Walking along the road, Li Xin hesitated, then all that could be heard was, "Xiao Xin, I'm tired, I can't walk anymore."
Li Xin; "……………………"
He silently squatted down, picked up his light-footed aunt, and ran off quickly; they were almost late.
The two were still late, but the teacher didn't mind. Looking at Ma Lihua, whose face was frighteningly pale, the teacher asked with some concern, "Is this student alright?"
"It's nothing, I just need to rest a bit more." Ma Lihua's weak voice rang out. The people in the classroom no longer wanted to laugh at her and Li Xin. They were so sick, yet they still insisted on coming to school. It was truly inspiring.
After receiving sympathy and pitying looks from her classmates and teachers, Ma Lihua was speechless for a moment. Oh well, let them think what they want!
The day was both fulfilling and boring. Ma Lihua was satisfied that she didn't have to walk and could sit or lie in the classroom all day.
There are evening self-study sessions, which day students also attend. Afterwards, they eat in the cafeteria and have two hours to relax.
There are quite a few small shops selling things on campus, as well as corridors and pavilions; No. 1 Middle School is quite large.
Several basketball courts were packed with people playing basketball, badminton, table tennis, soccer, and jump rope – a variety of activities.
This is an activity program set up by the school to relieve students' stress, but playing basketball is the most popular.
After dinner, Ma Lihua sat alone in the pavilion to relax. Li Xin was worried about her, so he carried her to the pavilion closest to where he played basketball before leaving.
He glanced at his aunt every now and then. Ma Lihua took out a book and started reading. There was a pen tucked inside the book, which was her pen for making comments.
"Peng Xing, keep going! Ah..."
"So cool, Peng Xing, keep it up!"
Girls around were calling out Peng Xing's name, along with the names of other boys.
Everywhere exudes youthful energy; the joy of boys, the laughter of girls—everything is so vibrant, so relaxed, and so pleasant.
After an hour of relaxation, Li Xin was so hot that he rolled up his clothes. The school uniforms hadn't been issued yet, and everyone was wearing their own clothes.
Sweat soaked his hair. He rinsed his head with cold water and walked toward his aunt. His handsome and sunny face caught the attention of many girls.
Before he even arrived, he heard his aunt say, "Don't come any closer, it stinks! Wait until the smell dissipates before you come over!"
Li Xin; "……………………"
Okay!
Sitting to the side, I took out my phone and glanced at it. It was 6:30, and I still had half an hour before evening self-study.
After the smell of sweat dissipated, he stood up, patted his bottom, and said, "Auntie, let's go!"
Ma Lihua stood up, straightened her clothes, and walked alongside him.
September was still a bit hot. Li Xin sat behind Ma Lihua, listening attentively to the teacher's lesson and doing his own exercises.
He was about to finish his homework and check what his aunt was doing when he looked up and was nearly scared to death.
Shen Hui watched him menacingly from outside the window, her red eyes filled with malice.
He reached out, his hand trembling, and poked Ma Lihua's back. "Aunt... she... she's watching me from outside the window. What should I do?"
It was break time, and Ma Lihua looked up at the window. There was nothing there; she felt utterly alone.
"I can't see it," Ma Lihua said lightly.
Shen Hui was terrified when she saw Ma Lihua looking out the window; this woman was going to kill her.
For now, she'll go and feast on a few people first, and then get her revenge.
Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Good riddance! He no longer had the heart to do his practice problems.
"Li Xin, are you going to the restroom?" Zhang's enthusiastic voice came from outside the window.
Li Xin looked up and saw Zhang Relie and Hong Botao waiting for him outside the classroom.
"Auntie, I'm going to the restroom."
Ma Lihua; "……………………"
There's no need for me to report this!
Li Xin composed himself and walked towards his two good brothers.
The classrooms of several classes are next to each other. Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4 are on the same floor, and their classrooms are also next to each other.
A group of people were walking down the street gossiping.
"There's a girl in Class 4, she's pretty, her name is Tang Guoguo, and it's a nice name too," Zhang Relie said with great interest.
"She's just so-so! If you ask me, Shu Mali from Xin'er's class is prettier; those big, expressive eyes are so bright." Hong Botao also had his own choice.
The two men immediately became arrogant, and Li Xin muttered, "None of them are as pretty as my aunt."
Zhang Releng; "………………"
Hong Botao; "………………"
They couldn't refute that. Xin'er's aunt was truly beautiful, charming, alluring, and innocent. It was hard to describe the feeling she evoked; she was sure to become a great beauty in the future.
"By the way, why is your aunt's surname Ma? Isn't your father's surname Li?" Hong Botao asked curiously.
Li Xin thought for a moment and was stunned. That's right! Why is his aunt's surname Ma? This question stumped him. His grandmother and great-grandmother were also surnamed Ma. Does that mean that all girls born in the Li family have the surname Ma?
With this curiosity in mind, he thought about it and decided to ask his grandfather when he got home that night.
"I don't know, but she's my aunt anyway," Li Xin said with a hint of pride.
The two rolled their eyes, as if to say, "Who cares about you?"
After the toilets were completely cleaned up, I realized that the school's toilets were huge, with twenty on each floor, and there were plenty of spaces.
However, it was getting dark, and the light in the toilet was flickering. A repairman wouldn't be able to fix it until tomorrow. Li Xin was usually very brave, but after experiencing this special event, he felt that something was wrong.
There were many water stains on the cold floor, and a row of handwashing stations with mirrors connected them. The toilets were crowded now, and there were also many boys looking in the mirror.
When Li Xin looked in the mirror, he always felt that there was someone staring at all of them, which made him extremely panicked.
"Hey!"
"ah……"
Li Xin's loud shout startled everyone in the toilet.
Zhang Relie withdrew his hand and said with an embarrassed smile, "Xin'er, I just patted your shoulder! Why are you reacting so strongly? You never used to say that."
“That was then. You’re going to scare people to death like this,” Li Xin said through gritted teeth.
Zhang Relie was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Alright, alright! I won't scare you anymore. You're such a scaredy-cat. The three of us will take you to a haunted house to boost your courage another day."
After the group left the restroom, it was almost time for them to start their self-study session. People left intermittently until everyone had left, and the restroom became eerily quiet.
"Tick-tock! Tick-tock! Tick-tock!"
The tap water made a crisp, pleasant dripping sound, and at that moment, red eyes appeared on many mirrors.
Its eyes were filled with evil and crimson, and the mirror was covered with countless eyes, like the bumps on a toad's back.
