I Become Baby Mafia Boss
Chapter 106 - "Don't Ask!"
Code-C hissed and his fur rose. His body looked bigger when the cat tried to intimidate whoever barged into the room.
At the same time, Ainsley halted her cry and slowly rose from the floor. Bewilderment washed her face.
Eh? Since when the window is open? Eh, wait. Someone just opened it? I'm sure it was closed…
Ainsley's chest tightened at the thought of someone opening the window beside her. The baby immediately jumped to her feet while wiping her tears with the back of her palm.
With Code-C staying on-guard next to her leg, the baby also kept up her vigilance as she stared at the opened window.
Who is it? A thief? A robbery? An assassin? A killer? Hitman? Someone is trying to kill me–
Before Ainsley finished, all sorts of negative thoughts in her mind, a spark of golden hair entered her eyes, followed by a beautiful leapt of a boy. The wind blew hard, and the figure of the boy enlarged in her eyes.
Tap.
"Ain! Are you okay? Did the sacred guardian bully you?" Finley landed on the floor of the bedroom without noise. The boy then immediately dashed toward Ainsley and pulled her to his chest.
"What happens, ah? Why were you crying?" Finley kept Ainsley in his embrace without looking at her face. He even glared at the dumbfounded cat before distancing themselves from the cat, as if the cat was a demon king.
...hm? Fin?
Ainsley's brain stopped working for a second. The girl could only feel Fin's warm embrace and his gentle voice resounding in her ears. The next moment, she was pulled away from Code-C's place.
The boy's unique grass and sun smell lingered near her nose, soothing her nerves.
"F-fwin..?" Ainsley called out in a weak voice. The boy's hand was behind her head, pressing her head to his shoulder. She couldn't even speak clearly.
"Yes, it's me. What's going on here? Did the sacred guardian attack you? Are you hurt?" Finley slowly released Ainsley from his embrace, but he didn't let her go.
The boy started to inspect Ainsley from head to toe. He grabbed the baby's cheeks and stared at her red eyes. His delicate face was literally a few inches away from the baby's face.
"Uwh...Fwin...i-ith ish nwot like dath! (It's not like that!)" Ainsley's cheeks flushed red. Their distance was so close that she could see Finley's long eyelashes fluttering like a butterfly's wings.
Yo, gentleman, can you get your face away from me?!
Ainsley's heart dropped to the ground. She was so shocked that she forgot to cry.
"It's not like that? What is it, then? I saw the sacred guardian lying on your tummy while you're crying…" Finley bit his lips. His put on a long face as he looked at the cat in disdain.
Even if the cat is a sacred guardian, he won't allow it to hurt Ainsley!
Seeing Finley's resolute eyes fixed on her face, Ainsley felt her cheeks burn. Finley's palms were still pressing her cheeks, not letting her go.
...is this a new way to seduce people?
The baby was speechless.
Fin said that Code-C bullied me because he laid on my tummy while I cried? Well, it did happen, but…
That's not bullying, ah!
Even Code-C was stupefied. He looked at Finley with a hurt look on his face.
Human boy, what did you say? I bullied that little snot? No way! She's the one bullying me with her cries!
Code-C felt so wronged that he flopped to the floor with his ears tucked down. He almost cried like Ainsley.
Why did I become the scapegoat?!
Code-C covered his eyes with his paws as he whimpered. He sounded so grieved that Finley was puzzled.
"Uh...why is the sacred guardian like that? Is it crying?" Finley didn't release Ainsley's cheeks even as he looked at Code-C.
Ainsley peeked at the miserable Code-C and could only send a pitiful gaze at the cat.
Sorry, Code-C, you're accused for nothing!
Ainsley hurriedly grabbed Finley's palms on her cheeks and tossed it away.
'N-nwo, ywou ale wlong! Cwode-C ish noth buliying mwe! (N-no, you're wrong! Code-C is not bullying me!)" Ainsley ran to Code-C's side and squatted. She stretched her hand to stroke Code-C's fur as compensation.
This time, it was Finley's turn to be dumbfounded.
"...huh? He's not bullying you? But you cried while he was on your stomach…" Finley scratched the back of his head with an awkward smile on his face.
Shoot. Did I just accuse the sacred guardian?
Finley trembled at the thought. He might as well prepare an offering to ask for forgiveness.
"T-twat...Ain clied becwause of sometwing elsh…(t-that...Ain cried because of something else…)" Ainsley murmured. Her face slowly turned red. She couldn't tell Finley that she cried because of jealousy!
Finley gaped. The boy blinked softly. His large eyes stared at the dejected cat at the corner of the room. If he's not an idiot, he would know that he just greatly wounded the sacred guardian's feelings with his accusation.
Hahaha….I'm screwed…
Finley smiled bitterly as he scratched his cheeks, not knowing what to do.
"Ah, so, it's not because of Sir sacred guardian over there…" Finley called Code-C with 'sir' to flatter the cat, trying to ease his guilt. Unfortunately, Code-C harrumphed and refused to look at Finley.
...it's awkward.
Finley bit his lips and laughed without sounds. The boy then turned around to look at the baby. He sat on the floor and beckoned Ainsley to sit down.
"Uh, so...if you're crying not because of the esteemed sacred guardian, why are you crying then?" Finley tilted his head, not knowing that his question stabbed Ainsley's conscience.
Gah. Don't ask!!
