Hei Dan continued to flutter in the pool. With so many guests present today, he was obviously a bit excited. He swam to Abu’s side and then to the little grey devil, and both young demons hugged him.
Only Naji, although his eyes had always been fixed on Hei Dan, had been huddled in the farthest corner of the pool, with his hands resting on his knees, not daring to move.
In the end, Hei Dan took the initiative to lie on his lap.
He finally got tired of swimming. The little grey devil was too short and was already floating in the water. Abu was too tall and his thighs were exposed a lot. Only Naji’s knees were just at the right height, and Hei Dan was lying on them. Only his big head was exposed, and the other parts of his body can be soaked in the warm pool water like this.
For Hei Dan, Naji’s knee is… roughly… equivalent to…
Please refer to the stones in the Earth’s Turtle Box.
￣▽￣
Naji became even more nervous.
Hei Dan stretched out his little paws towards him, and Naji shook his head in panic.
Hei Dan continued to look at him.
The little demon looked at him so seriously, and then extended his thin finger and poked Naji’s hand.
Naji still didn’t dare to move.
The little demon climbed up a little and poked Naji’s face.
Naji still didn’t move.
Finally, the little demon seemed to have fixed his gaze on Naji’s big purple eyes. He stretched out his little paws, as if wanting to touch those eyes similar to jewels.
Naji knew he should close his eyes, but when he saw the little demon so close to him, he actually kept his eyes open and dared not blink.
The little demon climbed up a bit and got closer to those eyes.
Naji became even more nervous, and he didn’t completely understand why this little demon was so curious about him.
The children’s thoughts are extremely complex and yet extremely simple.
One of them wasn’t sitting steadily, and Hei Dan ended up rolling between Naji’s knees and chest, with his buttocks rolling up and down. Then he quickly crawled out of the water and adjusted himself in a comfortable posture in Naji’s thin arms. Then, he looked straight into Naji’s eyes… and saw his own reflection.
Naji’s eyes were like mirrors, faithfully reflecting Hei Dan’s small figure.
Alright, actually, Hei Dan just wanted to look in the mirror.
The satisfied little demon smiled.
Stretching out his little paws upward, the little demon’s fingers clawed in the air. Naji hesitated for a moment before stretching out his fingers.
Then his hand was caught by the little demon.
Small, soft, wet…
This is the second time Naji’s hand has been held by other demons.
The first time was when Ji Huan taught him how to peel off garlic cloves;
The second time is now.
The hot mist was steaming in the hot spring pool. Both Abu and the little grey devil closed their eyes. Only Naji huddled in a corner with Hei Dan. From time to time, the little baby’s laughter could be heard from the corner. They were having a great time playing.
Hei Dan grabbed Naji’s hand for a while, and then stopped. No matter how Naji held his hand in front of his paw, he didn’t reach out to grab it. Not only did he not grab it, but his slender little claws would also dodge the other party’s hand. Naji was a bit sad at first, but then he finally realised that the little guy wanted to catch it by himself.
It’s a very boring game, but small babies love to play with people like this. They not only enjoy being teased by others, but they also like to tease others. If it was Ji Huan or his Grandpa, they would have spontaneously interacted with Hei Dan long ago. But this was the first time Naji played with the him, and even though Hei Dan signalled for a long time, Naji didn’t understand.
Naji stretched out his hand, and the little demon, full of anticipation, also extended his little paws. Unexpectedly, Naji quickly buried his hand under the water:
“I…my strength…is very strong…” Naji stuttered and explained.
His strength is too much and difficult to control, and he was afraid of hurting this fragile little demon.
“I… I’m stupid… when I was asked to lift the sacks… I ended up crushing the truck…” At that time, the foreman asked him to put the sacks in the car, and Naji thought that he could put all the goods in one go. So he picked it all up and put it into the car according to the foreman’s instructions. But the car, which could only hold ten bags at most, was immediately crushed.
“When I went to repair the road… As a result… as a result… the foundation was shattered…” Naji also went to repair the road, and he was assigned the task of hitting the pile with a hammer. As a result, the hammer broke, the pile broke, and the foundation below also cracked.
“And when I went to the testing site… I even broke… the testing tools…” Naji used to be a black worker before, and he finally wanted to find a formal job after testing his abilities, but he ended up smashing all the stones in the testing area. Since then, he has been targeted by the old demon Adan.
As if the little demon in front of him was an adult, Naji stuttered out the reason why he didn’t want to play with him.
The little demon listened attentively, but— he didn’t understand a single thing.
After Naji finished speaking, the little demon stretched out his little paw again and asked Naji to catch him.
Seeing Naji still not coming to catch him, Hei Dan simply crawled out of Naji’s arms, and with a splash, the little demon rolled into the water.
“Ah!” Naji froze. He hurriedly reached out to grab him, feeling that he had caught something. He raised his hand and saw that it was a small paw belonging to a baby!
Naji was frightened and hurriedly dived underwater. He immediately saw the white-ringed eyes of Hei Dan in the black water.
Seeing such a little demon in the water was too stimulating for one’s eyes.
Besides, that little demon was still smiling at him…
Then……
Under Naji’s horrified gaze, Hei Dan’s missing arm suddenly lifted up, as if it had turned into black mist. Then the other arm also disappeared, and then condensed again, and by the time it took shape again, Hei Dan’s right hand had already grown.
And the remaining arm in Naji’s hand also disappeared.
In the black water, Hei Dan stretched out his little paw towards Naji again, as if signalling him to come again, come again~
Naji seemed to hear a wheezing laughter in his ears.
Then Naji was picked up by his neck.
“Are you dizzy from the heat? Why did you dive under the water?” The person who picked him up was Abu. Abu not only picked him up, but he also fished Hei Dan out of the water.
Seeing that Naji didn’t respond, Abu shouted in the direction of Ji Huan: “Xiao Hua, Naji fainted!”
Then Ji Huan ran over from the kitchen with a bag of ice cubes.
In the following time, Naji was quickly dragged up from the water by Abu, leaving only his feet soaking in the water. Ji Huan placed an ice pack on his head, and Naji sat naked by the edge of the pool.
Sitting beside him at the edge of the pool was Ji Huan.
Looking down, Ji Huan draped him with another large towel, and then stuffed a large water cup into his hands.
“Ah! Ah!” Seeing the water cup in Naji’s hands, Hei Dan also stood by the pool and called out to his uncle.
Ji Huan poured some water and then handed his own cup to Hei Dan.
Hei Dan drank several large gulps of water.
“Huh–” The little demon sighed contentedly.
Seeing Ji Huan take off his shoes and put his feet into the water, Hei Dan stretched out his little paws and hugged his uncle’s calves tightly before he completely stopped tossing and turning.
“I…I…I didn’t faint from the heat just now.” After taking a sip of water, Naji thought for a while and decided to tell the truth about what happened earlier.
“Just now… I seem to…. broke…broke… Hei Dan’s right hand… off.”
“Huh?” Abu was startled by these words and quickly went to look at Hei Dan’s right hand. The small black claws were tightly holding Ji Huan’s white calves.
Hei Dan’s claws were particularly black, while Ji Huan’s calves were particularly white, forming a striking contrast.
Looking at Ji Huan’s snow-white calves, Abu touched his nose and finally looked away, saying, “The little guy’s hands are totally fine! Look at how he’s gripping Ji Huan’s legs. If you didn’t faint from the heat, then were you hallucinating?”
The little grey devil also checked, and he looked more carefully. He then raised his head and said to Ji Huan, “It’s time for Hei Dan to cut his nails.”
“Okay.” Ji Huan touched his head.
Holding a large cup, Naji was in a daze for a while, he then lowered his head and took a big sip of water.
“You! You’re just too worried about your strength. I heard you guys playing over there just now. The little guy wanted you to grab his fingers, but you dare not grab them! It’s so easy to grab it… how can you still be afraid? And you really thought that you broke his hand. You——” With his arms outside the pool, Abu said frankly to Naji who was sitting across from him: “You just lack confidence.”
Naji:￣▽￣
“I heard what you said to Hei Dan just now. How can such a little guy understand? You should tell us these things.”
Abu continued: “Anyway, you suffered too many setbacks at work before, which made your whole person so timid. It’s not good, after all, you have to find a job.”
Naji: Huh?
This topic…why did it… suddenly turned to job hunting?
But Naji remained silent.
Because this is something he has always been worried about recently. It was fine before, but now he has friends, and all his friends have jobs. He is the only one without a job, and he feels really disappointed. Although he doesn’t feel that he lacks confidence, but…
He really wanted a job.
Naji’s hands hung on his thighs, forming one fried dough twists after another.
Several demons squinted their eyes, and finally turned to look at Ji Huan.
As the only staff working in the testing area, there are probably only a few people in Yefar who know more clearly about finding a job than Ji Huan.
Looking at the shining eyes of the three demons, Ji Huan suddenly remembered what Adan had said before, and then he seriously began to think about what Naji could do.
After thinking about it for a while, the result was — no.
There is really no job that Naji can do in Yefar.
His strength is too great. If he continues to work in a field that is not suitable for him, he is bound to cause trouble. Being tricked into doing hard work is still the best result. The work here is too chaotic, and Naji with such strength would most likely end up being dug up by the Fighting arenas, by the mercenary group, or by others——
Of course, his treatment will be much higher than that of the little grey devil, but it will be more difficult to escape. Ji Huan, who has studied many fighting arena contracts, has long discovered that those fighting arenas are simply a quagmire. Once you enter, it is almost impossible to get out. You are destined to work your whole life for others. For the simple Naji…
Ji Huan met Naji’s big purple eyes.
At this moment, those big eyes were drenched with the hot mist, filled with innocence, as pure and cute as a deer.
Such a Naji should not become a tool for others to satisfy their own selfish desires.
Ji Huan pursed his lips.
But what can he do?
Can he work in an office? But Naji is still illiterate, and he is still studying…
At this moment, the little grey devil, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: “The barbecue cooked by Naji was very delicious.”
Huh?
“Tonight, he only watched Ji Huan cook it once, and the grilled meat he cooked afterwards was very delicious…” The little grey devil continued.
At his hint, Ji Huan suddenly became enlightened.
That’s right!
Didn’t Naji want to learn cooking from himself?
He has great strength, his hunting ability is very good, and his fighting ability is also amazing. With such good conditions——
It’s totally possible to set up a stall!
With so many vegetables growing in his own garden, Ji Huan’s family couldn’t eat them all, but Ji Huan also didn’t dare sell them. Wasn’t it because he was afraid that he won’t be able to beat the people who wanted to snatch them without paying? But even though he can’t beat them, Naji can!
He has enough strength to protect himself, and there is also a sufficient supply of goods. Although he can’t speak much, setting up a stall can also improve Naji’s communication skills. Moreover, he would be the owner of his own stall, and the land can be rented from Adan.
By the way, it will also satisfy Adan’s desire of not wanting Naji to go out of Yefar early.
After thinking about everything, this job is simply made for Naji!
So, Naji, who was doomed not to be able to find a job, started preparing to set up his own business under the instructions of his friends!
