"You You, Nuo Nuo, I'm here for your birthday party!"
Asai Reina greeted the two little birthday stars of the day with a smile.
She wanted to hold hands with Fang You, but Xia Nuo took her hand first.
"Thank you, Ling Nai, for gracing us with your presence today. Welcome, welcome!"
Xia Nuo said as she reached out a hand to Asai Reina, her fingers spread wide, "Where's your gift money? Why didn't you give it to me?"
Asai Reina's face turned red with anger, and she sputtered at Xia Nuo, "You... you're not getting married, what do you need gift money for!"
"What's gift money?"
Xia Nuo cocked her head, expressing confusion, but seeing Ling Nai angry seemed to make her very happy.
She eyed Asai Reina's purple princess dress, then praised her:
"Ling Nai, you look so pretty today!"
"Well, of course I do..." Asai Reina thought Xia Nuo had good taste.
"Just like the Black Rose Fairy in 'Jasmine Fairy'." Xia Nuo said.
"This is Princess Violet's dress from 'Princess Violet', not that villainess fairy!"
Asai Reina stomped her feet in anger, "I knew it, you're all uncultured, having never even watched 'Princess Violet'!"
'Princess Violet' is the latest new-generation princess currently airing on Tianqiong Satellite TV, and you can only watch it on our paid TV channel. It's nowhere to be found online, and it's much more noble than the 'Jasmine Fairy' that everyone watches!
Kids who haven't watched 'Princess Violet' can only lead relatively failed lives!
"But it really does look like the Black Rose Fairy..."
Xia Nuo pursed her lips, "I haven't watched 'Princess Violet', but I think this dress is just as cool as the Black Rose Fairy's!"
"I also think it looks like the Black Rose Fairy," Luo Xianyu nodded, "It really is cool."
"It's the Black Rose Fairy, the Black Rose Fairy, Gulina's dark energy, where is your black magic wand?"
A kid circled around Asai Reina, teasing her.
It was apparent that the kids didn't actually dislike the Black Rose Fairy; on the contrary, they all thought she was cool.
But since Asai Reina saw the Black Rose Fairy as the main villain, she felt mocked by everyone and became very upset.
Damn it, everyone's taste is so lousy!
Is 'Jasmine Fairy' the only cartoon you all talk about?
Isn't there anyone who watches 'Princess Violet' like me, anyone with taste like mine?
Asai Reina, totally losing it!
Ahhhhhh!
And going crazy along with Ling Nai was Fang You, standing next to her!
Seeing Xia Nuo infuriate Ling Nai to no end almost brought Fang You to tears with jealousy!
Because Ling Nai was always getting angry only at Nuo Nuo, the Emotional Energy could only be poured onto her, without a single system message appearing in Fang You's head.
All that Emotional Energy, all that pure Emotional Energy, completely wasted.
Don't take your emotions out on Nuo Nuo!
It would be so much better to vent them on me, let it all out on me!
And Asai Reina, who had dressed up carefully, beaming with excitement, not only was she not recognized as Princess Violet, but she was called the disliked, wicked Black Rose Fairy by everyone.
You You's hand was not held, nor did You You speak with me alone.
I didn't manage to rescue You You from Nuo Nuo's evil clutches.
Wuu...
The frustration of being misunderstood by the kids;
The sadness of not being valued by friends;
The unwillingness to have failed to defeat the big villain;
Asai Reina suddenly covered her face and burst into a storm of tears!
Cry, cry, cry!
The typically assertive Asai Reina suddenly burst into tears, causing some of the kids to start feeling flustered.
While they were not the instigators, it did look like everyone was making fun of Asai Reina together.
"Ling Nai, don't cry, nobody meant that you don't look good."
"Ling Nai, I'm sorry..."
Asai Reina cried even harder.
I'm crying.
I'm faking!
Asai Reina was peeking through the gaps in her fingers, observing everyone's reactions.
Clearly, everyone felt guilty and flustered for making Ling Nai cry, clutching at their clothes with guilty, panicked expressions.
Humph humph humph humph!
Ling Nai's crying campaign, super successful!
However, when Ling Nai's gaze swept toward Xia Nuo, she locked eyes with her.
The normally composed Xia Nuo suddenly started smiling with her lips pursed.
She began walking cheerfully in her direction!
...
!!!
Asai Reina, sweating bullets!
If this continues, Ling Nai will be mocked by Nuo Nuo again, just like last time...
She lowered her head, searching for the whereabouts of Fang You.
If she could just cry in You You's arms, then Ling Nai wouldn't be at a loss.
However, just then, from behind everyone, a loud shout rang out, drawing everyone's gaze.
"Stop!"
The last kid to come into view was the tardy Wang Zihan.
He styled his hair like a grown-up with a slicked-back look and wore a sharp little suit, dressed rather formally.
Under the gaze of the other kids, Wang Zihan leaped onto a chair in one go.
His tiny fists were clenched tight as he adopted a stern and righteous stance.
Heroes always appear at the last moment!
I'm not too late!
Wang Zihan pointed at Fang You and shouted, "You You, are you picking on Ling Nai again!"
[Your bullying of Asai Reina has caused Wang Zihan's sense of justice to explode. Emotional Energy +15]
...
!!!
Here it comes, here it comes!
Zi Han, do you know how hard it's been for me waiting for you!
Fang You saw the dancing Emotional Energy and his mouth twisted into a lopsided grin.
Of course, he knew that this innate sycophant wouldn't let him down.
But what he hadn't expected was that Wang Zihan, at such a tender age, could provide such a brimming and copious supply of Emotional Energy.
My Zi Han, so terrifyingly powerful!
More, little Fang You wanted even more!
"Zi Han, you've misunderstood, we weren't bullying Ling Nai,"
Xia Nuo explained to Wang Zihan, "Just now, we were complimenting Ling Nai on how cool her dress looks today! We're really good friends, see..."
Xia Nuo gave Asai Reina a hug and then cheerfully pulled down the hands covering her face.
"We're friends, right?"
Nuo Nuo is too strong...
Although Asai Reina was crying fiercely, she hadn't shed many tears, not as red-eyed as the wailing Luo Xianyu earlier.
But now, Asai Reina was truly aggrieved!
Originally, Asai Reina was still upset about Wang Zihan spoiling her plans, disrupting her great operation.
But then, Fang You also took hold of Asai Reina's hands and said seriously to Wang Zihan:
"That's right, we're good friends with Ling Nai, why would we ever bully her?"
You You held my hand!
Asai Reina was ecstatic, continuously rubbing up against Fang You, wanting to stick close to him.
Wang Zihan was shocked at this sight; his tiny fists clenched, and he ground his teeth incessantly.
[Wang Zihan's envy is deafening, +20 Emotional Energy]
"Ling, Ling Nai... is that true? No one's really bullying you?"
Asai Reina rubbed her eyes.
"It's Ling Nai's fault," she said.
"It's Ling Nai's birthday, and I've been crying at the birthday party. I was immature, I'm sorry everyone."
"It's okay, it's okay, realizing your mistake and correcting it is what good kids do."
Xia Nuo patted Asai Reina's little head as if to say she forgave her.
...
Ling Nai suddenly felt indignant, but she was unable to throw a tantrum.
!!!
However, Asai Reina's words reminded Luo Xianyu, who was standing to the side.
Today was Nuo Nuo's happy birthday, and there I was, throwing a tantrum.
Uhh...
Whimper...
Luo Xianyu's unimpressive little mouth began to quiver uncontrollably, nearly bursting into tears.
At this moment, several parents noticed the commotion among the children and quickly came over to check.
Chen Xuan inquired, "You're not fighting, are you? Kids should get along."
"No, Mommy."
Fang You maintained a serene expression, "We're having a lot of fun."
"Yeah, so much fun!" Xia Nuo chimed in as well.
Then, Zi Han's mom softly reprimanded Wang Zihan: "Zi Han, what are you doing standing so high up? That's not polite. Mommy didn't teach you that!"
"It's because..."
Wang Zihan felt a little aggrieved.
But as long as Ling Nai wasn't bullied, my heart has no regrets.
Then Lin Yi joined in, discussing with Chen Xuan before calling Fang You and Xia Nuo over:
"You You, Nuo Nuo, come here, the birthday party is about to start. Go and change your clothes, get ready and spruce up."
"Okay!"
Fang You and Xia Nuo went with their moms to dress up and get ready.
Asai Reina happily rubbed the hand You You held just a moment ago.
Wang Zihan now edged closer to Asai Reina, rubbing his hands together.
He lingered around her for a while, and then smilingly said to Ling Nai:
"Ling Nai, you... you look so beautiful today!"
"Hmph, of course I do."
Today, Asai Reina didn't find Wang Zihan as annoying.
Although he disrupted her plans, he also helped her hold hands with You You.
Having started a conversation with Ling Nai, Wang Zihan was over the moon.
Yes!
Wang Zihan really liked Ling Nai.
To what extent?
His study schedule was heavy, and in his scarce hour of entertainment each day, he could forego his beloved "Juju Stick" to watch the cartoons that Ling Nai liked.
So, of course, I know the role Ling Nai is playing right now!
Wang Zihan touched his nose and then said with a smile, "Even the wicked Black Rose Fairy, when worn by Ling Nai, looks just as pretty as a princess, an obvious hero at a glance."
Hearing this, Asai Reina's cheeks instantly turned red.
Seeing the changes on Ling Nai's face, Wang Zihan's eyes lit up with pride, utterly delighted.
Ling Nai looks so happy!
She certainly didn't expect that I could recognize the character she was impersonating.
Although I am a boy, I have so much in common with Ling Nai...
Ling Nai must be thrilled to death—
Ow, ow, ow!
Asai Reina stomped hard on Wang Zihan's foot and then walked away huffing.
...
Wang Zihan stood dumbfounded for a while.
Then he found a seat, his hands trembling as he picked up a glass of orange juice.
He drained the orange juice in one gulp.
Even after finishing the orange juice, Wang Zihan lingered on the sweet aftertaste in the glass, unwilling to put it down for a long time.
Just then, the corners of his mouth curved upward uncontrollably.
The way Ling Nai blushes explosively is so adorable!
