Qiqi wanted to walk towards Fang Xun, but then noticed a little girl with white hair, about her height, standing beside him.
Qiqi froze for a moment, then immediately turned away.
Fang Xun found it strange and couldn't help but ask, "Qiqi, what's wrong?"
Qiqi spoke softly, "Qiqi... is afraid of scaring humans again..."
"That... wouldn't be good..."
"So... so Qiqi won't turn back..."
The little girl's tone was full of worry as she spoke, which made Fang Xun chuckle, but at the same time, Fang Xun also knew that Qiqi had just been hurt by humans, which was why she was acting like this.
Like Ningguang, Qiqi had a simple and honest personality.
Qiqi always prioritized others' feelings, even if she herself was wronged.
Such a kind little pitiful, how could Fang Xun bear to see her get hurt?
In response, Fang Xun said, "Qiqi, you don't need to worry about scaring humans anymore,"
"because I've already explained to everyone that you are a good zombie with a kind heart who won't harm humans."
"The villagers have accepted you now, and they even want to be friends with you."
Hearing this, Qiqi blinked her big, watery eyes.
"Everyone wants to be friends with Qiqi..."
"Is that true?"
At this moment, Ningguang, standing beside Fang Xun, spoke up, "It's true."
"Qiqi, my name is Ningguang. Please guide me in the future. Perhaps we could get along well as friends."
Ningguang felt that her experience was somewhat similar to Qiqi's.
Both girls were victims of fate, which was precisely why Ningguang wanted to be friends with Qiqi.
"Friends..."
Qiqi turned around, then nodded vigorously, "Qiqi... is willing to be Ningguang's friend."
Hearing Qiqi's answer, Fang Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Qiqi agreed, it meant she hadn't lost all hope in humans.
Everything could still be salvaged.
Fang Xun crouched down, stood beside Qiqi, and said softly, "Qiqi, the villagers know their previous actions hurt you, so they all want to apologize."
"Can you forgive them?"
The little girl blinked her big, watery eyes and said earnestly, "Qiqi... doesn't blame them..."
"They don't dislike Qiqi... Qiqi is happy..."
Hearing this answer, Fang Xun reached out and gently ruffled Qiqi's head, then said softly, "Let's go out now, leave the mountain forest,"
"You should see more of the world's scenery."
Qiqi murmured, "See scenery... Qiqi likes it..."
"I want... to see scenery with Fang Xun..."
Fang Xun couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this. He nodded, "Okay, I'll take Qiqi and Ningguang then,"
"The three of us will go see the scenery together."
Fang Xun specifically mentioned Ningguang, because he couldn't just focus on Qiqi and ignore the other little girl, Ningguang.
Fang Xun deeply understood the principle of treating everyone equally, maintaining balance for long-term development.
Chapter 37 The Little Girl's Kindness Was Not Unrewarded, She Was So Thoughtful
Soon, Qiqi followed Fang Xun and Ningguang out of the mountain forest and headed towards the village.
As they got closer to the village entrance, Qiqi subconsciously lowered her head, her hands constantly fidgeting with the hem of her clothes.
She looked a little nervous and uneasy.
This was because Qiqi was afraid her appearance would cause the villagers to panic again.
However, things weren't as bad as Qiqi had imagined.
On the contrary, not only did the villagers not deliberately avoid Qiqi, but they also greeted her proactively.
It was because everyone already knew about Little Qiqi's tragic past, and they also knew that Qiqi wouldn't hurt anyone and was a kind-hearted zombie.
So, they all tried their best to let Qiqi feel kindness and warmth.
"Qiqi, welcome to our village as a guest!"
"Qiqi, want to play marbles together?"
"Qiqi, you're so cute~"
Looking at the warm and hospitable villagers, Qiqi blinked her big pink eyes, then said softly, "Everyone... is very enthusiastic towards Qiqi..."
"Qiqi... likes it here..."
Qiqi felt her eyes welling up.
Completely different from her previous sadness and grief, Qiqi was filled with emotion this time.
Because the villagers no longer avoided or feared her, and they accepted her and were willing to be friends with her.
For Qiqi, who was afraid of loneliness and longed for friends, this was truly something to be happy about.
The little girl was inherently someone who was easily satisfied.
Even a little bit of warmth could make her feel happy.
Qiqi felt very happy now.
At the same time, some villagers who had made mistakes also stepped forward.
They scratched their heads and sheepishly said to Qiqi, "Qiqi, we all heard about you from the Immortal."
"We misunderstood you before, and we hope you can forgive us."
"That's right, the Immortal told us that Qiqi is a kind zombie. We feel very guilty and shouldn't have hurt Qiqi like that before."
One after another, people stepped forward to apologize to Qiqi.
The innocent and kind Qiqi forgave them all.
"Qiqi... doesn't blame everyone..."
"Qiqi likes it here..."
During this process, although Qiqi didn't know what an Immortal meant and felt it sounded somewhat familiar, she also knew that the Immortal the villagers were referring to was Fang Xun.
It was Fang Xun who had made the villagers resolve their misunderstanding of Qiqi, and made the villagers accept Qiqi.
Regarding this, Qiqi looked up at Fang Xun and said, word by word, with utmost seriousness, "Fang Xun... thank you..."
"Qiqi... wants to repay Fang Xun..."
The little girl was innocent and pure.
She felt that since Fang Xun had helped her, she had to repay him.
Looking at the adorable and naive Little Qiqi, Fang Xun couldn't help but chuckle. He ruffled her head and said softly, "Qiqi, I feel your intentions."
"However, I don't have anything for you to do right now."
"So, maybe next time."
Upon hearing this, Qiqi nodded obediently, "Okay..."
"When Fang Xun has something he wants done... tell Qiqi..."
"Qiqi... will go and complete it..."
Little Qiqi's voice was childlike, but her tone was firm.
However, as soon as Qiqi finished speaking, her complexion visibly turned ugly, extremely pale.
