A classroom at a high school near the Tanhua residential area.
Wen Qing glanced at Zhong Rou, whose eyes were bright as she stared intently at the blackboard, seemingly focused, but she knew that her best friend was actually daydreaming.
"Zhong Rou, you answer this question," the teacher called out.
Zhong Rou slowly stood up and answered the question. The teacher nodded and said, "Correct answer. Sit down."
Wenqing thought her best friend was amazing; she had superb martial arts skills, outstanding intelligence, and could answer questions correctly even when she was daydreaming.
She can't do it.
Just then, the homeroom teacher entered the room, went up to the stage and said, "We have received a notice from higher authorities that leaders are inspecting the cleanliness and hygiene, and we need a few people to clean up."
A glint flashed in Zhong Rou's dark eyes as she raised her hand high: "Teacher, I...I......"
Such a good thing... ...how could she be left out of all the difficult and challenging things?
head teacher:"... ..."
Why weren't you so active just now?
The homeroom teacher called out names: "Shi Chong, Jing Chao, Ma Yinuo..."
Zhong Rou was like the most dazzling star, but the homeroom teacher missed her during roll call and finally said, "Wenqing, Zhong Rou."
"Yay!" Zhong Rou jumped up immediately. "I can have another day of fun."
The homeroom teacher's lips twitched: "... ..."
Can you please not say that in front of me?
Save some face.
Zhong Rou has been paying close attention in class lately, which her homeroom teacher has noticed. Today, the teacher thought of letting her take a break while cleaning.
But looking at her like this, she doesn't need to rest at all.
"In the end, I was wrong," the homeroom teacher thought to himself.
A group of cleaners, carrying their tools, left the school and began cleaning the area in front of the gate.
"Hmph!" "Ha!" "Hey!"
Zhong Rou held a broom like a peerless weapon, wielding it with great force, creating ripples and waves – this was her self-created 'Zhong Rou Style'.
After a set of staff techniques was completed, applause erupted from the sidelines.
"good!"
"Big sister is amazing!"
Looking at his former underling's fawning manner, Lu Rixing gritted his teeth: "Two traitors!"
His two underlings betrayed him, recognizing him as Zhong Rou's underlings, and from then on served her faithfully.
“Brother, it’s not that we betrayed you, it’s that you weren’t strong enough,” one of the henchmen said. “You should look for the reasons within yourself.”
"Am I handsome?" Zhong Rou asked, resting the broom on her shoulder and tilting her chin up.
“Ugly!” Lu Rixing answered without hesitation.
call out!
The broom whistled past, less than three centimeters from Lu Rixing's face, and asked again, "Am I handsome?"
Lu Rixing: "Ugly! Absolutely hideous!"
Zhong Rou put away the broom, feeling utterly bored.
Zhong Rou conquered countless young men and women throughout her life, but why was Lu Rixing always unwilling to submit?
Lu Rixing said, "Zhong Rou, you'll never gain my approval!"
... ...
At the school gate, a middle-aged woman was cracking sunflower seeds and spitting them out carelessly. Wenqing stepped forward and said, "Auntie, we are cleaning up. Could you please stop spitting out sunflower seeds?"
"Auntie, who are you calling auntie? I'm clearly in the prime of my life!" the middle-aged woman said sternly. "If I don't spit out sunflower seeds, what's the point of you and the sanitation workers working? Are you out of your mind? I'm not spitting out sunflower seeds, I'm making a contribution, and it's not just..."
The middle-aged woman rattled off a long string of words. Wenqing lowered his head, speechless, and could only sweep up the melon seeds on the ground. The middle-aged woman spat them out as Wenqing swept.
"You wretched woman!" Zhong Rou swept the broom across the ground, sending sunflower seeds flying. "Are you deaf? Or did you spring from a rock and grow up without any manners? My dog can poop in the bathroom by itself, but you litter..."
"You, you..." the middle-aged woman stammered, pointing at Zhong Rou.
"What do you mean, 'you'?"
"I, I..."
"What do you mean, 'me'?"
"I'm from Shanghai."
"Oh, so what if you're from Shanghai?" Zhong Rou said, hands on her hips. "I'm a successor to socialism!"
Faced with Zhong Rou's aggressive gaze, the middle-aged woman felt uneasy and had no choice but to flee.
"Hmph! Useless!" Zhong Rou sneered, putting her arm around Wen Qing's shoulder. "Wen Qing, you're too kind. If you encounter someone like this in the future, don't be polite, just yell at them!"
Wen Qing smiled faintly: "Thank you, Rou Rou."
"It's nothing!"
As the group was cleaning, they suddenly noticed a group of people gathered by the small river outside the school. Curious, Zhong Rou went over to take a look and saw a girl standing on the railing, shouting loudly, "The pressure of studying is too much, I don't want to live anymore."
Before anyone could react, the little girl jumped into the river.
"Huh? So fast?"
"The rescue team hasn't arrived yet."
"what to do?"
"Quickly jump into the river and rescue them!"
"But I can't swim."
The surrounding crowd was chattering, and just as everyone was caught in a dilemma, Zhong Rou immediately rushed out and jumped into the river to save the person.
Her ponytail fluttered in the air.
... ...
When Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue received the news that Zhong Rou had jumped into the river, their hearts nearly broke. They rushed to the school and found Zhong Rou sitting in the principal's seat with her legs crossed, while the principal and the homeroom teacher served her tea and water.
Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue exchanged glances: "Huh?"
Upon their arrival, the principal explained the whole story, and the two breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Zhong Rou had jumped into the river to save the little girl.
"Here, I want to commend Zhong Rou for her kindness and helpfulness in helping others. She is a role model for all teachers and students in the school..."
Zhong Rou tilted her head and looked at the principal: "Just a verbal praise?"
"Announce this to the entire school!" the principal replied.
"A one-year public notice!"
Principal: "... ...Of course!"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Rou laughed: "Hehe..."
Zhong Rouping loved two things most in her life: money and fame.
Just then, a couple led the girl in and thanked Zhong Rou, saying, "Little sister, you saved my daughter's life. I really don't know how to thank you enough. This is just a small token of our appreciation, please accept it."
Zhong Rou shook her head and refused: "It's alright. Helping others is the source of happiness. As members of the martial arts world, it is our duty to punish the strong and help the weak."
The little girl next to Zhong Rou glared at her, her face full of resentment.
She wanted to die but was saved by Zhong Rou, so she was naturally furious.
The girl gritted her teeth: "Don't be too happy yet, I'll find another chance to kill myself..."
Snap!
Before she could finish speaking, Zhong Rou slapped the girl hard across the face: "You deserve to die! You deserve to die for living like this. Your parents had it much harder to give birth to you and raise you than you did. What right do you have to complain?"
“I respect you for being a hero when you jumped into the river without calling for help, but your behavior in the river clearly shows that you still longed for the human world. You were just using death as an excuse to complain. You are a coward.”
"If you want to die, die sooner!"
Zhong Rou dislikes suicidal behavior, considering it cowardly.
Cowardly behavior will not be tolerated!
Everyone present was taken aback: "???!!!"
Did he just slap me like that?
Why are you speaking so directly?
The little girl seemed stunned by the blow. She slowly came to her senses and lowered her head.
Because of the suicide attempt, Zhong Rou stopped attending classes, and Chu Fang and his companion took her home.
On the way home, Chu Fang thought for a moment and said, "Rou Rou, don't be so impulsive in the future."
Before anyone could react, Zhong Rou slapped the girl across the face, becoming quite agitated.
“Oh,” Zhong Rou replied, “But she really deserves to be hit. The fact that she can study at home in Shanghai already puts her ahead of many, many of her peers.”
"If you're under a lot of academic pressure, then don't study. It's fine to just give up and lie down. Her parents didn't force her; she forced herself to do it. She's just trying to kill herself, and in the end, she'll only bring harm to her family."
Chu Fang smiled and patted his sister-in-law's head.
Zhong Tingyue asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why didn't you take the money her parents gave you?"
It doesn't suit my younger sister's personality.
“No way.” Zhong Rou shook her head. “As a female knight-errant, it’s not about money when it comes to chivalry and helping others. What’s important is integrity, that graceful way of saving people from danger and then leaving gracefully.”
Chu Fang: "Then you won't give me the hundred yuan you paid to beat up Lily."
"No way!" Zhong Rou grabbed Chu Fang's arm. "That's a deal between the two of us, not helping others. Brother-in-law, you have to give it to me. You can't be a deadbeat."
"What you did was also helping others."
“You have to give it.” Zhong Rou looked at Zhong Tingyue. “Sister, look at brother-in-law.”
Zhong Tingyue shrugged: "I can't control him."
The three of them playfully bickered as they went home.
