Little Taotie heard the crying, pressed her lips together, wanting to comfort her, but didn't know how to do it.
Little Taotie listened to her crying, until she was exhausted and fell asleep. Only then did Little Taotie close her eyes and fall asleep too.
Early the next morning, the two boys were also taken away by the local police.
Only the little girl remained without anyone coming to find her, and her mood grew more and more downcast.
Little Taotie lowered her eyes and made a decision.
She came to the little girl and said seriously, "If no one comes to find you, come home with me. I'll adopt you."
Hua Jinyan frowned.
Lu Yuan hesitated to speak.
"You... adopt me?" the little girl whispered. "But raising me costs a lot of money."
Little Taotie patted her chest, "I can earn money and take care of you."
The little girl looked up, her eyes sparkling, but soon dimmed again. "But... I'm a Broom Star."
Little Taotie was stunned.
She used to hear those three words often.
