The road is right under your feet

Chapter 265 Wang Liang

Bai Xing suddenly thought that the child was a beggar, and he was only five or six years old...

"Then why don't you give yourself a name? Whatever you want." Bai Xing pinched his nose gently and coaxed him softly.

The child suddenly burst into tears, tears flowing out silently, and in the blink of an eye, his face was covered with tears.

Bai Xing was shocked and suddenly at a loss as to what to do, and tried to comfort her stiffly.

When the man saw Bai Xing's unhappy expression, his narrow eyes narrowed. He thought that Bai Xing disliked the child, so he kicked the child to the ground.

Bai Xing was completely stunned. The situation happened so suddenly that he never expected that someone would dare to take action in front of him. Didn't they see that he was coaxing her?

A sharp voice came to my ear.

"Why are you crying? If you upset the adults, you won't be able to save your ten heads."

Then, there was a loud "bang" and he knelt down.

Everyone's heart sank and they felt pain for him just listening to it.

"Please spare my life, sir. This child just came here a few days ago. He doesn't know how to speak very well and doesn't have any manners. Please forgive me, sir."

White Star: "......"

If this person hadn't pleaded for the child, this kick alone would have been enough to make Bai Xing furious.

Bai Xing first helped the child up and brushed the dust off him.

The child was obviously frightened and dodged for a moment, but when Bai Xing looked at him, he stood still and let Bai Xing do whatever he wanted, his little face turning pale.

As Bai Xing was patting the child, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He moved his fingertips and spiritual power climbed up the child's body.

Soon, Bai Xing's face was filled with anger. If this wasn't the imperial palace...

Bai Xing took a deep breath, then he looked at the man who was still kneeling on the ground, "What's your name?"

The man smiled awkwardly, seemed to realize something, and wanted to slap himself in the face.

He laughed dryly and said, "My humble servant is Wang Liang."

Bai Xing nodded, "Okay, Wang Liang, go and fetch a load of salt. Remember, I want you to do it yourself and carry it back by yourself."

"Ah?" Wang Liang exclaimed in his heart. A load of salt weighs 100 kilograms, and it is far from the warehouse. Even if he doesn't bring anything, it will take half an hour if he speeds up.

If I carry another load of salt, this... this...

Wang Liang suddenly collapsed to the ground. Everyone looked at him with sympathy, some gloated over his misfortune, and some looked worried.

Then, while Bai Xing was coaxing the child, someone secretly helped Wang Liang up and walked out.

He whispered, "I've told you not to get involved in everything, not to worry about everything, but you just wouldn't listen. Now you're stuck in a dilemma. When he punished you, did the kid plead for you?"

Wang Liang shook his head subconsciously, and the child didn't even look at him.

His companion continued, "That's it. Hey, do you know the origin of that child? He was sent here by Lord Fu himself. He is luckier than us."

Wang Liang looked at him in a trance, his eyes a little out of focus.

Seeing that he finally listened, his companion continued, "So, don't worry so much. Look at you, you help him with the work, teach him how to speak, take the beatings for him, give him all the delicious food, and then you deliberately send him away for fear that he will offend the adults.

Tsk tsk, do you want to be someone's father or mother?"

He glanced back and said, "Look at him, does he seem to appreciate it? Your kindness has been taken for granted."

"In this palace, just take care of yourself and don't try to stand up for others in everything."

Wang Liang looked back and saw the child’s smile. He felt a little dazed and relieved.

"I help him, not to help him, but to help myself."

His companions were stunned. They had worked together for so many years, so they naturally knew something about Wang Liang's affairs. They felt complicated for a moment.

Wang Liang continued, "You know, I liked this child the first time I saw him, especially his eyes, which were lonely, stubborn, and obstinate, just like me when I was a child."

He paused, "You're right, his life is better than ours, that's enough, but I still can't help but want to worry about him, want him to be happier and have more smiles on his face."

"I have had a weak body since I was young, and my parents disliked me. I was sent to this cannibalistic palace, and I almost became a eunuch." He suddenly choked up, "When I was a child, I really wanted someone like this to care about me, even if it was just a simple greeting.

I want someone to tell me that I am not an unwanted child, I am not a burden, and I am as loved as my brother, even if it is just a lie. "

“The child has no parents. When I asked him about his parents, he didn’t even know what they were. He said he loved his husband the most.

I asked him who his master was, and he said he was a very powerful man who could exorcise demons and cure illnesses. I didn't believe it at first, and just thought he was finding comfort for himself.

Wang Liang said as he looked back again, "Now that I think about it, Doctor Yun should be that gentleman, right? That's good, the gentleman seems to love him, that's good. Now that the gentleman is here, the child will suffer less in the future."

His companion looked heavy-hearted, and suddenly raised his elbow to press on his shoulder, "Hey~ Don't think about that, you should think about how to carry that load of salt back. With your small body, you will be crushed."

Wang Liang burst into laughter, and the moisture in his eyes disappeared. "You still blame me, saying that we just need to take care of ourselves, but you followed me here too? If the boss finds out, you will definitely be punished."

"Go back quickly. It's just a load of salt. I am an adult man in my prime. Who are you looking down on?"

His companion snorted, "You? You're still in your prime? With your underdeveloped body, you're not even as tall as my shoulders. You can probably carry half a load of salt. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll go with you. It's worth it."

Wang Liang smiled, his eyes narrowed into slits, "This guy, he said not to worry about things, but he himself is worrying about things."

"You are the only one who said that. If anyone else whispers this in my ear, I will definitely beat him up."

His companion laughed, "Who can you beat? When did I not help you?"

"Come on, brother, you don't have to send me off. You really should go back. Leaving your post without permission is a serious crime."

Wang Liang didn't get a reply for a long time. When he turned around, he saw him walking forward without looking around, as if he didn't hear what he said.

Wang Liang couldn't persuade him, so he sighed and followed him. At worst, they would go back and get beaten together.
