Chapter 60 Attitude
Bai Zhixi laughed and said, "Xiao Bai, we’re not going to have fun. If we ever go just for leisure, we’ll take you with us then."
The tone in which she spoke treated Xiao Bai’s request as if it were the impertinent demand of a playful child. Wan Chu’er mentally gave her mom a thumbs up, thinking Bai Zhixi was really good with words.
Xiao Bai pouted and scratched his head, saying:
"Aunt Bai, I’m not going out for fun. Look at you and Chuchu, two females without a man by your side, it’s too easy to be taken advantage of. If I go with you, I can help carry the load. If anyone causes trouble, I’ll be there to straighten them out."
To think he’s actually a well-meaning youth.
Wan Chu’er snorted with laughter and said, "Do you think these are chaotic times? Bad people especially targeting us mother and daughter? You need to trust the country, trust the police."
This time, it was Xiao Bai’s turn to snort with laughter. He couldn’t help but pat Wan Chu’er’s head and say, "Chuchu, you’re such an innocent good kid."
"You’re the one overthinking!"
"What’s wrong with thinking too much? I’ve seen way more of the world than you have, met all kinds of people. Some might look decent, but behind the scenes, their hearts are darker than you can imagine," Xiao Bai said confidently.
Wan Chu’er fell silent upon hearing this, her eyes moving back and forth over him several times.
