Everyone's been reborn, so who would bother finding a wife on their own?

Chapter 17 I'm still a child

The day of the exam has finally arrived.

The classroom was so quiet that the only sound was the scratching of pens on paper.

Song Huan sat in her seat, staring at the test paper in front of her, but did not rush to write.

Because his mind was just too busy.

[For the first question, should I choose B or C? B seems right... no, C seems more likely... Oh no, what was I studying for this...?]

[What kind of awful question is this?! Is the teacher who set this question insane?!]

[It's okay, it's okay, calm down. The teacher must have explained this problem before... Did they? I think they did... but I don't think they did...]

[May Buddha bless me, may Guanyin Bodhisattva bless me, may God bless me, I just want to pass...]

Looking at the elementary school students around her racking their brains for the exam, Song Huan almost burst out laughing.

These elementary school students' thoughts are so interesting...

He looked up and glanced around the classroom.

Some people frowned, some bit their pens, and some calmly flipped through the exam paper while frantically making up answers in their minds.

Song Huan looked down at her exam paper.

Then he heard that familiar voice.

It was very light and quiet, like a drop of water falling on the surface of a lake.

[Do the fill-in-the-blank questions first, then the multiple-choice questions, and finally the word problems. Hmm... that should be enough time!]

[This problem uses this formula... Yes, that's it...]

[Next one...]

Song Huan turned her head to look to the side.

Xiao Yunqing sat upright, answering questions attentively with a focused expression, her ponytail hanging down beside her ear.

Her thoughts were just these few words, occasionally a solution to the problem flashed through her mind, but there wasn't a single distracting thought.

Compared to the chaos of the classroom, she was like a quiet, isolated island.

This is what a true academic genius is like!

Song Huan looked away and began answering the questions.

With Xiao Yunqing beside them, the noise didn't seem so unbearable anymore.

……

The bell rang, signaling the end of the exam.

The classroom erupted in chaos.

"What did you choose for the last question?!"

"Oh no, I'm definitely going to fail..."

"How did your exam go?"

Song Huan finished tidying up her stationery, and Xiao Yunqing came over.

"Song Huan".

"Um?"

"Come to my house for dinner today."

Song Huan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Go to her house? Wouldn't that mean facing Xiao Haifeng and Xu Wan? Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

"No need, I'll eat at home..."

"My dad has already spoken to my uncle and aunt," Xiao Yunqing interrupted him, "and they agreed."

Song Huan was stunned again.

I've already said that?

When did his cheapskate father and Xiao Haifeng become so close?

"And..." Xiao Yunqing paused, her voice lowering slightly, "a relative came to my house today with a child who was particularly annoying."

She looked up at Song Huan, a hint of pleading in her eyes.

"Can you help me?"

Looking into her bright, sparkling eyes, Song Huan swallowed the words of refusal that were on the tip of her tongue.

"Alright."

"Yay!"

……

Xiao Yunqing's home is in a government-run residential area. The house is not big, but it is very tidy.

"Hello, Uncle and Auntie, sorry to bother you."

As soon as Song Huan entered the door, she smelled the aroma of food.

Xiao Yunqing saw the open door to her room, her expression changed, and she immediately ran inside.

Xu Wan was busy in the kitchen when she heard the noise and peeked out.

"Little Song is here? Make yourself at home, the food will be ready soon."

Xiao Haifeng was sitting on the sofa. When he saw Song Huan come in, he nodded and asked, "How did the exam go?"

Song Huan answered honestly, "It's alright."

Xiao Haifeng nodded and said nothing more.

But Song Huan heard his inner thoughts.

[This kid's here! He's grown so much in the blink of an eye. It feels like he was still in kindergarten just yesterday.]

My cousin's kid is here today too, I hope nothing bad happens...

Song Huan's heart skipped a beat.

A naughty child?

Before he could think it through, he heard a sharp voice coming from Xiao Yunqing's room.

"I want that teddy bear!"

Song Huan looked in the direction of the sound.

A woman in her thirties was sitting on the bed in Xiao Yunqing's room. She was dressed in jewels and looked like someone you didn't want to mess with.

Standing next to her was a boy, about six or seven years old, chubby, who was pointing at the plush bear on Xiao Yunqing's bedside table.

It's the one Song Huan won in the lottery last time.

Without saying a word, Xiao Yunqing walked over and hugged the teddy bear, saying, "This is mine."

"I want to play!" The boy rushed over and reached out to grab it.

Xiao Yunqing dodged, her brows furrowing.

The woman spoke up: "Tian Tian, ​​don't grab it, that's my sister's."

But his tone was casual, without any real intention to stop it.

The boy ignored her and continued to chase after Xiao Yunqing, demanding more.

Xiao Yunqing was also very troubled, so she quickly hugged the teddy bear and hid behind Song Huan.

The boy caught up, saw Song Huan, paused for a moment, and then continued to reach for the teddy bear in Xiao Yunqing's arms.

"Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me!"

Xiao Yunqing hugged the teddy bear even tighter.

"I won't give it to you."

The boy got angry, ran back to his room, grabbed the small mirror from Xiao Yunqing's desk, and threw it on the ground.

"Snapped!"

The mirror is broken.

Xiao Yunqing was stunned.

She looked down at the mirror shattered into pieces on the floor; it was her favorite piece, a birthday gift from her mother.

The boy looked at her smugly: "If you don't give me the teddy bear, I'll throw your things!"

Xiao Yunqing's eyes immediately turned red.

But she didn't cry; she just pursed her lips and didn't say anything.

The woman walked over, glanced at the broken pieces on the ground, and said lightly, "Oh dear, children don't know any better. It's normal for them to be lively. Yunqing, don't be angry. Auntie will make you a new one later."

Xiao Haifeng frowned.

Xu Wan came out of the kitchen after hearing the noise, and her expression turned grim when she saw the broken pieces on the floor.

But neither of them spoke.

They're relatives after all; it wouldn't look good if things got out of hand.

Seeing this scene and then looking at Xiao Yunqing's reddened eyes, Song Huan felt a surge of anger.

It's time for me, an outsider, to take action!

He looked at the boy.

The boy was holding an Ultraman toy in his hand, waving it around proudly.

He brought it; he was playing with it on the sofa just now.

[This is what happens when you don't let me play!]

Song Huan frowned, walked over, and snatched the Ultraman from his hand.

"What are you doing?!" the boy glared at him.

Song Huan ignored him and looked down at the Ultraman.

Then he started disassembling it.

First take off the arms, then the legs, then the head.

The boy was stunned.

After disassembling the device, Song Huan held the loose parts in her hands and walked to the trash can.

Throw it in.

Then he lifted his foot and stomped twice.

"You!!!" The boy finally realized what was happening and burst into tears.

The woman rushed over and her face changed instantly when she saw the crushed Ultraman figure in the trash can.

"What are you doing?! Have you no manners? How dare you bully people like that?!"

Song Huan looked up at her, her expression innocent.

"Auntie, it's normal for kids to be a little lively."

The woman was stunned; why did that sound so familiar?

Song Huan continued, "Isn't he lively? I'm quite lively too. I'm only in fourth grade, not much older than your son, so what's wrong with you letting me have my way?"

The woman's face turned a deep liver color.

"You! You're an adult... no, you're a child, how could you do this?!"

"Auntie, didn't you just say that children are young and don't understand things, so it's normal for them to be lively? He and I are both children, so why can't I be lively?"

Song Huan blinked, looking completely innocent, leaving the woman speechless.

Xiao Haifeng sat on the sofa, his face expressionless.

But that's what he really felt.

[Good lad...]

Well said...

Xu Wan stood at the kitchen doorway, holding a spatula in her hand, and almost couldn't help but laugh.

[When did this kid become so clever?]

Xiao Yunqing hugged the teddy bear, looked at Song Huan, her eyes still red, but the corners of her mouth were already turned up in a smug smile.

The boy was still crying, clinging to the woman's legs and wailing.

The woman was trembling with anger, but she couldn't utter a word in rebuttal.

The statement she just made, "It's normal for children to be lively," was her own.

Now that Song Huan is lively again, what can she do?

"Mom! He stepped on my Ultraman!"

The woman gritted her teeth and pulled the boy outside.

"Let's go! We're not eating!"

As she reached the door, she turned back and glared fiercely at Song Huan.

"You just wait!"

Song Huan waved with a smile.

"Take care, Auntie. Come visit again next time."

The woman was so angry her face contorted, and she slammed the door and left.

"Hey, don't go! The kids are just playing around, why are you, an adult, so angry?"

Xu Wan quickly caught up with her and said that she couldn't help but laugh out loud after confirming that the woman had left.

Then she turned and glared at Xiao Haifeng, saying, "Look at the kind of relatives you have!"

Xiao Haifeng gave a helpless wry smile, then looked at Song Huan with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

[We still have to fight fire with fire!]

Song Huan: "..."

Take this as a compliment.

Xu Wan walked back, put down the spatula, looked at Song Huan, and said, "Are you hungry? Let's eat first."

Her tone was much gentler than before.

Xiao Yunqing ran to Song Huan's side, hugged the teddy bear, and her eyes sparkled.

"Song Huan".

"Um?"

"You're really amazing."

Song Huan smiled.

"It's alright."

Xiao Yunqing also smiled, a hint of smugness in her smile.

My little brother is really amazing.

Upon hearing this, Song Huan almost choked on her own saliva.

During the meal, Xiao Haifeng unusually took the initiative to serve food to Song Huan.

Eat more.

Song Huan was flattered and said, "Thank you, Uncle."

Xu Wan also put a piece of spare rib on his plate.

"Come visit often in the future."

Song Huan nodded and buried her head in her food.

Xiao Yunqing sat next to him, eating slowly and deliberately. Seeing him eating so heartily made her feel much better.

As she ate, she suddenly whispered, "It's just that mirror..."

Song Huan turned to look at her.

She lowered her head, looking at the rice in her bowl, her voice soft.

"It was a gift from my mom."

Song Huan was silent for two seconds, then said, "I'll make you one later."

Xiao Yunqing raised her head and looked at him.

"real?"

"Of course it's true."

Xiao Yunqing pursed her lips, but her eyes lit up.

He's willing to buy me a new one!

I'm so happy!

Song Huan couldn't help but smile when she heard her thoughts.

"Let's eat, don't overthink it."

Xiao Yunqing blushed and lowered her head to continue eating.

Xu Wan watched this scene from the side, a complex look flashing in her eyes.

[These two children...]

[Never mind, let them be.]

Xiao Haifeng, on the other hand, was quite open-minded.

[Having someone like this take care of Little Cloud seems pretty good.]

[But this kid isn't like Wentao; he's so cunning at such a young age. I doubt he'll be well-behaved when he grows up.]

Upon hearing these two sentences, Song Huan almost spat out her food.
