"Silly girl, don't cry, don't cry, Mommy will protect you for your whole life!" Mrs. Xia said with a loving gaze, holding her soft and fragrant little body tightly.
She was her treasure, and she would risk her life to protect her for a lifetime.
"Big brother will protect sister for her whole life, too!"
"Second brother will as well!"
"Third brother too!"
"And fourth brother, fifth brother!"
All five brothers also ran over one after another.
"Alright!"
Xia Ningxing felt so moved she didn't know what to do.
From then on, they were her real family.
She would definitely repay them well.
Two days later.
Xia Ningxing could go to school.
Early in the morning, Xia Ningxing, with the little backpack made by Mrs. Xia, was escorted to school by her eldest brother.
"Big brother, I want to go with Lu, so you don't have to take me!" After speaking, she toddled off into the Lu Tingli household to continue making her presence felt, "Lu! I can go to school now; let's go together!"
"No," Lu Tingli replied coldly as always, like an untouchable snow lotus on an iceberg.
"Rejection invalid!" Xia Ningxing said in her sweet, milky voice, following close behind him like a persistent little tail, her face beaming with joy, chattering away without pause, "Do you know why I'm so happy to go to school?"
"What's it to me." Lu Tingli didn't care at all, his long legs moving swiftly.
Xia Ningxing, with her shorter stature, had to jog to keep up with him, out of breath but smiling with squinted eyes, "Because you are at school!"
"..."
Lu Tingli gave her a glance.
Once they arrived at school, they would have to go to their separate classes. Xia Ningxing, looking reluctant, waved her pale, tender little hand, "Lu, we have to part for a while, I will..." miss you.
Before she could finish her sentence, the young boy, as if impatient, walked away without looking back, looking cold and heartless.
He even left her with two words, "Annoying!"
"..."
The rest of Xia Ningxing's words stuck in her throat, leaving her standing there, looking foolish.
No wonder this guy remained single in the book for thirty years; it turns out he was single by strength!
Does he have to be so annoying to girls?
Xia Ningxing started school earlier; she is now eight years old and in the second grade.
What is taught in the second grade is nothing more than addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and pinyin.
For a straight-A student to learn these, it's simply... indescribable.
Xia Ningxing was sleepy and bored, feeling that it was uninteresting, so when the school bell rang at the end of the day, she quickly grabbed her backpack and ran to Lu Tingli's classroom to find him to go home with!
The second grade and the fourth grade finish school at the same time. Just as Xia Ningxing ran to his class, Lu Tingli had also already come out with his backpack.
"Lu! Let's go home together later!" Xia Ningxing ran to his side like a little rabbit, murmuring, "Otherwise, if a little kid like me runs into a bad person on the way home, what should I do?"
"So you think if there's a bad person, I can beat them?" Lu Tingli couldn't help but remark.
Ah, this...
Xia Ningxing looked at his body, not much bigger than hers, and suddenly found herself at a loss for words.
"Anyway, anyway, it's safer to go home together," Xia Ningxing scratched her head, forcefully coming up with a reason.
Lu Tingli shrugged his shoulders and did not refuse, but he added, "If I'm not mistaken, your brothers are probably waiting for you at the school gate right now."
Although he wasn't close to the neighboring Xia family, he was well aware of how much they treasured that little girl.
