"How did you all get here?" Cheng Guodong was puzzled, as the Tao Family hadn't shown up in so long, he had thought they stopped coming because his sister had turned them down.
Tao Mo sighed painfully, "I had a cold and was afraid of passing it on to Little Taotie. Just as I got better, our whole family came together."
Cheng Guodong looked at his reddened nose, thinking: So it's not frozen red, it's red from the sniffles these past days.
Little Taotie quietly looked at Tao Mo's nose, then quietly turned to the tall man.
She remembered at the airport, the blue-eyed girl who reached out for her dad to hold her, and Dad did just that.
She wondered if she reached out for a hug, would she get picked up too?
Tao Tiancheng saw his little girl sneaking peeks at him and was overjoyed. Unable to contain his excitement, he took a few steps forward, squat down, and took out a handful of candy from his pocket, "These are all newly developed candies, made just the way you like them."
