She freed one hand, intending to comfort the little girl by patting her head, but to her surprise, the girl burst out crying loudly: "Mommy! Waaa…"
With a leg injury, Kang Li had to move slowly until she finally reached the hardwood sofa. She placed all the shopping bags on the coffee table, then hugged the little girl into her arms: "There, there, no more crying. Tell mommy what happened that made you end up like this?"
The little girl was too busy crying to speak.
Seeing this, Kang Li looked toward the entrance of the living room, where Ming Rui and Hanhan were standing against the wall. Her anger surged but she managed to suppress it and called out softly to the boys: "Ruirui, Hanhan, come here."
The two hesitated for a while before moving their little legs over to Kang Li.
"Which one of you will tell me what happened?" Ruirui had a bruise on his face and Hanhan had scraped his knee. Their clothes, like Vivi's, were covered in mud, and they both had dirt-smudged faces.
