Chapter 99: Chapter 99
Atier looked down at Yu Manman, a strange glint passing through his dark eyes.
"Dad, are you okay?" Yu Manman looked at him, her eyes filled with concern, not fear.
She believed that even if her second dad changed, he would never hurt her!
Atier remained silent.
"You nasty little girl! Made me fall!" The sturdy young male beastman bared his teeth and charged at Yu Manman again!
Atier swiftly scooped Yu Manman into his arms.
Yu Manman wrapped her arms around Atier’s neck, her eyes filled with mirth.
She knew it; her second dad wouldn’t hurt her and would even protect her!
The young male beastman brushed past Atier and took another tumble! This time, not only did he scrape his hands and feet, but he also got a bloody mark on his forehead! He even chipped a tooth!
He started wailing, "Da-da!"
He looked at the tooth on the ground, sadly calling for his dad, but even his words were whistling!
"Son!" The female beastman widened her eyes and cursed Atier, "This is our family’s only seedling! If anything happens to my baby, do you believe I wouldn’t kill you?"
The male beastman spat, rolling up his sleeves to reveal a tattoo on his arm, "Looking to die!"
Atier’s gaze was icy. Holding Yu Manman, he sidestepped the beastman’s punch.
Then, Atier moved swiftly behind the beastman and kicked the back of his neck!
The beastman cried out, collapsing to the ground.
"Help! Murder!" The male beastman’s neck hurt so much that he didn’t dare move, just lying on the ground. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel⚑fire.net
His nose hit the floor, making it hard for him to breathe!
The female quickly helped him up, only to be startled!
The beast husband’s nose was bleeding, and after lying there for a while, his whole face was a mess of blood!
"I’m dying! Dying!" He clutched his wife’s hand, "Take me to the hospital!"
Atier chuckled coldly.
Atier, holding Yu Manman, calmly turned to leave.
The female beastman had no interest left in dealing with Atier; she was scared that Atier might hit her too! That look in his eyes was terrifying! Like he could kill someone at any moment! She dared not stop him!
Yu Manman hugged Atier’s neck and said, giggling, "Second Dad is so awesome!"
Atier’s dark eyes flickered with a strange glint, "You’re not afraid of me?"
Most people dared not meet his eyes, even... his own parents would shout and want to kill him, wishing to erase his existence.
But it wasn’t surprising; he was never anything normal, heh.
Yu Manman blinked, "Not afraid! Second Dad is protecting me! I absolutely adore Second Dad!"
Atier met Yu Manman’s sparkling eyes, and the dark depths of his own seemed to hold a trace of Yu Manman’s reflection, gaining a glimmer of light.
Atier seemed to smile, leading Yu Manman into the gallery.
Yu Manman was puzzled; what was Second Dad’s smile about?
Second Dad was so strange, suddenly changing personalities. Was it dual personality?
This Second Dad was really different, so cool!
Atier took Yu Manman around for a tour.
He wasn’t particularly interested in these paintings, but seeing Yu Manman enjoy them, Atier reluctantly mustered some patience.
Yu Man finished her duties as a Purification Master for the month and returned to the hotel first.
When Atier came back with Yu Manman, Yu Man was stunned.
"Here..." Atier intended to place Yu Manman in her arms, but glanced at her belly and silently set Yu Manman down on the ground instead.
Yu Man wasn’t very familiar with Atier’s second personality, because even she had only seen him a few times.
Throughout the year, seeing him even once or twice was rare.
To those unaware, they might assume he had disappeared.
But Yu Man knew he had always been there, always protecting Atier.
Atier was always sunny and cheerful, except for some social anxiety, with no shadows from past events, all because he silently bore everything.
He swallowed all the pain, leaving the good side to Atier.
"Did anything happen today?" Yu Man asked, "Is your face okay?"
Yu Man noticed Atier’s face looked a bit red, as if he had been hit...
"It’s nothing." Atier looked at her and said coldly, "Just ran into someone blind."
"Is everything okay?" Yu Man asked cautiously again.
"It’s fine." Atier gave her an odd look, wondering why this question needed to be asked twice.
"Ahem..." Yu Man said, "I mean, is the other party okay? I’m afraid you might have been too rough."
The main personality of Atier had average combat skills, but that didn’t mean the second personality of Atier was weak.
On the contrary, the secondary personality, having grown in extreme environments, had explosive combat power.
Rather than worry about Atier, she was more curious about what Atier did to the person.
Atier was a bit speechless, sitting to the side, and said lightly, "Should be okay."
Yu Man nodded, understanding it wasn’t too serious.
If it were really something, Atier would probably be sitting in a police station.
"Manman, were you scared today?" Yu Man asked softly.
Yu Manman shook her head, "Nope!"
"Mom, Second Dad was super awesome today! He saved me twice~" Yu Manman said with a smile, holding up two fingers and wiggling them.
"Really?" Yu Man patted Manman’s head, her gaze gentle.
"Manman, do you know? Second Dad has saved you more than twice," Yu Man said, "On the day you were born, your Second Dad saved you too."
Yu Manman looked up, "Really?"
Yu Man nodded, "On the day Mom gave birth to you, I nearly fell, but it was your Second Dad who took me to the hospital!"
At the time, she was heavily pregnant with Manman, almost ready to give birth, when suddenly a thug appeared and slammed into her.
At the time, there was only Atier by her side.
Atier tried to stop him and ended up getting punched several times.
Soon after, Atier’s second personality appeared and beat the thug beyond recognition.
If her water hadn’t suddenly broken, Atier might have beaten the thug to death...
She looked up at Atier, "Thank you today."
Atier averted his eyes, "You’re welcome."
He spoke softly, his eyes still as deep as a dead pond, without much emotion.
"Second Dad is so great! Protecting both Mom and me~" Yu Manman’s eyes were bright as she fearlessly climbed onto the sofa.
Atier didn’t know what Yu Manman was about to do, but his gaze followed her, one hand moving slightly as if ready to act at any moment should Yu Manman be in danger.
Yu Manman stood up, holding onto Atier’s shoulder, her pink lips gently touching Atier’s face...
Atier’s heart stirred, and his dark eyes showed a hint of emotion.
This little rascal... truly...
Is this the bravery of the newborn calf that fears no tiger?
