This was the second time Ji Huan and Dabao had come to Yeyang.
Dabao, perhaps still remembering his experience of being sold to the Orphanage, held tightly to Ji Huan's hand and refused to let go.
But his face showed no signs of resistance, panic, or fear. 'Does this mean that Dabao is finally starting to feel a little bit secure?'
It seemed so.
It was just like on her wedding day, when Dabao had overheard some gossip and asked if she would abandon him. He had been a little anxious when he asked, but it was more like he was seeking attention. So, after a little coaxing from Ji Huan, the storm had passed.
He'd been clinging to her like a shadow these past few days, not because he was truly afraid she would abandon him, but because he was worried Guan Shan would steal his place.
In truth, he was slowly beginning to trust the fact that Ji Huan would not desert him, that she would never abandon him.
