LITTLE GOBLIN: Master, don't come here! Chapter 58

Peony, The Flower Fairy

Zhong Qing remained silent.

"This little boy seems to be very defensive and not very good at communicating", she thought.

Fortunately, Zhong Qing turned to be very good at dealing with children.

Yan Yan saw her smiled at him.

He was in no rush to answer his question but then he noticed her snow-white skirt on a silver pattern that was st.i.tched like the Peony of white embroidery while she was slowly walking towards the side of the table to sit down on the chair.

Even on such a simple gesture, she sat down with cla.s.s.

Yan Yan thought, then, that this woman was almost perfect.

But not at all because she was not a human.

Zhong Qing leisurely sat down finally and then looked at Yan Yan from head to toe.

In the end, the little boy looked at her with such scrutiny even if he felt that the woman in front of her was a good one. He could not help but feel a little uneasy.

“What are you looking at?” Yan Yan asked.

Zhong Qing giggled and said, “Your name is Yan Yan, and your mother is Queen of the Imperial Palace before. When you were five years old, they already taught you how to act like a prince, right?"

Yan Yan was surprised. His complexion changed. He suddenly turned pale.

He bit his lip and did not speak.

This was his scar, his scar from the past – a scar identical to a person with a blister on his body that of a ripped merciless taunt.

The tone of the Zhong Qing's voice become thinner, “They taught you to act like a prince for five years, and yet you act not like a prince that you want now to have a such vulgar revenge?"

“Wanting to kill the Emperor, the Duc, and those who hurt you and your mother are things that only a rude man who grew up in a marketplace will definitely do if he desired."

“Even if I can help you do that, then what?”

Zhong Qing's voice suddenly raised, "Then your other brothers would inherit your father's throne and the n.o.ble person will change but what about you? Your presence as a former prince will always be an eyesore to others. How will your situation now become better if your plan to revenge will be successful? Do you think it will be better or it will become worse?"

“They taught you to act like a prince, but how come can you be a brainless idiot now?"

Yan Yan slightly opened his mouth. He was trying to refute, but did not know what to say.

No one taught him how to do the best. He simply did not want to let go of those people who hurt him and his mother.

Zhong Qing looked at the face of the little boy that has a dazed look in front of her.

Zhong Qing still gave him an inscrutable smile, gently tapped her finger on the table, “I'm sorry, But I will not help you kill, Yan Yan.”

“Look at me. Look at me, Yan Yan." Zhong Qing held Yan Yan on his chin. He looked up to her face and saw her beautiful eyes.

“Do not be sad and do not worry yourself too much. Because instead of killing them, I can teach you the history of sub-set of emperor's dominance. I will teach you also the art of war on the array – how to govern the country and how to figure people's hearts. Because killing is not a solution if you want to take revenge, especially you are a former prince of the Imperial Palace. You are supposed to have an att.i.tude like a prince and not like a rude man who grew in the marketplace."

Her soft words were like a gust of wind which infiltrated Yan Yan's mind.

“These will be your weapons that will defeat the enemies. Let yourself be strong and be knowledgeable before you act. After you have everything, you will find your once powerful enemies completely trampled vulnerably.”

His eyes enlightened, filled in with a lot of hope.
