Sad

Ying Bao climbed down from Mo Yutian and ran to take a piece of the snacks. She did not eat it straight away, and instead ran back to Mo Yutian and gave it to him.2

"Here, Uncle Dragonbeard, have some."

Ying Bao looked at Mo Yutian with her pure and gentle eyes. Mo Yutian almost cried out when he saw it.

He never thought that he could one day play with Jing Xi's daughter at her home.

He played with Ying Bao willingly so that he could at least repay some of the evil things he had done to Jing Xi's family. But even if he were to become an animal, he still felt like it was something that he would owe them forever.

Mo Yutian was no longer a cold-blooded murderer. The only thing that kept him living on was the resolve to pay for his sins.

He owed it to Jing Xi and Huo Yunshen. He owed them a lot.

Only then did he realize that loving someone was to wish for their happiness.

He no longer wanted anything. It was enough for him to be able to protect the ones he loved.

"Try my mommy's snack. It's delicious!" Ying Bao smiled and said when she noticed Mo Yutian was not taking the snack.

Mo Yutian held back his urge to decline as he had to act like a child.

He took the snack and gobbled it down.

Ying Bao was happy that Mo Yutian liked the snack. She ran back to her mother to get more for him.

"Take some for yourself, too," Xu Xiyan said.

Xu Xiyan was not happy that Ying Bao was good to Mo Yutian because he had tried to kidnap her once. She could not find a way to forgive him, even if he had lost his mind.

Ying Bao gave one to Su Wanqin before eating her own portions.

"Thank you, little one, but I'm not hungry. You can have mine." Su Wanqin smiled and gave the snack back to Ying Bao.

Su Wanqin checked the time and realized it was time to leave.

"Xiao'er, come on, it's time to go," Su Wanqin said as she got up.

Mo Yutian climbed to her mother, and they were about to leave when Ying Bao pulled on her mother's hand.

"Mommy, can they stay and have dinner with us? It's sad to see Uncle Dragonbeard living alone," Ying Bao said.

In truth, Ying Bao wanted Mo Yutian to stay so that she could play with him some more.

Xu Xiyan did not reply and stared at Mo Yutian.

Mo Yutian was afraid to look Xu Xiyan in the eyes and pretended to be scratching his head so that he could avoid eye contact.

"Pretty please?" Ying Bao asked.

"Okay, okay. They can stay," Xu Xiyan said, finally giving in.

Su Wanqin was happy that her daughter-in-law agreed and took Mo Yutian into the manor.

"Come, I'll help you wash your hands," Su Wanqin said to Mo Yutian and turned to Ying Bao.

"Do you want to come with us?"

"Okay!" Ying Bao smiled and ran up to Mo Yutian, grabbing his hand as they walked into the manor.

Xu Xiyan was unhappy and confused about the situation they were in.
