This "familiar" address almost made Hao Ren panic and fall off the stand.
Turning around, he saw Zhao Yanzi standing behind him with a grinning face. Beside her was Xiaoling, whom he had met briefly outside Lingzhao Middle School last time.
"You... How did you come" Hao Ren looked at her in shock.
"I skipped class to come play," Zhao Yanzi said casually.
Hao Ren was speechless for a moment, and then scolded her, "Alright, so you skipped class. But why did you also persuade others to skip"
"Today's classes aren't important anyway. It doesn't matter," Zhao Yanzi said in an unapologetic manner.
Hao Ren didn't know what to do with her and how to deal with the situation for a moment.
"This is..." Xie Yujia gave Hao Ren a puzzled look.
"Oh, she's my...my sister," Hao Ren said with difficulty.
"Your little sister is really pretty." Xie Yujia sincerely complimented her.
"Big Sister you're also very beautiful," Zhao Yanzi deliberately replied.
As they looked at each other, Zhou Liren sitting above and playing cards nudged Zhao Jiayan, pointing to Hao Ren's location below.
"Oh my god, it's that little girl from last time. Ah Ren is in trouble!" Zhao Jiayan recognized Zhao Yanzi as the girl who came to wait for Hao Ren at Shanming Canteen on Saturday last week and said with a frown.
"Should we go over there" Zhou Liren put down his cards, worriedly asked.
Zhao Jiayan smacked Zhou Liren's forehead with a card, "Why bother! That little girl is so powerful. Can you deal with her!"
"Then what should we do" Zhou Liren looked at Zhao Jiayan blankly.
Zhao Jiayin glared at him, "Of course I'm here to play cards with ease! One pair of King!"
Over at Hao Ren's side, Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia stared at each other for two seconds without speaking.
Xie Yujia wasn't stupid; she sensed a hint of sourness from Zhao Yanzi calling her "big sister." Thus, she remained silent, staying by the side to observe the situation.
"Since I've come this far, do you still want to send me back" Zhao Yanzi glared at Hao Ren and asked.
"Then can I just let you skip class" Hao Ren retorted.
Zhao Yanzi pursed her lips. "Fine then, I'll go find Lu—"
Hao Ren quickly covered her mouth, "Alright, alright, I give in to you this time. You can stay and play for a bit, but return to school before noon."
Zhao Yanzi brushed Hao Ren's arm away and pulled Little Ling to sit down.
"Your sister seems quite difficult to manage," Xie Yujia leaned over to Hao Ren and whispered.
Hao Ren rubbed his temples, at a loss for words. Who would have thought that this little girl suddenly showed up, even skipping class to do so
"I'm thirsty; go buy me a drink. Oh, get Little Ling one too," Zhao Yanzi said after sitting down and turning to Hao Ren.
"Here's the money, buy it yourself!" Hao Ren replied irritably.
"How can I be familiar with your school What if I get lost" Zhao Yanzi argued back confidently.
"And how would you find your way here if you got lost"
"Isn't it easy to spot the big playground I asked about each class's location one by one!" Zhao Yanzi narrowed her eyes, slightly smugly saying this.
"She might have trouble finding the school store; just buy the drinks for her," Xie Yujia said.
So Hao Ren put aside his intention to argue with Zhao Yanzi and left the stand to go outside the playground to purchase drinks for her.
Seeing Hao Ren disappear at the entrance of the playground, Zhao Yanzi turned to look at Xie Yujia and uttered a sentence that surprised Xie Yujia: "You must be his girlfriend"
"Uh... this..." Xie Yujia stared at her blankly, completely unprepared for such a question.
She took a closer look at the young girl and noticed that she had delicate, smooth skin and bright, sparkling eyes, making her very cute. Wearing an ordinary high school uniform, instead of looking plain, it made her appear youthful and lively.
Moreover, as her body matured, she looked increasingly beautiful. Any person with normal aesthetic standards would consider her a super adorable girl who would soon grow into a stunning beauty.
However, the domineering aura in Zhao Yanzǐ's eyes made Xie Yujia hesitant to simply think of her as cute based on appearance alone. A sense of danger emanated from her body, making even the "big sister" who was four or five years older feel a bit nervous.
"I saw it all; give him water," Zhao Yanzǐ said next.
"Oh, you mean this..." Xie Yujia breathed a sigh of relief. "He's like you and didn't bring any drinks, so I gave him one."
"Not his girlfriend" Zhao Yanzǐ tilted her head again, looking at Xie Yujia as if seeking confirmation.
Xie Yujia nodded blankly, "Um... um..."
"I told you, guys like him wouldn't have a girlfriend," Zhao Yanzǐ pouted and said.
Old uncle... Hearing this nickname made Xie Yujia feel a bit uncomfortable. Hao Ren was not handsome but he wasn’t that old either, right
"Are you his sister then" Taking advantage of Hao Ren's absence, she asked her.
"Do you want the truth or lies" Zhao Yanzǐ asked her.
"Of course, I want the truth..." Despite adding "of course", Xie Yujia’s tone still sounded hesitant. She was hoping to hear both the truth and a lie.
"I'll warn you first: that old uncle is quite useless. If you choose him as your boyfriend, you’ll definitely regret it," Zhao Yanzǐ said.
"Oh... then what’s the truth" Xie Yujia was sweating profusely.
"The truth is..." Zhao Yanzǐ teased her by delaying her answer. "I am his fiancée."
“What” Xie Yujia's mouth opened wide in surprise, nearly losing her balance and falling from the stand to the lower level.
At this moment, Hao Ren returned, panting heavily with four bottles of water in hand.
He sat between Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia, separating them and then pulled out two bottles of drink to give to Zhao Yanzi, "Here, for you and your classmate."
Next, he took another bottle and handed it to Xie Yujia, "This is to return to you one bottle."
Xiao Ling took the drink from Zhao Yanzi's hand, moved closer to her, and asked softly, "You said 'fiancée,' was that a joke"
"Of course it’s fake. I just wanted to fool that girl," Zhao Yanzi replied with righteous indignation.
"Why did you need to fool her" Xiao Ling asked in confusion.
"I feel annoyed, is there anything wrong with that" Zhao Yanzi huffed.
With the addition of Zhao Yanzi and her classmate, the atmosphere between Hao Ren and Xie Yujia while watching the game seemed different. Originally, they could still comment on the match, but now their attention was mainly focused on the two junior high school girls beside them.
"Ren, is this your sister" A few curious guys, unaware of Zhao Yanzi's background, came closer to Hao Ren and teased him.
Hao Ren thought they were in for it but instead saw Zhao Yanzi put on an incredibly cute expression and asked them, "Big brother, do you have any snacks to eat"
"Eh" Seeing this extremely pretty girl make a delicate request like that, the guys froze for a moment before quickly handing over unopened bags of chips, cookies, ham slices, etc., to Zhao Yanzi.
"Thank you, big brother!" With a radiant smile, Zhao Yanzi made those boys feel so happy they almost fainted on the spot.
Then, without needing to buy snacks herself, she opened up a large bag of them and ate while watching the game with Xiao Ling, completely ignoring Hao Ren's existence.
Their laughter and chatter made it seem as if they were out for an outing.
Hao Ren was speechless. He struggled with whether to report her to her father tonight about tutoring or feel guilty for skipping class; he felt no remorse at all, which was something that would never happen when he was in junior high school before – there should have been some anxiety at least.
Not just Hao Ren, Xie Yujia also looked somewhat astonished. As a lifelong exemplary student, she found it hard to imagine how these junior high students could skip class with no reason.
Of course, what concerned her more was the "fiancée" Zhao Yanzi mentioned. She didn't believe this little girl was Hao Ren's fiancée; at most, she was a mischievous schoolgirl. However, regarding the rumors about Hao Ren being engaged on that Friday when the Lincoln car came to pick him up, she had heard some things.
Could it be that Hao Ren is engaged to this girl’s sister
If so, then it was no wonder Hao Ren felt helpless towards her and treated her as his younger sister. Xie Yujia used her smart mind to quietly piece together the causes and effects of these matters. the Sect Rules!In the Fifth Heavenly Layer, sects were scattered like stars. Zhao Yanzǐ wandered around for a few rounds before instructing Xiǎobái to slow down so she could pick some pretty flowers....
