Chapter 75 075 Zizi: It’s over, it’s over, this wave of trouble…

Lu Xuan: “…”

He wanted to retort, but seeing Pei Qi groaning in discomfort, he swallowed his words and said, "I'm really sorry for the trouble."

"That's good to know!"

Pei Maomao held him contentedly, as if he had no bones, with most of his body pressed on Lu Xuan. His little tail kept flapping the cushion, and he even looked a little comfortable and cozy.

Who can resist a Cat brand cushion?

Pei Qi finally made it through the long drive. When he returned to the dormitory and opened his backpack, he was completely dumbfounded. His speech suddenly became incoherent. "No, Zhuo Jia, how did you get into my backpack?"

Zhuo Jiaxing rushed over and clung to him happily, "Because I wanted Brother Pei to stay, but Brother Pei refused to stay no matter what. So I had no choice but to come with you!"

Pei Qi: "!!!!!!"

It’s over!

It’s over! It’s over!

His heart skipped a beat. It was all over. How could he have brought Zhuo Jia back?

Pei Qi panicked instantly. He quickly said, "No, Zhuo Jia, did you tell your family about your trip? What if they can't find you?"

Zhuo Jia held his head high and said confidently, "I left them a letter saying I'm leaving home!"

Pei Qi: "..."

Oh my god!

Pei Qi panicked instantly. He hurriedly shouted towards the toilet, "Ah Xuan, something happened, something happened, come here quickly!"

"What's wrong?" Lu Xuan slowly came out of the bathroom and looked at him.

Pei Qi felt like he had a lump in his throat. He pointed at Zhuo Jia beside him and said, "Ah Xuan, Zhuo Jia hid in the backpack and came back with us. What should we do?"

Compared to Pei Qi's panic, Lu Xuan was incredibly calm. He slowly and methodically explained, "Tell Teacher Cao first, and have her contact her parents and send her back later."

Zhuo Jia became unhappy when he heard that Lu Xuan wanted to send him back. He puffed up his cheeks and said seriously, "No! I don't want to go back! I want to be with Brother Pei!"

Lu Xuan disapproved and said, "Even if you don't want to go back, you should report it to your family. Otherwise, what if your family calls the police and arrests Pei Qi for child trafficking?"

Zhuo Jia: “…”

Zhuo Jia frowned and said seriously, "My grandma would never do that! She's a gentle person and wouldn't do such a thing!"

"But do you admit that there is a possibility that your family will call the police? That means if you don't report it in time, it will cause trouble for Pei Qi. You don't want Pei Qi to hate you, do you?" Lu Xuan glanced at him sideways and said nonchalantly.

Zhuo Jia, whose tail was stepped on, said: "!!!!"

He glanced at Pei Qi unwillingly, then at Lu Xuan, who was acting in a businesslike manner. After a long pause, he managed to utter, "Then, I'll go with you to report, but I don't want to go back."

"Brother Pei, I want to be with you. The kids in the village only bully me. They don't play with me and only pull my tail. I have no friends..."

As he spoke, the little fox started to cry out of grievance. Who wouldn't be moved by his pitiful look?

Pei Qi: "..."

Pei Qi panicked for a moment, "Hey, don't cry."

Afraid that he wouldn't believe it, the little fox held its big tail and used its paw to push aside the fur, pointing out the scar. "They hit me. The wound has healed, but if you touch it here, you can see a growth."

"Brother Pei, I'm scared. They always say they're joking, but who would joke like that? They're just bullying me in a roundabout way. Grandma and the others don't care at all, saying don't worry about it, it's just an unintentional mistake, how could they make so many unintentional mistakes? Brother Pei, if you're not here, they will definitely bully me..."

The little fox looked tearful, which made him look particularly pitiful.

Pei Qi frowned in distress, "What should I do then?"

At that moment, Pei Qi understood how strict Lu Xuan was with him. Lu Xuan would often lend the exercise books in his schoolbag to other students to copy, but he would never let Pei Qi copy homework. He would rather stay up late with Pei Qi and finish the homework bit by bit, and he would never tell Pei Qi the answer directly.

Pei Qi had previously thought that Lu Xuan was a stingy person. Instead of letting him waste time and energy thinking, why not give Lu Xuan's homework to him to copy? Wouldn't the problem be solved then?

However, on this issue, Lu Xuan was extremely serious. If he said no, it was no, and there was no room for maneuver.

It wasn't until Pei Qi met Zhuo Jia that he realized his problem. Yes, he could help Zhuo Jia fight off the bad guys once, but he couldn't help Zhuo Jia solve problems every time. So what about next time? What if Zhuo Jia was retaliated against more severely next time?

Pei Qi scratched his head and asked, "How about this? I teach you how to fight. From now on, if someone bullies you, you fight back!"

Lu Xuan: “…”

Pei Qi, do you want to listen to what you say?

Do you want her to be called to the school by the teacher like you?

Zhuo Jia blinked, her red eyes filled with helplessness, "Can I?"

Pei Qi nodded repeatedly and said confidently, "Of course! Fighting is easy. You're so smart, I'll teach you how to do it! You'll be able to protect yourself later!"

"Then, then, then I want to learn how to fight from Brother Pei!"

Lu Xuan: “…”

What are you doing learning to fight?

It's clearly the big troublemaker leading the little troublemaker!

Seeing the two of them chatting back and forth, Lu Xuan immediately interrupted and said, "Okay, let's go report to Teacher Cao first to reassure his family. You can talk later."

"good."

Cao Wan was stunned when she saw Zhuo Jia come to the office with them. She was stunned and asked in surprise, "Zhuo Jia, how did you get to the welfare home?"

Zhuo Jia scratched his chin embarrassedly and whispered, "I hid in Brother Pei's backpack and ran out secretly."

Cao Wan: “…”

You are such a wild kid!

Cao Wan rubbed her brows and asked, "Have you told your family that you're coming out like this?"

"No." Zhuo Jia shook his head honestly.

Cao Wan: “…”

I knew it.

"Then I'll contact your parents right away and ask them to send a car to pick you up."

When the question of going back was brought up, Zhuo Jia was particularly resistant, "I don't want to go back. I want to stay here with Brother Pei."

Cao Wan: “…”

Nonsense!

Orphanages take in homeless children, not children whose families refuse to return!

"No, you have to go back!" Cao Wan said firmly.

This is not the place where Zhuo Jia should be.

Zhuo Jia's tears, which he had managed to hold back, seemed to be about to burst out in the next second. He subconsciously hid behind Pei Qi and looked at him expectantly.

Pei Qi: "..."

Seeing the conflict about to break out, Pei Qi quickly tried to smooth things over. "Teacher Cao, why don't we keep him here for a few days to experience the world? Grandma Tian donated a lot of supplies to the welfare home, so it's only natural for us to take care of Zhuo Jia. Besides, Zhuo Jia has been living in the countryside for a long time, so isn't it normal for him to be curious about the outside world?"

Zhuo Jia nodded repeatedly and begged, "Teacher Cao, please let me stay!"
