Almost 20 years ago, when Little Ghost was reading quietly at the library, his stepmother came in and approached him.
Little Ghost was a little afraid of Mrs. Luo as she would always glare at him. In addition, everytime she spoke to him, her words were like swords.
However, on that day, she was smiling as she offered him a platter filled with assorted cookies.
Even though Little Ghost was suspicious of her change of behavior, he replied back with a smile.
Afraid to offend her, he took the platter and slowly ate them as she watched on.
"Guang Ying…" smiled Mrs. Luo as she gently patted Little Ghost's head.
When Little Ghost looked up at her, she asked, "Do you want to see your mother?"
Little Ghost stared at her before asking excitedly, "Really, Mrs. Luo? Do you know where my Mama is?"
He was too innocent to understand the threat he posed to his brother. Hence, he lowered his guard the moment Mrs. Luo treated him kindly.
