The three siblings returned to Deer Mountain Manor.

Ye Yichen only learned today that his sister had been kidnapped because she didn't come home all night. He felt both heartbroken and somewhat relieved.

My sister has a mysterious power; she managed to turn those thugs up like that, and the Wang family didn't get anything out of it either. My sister is amazing; she truly deserves to be called a good girl of the Ye family.

But Ye Wentao's nagging had gone numb to his ears.

Xiaoxi was also taught more seriously by her fourth brother. She often hid in the small house to play with her newly acquired weapons.

The three siblings stayed together happily until the end of the Spring Festival.

When Fourth Brother announced: Xiaoxi, it's time for you to start elementary school.

Xiaoxi burst into tears: I know everything, why should I waste my life there?

Even Seventh Brother isn't on her side this time.

On the first day of school, Fourth Brother took Xiaoxi to a supermarket to buy things. Xiaoxi wanted to buy a lot of snacks, saying she would take them to school to eat, but Fourth Brother rejected her.

He bought Xiaoxi all sorts of school supplies and extracurricular books for elementary school.

Xiaoxi was furious, feeling like she'd bought nothing at the store.

That night, she secretly slipped into the kitchen and sweet-talked Aunt Ning, Yin Lan's mother, and asked her to make her lots and lots of portable snacks.

Aunt Ning is one of the chefs at the manor, and the snacks she makes are so delicious they'll make your tongue tingle.

Xiaoxi packed each of the snacks into pretty little food bags and put them all into the brocade storage bag.

The next day, Xiaoxi was so sleepy that her two older brothers dragged her out of bed very early.

Fourth Brother kept urging him on.

"Xiaoxi, hurry up, it's your first day of school. I'll have Chen Dong take you there, and he'll be picking you up and dropping you off from now on."

"Huh? Why aren't Fourth Brother and Seventh Brother taking Xiaoxi to school?"

"We just don't want you to feel superior at school. Only the principal knows about your situation, and Xiaoxi, don't tell anyone yourself."

Then the two older brothers came down and gave orders: no fighting, no causing trouble.

Chen Dong drove an ordinary Audi and dropped Xiao Xi off at the school gate.

A first-grade teacher came to the gate to pick up the new students. Xiaoxi and another little boy were also transfer students.

Chen Dong is not good with words, so everyone assumed he was Xiao Xi's father.

Now, Xiaoxi has left a stereotype in the minds of her teachers and classmates: What's the use of being good-looking? Her family isn't well-off.

The classroom of Class 1, Grade 1 is on the first floor. Xiao Xi and the little boy Xie Yujie are both transfer students and were assigned to a corner of the classroom with a separate table.

This was exactly what Xiaoxi wanted.

Xiaoxi learned that her deskmate's uncle was a coal mine owner, and that he only had the opportunity to attend this primary school because his uncle spent money on him.

They chatted quietly for a while, but Xiaoxi found it boring and, having gotten up early, she just lay down on the table to sleep.

The fourth period is physical education class.

The PE teacher gave everyone headbands to wear and taught them how to jump like a little frog. Xiaoxi happened to be wearing a frog headband, which made her classmates laugh out loud.

How boring: childish classmates, childish PE class, childish frog jumps—Xiao Xi rolled her eyes several times.

While the teacher wasn't looking, Xiaoxi pulled Xie Yujie and hid under the slide.

"Xie Yujie, are you hungry?"

Xie Yujie saw Xiao Xi taking out small packets of snacks from somewhere, and he chose a packet of beef jerky.

"Wow, this is delicious!" she exclaimed, drooling as she ate.

"If you like it, eat more, Xie Yujie. We'll go out after class."

"But I'm afraid the teacher will find out."

"Scared my ass! Didn't you see we're all free to move around?"

Xie Yujie was timid, but he still went out.

Xiaoxi shook her head and happily munched on her snacks.

Xiaoxi ran out when it was time to assemble, and both the teacher and Xiaoxi noticed that Xie Yujie was missing.

Xiao Xi volunteered, "Teacher, I'll go find Xie Yujie!" and ran off in a flash.

Her hearing is now exceptionally good, and she soon followed Xie Yujie's cries.

The toilet entrance is located in a rather secluded spot near the teaching building.

Two upperclassmen were securing the women's restroom door with ropes while laughing loudly.

What are you doing?

Xiao Xi asked sharply.

"Hey little one, you're pretty good-looking. Are you here to rescue your boyfriend?"

Xiaoxi immediately clenched her fists.
