Chapter 126 – Hey Friend, Have You Heard of ‘Siscon’? (26)
After returning to his own room, it took a while for things to calm down. Lu Buchi squinted his eyes slightly, it was unknown what he was thinking.
After a while, his sensitive senses detected someone outside his room.
At this hour, the little girl should be fast asleep, and the other two people in the house wouldn’t be loitering outside his room for no reason.
So, who could it be?
A glint flickered in his eyes as Lu Buchi quietly stepped outside, his mental energy gathering in his hand, a coldness in his eyes.
He yanked the door open abruptly, and the familiar scent accompanied by a familiar voice made the force in Lu Buchi’s hand dissipate instantly.
He reached out, startled the girl who was hesitating whether to open the door, then she suddenly lunged forward. Lu Buchi caught the girl who fell into his arms, her soft body nestled against his chest, causing Lu Buchi’s breath to hitch.
Looking at her, with a hint of fright on her face and tears in the corners of her eyes.
Poor little thing, looking so fragile and pitiful, it tugged at one’s heartstrings.
“Sob sob… Elder Brother… You scared me to death…”
Lu Buchi unconsciously squatted down, holding Yan Luo in his arms, wiping away the tears from her eyes, and speaking softly, “Why aren’t you sleeping? What brings you here?”
His gaze fell on Yan Luo’s slightly swollen lips, and the emotions in Lu Buchi’s eyes deepened, then he averted his gaze slightly.
“Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮, feeling guilty after kissing, aren’t you?”
“I had a nightmare. Something weird was chasing me.” The girl sniffled and complained, clinging to Lu Buchi’s neck, pouting, “It’s all because of you scaring me before.”
She held onto Lu Buchi’s neck tightly, unwilling to let go.
Lu Buchi lifted Yan Luo directly, sat on the bed himself, and let her sit sideways on his lap, her small hands still holding him tightly, murmuring and unwilling to let go.
A gust of night wind passed through, causing Yan Luo to shiver involuntarily.
Lu Buchi’s eyes dimmed slightly, a glint appearing in his eyes, and the window suddenly closed shut.
When the girl in his arms gradually calmed down, with traces of tears still on her small face, but pouting and burying her head in his arms incessantly.
Cute yet pitiful.
A softness emerged in Lu Buchi’s heart as he carried the girl to the bathroom, set her down, and said softly, “Go wash your face first. If you’re still afraid later, shall Elder Brother accompany you to sleep?”
The girl still stuck to his side, looking scared, clutching his clothes and unwilling to let go.
“I’ll wait for you outside, okay?”
Watching Lu Buchi open the bathroom door and then slightly turn his body, looking outside the window, estimating the distance from the door to the bathing pool, she reluctantly nodded and walked into the bathroom.
The sound of rushing water filled the air, and the color in Lu Buchi’s eyes grew darker.
Thinking about how this little girl, encountering such a situation, didn’t seek out Yan Qi or Yan Bai first but him, that feeling in his heart diminished considerably, and he felt relaxed all over.
He lifted his hand slightly, the sensation of tears from Yan Luo’s eyes, warm turning cold, still lingered on his fingertips, which had already dried, but the feeling remained.
He licked his fingertips slightly, a bit salty…
“Elder Brother, hug.”
Yan Luo’s voice came from behind, sounding aggrieved. Lu Buchi immediately turned around without a word, covering up what he had just done, and lifted Yan Luo into his arms.
