The system takes the poor cub to find his father

Chapter 319 What is your relationship with Xiaoyu?

"What is your relationship with Xiaoyu?"

The shop owner looked a little suspicious, looking back and forth at Ling Yi who was holding the cub.

When he saw the little cub in Ling Yi's arms chewing the teether obediently, his heart was instantly melted and he couldn't help but feel love for it.

He turned around and picked up a plate of zhai zai sticks from the counter to serve to customers with cubs, reached out and grabbed a handful and put them in the big pocket on the cub's chest.

Ling Guo was stunned by the enthusiasm of the shop owner, but he reacted quickly, blinked his big eyes, and thanked the shop owner obediently.

"Thank you, Grandpa"

He held tightly in one of his little hands the teething stick his father had bought for him, and patted the candies in his pocket with the other hand. He looked so adorable.

Looking at the cute little cub, the shop owner's mouth curled up.

He couldn't help but reach out and gently pat the little cub's head under the sunhat.

In his impression, most Zerg cubs were lively and noisy. This was the first time he had seen a Zerg cub that was so well-behaved and polite.

The owner smiled, his eyes full of love.

"I am a member of Ling Yu's tribe. I came from another planet to see him. Since the planet we live on is quite remote, I haven't contacted him in the past few years. I only know that he opened a shop here," Ling Yi explained to the shop owner.

"Why is it closed now?" Ling Yi asked

"Oh! No wonder you didn't know. Xiaoyu stopped opening a store here three years ago." The shop owner sighed slightly, his words full of regret.

He looked at the father and son's attire again. Their exquisite clothes and the extraordinary demeanor they exuded did not look like they came from a remote planet.

He secretly guessed that perhaps the fallen nobles were driven to the deserted planet.

However, he was kind-hearted and did not intend to poke holes in Ling Yi and the others' wounds, so he did not ask them about their origins in detail.

"Ling Yi looked at his boss, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and had a bad feeling in his heart.

Three years ago, when I left the Imperial Capital Star and was exiled, what happened to Xiaoyu?

Ling Yi's eyes instantly became dark. He unconsciously tightened his arms around the cub.

"Alas! Xiaoyu is also pitiful."

"He came here alone to open a shop. Fortunately, he had good skills. Gradually, more and more customers came to the shop. Xiaoyu often told us that he had an older brother. Every time he mentioned the female brother, Xiaoyu's face was full of pride."

The shop owner said this with a look of reminiscence on his face.

"But Xiaoyu's shop has been open for such a long time, and we have never seen the female insect appear."

At this point, the shop owner frowned, with an indignant look on his face.

He felt somewhat disdainful of his brother who had never shown up.

Xiaoyu protected and admired him so much, but when Xiaoyu was bullied so badly, the so-called brother never even showed up.

He still remembers that heart-wrenching scene.

At that time, due to the previous incident, the surrounding Zerg could not help Ling Yu.

He saw the gang beating Xiaoyu and could only watch helplessly as the kid Xiaoyu was pinned to the ground and beaten severely.

After a long time, Ling Yu was the only one left in the store, curled up.

His thin body was covered with scars.

The shop owner couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked Xiaoyu if he wanted to tell his family and let his brother pick him up.

At that time, the expression on Xiaoyu's face made him unforgettable. Xiaoyu's eyes were empty and blank, as if she had lost all hope.

He shook his head slightly, curled up on the ground, and clasped his arms tightly, as if looking for the last bit of security in this cruel world.

Perhaps the wound was too painful, and a suppressed sob came from his throat. The sound was like a sharp knife, piercing the shop owner's heart.

That was the first time he saw the silly little female look so helpless and sad after being bullied for so long.

From that day on, Xiaoyu never came back here the next day.

"I seemed to hear the child mumbling something about wanting to be rescued, and I never saw him again."

The shop owner told Ling Yi everything he knew.

“If you had been there at that time, perhaps the child would not have been bullied so badly.” The shop owner sighed sincerely.

After a long while, the shop owner still didn't hear Ling Yi's reply.

He couldn't help but look up at the female insect with some doubt.

Although Ling Yi still had no expression on his face, the boss could feel a huge wave of pain and depression surging from him.

Ling Yi was holding the teether that he had received from the little cub. At this moment, due to his unconscious use of force, the small teether had turned into a handful of powder, which fell to the ground.

The knuckles of his hands turned white from exertion.

"Are you... okay?" Looking at Ling Yi's appearance, the shop owner couldn't help but feel a little worried. Was this female insect stimulated too much?

It’s no wonder that no one can remain indifferent when they suddenly realize that their loved ones have been bullied without their knowledge.

Even Ling Guo stopped eating candy when he heard the shop owner's words. He raised the half of his face that was covered by the sun hat and watched the shop owner's mouth open and close with burning eyes.

Maybe the shop owner was too engrossed in what he was saying, and he didn't notice the look in the kid's eyes.

Although Ling Guo didn't understand what the boss was saying,

But he understood one thing - his little uncle was bullied, bullied by a lot of bugs. They beat him and smashed his shop.

The little cub suddenly felt that the sugar in his mouth had lost its sweetness, and his little face was filled with anger and worry.

"Grandpa, where are those bugs that bullied my uncle now?"

"Uncle? Are you talking about Ling Yu? They haven't been here since his shop closed. But recently those strange bugs have started to appear here again. They have been eyeing Ling Yu's shop. They must be coming for Ling Yu. I wonder how the kid is doing now?"

"Thank you for telling me about Ling Yu."

The female insect's voice was low and hoarse, as if every word was squeezed out from the depths of her throat with great difficulty. It felt like she was suppressing the emotions that were about to erupt in her heart.

"When I find Ling Yu, I will bring him to thank you in person."

As he spoke, Ling Yi bent down and bowed deeply to the shop owner, his gesture was extremely sincere.

Seeing this, Ling Guo followed suit and bowed to the shop owner like Ling Yi. Her little face was full of seriousness, and she thanked the shop owner in a baby voice.

"Thank you, Grandpa. If you need any help in the future, Guoguo will definitely help you!"

The shop owner was amused by the little guy's cute and serious look. He smiled and touched Ling Guo's head.

"Okay, if you need anything, Grandpa will definitely ask Guoguo for help."

"Then we'll take our leave first. This is my contact number. Contact me if you have anything." After Ling Yi and the shop owner added each other's contact numbers, he left the shop with the cub under the shop owner's reluctant gaze.

The shop owner stood at the door, watching them go away, muttering to himself:

"Xiao Yu! I can tell from the first glance that your brother is no ordinary bug. No wonder you protected him so much in the beginning. I hope he can rescue you soon, ah!"

He lowered his head and looked at the small storage ring in his hand that the female insect had left silently on the counter.

He curiously opened it and saw several delay potions that were not available on the market, as well as a bag full of star coins. He couldn't help but sigh, his eyes full of emotion.

I hope the two brothers can be reunited soon!
