Chapter 396: Chapter 395 Danger Comes Quietly 1 Chapter 396: Chapter 395 Danger Comes Quietly 1 Because he was about to die–

Su Shu held the rice spoon, stunned in place, and looked at Xiao’ai in astonishment.

The little cute baby, not seeing the steamed egg custard reach her mouth, stretched out her hand to pull the rice spoon from Su Shu and swallowed the egg custard on the spoon in one bite.

“Xiao’ai…?”

Xiao’ai lifted her head.

“Did you just… speak?”

Su Shu felt it was a bit fantastical. At first, she thought Xiao’ai simply didn’t like to talk, but she had gotten used to the toddler’s silence. However, today she suddenly blurted out a sentence, and Su Shu didn’t know if she had heard wrong or had a hallucination.

Xiao’ai had her chubby little legs crossed and her tiny hands clasped in front of her like a little ingot.

Her sparkling big eyes were looking at Su Shu.

Don’t look at me like that, I’m asking you a question, Su Shu also gazed back at her.

The two of them stared at each other for quite some time when Xiao’ai suddenly nodded.

What are you nodding for, huh?!

Speak!

Su Shu held her forehead and took a deep breath, “Xiao’ai, if you can talk, don’t nod, speak.”

The little girl’s eyes whirled around, probably considering whether to speak or not.

Su Shu crossed her legs and came closer, turning the little girl’s body toward herself. This matter was very important; she needed to have a good talk with her.

If she could speak, then communication would be much more convenient in the future. Besides, for such a small child who could clearly speak but remained silent all day, it wasn’t healthy for her either.

“Xiao’ai, if you can speak, let’s not nod or shake our heads, is it okay to just talk like this?”

Fearing that the persuasive tone would frighten Xiao’ai and make her less willing to talk, she tried to keep her tone as gentle as possible.

The air seemed to stand still as she quietly waited.

Xiao’ai blinked her eyes.

“Auntie.” An exceptionally pleasant babble, with a soft and fluffy tailing sound.

Su Shu was stunned for a long time before she finally realized what Xiao’ai had called her.

She nodded vigorously, “Mm… Mm… ”

“I am your Xiao’ai.”

I am your Xiao’ai.

Su Shu had never felt that language could possess such a powerful force that made one feel as if bathed in sunlight, warm and melting.

Knowing she was by her side and hearing the little girl call her auntie were completely different experiences.

Su Shu cried with joy and hugged the little girl tightly, wishing she could squeeze her even more. After the excitement, Su Shu remembered the first sentence Xiao’ai had spoken.

“Xiao’ai, how could you say Uncle Ji Dong is about to die? You can’t say such things carelessly.”

Xiao’ai wanted to shake her head again but was timely stopped by Su Shu’s hands: “Good child, let’s talk instead.”

Su Shu was actually quite surprised. Normally, children who don’t speak for a long time would have issues with their vocal cords or articulation when they suddenly start to talk, but strangely, Xiao’ai did not have such problems. As soon as she spoke, her enunciation was clear, with no roughness or obstacles, which was truly astonishing.

“Uncle has white light on him.”

White light?!

“What white light?”

Su Shu was puzzled; she couldn’t see any light on Ji Dong. Could the little girl see something?

But when she wanted to delve deeper into her question, Xiao’ai was obviously still unable to answer her doubts well, just murmuring after a long while, again confirming, “Uncle has white light on him.”

Su Shu thought for a moment and asked her in a different way: “Aside from Uncle Ji Dong having white light, what about others? Do others have it too?”

She patted her own shoulders, “Do you see any on your auntie?”

Xiao’ai instinctively wanted to shake her head.

“Xiao’ai, speak, don’t shake your head.”

“No.”
