Beast Taming Begins with the Inner Circle of Pets

Chapter 83 Gains a Fangirl

Lin Manman and the other two handed their clothes to the group of people, and then Xia Ming led them to another exit and onto a land vehicle.

Wu Jingyu sat quietly next to Lin Manman, holding Xiao Qi in his arms. Although he couldn't understand what Xiao Qi was saying, with Lin Manman translating, the two of them actually got along quite well.

Seeing the scene just now, Lin Manman knew that she had made a very presumptuous request. Her senior brother was probably trying his best to satisfy them because of his daughter.

"What do you usually do during such a long holiday?" Having received a favor from her senior brother, she naturally wanted to make good use of herself.

"I don't like going out. I just stay at home reading and painting during my holidays." After watching Lin Manman's competition, Wu Jingyu's attitude towards her seemed to have undergone a subtle change.

"Actually, I don't like going out either. It's my fault for slacking off and not studying properly. After the big exams, I had to participate in the competition to try and get into a better school." Lin Manman sighed softly. This was her original goal. Who knew that participating in a competition would lead to so many things?

So much so that even the school she's attending is now uncertain.

Wu Jingyu looked at her with some surprise, "Master Aunt is so capable, why is she worried about the school? Is the admission process for the vocational high school in Jinling that strict?"

Lin Manman smiled shyly at the praise, "I didn't estimate my score for the big exam, and I didn't have much experience in matches before, so I didn't know my own level."

"Your master is so outstanding, your parents must be very proud of you, right?" Wu Jingyu said with a somewhat forlorn expression.

Mentioning her parents, Lin Manman's thoughts drifted away, and she didn't notice Wu Jingyu's expression. "My mother is very proud of me, but my father... I don't know. He disappeared in the secret realm before the New Year."

Unexpectedly, Wu Jingyu reacted strongly to these words. She looked at Lin Manman and opened her mouth several times, but then said nothing.

She lowered her head, and suddenly large tears fell onto Xiaoqi, startling Xiaoqi who whimpered, "I'm sorry..."

Her reaction startled Lin Manman, who couldn't understand why she was reacting so strongly. "It's...it's okay! Don't cry, he's just missing, he's not dead. Once I reach level eight, I'll go to the secret realm to find him."

With tears in his eyes, Wu Jingyu looked at her and said, "My mother also disappeared in the secret realm... It's been seven years."

Lin Manman felt as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer.

"I still remember that she went on a mission with her father, and in the end only her father came back. Her father also said that he would find her! But seven years have passed, and not only has he failed to find her mother, he has also been going on missions to avoid me." Wu Jingyu seemed to have finally found someone to confide in. She tried to suppress her tears, but her voice trembled uncontrollably.

Lin Manman knew that many professionals disappeared in the secret realm every year, and that most of them never returned. But she kept telling herself that there was only hope if she believed that her father was still alive.

At this moment, Wu Jingyu's tears seemed to reflect her own confusion and fear.

Lin Manman exhaled a breath of stale air, took Wu Jingyu's hand, and took the bewildered Xiao Qi in her arms.

"Don't cry, you won't look pretty if your eyes are swollen." Wu Jingyu had probably been holding back for a long time, and he was trembling all over as he cried.

"I don't know how to comfort you, and I know that if I insist they were just lost in the secret realm and not killed, you'll probably think I'm just trying to comfort myself. But people always need hope to create miracles. If you're convinced your mother is dead, then you can only passively accept that outcome. I choose to believe my father is still alive, and when I have enough strength, I'll go find him. Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, I still have a chance to create a miracle!"

Wu Jingyu stared blankly at Lin Manman; she had never thought of it that way before.

She blamed her mother for insisting on going on adventures with her father and for not staying with her. She hated her father even more, feeling that it was because he hadn't protected her mother that she became a motherless child.

But she never thought about doing anything...

Only with hope can miracles be created...

Yes, if you've already decided on the outcome of many things, then doing nothing is the true end.

"I...I also want to find my mother, but..." Her father had been searching for seven years without success.

"No matter how slim the probability, there is always hope..." This sentence was not only said to Wu Jingyu, but also to himself.

"Master...can I call you Sister Manman?" Wu Jingyu wiped away her tears, her dark eyes shining brightly after being washed by them.

Lin Manman was still immersed in the empathy of sharing a common fate, and instinctively nodded in agreement to Wu Jingyu's request.

The moment she nodded, she realized that the seniority she had just elevated had been reversed?

Given the somber atmosphere between them, Lin Manman couldn't bring herself to refuse and could only grit her teeth and accept that her niece had become her younger sister!

"There's something my dad doesn't know. I don't want to tell him either. Actually, although I didn't participate in the awakening ceremony, I awakened the Beastmaster profession on my own." Wu Jingyu lowered her eyelids somewhat awkwardly. Her long-term isolation made her a little shy about sharing her true thoughts with others.

Lin Manman belatedly realized that she wasn't upset because she hadn't awakened her professional skills, but because she was upset with Wu Jingfeng...

She glanced discreetly at Xia Ming in the passenger seat, wondering if Wu Jingfeng had heard the whole thing...

"I've always felt that becoming a professional is pointless. What good is being a powerful professional? When my mother went missing, my father was already a level nine expert, and he still couldn't protect her."

"But I don't think that way anymore. As a professional, I can choose to create miracles myself, instead of always being passively accepted. Thank you... Sister Manman."

Wu Jingyu's heartfelt thanks brought a belated sense of shame to Lin Manman, who was still reflecting on whether her words had been a bit too childish.

"I think your beast-taming style is very unique, Sister Manman. I'd like to learn about beast taming from you, is that alright?"

Why is she praising him now? She's being thanked and showered with compliments; it wouldn't be appropriate for her to refuse in this atmosphere, would it?

"Learn! Ask me anything you want, I promise I'll answer everything I know!" No wonder her spirit pets are completely under her thumb; if I were the one being flattered, I'd be a little dizzy too.

"But let's make this clear first, I haven't gone to a professional high school yet, I'm all self-taught, so if I teach you wrong, don't let your dad beat me up." After agreeing with the flattery, he realized that he hadn't actually gone to school for formal education yet.

Wu Jingyu nodded hurriedly with a smile, his eyes sparkling with a mysterious admiration as he looked at Lin Manman.

Actually, when Wu Jingyu mentioned Lin Manman's parents, Xia Ming wanted to interrupt their conversation, but there was no sound from Wu Jingfeng's side, so he restrained himself.

Unexpectedly, this unexpectedly opened Wu Jingyu's heart. He saw that she had changed her previous indifferent reaction and took the initiative to chat with Lin Manman, even humbly asking for advice. It seems that she has completely become a fangirl.
