Appeasing a child is nothing a lollipop can't fix.
If one doesn't work, then give them two!
Qingqing stopped crying, her long lashes still clinging to a glistening teardrop. She nibbled on her tender fingers and asked with a sob, "…is this for me?"
"Call me 'sister', and it's yours," Ming Ge said, waving the lollipop with a tone as tempting as a big bad wolf.
"Pretty sister!"
"Here you go."
The cameraperson naturally captured this scene on camera.
The vivid girl against the thin golden sunlight, in front of the Statue of Athena by the fountain, stretched out her delicate fingertips to offer a piece of candy to the crying little girl. With the comic-book-like background, it was as lovely as an ancient Greek mythological painting of a wishing young girl.

[No, this scene is breathtakingly beautiful. Help me up; I can lick the screen a hundred more times!]
[Ming Ge has quite the knack for soothing children; she could even go on "My Precious Baby"!]
