4 Black Merchan (1/2)

Since then he was always playing with her when he has some free time, and after knowing that she stay with her uncle parent, he occasionally helps her family with his culinary skill. But look at it now. It seems like he overdid it. The ordinary and everyday inn become the foodie paradise, a lot of chef across the continent came here to experience the out of this world taste of his food. The seat during the gourmet week that will be open for one week every six months and the ticket of each place become the primary target of the overly rich foodie in every auction house.

”Wushang after you finish with your work. Come to play with me at the same place ok?” The girl asks him while shaking his body like a child that tried to ask for candy from an adult.

”Ok ok stop shaking me so hard. I don't have spirit root remember?”

”Ah! Oh… s.. sorry” Xiao Lan release him immediately after hearing his reminding.

Zhu Wushang sees her reaction, He smiles then, ruffles her hair.

”Don't worry little orchid. So I'll get to work first. Wait for me ok?”

He stops ruffling her hair then walk to the kitchen, leaving Xiao Lan to pout while touching her hair where Zhu Wushang touch.

”Hmph! always act like an adult even though you are two years younger than me!”

She put and rebuke him before walking back to her room on the second floor.

-----------------------

After she enters her room and saw the silhouette of a woman within made her speechless, an indescribable feeling surging within her heart, she doesn't know whether to angry or be happy.

”Mom…”

A lovely voluptuous lady in luxury cloth stands inside her room with a caring smile on her face. She is Tian Xue'er, the godmother of Xue Wushang and a biological mother of Xiao Lan.

”Lan'er come to mama.”

She lowered herself to the same height as her beloved daughter, reach out her hand and waiting for her daughter to come to her embrace.

”I'm sorry Lan'er for leaving you here for so long. The capital still dangerous and it's terrible for you if you need to coop up in the palace all day to protect yourself so…

”It's ok mom. Xiao Lan understands” She tries to be sensible and be more mature just like Zhu Wushang. But unlike him that can sense a human nature and force to be grown to protect himself, she's just a normal child.

Tian Xue'er knew that her child try to be sensible, and she has a complex feeling about it. She doesn't know whether to be happy or sympathy for her child. But it can't help, because the enemies of her and her husband are lurking in the capital, and she doesn't know when this issue can be resolved.

”Lan'er do you want mom to eat with you here?” She asks her child with a caring smile.

When Xiao Lan heard this, she has a wide innocent smile across her cute face and jumps to embrace her mother.

”Yeah!! She happily answers.

To Tian Xue'er, this is the thing that she can think of to stay with her child her before the coming of age ceremony when she reached 15 years old. At that time, she'll face with the ugly side of society and the dirty of human nature. Before that time comes. She wants to spoil her child as much as possible.
