Volume 1 Chapter 7 Practice Makes A Man Perfect (2/2)
Han Sheng Ming was in despair. Unhappiness was written all over his face. He put his hands on his small head and cried, ”Aww! That's too long! Little Luo Luo will grow up by then and she won't need me to feed her.”
”Practice big brother!” Han Luo's eyes were as clear as water when she gazed at him. She was her big brother's fountain of encouragement. She meant that if he practiced every day, he could eventually feed her. Little Luo had a very sincere face when she spoke, and her expression was so cute that even the waiter couldn't help but chuckle softly.
”Yes! Then I can feed you every day.” Han Sheng Ming's eyes sparkled. He awkwardly cut a piece of steak with great difficulties and tried to feed Han Luo, but his right hand was shaking in so much elation that, before it could touch little Han Luo's mouth, the piece of steak fell on her napkin.
”Ah!” Han Sheng Ming cried out in disappointment.
”See? I told you.” Han Changhong changed Han Luo's napkin. ”Sheng Ming, maybe you should feed your sister at home, all right?”
”I always feed little Luo Luo because mommy won't feed her.” Han Sheng Ming admitted. This was the truth; children never lie.
Han Changhong's expression fell as he gravely looked at his son. He asked in a serious tone, ”Is this true?”
Han Sheng Ming nodded vigorously. ”Yes, daddy. Mommy always said that we should let Luo Luo eat by herself so that she learns to take care of herself. I didn't listen to mommy and fed her. But Luilui complained to mommy. Mommy then told me that little Luo Luo has no family, so we should let her do everything by herself, so she isn't a burden on anyone.”
Han Changhong clenched his fists, feeling his chest heat up. He was horrified by what his son had told him. ”Nonsense! We are Luo'er's family too. Next time your mommy says something like that, tell her that.”
Han Sheng Ming proudly responded, ”All right, daddy. Sheng Ming is happy to have little Luo Luo as his sister. If I'm cute, my sister has to be cute. Luilui and Wanwan aren't cute at all. They look as ugly as mommy.” Han Sheng Ming blurted his inner thoughts out, but he didn't mean that his mother was physically ugly she was ugly inside when she badmouthed Han Luo.
Han Changhong gasped drily, slightly amused by his son's bold comment. ”Sheng Ming.”
Han Sheng Ming looked at his father. ”Yes, daddy.”
Han Changhong said, ”Don't call your mommy ugly in front of her. She might die of a heart attack.”
He knew how much his wife loved their one and only son. If Han Sheng Ming ever told Du Liu that she was ugly, her self-esteem would be so damaged that her pained heart would stop pounding.
