Volume 1 Chapter 12 Swimming Is Fun (2/2)

Tang Yujin whispered to Han Sheng Ming, ”See? Didn't I tell you that Mr. Hui wouldn't get mad? He likes children.”

Han Sheng Ming's jaw dropped. ”But this is the first time I've ever seen him with children.”

”'Cause children are afraid of him, most of the time!”

Han Sheng Ming was surprised. ”Really? But we aren't afraid of him. And look little Luo Luo isn't either.”

Tang Yujin giggled. ”That's 'cause we're very strange!”

Han Sheng Ming couldn't agree more. ”It seems so” But he then realized that Tang Yujin was indirectly saying that his little cousin was also strange. He shook his head and denied strongly, ”No! Little Luo Luo can't be strange. She is an angel!”

”Uh” Tang Yujin sighed at his friend. He helplessly shook his head. 'I'm worried about her future boyfriend,' he thought.

Mo Yuan was looking at his instructor and Han Luo. He was used to seeing little children run away from Mr. Hui, calling him ”Monster!” while crying in terror. However, this little girl did the opposite. His sharp eyes observed her small face, looking for any trace of fear or fright. But he found nothing. She was genuinely happy being hugged by Mr. Hui. Mo Yuan's gaze softened. 'She is different from the other kids.'

[A/N: And what are you? You 4 years old brat!]

Mr. Hui's tender warmth reminded Han Luo of her own father, who always called her ”daddy's little treasure.” She mumbled softly, ”Daddy”

The instructor was stunned. He looked at her, noting that a doleful expression grew on her face. Yet, when Han Luo saw him looking at her, she gave him a wide grin. Mr. Hui asked Han Sheng Ming, ”Is this your cousin?”

Han Sheng Ming exclaimed, ”She is! How did you guess, Mr. Hui?”

Mr. Hui coughed unnaturally, feeling a bit shy. ”She is much cuter than you.”

Han Sheng Ming boasted, ”Of course, she is. She is my cute little Luo Luo!” He would never lose a chance to praise his cousin.

'My?' Mr. Hui chuckled at Han Sheng Ming's proudness. He then turned to Han Luo. ”Luo, do you want to play in the water?”

Han Luo nodded eagerly. ”Water! Water! Play! Play!”

'She really is so cute and adorable!' Mr. Hui covered his face. He abruptly gave a side glance to his three students who were observing him. He cleared his throat and declared, ”All right boys, let's start with a backstroke today.”

Han Sheng Ming was disappointed. ”Aww! But I like sidestroke!”

Mr. Hui firmly responded, ”You can't master that technique yet. I'll teach you sidestroke when you are six years old. Now go into your positions.” As the instructor finished his commanding, he sat down on a chair with Han Luo seated on his lap.
