Chapter 8 Mission 2
Bruce Wayne politely declined the Wilder School principal's invitation to lunch and finally got into the driver's seat.
He closed his eyes tiredly.
I went to bed early last night and I have to dress up to attend the banquet today. Even Batman would be tired of dealing with such an occasion.
Just as he was about to start the car, he suddenly heard the car door being knocked.
He stuck his head out and saw a little girl. It was the kid who was with Jason yesterday!
Bruce immediately put away his tired look and asked in a charming voice,
"Hello, little one, what can I do for you?"
Rong Huan originally wanted to find a reason to ask him to take her away, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her stomach started growling again.
Her face immediately turned red, and she was embarrassed when she heard him say,
"Aha, it seems you haven't eaten yet, so dear lady, would you like to have lunch with me?"
Rong Huan immediately raised her head, indicating that she was very willing.
I didn't expect it to be so smooth. Not only can I get a free meal, but I might even be adopted. Mission Pass√
Bruce got out of the car and opened the door for the child.
Rong Huan looked at his gentle eyes and thought to herself that having such a handsome guy in front of her was simply a temptation!
The two got out of the car in front of a high-end restaurant. Rong Huan looked at the restaurant with a membership-based sign and praised Brother Tan, the richest man, for his generosity.
Mr. Bruce Wayne is indeed a prominent figure in Gothenburg, and his random appearances always make headlines.
Soon a group of reporters gathered at the restaurant entrance, approaching the two with microphones raised like wolves smelling meat.
Before Rong Huan could react, she was picked up by a pair of big hands and held steadily in their arms.
She raised her head and stared at the man's knife-like chin.
"Sorry, did I scare you? These reporters are always crazy, I was afraid they would hurt you."
Rong Huan heard the man's apologetic tone and lowered her head without saying anything.
She seemed to have never been hugged like this before, it was completely different from both worlds.
She is an orphan who was abandoned as a child and is unwilling to come into contact with other families.
I have always lived alone, so it is easy for me to hug other children.
She can get it every day, but it is a luxury for her.
So when she leaned into Bruce's warm embrace, she didn't even know how to handle herself.
Bruce was quick to notice that something was wrong with the child's mood.
He put Rong Huan on the seat, picked up the menu and asked her what she wanted to eat.
Rong Huan has no dietary restrictions, so Bruce ordered the restaurant's signature dish.
The two did not talk while waiting, and Bruce was wondering why Rong Huan suddenly came to him.
And Rong Huan was still immersed in her own emotions.
The dishes were served quickly. Rong Huan hadn't eaten breakfast, so she lowered her head and ate in big mouthfuls.
This body was young and had difficulty using a knife and fork, but it ate without making any noise, except that the food on the plate dwindled rapidly.
It seems like every time I see this kid he’s not full, Bruce thought absentmindedly.
Rong Huan rejected his adoption yesterday. He thought she had family members taking care of her, but now it seems that is not the case.
Seeing that Rong Huan was almost full, Bruce asked tentatively,
"Do your parents go out to work?"
Rong Huan wiped her mouth, shook her head and said,
"I don't have a mom or a dad, and I live alone."
Bruce wanted to ask you, didn't you tell me last night that your dad asked you to go home early?
But if the little girl knew my identity, it would be terrible.
Thinking of this, his eyes unconsciously became scrutinizing. This child's origins were unknown.
Yesterday she seemed smart beyond her age, but based on the information he found, there was nothing suspicious about Rong Huan.
Rong Huan never expected that just one sentence would make Bruce label her as someone who is good at hiding.
She went from plan A to plan D in her mind. She was thinking about how to get Bruce to adopt her.
Rong Huan's brain cells were burning like crazy, and she finally decided to use the simplest and most brutal method - hitting a straight ball.
She squeezed out two crocodile tears and said
"Mr. Bruce, can you take me in? I eat very little." (p′︵‵.)
Eat less? Bruce looked at the empty plate in front of Rong Huan. He ordered two servings, but he hadn't eaten a single bite yet.
Rong Huan looked at Bruce's obviously disbelieving eyes, and she didn't want to do that either.
The food in this restaurant is so delicious. She was so hungry that she ate a little more without noticing (weak, helpless but able to eat)
