Chapter 172

Your Grandma Has Not Beaten You for Three Days (2)

Yu Qingshi’s pale face became red again.

He patted his cheek and said, “Then, then I can’t let you protect me for nothing in return… How about… how about I accompany you with your studies, and you also accompany me with my studies?”

“You’re also attending a hobby class?”

“It’s not a hobby class.” Yu Qingshi lowered his head and said, “My Dad hired a bunch of tutors for me, and I have to study a lot everyday. I will come to hobby class with you after school, and you can come study with me when we go home, how about it?”

Jiang Xiaoman scratched her head.

She thought about it for a while, then nodded and said, “Okay.”

So the two settled the matter happily.

Yu Qingshi could finally smile.

In the following days, the children had adapted well to this new arrangement.

When Yu Qingshi came to accompany Xiaoman to the hobby class, he was just going through the motions. He would run a few laps and stretch his feet just to help keep himself fit.

Jiang Xiaoman practiced having an English conversation with Yu Qingshi’s English teacher.

The language teacher was a foreign student with an authentic London accent. He had blonde hair and blue eyes. Xiaoman thought that he looked exotic and pretty.

When she saw him for the first time, she told Grandma that she wanted to dye her hair blonde when she got back home. As a result, she almost got beaten again.

Xiaoman felt particularly wronged and upset.

She didn’t insist on dying her hair, she just thought it was novel and would be fun.

But after being scolded and almost beaten again by Grandma, she felt rebellious.

When she came to hobby class that day, she kicked the small punching bag multiple times. Pow! Bang! Pow! Yu Qingshi was scared when he saw her.

He asked her. “What’s wrong? Did Grandma beat you again?”

Xiaoman’s eyes were red, feeling very aggrieved. “How did you know?”

“…It’s been three days since you were last beaten.”

Jiang Xiaoman sat down cross-legged in anger.  After thinking for a moment, she said, “She’s too domineering! Back when we were in the village, she didn’t beat me every day! What did I even do wrong for her to treat me like this? Grandma doesn’t love me anymore!”

Yu Qingshi sat next to her and tried to figure out a solution together.

“By back then, you mean when you were three years old?”

“Yes.”

Yu Qingshi didn’t remember much about when he was three years old, but his memories of Jiang Xiaoman were still fresh.

He said, “I don’t know what your life was like back then, but I don’t think your grandma is an unreasonable person.”

“She is obviously very fierce!”

“She never beat me…” Yu Qingshi said implicitly. “Maybe, your grandma likes a child who is quieter?”

“…” Jiang Xiaoman went silent because she suddenly realized that what Yu Qingshi was saying might be true.

Back when she was in the village, she had no friends to talk with. There weren’t that many things to do or novel things to see everyday.

Her only friend was the system, and only it understood her and played with her. She also liked playing and chatting with the system.

But to chat with the system, she only needed to talk in her head… Looking from this point of view, of course she seemed very quiet.

Before the system appeared, she could chat with the pigs at home all day.

Sigh.

Jiang Xiaoman almost burst into tears, covering her mouth with her hands. “But, I can’t control my mouth. Wuu wuu wuu…”

She was really too miserable.

“It’s okay. If your grandma tries to beat you in the future, you can call me. I will come find you and she won’t beat you.”

“But you might not hear it when I call you.”

“Then be a little louder.”

“But you might not make it in time.”

“I will.”

Jiang Xiaoman thought for a while and said, “Then let’s do it this way. What if we secretly dig out a doggy hole on the wall between our houses? You can come faster if you go through the hole.”

“…” Yu Qingshi glared at her angrily. “Why don’t you just take the beating!”

He didn’t want to care about Jiang Xiaoman anymore.

He was obviously trying so hard to give her advice and ideas all the time, but her mind always drifted off to weird directions.

He didn’t want to go through a dog hole!

Losing her military advisor and friend who seemingly didn’t care about her anymore, Jiang Xiaoman felt a little guilty and sad. She clasped her hands together and kept thinking until she had figured out a way to coax him back.

In order to coax her good friend back, Jiang Xiaoman played with her fingers as she said, “I was just joking, don’t be angry. I have a plan tonight at home, do you want to come?”

Yu Qingshi was not the kind of person who sulked for a long time; his temper came and left quickly.

As soon as Jiang Xiaoman came to coax him, he forgot about his anger.

“Okay.”

So the two children reconciled again.

After returning home, Yu Qingshi found out what Jiang Xiaoman’s plan was.

She was still obsessed with blonde hair, and she wanted to rebel right now. So, she borrowed Yu Qingshi’s yellow paint.

Of course, she was not dying her own hair.

She invited Yu Qingshi along with her, and the two of them dyed Fragrance blonde.

The paint was harmless to the skin, but after the pig was dyed blonde…

Jiang Xiaoman really did get a beating, and Yu Qingshi almost got one too.
