My Beloved Model

"Uncle!" Han Luo ran to him and hugged him tightly. "Uncle, is this my house?"

"Yes, this is your birthday present." Han Changhong didn't mention that he lost two-thirds of his fortune to buy this house. Han Luo never usually asked for anything, so he decided to give this house to her.

Han Luo couldn't stay still. "Uncle, thank you so much. I like it very much! It's like my house in China." 

Han Changhong was satisfied with her reaction. He bought this house because it looked similar to what Han Ying Wei bought before his wedding in China. Han Ying Wei and his wife Qin Zheng chose that house for themselves. The moment Han Changhong saw the house, he knew he had to buy it. "Luo'er, you must be tired after the long journey. Come inside."

'Large' and 'spacious' are understatements – the house was truly vast. The floor was covered in an off-white carpet. It was so thick that their feet sank in it. The walls were decorated with oil paintings and the chandeliers were hanging on the ceiling. They were greeted by three women. Han Changhong introduced them. "Luo'er, this is the chef, Sophia. She will cook you whatever you want to eat whether it is Chinese or English." He pointed at the other two ladies. "They are the maids, Poppy and Eva. They will take care of the house and take care of you."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Han Luo. Please take care of me from now on." Han Luo bowed.

"Oh my! What a lovely lady!" Sophia was a forty two year old lady with an average look. She was 5'7, with blonde hair and brown eyes. She heard Han Luo's perfect British accent and covered her cheeks. "Miss Han, please don't forget to tell me what you want to eat. I can cook you anything as long as we have the ingredients and recipe."

"I'm glad to know." Han Luo's face brightened up.

"Miss Han, I hope we will get along," Poppy spoke cheerfully. She was a twenty four year old tall lady with light brown hair and sky blue eyes.

"Me too." Han Luo offered her a sweet smile.

"Miss is like a Chinese doll. So beautiful!" Poppy couldn't control her mouth due to excitement.

Another maid next to her was standing still. Her name was Eva. She was twenty eight years old. She had a tall slender body, dirty blonde hair, and emerald eyes. "It's a pleasure to work under you, Miss Han. I will take good care of you. Please take care of me as well."

"I will do my best," replied Han Luo politely.

Han Changhong looked around for someone and then said, "I'm not seeing the other member. Where is he? Did he go out to run an errand?"

Sophia shook her head helplessly. "No sir, you know how shy he is. He ran to his room and locked the door."

"Hello everyone, please take care of me." Noah stepped forward and shook his hand with the three ladies. He gave them his lady-killer smile.

"Likewise!" The cook and maids were friendly. The girl named Poppy blushed seeing him up close.

Han Changhong told Noah, "You will be in charge of the house until Luo'er turns sixteen. In the meantime, you will teach her how to manage this household. Since it's her house, she has to manage. After that, Luo'er can take care of it."

"All right." Noah slightly nodded. He couldn't take orders from Han Changhong because his employee was Ma Rui. He would have to ask her permission to do the work.

Han Changhong suggested, "Luo'er, let's go upstairs. I'll show you your room first."

"Okay, uncle!" Han Luo replied. When they went upstairs, she noticed that no one was around them. "Uncle, I don't need anyone else but Noah to take care of me."

Han Changhong was stunned. "How could that be? You need a lady to take care of you. You are a girl. When you grow up a man cannot help you with certain things."

"But uncle when I grow up, why do I need someone to take care of me?" Han Luo asked out of curiosity.

Han Changhong sighed. "I cannot tell you about certain things… as a man. You will find out soon enough. You are growing up, after all."

Han Luo pondered and then suddenly exclaimed, "Oh I know! I can ask mom."

"Yes, definitely you can. Whenever you are curious about something you can ask your mom." Han Changhong stroke her head affectionately.

Then he took her to the master bedroom. It looked like it was a Disney princess' room. It was wide and spacious. It was perfect for a little girl like her as the whole room was dyed in pink. On the right side, there was a queen-size bed. The bed cover had a Hello Kitty print on it, matching the pillow cover. Right beside the window was a space where she could sit to look outside the window and play with her dolls. If she wanted, she could see the sunrise since the window was situated on the east. She gasped when she saw the left side of the bed. There was a large dollhouse and it was larger than the one that was at Han Sheng Ming's cabin in China.

That wasn't the end of it. On the left side of the room, there was a huge washroom only for her and a large walk-in closet. She had never seen such a spacious closet and it had numerous dresses, shoes, accessories, jewelry, and other things. These were the things from the Mo Mansion that Ma Rui bought whenever she went to the shopping mall with her little cute girl. Han Luo still had her bags to unpack. Yet, her dresses from the Han Mansion were too shabby, and she didn't know where to keep her things.
