tang Wan's sight, Fu Wenzhi raised his narrow eyes, glanced at his friend, and his eyes held a hint of provocation.
He opened his arms and gave Tang Wan a hug, who seemed a little stiff because she wasn't used to being hugged by him.
His eyes were brimming with emotion.
He concealed his ambitions.
And the curve of his lips seemed to be saying something.
Look, the kitten has nestled into my arms.
