"Xiao Hong?" "I'm Here."
The girl standing at the door was wearing a school uniform and had long, slightly wavy, wine-red hair.
This was the first time Lin Luo had seen her face.
The girl was so beautiful that even Lin Luo, who was often with Qian Renxue, was stunned for a second or two.
The students in the class all remained silent in perfect unison.
She was already in the classroom on the first day of school, but everyone acted as if they were seeing her for the first time.
Hong Chen stepped through the door, then paused, as everyone was staring at her.
She didn't say anything, but walked straight towards Lin Luo, took out a mask from her bag, and handed it to Lin Luo: "This is Mom..."
She suddenly stumbled over her words, then continued, "... the mask that fell off the carriage, here you go."
Lin Luo took it and recognized it as Qian Renxue's mask that had been blown to the ground by the wind.
Upon contacting him, he asked in surprise, "I heard you chased my carriage yesterday, was it to give us masks?"
Hong Chen smiled and said, "Yes!"
Not entirely. She wanted to see where Lin Luo and Qian Renxue were living now, but unfortunately the carriage was going too fast, and she couldn't catch up in the end.
But she also realized that Lin Luo and Qian Renxue were now living inside a very, very high city wall.
Lin Luo glanced at her shoes and felt a pang of guilt, remembering that the girl had run barefoot yesterday.
"Thanks," he said with a smile. "I'll treat you to lunch at the cafeteria."
The meal served was naturally from Window Number One; the girl was probably not from a noble family and wouldn't be able to afford Window Number One's food.
"OK!"
Hong Chen was very happy and jumped up and down a couple of times.
Lin Luo nodded, then turned around and found that all the boys were blushing, with Yu Luoyi's face turning as red as a monkey's bottom.
Even a single expression or gesture from Hong Chen could make these boys his age blush with embarrassment.
"They're here now, so ask them whatever you want. You don't need to ask me anymore."
Lin Luo patted him on the shoulder.
Hong Chen then looked at Yu Luoyi, leaning his head closer. "What do you want to ask me?"
Oh my god, it's too close, I can't breathe...
"I... you... him..."
Yu Luoyi, like a mute, stretched out his hand and pointed randomly at the air, seemingly having suddenly lost the ability to speak.
His heart was pounding; he'd never been this flustered even when he was with Xue Fu.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Hong Chen found it strange, pouted her little mouth, and walked towards the seat in front.
Lin Luo looked back and saw that Hong Chen was sitting in the corner of the last row, completely blocked by the heads of the people in front of him.
"Young Master Luo!"
As soon as Lin Luo turned around, he saw Yu Luoyi rush over. He leaned on Lin Luo's table, holding Lin Luo's hand affectionately, and said, "Young Master Luo, please treat me to dinner! I want you to treat me to a meal today!"
Lin Luo: "A meal at Window Number One? Xue Fu can treat you too."
He turned to look at Xue Fu sitting next to him.
Xue Fu nodded. "I can have it."
Yu Luoyi stared at her blankly for a few seconds, then turned and grabbed Lin Luo's hand again. "No, you have to pay!"
Lin Luo: "Go back to class, it's time to start."
Yu Luoyi: "Okay."
Qin Hanyu walked in at this moment, waved to everyone and said, "Entrance test, assemble downstairs."
She's very aloof, at least that's how students who haven't been taught by her perceive her.
All first-grade students went downstairs.
Inside the testing hall, Lin Luo was suddenly patted on the back.
"Lin Luo."
Hong Chen called out to him, and came over with paper and pen. She asked, "Can you teach me to write my name?"
Lin Luo was somewhat surprised. "You can't write? How old are you this year?"
Hong Chen tilted his head, and Lin Luo was even more surprised. At his age, did he still need to think about this?
Could it be that you, like me, suddenly grew up?
Hong Chen remembered. "Grandpa, the clan chief, said I was 12 years old."
The moment he opened his mouth, he was referring to the clan leader; there was no doubt he was related to Xiong Chumo.
Lin Luo turned his head and his lips twitched. Xiong Chumo was still eating breakfast against the wall. He didn't care about this relative of his at all.
Lin Luo: "Do you know Xiong Chumo?"
Hong Chen nodded and said with a smile, "I know you, but I feel closer to you, so I want to ask you about many things I don't understand."
That hit the nail on the head. Lin Luo wasn't trying to flirt with her, but he still responded, "I also find you approachable. By the way, have we met before?"
Hong Chen subconsciously wanted to nod, but a woman's threat flashed through his mind.
She shook her head, slightly disappointed. "No."
The entrance exam had almost nothing to do with the Heaven Dou Royal Second Team, so Lin Luo pulled Hong Chen to a corner.
The two sat on the ground, Lin Luo picked up a pen and carefully wrote the two characters "Hong Chen" on the paper.
Are these the two?
Hong Chen didn't mind the dirt on the ground. She lay down, propped her chin on her hands, and stared at the white paper. She immediately nodded happily, "It seems so, it's really well written!"
For a moment, Lin Luo was in a daze.
The scene felt incredibly familiar.
Just like when I used to paint in front of the easel in the Worship Hall...
It just seemed that no one stayed by his side to praise his drawing.
Even Qian Renxue has something to do.
wrong.
A little fox will be nearby, holding the paint palette on its head and watching him paint intently.
Lin Luo stared blankly at Hong Chen's gently swaying head and the two snow-white legs that were raised behind him.
She was stretching out her hand, tracing Lin Luo's handwriting with her finger, as if she were carefully learning her own name.
"Red... Minister."
Hong Chen repeated it over and over again.
She's really strange. She doesn't remember her age, can't write her own name, and what is her Martial Soul?
Hong Chen will definitely participate in the test later, and Lin Luo is curious about the type of her Martial Soul.
Just then, someone suddenly tapped me on the back.
Lin Luo turned around and saw Yu Luoyi, Xue Qian, and Xue Fu watching him from a distance.
Behind them lay a tree branch that Yu Luoyi had thrown at them.
Yu Luoyi looked anxious and mouthed: What are you two up to again?!
Lin Luo ignored him.
Yu Luoyi can't stand the sight of pretty girls.
He picked up the branch behind him and tossed it aside casually.
But the next moment, something happened that shocked Lin Luo immensely.
Hong Chen turned her head to look at the thrown branch, and almost instinctively, she let out a "whoosh" and pounced on it, biting it accurately with her mouth.
After she finished, she took the branch in her hand and put it back next to Lin Luo.
Then he continued to lie next to the white paper and traced the two characters "Hong Chen" with his finger.
Lin Luo was stunned.
Yu Luoyi and his two companions, who were watching from a distance, were also dumbfounded.
Hong Chen seemed oblivious to the astonishing move he had just made.
Lin Luo stared at her blankly, then, as if possessed, called out, "Xiao Hong?"
"I am here."
Hearing the sound, Hong Chen, who was lying on the ground, raised his head and blinked his big eyes at Lin Luo.
