806 So Am I Nice or Mean? (1/2)
”It can't be the Han family's, right?” Lu Man was wrong when she guessed the other families, so it was only down to the Han family.
”What 'Han family'? You speak as if we are outsiders. That's our own family.” Han Zhuoli's fingertip tapped her on the tip of her nose.
Lu Man opened up her set of small white teeth and bit his fingertip.
Of course, Han Zhuoli managed to escape. Facing this little woman in his arms who was baring her teeth, Han Zhuoli smiled. ”When did you learn how to bite people?”
Han Zhuoli suddenly stopped talking about the castle. ”Why aren't you even asking me what birthday present I bought for you?”
”Huh?” Lu Man said, dumbfounded. ”Isn't your present this birthday surprise you've planned for me?”
Han Zhuoli looked at her and felt speechless.
He sighed. How much did this little girl suffer in the past? She actually thought that planning a birthday surprise was enough to be considered as a birthday present and that he didn't have to prepare anything else.
Lu Man saw that he was feeling sadness and heartache and shook his arm. ”So what present did you prepare for me?”
Han Zhuoli looked at her softly. After a long time, he finally asked, ”Didn't you just ask me whose castle this is?”
Lu Man froze. She felt like her legs were floating in the air, that everything was unreal.
The music playing in the background was clearly something she was familiar with, and she was clearly in Han Zhuoli's arms, but it felt like there was something wrong with her hearing.
She even stretched her hand up and dug her ear a little.
From Han Zhuoli's words, could it be what she thought he meant?
Han Zhuoli didn't know whether to laugh or cry over her actions. He grabbed the hand that was digging her ear. ”Why are you so dumb and silly? Do you want to eat some tonic for your brain?”
Lu Man: ”…”
She wasn't dumb.
Han Zhuoli finally pulled Lu Man out of the corner. He dragged her straight across the dance hall and out of the castle.
He placed both his hands on her shoulders and made her look up to look at the castle in its entirety. ”This is my birthday present for you. Do you like it?”
