Tang Xiaonan jumped. 'Holy crap,' she thought. 'Did I act so cute that this big shot can't bear to part with me?'
She couldn't help but feel a little smug. 'As expected of someone practically raised on a diet of pure cuteness, I'm universally adored. No one, young or old, male or female, can escape my cuteness attack.'
Although her material life would surely ascend to Everest-like heights with the Madman, and her future prospects might be even better, Tang Xiaonan was still unwilling. She loved the Thorne family, loved Phoebe Huxley and her husband, and she loved her three older brothers, as well as her grandpa, grandma, second uncle, and youngest uncle. She'd even grown attached to Millstone Peak and didn't want to leave.
So—
"I have a mommy and a daddy, and they're very, very good."
Tang Xiaonan looked up at the Madman very seriously.
"Can your parents buy you Coke? Pretty clothes?" the Madman asked pointedly.
Tang Xiaonan shook her head. "No."
