Karina waited until she was by her side before continuing, "You are going to Class 5. There are a total of thirteen students in this class, including you, and they are all of a gentle and quiet nature."
Knock, knock…
As Karina and Ruan Shu were introducing her to the situation of the class she was about to join, their homeroom teacher arrived.
"Let me introduce you." "This is your future homeroom teacher, Miss Lu Lu."
A girl with a delicate appearance and a seemingly gentle personality entered.
"Hello, Ruan Shu, my dear."
Lu Lu greeted Ruan Shu with a smile, but no one knew how excited she was at that moment.
Yesterday, when the principal approached them about adding a student, no one paid much attention, and there was resistance. Who wanted another mischievous child in the class? It would be maddening.
When the principal presented her information, all the homeroom teachers started competing for her attention.
Firstly, because of Ruan Shu's background. She was a noble, an idol to many!
Even herbivorous star beasts admire strong individuals. Who wouldn't want to know Ruan Shu? Having such a strong background in the class would be prestigious and reassuring.
The second reason is that in their spare time, who doesn't relax by browsing the internet? Many teachers had seen the viral videos of this child.
The video of her trying on clothes had been watched countless times.
As early childhood educators, they had been challenged by a variety of eccentric children, and their resilience was on the verge of collapsing under pressure.
Among the most perilous occupations in the Star Beast Empire are soldiers, mercenaries, doctors, and early childhood educators.
When they saw such a well-behaved and gentle little angel online, they felt that this child could completely cleanse their wounded souls.
And so, the homeroom teachers fought over her, and in the end, Lu Lu emerged victorious.
"Hello, Miss Lu Lu."
In Lu Lu's quick thoughts, she politely greeted the super soft and polite little cutie standing in front of her.
Her voice was so gentle, unlike those loud and quarrelsome children who always shouted at her!
Indeed, looking at this soft and squishy little rice ball, Lu Lu felt like she could breathe again!
Suppressing her excitement, Lu Lu bid farewell to the principal with a smile, and then escorted Ruan Shu and the little girl to Class 5.
Ruan Shu tightly held her father's finger. Her chubby little face looked very serious as she pursed her lips and remained silent.
At first glance, she seemed quiet and obedient, but upon closer inspection, her clear eyes revealed a lot of unease.
As they approached the classroom, she leaned closer against her father.
When they reached the classroom door, Ruan Shu couldn't even take another step forward. In a panic, she held onto her father's hand tightly, unwilling to let go. She lowered her head, tightly pursed her lips, and her eyes began to turn red.
Even though she had been optimistic when she arrived, thinking that she would be happy going to school with her father by her side, and that her father would come to pick her up after school.
Upon her arrival at the school and the classroom, her inner panic and anxiety suddenly emerged.
At that moment, Ruan Shu thought of her past life again.
From kindergarten onwards, whether it was at parent-teacher meetings or other activities that required parental involvement, she was always alone.
Gradually, adults and teachers started to feel sorry for her, and her classmates would always ask, "Ruan Shu, do you not have parents?"
Ruan Shu didn't know how to answer. She did have parents, but it seemed like she didn't.
They started teasing her, asking if her parents didn't want her.
They were just speaking the truth; her parents really didn't want her, but she still felt an indescribable sense of suffocation. As time passed, she grew increasingly quiet, less inclined to engage in conversation, and even started to resist going to school.
But no one cared about her opinion. Despite her parents' reluctance, she had to complete nine years of compulsory education.
Ruan Shu also appreciated the country's education system because, ultimately, her world was filled with studying and books.
She didn't know when she started growing out her long bangs to cover her eyes. She always kept her head down quietly in the corner, becoming the most inconspicuous and peculiar student in the eyes of her classmates and teachers.
Even though she was in the same classroom as many people, she always seemed to be in her own world, completely isolated from everyone.
She had almost forgotten the feeling of loneliness from her past life. When did this symptom start to ease?
It seemed to be from the moment Ruan Shu died in that world and opened her eyes in this new world.
Her soul and memories remained hers, yet she no longer felt as lonely.
Even though "Mom" still didn't like her, she had her cat.
From the moment she was born into this world, it felt as though a gentle, small stuffed cat had made a home in her heart.
Ruan Shu often felt ignored by her mother. However, when she was alone, she would let her tail and ears out, hugging her tail and touching her ears. Even when she was alone, she no longer felt lonely.
Later on, her heart not only had the cat, but also her caring father, her big brother who complained about her being a bother but was willing to hold her and buy her snacks, Qingran, the steward, and Xiao Mi...
She really cherished these people.
But she forgot that since coming to this world, she had only interacted with outsiders when she was alone or when her father and brothers were around. ###
It seemed that there was only one exception in the hospital's flower room: the young man with dazzling golden eyes.
But at that time, she was only facing one person, and now there were so many people, and she had to go to school.
Upon entering the classroom, a flood of memories surged within her, evoking a profound sense of loneliness from her past life.
"Shu Shu, Shu Shu..."
Her father's voice echoed in her ears, and Ruan Shu slowly looked up, her gaze somewhat blurry as she observed her father crouching in front of her, his eyes filled with concern.
Tears fell uncontrollably, landing on Ruan Xiao's arm, and he seemed to be scalded.
"Sorry, Dad, am I really so foolish?" "I'm so timid that I can't do anything right."
The small, soft, snow-white girl stood in front of her father with her nose and eyes red, and her glistening tears fell from her trembling eyelashes.
Her eyes were red as she smiled, her voice small as she apologized, choking up as she said she felt foolish and couldn't do anything right.
She didn't want to worry her father. She had resolved to be happy, but she felt foolish.
"Sorry, Dad, it's all Shu Shu's fault." Dad, please don't be angry. Please don't be mad at Shu Shu.
Ruan Shu tried hard to wipe away her tears and make herself smile, but she just couldn't seem to stop crying.
Her petite body was suddenly enveloped in a chilly, sweet-smelling hug.
Ruan Xiao held her tightly, with great strength, yet exceptionally gently.
"I won't be angry, Shu Shu, be good."
He said this very seriously, and with an unprecedented tenderness. If anyone familiar with him had seen this, they would probably marvel at how the ice had melted.
