Chapter 331: "Brother Gao Ming, you are really my lucky star!"
Noah: "..."
What is Miss Lin so excited about?
Lin Xi glanced around the classroom and received a burst of chuckles.
In fact, what happened today wasn't the first time. For some reason, the students had an inexplicable malice towards her. When she first reported, they had tried to trip her up in various ways, including trying to throw water on her, knocking over her books, replacing the water in her cup with dirty water, and even deliberately leaving her homework behind when it was time to hand it in.
Lin Xi never took it seriously and resolved the problems one by one, so as not to make a fool of herself.
Now it has become even worse.
She didn't put down her schoolbag in a hurry and walked straight towards a brown-haired boy.
It was this guy who formed cliques and instigated others to bully others - and he was even the squad leader.
When the guy saw her coming, he gave her a malicious smile.
Lin Xi smiled back, then kicked his chair with a bang.
He jumped up in shock, and Lin Xi grabbed the back of his school uniform and dragged him towards her seat.
"Hey! Ugly freak, what are you doing..."
The boy tried to break free, but was tripped by Lin Xi and had difficulty keeping his balance.
"Uneducated thing." Lin Xi said softly, "Can't you see? I'm—"
Teach you how to do things.
She wanted to push him onto a stool and make his own pants get covered in glue.
Things happened so quickly that no one from the students tried to stop him. They watched helplessly as Lin Xi pulled their beloved monitor to the chair.
However, at this moment, Lin Xi stopped.
The boy reacted, broke free from Lin Xi's hand, and glared at her fiercely: "What are you doing!"
"Class is about to start, so hurry up and get into your own position—" As he said that, he pulled Lin Xi's wrist and was about to push her onto him.
"-Stop!" A steady voice came from the door.
The squad leader paused.
Lin Xi stood there with his head lowered.
Zhu Fu Gaoming stepped into the classroom and quickly came to Lin Xi's side.
"Are you okay?" he asked in a low voice, his eyes scanning her messy desk and pursing his lips.
His sister was bullied.
Right under his nose...
"President." The class monitor was stunned. He didn't expect that the student union would come for inspection at this time. All his malice towards Lin Xi turned into panic.
"You are the monitor of Class 7." Zhu Fu Gaoming looked calm. "Can you explain what happened here?"
He stood next to the table with obscene words written on it, like a gentleman, totally out of place in the dirty scene.
However, he has a peaceful temperament that can calm down the chaotic scene.
The monitor stammered, "Lin Li was bullied. Someone smeared glue on her stool and stained her desk. As the monitor, I came over to check..."
Zhu Fu Gaoming turned to Lin Xi: "Is that so?"
Lin Xi smiled. Her two dimples were faintly visible, making her look very cute. "Brother, he's lying. He was the one who applied the glue, and he even threw my homework away secretly."
"You, you're...lying." The squad leader was anxious and turned to criticize Lin Xi, but Zhu Fu Gaoming glanced at him indifferently, so he couldn't help but lower his voice.
Lin Xi blinked: "Really. And that, that, that person."
She pointed at them one by one, "Throwing water in my desk drawer, throwing my homework into the trash can, and cutting my schoolbag straps when I wasn't around..."
Every time Lin Xi said something, Zhu Fu Gaoming's brows furrowed a little more.
No wonder Lin Li changed her schoolbag a few days ago, and sometimes did her homework while working in the bookstore.
"I see," he said. "Can I handle this?"
Lin Xi's hands couldn't help but tighten.
It’s that familiar feeling again…memories are about to burst forth.
She suddenly covered her head.
【——"Can you let me handle this?"
In the backlight, the man's face was not clear. All I could see was the smile on his lips and his inquiring eyes.
"Hey, brother, I can do it."
Lin Xi heard herself say, "Don't worry about it, your sister can do anything."
"Oh, and don't tell Mom and Dad. If they knew, they would definitely not let me go to school again..."
"I know you can handle it." A gentle hand stroked the top of her hair. "But Xiaoxi, isn't family meant to be relied upon?"
"Sometimes, I also want you to rely on me more, right?"
Warm hands covered hers.
"What's wrong with you? Are you okay? Do you have a headache or feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Zhu Fu Gaoming's nervous voice sounded in her ears, bringing her back to reality.
Lin Xi put down her hand and looked at him with sparkling eyes: "I'm fine. Brother Gao Ming, you are really my lucky star!"
I have never had such clear memories of the past as I do today!
Although it was just a short paragraph and a few sentences, it was enough to make Lin Xi happy.
Zhu Fu Gaoming was stunned.
"Then, Ali, you go home first." He said, "I will ask for leave from the teacher for you."
"Okay, Brother Gao Ming, thank you!"
Lin Xi secretly made a heart shape with her hands to him.
Zhu Fu Gaoming was infected by her emotions and felt a little relieved.
Ahri seemed completely unaffected and even looked happier than she had this morning.
But then he thought again and felt heavy-hearted: As expected, Ali has become accustomed to this kind of thing, and he must have been bullied a lot in the past.
He watched the girl's back as she left, and thought to himself, as a brother, he would definitely fulfill his brotherly duties and protect Ali.
…
Outside the ring.
Xiao Linxi rode her bicycle and recalled the time she spent with her brother.
Because she had injured her left leg in a car accident when she was young, Lin Xi had been a cripple in her previous life. She couldn't walk fast, couldn't run, and was like a lame sheep, only able to watch other children happily run away from her.
Maybe because of this, she...has always had some dark thoughts in her heart.
She only feels truly relaxed when she is with her family.
She never smiled in front of outsiders, so she looked gloomy and unpleasant... So, after entering junior high school, she was bullied by the group.
During that time, her parents were very busy and on business trips abroad, and her brother's company was just starting out, so Lin Xi didn't want to disturb him.
She planned to deal with it herself. Children's malice always came out of nowhere. They always seemed to lack sufficient empathy and liked to hurt others with words and actions.
However, she also didn't have empathy. Her brother and parents were busy, so her malicious intent wasn't completely unfounded. She could have some fun with them... After all, high school classes were so boring, so she didn't want to miss out on some fun that was right at her doorstep.
In the end, he was discovered by his brother.
Oh, there's nothing we can do about it.
We have to use a more gentle way to resolve the conflict.
"Sometimes, I also want you to rely on me more?" said my brother.
"But I can't rely on my brother forever." She said with a smile, completely different from the gloomy look in front of her classmates. "Besides, my brother is busy with company matters and works very late every day. Wait until he finishes his own things before helping me!"
"Okay, okay, I believe in the creek."
However, although her brother said this, he quickly checked the surveillance footage in the teaching building, found evidence that those people bullied her, and quickly expelled them.
Oh, she knew it would be like this.
Her older brother was very capable and had always been very reliable. It seemed like he could help her solve any problem she encountered... Over time, she developed a bad habit of over-dependence.
When she first came into this world, she looked forward to her brother coming to pick her up every day, just like he used to pick her up at the school gate, to take her home...
However, there are indeed things in this world that my brother cannot do.
In this world, she can only rely on herself.
But her family remained her strongest source of strength. Whenever she thought of them, and the thought that she might one day be able to return, the self-destructive impulses she felt under torture were suppressed, transforming into an even stronger hope.
Lin Xi lowered his eyes and parked his bicycle.
The memory hypnosis the old man taught her was quite useful. After a few days of brainwashing, she still remembered this memory clearly.
She didn't need to remember all of her memories. From beginning to end, she just wanted to seize the opportunity and remember the experiences that proved that she once had a family and was loved.
This is the most important thing to her and she must not throw it away.
She walked into the house.
"Miss, the gentleman is waiting for you in the room." said the servant with a smile.
Lin Xi nodded.
In the room, the man was playing with the cat specimen made by Lin Xi.
Lin Xi is very talented in everything he does, even making animal specimens that are lifelike.
If you don't know, just looking at the specimen, you might think it's a living cat.
"Sir." Lin Xi stopped at the door.
"You're back." The boss looked her up and down. "Have you been painting recently?"
Lin Xi nodded.
"It's just a hobby," she said. "Painting can improve your character."
She rented a studio and bought some painting supplies.
Of course, she had no real intention of painting; she was just doing it for the men. She had to do something "rebellious" but harmless to cover up what she was really doing.
"Really?" The boss raised an eyebrow at her, "So, have you cultivated your character?"
Lin Xi smiled faintly.
"It does seem to be working, sir."
My determination to kill you grows stronger every day, sir.
The boss put the cat back on display.
"I showed your painting to Master Ruan, and he spoke very highly of you. It seems that you are also very talented in art."
Master Ruan is a famous painter in Hong Kong, and one of his paintings can earn millions.
"The teacher teaches well." Lin Xi said, a little unsure of what he meant.
This statement is purely a compliment.
The boss only teaches her the skills of killing, not the skills of living. Art is something that is useless to him, so he certainly won't let Lin Xi learn it.
However……
"Since you like it, then draw it well." The boss, wearing gloves, gently tucked a strand of hair from the side of Lin Xi's face behind her ear. "I'll have someone teach you. Now, follow me to the second room."
"Your treatment for the day is about to begin."
"……yes."
A trace of uneasiness emerged in Lin Xi's heart.
What was going on? Why did this person care so much about her painting?
Did she miss something?
