Liu Ming was a little bewildered.
What was happening before his eyes?
Why was everyone being so nice to Xiao Lingyin?
Also, Jiro, that cup of oolong tea in your hand looks suspicious, put it down immediately, she's still a child.
"I told them about Xiao Lingyin," Chisa came over to Liu Ming.
Seeing Liu Ming's strange gaze, she immediately let out a soft hmph, "Don't think you're the only one who cares about her."
Liu Ming was stunned for a moment, just about to tease her, but Chisa ran off.
What was this situation? She shouldn't be shy, right?
It was hard to imagine, Chisa being shy.
Liu Ming slowly walked towards Xiao Lingyin, preparing to check on the situation.
They were suddenly so enthusiastic, Liu Ming was genuinely worried they might scare Xiao Lingyin.
However, he was stopped midway.
Liu Ming lowered his head, looking at Xiao Hina, who was standing in front of him with her arms outstretched, and asked curiously, "Xiao Hina, what are you doing? Do you want to play with me?"
Xiao Hina shook her head and said in her unique childish voice, "Sister Kong told me to stop Uncle here, not to let Uncle pass."
"Why are you stopping Uncle?" Liu Ming continued to ask.
Xiao Hina tilted her little head, then shook it, "I don't know."
Liu Ming was speechless; she didn't know but still insisted on stopping him.
He looked at Xiao Hina's serious little face, and didn't intend to force his way through.
In his impression, Sora was much more reliable than Miyu.
Since she told Xiao Hina to do this, there must be something she didn't want him to know.
In that case, he simply wouldn't go over.
But Xiao Hina, this little adorable creature, dared to stop him, and that was unforgivable.
Among The Takanashi Sisters, he doted on Xiao Hina the most.
Now this little fellow had actually rebelled.
Liu Ming reached out his hands to her armpits and lifted her high.
But Xiao Hina wasn't scared at all; instead, she happily cheered.
"Xiao Hina, spread your arms, we're flying."
It wasn't Xiao Hina's first time playing like this; she obediently spread her arms and straightened her body.
Liu Ming held her arms, his head against her stomach, and ran around the house.
Xiao Hina let out a burst of joyful laughter.
On the other side.
Sora, Miyu, and Xiao Lingyin were on the observation deck behind the shop.
"Suzune, what do you think of my Uncle?" Sora's tone was a little nervous.
"Who is your Uncle?" Xiao Lingyin looked at Sora in confusion.
"It's Xiao Ming, the handsome man who just brought you here," Miyu explained.
"Oh, you mean Xiao Ming? He's very nice! He not only made delicious food for me but also treated me to a drink!" Xiao Lingyin smiled brightly.
"Then would you be willing to live with him?"
"Live together?" Xiao Lingyin's heart trembled slightly.
"Yes, it's very happy living with Xiao Ming," Miyu said cheerfully.
"Suzune, I can see that Uncle really likes you, and you probably don't dislike him either. Why don't you come with us? Uncle would definitely be willing to take care of you."
Seeing that Xiao Lingyin seemed a bit at a loss, Sora changed the subject. She began to talk about the situation of her three sisters.
Only then did Xiao Lingyin realize that the two people in front of her had also lost their parents, just like her.
However, they were clearly much luckier than her, having a very good Uncle.
And she was only left with a small eatery.
During lunch.
Liu Ming noticed that Xiao Lingyin seemed a bit distracted and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
He wouldn't suspect Sora of doing anything excessive to Xiao Lingyin; after all, didn't he know Sora's personality?
But in that case, he became even more puzzled.
What was going on with Xiao Lingyin now?
She was very different from when they arrived.
"Xiao Lingyin, are you feeling unwell?" Liu Ming finally asked.
"I... I'm fine," Xiao Lingyin looked at Liu Ming, then lowered her head to eat her meal.
Liu Ming couldn't help but look at Sora.
Sora met Liu Ming's gaze, then immediately lowered her head.
Liu Ming raised an eyebrow. Could it be that Sora was really bothering Xiao Lingyin?
Impossible, Sora wasn't that kind of girl.
He looked at Miyu, who didn't shy away, but what did that look in her eyes mean? He couldn't understand it at all.
After lunch, Xiao Lingyin actually left directly.
