Dragon Kingdom, Kyoto.
"Brother Li... I also want to go to other countries with you." Qian Li, dressed in a very suitable tight-fitting training uniform, said shyly, tugging at Li Xuanzu's clothes.
The incident began when Li Xuanzu, a street urchin with nothing to do, decided to visit Qian Li at the psychic training base.
Because Elder Huang had brought Li Xuanzu here before, and their attitude was very friendly, the few spiritualists at the door were very perceptive and let them in without asking any questions.
As soon as he arrived at the training ground, he saw a scene that overturned his understanding.
Qian Li stood with her hands on her hips, her serious expression appearing on her youthful face without seeming out of place.
"What are you doing? Running around the training ground and you still dare to use your psionic energy to slack off? Who likes to use it so much? We'll practice one-on-one later, and I'll let you use it to your heart's content!" A dozen or so first and second-tier psionicists were running desperately on the training ground, their light green camouflage uniforms were soaked through, and it felt like they could be wrung out with water.
Qian Li, acting like a little adult, held a stopwatch, seemingly timing things, and every now and then she would quip off a few students who were secretly using psionic energy.
Li Xuanzu found this scene amusing and stopped in his tracks, sitting far away to watch the show.
After about twenty minutes, people finally stopped one by one, but most of them collapsed due to exhaustion. Even those who had finished running were panting heavily, feeling as if their lungs were about to be expelled.
It's unclear who first looked at Li Xuanzu in the distance, but the other students followed that person's gaze, and gradually, more and more people looked in Li Xuanzu's direction.
"What are you looking at? Rest well after you finish running. If you're not tired, add another fifty laps!" Qian Li noticed their gazes and called out, curiously looking back.
"Brother Li?! What brings you here?" Qian Li dropped the registration form and stopwatch in her hand and skipped and hopped towards Li Xuanzu.
At this moment, she finally showed the liveliness that someone her age should have.
Even when facing her brother Qian Gang, she would never show this little girl's demeanor.
"I've been quite free lately, so I'm taking a stroll. How's the food here? Are you getting enough rest? I hope no one's been bullying you." Li Xuanzu was pleased to see that Qian Li seemed more cheerful than usual.
Emotions are indeed contagious, and Li Xuanzu unconsciously became more talkative.
"Yes! Elder Huang takes good care of me. I train these students every day and teach them how to deal with zombies. It's very easy." Qian Li sat very close to Li Xuanzu and smiled with her eyes narrowed.
She's very cute, but it seems like Li Xuanzu has never seen her before.
So for a moment, he was stunned.
Feeling embarrassed by being stared at so intently, Qian Li lowered her head and looked down.
Li Xuanzu realized what was happening and awkwardly scratched his cheek with his finger.
Qian Li noticed his embarrassment, so she took Li Xuanzu's hand and placed it on her head.
The two were like a father and daughter on their way home from school. Li Xuanzu listened to Qian Li recount her daily experiences, and occasionally watched the girl run a few steps, and couldn't help but smile as he looked at her petite and lively back.
While Li Xuanzu was still in a daze, Qian Li paused, tugged at the hem of Li Xuanzu's clothes, and said the words at the beginning.
Li Xuanzu seemed somewhat surprised to hear Qian Li say that, and subconsciously asked a question.
Did your brother agree to let you go?
“He…he wants to live with Mom…with Mom in Kyoto, and doesn’t want me running around everywhere, but I don’t like that woman.” Qian Li was downcast, seemingly unwilling to forgive her mother’s irresponsibility back then.
“Of course, no problem. I’ve said before, you’re different here. The only question is whether you want to or not. I’ll talk to Old Master Huang and ask Sister Fu Yu to show you her skills.” Li Xuanzu wasn’t happy; he felt a pang of heartache.
The family members that Qian Li longed for day and night showed no regard for her feelings, which was rather cruel to a twelve-year-old child.
(This is not a romance storyline, not a romance storyline, not a romance storyline!!! She's only twelve years old! Otherwise, why would I keep emphasizing this?)
