Choice 5

"Alright, alright, I won't move.

Ban Xia, be a good girl and talk to Auntie Police, okay? Mommy won't hit you. Tomorrow, Mommy will take you to KFC, and then we'll go to the park. Mommy will also sleep with you tonight, okay?" The person didn't move, but her mouth was certainly not idle.

Children, you know, just coax them a little, and how could the child not listen to her mother? As long as Ban Xia listened to her, then Gu Fa Dian, who jumped in to meddle, was just a dog catching a mouse.

He was just meddling in other people's business.

Officer Zhao also reached out: "Sweetie, come to Auntie. Auntie has something to ask you, okay?" There were many people watching.

The little girl's eyes looked blankly at Qin Xiu, instinctively shrinking back.

Her gaze then fell on Officer Zhao. This was a police officer, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, and the little girl was also afraid.

Suddenly, a light appeared in the little girl's pupils. She took a deep breath and stepped down one stair.

Among the crowd, someone exclaimed in shock: "This child has so many bandages on her!" Having just been bandaged at the clinic, the child was wrapped in bandages, and her shirt was too loose, so it was easy to see.

The little girl stepped down another stair. Qin Xiu thought the little girl was coming to her, and her heart was filled with joy, wanting to hug her. Unexpectedly, the child suddenly stepped down two more stairs, bypassing her.

After all, she was a child, and the stairs were too high. Officer Zhao thought the little girl wanted to come to her and, fearing she would fall, quickly reached out to catch her.

But the child, whose actions looked slow but were very nimble, dodged her, then plunged straight down.

Officer Zhao gasped: There were more stairs. Wouldn't the little girl just fall down like that? Of course, although Ban Xia plunged straight down, she didn't fall.

Because her brother was right at the bottom of the stairs, and she plunged towards him. He seemed to have a telepathic connection with her and immediately reached out to catch her.

Plunging into her brother's embrace, Ban Xia finally felt safe.

She clutched her brother's clothes, crying inaudibly: "Brother, take me away, I don't want to go home!" The tiny girl spoke each word distinctly: "Brother, I know how to cook and wash dishes. Can I be your helper?" Such a sudden turn of events stunned Qin Xiu, and Officer Zhao was also stunned.

Even the onlookers were stunned.

Gu Fa Dian, a good-for-nothing with poor grades, who liked to fight, whose father didn't raise him, and whose mother didn't care for him.

Why did Ban Xia trust him so much? But the most shocked was still Gu Fa Dian.

This matter, if spoken broadly, was abuse; if spoken narrowly, it was just an adult hitting a child.

When his mother left, he understood one thing: adults' thinking did not include respect for children, nor for children's freedom.
