At the time she was worried that she had no rice to cook, she smelled a faint fragrance coming from the next door. Her son kept crying and said that there must be something good to eat next door.
So she hurriedly put on the worst clothes with her son and rushed to the house to beg.
She made up her mind that she must stay at the door. If they didnât give her food, she wouldnât leave.
Anyway, no matter how she made trouble, the family of three would curse at most and would not do anything to her. She was not afraid at all.
The iron door opened, but a young girl who she had never seen walked out of it. Behind her was the son of the Xu family.
âYouâre the neighbor next door,â the little girl spoke with a smile, her small face was both gentle and delicate.
âYes, I am your neighbor and live next door,â the woman pointed to a villa next to it.
Although the villas there were all single-family designs, they were relatively close to each other. The walls of the two villas were close together, sharing a green space at the back door.
Chu Qianxun nodded, and said softly, âThen please donât come again in the future, our house has no food for you.â
âLittle girl, we really canât do anything. Look at my son. He is so young and hasnât eaten anything for three days. Can you bear to watch a child starve to death? He is poor and pitiful. Please share food with us, okay?â
She was secretly happy in her heart. Little girls like Chu Qianxun were the best type to deal with. They were young, thin-faced, and soft-hearted. As long as they acted pitiful, they would not worry about not having food. Wiping her tears, she was about to hug Chu Qianxunâs legs.
A red long blade came out of its sheath silently, pressed against her shoulder, and the sharp blade plunged into her shoulder without mercy.
The woman could hardly believe it. She looked at the red blade that was stuck in her shoulder, and the intense pain reached her brain after a while.
She screamed, rolled back a few steps, and covered the bloody wound of her shoulder, âYou, you, why do you hurt people?!â
The girl who had just laughed sweetly, teleported to her like a ghost, and kicked her without a word.
Chu Qianxun stepped on the back of the womanâs hand, a red light flashed, and two fingers rolled to the ground.
The woman was completely stunned. Looking at the two fingers left on the ground, her lips trembled, and she even forgot to scream.
The howling son next to her was so scared that he stopped crying.
âGet lost right away, otherwise I might not only hurt people, but may also kill people,â Chu Qianxun said coldly.
The womanâs face was pale, cold sweat rolled down. She resisted the severe pain, shivered and stood up, grabbed her son and left, âNo, donât. We are going now.â
âWait a minute,â Chu Qianxun called to her, âI want that villa. From now on, stay away.â
In a short while, Chu Qianxun dealt with the difficult pair of mother and son.
Xu Xiangyang, who followed her, was dumbfounded, âXunxun, you, you are tooâ¦â
âSo what?â Chu Qianxun interrupted him, âBrother Xiangyang, in this world, the weaker you are, the more people bully you. Only the truly strong are qualified to show their kindness to those who are worthy of kindness. â
Chu Qianxun shook off the blood on the blade, returned it to its sheath, turned back to the house, leaving only a cold sentence, âIf you donât change yourself and adapt to this era, you will never be able to protect the family you want to protect.â

The golden sun was sinking.
Residents in the district had returned to their homes one after another. The sandstorm was a bit big, and the air was even filled with fine yellow sand.
âDad, look there!â A boy stood on the balcony and pointed to two buildings not far away in surprise.
His father looked along his fingers and saw a thick earthen wall slowly rising at a speed visible to the naked eye around the two villas adjacent to them.
âWhere did the master come from? How many levels of power did he need to do this?â The boyâs father said.
The high wall of rammed earth condensed, at an amazing speed, encircled the two neighboring villas, together with the surrounding green space, into one, showing outsiders their inviolable territory.
The person was able to build it with ease.
With the surprised gaze of the entire community, the loess on the high wall began to shift and change, forming small defensive towers with pointed roofs on all sides of the wall. Small observation windows were opened on the building, and even the mood changed on the surface. Some beautiful and streamlined patterns were produced.
âWow. This is really shocking.â Xu Xiangyang watched Ye Peitian perform his ability up close, and was so surprised that his jaw dropped, âXunxun, if he wasnât your boyfriend, I would have still called him big brother.â
Ye Peitian retracted his arm, his face turned red, âBrother Xiangyang, donât say that.â
Xu Xiangyang shook his hands with both hands, âBig brother, youâre too awesome. Today I am completely convinced by you. From now on, our family will count on you to take care of Xunxun. But let me say this first. You canât bully her. â
Gao Yan chuckled and laughed, âCousin, you donât know, usually Qianxunâ¦â
Chu Qianxunâs hand went around her neck and covered her mouth.
Miao: Haha, itâs the other way around.
