“I appreciate the offer, but those of the Tang family don’t require protection,” Tang Ming’er said unhappily. After all, Ning Bu Ao had spoken as if she was useless.
“That wasn’t my intent. Our families are friends, so we should help each other out.” Although Ning Bu Ao was cocky, he wasn’t stupid. He realized that he had said something he shouldn’t have, and so he quickly tried to steer the conversation back down a more pleasant avenue.
“I understood your intent perfectly fine, but I don’t require help,” Tang Ming’er said. She took the boy’s arm and said, “Littleflower, let’s go.”
When Ning Bu Ao saw the pretty girl he liked getting close to another boy, it upset him. He ran in front of the boy and pretended to be shocked. He asked, “What is your name, little bro?”
“Han Littleflower,” the boy answered while meeting Ning Bu Ao’s gaze.
When he heard the surname Han, Ning Bu Ao felt his heart take a huge leap. He was really afraid of that surname, due to something that had happened to him when he was younger.
There was a time, on a beach, when a little demon girl belonging to the Han family had lobbed him into the briny depths of the sea. Even now, Ning Bu Ao continued to have nightmares about that terrible incident. It was the most terrifying memory he had.
“Han Littleflower, he said. I don’t think such a person belongs to the Han family. Maybe he’s a member of some other family with the same surname.” Ning Bu Ao dug into his memories and felt some relief. As long as Littleflower wasn’t from that Han family, then he didn’t need to worry.
As far as Ning Bu Ao knew, the Han family only had a daughter. She was only a few years old, so there was no chance she had entered the sanctuaries just yet.
