The deadly ice-cold eyes of the cold face young man dressed in black turned completely stunningly beautiful. His phoenix eyes glowed and sparkled so exquisitely beautifully as sparks of laughter flame and burst like fireworks in his eyes. Although his face remained cold. His eyes glittered glowed and shone beautifully in laughter. If anyone who knew him would have seen him, they would completely froze in their tracks in shock and amazement.

"Okay but not today, I have much to do today, I will come next time though. But what I want you to understand is this. It's pretty obvious to me that you come from an important family. What if you got kidnapped before your family was able to get to you?"

The amusement and grin immediately drain from Little Dumpling's face. In shock, fear, and complete outrage, he said loudly, almost screaming, "Who would dare!"

"If your family have enemies, do you realize you have just given them the perfect opportunity? Don't forget we've already announced in the middle of the street that you've already run away from home." Liu Tián Qǔ could see that Little Dumpling was starting to understand the situation finally.

Little Dumpling's face once again turned ashen. Naked, undisguised fear was printed out on his face. His fear for his family was undisguised.

Nodding gravely, Liu Tián Qǔ said sternly admonishing Little Dumpling. "Now, you are beginning to understand. I wasn't just running my mouth when I scolded your father." With wide eyes full of fear and new understandings. Little Dumpling quietly listened to Liu Tián Qǔ as she scolded him and his father. "This is something he should have taught you long ago. I could tell from your attitude, demeanor, clothes, and even the way you spoke of your family that you are loved and spoiled. Am I right?"

Little Dumpling nodded his head eye still wide with fear.

"Now, what if someone kidnapped you and threatened your father with your life? What if they told him to do something bad and threatened to kill you if he didn't do it? Can you see the danger now?"

Little dumpling's head bobbed up and down in understanding. Sweat broke out on his forehead, and his back was drenched in sweat. It's was only now that he finally understood that the potential consequence of his actions was not a bill he could afford to pay. "Home, I've got... I've got to go home now." Little Dumpling stammered out in fear, turned around, and was about to run home.

Grabbing the back of his tunic, "Little Dumpling," Liu Tián Qǔ cried, holding him so he couldn't run away.

See that Little Dumpling had panicked, Liu Tián Qǔ spoke in a firm, calm, and stern voice. "Little Dumpling, the worse thing you can do now is run off by yourself in a panic. Calm down."

Little Dumpling was covered in the sweat of fear and panting as though he had run a marathon. Waiting a few moments until Little dumpling calmed down enough so she could get through to him, Liu Tián Q said. "In a situation like this, the best thing to do is to stay with the crowd." Liu Tián Qǔ spoke softly. "Nine times out of ten criminals are not so bold to act with a crowd watching. Do you know why?"

Little Dumpling head shook back and forth like a rattle drum. However, he was calming down.

"Too many witnesses, of course, you have some criminals that don't care and know how to still commit a crime while using the crowd as cover. So stay with me and let me take you home. We are going to recruit some people who don't mind walking with us to see you home safely."

"Okay, then I will stay with big brother." Little Dumpling quickly agreed.

"Good, that is why I said running away from home is a skill. The most important thing about running away from home is to make sure you have a safe place to go. Okay? So next time you need to run away from home, think more about it, okay?"

"Okay, next time, I will give it more thought." Little Dumpling said.

While Little Dumpling answered, Liu Tián Qǔ finally turned around and stared the cold face young man full flush in the eyes and said, "Hello Big Brother," completely catching the cold faced young man by surprise. He was a very beautiful but cold young man. At 6'2," he had jade-like skin and phoenix eyes that were very cold. He was dressed in a beautiful silk black hanfu with his hair half down and a half up in a top knot with a black hairpin. There was a faint murderous killer air about him. There also was a domineering majestic and noble aura that emanated from him. Everyone seemed to steer clear of him unconsciously.

However, his aura didn't scare her at all. In her past life, while studying in America, she met an American guy named Nickolas, who had an aura similar to the cold faced young man. Later after becoming good friends, she found out he was apart of the American Special Force. He was also the one who first taught her Krav Maga and got her interested in the study of many martial disciplines. He had a terrifying aura, and it took her a long time to become comfortable around a person with that kind of aura. Now it was no big deal to her.

Liu Tián Qǔ grinned in amusement at him because although the expression on his face remained cold and never changed. She knew she caught him off guard. With his level of martial arts, she already knew just how rare of a feat that was, "Big brother, I noticed in the time that I've been talking to my new friend. You have been eavesdropping, and you've never moved. Are you volunteering to help me walk my new friend home? We are recruiting people to help get him home safely."

Liu Tián Qǔ had focused on the cold-eyed cold faced young man. So she failed to see Little Dumpling's reaction to the cold-eyed cold faced young man. It wasn't until she heard Little Dumpling say "Older Brother" with what sounded like a slight whimper in his voice did she turn around to look at him. Little Dumpling was looking at the cold-eyed cold faced young man with an 'OMG! I'm in so much trouble' look on his face.
