This familiar voice almost made Hao Ren fall from the stand.
He turned his head around and saw Zhao Yanzi standing behind him with a smile on her face. Ling who he met once at the gate of LingZhao Middle School was standing beside her.
âYou⦠Why are you here?â Hao Ren looked at her in surprise.
âI skipped school,â Zhao Yanzi said nonchalantly.
Hao Ren was speechless. He thought about it and scolded her, âNot only did you skip school yourself, but you also told your friend to skip too.â
âThe classes today arenât that important. Itâs fine.â Zhao Yanzi still acted like there was nothing wrong with skipping school.
Hao Ren couldnât do anything about her and didnât know how to deal with her right now.
âThis isâ¦â Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren in confusion.
âAh, this is myâ¦,â Hao Ren could only say, âmy sister.â
âYour sister is very beautiful,â Xie Yujia praised Zhao Yanzi sincerely.
âYouâre very beautiful too, big sister,â Zhao Yanzi answered deliberately.
While the two girls were looking at each other, Zhou Liren, who was sitting at the top of the spectator stand and playing cards, poked Zhao Jiayi and pointed at Hao Ren.
âDamn! Itâs that little girl from last time. Ren is in big trouble!â Zhao Jiayi frowned as he recognized Zhao Yanzi as the one who waited for Hao Ren at Green Hill Cafeteria.
âWant to go and check it out?â Zhao Liren dropped the cards and said worriedly.
âCheck out what? That little girl is so hard to deal with. You think you could do it?â
âThen what should we do?â Zhou Liren stared at Zhao Jiayi.
Zhao Jiayi glared at him. âCut the cr*p! Of course, we should continue to play cards! A pair of kings!â
At Hao Renâs side, Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia gazed at each other for two seconds without saying anything.
Xie Yujia wasnât stupid; she could sense a bit of jealousy when Zhao Yanzi called her âbig sisterâ. Thus, she stopped talking and waited to see what would happen next.
âIâm already here, and you want me to go back?â Zhao Yanzi glared at Hao Ren and asked.
âSo I should allow you to skip class?â Hao Ren asked her.
Zhao Yanzi pouted. âFine, Iâll go see Luâ¦â
Hao Ren covered her mouth, âOkay okay okay, you win. You can stay around for a while. But go back before noon.â
Zhao Yanzi pushed away Hao Renâs arm and dragged Ling to sit beside her.
âYour sister seems like sheâs tough to deal with,â Xie Yujia came up to Hao Ren and whispered.
Hao Ren rubbed his temples and couldnât express his discomfort. Who would have expected that this little girl would skip class and come here?â
âIâm thirsty. Go buy a drink for me. Oh and get a drink for Ling too,â Zhao Yanzi said to Hao Ren after sitting down.
âIâll give you money. You go buy them yourself!â Hao Ren said petulantly.
âI donât know your campus well. What if I get lost?â Zhao Yanzi retorted.
âHow did you find this place then?â
âIsnât the big sports field easy to find? I had to ask one by one for the location of your class!â Zhao Yanzi squinted her eyes and said with pride.
âShe probably canât find the corner store. You should buy it for her,â Xie Yujia said.
Thus, Hao Ren stopped arguing with Zhao Yanzi, left the spectator stand, and walked outside of the sports field to buy drinks.
Seeing Hao Ren vanish at the entrance of the sports field, Zhao Yanzi turned her head, looked at Xie Yujia, and said something that surprised Xie Yujia, âAre you his girlfriend?â
âUh⦠umâ¦â Xie Yujia looked at her awkwardly as she didnât expect this kind of question.
She carefully observed this little girl closely and found out that her skin was delicate and smooth. Her flickering eyes made her look especially cute. Moreover, an ordinary middle school uniform didnât make her look average but rather youthful and lively.
Her body that was gradually developing also made people think that she was beautiful. Anyone would find her extremely pretty and see the potential of her becoming a real beauty when she grows up.
However, the aggressiveness of Zhao Yanziâs gaze didnât make Xie Yujia think that she was cute. A âdangerous auraâ diffused from her body, making Xie Yujia, the âbig sisterâ who was four to five years older than her, a little nervous.
âI saw you giving him water,â Zhao Yanzi said.
âOh, about thatâ¦â Xie Yujia was relieved, âheâs just like you. He didnât bring anything to drink, so I gave him a bottle of water. That was it.â
âYouâre not his girlfriend?â Zhao Yanzi tilted her head and looked at Xie Yujia as if she was double-checking.
Xie Yujia nodded dully, âUm⦠umâ¦â
âThought so! How can a guy like Uncle have a girlfriend?â Zhao Yanzi pouted her mouth and said.
âUncleâ¦. â Xie Yujia sweated as she heard this title. Even though Hao Ren wasnât good-looking, he wasnât that old either.
âYouâre his sister?â Xie Jiayu made use of Hao Renâs absence and asked.
âDo you want to hear the truth or the lie?â Zhao Yanzi asked.
âTruth, of courseâ¦â Even when she added the words âof courseâ, Xie Jiayuâs tone sounded hesitant. She wanted to hear both the truth and the lie.
âIâll remind you first that Uncle is quite a useless person. Youâll definitely regret it if he becomes your boyfriend,â Zhao Yanzi said.
âOh⦠then whatâs the truth?â Xie Yujia was covered in sweat as she heard the unexpected âadviceâ.
âThe truth is,â Zhao Yanzi paused for a bit on purpose, âIâm his fiancée.â
âAh?â Xie Yujiaâs mouth opened wide, and she nearly fell to the spectator stand.
At this time, Hao Ren ran back with four bottles of water.
He sat in between Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia, separating them. Then, he handed two bottles of water to Zhao Yanzi. âThis is for you and your classmate.â
Then, he handed a bottle to Xie Yujia. âThis is for your water earlier.â
Ling took the water from Zhao Yanziâs hand, came close to Zhao Yanzi, and whispered, âIs fiancée some kind of a joke?â
âOf course it is. I was tricking her,â Zhao Yanzi whispered back righteously.
âWhy did you trick her?â Ling asked in confusion.
âI am pissed. Why canât I?â Zhao Yanzi snorted twice.
After Zhao Yanzi and her classmate joined them, the atmosphere between Hao Ren and Xie Yujia seemed to be a little different. At first, they could still comment on the competition; but now, both of their attentions were on the two middle school girls.
âIs this your sister, Ren?â A few nosy guys who didnât know anything about Zhao Yanzi came up to Hao Ren and teased him.
Hao Ren thought that these guys were done for as Zhao Yanzi was so short-tempered. However, Zhao Yanzi made an adorable expression and said to them, âHi, do you guys have any snacks?â
âAh?â They were stunned when they heard such request from this super cute little girl. They immediately delivered their unopened potato chips, cookies, and beef jerkies to Zhao Yanzi.
âThank you, big brothers!â Zhao Yanzi gave them a bright smile, causing those guys to almost faint in happiness.
Thus, Zhao Yanzi didnât even have to go out and buy snacks. She opened up a massive pack of snacks and ate them with Ling as they watched the competition. She completely ignored the existence of Hao Ren.
They were having so much fun that it felt like they were out for a field trip.
Hao Ren was completely speechless and was debating whether or not to report this to her father tonight. To his surprise, she skipped school without feeling guilty at all. This was something that absolutely never happened when he was studying in middle school. She should at least be a little nervous.
Not only Hao Ren, but Xie Yujia also looked at them in astonishment. As a Tri-Merit Student (Also called the three-good student. Itâs an award given to students who are athletic, score straight Aâs, and have good morality) since she was little, it was difficult for her to imagine that middle schoolers dared to skip school for no reason.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Certainly, what she cared more about was the âfiancéeâ situation that Zhao Yanzi mentioned. She didnât believe that this little girl was Hao Renâs fiancée. Instead, she thought that Zhao Yanzi was merely a naughty little girl. However, she did hear some rumors regarding the Lincoln Stretch Limousin pick up that Hao Ren had as well as his âengagementâ.
âCould it be that Hao Ren will be marrying this girlâs older sister?â
âIf thatâs the case, no wonder Hao Ren couldnât do anything about her and had to treat her like his little sister,â Xie Yujia analyzed the situation with her intelligent brain.
âHowever, this little girl is so pretty. Her sister must be even prettier.â Another thought came to Xie Yujiaâs mind.
