I Can See Through Everything

Chapter 65



"......"

A person and a beast, four eyes met, but no words were exchanged.

Seeing the aggrieved look in the little black beast's eyes, Lu Qing fell silent.

He hadn't expected that this little creature would hide up here.

And judging by its appearance, it must have been waiting all night.

"Little one, have you been waiting here all night?"

After a long silence, Lu Qing asked.

The little black beast didn't move, but its eyes looked even more pitiful.

"...... Sorry, I had something to do last night and wasn't home."

"......" The little black beast still didn't move, but there was a hint of mist in its eyes.

Seeing the little black beast on the verge of tears, Lu Qing felt a strange sense of guilt.

If he remembered correctly, this little creature was still just a cub.

Moreover, it was still his creditor.

After all, he had taken its hundred-year-old ginseng for free.

"Why don't you come inside with me?" Lu Qing tentatively asked. "I still have some fish in the kitchen."

Seeing the mist in the little beast's eyes recede slightly, Lu Qing opened the door and walked in.

When he carried Xiao Yan to the room and came back out, he saw the little black beast sitting on a stool, watching him.

Lu Qing smiled, went to the kitchen, dumped all the leftover fish into a wooden basin, and brought it out, placing it in front of the little beast.

Seeing the large basin filled to the brim with fish, the little black beast's eyes lit up.

It immediately pounced and started eating voraciously.

The previous grievance vanished without a trace.

Watching the little black beast eat happily, Lu Qing couldn't help but smile.

Come to think of it, this little thing was quite remarkable.

Even though it had been hungry all night, it hadn't broken in but waited on the roof for him all night.

This respect clearly meant it considered him a friend.

Otherwise, with its nose, how could it not have smelled the fish in the kitchen?

If it wanted to break in, it would have been an easy task.

Seeing the little beast eating with abandon, Lu Qing didn't disturb it and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Although he had made breakfast for his master and others at the Halfway House, he hadn't eaten yet.

He set up a pot of porridge, added some minced meat, and let it simmer. Then, Lu Qing went to take a bath.

He had been brewing medicine for the past two days, sweating a lot, and the smoke and fire from the pharmacy had made him sticky and uncomfortable.

After his bath, Lu Qing came out refreshed and was surprised to see the little black beast still there after finishing its fish.

Instead of leaving immediately, it sat on the stool, leisurely licking its paws and washing its face.

As for the basin of fish on the ground, there was still quite a bit left.

Remarkable!

Lu Qing clicked his tongue in amazement.

It was the first time he had seen the little black beast leave fish.

Previously, whenever he fed it, it would always finish all the fish.

Even if it was too full, it would never leave any fish.

This time, he had given it twice as much fish as usual, and it finally couldn't finish it.

But this still surprised Lu Qing.

"Little one, when are you planning to leave? I'm about to wake Xiao Yan for breakfast."

Lu Qing knew that apart from him, the little black beast didn't seem to like being around others.

It would only come to eat fish at night when Xiao Yan was asleep.

But to his surprise, the little black beast acted as if it hadn't heard him.

It walked to a corner, jumped onto a cabinet, curled up, and fell asleep.

Lu Qing: ......

"I'm really going to wake Xiao Yan now?"

The little beast still didn't move.

Why was this little guy acting so strange today?

Lu Qing felt puzzled.

"...... You can stay, but if Xiao Yan sees you and gets excited, you better not hurt her."

Lu Qing reminded it, then went to wake Xiao Yan.

After urging the sleepy little girl to wash her face and brush her teeth, Lu Qing brought out the porridge he had prepared.

Xiao Yan wasn't fully awake yet.

She sipped the porridge absentmindedly, her eyes unfocused and staring blankly ahead.

Gradually, her eyes began to focus, and they grew wider and wider.

"Brother, what is that?"

Xiao Yan pointed to the black figure on the cabinet and asked quickly.

"That?" Lu Qing looked up and saw the little beast still motionless. "That's the little black beast you always wanted to see but could never catch a glimpse of."

"This is the little beast?!"

At this, the little girl couldn't drink her porridge anymore.

She jumped off the stool and ran to the cabinet, looking up.

But she was too short and couldn't see the little black beast on top of the cabinet.

This made Xiao Yan anxious.

She thought for a moment, then ran back to the table to get a stool, intending to stand on it to see the little beast.

Seeing this, Lu Qing quickly stopped her.

"Don't disturb it. Be careful, it might scratch you."

The little black beast wasn't pleased with that.

It stood up, stretched lazily, then softly called out to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan immediately cheered up, "Brother, look, the little beast said it won't scratch me!"

Lu Qing: ......

He didn't hear that.

But he could feel the little beast's friendliness towards Xiao Yan.

Thinking it over, he decided not to stop Xiao Yan from interacting with it.

Over time, Lu Qing had learned that the little black beast was highly intelligent, almost like a human.

Since it was being friendly, it probably didn't mind Xiao Yan.

"Alright, you can make friends with it then." Lu Qing said.

He then turned to the little beast and said, "Little one, don't bully my sister."

The little black beast glanced at Lu Qing disdainfully, then jumped down from the cabinet, walked up to Xiao Yan, and rubbed its head against her hand.

Then it looked at Lu Qing provocatively.

Xiao Yan was overjoyed and shouted excitedly, "Brother, the little beast wants to be my friend!"

Lu Qing saw the little black beast's smug expression.

Alright, this little thing was clearly trying to show off.

But seeing the two little ones getting along made him feel relieved.

He relaxed and smiled at Xiao Yan, "Since that's the case, you must be a good friend to it. It's very powerful, so don't make it angry."

"Don't worry, brother, I won't!" Xiao Yan answered happily.

The little black beast looked satisfied upon hearing Lu Qing praise it.

This two-legged creature had good judgment, recognizing its strength.

"Little beast, little beast, can I touch you......"

From then on, it was time for the two little ones to bond.

Seeing them getting along, Lu Qing didn't interfere.

Noticing that Xiao Yan had almost finished her porridge, he cleaned up and went to the kitchen.

Just as he finished washing the dishes, Xiao Yan ran in excitedly.

"Brother, brother, let's give the little beast a name, shall we?"
