I'll Take Care Of You

While they were eating, Zuo Qing kept putting food into her bowl, afraid that she would not be full. This little girl was too thin, and she was light when she carried her. She had to eat more.

When they left the restaurant, it was already dark outside.

Song An drove the car to the entrance and got out to open the door for Mu Ling.

Mu Ling, however, stood in front of the car, looking at a small shop across the street. She seemed to be curious.

Zuo Qing followed her line of sight. It was a small shop that sold ice cream.

"Do you want to eat it?"

"What's that?"

"Ice cream," Zuo Qing replied.

"Ice cream?" Mu Ling repeated. What was that? She had never heard of it.

Zuo Qing saw the curiosity in her eyes and patiently asked again, ""Do you want to eat it?"

"Can I?" Mu Ling's eyes lit up.

"Of course, I'll buy it for you if you want to eat it," Zuo Qing replied.

"Sure!" Mu Ling smiled. This old uncle has money, it would be a waste not to eat it! She also wanted to try the ice cream.

Zuo Qing naturally held her hand and crossed the road to the ice cream shop.

Song An looked at the back view of the two and felt very sweet. He took out his phone and secretly took a picture.

In the photo, master Qing was protecting Mu Ling as they crossed the road. The two of them were close together, like an intimate couple. It was very sweet. He saved the photo and turned back to the car. He was going to park the car across the street.

Zuo Qing held Mu Ling's hand and stood in the line to buy ice cream. The two of them immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them.

"Wow, look, he's a handsome guy!"

"That girl is so beautiful!"

No matter how quiet the discussion was, it still reached Mu Ling's ears. She wanted to pull her hand away, but Zuo Qing held her hand tightly, not giving her a chance to break free. He seemed to like the feeling of intimate contact.

"Hey uncle, let me go, " she said softly. "People will misunderstand."

Zuo Qing did not care about the misunderstanding at all. Moreover, in his heart, he hoped that it was not just a misunderstanding, but the truth.

However, his expression did not change. His thin lips opened slightly and he only spat out a word, "Ok."

Eh? No more?

Mu Ling didn't expect him to be addicted to holding her hand, and she couldn't get rid of it, so she could only compromise.

Finally, it was their turn. The salesgirl saw the pair with outstanding looks and asked nervously, ""W-what would you like to order?"

There was a menu on the counter, and there were many different types of ice cream, but Mu Ling had never tried it before, so he didn't know which one to choose.

"Which one is better?" she turned to Zuo Qing.

"Buy one of each flavor and try it!"

Mu Ling,"ah? That's too much, I can't finish it. " She just thought it was fresh and wanted to try it. She didn't want to waste it.

Zuo Qing didn't listen to her opinion and bought all the flavors according to his own idea. He felt that as long as the little girl wanted to try it, so what if he bought all of them? he could even buy all the ice cream in the entire city!

Song An had already parked the car by the ice cream shop. He saw master Qing carrying two bags of ice cream in one hand and holding miss mu's hand in the other as he walked over. He quickly got out of the car to open the door for the two elites.

The sky was getting dark, and the car drove through the city full of neon lights.

Mu Ling picked out a strawberry-flavored ice cream from the bag and took a small spoon to take a small bite. It's so cold, but so sweet! She didn't expect this thing to be ice.

"Delicious!" Mu Ling said, satisfied.

Zuo Qing's gaze was fixed on the little girl's face. Her little face looked sweeter and more delicious than ice cream.

"You've never eaten it before?"

Mu Ling shook her head. No. My family is very poor. I can't afford it.

Zuo Qing frowned. Was she that poor? He had done his research. Although the people on Jingyun Island were poor, they could still afford ice cream.

The little girl's mouth really couldn't be completely trusted ...

"I'll buy you anything you want to eat in the future!" He said solemnly.

Mu Ling's tongue felt cold, and the strawberry-flavored ice cream instantly melted and filled her mouth. "Uncle, are you going to take responsibility of me?" she asked, blinking her eyes.

A casual question caused the car to fall into an unprecedented silence.

Song An's hands on the steering wheel trembled. He did not expect Miss Mu to be so direct. He was not a gossiper, but now, his ears were perking up. He wanted to know how master Qing would answer.

Zuo Qing didn't expect her to ask this question, but it was fine. He wasn't a person who beat around the bush. He curled his lips and leaned down on the little girl. He said with a smile, ""Yeah, I'll take care of you forever!"
