Chapter 344 Jiang Xiaohou's killing intent fades
Jiang Xiao Hou was extrely furious at this mont!
Didn't you say you weren't in the mood? Didn't you say you don't ss around with won?
Then why did you suddenly get excited the mont this guy walked in!?
Jiang Xiao Hou stared at Xu Xue Jiao, a wave of resentnt surging in his heart.
Damn woman!
She does have a rather pretty face, and she looks quite clever.
But damn, why is this brat's chest so big? Isn't it tiring?
Lu Cheng Wen hugged Xu Xue Jiao, squishing those curves out of shape.
"Hehe, you little brat, where have you been running around this ti?"
"I had to go to work!"
"Work? You're not allowed to work anymore!"
"If I don't work, are you going to support ?"
Lu Cheng Wen squeezed Xu Xue Jiao's butt and gritted his teeth. "I'll support you to death!"
"Aiya, you're so annoying!"
Xu Xue Jiao pushed Lu Cheng Wen away and then spotted Jiang Xiao Hou. She imdiately asked, "Who is she?"
"Ah?" Lu Cheng Wen turned around, instantly losing interest. "A beggar."
"Sigh, long story. Basically, I picked her up halfway. She's dumb and useless. Zhao Gang and Jiang Shi Han misunderstood and brought her ho. I told them to get rid of her imdiately."
"Wait a second."
Xu Xue Jiao walked over and looked at Jiang Xiao Hou.
Although Jiang Xiao Hou gave off the impression of being very young, her appearance was anything but immature.
Her expression was like that of a frightened little animal, as if the slightest movent would startle her.
However, that face—without a doubt—was noble, elegant, dignified, and breathtakingly beautiful.
Xu Xue Jiao leaned closer to Lu Cheng Wen. "You picked up this girl?"
Lu Cheng Wen leaned in and spoke in a low voice, "Back in Southern Myanmar, I saved her. She's not so ordinary person. I don't know how she ended up on the streets, but I suspect her background is very complicated. I'll find a way to send her away as soon as possible."
At that mont, Jiang Xiao Hou suddenly threw herself forward, crying uncontrollably, begging not to be sent away from Lu Cheng Wen.
Lu Cheng Wen was dumbfounded. "What's going on? Did you guys scare her?"
The group quickly shook their heads, all denying it.
Hua Xue Ning scooted up to Lu Cheng Wen. "Master, this little girl is so pitiful. Can we not send her away?"
Lu Cheng Wen was extrely frustrated. "I'm not kicking her out. I'm trying to send her back ho."
Hua Xue Ning said, "I just talked to her. Her family situation is terrible. She can't go back. Just keep her here! At worst, let her stay with . I'll take care of her."
Lu Cheng Wen looked at Hua Xue Ning. "You? Take care of her?"
[You're already half-dumb yourself, and you want to take care of soone even dumber? What do you think this is, a rehabilitation center for troubled children!?]
[What the hell!?]
Hua Xue Ning pouted in displeasure. "You just think I'm dumb, don't you?"
"Aiyo, no, no, no. My Xue Ning is the smartest. Big Brain Xue Ning is never wrong."
"Then look at how pitiful she is! Just keep her!"
Lu Cheng Wen thought for a mont, then pointed at Jiang Xiao Hou. "You, co with to the study."
——
Inside the study.
Lu Cheng Wen poured a cup of warm water for Jiang Xiao Hou and handed it to her.
He gently patted her head. "Xiao Hou, don't be afraid. Do you still rember ? I saved you in Southern Myanmar. The cage... do you still rember the cage?"
Jiang Xiao Hou imdiately dropped to her knees. "I will be obedient. If Master has a cage, I will stay inside it quietly. I won't run around."
Lu Cheng Wen frowned, thinking to himself:
[Damn bastards! They turned a perfectly fine girl into a ntal wreck.]
[No wonder she was wandering the streets so cluelessly. Her brain is broken.]
Lu Cheng Wen pulled her up and let her sit on the sofa. Then, he dragged over a chair and sat very close to her, his voice incredibly gentle.
"I won't lock you up. I... You can think of as your big brother."
"Yes, Master."
Lu Cheng Wen was surprised. "Who taught you to call 'Master'?"
"Second Sister."
"Who's Second Sister?"
"The one called Xue Ning."
Lu Cheng Wen couldn't help but laugh, finding it hard to hold back.
He chuckled and said, "Her na is Hua Xue Ning. She's a good person. From now on, just call her Sister Xue Ning. Alright, I'm going to ask you so questions one by one. Just tell what you know, okay?"
Jiang Xiao Hou nodded, her big, clueless eyes staring straight at Lu Cheng Wen.
[What a bleeding-heart good guy. He really wants to go all the way and do the right thing? As expected, sticking by his side ans eting lots of interesting people and witnessing plenty of amusing events!]
"Where is your ho?"
"Beijing."
"Mm." Lu Cheng Wen nodded. "What about your father and mother?"
Jiang Xiao Hou lowered her head. "They're dead."
Lu Cheng Wen wasn't surprised. He just sighed. "Do you have any other family mbers?"
Jiang Xiao Hou shook her head. "No. They're all dead. All of them..."
Lu Cheng Wen felt a pang of sorrow.
[How many miserable souls exist in this world? No matter how much civilization advances, no matter how humanity progresses, so tragedies can never be prevented.]
Jiang Xiao Hou tilted her head, staring at Lu Cheng Wen in confusion.
[What's up with this guy!? He's feeling all sentintal over ?]
[Big brother, you're just a businessman. I've already figured you out. What are you trying to pull here?]
Lu Cheng Wen asked, "So... when they last sent you back, where did they take you?"
Jiang Xiao Hou imdiately reacted as if she had been terrified.
"No... I can't go back... I don't want to go back! Please! Please, Big Brother, don't send back! It's so scary, so scary... wuwuwu..."
Lu Cheng Wen panicked. "Alright, alright, we won't go back, we won't go back. Don't get worked up."
[Damn it, what do I do? Looks like this girl has been traumatized. What the hell were those people doing to her?]
[How could they let this child fall to such a state!? I was thinking of handing her over to the city bureau, but now it seems like those guys only care about sending people back and nothing else!]
Lu Chengwen was extrely frustrated.
"Do you have any place you want to go, or soone you can rely on? Don't worry, big brother is very capable. No matter where that person is, I can send you to them."
Jiang Xiaohou shook her head.
Lu Chengwen sighed, "What's your last na?"
"I... forgot."
"Do you still rember how old you are?"
Jiang Xiaohou shook her head again.
Lu Chengwen let out a long sigh.
"Then, from now on, you will be my little sister. You'll be my sister—are you willing?"
"Sister? Then... you will be my brother?"
Lu Chengwen smiled and nodded.
"Brother! From now on, your little sister will be obedient and never make you angry again. I won't scratch your car anymore."
Lu Chengwen gave a bitter smile.
His heart ached.
...
Night fell.
Lu Chengwen and Jiang Shihan were indulging themselves shalessly.
Hua Xuening was already used to it. She wore noise-canceling headphones and was sleeping quite peacefully.
Jiang Xiaohou stood by the window, watching Lu Chengwen thrusting atop Jiang Shihan. Her gaze was cold, colder than the moonlight.
A breeze swept past, ruffling her clothes.
Jiang Xiaohou liked to show her legs.
And she didn't like wearing shoes.
She always walked around barefoot, with her legs exposed.
With an agile movent, she flipped onto the rooftop. Seeing Hua Xuening fast asleep, her expression beca serious.
This girl's skills were average, but her talent was exceptional. In this house, if not for her own natural advantage, she probably wouldn't be able to keep herself hidden.
Even so, she had to be extrely careful.
Lu Chengwen.
You really confuse .
Should I say you're a good person?
Hah. Just a profiteer. And no matter how I look at you, you don't have the slightest aura of a good person.
But should I say you're a bad person?
That might be giving you too much credit—you're not even capable of being a proper villain.
Indecisive, lustful, overflowing with a saint complex, and astonishingly weak.
And yet, soone like you can thrive in this city? What a ridiculous world.
This world... should have been destroyed a long ti ago!
Jiang Xiaohou flipped back down. She didn't know why, but after seeing Jiang Shihan's disgraceful state of submission, the tiny bit of goodwill she had for her during the day completely vanished.
Just a shaless slut.
Keeping her around was useless.
She wondered, if she killed Jiang Shihan, what kind of state would Lu Chengwen be in?
Thinking about it, a strange smile appeared on Jiang Xiaohou's face.
At this mont, Jiang Shihan was snuggling in Lu Chengwen's arms, acting coquettishly, "Brother, that little monkey is really pitiful."
"Yeah." Lu Chengwen sighed as well. "It seems like things on her side were quite terrifying. She can't explain anything clearly, but whenever I ntion sending her ho, she gets scared out of her mind."
"Why don't we just keep her?" Jiang Shihan suggested. "Think of it as you getting another little sister. Or... hehe, I think she's really pretty. Why don't you just take her in?"
"Stop ssing around." Lu Chengwen said, "I don't want to deal with all that right now. She's already pitiful enough—how could I bring myself to lay a hand on her?"
"How old do you think she is?"
"Around... D?"
Jiang Shihan smacked Lu Chengwen. "You're awful!"
Lu Chengwen laughed, "Probably eighteen or nineteen. Sigh, keeping her is easy, but how do we arrange her life?"
Jiang Shihan said, "She seems to trust you and doesn't feel safe around anyone else."
"Yeah, because I saved her. Back in Southern Myanmar, she was one of the people I rescued."
Jiang Shihan thought for a mont. "We could have her study well and then work at our Dasheng Group in the future. What do you think?"
"That's all minor stuff. But right now, she's clearly so traumatized that she's not ntally stable—how can she go to school? If she gets bullied by bad kids, she probably wouldn't even dare to complain."
"Then what do we do?"
Lu Chengwen sighed, "For now... we'll take turns looking after her, keeping an eye on her, and helping her slowly heal. Once she can reintegrate into normal society, we'll figure out the next steps."
"She's really pretty—you didn't notice? I'm almost jealous just looking at her."
"Heh, no matter how pretty she is, I'm not interested anymore." Lu Chengwen kissed Jiang Shihan on the cheek. "Honestly, keeping her and taking care of her is simple. Money—I have plenty of that."
"Then what are you worried about?"
"Keeping her ans we're responsible for her." Lu Chengwen said, "Will she recover in the future? How do we help her regain her confidence and return to normal life? How will she support herself? What career should she have? And even in the future, when she finds a boyfriend—what if she ends up with a scumbag..."
Jiang Shihan laughed uncontrollably, "You sound like her dad!"
Lu Chengwen spoke seriously, "Since we've decided to keep her, these things must be considered!"
"Keeping her is easy, but we have to make sure she... becos better, that she finds happiness. She should have her own life and learn to make her own choices... Sigh. I'm a ss myself, and now I have to take care of soone else..."
Jiang Shihan said, "Don't think too much for now. Anyway, I'll take care of her tomorrow. And who knows? Maybe her family will find her soon and take her away."
Lu Chengwen irritably grabbed a cup. "Honestly, seeing her like this, I don't trust her family at all! How could they let a child suffer like this? They bear direct responsibility!"
"Co on, they're still her family..."
Jiang Xiaohou stood under the crescent moon, in the wind, motionless.
The cold and ruthless look in her eyes faded slightly, replaced by a trace of...
Confusion.
