Chapter 638
Sanwang let go of his younger brother, wiped his tears and tried to speak. However, his throat felt like it was blocked by a stone and he couldn’t wipe away his tears.
Xue Mingliang could tell at a glance that Sanwang was very frightened, so he praised him, “Young man, you are good at swimming, but you probably didn’t run or stretch before going into the water. Nevertheless, you used all your strength to save your younger brother back then and that alone deserves praise. You are a good older brother.”
Sanwang sniffed slightly, his mind still clouded with guilt and fear.
Xiaowang thanked Xue Mingliang.
Xue Mingliang asked curiously, “Aren’t you afraid?”
Xiaowang, “What should I be afraid of?”
Xue Mingliang was about to answer that he should fear death, but felt that he shouldn’t say this to mere children. He smiled and touched Xiaowang’s head instead, “What a brave child.”
Xiaowang choked and fainted as soon as he got in the water. He didn’t feel anything else except coldness and anxiety. When he woke up, all he felt was the cold as he saw his Little Third Brother hugging him. With that sight, he was just glad that his Little Third Brother managed to get out of the water, so he didn’t fear anything else beyond that.
For him, the most terrifying thing would be when his parents no longer wanted him.
When he woke up now, he was quiet, neither crying nor fussing. Instead, he held Sanwang’s arm and patted him, comforting the older boy, “Brother Sanwang, don’t be afraid. If we don’t tell mother and father, you won’t be beaten.”
Sanwang cried even harder as he was really scared.
