Wen Ying held out her hand, and Little White backed down.
She had wanted Little White to probe Kong Jian's abilities, but her heart had softened the moment she saw his puppy-dog eyes looking at her.
Little White glared huffily at Kong Jian, but looked aggrieved when he faced Wen Ying.
Wen Ying reached out and stroked his soft head. "Kong Jian has nowhere to go, so he'll be with us for now. You have to protect him. He's just a child."
Hearing Wen Ying's words, Little White, though still not fond of the boy, puffed out his chest and looked at Kong Jian. "Hear that, kiddo? I'll protect you, got it? Even if you follow our master, you're still my little bro. Understand?"
Kong Jian blinked, looking at Little White.
In the end, he nodded.
But the instant he nodded, Little White was already perched on his shoulder. "As my little bro, you have to carry me. This is the first mission your big brother is giving you, understand?"
Kong Jian nodded pitifully.
