“Big Bear, why does this thing open the door on its own? And what’s an ID card? Why is the crystal on the overhead so bright? And what was the bird we were sitting in? Don’t one usually sit on top of a bird and not inside it?”
He only came to Earth for a few days so there are many things Bai Xiachen still hasn’t learned yet. Coupling the situation with Di Cang’s inherent clinging to the old style of living like using oil lamps and such, the boy never got much experience in the comforts of technology, thus his odd and strange questions. And regarding the plane they flew in, the steambun here didn’t particularly like it very much, especially when it came to the speed at which it flew at. He could’ve flown here on his own and at a much faster rate.
This kid… is he mentally challenged?
Unaware of his own remarks though, those nearby who had heard it showed a look of surprise when staring at the boy.
Or did he just come out of the mountains? How can he not know what an elevator and ceiling light is?
Unlike the others though, Big Bear seems to have already become accustomed to his ward’s antics and continued to walk without emotion. He knows he’s better off ignoring the voices of others in a situation like this.
“Ha…” Suddenly, a mocking snicker came from the side of the elevator: “Is a high-end hotel some place any country bumpkin can come? You better get out of here before I call the manager!”
Originally Bai Xiachen was still captivated by the novelty of the elevator in front of himself, but now his eyes have shifted entirely to the woman that’s making a very displeased face. If one didn’t know better, they might assume the boy did something heinous to her and caused a deep grudging hatred.
If this wasn’t Wen Fei Fei then who else could it be?
She’s been in a very foul mood ever since yesterday’s excruciating pain. Therefore, she had come today to threaten Bai Yi Yi and demand the lass in helping her get the antidote from Bai Yan. However, instead of complying like this foul girl had imagined, the once soft minded Bai Yi Yi had gotten a backbone again and retaliated by yelling back. This infuriating Wen Fei Fei to the core, which in turn resulted in this outburst a the elevator. She’s using Bai Xiachen as a venting hole.
“Are you scolding me?” The boy asks with his iconic smile of innocent nature, the prelude to the downfall of all those who cross him.
Snickering some more: “If not you then who else can I be scolding? A country bumpkin like you dare to stay in a fancy hotel? Don’t you know the price of one night is equal to your whole village’s income for a year? I have to wonder what the security guards are doing to let someone like you in here.”
Despite the foul words coming out of that mouth, the steambun merely stared at the filthy girl, never once blinking like a curious child.
“What are you looking at?” Wen Fei Fei snaps again and flew into a deeper rage, “You never seen a beauty before or something? Why are you staring at me like that!”
“Oh, that…” Puckering his lips to one side, “Mother told me I shouldn’t talk to the mad dogs in the city, that’s why I didn’t say anything. I’ve always wondered what she meant, now I do.”
