Chapter 74
The Love that Never Really Dies
Before he could arrive at the classroom, a teacher walked in. Her expression turned cold when she
caught sight of the child and she started to berate him. lan grinned at the teacher. "Okay, Teacher. I
just went to the washroom and forgot where our classroom was. Can you tell me please?â The
teacher was momentarily stunned. Why is lan so talkative all of a sudden? He even smiled at me. He
never smiles at me. All this young boy does is sit around with an aloof expression.
The teacher was still stunned. Before the rest of her could react, her finger instinctively pointed
towards the right classroom. The small child shot her another smile, waved and dashed away.
Several minutes later, in Class 2. The small child found the classroom completely empty. His eyes,
which had already emptied of all emotion, swept the surroundings. His gaze soon fell on a fallen
textbook on the floor. âlan?â He ran towards the desk. It did belong to lan. He picked up the book,
and lanâs name was inside. Moreover, he noticed a familiar transformer toy on the floor as well, and
its arm was torn off. Those jerks. How dare they bully my brother? lan, or rather Matteo, scanned the
classroom angrily. He made a call on his smartwatch. A few seconds later, the same brand of
smartwatch rang. âlan...â He saw it and rushed over, only to realize that the door was locked.
He was absolutely furious. He yanked down the lock and kicked the door in. âAre you okay, lan? I'm
here!â lan was curled into a ball inside. He was all withdrawn and always felt that he lacked security.
After he was locked inside, he squeezed himself into a corner with his knees tucked in tightly. He
remained in that position throughout. His small face was as white as a sheet. âDonât be scared, lan.
I'm here to save you.â Matteoâs heart ached when he saw him in that condition. He crouched down
next to his fraternal brother and suppressed the fury within him. Slowly, he reached out his hand
and patted lanâs shoulder, trying to comfort him. lan was still in a daze but regained his senses
gradually. âYou're finally here, Matt..."
He was sobbing as he climbed onto Matteo and hugged him tightly. His grip was so tight that
Matteo struggled to breathe. It just so happened that Matteo had been tracking his motherâs signal
when lan was locked up. He saw she was at the preschool and guessed that his mother must have
sent lan there. Hence, he called lan on his smartwatch to check on him. He never expected to
stumble onto such a situation. How dare someone bullies the brother of Matteo Wand? He's as good
as dead! Matteo could feel his brother quaking in fear as he hugged him. He was so overcome with
rage that flames almost started shooting out of his eyes. âGo, take me to them. I'll avenge you!â
"Huh?" lan was preoccupied with the warmth he felt in his brother's embrace. After he heard what
Matteo said, he released him and his eyes widened in shock.
Avenge? Matteo could never stand to let the bullying slide and he was not going to explain to his
brother. When he saw lanâs hesitation, he handed him a mask and pulled him out. At a planter box
behind the preschool. The chubby child and his gang who had stolen lan's transformer toy were
playing there. They were astonished by how real this transformer toy seemed. It was as though it
had leaped right out of the cartoon and into their hands. They had never played with such a toy
before. Why does the idiot have something so cool? The chubby boy was ecstatic, and he was more
than prepared to claim the toy as his own. At this moment, a childish yet cold voice screamed down
from above the chubby child's head. âGive it back!"
The chubby child's head snapped up and realized that there was a child standing behind him who
was currently glaring down at the transformer toy in his hand. âlan? You got out? Who let you out?
How dare you?â The chubby child immediately recognized the other child. Despite his fear, his first
reaction was to bellow and call upon the rest of the children into action. They quickly assumed the
formation to beat lan up. Beat me up? Matteo chuckled haughtily. He could not be bothered to
speak, and he lunged towards the chubby child. In a flash, Matteo had swiped the transformer toy
away before the chubby child even had time to react. The chubby child was absolutely floored.
