"Baby, run slower." A small figure ran in the alley, followed closely by a woman.
Hearing the sound, Xia Qi turned his head and grinned at the person behind him.
The innocent smile seemed to warm the earth, and the sunlight shining around the girl became even brighter.
The woman finally caught up with the girl. She squatted down and wiped the sweat off the little girl's face. Her voice sounded like a reproach, but it was very gentle. "What if she falls down later?"
"I'm so happy." Xia Qi was not afraid of the unfamiliar environment in this new place. Instead, she excitedly pulled her mother and said with a smile, "Mom, I like this place. I'll ask Dad to come over when the time comes."
As soon as she finished speaking, the smile on the woman's lips froze.
After a long while, he stroked the little girl's face and said, "Dad is busy and has no time to come here. From now on, it's just the two of us living here, okay?"
Those who didn't notice anything unusual smiled and nodded.
Eight-year-old Xia Qi came to a small county town with her mother and started a new life.
"How's school, honey?"
Today is Xia Qi's first day of school.
"That's right, they can't beat me." Xia Qi answered with a smile while gnawing on the chicken wings in his hand.
Mother Xia shook her head helplessly, "Baby, you don't make friends with fists, you know? You must get along well with the other kids."
"I know." Xia Qi replied absentmindedly.
I can't even beat her. How can I be so weak and boring? How can I make friends with her?
"Also, Mommy will tell you one last time, don't bully other kids, okay?"
Xia Qi seemed to have thought of something, tilting his head and saying, "I didn't, but I saw someone in the class next door being bullied today."
Mother Xia frowned when she heard this. "Next time you see someone being bullied, you must go and help, okay?"
Can you help me?
The image of the handsome boy squatting in the corner without saying a word flashed through Xia Qi's mind.
She didn't want to help such a coward.
However, when he saw the boy trapped against the wall again the next day, Xia Qi stopped out of curiosity.
"Hello." Xia Qi shouted over there.
Several people turned around and looked around nervously. When they found that Xia Qi was the only one there, they continued to wave their fists.
Xia Qi, who had never been ignored, became furious. He threw down his schoolbag and walked over. He grabbed one person in each hand and pushed them aside forcefully.
Pushing through the crowd, Xia Qi could see the person in the corner more clearly.
The little boy had a swollen spot at the corner of his mouth. He pursed his lips coldly. He just glanced at Xia Qi and turned his head away.
He seemed to feel nothing about the additional punch. Even though his face was bruised, his eyes were calm and there was no trace of fear.
Xia Qi has been domineering since he was a child, and has bullied many people, but no one has ever seen anyone who can remain so calm after being beaten like this.
"Why are you meddling in other people's business?" Several dissatisfied voices came from behind.
"That's right, I advise you to stay away. He's a monster."
monster?
When Xia Qi lowered his head to look at the person in the corner again, he found that the boy was stunned by this word.
When I looked up, a pair of red eyes suddenly came into view.
"See? You're still helping a monster like him?"
Xia Qi stared at those red eyes for several seconds before slowly looking away. "I don't know if he's a monster, but I know if you make another move, I can beat you until you pee your pants."
