Chapter 144
After the girl finished speaking, she quickly covered her little mouth and timidly looked up at Lu Qi, who had no expression on his face.
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."
She just wanted to express that Lu Qi looked very strange, cold and dazed, and there was an indescribable sense of incongruity.
Xingnuo waved her hands, revealing her sweet dimples, and spoke well of Lu Qi:
"Lu Qi is a very friendly and enthusiastic kid. He saved me before!"
But the friendly and enthusiastic Lu Qi didn't really want to pay attention to the bunch of idiots in front of him. As Xingnuo was still there, he could only stand there without saying a word, quietly waiting for Xingnuo to finish communicating with the children.
The children half believed and half doubted, and handed the shovel over, tentatively saying:
"Lu Qi, can you help me shovel the sand?"
This is what it means to invite Lu Qi to play together.
Xingnuo tilted his head, looked at Lu Qi with encouragement and expectation.
Lu Qi turned his head and looked at Xing Nuo with a puzzled look.
He was silent, and saw the child holding a small shovel, shaking his head and taking two steps back.
“I don’t shovel sand.”
Lu Qi doesn't like shoveling sand, he only likes to be with Xing Nuo.
The children looked at each other, and seeing Lu Qi's cold expression, they scratched their heads and ran away to play.
Xingnuo looked at the child running away, worried that Lu Qi would be unhappy, so he held his hand and comforted him:
"It's okay, the two of us can play too."
Lu Qi then showed a stiff smile, nodded quickly, and pointed to the sand pit in front:
"Xingnuo, do you want to play with sand? I can help you shovel sand."
Lu Qi demonstrated online what double standards are.
Xing Nuo swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue, shook his head, and pulled Lu Qi to the swing.
"I didn't wear a smock today. My clothes will get dirty. I'll wait until next time."
Chen Wen learned from other parents' practices and bought a small blue coat for Xingnuo. It was long and wide and could be worn over all clothes.
Whenever Xingnuo goes to play in the sand, he will wear this little coverall to prevent his clothes from getting dirty.
Lu Qi nodded and followed Xingnuo to the swing. Seeing him sit down, he couldn't help but smile and helped Xingnuo push it.
"Xingnuo, let me help you!"
Xingnuo hummed, curved his eyes, and said in a soft voice:
"Wait a minute, let me push you!"
Lu Qi said "no need" but pushed the swing very hard and excitedly. If you didn't know, you would think he was the one playing on the swing.
After just two pushes, a dark and thin little boy walked in from the entrance of the community.
When the other party saw Xingnuo, he smiled widely and shouted loudly:
"Xingnuo! You're here! I came here to look for you just now but couldn't find you!"
An Zimo ran over, his eyes full of excitement. Just as he was about to offer to help Xingnuo push the swing, he saw an expressionless little boy standing behind Xingnuo.
An Zimo had never seen Lu Qi before. Seeing him standing behind Xingnuo, he inexplicably felt a sense of crisis in his heart!
"Xingnuo, who is he?"
An Zimo was anxious: "Didn't we agree to play together during the holidays?"
Xingnuo thought An Zimo wanted to play on the swing, so he quickly gave up the swing to make room for him.
"Zimo, come and play. I've already played it several times."
An Zimo didn't move, staring at Lu Qi behind Xingnuo without blinking, and couldn't help puffing up his face.
"I don't want to play, Xingnuo, you play, I'll help you push the swing!"
Xing Nuo looked at Lu Qi, then looked at his friend An Zimo, hesitated for a while, and nodded:
"Okay, Lu Qi has been pushing for a long time and is tired. I will push you two later!"
Lu Qi and An Zimo, who were standing, shook their heads at the same time as if in tacit agreement, and shouted in a louder voice:
"No! I'll push!"
An Zimo was so angry that he didn't know where this kid came from. He put his hands on his waist and boasted:
"I'm Xingnuo's desk mate! You know what desk mate means, right?"
Lu Qi knew it, but he deliberately kept a straight face and uttered three words stiffly:
"have no idea."
An Zimo snorted and muttered:
"How come even your deskmate doesn't know? Don't you go to school?"
Xingnuo knew Lu Qi's situation. It was not easy for a child to grow up in another world full of monsters by stealing energy.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh and pulled An Zimo aside.
When Lu Qi saw Xingnuo whispering with other children, he felt like there was something stuffy in his throat and he couldn't vomit it out.
He had good hearing and could still hear Xingnuo's soft voice even from such a long distance.
"Lu Qi is an orphan. Many people (and monsters) don't like him. His life is not easy."
After hearing this, An Zimo couldn't help but open his little mouth and secretly glanced at Lu Qi.
Seeing that Lu Qi was wrapped so tightly in the middle of summer, with his hands and feet not showing, which was strange, and his speaking style was like a little robot, An Zimo immediately believed what Xingnuo said.
"He's so pitiful. No wonder I've never seen him in the community before. He looks like this."
Xing Nuo glanced at Lu Qi, nodded, and said to An Zimo:
"Zimo, the teacher told us to help each other. Don't bully Lu Qi. He has never played with other children before and doesn't know how to communicate with others."
An Zimo sighed as well when he heard this. His little conscience could no longer bear it.
"He's too miserable. Okay, I definitely won't bully him."
Xing Nuo smiled when he saw this, and looked obedient, and said with his eyes bent:
"Thank you Zimo, you are my good friend. I hope you and Lu Qi can play together."
When An Zimo heard the word "good friend", he immediately became excited, his eyes lit up, and he patted his chest.
"Don't worry, Xingnuo. As your best friend, I will definitely take him out to play!"
An Zimo acted like an older brother, walked over with his hands behind his back, stopped in front of Lu Qi, and looked him up and down.
"Your name is Lu Qi, right? I'll protect you from now on! You don't have to worry about having no kids to play with you!"
Three black lines seemed to slide down Lu Qi's forehead, and after a long while he said speechlessly:
"No, I don't like playing with other kids."
An Zimo just thought he was being stubborn, so he snorted and gave up the position of pushing the swing.
"You help Xingnuo push the swing. I was the one who helped Xingnuo push the swing in kindergarten!"
An Zimo felt that he was so generous to give such an important task to Lu Qi!
Lu Qi listened and his already cold face became even uglier.
Xingnuo agreed to let him push the swing!
It was as if An Zimo had given it to him!
Lu Qi pushed Xingnuo on the swing for a while in a depressed mood, with a gloomy face, and seemed not to be happy at all.
Xingnuo opened his mouth, wanting Lu Qi to play on the swing for a while, but Lu Qi kept shaking his head to refuse.
Seeing that the sun was getting hotter and hotter, An Zimo was afraid of being found by his mother, so he said goodbye to Xingnuo and left.
An Zimo hurried home to eat, and Xingnuo took Lu Qi out of the community and came back to the alley at the corner.
"I'm sorry Lu Qi, I couldn't have fun with you."
Xingnuo felt a little guilty. He had originally wanted to take Lu Qi to play with other kids, trying to get Lu Qi to join a group and live a less lonely life.
But obviously, Lu Qi didn't seem to like that kind of noisy environment.
Lu Qi likes to be alone with Xingnuo like this. The two of them stand together quietly without being disturbed by irrelevant people.
He pursed his lips and smiled, then shook his head and said:
"It's okay. It's fun to play with Xingnuo."
Xingnuo didn't believe it at all. He wrinkled his nose and muttered, "You didn't even play on the swing, you must be unhappy!"
All children know that the child sitting on the swing is having the most fun!
Lu Qi didn't sit down for a single moment this morning!
Lu Qi's icy blue eyes flickered, and he tilted his head to look at Xing Nuo, then reached out and ruffled his little curly hair.
"For me, being with you is always a joy."
Xingnuo always felt that Lu Qi was very gentle at this moment. Although his face was still stiff, he could feel the gentle strength of his metal arm.
With a curved smile, Xingnuo believed it and nodded vigorously.
"Okay, I'll play with you next time!"
Lu Qi nodded and watched Xing Nuo leave from the corner and walk into the community. He also greeted the security guard at the door with a smile.
Feeling happy, as if having no worries.
Lu Qi had previously guessed that Xingnuo must be a child who grew up immersed in love.
For example, in this life, Xingnuo’s father and brother love him very much, as if they want to pour all the love in the world on Xingnuo.
Lu Qi couldn't bear to disturb Xingnuo at all. He felt that Xingnuo deserved all this.
Instead of being alone like before.
Lu Qi returned to the horror world, mixed in with a group of players in the copy, and continued to find out the news that he had not yet figured out.
The sun was scorching the earth, and the faint chirping of cicadas came from the corner, adding a touch of noise to this summer.
These past two days, Xingnuo could only go out because he would be scared away by the high temperature outside. He could only go back to the living room and sit on the sofa to watch cartoons with his brother.
The weather was too hot and Xingnuo couldn't stand it, so he simply tied his curly hair into a small bun and put it on the top of his head.
In Shen Baizhou's words, it looks like a small morning glory.
But Xingnuo didn't care. As long as it was cool, it was fine. Let the morning glory be the morning glory.
When he turned his head, the little bun also swayed and bounced, looking like someone wanted to grab it.
In fact, Shen Baizhou did the same. When he saw the morning glory on Xingnuo's head, he felt itchy and reached out to pull it, which made Xingnuo angry.
When Xingnuo saw his elder brother coming back, he immediately ran over, hugged his legs and complained:
"Brother, you pulled my hair. That's too much!"
Chen Yan saw the little tuft of hair on Xingnuo's head and subconsciously reached out to pull it.
Xingnuo immediately widened his eyes, raised his head in disbelief and glanced at his elder brother.
"Big brother! Don't learn from the second brother!"
Shen Yan laughed in a low voice, holding the little guy and walking back to the living room.
"Okay, I won't learn from him."
He asked again: "Who gave you this tattoo? It's quite interesting... and looks good."
Shen Yan quickly changed his words and gave his brother appropriate praise.
Upon hearing this, Xingnuo straightened his chest, his eyes sparkled, and he raised his chin and said proudly:
"I braided it myself. I learned it from Yiyi before. Yiyi can braid her hair into lots of small braids!"
Yiyi loves beauty very much. She always fiddles with her hair in front of the mirror. From time to time, she will pull Qingqing to give her the same hairstyle.
Xingnuo often handed me a comb, and I learned how to do it naturally after watching it many times.
Shen Yan nodded:
"So that's how it is. That's great. It will keep you cooler in the summer."
Xingnuo was also very satisfied. He walked around with this hairstyle for several days. One day, when thick clouds covered the sun, he ran downstairs to play with his good friends.
The good friend looked at Xingnuo's appearance and was stunned for a long time before reacting.
Yiyi even cried out, and stepped forward to rub his head:
"You're so cute wow Xingno!"
