Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Hesitant to Speak

"Nannan."

Shen Wenchen suddenly became very serious.

He discovered that his little wife had a bad habit. She always liked to shoulder all responsibilities whenever she encountered any issues.

Seeing her husband’s sudden stern expression, Nanzhi pursed her lips, didn’t say much, and just looked at him with teary eyes.

"Nannan, I know you have a kind heart. But you must not shoulder all the responsibilities on your own, understand? Even if we do have some opportunities, at the end of the day we are still ordinary people. We are not gods, we cannot be perfect. I am currently the lord of Yan City, protecting people is my responsibility. But I don’t want you to carry these burdens because of your special condition."

They were not the chosen ones. They couldn’t save everyone in the world. What they could do, was just to do their best to prepare for the coming unknown disasters.

Nannan was indeed an outsider to this world, but this world itself had already begun its self-destruction. He didn’t want Nannan to blame herself for all the calamities in this world.

"I, I just feel, useless..." Nanzhi struggled to hold back her tears, but eventually, she failed. The tears dropped like broken beads, falling onto Shen Wenchen’s broad palm, causing him unspeakable heartache.

"Nannan, you are already doing great." Shen Wenchen embraced her and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.

His Nannan was the most formidable person.

If he had been transported to another world at the age of eighteen, especially at such a harsh time, he might not have been able to take care of Zhiyu.

Yet, Nannan, a young girl, did it. Not only did she keep Zhiyu alive, but she also saved the people of two villages.

In Tian Family’s village, Aze was seriously looking at the little girl in front of him.

Since entering winter, Yuanbao’s skin has become much whiter, but the weight she lost has not returned.

"Yuanbao, you made a mistake in your move just now."

Aze’s status in the village was relatively high now, after all, he came from Yan City. The people in the village respected him to a certain extent. However, this little girl always seemed to be displeased with him.

"Brother Aze, you were wrong! My move was perfectly correct!"

Yuanbao’s tiny face was full of rebellion.

She is sure her move was right!

"You..." Aze looked at her rebellious figure and felt a headache.

When the Qing Fenghan’s mountain bandits settled in the village, they needed help. The general intended to send Liu Jie, but Aze volunteered and arrived at Tian Family village from Yan City.

Shen Dong went to the Capital City, and he didn’t want to stay in the city. Although Tian Family village was remote, at least there was something for him to do.

He was trained by famous teachers since his childhood, even after abandoning his training for a few years, he still had better skills compared to the men from Qing Fenghan.

Bandits who were pardoned and settled down were only serving the court. Otherwise, how could they be allowed to live on?

Bandits were bandits, regardless of whether they did good or bad things, their names couldn’t conceal the fact.

But how the general managed to keep hundreds of people from Qing Fenghan down, he didn’t understand.

"Brother Aze, you can continue daydreaming! I’m off to play with Yueyue!"

Seeing him spacing out, Yuanbao rolled her eyes comically, waved her hand, and ran away quickly.

The other few kids who were practicing martial arts with her saw her run off, and they all felt like running off too. However, considering that Xiaoqi was here, they could only continue practicing with a downcast expression.

As he watched her dwindling figure, Xiaoqi felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

When this little girl clung to him, he found her annoying. But he felt somewhat sad when she now treated him as if he was invisible.

Someone saw him staring at Yuanbao’s retreating figure in a daze and quietly whispered to his mate next to him. The voice was not loud, but it was enough for the person involved to hear.

Xiaoqi was always fierce. He just gave the little boy a cold look, and everyone fell silent.

As Aze watched this scene, he sighed inwardly about the kids nowadays.

After running off the martial arts field, Yuanbao felt much lighter as though a burden was lifted. She originally wanted to find Yueyue to play with, but due to the rat plague, she can only go into Yueyue’s room to chat.

Ever since they started the new medication, Yueyue’s health had indeed improved. She had fewer coughing fits every day and her face began to regain some color.

As the weather was cold, and there was news from Yan City, she was inside the room, sewing thick clothes.

Seeing Yuanbao standing at the door, brushing off the snow on her clothes, Yueyue felt puzzled.

"Yuanbao, don’t you have to practice today?"

"I did well, so I came back early." Yuanbao cleaned off the snow on her body. Afraid of bringing the cold to Yueyue, she stomped her feet outside the door before going in.

"Do you feel any better now?" Yuanbao rubbed her slightly red hands together and asked after exhaling a breath of warm air.

"Much better. I can sew a few clothes every day now." Yueyue said proudly. She was capable too, she could help out!

The aunties in the village even praised her sewing skills!

"Yueyue, you are so awesome!" Yuanbao held the clothes and looked at them. She couldn’t help expressing her sincere admiration.

She couldn’t sew clothes herself, but she was great with a slingshot, hunting sparrows!

But she was also great at hunting sparrows. Each time she brought them to the kitchen, the aunties would roast them for her.Trying to put Yueyue at ease, she deliberately made a straight face.

She was able to move around in the yard before rat plague struck, but now she had to stay in her small room all day, even the windows couldn’t be opened.

"Yuanbao!"

As soon as Xiaoqi entered the room, he heard Yuanbao scaring Yueyue and immediately raised his voice.

As soon as the words were out, the young boy regretted it.

Why did he do this again?

Little boy was annoyed, but on his face, he maintained his usual cold expression.

With Xiaoqi’s voice making her heart skip a beat, Yuanbao then pouted, feeling a bit down.

"Oh, I was wrong..."

The little girl admitted her mistake very quickly, but seeing her look so deflated made Xiaoqi feel quite uncomfortable.

"I ..."

"I’m going first, Yueyue, I’ll come to see you tomorrow!"

The little girl didn’t give him the chance to apologize, after patting Yueyue’s hand, she ran away in a hurry, leaving Xiaoqi standing there, at a loss for words.
