Chapter 5, First Encounter with the Little Friends

A little girl's voice came from behind.

The little girl looked up at him and asked, "Will you come again?"

The little girl sulked and refused to answer

What does that mean

The evidence is conclusive, and Jin has nothing more to say. At the same time, awakening to reality, who is Master Jin? The dignified leader of the Thousand-Hand Sect is actually arguing with a little girl. Wouldn't it be laughable if this were to spread?

When I was young, my mother also taught me to recognize characters, the little girl replied softly, her tone very sorrowful, now she is no longer here, and the madam only allows my younger brother to study with the teacher

The little girl is a bit shy: "No ... ..."

As for my father, I have only seen others from a distance. The little girl also felt quite downcast, saying, "My father doesn't allow me to go out. You see, I can only sneak out every night. I didn't expect you to arrive before me tonight."

Jin could no longer restrain himself. He was not foolish enough to think that the young girl liked to run around at night because they shared common interests. As for the reasons why she ventured out alone in the middle of the night and why her family did not intervene, he was too lazy to ponder such questions

The little girl shook her head: "My father loves me very much, and he also says that girls do not need to study."

Jin's body stiffened, and his gaze suddenly turned cold. Ha, is this implying that I am poor? The leader has just added new regulations, and you insist on colliding with me; then I cannot be blamed. It is a pity that such a pleasant voice will have to be silenced for a year

Jin had remained silent for a long time, saying: "Because the person I like has died."

Jin still opens her mouth, smiling even more awkwardly than when she cries, has this girl lost her mind

No.

As he watched the small figure disappear into the thicket, Jin finally came to his senses, letting out a slight sigh. He turned his profile to the flowing water, realizing that it would be quite easy to chase after her and enforce the teachings, but he did not. He felt a bit tired and did not wish to move any further. Moreover, it seemed unbecoming for a dignified leader to pursue and bully a young girl, or perhaps, on a subconscious level, he simply did not want to chase after her.

It is clearly a topic that is both sad and heavy, yet unexpectedly, upon hearing such a dramatic remark, Jin's mood instantly improved, and he laughed heartily: "I say, little girl, who do you like?"

The little girl was puzzled: "Strange, I clearly saw you crying just now; men cry when they are hungry too"

But such a little one has such a big pair of eyes

I am also very sad

You are very good-looking. The young girl pursed her lips, lowered her eyelids, and appeared somewhat shy

Sensing the unfriendly tone, the young girl shrank back slightly, looking at him in confusion for quite a while before pouting and asking, "What are you doing here?"

In her large eyes, a faint glimmer flickered; she wiped her sleeve and turned her face away from him

He merely suppressed his anger and turned around: "What are you doing here?"

Gold still comes inexplicably: `` You? ''

The little girl pouted, lowered her head, and wore a seemingly sorrowful expression: "The person I liked has also died"

Is this a complaint that the Master has encroached upon your territory? Jin, still at a loss for words, having taken advantage of someone else's cake, decided to kindly advise: "What will you do if you run around like this and encounter bad people?"

The little girl proudly raised her face and said, "Of course, my brother cries when he is hungry"

Soon, he recalled the teachings of the sect with frustration; this girl was clearly not a person of the martial world, and even the esteemed leader of the sect could not take action against her

Gold still comes: "Who said I am hungry?"

Have you not studied?

The young girl lifted her face and glared at him angrily: "I am not a little girl; I am already fourteen years old"

It was said by my wet nurse

I do not know

Jin couldn't help but feel like he wanted to end it all; damn it, he spent the entire day focusing on passing down skills and practicing, and then got caught up in the coronation ceremony, completely forgetting to eat. Now, the dignified leader found himself embarrassed in front of a little girl.

"You are my friend, will you come and play with me?" she said, gently tugging at the hem of his robe, pleading.

It has been a long time since I have seen such eyes, pure, clean, and bright, as if the sunlight of midday illuminated him, leaving him nowhere to hide

The gold nearly twisted my nose in anger; soon, the name of this master will spread throughout the martial world. How dare you, a mere girl, criticize it unfavorably!

Really came back? Jin, come and take a look at the osmanthus cake beside you, laughing maliciously. As expected, disaster cannot be avoided. This lord shows great mercy and intends to spare you. You chose to come back yourself; who can you blame? This lord will also treat you to a piece of cake

Little did I know, as soon as these words were spoken, my stomach unexpectedly began to grumble loudly.

Under the moonlight, the neatly arranged bangs completely cover the eyebrows, revealing a pair of large, round eyes that are bright and clear, seemingly sparkling with flecks of light. The expression is one of cleverness, with a gaze filled with curiosity and a hint of fear, much like a kitten encountering something new, wanting to touch it yet hesitant to do so, thus extending its paw to cautiously explore.

If you are able to steal something, how could you be hiding here crying from hunger

The little girl pointed out: "If you are not hungry, how could you eat my cake?"

The small hands are delicate and soft, gliding smoothly against the face, providing a very comfortable sensation. Jin Hailai surprisingly finds herself somewhat distracted. She leans in closely, exuding a faint fragrance, reminiscent of osmanthus cake, yet not quite the same. Her small face appears exceptionally clear, with a tiny mouth and a delicate nose. Jin Hailai muses that this girl will surely grow into a beauty as she matures. That said, this body hardly qualifies as that of a little girl... she seems to possess nearly everything she should have...

That said, this body hardly qualifies as that of a little girl... she seems to possess nearly everything she should have...

Jin was taken aback.

He unconsciously adopted a somewhat ingratiating tone: "My name is Jin Huanlai, have you heard of me?"

The little girl sat beside him and comforted him, saying, "Don't worry, my family is wealthy, you can come to my house to steal in the future"

The little girl stood there with her hands behind her back, tilting her head as she intently observed him. When she saw him turn around, she appeared somewhat startled and shifted back slightly, her small face illuminated by the moonlight, looking pure and lovely

The little girl nodded in understanding: "Then you must be very sad, right?"

The little girl, with her big sparkling eyes, softly said: "I brought osmanthus cake"

The little girl indeed smiled, her voice like a bell

A handful of broken silver

Let me see. The little girl indeed skillfully touched his face

Forget it, today is the joyous day of my ascension to the position of the leader, I will let you off this time, do not let me catch you again

The little girl said confidently: "You have eaten my things, you should at least let me know."

I am waiting for you here

I am truly a thief, stealing things every day. "Jin, you even left behind the osmanthus cake," he said with a cold smile, "Look, I have eaten your cake, how could I deceive you?"

The little girl was stunned

The little girl asked, "How did you come here as well?"

Just as he was thinking, the little girl had already run up to him, extending her hands to offer him the items: "Is this enough?"

However, there was still a moment of hesitation

Upon noticing her attire, Jin was instantly rendered speechless. She had not yet reached the age of maturity, appearing to be merely thirteen or fourteen years old. She was essentially just a little girl!

Gold almost sprayed out: "Oh, I see. Have you ever seen a man cry?"

The little girl threw all the silver into his arms, happily saying: "This is enough to buy a lot of osmanthus cakes. I only have this much, but I can still ask my father for more. If you get hungry, just come find me"

Jin Huanlai angrily said: "Who said I cried!"

The little girl stood up in anger: "My mother is dead, you must not laugh!"

A white handkerchief is spread over the stone beside, with several pieces of cake on it

Not studying, hence not fearing thieves

Jin was stunned for a moment, and only then did he realize who she meant by "the person I like the most." He felt a great sense of regret, thinking to himself how he had automatically gone in that direction. Sigh, she is still just a little girl, this is truly inappropriate.

Jin could hardly suppress a smile: "Indeed, you are a young lady. So, what do you like? Hmm, how old is that boy?"

Clearly, the action could have been avoided, yet by some inexplicable twist of fate, Jin unexpectedly opened his mouth to bite down. For a moment, he held the cake in silence. Forget it, it is a favor for me to eat your cake; in the future, I will compensate you with a basket instead.

Jin increasingly felt awkward, making a fierce expression: "What are you laughing at!"

In a moment of impure thoughts, that little hand suddenly retracted.

The little girl sat down next to him: "This is osmanthus cake, it is very delicious"

Qiu Lingling, the name is not particularly impressive, Jin still laughed, raised her hand, causing the black cloak to flutter, and without looking back said: "I will not come again"

Having eaten someone else's food, Jin still felt it necessary to help: "She won't let you study? I'll teach her a lesson for you"

Indeed, one is soft when fed, Jin sighed and looked at her sideways: "I am a thief, are you afraid?"

Gold still comes to defeat: "Haven't you seen other men?"

Jin replied: "What do you ask this for?"

He coldly threw it back: "Not hungry."

Jin still did not like such eyes, as they made him feel as if he were running naked. He maliciously thought, what would this girl look like if he blinded her?

The little girl finally reacted: "Jin, come back... it's not pleasant!"

He was surprised that he felt guilty, so he pulled her down to sit and took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "Do you want to know who I am?"

Cut, the Master of the Pearl and Jade has thrown away no less than 10,000, so why would I care about this little bit of broken silver! Gold still wants to be grabbed and thrown back, but that hand ultimately cannot be raised.

Seeing him obediently eating the pastries, the little girl was delighted and asked, "What is your name?"

The little girl wondered: "Why should I be afraid?"

The little girl thought for a moment and asked, "Why do you want to be a thief? Is it because you have no money?"

Look at the cake in hand, it is not particularly exquisite, just an ordinary takeout item. Jin even scoffs, what kind of snacks has this master not tasted? Why would I care about a mere piece of osmanthus cake?

Who says that men cry when they are hungry

After confirming that he was not lying, the little girl thought for a moment and said, "Then you must be the worst thief."

The taste seems quite good

Jin felt quite impatient and was about to push it away with his hand. However, before he could make a move, the little girl had already lost her patience for waiting. She pulled his hand and placed the cake in his palm, saying, "I still have more."

She is indeed a woman, but this woman is just a bit too young and a bit too short

He took a deep breath and asked seriously, "I am a thief, are you not afraid?"

The little girl immediately stopped smiling, blinked her eyes twice, stuffed the cake into his mouth, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, I will treat you to this."

The gold has come to spray again

Jin is about to lose his temper again.

You think you can take advantage of me for nothing, and yet you still want to entice me? With that, I turned around and walked away confidently, saying: "I do not drink."

Who says I am the worst

"Are you hungry?" A small hand reached out in front, holding a piece of something that carried a familiar and fragrant aroma

The little girl pouted: "You are just crying."

He turned his face back and said, "Get lost, I regard you as air."

Friend? Jin turned to face this issue, tilting his handsome face to examine her. Could I have such a small friend?

After a while, someone approached

Jin smiled again, remaining silent

The little girl suddenly stood up and ran, saying: "Wait for me."

Jin frowned again; he detested those eyes

I forgot that this is not the Thousand-Hand Sect. Nowadays, even a little girl dares to be so arrogant. Master Jin was taken aback, turned his face, and chose not to pay any more attention. Forget it, as the leader of this sect, I will not stoop to the level of a child.

Unfortunately, it was only a matter of a tea's worth of time when the young girl's voice rang out again

Upon hearing this statement, Jin's fleeting impure thoughts vanished completely, leaving him both amused and bewildered. After thoroughly examining my handsome face, she then made such a remark. This is akin to being taken advantage of by a young girl!

You... you actually seem a bit annoyed, pointing at your own eyes, "Look, crying requires tears, do you see any? Do you see any?"

It turns out you are not a legitimate child, and Jin secretly sighed: "Does the madam not like you?"

He gloomily touched his face, having not gained any advantage and instead having been taken advantage of, tsk!

She pointed to the large stone beneath her and said, "This is where I sit"

Jin was still astonished

The little girl clearly does not know how to read the room, standing still in place

There is no need to say much more about gold

The little girl rolled her eyes and said: "I have wine at home, come over, I will treat you to a drink"

Jin fell silent for a moment, then stood up and gathered the remaining osmanthus cake into his arms: "I will take these to eat. It is almost dawn, you should return home early, and do not wander around at night anymore."

Why is the gold still coming unexpectedly

The little girl nervously averted her gaze: "You ... ... "

There is a saying, "A thousand pieces of gold spent will return again," have you not heard it

Hello, my name is Qiu Lingling

For a moment, the sky and the earth were still

Jin raised an eyebrow again

Turn back

Although it has been established that ordinary citizens do not run around at midnight, the esteemed Master Jin would never take the initiative to attack a woman with hidden weapons. Therefore, upon hearing that clear and cautious voice, Jin was able to promptly regain his composure and identity, forcefully retracting the hidden weapon.

There are no bad people here. The little girl does not listen

What! Jin was left dumbfounded, greatly impacted. What does it mean to be the worst thief? I am the dignified King of Thieves

The little girl came to her senses: "I don't believe it."
