Chapter 121: Chapter One Hundred and Seventeen: Banquet Invitation

Translator: 549690339

After the guards had driven off the ruffians, Mi Bai was finally free. That night, he rushed to the old courtyard with two bags of grain.

The courtyard’s gate, which should have been closed, was wide open. Mi Bai’s heart tightened, and he sprinted into the courtyard.

In his intense panic, he paid no attention to whether anyone was following him and called out loudly, “Children, come out quickly.”

In the rustling sound, a young girl with pigtail crawled out from the thatch. As soon as she saw Mi Bai, her eyes reddened and she threw herself onto him.

“Wuu wuu wuu, Brother Mi Bai.” The young girl cried out, her eyes red, “I thought you didn’t want me anymore.”

A sour feeling welled up in Mi Bai’s heart, he crouched down and hugged the trembling young girl, patting her back gently and comforted her, “How could I abandon you, where is everyone else?”

The young girl buried her face into Mi Bai’s chest and replied in a muffled voice, “They all went out to find food.”

Mi Bai’s face fell, blaming himself for his powerlessness.

If it wasn’t for his pride that prevented him from talking to the shopkeeper a few days earlier, it wouldn’t have come to this.

The children had no means of obtaining food other than begging. The beggars in the West City were controlled by the Righteous Gang. Any unknown street children would be captured by them. Not to mention these homeless children, even kids from good families would also often go missing.

Of the eight children in the desolate courtyard, only the young girl remained. The rest had all gone out, Mi Bai was only hoping they would all return safely.

It wasn’t until dusk that the kids started returning one after another, some with a few copper coins, some with a bowl of cold rice, but many with empty bowls.

“One, two, three.” Seeing the sun setting in the west, Mi Bai’s heart pounded even more fiercely because Yang Fan was still not back.

Yang Fan was the leader of these children and the oldest among them. He had a maturity and kindness that far exceeded his age. However, such children were particularly liked by street thugs, because children of such quality, if sold to brothels, would earn a good amount of money.
