A quiet, panicked voice came from the Girls' Restroom.
Little He Qing pressed the flush button and looked at her wet sleeve. In her hurry to do that, she had accidentally splashed some on it.
She hurried to the sink, wanting to wash it clean with water.
But the bell for the end of class happened to ring just then. A little boy passed by the sink and saw her washing her cuff while sniffing it. After staring blankly for a moment, he asked curiously, "What are you doing? Don't tell me you just peed on your wrist?!"
Little He Qing blushed after being caught, lowered her head without saying a word, and washed even faster.
The boy suddenly laughed, looking rather cocky, and even shouted loudly, "Come look, everyone, come look! This girl peed on her clothes! She's washing her clothes!"
His shout drew many children over to watch.
He Qing was so frightened that she burst into tears, her eyes blurred with them, not daring to look back.
Lin Zhengran, who was in the classroom, also heard the shouting.
And the system's voice appeared at the same time.
You had only just parted from Fairy He when you heard the sounds of fighting coming from the distance. It seemed the fairy was being bullied by villains. If you saved the fairy, she would likely thank you with a treasure, but not saving her was also a choice. After all, cultivation is perilous, and all things require careful consideration.
Lin Zhengran walked out of the classroom and saw that it was He Qing being surrounded by the crowd, hiding there and wiping her tears in grievance.
Without the slightest hesitation, he walked over and squeezed into the center of the crowd. "Who shouted just now?! Are you sick? Come out!"
The moment everyone saw it was Lin Zhengran, none of them dared to speak.
Because a Certain Person was famously awful in kindergarten. He never played with any of the other children, did not like paying attention to people, and always spoke fiercely, so everyone was very afraid of him.
However, because he was handsome, quite a few little girls also secretly thought he had personality.
Now that he had shouted like this, no one dared say a word.
Little He Qing wiped her tears in grievance, standing there and staring at Lin Zhengran.
Lin Zhengran walked up to her. "Why are you crying? If someone talks about you, don't you know how to talk back?! All you know is how to cry?!"
Little He Qing had a weak personality, did not like talking, and was even worse at arguing with others. On ordinary days, quite a number of kids liked using her as a joke and bullying her.
Because of that, as her Childhood Sweetheart who occasionally came to his house for meals, Lin Zhengran would still stand up for her from time to time.
"Wuu-wuu~"
"Stop crying! If you keep crying, I won't care about you anymore!"
Little He Qing stopped crying and stood there sniffling, her eyes wet and red.
Lin Zhengran asked, "Who bullied you? Point them out to me yourself."
Little He Qing lowered her head and said nothing.
Lin Zhengran tugged at her cheek with a face full of exasperation.
"Are you going to tell me or not?!"
In truth, it did not hurt when he tugged, but Little He Qing still whimpered pitifully until she looked toward that person.
Lin Zhengran looked back and saw that the little boy was trembling, his face pale.
Lin Zhengran's eyes went wide. "So it was you who bullied He Qing?! I told you to come out just now, so why didn't you come out?! Come on, I'm dragging you to the teacher right now. If the teacher doesn't deal with it, then the two of us can go outside and fight!"
As he spoke, he walked toward the boy, but before he could finish, the boy also burst into tears and said quietly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to."
Lin Zhengran grabbed his clothes. Children were still easy to scare.
"Who can hear you when you shout that quietly?! Weren't you shouting really loud just now?! Say it again! Say, 'He Qing, I'm sorry!'"
"I'm sorry! He Qing, I'm sorry! I hope you'll forgive me!" Seeing Lin Zhengran looking so terrifying, the little boy was so frightened that he wailed loudly.
Only after Lin Zhengran saw that the intimidation had worked did he leave the crowd without looking back.
Little He Qing looked at Lin Zhengran's back, her face flushed red from crying, and hurriedly followed him. Only, as she trailed after him, she heard the voices of the people around them.
She heard the girls who had been watching talking among themselves. "Lin Zhengran is so cool." "Yeah, he's got so much personality."
Little He Qing pressed her lips together and followed closely behind Lin Zhengran.
You chose to save the fairy. The fairy is extremely grateful to you, and after the battle just now, the fairy saw that your skills were extraordinary. In her heart, she even developed the thought of wandering this dangerous world with you. To you, whether you wander alone in the future or travel with a companion is a very important choice.
Choose? Choose my ass. How is five-year-old me supposed to wander the world? Do I not have to come to class tomorrow or something!
The next two classes were recreation time. The students of Class Three were all playing in the kindergarten courtyard.
Lin Zhengran sat beside the slide. Little He Qing stood beside him with her head lowered, neither speaking nor daring to sit, nor leaving, as if she had made a mistake.
Lin Zhengran was helpless.
In his previous life, he had not exactly been a very fierce person either, but unfortunately He Qing's personality was too stupidly adorable. Even when bullied, she did not know how to fight back, and she could not squeeze out a word for ages, making it truly difficult for anyone to speak to her gently.
"Why are you standing in front of me? You're blocking my sun."
Little He Qing oh'd and hurried two steps to the side.
Lin Zhengran said, "Standing beside me blocks the breeze."
"Huh?" Little He Qing panicked. "Then-then where should I stand..."
"Don't you know how to sit down?!"
"Keke, other than the spot next to you, everywhere else is dirt."
"Then sit on the dirt."
"Okay." He Qing really was about to sit down.
"Okay, my foot! Sit next to me!"
Little He Qing jumped in fright, but seeing that he had agreed, she carefully sat down beside Lin Zhengran.
Her little legs pressed together and her small hands folded in her lap, she wrestled with herself for a while before timidly saying, "Th-th-thank you for saving me just now. How should I repay you?"
"Do you have any more snacks?"
Little He Qing shook her head like a rattle. "I really don't have any on me, but I still have some candy at home, in my bedroom."
Little He Qing used her hands to show the size of the box. It was about the size of two little hands. "About this much, filled all the way up. Several thousand pieces."
Lin Zhengran thought, She really has no idea how numbers work. A Storage Box, huh?!
"You'll give them all to me?"
Little He Qing nodded like a chick pecking at rice. "Okay, I'll give them all to you. Do you want anything else?"
The Fairy's reward was extremely generous. She actually promised to give you an entire box of Sect Pills, and from her tone, it seemed she also had an incredibly important treasure. Do you plan to take it for yourself, or let it go for now?
Hearing the system prompt, Lin Zhengran asked curiously, "What else do you have?"
Little He Qing said rather reluctantly, "I also have a big piece of chocolate at home. Dad bought it for me on my birthday. I usually keep it carefully under my wardrobe and can't bear to eat it."
Seeing her expression, Lin Zhengran asked He Qing if he could take a look at it. Little He Qing nodded.
And she promised she could bring it for Lin Zhengran to see tonight.
Before long, the kindergarten dismissal bell rang, and Beautiful Teacher organized the children of Class 3 of Senior Kindergarten into lines as they walked out through the School Gate one after another.
"Everyone, don't run around! Line up properly and you'll be able to go home right away!"
Lin Zhengran stood at the back of the line, looking at Dad and Mom waving at him from outside the School Gate.
After transmigrating for a month, Lin Zhengran already had a basic understanding of his new life.
Dad was named Lin Kai, nicknamed Lin Yingjun. He had a steady appearance, was a civil servant in the small town, was quite well liked, and had a lot of say at home.
Mom, Lin Xiaoli, worked at a Nail Salon. Her personality was a little like a Naive Sweet Girl, and her salary was higher than Dad's. Dad's nickname had been given by Mom after she watched a cartoon.
The family did not have much in savings, but all three of them were in great health and ate with hearty appetites. The year before last, they had even bought a hundred-thousand-yuan little car for getting around.
Though this was the result of a failed transmigration.
Lin Zhengran had only one thought... the curse of Certain Point Orphanage was finally broken!
With this perfect family, plus him exploiting system bugs in the future, wasn't a happy life waving wildly at him?
