Chapter 613 Another Monster With no other choice, Cheng Xiangyun complied and took Erbao away. Alas, Erbao wasnât cooperative.
She clearly heard a childâs voice coming from outside, so she was adamant about taking a look at the child.
Kicking her stumpy legs, she protested, âLet me go, Aunt Xiang! Thereâs a kid outside! Itâs not a bad guy!â
Cheng Xiangyun also thought Qiao Zhan was overreacting as she was pretty certain the voice belonged to a child and that there was no need for them to be so nervous.
Therefore, after she brought Erbao away from the entrance, she stopped some distance away, intending to see who the visitor was.
Of course, Qiao Zhan wasnât scared of a child. He was simply worried someone had used a kid to trick them into opening the door before launching an ambush.
After opening the door, they could see that it was indeed a child standing outside, and a pretty little girl at that.
The girl seemed to be around Erbaoâs age. She had fair skin, and a tiny mouth. Her hair was woven into two short braids, and her eyes glimmered like black gemstones.
For a second, Qiao Zhan thought she looked similar to Erbao.
After the door was opened, the girl glared at Qiao Zhan. âWhy did it take you so long to open the door?â
Before he could answer, she stepped right into the inn.
Quickly, the man grabbed her. âWhat are you doing, kid?â
The girl glared at him with disdain. âDonât touch me. Youâre a man. How can you touch a girl as you please? How shameless!â
Qiao Zhan stilled for a moment before immediately letting go of the girlâs hand. âPlease donât say that. I didnât do it on purpose.â
âYou clearly did. Who are you? Why are you so big?â The girl continued fixing her gaze on Qiao Zhan.
The man wasnât sure how he should react. âIâm an adult, so of course Iâm big. Who are you? You canât come inside here. Go play somewhere else.â
Loudly, the girl claimed, âHow about you go play somewhere else instead? This is my home! Iâm the second princess here.â
âSecond princess?â He was somewhat befuddled.
âYouâre the guest staying at my familyâs establishment, right? My mom is the queen here, so what would I be if not the second princess? Let me go! I want to go inside!â
Queen? Princess?
Qiao Zhan was utterly confounded by the royal terms she was using.
âI think I get it now, Uncle Qiao Zhan. Her mommy is the owner of the inn. This is her home,â Erbao explained.
Her soft voice drew the girlâs attention.
The girl, who was an extrovert, promptly greeted Erbao, âHi, how are you? Are you staying here?â
Erbao was ecstatic because the girl was around her age and looked pretty. Looks like Iâve found my soulmate!
Thus, she struggled to break free from Cheng Xiangyunâs grasp so that she could go over and greet the girl.
Cheng Xiangyun didnât think a child would pose any danger to Erbao, so she let go of the little girl, allowing her to socialize.
The two children speedily approached each other before stopping when they were one meter away from one another. As they curiously studied their counterpart, theyy realized that their appearances were quite similar.
âIâm Ning Sihan⦠Oh, no, Nan Sihan. Whatâs your name?â Erbao asked.
The girl was perplexed. âHow can you get your own name wrong?â
âI didnât get it wrong. I was called Ning Sihan, but then my name changed to Nan Sihan,â explained Erbao with a serious tone.
âWhy change the name? Is it because your new name sounds better?â questioned the girl, furrowing her brows.
âI donât know why, but Daddy was the one who changed it. I think both my names sound pretty nice.â
âAh, I see. Iâm Lu Yunxue. This building, Mountview Inn, takes after my name. My mommyâs the owner of this establishment!â the girl informed proudly.
Both Cheng Xiangyun and Qiao Zhan heard the girlsâ exchange clearly.
They knew the innâs owner was a woman and that she hadnât been around because she was on a trip.
The entire building was currently rented to Qiao Zhan and company. A few staff members would stop by to clean the place every day. Usually, the establishment wasnât open to other guests.
To their surprise, the ownerâs daughter, the self-proclaimed second princess, came to visit that day.
âCan we play together in the future?â Erbao asked gleefully.
Joyfully, Lu Yunxue replied, âOf course! I have lots of toys that I can share with you!â
âYay!â
Cheng Xiangyun approached Lu Yunxue. âWhere did you come from, kid? Where are your parents?â
âAre you referring to my mommy? I got separated from them at the airport, so I hailed a car and came back here by myself. They should be here soon.â Lu Yunxue put on an unbothered mien.
âYou were separated from your mother? She must be anxious right now. I bet sheâs looking for you everywhere. You should give her a call,â suggested Cheng Xiangyun.
âItâs fine. My mommy wonât get worried because I get lost all the time. When that happens, I always come back here to wait for them. You donât have to worry.â
âYou get lost all the time?â Cheng Xiangyun was shocked. Looks like this girl is yet another little monster!
âYeah, I love wandering around. If I get lost, my mommy wonât need to find me because I know my way back home.â The girl looked pleased with herself.
âArenât you afraid of running into bad people when hailing for a taxi?â
âThere are no bad guys in a police car. Itâs fine.â
Lu Yunxueâs reply shocked Cheng Xiangyun even more. So she was talking about a police car? She really is a little devil. Iâm honestly amazed that she would just ask the cops to send her back home after getting lost.
âWait. That doesnât seem right. The police officer shouldâve made sure you were with your parents before they leave.â
âThey donât have to. They know who I am and that I live here, so itâs fine.â
Cheng Xiangyun was impressed. I canât believe this girlâs treating a police car like her own private vehicle. Not to mention the officers have gotten familiar with her!
Dabao was reading a book when he heard the commotion and decided to check out what was going on.
The moment he noticed the girl resembled his sister, he instantly took a liking to her.
âWow, you two look so similar to each other! Twins, right? Thatâs so sad.â Lu Yunxue laughed, clapping.
âWhyâs that?â Her comment confused Dabao.
âEven though you two look similar, one of you is a boy, and the other a girl, meaning you two canât wear matching clothes!â
Everyone was once again befuddled. Why is it sad to not be able to wear matching clothes? She has such a low standard of considering something to be sad. According to her logic, most people around the globe are pathetic.
Dabao couldnât comprehend her logic, but he didnât like getting involved in arguments, so he kept quiet.
Right then, someone knocked on the door. Lu Yunxue promptly pointed at the entrance. âMy mommyâs back!â
Thus, Qiao Zhan opened the door and saw a beauty outside.
She had a round face, shoulder-length hair, elegant facial features, a gentle temperament, and an exquisite figure.
Next to her was a girl who was just as charming.
Her appearance was almost identical to Lu Yunxue. She was even clad in the same outfit as the other girl, though her hairstyle was different.
Most importantly, their temperament was contrasting.
Lu Yunxue was an extrovert and a social butterfly who began running her mouth as soon as she stepped in.
The girl at the entrance, on the other hand, was quiet and reserved despite looking exactly like Lu Yunxue.
Not only did she remain completely silent, but she also wore an icy expression.
Qiao Zhan met plenty of aloof people before. For example, Nan Chen was a typical cold and distant person.
However, that was the first time Qiao Zhan saw such a young child displaying a frosty expression.
