Na'er Sister is so cute, so I'll take her!

Inside the elevator, looking at the little girl with silver hair before him, Chen Zhou already knew her name, yet he asked out of curiosity:

"What is your name?"

"My name is... my name is Na'er... and you? What is your name?"

The young girl's voice carried a hint of softness. Her beautiful eyes gazed at Chen Zhou, filled with curiosity.

"My name is Chen Zhou. You can call me Brother Chen, or just Brother, from now on."

"Looking at your pitiful state, you must be an orphan. Just stick with Brother from now on; I'll look after you."

As Chen Zhou spoke, his other hand patted Na'er on the head.

Na'er's gaze remained fixed on Chen Zhou, feeling his chubby little hand patting her head.

She didn't feel the disgust she had faced when dealing with those other men; instead, it turned into a sense of warmth.

This left the young girl with a trace of confusion in her eyes, but she still gave a soft, "Oh."

As the elevator ascended, Chen Zhou felt refreshed and in high spirits.

He hadn't asked for this "Brother" title for Na'er's sake, but for Gu Yue's.

Three years later, when Gu Yue's memories returned, the two of them would at least be able to maintain a sibling bond, much like how things were with Tang Wulin.

Even if Gu Yue and Na'er end up liking Tang Wulin later, with this "Brother" title, they shouldn't be able to kill me, right?

Chen Zhou muttered to himself. Just then, the elevator doors opened, and he stepped out, carrying Na'er.

Su Xin was standing at the entrance with a smile, but seeing Chen Zhou carrying a little girl in one hand, she was momentarily stunned.

"Young Master Chen Zhou, who is this?"

Su Xin paused as she spoke. Looking at the girl's innocent and adorable eyes, her heart instantly melted.

What a cute little girl. How can she be this cute?!

Su Xin's tone carried a hint of disbelief. Hearing such words from someone usually so gentle and composed amused Chen Zhou.

"Sister Su Xin, if you like her, feel free to hold her. Alright, take the little girl to get cleaned up. She should also have innate full soul power, so we'll get her a soul ring later."

Chen Zhou said, pushing Na'er forward.

At this moment, his height was limited—how tall could a six-year-old be?

Plus, he was carrying a little girl who weighed about as much as he did in one hand.

Seeing Chen Zhou struggling slightly to hand the girl over, Su Xin froze for a second before taking Na'er into her arms.

She didn't mind the dirt on Na'er staining her clothes, nor did she mind the unpleasant smell.

Su Xin held the adorable little girl with pity, then nodded respectfully toward Chen Zhou.

"Very well, Young Master. I will take this young lady down to wash up now."

As Su Xin spoke, she turned and left. Chen Zhou swaggered back to his room and collapsed onto his incredibly soft bed.

Chen Zhou raised his hand slightly, and a small, deep-blue snake appeared. As Chen Zhou flicked a potato chip into the air, the little snake suddenly opened its mouth to catch it and swallowed it down.

"You're a strange one. Why can you eat snacks? Aren't you a soul spirit? Aren't you in an illusory state?"

Chen Zhou asked the little deep-blue snake in front of him, but the little guy clearly couldn't answer; it just blinked its cute eyes at him.

Chen Zhou didn't hold back, though; he reached out and flicked it on the head.

Seeing the anger and grievance on the little snake's face, Chen Zhou burst into laughter.

"From now on, you'll take my surname. My name is Chen Zhou, so you'll be Chen She. How does the name Chen She sound?"

Chen Zhou looked at the deep-blue snake. He thought the name sounded incredibly tacky and expected the snake to object, but the little snake just blinked its curious eyes at him.

"No, why are you so silly too? Chen She really doesn't sound great. Then you can be Chen Lengjing. Lengjing sounds a bit better. From now on, when I say 'Lengjing,' you attack immediately."

Chen Zhou smiled as he spoke. The little blue snake didn't understand his meaning at all, but seeing its master smile, it coiled its body in a circle.

Over half an hour later, Chen Zhou yawned and walked out of his room.

As soon as he stepped out, he saw a delicate, porcelain-like little girl standing at the entrance.

By now, the dirt on the girl's face had been washed away, revealing skin as fair as porcelain.

The tangled mess of silver hair had also been gently combed smooth.

There was a rare hint of baby fat on the girl's face, but it only made her look cuter without being a burden.

Seeing this exquisite little girl, the female staff members who usually worked on the top floor had all gathered around her.

The girl had been standing there, looking at these aunts with a sense of bewilderment, but the moment Chen Zhou walked out, her eyes lit up instantly.

The moment she saw Chen Zhou, she ran toward him.

Seeing the beautiful girl rushing over, Chen Zhou didn't refuse and took two steps forward himself.

Na'er reached his side and threw herself into Chen Zhou's arms.

"Bro-ther, hello." The little girl's voice carried a hint of softness.

Chen Zhou said, "Hello, hello," while patting the young girl on the head.

Chen Zhou did not possess much strength, but the surrounding female employees all frowned as they watched him.

However, seeing Chen Zhou's demeanor, they found it difficult to intervene.

Na'er, on the other hand, did not care at all; instead, she slowly buried her head into Chen Zhou's chest.

Feeling the little girl's trust, Chen Zhou instinctively stopped moving, and within a few seconds, he heard the sound of the little girl's breathing.

Watching the little girl curled up in his arms, falling into a deep sleep in less than two seconds, a helpless smile appeared on Chen Zhou's face.

"Sigh, it's really too good for that brat Tang Wulin. Just thinking about how the aloof Gu Yue and the adorable Na'er will both be his in the future makes me furious."

There was a hint of jealousy in Chen Zhou's tone. As he spoke, he paused, looking at the girl currently lying in his arms, and fell into a brief silence.

"But the problem now is, if Na'er doesn't meet Tang Wulin, it seems she won't fall for him."

"And if Na'er doesn't like Tang Wulin, it's even less likely for Gu Yue to have feelings for him. In that case, is it possible for me to snatch them both away?"

As Chen Zhou spoke, he shifted the girl in his arms, lost in thought.

Su Xin stepped forward, gently reaching out to take Na'er and pulling her into her own embrace.

"Young Master Chen Zhou, let's arrange for her to stay in the room next to yours. This little girl lacks a sense of security; she only feels better when she sees you."

Su Xin spoke with great sincerity, and Chen Zhou glanced at her, nodding slightly.

These words were naturally not entirely true, but since she was brought back by Chen Zhou, the best approach was for Chen Zhou to adopt her; after all, this little girl possessed innate full soul power.

Only by staying with Chen Zhou could she enjoy better treatment, have a better chance of becoming strong in the future, and attain a higher status.
