Volume 1 Chapter 36 Fossicking Together (2/2)

Mo Yuan looked straight at her eyes and nodded. ”Yes, nothing will happen to you. But you shouldn't touch the ground or soil anymore. Your injury will become dirty and it'll be more painful.”

”I-I understand.” Han Luo nodded.

Mo Yuan let her hand go and she sat on the ground. She was wearing a brown jumpsuit and black shoes that day. Her hair was tied into a bun on the top of her head. Her face was flushed and her forehead was all sweaty due to the heat. Her eyes were red and wet since she was about to cry. Her round chubby face looked worried. She looked very pitiful.

Mo Yuan observed her for a while and then went back to fossicking. Ma Rui came back and saw Han Luo sitting on the ground. She asked worriedly, ”Luo'er, are you tired? Do you want to go back and sleep?”

Before Han Luo could answer, Mo Yuan proclaimed, ”She cut her finger.”

Han Luo worriedly cried out, ”Mom, I'm bleeding will I die?”

”Oh my, let me see.” Han Luo showed her hand to her. Ma Rui took her hand and observed carefully. ”Oh, does it hurt?” Seeing that the little girl shook her head, she continued, ”I will apply some medicine and cover it with a band aid. Nothing will happen to my Luo'er.”

Han Luo finally smiled. After applying the medicine, Ma Rui covered the young girl's finger with a band aid.

Mo Yuan was alone in the field. He was silently digging when he saw Han Luo come over. ”Aren't you going to take rest?”

”No! Ah Luo wants to stay with big brother and look for gold. Is that okay?” Han Luo smiled at him. Her smile gleamed like the rays of the autumn sun.

Mo Yuan's heart softened as he replied in a composed manner, ”You're welcome to do whatever you want.” His voice was gentle. There was a small smile hanging on his lips.

Han Luo smiled more brightly and started playing with him. From the sidelines, Ma Rui's eyes were sparkling. 'Oh, my goodness! What did I just see? What did I just see! Is this really my son? He actually smiled! I can't believe this! Was my son always this handsome? He looked breathtaking when he smiled. My heart is pounding hard haha! What should I do?'

While she was occupied with her 'Kya! Kya!' moment, the two innocent children were fossicking without a care in the world.

*Kya! Kya! means exciting.
