God after all

Chapter 17 The Fate That Can't Be Escaped

The little boy was five or six years old, with big innocent eyes.

"I still have something to do." He wanted to use this excuse to leave.

But the boy relied on him, like a little licking dog, no matter how much his mother persuaded him, he would not let him go.

"I'll stay. Take your hand away."

Rather than having the heart to refuse this young child's request, it is true to want to get rid of the clinging entanglement of the other party.

From an angle that the handsome young man couldn't see, the little boy gave his mother a mischievous grin.

This was his first time eating in a human family, and he never imagined that he would have such a day before.

The dinner was quite normal at the beginning, but suddenly there was an accident in the middle, the woman received a call, and walked into the room with a solemn expression to have a secret conversation.

Five minutes later, she returned to the dinner table and told the young man and her son that she had to rush there in time because something happened to her friend.

"Can you send my son to kindergarten, please?"

"Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad guy?"

"what?"

The woman was stunned, she couldn't tell that the young man looked like a bad guy.

Hearing the young man calmly say "Leave it to me." An inexplicable feeling of peace welled up in the woman's chest.

"Mom, what happened?"

"Baby, let your brother take you to the kindergarten first, and tell you when your mother comes home."

The woman looked flustered, with a frightened expression on her face, she hurriedly packed her things and went out the door.

"Where do you go to kindergarten?"

The little boy grinned and obediently named a place.

The sound of cats meowing came from under their feet, Leng Ji looked down, and felt that the three or four kittens hovering around the bottom of the table looked familiar.

"Mom thinks they are very pitiful and have no home, so she brought them back last night by the way, saying that they are going to be raised."

The little boy smiled beautifully, his eyes curved into crescent moons.

I don't know whether it was infected by the child's innocent smile, or moved by the warm words in the child's mouth, a soft look appeared on the cold and gloomy face.

Ten minutes later, they went to kindergarten together.

Walking on the road, following the news reports played on the big outdoor screen, all the people on the street stopped at the same time.

Only Leng Ji, wearing a hoodie, walked on the road as if nothing had happened, turning a deaf ear to the news reporter's report of the blood demon cannibalism incident.

In fact, he already knew it well. When the little boy's mother received the call, he heard it clearly.

"Another person was eaten by the blood demon, what a pity."

"Still a young man, only in his twenties."

"When will humans be able to drive out these monsters?"

Noisy discussions arose everywhere.News reports said the victim was on his way home at eleven o'clock last night when he was unfortunately attacked.

"Mom's family was all eaten by the blood demon. My own parents are also missing. I think they are already dead."

Hearing such extremely cruel words from the boy in his arms, he was slightly stunned in a cold silence.

"I was not born to my mother, I was picked up by her."

The little boy lowered his head in desolation, with sadness on his immature face.

"Brother! Are your parents still alive?"

"I was born as an orphan." Leng Ji replied seriously for the first time.

The little boy looked at him with pity that didn't match his age.

"When I was two years old, the holy disaster broke out. People in the city were fleeing, and monsters attacked people everywhere in the streets."

Recalling the terrible past, the little boy's body couldn't help shaking.

"There is no place to escape." The child said words that made him despair, and tears blurred his eyes.

"One day my father went out to find something to eat, but he never came home.

Mom was going to find Dad and told me to stay in the basement and wait for them to come back, but I waited for a long time...they didn't come back. "

Speaking of this, pain that should not have been borne at such a young age appeared on the child's face, and his eyes became red.

"I left the house to find them, but couldn't find them anyway. I was tired and hungry until now mum picked me up."

Leng Ji listened indifferently, without saying a word.

The little boy blinked his eyes and held back his tears very strongly.

"Brother, tell me, are my parents dead? Or have they abandoned me? I've been waiting for them, and I've been looking for them, and I'm already desperate."

The word "despair" is said from the mouth of a five or six-year-old child, it is inevitable that it is too heavy, and even the tone is heavy.

"For those who haven't come back, you don't have to wait, and you don't have to look for them."

Leng Ji's voice is very cold, and combined with his unsmiling Frost appearance, he looks like a person without emotion.

But just like this, he looks cold and silent, and he will send the children to kindergarten kindly and gently.

"Doesn't the school have a car to pick you up?"

It's unbelievable that he would care about this matter, or change the subject.

"some."

The little boy smiled strangely, "While the school bus was parked downstairs at my house, I deliberately squatted in the toilet and pretended to shit.

My mother had no choice but to ask the school bus to go first, saying that she would take me to kindergarten later. "

"Why don't you take the school bus?"

"Because—" The little boy lowered his head, not daring to look into the young man's eyes, and a lovely blush flew across his cheeks.

"If I go to kindergarten by car, will I not see you when I come back from school?"

Leng Ji didn't speak, after all what the child said was the truth, there was no need for him to correct and explain this fact.

"Brother! What's your name?"

"Mo Ye."

This is just a human name he used to hide his identity from human life.

"My name is Chen Tianming, and my mother's name is Chen Yuting," the child introduced.

The most verbose thing along the way was the child in Leng Ji's arms, who was lively and cheerful, talked a lot of nonsense, had a bright and clear voice, and had a cute smile.

Sending his children to kindergarten is an ordinary and warm thing for him.

This kind of plain and peaceful feeling has never been seen before, and he feels as if he has returned to being an ordinary person.

When he stood outside the school gate, watching the scene of the child waving goodbye to him, this scene was actually a bit warm in his eyes.

"Can you give me your cell phone number?"

Thinking of this momentarily, the little boy ran back from Pidian, seriously took out the pen and paper from his schoolbag, and left his home phone number, hoping that he could also leave his contact information.

"Can we be friends? I want to be your friend."

But the five or six-year-old child actually said that he wanted to be his friend, and his words and deeds were full of seriousness and seriousness.

A gentle expression appeared on Leng Ji's face, and the corners of his mouth raised an indifferent arc that he hadn't noticed.

The child interpreted his expression at that moment as a smile. It turned out that this person who was as cold and as deep as a winter night had such a beautiful smile.

Leng Ji saw the starlight in the little child's eyes.

"why?"

"That's because... Mom said that you looked so lonely when you fell drunk next to the trash can last night."

The little boy Chen Tianming raised his hand, handed out a note, and told his elder brother very kindly:
"If you drink too much and can't go home in the future, just call this number, and my mother and I will help you."

Leng Ji chose to respect the child's behavior, and wrote a series of numbers on the note he handed over.

"I'm going first, I have something to do."

Returning the note back, he left without hesitation without looking back.

"Goodbye, Brother Mo Ye!"

The child happily waved his little hand and stood there watching him.

This encounter with human mother and child is a chess game arranged by fate, and it is also a trick of fate to him.

From the moment he was born, he was displaced and moved forward with heavy burdens, and it was only with this pair of mother and son that he felt that he had lived like a normal human being and experienced the life that normal human beings have.

However, happiness is always short-lived.

In order to promote the progress of the project of hunting the demon god, Michael, the messenger of the gods, arranged a plot in which Chen Tianming was brutally eaten by the blood demon, and cruelly sacrificed the child.

With the help of Chen Tianming's death, Michael despicably used the reason that he would be resurrected in the future to instigate Leng Ji to stay by Chen Yuting's side.

In order to save the tragic boy, Leng Ji lived temporarily in a human family.

Will Chen Tianming be resurrected in the end?
