The middle-aged woman glanced awkwardly at Bai Yifan, then turned and ran.
Ordinary people don’t know that Gold Ability Users don’t have strong offensive power.
To ordinary people, Superpower Users are not to be ssed with.
"Mom, Mom..."
The little girl saw her mom leave and squird slightly in her dad’s arms, softly calling for her mom.
The middle-aged woman didn’t look back and quickly fled the scene.
She intended to sell her daughter for a few Crystal Cores, but she was more afraid of offending a Superpower User.
Even Brother Shui left; she didn’t know if he would bring people back for revenge. It was best to leave quickly.
Since Bai Yifan "scared" Brother Shui away, the onlookers around didn’t dare to watch any longer.
In a short while, only the middle-aged man and his daughter, along with Bai Yifan, were left.
"Thank you, little brother. If it weren’t for you, Xiao Ling would have..." The middle-aged man was full of gratitude, his eyes slightly red.
If he lost his daughter, he really couldn’t live on.
"No need to thank , no need, this is what a red scarf should do." Bai Yifan waved his hand calmly.
Suddenly, he felt much more dignified.
"My na is Zhao Wenqing, and this is my daughter Zhao Xiaoling. Xiao Ling, quickly thank Uncle!" Zhao Wenqing held his daughter and gently pressed her little head.
Bai Yifan: ...
He said he was a red scarf, when did he beco so old?
Xiao Ling pouted, and a hint of mist appeared in her big black grape-like eyes.
She held it back and couldn’t, started crying.
"Wah--I want mom!"
Three-year-old Xiao Ling couldn’t understand what it ant to be sold by her mom.
"Sweetie, do you not like Daddy anymore?" Zhao Wenqing patiently soothed her, gently patting Xiao Ling’s back to prevent her from passing out from crying.
"Don’t cry anymore, here, brother will give you so candy!"
Bai Yifan emphasized the pronunciation of "brother" heavily.
A candy with a sweet milk flavor was handed to Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling blinked, staring blankly at the candy in front of her, then glanced at the not-so-super handso big brother.
Candy, it’s sothing she hadn’t had in a long ti; so long she forgot what it tasted like.
Xiao Ling looked eagerly at her dad, her eyes filled with a questioning gaze.
Mom and Dad said not to eat things given by strangers casually.
"Eat it! Rember to thank Uncle!" Zhao Wenqing smiled elegantly.
Bai Yifan glanced at Zhao Wenqing, then looked at the three-year-old girl again.
Am I really that old?
"Thank you, Uncle!"
Dad said to call him Uncle, so she called him Uncle.
Zhao Xiaoling was an obedient child.
With a beaming smile, Xiao Ling took the candy from Bai Yifan’s hand and carefully placed it in her pocket.
Delicacies should be saved for when one is extrely hungry.
"Let’s go! I’ll see you out of here." Bai Yifan said righteously.
That Brother Shui didn’t seem like a good person, so Bai Yifan decided to escort the father and daughter out of the black market before returning to spend lavishly.
If Brother Shui had an ambush waiting, he could let the Water Python call his sister.
Let his sister beat them up!
Bai Yifan was taught from a young age to respect girls.
Especially with Mr. Bai often saying that the ratio of girls to boys is imbalanced, Bai Yifan didn’t have any special advantages and should treat girls well.
Only then he could find a wife in the future.
When encountering a girl in danger, it’s best to help.
What if that girl, in a stroke of blindness, beca his future wife?
Bai Yifan glanced at Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling was full of innocence, drooling on Zhao Wenqing’s shoulder.
Bai Yifan sighed.
Never mind, just consider it a good deed.
"What’s your na, little brother? Where is your family from?" Zhao Wenqing looked at Bai Yifan elegantly, his eyes scanning him up and down.
It seed like he wanted to rember Bai Yifan as the benefactor who saved him and his daughter.
"I’m from S City, and my na is Red Scarf." Bai Yifan answered solemnly.
Red Scarf usually doesn’t tell others their real na casually.
"You’re also from S City? So am I, which district do you live in?" Zhao Wenqing was slightly surprised.
Such a coincidence!
He encountered soone from the sa place!
"Phoenix Perch District, which district are you from?" Bai Yifan was also a bit surprised.
Just casually doing a good deed and t soone from the sa city!
"I’m from Dragon Soaring Community, but I bought a house in Phoenix Perch District earlier." Zhao Wenqing’s eyes showed a hint of loss. "I thought as the kid approaches school age, I should buy a house near City No.1 Middle School since I had the money, but who knew, the apocalypse happened."
Zhao Wenqing sighed heavily.
He poured all his efforts into his child. Even though the child just started kindergarten, he was already planning a house near a school for middle school.
"Really? We live quite close to City No.1 Middle School. My sister and I went there for middle school." Bai Yifan raised an eyebrow.
City No.1 Middle School, a hellish junior high.
Teachers assigned howork every day.
He wrote till midnight every day.
In his view, it was pathological behavior.
In parents’ view, it was a sign of a good school.
Bai Yifan and Zhao Wenqing chatted as they walked, quickly reaching a farewell point.
"By the way, which unit do you live in, little brother? If the apocalypse ends, we’ll both live in Phoenix Perch District, we must keep in touch." Zhao Wenqing asked with sincerity.
Bai Yifan thought, a good kid should do good deeds without leaving a na, one must not help others with an ulterior motive.
What if he gave out his na and address, and received a lot of gifts that would ruin his image as a red scarf?
"Where I live doesn’t matter, where does Uncle Zhao live? Once the apocalypse ends, I could also find Uncle Zhao!" Bai Yifan subtly countered.
No matter what, he couldn’t disclose where his family lived.
Bai Yifan felt the red scarf on his chest growing even redder.
"My new house is in Unit xxx of 25 Phoenix Perch District. If the apocalypse ends, I will definitely move there." Zhao Wenqing spoke with a hint of confusion.
He didn’t know when this damned apocalypse would end either.
The bewildered Zhao Wenqing did not notice Bai Yifan’s shocked expression.
It took Bai Yifan quite a while to realize, he accidentally gave out his own door number!
Oh boy!
The place is crawling with Dad’s clients!
He really wanted to know how many people his dad sold the house to!
"Cough, cough, hopefully, after this damned apocalypse ends, we can beco good neighbors."
Bai Yifan silently took out a chocolate bar from his pocket and placed it in Xiao Ling’s hand.
So it turns out to be soone his dad duped, giving an extra candy doesn’t matter.
"Wow--big brother, you’re so nice! What’s your na? When Xiao Ling grows up, she’ll definitely marry you!"
Zhao Xiaoling clutched the candy, her eyes shining brightly with joy.
She didn’t understand what apocalypse ant, only that life had been hard recently, and her family went hungry often.
So anyone who could give her candy to eat had to be a good big brother.
"Little kids shouldn’t lie. My na is Bai Yifan."
Bai Yifan clearly articulated his na and handed all the candy in his pocket to Zhao Xiaoling.
