Monarch Night
Chapter 1204 - 19: Clashing from Afar, a Chance Encounter [Extra - for Silver Alliance Big Cousin Completed]
Finally, reluctantly finishing the drink, and even licking the bowl clean, his little stomach was already full, but seeing the bowl taken away, he was still filled with lingering attachment.
It was so delicious, and it was still warm!
Even now, he felt the fragrance lingering in his mouth.
The porridge was finished, and the eggs were gone too.
The little girl’s brother breathed nervously, his small hand holding his sister’s hand tightly, he was very anxious.
Because he knew that the moment to decide their fate was about to come.
In his small heart, he clearly understood that their previous escapes, protecting his sister, were just luck, but as his sister grew older and more beautiful, he knew he couldn’t protect her forever.
The only hope was to find a kind-hearted person to adopt her. For this goal, he had secretly observed for a long time.
But only today did he make up his mind.
Because he saw that when the Big Brother was distributing the sesame seed cakes, there was a sunny smile on his face and compassion in his eyes.
More importantly... a few days ago while wandering, he had seen this Big Brother from a distance, speaking to so many people.
So many people had lost their families.
At that time, Big Brother was shining brightly. Since then, he thought, wouldn’t it be great to entrust his sister to someone like this?
But he never expected that a miracle would happen right before his eyes!
So he seized this opportunity without hesitation.
Perhaps, this was the only chance! Because he wasn’t sure if, by tomorrow morning, he would still see his sister...
He feared the bad people might come at night to take her away.
"What’s your name?" Fang Che asked the little boy with a smile.
"Ren Chun," said the little boy. "My sister is called Ren Dong. I was born in spring, my sister is one year younger, born in winter."
"This is Erwa, this is Dahei, and... I don’t know their full names."
The little boy spoke clearly, with a hopeful light shining in his eyes.
Fang Che gently asked, "You want me to adopt your sister?"
Ren Chun turned over and knelt on the ground, "Big Brother... yes, I want my sister to be with you. Although my sister is young, she is very smart, well-behaved, capable of doing many things, can clean, dress herself, wash her face, and put on shoes... she, she can even wash clothes..."
"You can let her serve you, as a maid... or in a few years, she can warm the bed, it’s okay, it’s all fine... My sister will grow up to be very, very beautiful... and she has a good personality, a good temper, timid... you just need to let her survive."
"You... don’t worry, if you take her away, I will never go looking for her! I will never cause you any trouble, I... I won’t..."
Ren Chun knelt on the ground, his sister Ren Dong cried and tried to pull him up, but he firmly pushed his sister’s hand away.
And forcefully pulled his sister to kneel down with him.
Together, they kowtowed.
"Please believe me... I know you are a young master from a wealthy family, I know what you care about, so I... I won’t go looking for her, I promise... I, I..."
"...I promise I won’t even sneak a look at her... I can survive, we can all survive, but not my sister, if she stays with us, she will be taken away, she will definitely be taken away... I’m begging you... begging you..."
Ren Chun kowtowed repeatedly like pounding garlic.
He pulled his sister to kowtow, "Little Dong, kowtow to the gentleman, quickly..."
Both Dongyun Yu and Qiu Yunshangfeng Dongxiang were watching.
Feng Xiangdong couldn’t help but say, "Boss..."
Fang Che gestured with his hand to stop Feng Xiangdong from speaking further.
"If I take your sister away, what will you do?"
Fang Che asked Ren Chun with great interest.
Ren Chun showed a determined expression, pursed his lips, and said, "We can survive, you may not know, for the past two years, I have been begging with my brothers, staking territories, many adults can’t take our place, although we often don’t have enough to eat, we can still find something. We’ve managed for two years like this, I, I have lots of experience."
"You see, all nine of us have no injuries on our arms or legs... we’re... very good at running."
Fang Che asked, "Why are uninjured arms and legs so important to you?"
"Yes, legs are the most important because we have to run. If our legs are injured, we can’t run fast, and if caught, we’ll be either taken away or beaten to death... arms too, if they are injured and weak, it affects our speed..."
"What about the head? The chest? Don’t they matter?" Fang Che asked.
"No way to protect them, if by chance hit on the head or chest, then we’re dead, nothing to consider. The key is our legs, as long as our legs are good, we can keep our head alive."
Fang Che laughed, "Then, let me check your legs."
When Feng Xiangdong and Dongyun Yu heard this, they both smiled.
They knew Fang Che had made his decision.
It’s time to assess the children’s martial potential.
The little beggars obediently lined up for Fang Che to check them, Fang Che smilingly said, "Indeed, none of you have leg injuries. Impressive!"
The eyes of the nine little ones gleamed with pride.
They looked like warriors receiving praise.
Feng Xiangdong communicated silently, "Boss, how about it?"
Fang Che silently replied, "The siblings are okay, have some potential; the others are similar, all of them are fine. Overall, average. Roughly at the C level of aptitude."
Feng Xiangdong almost imperceptibly nodded. This was expected.
Such children, able to stand out among similar little beggars, must have some aptitude; but they are unlikely to be upper-level exceptional.
"What does the boss intend to do?"
"If they had no potential, I intended to take them back to the Fang Royal Mansion to give them some food." Fang Che sighed and communicated, "Since they knelt before me, I will extend my hand."
