99 She Was Not the Only One Who Was Agitated

However, a person’s birth was not something they could choose. If they could choose, who would be willing to be born with such a bloodline?

Yun Ran was definitely not a saint, but the child in front of her really reminded her of the first time she saw the two children.

The little packrat in Mo Beiyuan’s arms also saw the person in the cage. It blinked its big eyes and looked over curiously. “Father, why is that brother locked in the cage? Is it because his father hasn’t come to save him yet? When will his father come to save him?”

The little packrat’s innocent words stunned everyone present.

This was because it was Mo Beiyuan who appeared back then and saved them from the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

Therefore, in the little packrat’s understanding, children without a father would be locked up and had to wait for their father to save them.

Little Sweetcake had the potential to be a chatterbox. Even if no one answered her, she could talk to herself.

“Little Brother’s father probably doesn’t know that he’s here. If he did, he would definitely bring him home because Sweetcake’s father brought Sweetcake home.”

“What about Little Brother’s mother? Did she go find food for him? It’s not good to be hungry. Sweetcake doesn’t like to be hungry either.”

“Father, can Little Brother eat Sweetcake’s candied hawthorn?”

The girl’s words touched the softest string in Yun Ran’s heart.

Obviously, she was not the only one who was touched.

“Thunderbolt, go and bring him here.”

Mo Beiyuan gave the order. Thunderbolt made a bid and brought the child in the cage to them.

The child was draped in the ill-fitting clothes of the secret guards and was carried to them by Thunderbolt like a little chick.

Little Sweetcake greeted him with a smile. She revealed her signature sweet smile and called the child ‘Little Brother’.

Then, she reached out her little arm to hand over the candied hawthorn in her hand.

However, she was stopped by Mo Beiyuan.

Because he knew how dangerous the ghouls were, even though this was only half a ghoul, he could not let his guard down.

Besides, he didn’t like his little daughter sharing a stick of candied hawthorn with strangers.

“Candied hawthorn won’t fill his stomach. They have something else for him.”

Thunderbolt immediately understood. “Yes, yes, yes. Little Master Sweetcake, these ghouls don’t like candied hawthorns.”

They liked to drink blood.

As she got closer, Yun Ran saw the child clearly.

She understood why Mo Beiyuan said that he was half a ghoul. It was because this child had the characteristics of a ghoul. He had two sharp fangs and a pair of pointed ears. He seemed to be a little afraid of the sunlight and kept raising his arms to block the sunlight.

However, other than the characteristics of fangs and ears, the true ghouls also had a pair of Dark Night Blood Eyes. Their skin had the pallor of a dead person, and one could clearly see greenish-gray blood vessels covering their bodies.

Moreover, the skin of true ghouls would be burned by the sunlight at noon.

Seeing that he was not feeling well, Yun Ran went to the secret guard and asked for an umbrella. She held the oil-paper umbrella to block the sunlight above his head.

Seeing Yun Ran approach, Feng Chen reminded her, “Sister Yun Ran, be careful. Although he’s only half a ghoul, he still has the bloodline of a ghoul. Be careful. He may jump up and bite you.”

Feng Chen and Mo Beiyuan had seen real ghouls hunt humans.

Feng Chen’s scalp tingled when he thought of how those people had died tragically after their blood was sucked dry.

That was why he was so wary of this half-ghoul.
