"Oh, right, daughter, look, this is your acceptance letter to a top high school!" Keke's mom, having finished washing the dishes with Keke's dad, smiled and took out a carefully designed-looking acceptance letter from the drawer.
"Huh?!" Keke, who was wiping the table, was stunned for a moment, then blankly accepted the admission notice.
"Don't just hold it like that, take a look," Dad urged from the side.
Keke nodded blankly, then opened the acceptance letter.
The sign clearly read, "Congratulations to Han Keru on becoming a student at the Shangjing No. 1 Key High School!"
"Hey?! Why are you crying, child?" Keke's mother, sitting next to her, noticed large tears streaming down Keke's face.
He quickly reached out and tenderly wiped it off for her.
"No, no, Mom, I'm just so happy." Keke wiped away her tears, smiled, and shook her head.
"Oh dear, the child is just excited, it's normal for her to shed a few tears. What do you want, Keke? Dad will buy it for you, you've really brought honor to our family!"
Keke's dad said to Keke with a hearty expression.
Keke shook her head, "No need, I'm already very happy to have been accepted!"
Keke looked at the acceptance letter in her hand and smiled brightly.
"Oh no, that won't do! Our precious daughter has brought honor to our family, we absolutely have to celebrate!"
"Okay, I'll go buy some good food and then cook you a big meal tonight!" Without Keke to say anything, she happily went out to buy groceries.
"Oh dear, your dad, he's always like this." Keke's mom sighed with a smile.
Then he took a stack of colored paper and scissors from a cabinet and placed them on the table.
"Mom, what is this...?" Keke, somewhat confused.
"You silly child, are you so happy about getting your acceptance letter that you've gone crazy? Don't you love having Mom fold origami cranes with you the most? Today, Mom will fold as many as you want with you!"
Keke's mom gently patted Keke's thigh, then picked up a piece of colored paper and started folding it.
Keke then realized what was happening and picked up a piece of colored paper and folded it.
After folding one, it looked at the exquisite origami crane in its hand, and at its mother's origami crane, which looked a little rough.
A warm feeling welled up inside me.
Just as she was about to continue folding, her body was suddenly shaken violently.
Keke's smiling face froze for a moment, then she turned to look.
Hela, expressionless, was shaking her head wildly with her arms hanging limply over her shoulders.
"Heh, Hela, stop shaking..." Keke, shaking her head.
Hearing this, Hela also stopped.
" Hela, what brings you here..." Keke scratched her slightly dizzy head and spoke slowly.
"Are you awake?" After a long pause, Hela finally managed to speak.
"Huh, what does that mean?" Keke blinked, a little confused.
"Hey, Keke, is this your friend?" Keke's mother, who was folding origami cranes, stopped what she was doing and looked at Hela to ask.
"Ah, this is my classmate from recruit training camp..." Keke stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.
"New recruit training camp...?" She frowned, rubbed her head, and looked like she had a headache.
"Oh dear, Keke, what's wrong? Does your head hurt?" Keke's mother rushed over and touched Keke's forehead with concern.
"No, no, it's nothing, Mom, thank you!" Keke shook her head, her expression relaxing again.
"Oh, right, Hela, this is my mom. She's a very nice person. Can we say hello to it?" Keke looked at Hela and pointed to her mother.
Hela blinked her big eyes, looked at the big tree Keke was pointing to, and fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong? Sister Hela, don't you like my mother?" Keke Hela standing still, she timidly asked.
Hela thought for a moment, then walked to the big tree and gave it a symbolic hug twice.
Seeing this, Keke smiled in relief.
"Oh, by the way, Hela, I'm folding origami cranes right now, want to join me?" He then handed a leaf to Hela.
Hela took the leaf in a daze, and then saw Keke start folding leaves on her own.
"What you're seeing is fake." Seeing that Keke had already folded a leaf into the shape of a paper crane, Hela finally couldn't help but speak up.
Keke's hands didn't stop; she continued folding origami cranes.
"I know." Keke still had a smile on her face.
Hela: ⚆_⚆?
She slowly opened her mouth, just about to say something, Keke suddenly turned her head to Hela, her eyes filled with tears.
"Even if it's fake, let me spend more time with my family. I haven't felt warmth in so long..."
Seeing this, Hela was at a loss for what to do.
Seeing that Hela stopped talking, Keke took it as tacit consent and continued folding origami cranes.
Just then, Hela slowly raised her elbow and aimed it at the back of Keke's neck.
Just as Hela was about to knock him unconscious with an elbow strike.
Keke's body suddenly twitched, and then she looked at the leaf in her hand with a blank expression.
Then he smiled with relief.
"Thank you, Hela..." She had just turned her head, ready to thank Hela, when she saw Hela's elbow frozen in mid-air, and couldn't help but freeze.
Hela, however, remained calm and collected, withdrawing her hand without batting an eye.
"You're awake," Hela asked again.
Keke realized what was happening and nodded somewhat awkwardly.
"Yeah, I'm awake. Um... I'm sorry to have troubled Hela earlier." Keke scratched her face, still feeling shaken.
But then she looked at the leaves beside her that she had folded into origami cranes and sighed softly.
A tear slowly rolled down her cheek from the corner of her eye.
"I give up! If I'd known you were such an unreliable idiot, I wouldn't have stayed with you!"
Ye Ciqing followed Wang Canxin as they ran wildly across the lawn, pursued by a group of seemingly delirious new recruits.
Please trust me one more time. Just stay with me!
Wang Canxin turned to look at Ye Ciqing, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.
Ye Ciqing looked at his determined gaze with a strange expression, then glanced at the several new recruits behind him who looked like zombies.
He nodded with a long face. "If anything else happens, I'll hang you from a tree and beat you."
Wang Canxin nodded and thanked him, saying, "Thank you for your trust."
"Ugh--" Ye Ciqing looked disgusted.
"By the way, could you give me a weapon? Preferably a throwable weapon that can be concealed."
"What use would a weapon be to someone with such skinny arms and legs like you?"
Despite saying that, Ye Ciqing still used his ability to conjure a throwing knife in his hand and tossed it to Wang Canxin.
"Thank you." Wang Canxin nodded, then suddenly stopped.
He made a cut in the tree next to him, severing a rope tied to it.
Then, a large net made of vines suddenly rose up.
They netted all the new recruits who were chasing them and hung them high in the tree.
