Volume 1 Chapter 11 A Witch Can Also Suffer (2/2)
The flame of anger within Han Sheng Ming still scorched. ”You really don't have eyes. Luilui and mommy always bullies little Luo luo. You're also bullying her! You're no different from Luilui.”
Mo Yuan's eyes twitched. He refused to be compared to someone as despicable as Han Luilui. He scowled at Han Sheng Ming.
”All right, all right! Cut it out, you two!” Tang Yujin butted in. ”You are scaring the little girl.” He took Han Luo's hand and softly suggested, ”Let me read you some storybooks. I'm sure you'll like it!” A gentle aura radiated around him.
Han Luo smiled brightly again. ”Okay!”
Han Sheng Ming found a place to sit. He sat there and took his own storybook. He wanted to read for a long time.
Tang Yujin took a book and had begun reading it to Han Luo. It was a fairytale. The story was about a prince who went into a dark forest and followed a witch, where he saw a tall tower. There was a princess of another kingdom locked up in the tower. She had unusually long hair blonde hair which would shine whenever she sang. The witch used the princess' long hair to climb the tower. But one night, the prince mimicked the witch's voice and used the princess' hair to climb. The locked up princess saw the prince and fell in love with him. In the end, they ran away together. The prince and the princess got married and lived happily ever after.
”But but” Han Luo tugged Tang Yujin's yellow sleeve.
He asked her while smiling, ”Hmm? What is it?”
”The witch? What happened the witch?”
Tang Yujin realized that he shouldn't let Han Luo know that the prince fought against the witch and killed her; it wouldn't be good for an innocent girl to hear about that. The shrewd boy responded, ”She looked for the princess but could never find her.”
Han Luo cried out, ”Poor witch!”
Tang Yujin was stunned. He didn't think that she would think this way. ”Why do you feel bad for the witch, little Luo?”
”Witch is lonely lonely like Luo” Han Luo looked down. Her eyes slightly teared up.
Tang Yujin was muted in shock. He didn't know what to say, starting to regret reading the book to her.
Han Sheng Ming jumped out of his seat and strode towards Han Luo like a gale. He suddenly hugged her tightly. ”Little Luo Luo isn't lonely. She has big brother Ming, big brother Yujin and my daddy.”
”B-but you not mommy daddy” Han Luo knew that, despite their love, the people around her were not her mommy nor her daddy. Her uncle said that mommy and daddy would never come back. Little Luo had to visit them, yet even when she asked her auntie to let her see her mommy and daddy, Du Liu did not approve.
