My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Little Crybaby!-Chapter 21: Spooking People in all Seriousness

A day passed, and the bumps on Little Jiang Yuan’s face had indeed faded a bit.

But only a bit. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Her face still looked all red, and because Young Master Xu teased her saying she resembled a green-skinned frog, the little girl stubbornly refused to apply more ointment.

Consequently, her recovery was slower than expected.

By the third day, there were still some red marks on her face.

Young Master Xu nobly declared that he would stay at home to keep her company, so for the past two days, he hadn’t gone to kindergarten.

Lin Wan seriously suspected the kid just wanted to skip school. But thinking that the little rascal would probably just cause trouble at kindergarten anyway, Lin Wan turned a blind eye and tacitly allowed it.

Regrettably, Young Master Xu’s "nobility" lasted only one day. By the second day, he was like a bird caged, yearning for the outside world.

"Hey, Yuan Gun Gun, how about I take you out to play?" Seizing an opportunity when Lin Wan was not around, Young Master Xu grabbed the little girl’s hand and dashed outside.

Little Jiang Yuan hadn’t even realized what was happening before she was pulled out the door. Young Master Xu ran like mad, fearing he would be caught and dragged back halfway. By the time they stopped, they were already at the playground owned by the villa.

This was exactly the time when school let out in the afternoon, and the playground was full of children.

As soon as Young Master Xu appeared, a group of children ran towards him, but on seeing Little Jiang Yuan behind him, they screamed and scattered: "Ah, run, there’s a monster!"

The little girl was stunned.

Young Master Xu, who had just wanted to greet his buddies, was also stunned.

Realizing that he might have caused trouble, Young Master Xu was a bit flustered and urgent. Looking at the silent little girl with her head hung low, he guiltily said, "Don’t listen to them, your face has gotten a lot better."

The little girl pursed her lips, her eyes brimming with tears, clearly not believing what he said.

The little guy, scratching his head in anxiety, didn’t know how to comfort her when the children who had run away came back. They surrounded the little girl, pointing and asking noisily:

"Hey, what’s that on your face? Did mosquitoes bite you? It looks really scary."

"You look like an alien!"

"Hey? Why aren’t you speaking? Are you mute?"

"Maybe she can’t understand what we’re saying?"

"What if she’s really an alien?"

"..."

For the first time surrounded by so many people, the little girl pursed her lips and in a soft, sweet voice said, "I’m not an alien."

"Eh? You’re not mute?"

"You can actually talk!" The kids opened their eyes wide, discussing louder as they pointed at her.

"Are you really not an alien?"

"But your face looks really scary!"

"Do you think she’ll cry when she sees herself in the mirror at night?"

"Ha ha ha..." They laughed and taunted her, circling around.

"No one is allowed to laugh, you’re the weirdos! Whoever laughs again, I’m gonna hit them!" Young Master Xu angrily waved his little fists; Yuan Gun Gun was brought out by him, and if these people bullied Yuan Gun Gun, it meant they were bullying him.

Moreover, if Lin Xiaowan found out that he let Yuan Gun Gun get bullied, she would definitely beat him up again.

Young Master Xu already began to feel an imaginary pain in his bum.

Xu Jiayan, who was just getting off school, thought he heard his foolish brother’s voice, and couldn’t help but pause in his steps.

Just as he was about to step forward, he heard a crisp and soft voice say, "I’m not a monster, I got sick. Mom said talking will spread it, and you all talked to me just now, so you’ll become like me!"

Little Baby was seriously scaring people.
