Chapter 574: Taken Fancy To Him

Translator: Vesper

Qiao Tian Chang knitted his brows, looking at the child holding Ning Meng Yao’s loose skirt, with anger in his eyes: “Release your hand.”

The child flinched a bit, but still grasped the hand of Ning Meng Yao’s skirt, not letting go.

“Please save me, I do not want to be with that demon.” The child’s eyes were full of fear and despair, as if he had seen something that made him unable to accept.

Seeing the child’s pitiful form, Ning Meng Yao frowned and her heart ached.

She was a mother so seeing this child, her heart cried out.

“What is it?” Ning Meng Yao looked down at the child in front of her and asked softly, the unconsciously softening voice and the smile on the corner of Ning Meng Yao’s mouth made the child think he saw a fairy.

“Behind me... someone is chasing me, it’s frightening.” As he said, he began to tremble, apparently very scared of the person chasing behind him.

Qiao Tian Chang had been in the army for so many years, and he still can read others when he sees them, but now that he saw the child, he couldn’t help wondering what was going on with the child and what happened. What made him so afraid?

“Who is chasing you? Why are you so scared?”

“It’s......”

“You little brat, I dare you to keep running! Go on!” When the child was about to speak, a vicious voice suddenly came from behind. When he heard that voice, the boy’s body turned obviously stiff, and his eyes widened in horror. Those eyes which were somewhat spirited became empty for a moment, obviously, he was very afraid of this voice.

Ning Meng Yao gave a surprised look at the child in front of her, then looked up at the person who was chasing him.

That man ... was a man who grew to be a bit good-looking, but the evilness on his face destroyed his features, and that slightly frivolous face, at a glance, people knew that it was caused by long-term indulgence in debauchery which had weakened his body.

Towards such people, Ning Meng Yao was very disgusted: “Tian Chang, let’s go.”

As soon as the child heard that they were leaving, the despair on his face became more apparent. His lifeless eyes made Ning Meng Yao frown.

What kind of inhuman treatment did the child suffer? Why did he show such despair?

“Tian Chang ... “Ning Meng Yao looked at Qiao Tian Chang. She knew their current situation and they definitely had difficulty bringing a child with them, but she felt a little distressed to see the child’s lifeless eyes.

Just at the thought of her son ever being treated in such a way, Ning Meng Yao felt uncomfortable.

Mothers had the least resistance towards children, and Ning Meng Yao was now like that.

Qiao Tian Chang reached out and pinched Ning Meng Yao’s cheek, then looked at her helplessly: “I knew you would be like this.”

“Tian Chang ...” Ning Meng Yao was a little embarrassed.

In fact, not only Ning Meng Yao, but also Qiao Tian Chang became uneasy when he saw a child giving such a look.

After having a child, for Qiao Tian Chang, children were like fairies, so they should be happy and playful.

This child was only eleven or twelve years old, but he could already display such a strong emotion. He made Qiao Tian Chang think of when he was young when he felt full of despair for the world.

“Let’s take him with us.”

“Tian Chang, you are so nice.” Ning Meng Yao laughed happily, and being able to save this child was also a kind of happiness to her.

Qiao Tian Chang reached out to pick up the child, and the two turned away together.

At this time, the person chasing had caught up and saw that his own person was being taken away by two strangers. He immediately became angry.

Together with someone else, they stood in front of them: “This child is mine, who let you take him away? Give him back to me.”

The high and mighty tone made Qiao Tian Chang frown in disgust.

“Scram.”

The person didn’t see Qiao Tian Chang just now. When he heard Qiao Tian Chang’s roaring voice at this moment, he looked up subconsciously.

When he saw Qiao Tian Chang, he became dumbfounded as he stared at the handsome man with his eyes dead set: “I want him.”
