Chapter 1372 “To Trick a Child (4)”
“He can hold you, but not kiss.” A light flashed in the overly protective brother.
“Oh.” Ling Yan nods in a seemingly understanding manner.
Though it’s contrary to what she really thought, it doesn’t stop this girl from believing everything Bai Xiachen says.
Meanwhile on the other end, Di Jin Tian the little glutton continues to tear away at the stick of sweets in his hand. For him, the conversation was unimportant and only food remains on his mind in this case.
Perhaps maybe in the future, the twin boy would eventually realize he’s been conned in so many ways, but by then its already too late for regrets.
Then suddenly, the little glutton whose been preoccupied until smelled something even more delectable. Turning around, his eyes locked onto the fragrant smell coming out of a nearby restaurant. Slowly but surely, he toddles over to the source.
“MMMMMMmmmm!”
Right as soon as he stepped through the door, a hand had caught him by the mouth, dragging him into one corner and out of sight.
“Highness, don’t shout, I won’t hurt you so please calm down.” A soft voice came from the back, causing a puzzled look to come out of the boy who saw it was a stranger.
“My mother doesn’t let me speak to strangers.” Di Jin Tian says, his lips puckering up in displeasure.
He didn’t forget what Bai Yan taught him. Strangers are bad, and he needs to be a good little boy.
“Prince, I’m not a stranger, I’m a maid from the leopard tribe, also someone your father picked to care for your sister and you.” The woman’s face softens up as she explains, “I have a lot of food so why don’t you come with me?”
Truth was, this maid who’s trying to kidnap the gluttonous boy wasn’t doing it out of malice, rather she’s also under duress. Prior to Mu Xue’s escape from the palace, the wretched girl kidnapped this maid’s younger brother and threatened to kill him if she doesn’t do as that traitor says. Now she had no choice but to carry out this plan.
Food?
A light blooms out of Jin Tian’s eye over the idea of food, which also causes him to drool in kind.
But……
He didn’t forget his mother’s words either. As a result of that, a tied expression promptly took hold along that face.
Moments later under that antic.i.p.ating look of the maid, the little glutton shakes his head: “Mother won’t let me stranger’s food.”
Although he does want to eat it very much, but he much rather not see Bai Yan be unhappy.
“Like I said, I’m not a stranger.” The woman’s face went slightly white, rousing a sense of urgency in her voice.
Oblivious to the change, Jin Tian continues: “But I don’t know you.”
That reply was a huge stickler in the woman’s chest, making her want to suffocate from frustration.
Didn’t Mu Xue say this little prince is very gullible and easy to trick?
Why is this guy so hard to persuade then?
Getting a bit hard in the face now: “Prince, I have been ordered by your mother the queen to take care of you. Come with me and I’ll take you to eat something very nice. There are many things you’ve never tasted before….”
That tidbit at the end definitely had an effect on the boy’s mind. He looks even more tied, but in the end he still turned away for the outside despite how much he wants to stay.
“My mother said, those who try to lure me with food are bad people, I don’t believe you.”
