Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 1970
It abruptly started raining outside, but Finn refused to trouble those inside Chateau de Selene. As such, he and the other Ghost members merely stood under the rain. From time to time, Finn's eyes would sweep past Baby Zetty's room. Seeing that the curtains by the window were still drifting about, Finn was filled with confusion. Was the girl not sleeping?
In order to confirm things, Finn suddenly sneezed aloud.
Baby Zetty's heart started to burn with worries.
However, at this moment, she no longer cared about whether or not she needed to avoid Finn. She picked up a few umbrellas while running downstairs.
After Finn sneezed a few times, he began laughing at his childishness.
Why was he testing out a kid's sincerity?
Was he sick in the head?
However, when Chateau de Selene's door made a creaking sound, Finn turned to see Baby Zetty's petite figure appearing in front of him. He was immediately dumbfounded.
Baby Zetty handed an umbrella to each of the Ghost members. When it was Finn's turn, she nervously shoved the umbrella in his arms. She did not even dare to meet his gaze anymore before turning around o flee.
Then, Finn's hand suddenly clasped onto hers.
Baby Zetty turned around in confusion, and she could not stop the feeling of surprise in her heart. Her eyes were filled with expectations.
"Why aren't you asleep this late at night, little girl?" asked Finn.
Baby Zetty's ears immediately started burning. Well, she could not say that she could not sleep as she was worried about him, right?
She used to be able to shamelessly speak her mind in front of him. However, now that he had a girlfriend, even Baby Zetty knew she had to exercise restraint.
"I..." she mumbled for quite some time, unable to explain herself.
Finn suddenly reached out and stroked her face, exclaiming, "Why did you lose so much weight?"
Baby Zetty giggled at him, saying, "Don't you think I've gotten more beautiful, Brother Finn?"
Finn was merely thinking about how her body had grown like a balloon and quickly shriveled back down in a couple of months. He was in no frame of mind to care about her appearance and merely cared about her health.
"Changing your physique so drastically like this is detrimental to your health. How much do you weigh right now?"
"About 50 kilograms."
Finn looked at Baby Zetty's petite body that still carried a little bit of baby fat and suddenly smiled." That's good. Just keep this weight."
Baby Zetty nodded at him. "Okay."
Suddenly, she noticed that Finn's umbrella was completely covering her while half of his body was exposed to the rain outside. He was getting soaked by the pouring rain, so Baby Zetty hurriedly covered her head while running back.
"I'm heading back now."
Finn looked at her agile-moving figure, and his smile started to freeze a little.
He suddenly discovered that he seemed to be in the wrong.
He had always regarded Baby Zetty as a child, but the child had started to carry burdens in her heart now. She was no longer the simple-minded kid from before who would fully express all of her emotions in front of him. Back then, when she frowned, he would know that something was on her mind.
The current Baby Zetty clearly wanted to see him and care about him above anything else, but she endured it and was unwilling to show it anymore.
Finn looked up at Baby Zetty's window curtains and they were no longer fluttering.
Finn's heart was suddenly filled with a sense of panic. Exactly how much was this kid hiding from them?
