Turn over, you bitch!

The curious look that a child should have, although it quickly disappeared.

"How is it? Great?" Xu Chen raised his eyebrows to look at him, but the other party "cut" and stopped talking.

Really awkward kid.

Leaping onto the long sword suspended in mid-air with ease, he stretched out his hand towards Lin Ran: "Come up."

Lin Ran pursed her lips and looked at him, then passed her hand over.

After pulling him up and making him stand facing him, he made a complicated gesture with both hands in the air, continued to recite the mantra silently, and the sword under his feet accelerated forward.

The expected scream did not appear, Xu Chen lowered his head and saw that Lin Ran was just lightly grabbing the hem of his clothes, turning his head and looking straight ahead expressionlessly.

Severely frustrated... I still remember the first time I used the sword before, his throat was hoarse...

It's not as calm as a ten-year-old kid. Is he too good or the other party is too strong?

When he arrived at the Tongcheng faction, Xu Chen took him to his residence.

On the way, he happened to meet Zhao Xiaofei who was going to practice swordsmanship, and hurriedly pulled him over to be a strong man: "Xiao Fei, go and get some new clothes, they are only his size." He pointed to Lin Ran who was beside him.

"Eh? Master's new apprentice?" Zhao Xiaofei looked at Lin Ran curiously.

Lin Ran looked at him alertly, but didn't speak.

"That's right, his name is Lin Ran." Xu Chen introduced him.

Zhao Xiaofei grinned and stretched out his hand: "Hello, my name is Zhao Xiaofei, and I'm your elder brother."

Lin Ran looked down at his hands, then at his face, and turned his head coldly.

"He's afraid of strangers." Xu Chen found an excuse to break the embarrassment between the two: "Hurry up and get your clothes."

"Okay, Master." Zhao Xiaofei smiled generously, expressing his understanding.

Xu Chen led Lin Ran to continue walking for a while, when the other party suddenly said, "I'm not afraid of strangers."

"Then why didn't you respond just now?"

Lin Ran lowered his eyes and did not speak, and did not know what he was thinking.

Xu Chen didn't bother to ask any more, so he led him around the wooden house and walked to the stone pool behind.

Although the stone pool was not deep, it only covered his chest, but for Lin Ran who only reached his waist, it was enough to cover the top of his head.

In desperation, Xu Chen had no choice but to help him take a bath himself.

Leading him slowly into the stone pool, reaching out to peel off the tattered clothes, but he grabbed him.

Lin Ran looked at him nervously: "What are you doing!"

"Take a shower! You don't even know how dirty you are, and the clothes are too torn, so take them off quickly." Xu Chen explained.

But the other party still stubbornly grabbed his hand and refused to let go.

Xu Chen was a little helpless, and threatened in a low voice: "Release! Otherwise, I won't give you steamed buns."

Lin Ran looked at him with extremely unwilling eyes, but slowly let go of his hand.

==The steamed buns are still powerful...

After washing him from head to toe, Xu Chen finally had a sense of accomplishment, especially since the other party still had a pretty face.

It doesn't seem to be a bad loss, at least in terms of appearance, it exceeds the standard line by a large margin.

Zhao Xiaofei, who came with the clothes, was also stunned, and said foolishly: "Master, the younger brother looks really pretty."

Lin Ran's face darkened, and his hands gripped the robe tightly.

Seeing his unhappiness, Zhao Xiaofei quickly covered his mouth, and said awkwardly, "I'm just joking."

"Okay, okay, quickly bring the clothes here, and then go get some food, remember to bring more steamed buns."

"Okay." Zhao Xiaofei ran away again, not knowing what he was joking about.

"Put your clothes on yourself. I also want to take a shower. When you're done, go to the house and get a clean set of clothes for me." Xu Chen glanced at Lin Ran who was standing on the shore and didn't know what he was thinking, and directed road.

Then, regardless of whether he agreed or not, he turned around and took off his clothes to take a shower.

Lin Ran turned to look at him, then walked slowly to the clothes and changed them.

"Hey! Where did you put your clothes?" Lin Ran asked after getting dressed.

"Call Master!" The tone was dissatisfied.

Lin Ran disdainfully "cut": "I won't take it until you tell me."

Nima!

Xiaofei, as a teacher, I should send you a pennant with the name "Three Good Disciples".

"There is a wardrobe in the first room on the left in the back row." Xu Chen said coldly.

A few minutes later, Lin Ran threw the clothes on the stone in front of him, turned and walked away without saying anything.

==RZ, you win...

After Lin Ran had eaten, Xu Chen ordered Zhao Xiaofei to arrange a place for him to live.

There are many disciples of the Tongcheng School, Linchuan alone has more than 100 people, so it is impossible for each of them to arrange a separate residence for them, basically five or six people live in one room.

"The room I live in happened to have an empty bed, so why not let Junior Brother Lin live there, so that I can take care of him." Zhao Xiaofei smiled.

"Alright, let's arrange it like that. If there is anything he doesn't understand in the future, you can teach him more." Xu Chen stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely not disappoint your expectations of me."

Seeing Zhao Xiaofei's excited face, and then looking down at Lin Ran who was expressionless next to him, the corners of Xu Chen's mouth twitched slightly.

It would be nice if these two personalities could be neutralized with each other.

When Lin Ran followed Zhao Xiaofei away, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, he looked back at the white figure sitting in the room, and finally did not speak.

He knows that his character is not pleasing, but he can't bow down to please someone, only this unwillingness to give in is his last pride.

————————————————————————————————————————————

Xu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief after accepting his apprentices, but the system didn't give him a chance to take a breather, and gave him another task—[Please get the violet flowers within one month, which can be exchanged for gifts. 】

It took him three days to find out the records about violets in books. This kind of flower grows in extremely cold places. The known place where it grows is the top of Yanlan Mountain in the northernmost part of the mainland.

It takes about ten days to travel from Tongcheng School to Yanlan Mountain. If the journey goes well, it is not an impossible task to pick purple flowers within a month.

So Xu Chen decided to accept a mission. Of course, he was also curious about what the exchanged gift was.

In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Xu Chen didn't tell anyone that he was going to leave temporarily, but only told Zhao Xiaofei that he was going to retreat for a while and not to let anyone disturb him.

After secretly leaving the Tongcheng faction, Xu Chen Yujian rushed towards Yanlan Mountain, and it took half a month to successfully reach the destination.

Seeing the icy and snowy land under his feet, Xu Chen wrapped the fox fur around his body a little tighter.

It is undoubtedly more difficult to find a flower in the snow, so he searched for a long time, his hands and feet were almost numb from the cold, but he couldn't find that purple flower.

The zhenqi in his body was almost exhausted, he felt that if he continued to look for it, he might freeze to death here, so he decided to call it a day and come back tomorrow.

Yu Jian tremblingly wanted to leave, but his eyes were suddenly attracted by the red thing not far away.

When I got closer, I realized that it was a little white-haired fox buried in the snow and injured, and the red thing was ice and snow stained red with blood.

The little fox is still alive, but has fallen into a coma.

Xu Chen reached out to dig it out, held it in his arms, and Yu Jian left Yanlan Mountain.

I found a family at the foot of the mountain to stay, and then found some medicine to help the little thing I picked up treat the wound.

Because of the serious injury, the little fox couldn't wake up for a while, so Xu Chen had to ask the family to take care of it, while he went up the mountain again to look for Ziluohua.

It wasn't until the third time he went up the mountain that Xu Chen finally found the so-called Ziluohua, and went down the mountain with a look of excitement.

[Ding——Congratulations to the player for picking the violet flower, do you want to exchange it for a gift immediately? 】

"Uh... what's the difference?"

【Gifts exchanged at different times are different and randomly arranged by the system. 】

"Then exchange it now."

[Ding—the exchange is in progress! 】

[Ding—the exchange was successful!Congratulations to the player for obtaining a unique cheat book. 】

"Fuck! Cheats!!!"

He was flattered and held the legendary secret book, glanced at the cover, and saw the four big characters "unique secret book" written on the blue background, and felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

Taking a deep breath, he opened the cheat book.

After discovering that the first page didn't say any cheating words such as "If you want to practice this skill, you must first leave the palace", Xu Chen was a little relieved.

After turning back a few more pages, he closed the book with the corners of his mouth twitching.

Nima...

What kind of secret book is this? This is clearly a book of erotic pictures, and it is also the kind of Longyang erotic picture...

Just as I was about to reach out and throw it away, an electronic sound sounded beside my ears—[Ding——In order to prevent someone from stealing the cheat book, the system will provide a binding function. If the book leaves the player’s body for three hours, it will automatically return to the player’s hand . 】

==I would rather not have such a cheating function!Also, would anyone really steal this kind of book, except for those who, like him, were deceived by its appearance...

In desperation, Xu Chen had no choice but to put the cheat book in his arms, hoping that no one would find out.

When I returned to the house where I was staying, I found that the little fox had woken up and was lying on the bed looking at him with big round eyes.

Xu Chen, who was so cute by its eyes, couldn't help poking his head with his hand, and the other party continued to look at him blankly.

It really is stupid and cute!

Xu Chen turned it over and checked the wound. The wound had scabbed over and there was no need to apply any more medicine.

After moving his eyes away from the wound, he slowly moved down and landed on the lower part of its stomach.

"Speaking of which, is it male or female..." Xu Chen muttered in a low voice, showing a thoughtful expression.

There is a problem to be solved, so a certain wretched guy stretched out his claws to the poor little fox.

After hearing his words, the little fox, ignoring the injuries on his body, struggled to turn over, curled himself into a ball, and looked at Xu Chen vigilantly.

"Can you understand me?" Xu Chen slowly withdrew his hand.

The little fox nodded.

That's right, I almost forgot that this is the world of comprehension, and it's not unusual for a fox to understand human speech.

"Then are you a vixen?"

The little fox tilted his head, expressing his confusion.

"Are you a fox demon?"

The little fox hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"But if you are a fox demon, why can't you speak?"

The little fox turned his head to look around the room, and his eyes fell on the teapot on the wooden table not far away.

"Do you want to drink water?" Xu Chen guessed wildly.

Shaking his head.

"Did you see that teapot?"

Shake your head.What a stupid human being.

"Ah! I see!" He looked excited.

The little fox was also excited.

"You think that teapot is an eyesore, don't you?"

...he is so stupid that there is no cure for it...

The little fox stretched out its paws, moved a few times nimbly, and then began to write strokes on the bed with one finger.

"You can write?"

nod.

"So you want to dip your tea and write?"

nod.Finally understand.

So Xu Chen carried it to the table and watched it write a paragraph on the table with its tea-stained paws.

"You said you were injured, so you can't speak, and you can speak after your injury recovers?"

nod.

"what's your name?"

The little fox continued to write his name on the table with his paws.

"Luo... Han?"

Luo Han nodded.

"Oh, well, my name is Lin Chuan. By the way, your injury is almost healed. I will send you back to Yanlan Mountain tomorrow, right?"

There was another line of writing on the table.

"You don't want to go back?"

Luo Han looked at him and nodded, then stretched his head over and rubbed Xu Chen's neck.

Fuzzy feeling, very comfortable.

"Then you want to go back to Tongcheng School with me?"

nod.

"Okay, then we will leave tomorrow, you should have a good rest first."

The author has something to say: In the preparation for the sixth level, the two-day update is resumed again...

Fifth wear: Zhao Xiaofei is a tease

After returning to the Tongcheng School, Xu Chen stayed in the room for a few more days.

During this period, he would occasionally talk to Luo Han. Of course, the so-called talking was just talking to Luo Han alone, and the other party nodded or shook his head.

Luo Han is a white fox who has practiced for thousands of years. This time, he was accidentally injured by another monster, and his cultivation base was greatly reduced, and he could no longer maintain his human form.According to him, if there is no accident, he will need to practice for at least 100 years before he can transform into a human form again.

Except for talking to Luo Han, Xu Chen basically spent the rest of his time meditating and practicing, but with little effect, and even almost lost his mind several times.It seems that Lin Chuan's demons did not disappear because of the change of soul.

Since the practice has no effect, Xu Chen thinks it's better to go out to relax and give some advice to his disciples.He wouldn't say that he actually enjoys the feeling of being admired by others...

Lin Chuan's appearance is very deceptive. If Xu Chen just walks on the road and doesn't speak, many people will think that he is "as if he is independent from the world, and he has become a fairy".

Seeing that all the people along the way greeted him respectfully, Xu Chen felt secretly refreshed.

But his coolness quickly disappeared, because the scene in front of him shocked him very much.

A thin figure fell to the ground clutching his stomach, and several teenagers who were much taller than him were punching and kicking him, and some even injected true energy into their feet.

Xu Chen recognized that thin figure as his new apprentice, Lin Ran.

I rely on!It's too much for so many people to bully a child!The most important thing is that Lin Ran is also his own apprentice.

"Stop!" he snapped, walking towards them.

Those who hit the person were all taken aback for a moment, and when they saw him, they all knelt on the ground.

Xu Chen walked up to Lin Ran, knelt down, reached out to help him up, and looked at him worriedly: "Are you okay?"

Lin Ran's originally closed eyes suddenly opened, revealing a ferocious gaze like a wild beast, as if he was about to charge up and tear him in half in the next second.

Xu Chen was startled by his eyes and froze.

What's up with him?How could it be that he was the one who beat him?

"Are you okay?" Xu Chen asked again.

The other party twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered: "Stop pretending to be kind over there."

ha?It was really a dog biting Lu Dongbin...

"What do you mean?" Xu Chen frowned.

"You know what I mean by yourself!" Lin Ran gasped slightly after speaking because he was so excited that he hurt his wound.

"Forget it, we'll talk about these things later." Xu Chen knew that he must have misunderstood him.

After saying this, he turned back to the beating teenagers and said in a deep voice: "All of you, go face the wall and think about it."

After those people left, Xu Chen turned his attention to Lin Ran again: "Can you go? I'll take you to get the medicine."

"Go away!" Lin Ran pushed him away, stood up unsteadily from the ground alone, and walked forward step by step.

What a stubborn guy...

Xu Chen slandered, but silently followed behind him.

Before Lin Ran could take a few steps, his figure suddenly flickered and fell to the ground.

"Okay, don't be brave anymore." Xu Chen walked over helplessly and picked him up.

"I told you to get out!!!" Punching and kicking.

"Good, don't make trouble."

(The author messed in: You attacked →→Xu Chen: Beast! He is still a child!)

————————————————————————————————————————————

In the room, a man in a white priestly robe was rubbing medicine on a ten-year-old boy.

"What did you mean by my fake kindness?"

Feeling the cold ointment being gently wiped away on his back, Lin Ran pursed his lips, and said in a low voice, "You sent someone to beat me and then came to save me. It's not a fake kindness..."

"Sure enough, it's a misunderstanding. I didn't let anyone beat you."

"But those people said you asked them to teach me a lesson."

"It seems that punishing them to face the wall is not enough... But, you believe what they say? And why do I have to teach you for no reason? You use..." Thinking about it with your toes, you will feel wrong... Xu Chen finally silently said The second half of the sentence was swallowed back to my stomach, to be a teacher...to be a teacher...

Lin Ran remained silent. Did he really not know or was he just pretending to be stupid?

"I wounded Lu Renjia."

"Eh? Passerby?" Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, and immediately covered his mouth, being a teacher...a teacher...

Lin Ran turned her head and glanced at him, feeling a little puzzled.

Xu Chen calmed down, and said seriously, "What did you say that you injured Passerby A?"

"It was he who insulted me first, so I hit him." When Lin Ran said this, his eyes were fixed on Xu Chen's face.

"If he scolds you, you just do it. That's not good. A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands." Education should start from a child, and Xu Chen thought it was necessary to teach him the principles of life.

"Really? You also think I'm doing something wrong?" Lin Ran's expression became a little weird.

"Of course not, haven't you heard the saying that the enemy doesn't move and I don't move? When he scolds you, you scold you back. When he can't scold you, you will definitely attack. It's not too late to fight back. It won't be too late." Leave a clue, anyway, he was the one who made the first move, wasn't he?" Xu Chen began to impart experience.

Lin Ran was rendered speechless by what he said, this person was clearly more rascal than him.

"However, what exactly did passer-by A scold you that made you want to beat him?" He was not curious.

Lin Ran's complexion became uneasy, and he turned away from looking at him: "It's nothing."

"It's fine if you don't say anything." Xu Chen shrugged and continued to rub the medicine on him.

After helping him heal the wound on his body, Xu Chen began to treat the wound on his face.

Slightly cold fingers slid across his face, Lin Ran, who had never been treated so tenderly before, lowered his eyes to conceal the unnaturalness in his eyes, perhaps getting hurt was not a bad thing.

Or maybe it would be nice to have a master...

"Call out when it hurts, don't keep holding it in." Looking at Lin Ran's tightly pursed lips, Xu Chen unconsciously relaxed his movements and said.

"If you are a man, you can't be afraid of pain."

Xu Chen sneered: "Are you a man? You're clearly a kid..."

Lin Ran stared at him dissatisfied: "Who do you call a brat!"

"you."

"I'm already 11!"

"Yeah, you're ashamed to say you're a man at the age of 11."

"you--"

"What about me, it's rude, I have to call Master!"

"..."

Seeing his speechless appearance, Xu Chen secretly laughed.

Bahaha~ I finally made it back!

After enough trouble, Xu Chen lowered his head and carefully applied the medicine for him.

After applying the medicine, he handed the ointment in front of Lin Ran, and said, "Remember not to let the wound touch the water, and just apply the medicine once a day."

Lin Ran looked up at him, then lowered his head again, but he still didn't pick up the box of ointment.

"What's wrong?" Xu Chen was puzzled by his reaction.

Lin Ran was silent for a moment, and finally said, "I don't want to go back."

Xu Chen finally understood what he was struggling with, and if he went back, he might be bullied again.

"Well, anyway, I still have an empty room here, so you can stay here for now."

"Can you?" Lin Ran suddenly looked up at him.

"Of course." Xu Chen answered while tidying up the medicine box, missing the flashing smile in Lin Ran's eyes.

————————————————————————————————————————————

Xu Chen was woken up early in the morning by Zhao Xiaofei, got up from the bed in a daze, stared at him, hoping he could give him a better reason, otherwise...

Xu Chen silently looked at the other shoes on the bed.

Originally, with Lin Chuan's cultivation base, he didn't need to sleep, but after so many years of normal life, Xu Chen couldn't change it for a while. When it got dark, he couldn't help but want to lie down, lie down Also fell asleep.

"Master! It's not good!"

==Could it be that the second senior brother was captured by a monster?

"Say the point!"

Zhao Xiaofei was choked by him, and continued to worry: "Little Junior Brother, he didn't come back last night, Master, do you think something will happen to him?"

"What are you arguing about?" Lin Ran came out from the next room when he heard the commotion.

"Ah!" Zhao Xiaofei stared blankly at Lin Ran, yelled, and then closed his mouth.

……

"Are you relieved now?" Xu Chen asked while yawning.

"Master, why is my junior brother here?" Zhao Xiaofei said with a look of disbelief, "And the place where he came out just now is..."

"Ah, because only that room has a bed, I let him live there first." Xu Chen completely forgot that that room was originally where Liu Zixi lived, and given Lin Chuan's obsession with Liu Zixi, it was a forbidden place.

"But I just walked in a few steps accidentally and you beat me half to death. Are you too partial? Alas, it really is the old love that can't match the new love..." Zhao Xiaofei looked sad.

The corner of Xu Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought, this guy is also a tease... Wait, why does he use it?

"Is there?" Xu Chen continued to yawn.

"You won't forget..." Zhao Xiaofei was heartbroken.

"Yeah, I can't remember at all."

"……"I think I would not love anymore……

Standing aside, Lin Ran, who had woken up early, listened to their conversation verbatim, feeling a faint sense of joy in his heart, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

At this time, a white mass passed behind Xu Chen.

"Eh?" Zhao Xiaofei rubbed his eyes in disbelief, why did he see the master grow a tail? ! ! !

Lin Ran at the door obviously saw it too, and frowned slightly.

Sensing the movement behind him, Xu Chen's last trace of drowsiness completely disappeared, and stroked his forehead: "Xiao Han, there is no need to hide, you have been exposed."

Luo Han poked his head out from behind Xu Chen slowly, with big agile eyes open, his eyes shifted back and forth between Zhao Xiaofei and Lin Ran.

Sensing Lin Ran's slightly malicious gaze, Luo Han retracted his head again in fright.

"Master, when did you raise a little fox?" Zhao Xiaofei was surprised.

"Hmm..." He lied to Zhao Xiaofei that he was in seclusion, so what reason should he find to substantiate this lie...

After thinking for a long time, I finally found a bad excuse: "I picked it up at the door."

"Doesn't this kind of fox usually live in a relatively cold environment, why come here..." Zhao Xiaofei muttered.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, you all go out." Xu Chen waved his hands helplessly, signaling them to go out.

"Okay Master, then I'll go first." Zhao Xiaofei walked out the door, saw Lin who was standing still, and stretched out his hand to give him a hand: "Little Junior Brother, let's go, don't disturb Master."

Lin Ran was dragged out of the house by him, and he shook off his hand with displeasure after walking not far: "Let go of me."

The disgusted Zhao Xiaofei was stunned for a moment, and his face fell down: "Little brother..."

"Don't call me Junior Brother!" Lin Ran said with a displeased face, "By the way, let me ask you, why didn't you tell... Master... about Lu Renjia?"

"Hehe, you already know?" Zhao Xiaofei patted his head embarrassedly: "You don't have to thank me, really."

Lin Ran rolled his eyes at him, turned around and left.

"Eh? Junior brother, where are you going?" Seeing him walking back again, Zhao Xiaofei asked.

"I won't go back again, you go, and, call me Lin Ran." Lin Ran stopped, but did not turn his head.

——Otherwise, just use my surname, what's your name... just Lin Ran, okay?

Lin Ran...

The author has something to say: decided to write about a love triangle or something, Zhao Xiaofei→Lin Ran→Xu Chen, if you say I'm bloody, that's it...

Fifth Wear: Keeping the Headlines in Formation

"You are a fox who has practiced for a thousand years, and you have been alone for a thousand years~"

Xu Chen was humming a little tune while scribbling on the paper with a brush in boredom, while Luo Han lay quietly on the edge of the table and watched him draw talismans there.

What!He actually said that he was scribbling and drawing ghost symbols!He is practicing drawing spells very seriously, isn't he!

Although Lin Chuan knew the spells well from his memory, the actual operation was another matter. After all, there was a long way to go from theory to practice.Fortunately, Lin Chuan's aptitude and cultivation are still there. After practice, Xu Chen has mastered most of the spells so far, which is really gratifying.

When it was application time, Xu Chen put down his pen, got up and stretched, it was time to check on Lin Ran's study.

Since he was accepted as an apprentice, he naturally had to teach him some things. Xu Chen had already helped him get through the eight meridians, and everything that followed would be up to him to comprehend.

Since Lin Ran didn't know much about cultivation, Xu Chen gave him a book that introduced the basics of cultivation in detail for him to read by himself.

But when he came to the door of Lin Ran's room, what he saw was him sitting at the table, staring at the book and propping his chin to distract himself.

Hmph, he was actually being lazy, punished him for copying the book ten times, it was such a happy decision!

Xu Chen coughed, entered the room with a serious expression, walked to the table, reached out and knocked on the first page of the book on the table: "Don't tell me you've been reading such a book all afternoon. Page."

Lin Ran came back to his senses, raised his head and glanced at him, with an unnatural expression on his face, and said stiffly, "That's because I was serious about it..."

"Read carefully...Okay, then tell me what you understand?"

"I..." Lin Ran hesitated to speak, and finally turned his head away and remained silent.

"Why don't you talk?" Xu Chen pretended to be displeased, but he was secretly happy.

However, to his surprise, Lin Ran suddenly jumped up, shouted "I'm not going to study anymore!" and rushed out of the room.

Eh?

What's going on here?

He didn't seem to say anything serious, did he?Or is it because his self-esteem is too strong?

Alas... Why did he take such a little bastard in a moment of brain twitch...

Picking up the book on the table, flipping through a few pages, he suddenly realized what the problem was. Could it be...he couldn't read...

Living on the street at the age of 11, or earlier, it is actually normal to be illiterate.

Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Chen turned around and quickly walked out of the room, chasing after him.

When he caught up with Lin Ran, the other party was punching and kicking a tree.

Seeing Xu Chen approaching, Lin Ran stared at him fiercely, his eyes filled with suspicious liquid, but his tone was still fierce: "Why are you here again! Laughing at me?!"

In fact, those who look strong and stubborn on the surface are often the most vulnerable in their hearts, not to mention that Lin Ran is still a child after all.

He uses a ferocious appearance to hide his inner fragility, because his environment requires him to do so, because no one cares about him.

It is precisely because of this that he is more sensitive than his peers.

Seeing him holding back tears, Xu Chen felt terribly guilty in his heart, walked up to him and knelt down, stroked his hair, and softened his voice: "I'm sorry, I was negligent, I didn't know you couldn't read , How about it, don’t read that book, I’ll teach you how to read from tomorrow on, okay?”

Lin Ran stared blankly at those unusually gentle eyes, tears fell down uncontrollably, bit his lips tightly to keep from crying.

Why do you want to cry?He had told himself countless times not to cry, because only weak and incompetent people would cry.

However, under the gentle gaze of that person, he could no longer suppress himself.

Xu Chen sighed, gently wiped away his tears, and held him in his arms: "Cry."

Lin Ran's tense expression slowly relaxed, he slowly stretched out his hand, hugged his neck tightly, buried his face in his shoulder, tears stained his collar bit by bit.

After calming down, Lin Ran quietly leaned on his shoulder, feeling warm in her heart, it was a feeling she had never felt before, and she was a little reluctant to let go.

"Does it feel better after crying?"

Lin Ran didn't answer, and raised his eyes to observe his side face secretly, and when he saw Xu Chen looking at him, he quickly looked away.

Seeing that he was fine, Xu Chen let go of him and stood up, took his hand and said, "Go and wash your face."

After walking a few steps, he was caught again. Looking back at Lin Ran who was still standing there, Xu Chen asked doubtfully, "Why don't you leave?"

"I can't walk." Lin Ran lowered his head and stared at the ground under his feet.

Even though he knew he was lying, Xu Chen smiled helplessly and knelt down in front of him: "Come on."

Lin Ran quickly climbed onto his back, stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his neck, and with the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, he whispered in his ear: "Master."

Xu Chen froze for a moment, then smiled, and strode forward with his back behind his back.

————————————————————————————————————————————

Although I'm glad that Lin Ran no longer rejects him like before, but... he can't bear to become so clingy all of a sudden, hey!

"Why don't you go to sleep in your own room?" Xu Chen looked at the one that refused to leave, with a troubled expression on his face.

"I can't sleep alone." Lin Ran sat on the bed wrapped around the quilt like an octopus.

Then how did you fall asleep before! ! !

Xu Chen rubbed his forehead, and sat down on the side of the bed resignedly: "Okay."

Seeing Xu Chen taking off his shoes and going to sleep, Luo Han also jumped onto the bed, but he was kicked off just as he touched the bed board.

……

"What are you doing?" Xu Chen frowned as he watched Luo Han roll on the ground like a snowball.

"I hate furry things." Lin Ran answered as a matter of course.

The corner of Xu Chen's mouth twitched, he walked over and hugged Luo Han, and walked out of the room.

Looking at his leaving back, Lin Ran lowered his eyes, his hands tightly clutching the quilt, his joints turned white.

When Xu Chen entered the room again, he saw Lin Ran lying on the bed with his back facing him, motionless.

Fall asleep so soon?

He walked to the bed lightly, took off his coat, lay down on the bed, and reached out to pull the quilt.

Can't move...

Pull again.

Still can't move...

==Okay, he got it, the guy wasn't asleep at all.

"Stop making trouble." Xu Chen pushed his shoulder.

The quilt was loosened all of a sudden, Xu Chen pulled half of the quilt with satisfaction, and was about to cover it, but found that the quilt was wet.

Fuck!Could it be saliva or something, it's so disgusting...

It wasn't until he saw the slightly shaking shoulders of the other party that he realized something was wrong.
