Chapter 7
The wind blowing in the late spring evening is warm and gentle, slowly sweeping across people's cheeks, bringing warmth.
Xingnuo started to feel sleepy on the way home. He kept nodding his head and his eyelids were almost stuck together and couldn't be separated.
When he finally got home, he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.
“Xingnuo is too tired today, let him sleep quietly.” Shen Wen glanced at Shen Baizhou.
Shen Baizhou was looking at his younger brother. He stretched out his hand to rub his brother's little head but was forced to take it back. He said "oh" and got up and left the bedroom.
The door was quietly closed, and a cold and emotionless voice sounded:
“Chen Baizhou, you will live here from now on, and I will find a school and help you with the admission procedures.”
Shen Baizhou knew what going to school meant, and the distraction in his eyes suddenly disappeared.
"I go to school?" He opened his eyes slightly in disbelief.
Chen Wen glanced at him, and the curve of his mouth seemed a little cold.
"Why, is there a problem?"
As he spoke, Chen Wen said in a sarcastic tone:
"Study hard in school, otherwise your IQ deficiency will be too obvious."
Shen Baizhou didn't dare to resist Shen Wen's order, he opened his mouth, and still gave himself a difficult excuse.
"I'm pretty smart."
Chen Wen said expressionlessly: “Oh.”
Shen Baizhou always felt that he was being looked down upon, but he did not dare to refute, so he could only change the topic:
"Where do I sleep at night?"
Chen Wen pointed to the table:
"I bought you a fish tank. Move it back to the bedroom and don't scare people in the living room."
Shen Baizhou finally regained some energy, hummed, stepped forward, picked up the fish tank that was about the same size as the bathtub, and moved it to the bedroom with all his strength.
The fish tank was filled with cool, clear water. Shen Baizhou dived into it and turned into a pure white, almost transparent little octopus in the tank.
***
The air was a little cool in the morning, and the sunlight shone through the clouds, filling the room with golden light.
Xingnuo stood on his own small stool, holding a toothbrush, and learned how to brush his teeth with foam in his mouth.
"cold."
The mint toothpaste tastes cool and stimulating. Xingnuo's little head kept shrinking back, obviously not used to the taste.
Chen Wen gently held Zi Zi's hand and helped him brush his neat little teeth.
"Next time try a different flavor, strawberry? That one's a little sweeter."
Xingnuo hummed, gulped down, and swallowed the foam.
"Okay~" he said with his little face raised.
Chen Wen was stunned for a moment, and quickly pinched Zizi's mouth, forcing him to open it wider.
"How did you swallow it?"
Chen Wen couldn't help laughing again and tapped Xingnuo's forehead.
"No next time, you can't eat toothpaste. Next we have to learn how to rinse our mouths."
After rinsing his mouth, Xingnuo swallowed most of the water and only spit out a small amount.
Fortunately, the toothbrushing was finally finished and the small light yellow toothbrush was put back on the shelf.
After Xingnuo wiped his little face, he was picked up by his father. He sat obediently in the baby chair he had bought for him and ate his sweet breakfast happily.
Shen Baizhou sat aside, swallowing a steamed bun in one gulp, his eyelids drooping, looking listless.
He felt uncomfortable at the thought of going to school today.
"I can..."
Shen Wen knew what he was going to say and refused coldly: “No.”
Pointing to the things on the sofa, Shen Wen said expressionlessly:
"Grab your schoolbag and go quickly. Private high school starts at 8 a.m., don't be late."
The school that Shen Wen found for Shen Baizhou was not far away. It was a high school with a relaxed atmosphere, and there was not even morning reading or evening self-study in the high school.
Shen Baizhou knew he couldn't escape, so he ate a basket of steamed dumplings and two bowls of porridge, and finally left with his schoolbag.
He walked out of the house, looking back every time he walked, his face was cold and hard, his lips were tightly pursed, and he walked towards the school slowly and reluctantly.
Rongcheng Private High School.
Although the school's admission rate is not high, the discipline is quite good. Before class, the students in the class hurriedly sat down in their seats.
The teacher led Shen Baizhou in, coughed, and raised his voice to introduce him to the students:
"This is the newcomer, Shen Baizhou. We will be classmates for three years. Please give him a round of applause to welcome him."
Shen Baizhou was wearing a white and blue school uniform, with his hands in his pockets lazily, and he exuded an aura of someone who was not easy to mess with.
He raised his eyelids and looked at everyone, then followed the teacher's instructions and sat in the last row.
The students were whispering to each other, and some even turned their heads and glanced furtively at Shen Baizhou who was sitting in the last row.
“So cool!”
"He and I live in the same district. You might not know this, but he was even more arrogant yesterday and dyed his hair white!"
"Oh my god, do you have a photo? He must be so handsome with white hair!"
"Can you please stop being such a nympho? Look at me as a handsome guy!"
Shen Baizhou had good hearing, and all the noisy whispers in the class went into his ears.
He looked up at those people but was too lazy to say anything.
Opening the textbook, Shen Baizhou lowered his head and began to read carefully.
He will certainly prove his intelligence.
It’s just high school. How difficult can it be for a boss-level monster like him?
***
Xingnuo supported himself with his little hands and lay in front of the window, watching his brother's small black dot-like figure disappear at the gate of the community.
He opened his eyes wide, turned his head to look at his father, pointed to the distance, and his little face was full of tension:
"Brother, it's gone!"
Xingnuo spread out his hands, trying to express his confusion and surprise.
Chen Wen hummed, went over to rub the baby's head, and explained:
"Your brother has gone to school, and your son will have to go to school soon."
Xing Nuo repeated in a daze: "Sang Xue."
After saying it several times incoherently, Xingnuo tilted his head again, and his furry curly hair fell on his cheek, making him itchy, and he stretched out his little hand to scratch it.
"Sang Xue, where are you going?"
The sunlight coming in from the window fell into Shen Wen's eyes, which was golden, and his whole body was covered with a layer of warm sunshine, and even his voice was warm.
"Yes, the cub has to go too. Every human cub needs to go to school and learn a lot of useful knowledge and skills."
Zizi listened, but still didn't quite understand what going to school meant.
He turned his little head, looked at the gate of the community where his brother was no longer visible, and asked again:
"With my brother?"
Shen Wen shook his head: “Of course not, your brother is in high school.”
He paused and tapped his chin.
"Maybe he went to kindergarten with you?"
In Shen Wen's opinion, Shen Baizhou's level of knowledge is very worrying.
Of course, this worry soon became a reality.
***
At noon, Xingnuo leaned against the window with an expectant look on his face, waiting for his brother to come back from school.
Seeing his brother appear at the gate of the community, Xingnuo screamed, pressed his little face directly against the glass window, and looked hard with his eyes wide open.
Shen Baizhou, who had just walked into the community, sensed something, paused for a moment, and then looked up.
Even at such a long distance, Shen Baizhou could still accurately lock onto his brother's location.
The little fellow's fat was flattened by the glass, his round eyes were watery and bright, looking over here eagerly.
Shen Baizhou watched and couldn't help but laugh too.
His classmates who came home from school with him scratched their heads and looked at him in confusion.
"What are you laughing at?"
Shen Baizhou's expression showed a bit of unconscious boasting:
"My brother is watching me from behind the glass window. He's waiting for me to finish school."
At the end, Shen Baizhou even sighed: “He is so well behaved!”
The students looked at the floors so far away and so high and were silent for a moment.
"Is this really not your illusion?"
It’s so far away, how can you see anything?
Shen Baizhou didn't want to pay attention to this stupid human, so he raised his chin and snorted.
"You just envy me."
If you don’t have a younger brother, there is no way you can know how well-behaved your younger brother is!
classmate:"……"
After a brief silence, the classmate cursed silently in his heart.
Damn, I’m a brother-con!
Shen Baizhou was in a good mood. Just as he walked to the elevator entrance, a small ball with a milky flavor jumped into his arms.
"elder brother!"
Xingnuo buried his head in his brother's arms, rubbed against him for a long time, and reached out for a hug.
Shen Baizhou picked up the cub skillfully and pinched Xingnuo's little fat.
The little guy's face was soft and slippery. Shen Baizhou pinched it for a long time and finally got his fill.
"Why are you standing at the elevator entrance? Wait for your brother at home next time. It's dangerous outside."
Two days ago, in the middle of the night, a little monster that specialized in scaring people ran out from the corridor.
But Shen Baizhou grabbed it, rolled it into a black ball, and swallowed it.
Otherwise, if this little kid sees this, he will turn into a crybaby.
Xingnuo's fair and tender little face turned red from being pinched, and he turned his face away, not very happy.
“No.”
Shen Baizhou withdrew his hand and did not respond.
In the restaurant, Shen Wen served the lunch he had carefully prepared.
"Is school over? Sit down and eat."
When Shen Baizhou faced his father, his expression suddenly became much more obedient. He hummed, then sat down to eat obediently while holding Xiao Xingnuo.
Looking down at the table full of pitch-black food, Shen Baizhou paused while picking up his chopsticks.
"We have no money?"
Why not order takeout?
After only a few days in the human world, Shen Baizhou had already learned how to order takeout.
This kind of depraved and addictive thing is often learned quickly.
Shen Baizhou thought he was being considerate and said:
"Father, I still have a lot of money."
They were all robbed in the dungeon world. The golden and silver things covered his entire underwater lair.
Shen Baizhou's body is extremely huge, like a dark mountain, and its tentacles extend more than ten meters long from the bottom of the sea.
It can fill up his nest, which shows that there are indeed a lot of things.
Shen Wen’s expression remained unchanged, he walked over with the dishes, sneered, stretched out his hand and slapped Shen Baizhou.
"Eat yours, this is the lunch I prepared carefully."
Xingnuo is a good kid, looking up to cheer for his father in a baby voice:
"That's great~"
Xingnuo had already smelled it and found that the food tasted bitter, different from any other food he had ever eaten!
"Dad, that's terrible!"
Chen Wen was intoxicated by Zi Zi's flattery, his light-colored eyes curved slightly, and he had a different opinion of his own craftsmanship.
“It just doesn’t look good, but it tastes great.”
Since that was what he said, Shen Baizhou believed it.
After studying in high school for a whole morning, Shen Baizhou was already very hungry. He lowered his head and quickly shoveled half a bowl of rice into his mouth.
As soon as he swallowed it, Shen Baizhou's neck became stiff, and he fell straight to the side without making a sound.
Xingnuo, who was holding a small spoon and was about to start eating, was frightened by the bang and the small spoon shook and fell on the table.
With his mouth open in a daze, Xingnuo blinked a few times, but still didn't react to what happened.
***
In the afternoon, Shen Baizhou missed class.
Xingnuo also got on the ambulance with its beeping sounds, and was held in his father's arms in a daze, heading all the way to the hospital.
Sitting in the ambulance, Chen Wen raised his eyes to look at the doctor and said perfunctorily:
"Doctor, is he okay?"
The doctor opened Shen Baizhou's eyelids and took a look, then looked at the instrument test and was silent for a moment.
"The initial diagnosis is that it should be food poisoning."
