My Beloved

Chapter 61 - HAN LUO'S PREPARATION



Han Luilui quickly fled. Her face was pale in nervousness. When she was seven, she indeed poisoned Han Luo, thinking it would prevent her from going to school and take the exams. But Han Luo ended up in the hospital. Han Luilui was so scared at that time yet was blessed that no one found out about her wicked act. Her mother helped her a lot too.

She clenched her teeth and exclaimed, "That orphan! I should have killed her back then." Her volcanic anger had reached its peak.

Han Luo had finished packing her things – she didn't have many belongings in this house anyway. Her whole dollhouse was still in the cottage, but Butler Noah packed all her dolls since she didn't want to leave them. They were going to be taking the Mo Family's private plane, so they had nothing to worry about.

They got ready to go to the Mo Mansion. The Han Mansion didn't even give her a proper farewell; they acted as if nothing big was happening. They never viewed Han Luo as a member of the Han Family, no matter how good she was at everything. But Han Luo wasn't bothered by it – it was as if she already accepted this outcome. She also knew that Han Changhong wasn't a perfect father. He always compared Han Luilui and Han Wanwan with her, which wasn't the wisest of decisions. But she couldn't fully put the blame on her uncle when her cousins' personalities were rotten. They never even tried to improve themselves. All they thought about was wasting her uncle's money. Not only that, but they also bullied her for no reason too. It was normal for her uncle to support her out of pity. It was not easy to be a parent either.

Han Luo knew by the fact that after coming to this house, the family was divided. She didn't want that to happen, yet controlling the situation was out of her reach. When she started to understand those things, Han Sheng Ming already left the country. Without the mama tree to shade her, she grew up mentally quickly and learned more than enough in a short period. She even started feeling guilty for the family's division, wishing she could live on her own.

But no person could live on their own – especially a child. She didn't regret her decision to stay at the Han Mansion. Whether people liked it or not, it was her right and she wouldn't hesitate in expressing it.

When she had turned ten, Han Luo started taking business related lessons. After taking classes from Assistant Tong, who became the Acting Vice President of the Han Corporation, she was thinking seriously about becoming his disciple. She was good at mathematics, and he gave her advanced math to do, as she was getting better at it each day. And when she did, she got so much pressure that she was on the brink of escaping.

Whenever she felt that way, she went to visit her father. She heard that Han Ying Wei was the President who worked hard since he was a child and that he never ran away from his problems. Her uncle did run away, and now he couldn't become the President of the Han Corporation despite being the eldest. She realized that it wasn't easy to go to the top. So, she worked harder every day. She studied more and more yet most of the time, she couldn't understand the content. It was then she would ask Assistant Tong for help.

When Assistant Tong noticed that she worked so hard that she couldn't study for her school exam, he paused her lessons. He was afraid that she would take too much pressure to the point that she wouldn't like business anymore when she would grow up. From then on, he gave her fewer lessons. But Han Luo secretly read books and magazines. She realized that if she didn't go to a more developed country, she wouldn't improve like her three brothers. However, she didn't want to leave her father alone.

She had to ask her uncle.

At that time, Ma Rui also got permission to take Han Luo abroad. Han Changhong didn't wait any longer and took care of the rest.

After moving to the Mo Mansion, Assistant Tong came to meet her at night. Due to the work pressure, he seemed to age quickly.

"Moving to London so soon?" he asked Han Luo. "They'll love a hard worker like you there."

"I hope," Han Luo curtly responded.

"Remember my advice and your roots. People do things differently over there, but that doesn't mean you have to cut off the teachings of where you came from."

Han Luo nodded as he spoke. She respected him both as a teacher and an elder figure. It was almost as if she had an intrinsic connection to him, even though she wasn't aware of his role in saving her during that fateful accident.

Before leaving, Assistant Tong patted her head and uttered, "I know there will be people to take care of you, but you need to take care of yourself too. And don't trust people so easily. Everyone isn't as good as they seem."

Han Luo faintly smiled. "I know, I will take care of myself. Don't worry, uncle."

Assistant Tong nodded. "Have a safe journey."

Butler Noah was with her and they saw off Assistant Tong. Noah commented, "He certainly takes good care of you."

Han Luo agreed. "Yes… you're right. He says all the time that it's his duty, but I want to know why he is desperate to make me the head. I noticed that he gives big brother Ming less homework than he gives me. I asked uncle why and he replied, 'it's because your cousin is too dumb.' But I think it's because big brother Ming has too much pressure."

"Assistant Tong isn't wrong. Your cousins are all dumb," Noah gestured in agreement.

Han Luo protested, "But big brother Ming is good to me!" She didn't like it when someone badmouthed her loved ones.

"That's the only good quality he has.." Noah rebuked.
