The sunset has already ended, and a few stars slowly rise in the deep sky. The lights are lit up in the quaint mountain villa. In a large and bright study room, a young man is sitting at the table looking at a In this English book, the exposed side face is enough to capture the soul, but the temperament is full of arrogance. Even if he just sits like this, he can still feel the aura of publicity on his body.

At this time, his slender fingertips landed on the page, and his lips were slightly pursed, seeming a little displeased.

There were faint voices of male servants and maids communicating in low voices outside. It could be heard that they were trying their best to lower their voices, but Keigo Atobe was still a little dissatisfied.

It's not too flashy either.

Atobe Keigo put down the book and strode out of the study room, just in time to meet the housekeeper who came up, and he asked, "What happened? What's the noise outside?"

"Master Jingwu, a little girl ran into our villa from nowhere. She was all dirty and must have crawled in from a dog hole. We also wanted to house the girl, but she seemed very afraid of our approaching. , so the subordinates are discussing what to do."

Mr. Fujita, the housekeeper, briefly explained the matter.

"So many people in the family can't coax a child well?"

Atobe Keigo folded his arms and asked a little puzzled.

This can't be a bear kid.

"We are really afraid of her crying. When we approached her, she was so afraid that she trembled. She looked pitiful, so we didn't dare to approach easily."

Mr. Fujita, the housekeeper, thought of the girl hiding in the grass and those amber eyes with mist, and his heart softened.

I don't know what this child has gone through to be so afraid of people, and she doesn't answer when asked.

Atobe Keigo frowned and thought for a while, "Then let...forget it, I'll take a look."

He swallowed what he hadn't finished, and suddenly changed his mind.

"Yes, Master Jingwu." The housekeeper dutifully led him the way.

Seeing that the master of this villa came out in person, the servants made way consciously, and Keigo Atobe saw the curled up child hiding in the low bushes at a glance. The child was holding his leg with both hands. , the body trembled slightly, and a pair of amber eyes looked around in horror and defense.

Atobe Keigo waved his hand, signaling the people around him to step back first, and he took a tentative step closer. Soon his actions caught the attention of the child, and the child shrank back as if he had seen some monster. When she got up, she didn't care whether there were thorns in the bushes or not, even if the rough branches scratched the skin on her face, she refused to stop. Like a frightened little animal, she panicked.

But she didn't know that there was a high wall behind the bushes. This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the panic-stricken child. She stopped, and her beautiful amber eyes fell into dead silence.

Looking at the child who looked like a frightened bird, Keigo Atobe asked everyone else to leave first. He stood patiently not far from the child, with a gentle smile that was rarely seen on his face. There was a tear mole at the corner of the eye, those dark blue eyes hid goodwill, and looked at the child.

Once the gorgeous and ostentatious emperor on weekdays comes gently, it will be easier for people to indulge in it. No matter who it is, when he looks at you with dark blue eyes that hide gentleness, few people can remain indifferent. Jingwu has such a charm.

The child stared at Atobe Keigo with wide eyes, as if he was some kind of monster that ate children, and stood up against him with thorns all over his body, with desperate courage in his eyes.

Atobe Keigo had rare patience at this time, the corners of his mouth were raised, his smile was neither salty nor weak, and he looked at her leisurely.

After about half an hour, the child was probably a little tired, and his tense body seemed to be a little relaxed. Although the eyes looking at Keigo Atobe were still defensive, there was more hesitation and doubt.

Atobe Keigo caught the emotion in the child's eyes, and moved a little closer. Seeing that she was just looking at him warily, and did not run away in panic, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and with a feeling of anxiety, finally came to the child's place. in front of.

The child was wearing a heel-length white top that obviously didn't fit his figure, bare feet, long flaxen hair, mud and blood stains on his delicate face, big and clear amber eyes, just There is a lot of defense and fear inside.

If the defense is due to strangers, then is the fear in the eyes also due to strangers?

Atobe Keigo originally thought that his face was omnipotent, but it was obvious that he was deflated in front of this little girl now.

He felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that children are troublesome, but bent down, tilted his head and spoke, with an unconcealable tenderness in his tone, and handed out his hand to her: "I didn't mean to hurt you, I Just want to know who are you and why are you at my house?"

There is only one villa near here, so the appearance of this child is too weird.

How did she get here by herself?

The girl seemed to understand what Keigo Atobe said, her expression was a little loose, she looked at him with big eyes, but she didn't extend her hand.

Is this person really...?

It won't be like those "people" I met before, showing a different face when touched.

She doesn't know who she is or what her name is, she just feels that she has to live no matter what.

In order to avoid those "people", she ran for a long time in the forest, her shoes were too big to fit, she had to throw them away halfway, and she saw this castle-like house, she came from a hole Crawled in.

There are also many "people" in this castle, but she can't tell which ones are real and which ones are fake. She is afraid that she will make a mistake like just now. If she makes a mistake, they will eat her, so she dare not Trust anyone easily.

"Ah?" Seeing that the child was still silent, Atobe Keigo let out a "hum" to express his sense of existence, "Master, I seldom talk to people like this. If you don't hand me your hand, I don't care about you."

Keigo Atobe raised his eyebrows, his dark blue eyes fixed on the child.

The child hesitated for a moment, and touched his hand tentatively. After feeling the warmth of the palm, tears welled up in the child's eyes, and a layer of mist covered the big amber eyes.

His palm is warm, that is human temperature.

The child laughed and cried, looked up at the tall boy, and finally said a word: "Thank you."

The voice was very soft, but Keigo Atobe heard it in his heart.

"It's really not gorgeous," Keigo Atobe said disgustedly. He lowered his head and saw the child's bare feet, his eyebrows furrowed. After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the little girl. After a while, Atobe Jing Wu felt that the clothes on his shoulders seemed to be wet.

Why doesn't this kid make a lot of fuss? Weeping silently like this, Keigo Atobe feels like he's feeling like an old father now, and his heart is about to be pulled.

He patted the little girl on the back lightly, coaxing the creature like a child for the first time, "Okay, okay, it's okay, don't cry."

Be good, Mr. Atobe covers you, Atobe added silently in his heart.

"Master Jingwu, give this child to the maid."

When the butler saw the dirty girl coming back, he felt that the young master's normal temper would definitely be unbearable, so he quickly ordered a maid to come up, intending to let the maid take good care of the child.

Keigo Atobe didn't shirk it either. Just when he was about to hand the girl to the maid, he found that the girl was quietly hugging his neck, her eyes were as moist as water, and her long eyelashes blinked, hanging on the lashes. The tears on the bed just dripped down.

Atobe Keigo felt that his conscience seemed to be condemned, he hugged the girl tightly, and said: "Forget it, let me come, prepare the clothes for the girl, and I will give her a bath later."

The housekeeper Fujita's eyes widened, and hesitantly said: "Master Jingwu, do you want to help her wash?"

Atobe Keigo gave the butler a look, does this young master seem like someone who would do such a thing?

"Yes, Master Jingwu." The housekeeper who received the young master's gaze quickly returned to his normal expression.

Realizing that the little girl in his arms seemed to be afraid of strangers, Keigo Atobe had no choice but to let the accompanying servants go out first, then put the girl down, and planned to ask her about it.

"First of all, can you tell me your name?" Keigo Atobe looked at the girl whose eyes were still steaming, and asked in a soft voice.

He was really afraid that if his tone was a little more serious, the girl would cry for him.

The little girl pursed her lips, with tears still on her face, she shook her head silently.

Atobe Keigo rubbed his head and continued, "Then how did you get here?"

The little girl continued to shake her head, her delicate face was blank, "I'm sorry, I don't remember anything."

She stood obediently in front of Keigo Atobe, with her hands behind her back, her eyebrows lowered, her whole body was dirty, and she seemed to be shrouded in an inexplicable sadness.

Atobe Keigo looked at the little girl who was so restless that her toes were curled up, and felt that he was really like a big devil. At this time, he should actually comfort the child, instead of asking questions like a judge .

He stood up, rubbed the child's hair, snapped his fingers, and said domineeringly: "It's okay, if you don't remember, you don't remember. Anyway, with my uncle here, there is nothing that can't be solved."

The child raised his head, his eyes were a little bright, this person seemed very powerful.

Seeing the child's adoring eyes, Atobe Keigo was even more proud, thinking silently, no one can resist my grandpa's magnificence, hahahahaha.

Aware of this subtle change, the child silently lowered his head, thinking with some doubts, might it be an illusion?
