Chapter 473 “Acting All Around (4)”
“Uncle Mo,” following the disappearance of his friend’s fleeting back, Bai Xiachen then shifts his gaze back over to the teen. “I really like you, do you like me as well?” that face couldn’t be anymore friendly and innocent as he spoke
Initially Mo Li Shang was rather stunned by the boy’s proactive initiative, nevertheless, he composes himself to answer: “Of course. Do you really like me as well Xiachen?”
“Mhmm, I really do!” Giving an earnest nod as confirmation, “I’ve always wanted another uncle. Why don’t Uncle Mo become my real uncle?”
Looking at the big, watery eyes of the little steambun, Mo Li Shang’s brain didn’t even need to think and nodded without forethought: “YES, I will be your uncle.”
“Uncle, I like you so very much!” Gleefully brilliant in that face, Bai Xiachen readily jumps into the teen’s embrace. However, that glee quickly changed into a scheming fox once out of sight.
If Uncle Mo becomes my uncle then he would become Mother’s younger brother. That means in the future he won’t be able to threaten Baddie Father’s position! What’s more, we will then be another step closer to going into the Demon realm….
“Oh crap!” As if suddenly recalling something important, the teen exclaims out of nowhere.
“Uncle, are you regretting it?” Bai Xiachen mutters pitifully, his eyes showing grievance.
“No, it’s not… I seem to have… forgotten about Piggy.”
……
Not far from the main aisle, a certain pink piggy was currently trying hard to gain the attention of the public by crying and wiping those tears with a handkerchief. Sadly for him though, the surrounding crowds doesn’t seem to be all that interested and soon dispersed.
Huh, where is the people? Why are they all gone? Did I not perform up to standard?
Hey, don’t leave!
Oh wait……
Where is Master?
All sluggish in his gaze, Piggy had to take a good minute to come to terms with the truth – he’s been abandoned.
……
At the same time over at Mo Li Shang’s end, the teen was showing an annoyed yet apologetic face: “Xiachen, wait here for me okay? Don’t run around, I will first go find Piggy and come back!”
Damn it, I actually forgot something as important as this!
Piggy is so timid, he must be so scared right now!
“Okay,” hurrying a nod with that little head, “Don’t worry about me Uncle, I can wait here while you go look for Piggy.”
“You are so good Xiachen, I’m going now.” Giving the boy a rub on the head, Mo Li Shang then dashed towards the direction in which he came.
Now, alone since both of his companions are gone, Bai Xiachen could only kick the nearby rocks around due to how bored he was.
“You are… Xiachen?” Just then, an ecstatic voice suddenly came from behind.
“Grandpa Zhanpeng?” Blinking his eyes in surprise, the little steambun didn’t expect to see this familiar person here at this time.
Regarding Bai Zhanpeng, the boy did have a good impression of the handsome man due to him staying at their home during the treatment. But now…. Thanks to the influence of Ye Ying’s distasteful deeds during the past few days, Bai Xiachen’s fondness had dipped to a new low.
“Grandfather Zhanpeng, I should go find Mother now so bye-bye.”
In the heart of the boy, no one could be more important than Bai Yan. Therefore, he holds no remorse for humiliating Ye Ying, just that it meant he would be in a dilemma when facing this man.
