Shen Zhili bluntly stated, "I can't cry."

Then... the fierce girl on the other side threw a punch.

Caught off guard, Shen Zhili dodged backward, her palm pressing against a thorn, leaving an immediate bloody welt.

What are you doing?

Shen Zhili struggled to her feet: "They..."

Before the last word had even finished, Shen Zhili noticed, her lips twitching, that the women who had been so fierce moments before were now all acting like shy little quails, with some even wiping their dry eyes with their sleeves, looking utterly miserable.

Such a fast change of expression...

Shen Zhili turned around, and as expected, the one who spoke was indeed the Holy Mother Prince, wearing an immaculate moon-white robe, with a gentle smile on his lips, still looking as radiant as ever.

He looked at Shen Zhili and said softly, "Miss Shen, are you able to walk now?"

Shen Zhili: "Yes, thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

The Holy Mother Prince suddenly frowned and said, "Your hand is bleeding!"

Shen Zhili put her hands behind her back and said casually, "It's nothing, I just accidentally fell down."

The Virgin Mary and the prince looked at her with a very strange gaze.

Shen Zhili asked in surprise, "Did I say something wrong?"

The Holy Mother and Prince exclaimed excitedly, "No, no, no, you're absolutely right! I'm just... just suddenly so moved."

Are you crazy, Your Highness?

The Holy Mother Prince said gently, "To be hurt and bullied and still silently endure it without telling anyone, preferring to suffer alone... I suddenly feel my heart beating so fast, what's wrong with me... It feels like someone has stabbed me in the heart..."

Shen Zhili's lips twitched. "I just didn't want to cause trouble, why are you being so dramatic..."

The Holy Mother Prince sincerely said, "...From now on, let me take care of you. I will never let you suffer again!"

Shen Zhili: "Thank you!"

The Holy Mother and Prince: "You're welcome, it's what I should do."

"Should be my ass!"

I knew that person wouldn't be so kind; there isn't a single normal person here!

Shen Zhili took a deep breath, and suddenly seemed to remember something, saying, "Your Highness Xiaoyun, I actually know of an even more tragic woman."

The Holy Mother Prince asked with interest, "How could it be so tragic!?"

Shen Zhili: "After becoming pregnant by a man, she was abandoned and left to raise the child alone in misery. Because the child was sick and she had no money for treatment, the doctor threw her out the door, and in the end, she even had trouble getting enough to eat... The most pitiful thing is that even in this situation, she still didn't hate that man very much!"

The Holy Mother Prince, his face contorted with unbearable pain, exclaimed, "How could there be such a cruel man!"

Shen Zhili: "Exactly!"

The Holy Mother Prince clenched his fist: "Please, you must take me to see that woman!"

Shen Zhili nodded repeatedly, muttering to herself, "They're so easy to fool."

Raikage Side Story: About the existence of Natural Black that surpasses even cheat codes.

one,

It was a warm spring day with flowers in full bloom.

The Raikage will probably never forget that day, the day he met his greatest nemesis.

[Gritting teeth sound]: Su Chenche.

Seven-year-old Lei Ying, dressed in black with black hair and a somber expression, held a sword almost as tall as himself in his hands and followed closely behind the man in black in front of him.

During the six-month selection process, he stood out from thousands of orphans with the highest scores in all assessments and was about to be appointed to undertake the most important task. Such a heavy burden weighed on his shoulders, forcing him to tighten his chubby face, which still had baby fat.

"stop."

Raikage immediately stopped, gripping his sword hilt, poised to strike.

The man in black said, "Look ahead."

Raikage turned his head warily.

Sitting in the flower bushes not far away was a handsome little boy of similar age. He was dressed in pure white clothes, with a bright and cheerful smile. Six small white teeth could be clearly seen from the corners of his mouth, and his amber eyes were clear and transparent. He exuded a clean aura that was hard to look directly at, like a delicate porcelain doll.

The Raikage, his face tense, asked, "Is the mission to kill him?"

The man in black shook his head: "It's harder than killing him."

Raikage frowned slightly: "Should we make him wish he were dead?"

The man in black continued to shake his head: "No!... It's about practicing martial arts with him. But..." He paused, then added emphatically, "No matter how much you want to, you must not kill him during this process."

The Raikage asked, puzzled, "Is this mission difficult?"

Just then, the instructor, who had always been ruthless and cold-blooded like an iceberg in the eyes of the Raikage, revealed for the first time a sorrowful expression of unbearable memories.

He gazed into the distance and said softly, "...You'll understand soon enough."

two,

Beside the flower bushes.

The little boy smiled and asked, "Your name is Raikage?"

Raikage nodded.

The little boy tilted his head and asked, soft strands of hair covering his forehead, casting a gentle shadow: "Aying, will you be the one to practice martial arts with me from now on?"

Although Raikage felt a little awkward being called that by a nickname by someone he was meeting for the first time, he still nodded.

"My name is Su Chenche." The little boy was still smiling, his white baby teeth flashing, and he reached out his hand to him: "Come on, let's shake hands!"

His smile was as warm as the winter sun, seeping into people's hearts little by little.

Lei Ying unconsciously reached out his sword-wielding hand and grasped Su Chenche's small hand.

It's so small, soft, and warm, with a slightly sticky and sweet feeling.

So this is what it feels like to shake hands with someone...

The Raikage thought cautiously.

You can't use too much force, or you might crush his hand.

Withdrawing his hand, Su Chenche turned away and went back to his work, ignoring him for a while.

Although more mature than his peers, Raikage was still just a child and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you doing?"

Su Chenche didn't even turn his head: "Play with toys."

Raikage: "What toy?"

Su Chenche: "Wait a minute... Ah, it's done."

Then Lei Ying saw Su Chenche grab something and stab it hard before running away and disappearing.

Raikage: "???"

As soon as he stood up, Raikage turned his head and saw a dense swarm of bees rushing towards him, and his vision went black.

When I woke up again, I was lying in a clinic, and my whole body ached.

Seeing that he had woken up, the old doctor sighed as he arranged the medicinal herbs, "...He's still just a child, little Lei Ying. You don't know you can't stir up a hornet's nest."

Raikage opened his mouth, only to find his cheeks bulging and he couldn't speak. He touched them and found that both his hands and his face were swollen like balls.

He was terrified and could only shake his head frantically.

The old doctor said, "Stop denying it. You still have the honey you took out of your hand. If it weren't for that, you wouldn't have been stung so badly."

...Su Chenche! Hold his hand!!!

The next morning, Su Chenche stood in front of him unharmed, holding a spherical object.

The Raikage turned his head away, refusing to look at him.

Su Chenche pouted, looking aggrieved: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to get stung so badly... I thought you would definitely run away with me."

The Raikage turned around angrily: "#%￥#%……￥" [Translation: Will I even have time to run?!]

Su Chenche held out the object in his hand, his expression almost tearful: "How about you play with this?"

Raikage stared intently... What is this? It looks like a yellowish thing with a hole inside...

Before he could get a good look, a wasp floated out from inside, aimed at Raikage's forehead, and pressed down with its tail.

The Raikage's vision went black, and he rolled over again.

Before he fainted, Raikage had only one thought in his mind: Let me kill this bastard!

three,

Several months after Raikage recovered from his injury.

Su Chenche: "Aying, Aying, shall we go out and play?"

Raikage: "..."

Su Chenche's face fell: "Are you still angry with me?"

Raikage: "...No."

Su Chenche smiled brightly: "That's good, let's go out and have some fun!"

Raikage pondered. If he went out, although he couldn't kill him, he could sneak up on him on the way and give him a good beating.

Seeing Su Chenche's innocent smile, completely oblivious, Lei Ying curled one corner of his lips into a sinister smile.

The streets were crowded with people and vendors.

Su Chenche looked around excitedly, touching everything, while Lei Ying followed closely behind him with a gloomy expression.

"Auntie, what is this?" "It's just a little thing, it's worthless, take it."

"Hey, pretty sister, I've never seen this before!" "Little brother, if you like it, take one."

"This looks delicious." "Young master, please have two to try. If you like them, come back for more next time."

Before long, Su Chenche's arms were filled with clay figurines, candied hawthorns, windmills, candied fruit, red dates, duck necks, and other miscellaneous things. He stopped walking and suddenly turned to look at Lei Ying.
