Chapter 1397 - 1437: Little One: Can I Take the Kitten Home?
Jun Moyan lifted one of his sleeves and saw several bruises on his fair arm. He quickly lifted his other sleeve, finding the same bruises. Then, he pulled up both pant legs, and bruises were there too.
It seemed they were all caused by scuffles on the ground during a fight.
Jun Moyan looked at the large and small bruises scattered across him, gritting his teeth fiercely, his mind filled with murderous intent.
If it weren’t for the fact that the opponent was just a kid about An’an’s age, he might have already made sure the other party couldn’t survive.
Jun Moyan forced himself to suppress the urge to kill as he lowered the pant legs, asking, "Where else are you hurt? Where does it hurt? Tell Daddy."
Jun Moyan’s prior fierce, teeth-gritting demeanor scared the little guy. He thought Jun Moyan was angry with him.
"...Daddy, please don’t be mad at An’an, okay? An’an knows he’s wrong, An’an won’t dare next time, An’an will obediently listen to Daddy."
The little guy, with a tearful voice, took a step closer, carefully reaching to hold Jun Moyan’s hand, his eyes full of anxiety and unease as he looked at Jun Moyan.
Jun Moyan’s heart ached painfully; he held the little guy’s small hand and said, "Daddy knows An’an isn’t wrong, Daddy isn’t mad at An’an."
Seeing him so afraid of himself, Jun Moyan felt like slapping himself twice.
If Xiaoguai were here, An’an certainly wouldn’t be like this; he would surely be lively and cheerful, just like Xiaoguai, and not so quiet.
If Xiaoguai comes back and sees An’an like this, would she blame him?
He almost lost An’an; if Xiaoguai found out, how heartbroken she would be, she would surely be mad at him.
"It’s Daddy’s fault; Daddy didn’t take good care of you and didn’t even know you were bullied at school."
Although Shangguan Yu had told him, he didn’t pay much attention, leading to today’s incident.
"Daddy, don’t be sad; An’an won’t fight or run around anymore."
"It’s Daddy who owes you an apology."
Jun Moyan looked at the little guy, who looked guilty, a lump in his throat, and he took a deep breath to calm his emotions.
"How about we go home first?"
The little guy nodded, then bent down, struggling to pick up the dirty little white cat at his feet, asking Jun Moyan, "Can I take the kitten home with me?"
Jun Moyan looked at the well-behaved little white cat in his arms, then at the little guy with an expectant face yet not daring to demand, waiting obediently for him to nod.
Seeing Jun Moyan not speaking, the little guy asked again.
"Can I, Daddy? The kitten has no home; it’s really pitiful by itself, An’an has no friends and wants a kitten to keep company."
"An’an will take good care of it and won’t let it bother Daddy; I’ll clean it when we get home."
Looking at the obedient, sensible little guy, Jun Moyan couldn’t bring himself to nod and agree.
"An’an, I’m sorry, Daddy promised Mommy not to have any other cats, let alone bring them home."
"Did Daddy promise Mommy...?" The little guy looked disappointed but didn’t throw a tantrum.
"Yes."
"Does Mommy not like cats? Shangguan Daddy said Mommy also had a cat named Xiaoguai, and there are pictures of Xiaoguai in Daddy’s room. Shangguan Daddy also said Daddy was very fond of Xiaoguai."
"Xiaoguai is different from other cats; Daddy promised Mommy. If Daddy couldn’t keep the promise and had other cats, Mommy would be sad and angry."
"Would she be mad at An’an too?"
Jun Moyan didn’t answer, just looked at him; he could see the little guy truly wanted the cat.
But he couldn’t agree, Xiaoguai was so jealous; if another cat was in the house, what if she got angry and didn’t come back?
