"Ningning, I don't know what you've been through before. But from now on, I'm here. Let me be with you, okay?"
"Ningning will live a good life. No one has the right to take away your and your family's chance to survive."
The man's voice was gentle as he looked down at her. "If anyone tries, I'll get rid of them for you. You won't have to lift a finger."
'With a face like Gu Chen's, paired with that pleasant voice of his, it was far too easy to fool young girls.'
'Luckily, she was an old monster in human guise, so she could just barely resist the charm of his devastatingly good looks.'
Gu Chen reached out and ruffled her little topknot. It felt great and looked adorable. "Ningning, don't be mad at me anymore, okay? Look, I have to leave at the crack of dawn tomorrow, just after five! Why should we waste this limited time we have arguing over some unimportant psychos?"
Xie Ning just huffed, giving a noncommittal response.
