The moment Lin Huahua saw her father's face appear in the floating hologram again, her whole small body instantly became full of life, as if someone had poured a bucket of hope straight into her head.
Her brown eyes lit up instantly, and her pale little face brightened with obvious joy, while even her soft white rat ears stood up happily, making her look so excited that it was clear she had already started hoping with her whole heart.
In that second, Lin Huahua did not think of anything else at all, because the first thought that rushed into her mind was very simple.
Pa was here to take her back!
So before her father could even open his mouth, Lin Huahua had already jumped up from the bedding and threw her arms out dramatically toward the hologram, her voice full of joy and urgency as she cried, "Yes, yes, I am ready. Take me. Take me now!"
