Becoming a life winner from infancy

Xia Nuo stood with her hands clasped behind her back and her head cocked to one side, eyes brimming with curiosity, "You're not falling for You You, are you?"

"Ho, how could that be possible! I am the head of the Young Pioneers, I would never lead the way in puppy love."

"That's true, after all you're only 10 years old, even if I talk about this with you now, you probably wouldn't understand..."

"Don't imagine me to be as foolish as you think, okay..."

Jiang Zhengyi coughed a few times, then handed over the ballpoint pen she had in her hand, passing it to Xia Nuo.

"This..."

"Is it for me?"

Xia Nuo exclaimed in surprise, "It's actually a Milly Rabbit ballpoint pen..."

"You, you don't like it?"

Milly Rabbit is a very old anime cartoon character, and nowadays girls prefer more fashionable and trendy characters, so this character might seem somewhat childish to the average girl.

But Nuo Nuo was no ordinary girl: "I like Milly Rabbit too! Since that's the case... then I'll give you one as well!"

Xia Nuo rummaged through her pencil case and passed a very beautiful and exquisite Milly Rabbit ballpoint pen to Jiang Zhengyi:

Jiang Zhengyi's eyes lit up:

"It's actually the Milly Rabbit Love Heart Rose Red limited edition ballpoint pen that can switch colors, the high-end model!"

Jiang Zhengyi said in amazement, "This one must have cost several hundred, right? It's the super rare type that's really hard to get hold of..."

"No problem, I'll just go to the store and grab another one," Xia Nuo smiled.

Grab another one? Does her family run a stationery store or what?

No wonder all her stationery and ballpoint pens are so fancy...

Her dad owns a supermarket, what a fortunate child she is.

It was a long, long time later, maybe many days later, that Jiang Zhengyi finally understood the terrifying and formidable "Energy" behind the phrase "I'll just go to the store and grab another one" that Xia Nuo mentioned.

"But! According to the fifth rule of the school regulations, elementary students must not show off wealth, so it's not convenient for me to accept such an expensive gift..."

"There's no showing off, I just want to give it to you."

Xia Nuo said with a smile, "Because you gave me a gift after all."

"Actually, that, it was an apology gift..." Jiang Zhengyi said, head bowed, "As the head of the Young Pioneers, I indeed failed to pay attention to the safety of the students immediately, it was my fault."

"I was also at fault," Xia Nuo scratched her head and said with some embarrassment, "I shouldn't have made you cry in public, tarnishing your honorable image as the head of the Young Pioneers of Mei City No.1 Primary School."

Xia Nuo's remarks immediately sparked curiosity among some of the classmates, leaving Jiang Zhengyi speechless:

Huh? Are you apologizing or are you pointing out my faults?!

Never mind... for the sake of Milly Rabbit, I won't stoop to argue with this child.

"Hmm... since you insist on giving it to me, then I'll have to accept it..."

Jiang Zhengyi coughed and then continued seriously, "But this does not mean I am accepting a bribe, if you break the school rules in the future, I'm still not going to let you off the hook!"

"Alright, disciplinary surveillance by Head Jiang is welcome!"

Xia Nuo saluted Jiang Zhengyi as if it were a serious matter.

Jiang Zhengyi tucked the Milly Rabbit pen Xia Nuo gave her into her pocket, then left the classroom and ran to the faraway playground, where she began to admire the pen Xia Nuo gave her, her smile so wide it looked hooked.

Meanwhile, Fang You also asked about Xia Nuo's actions, "You probably liked that pen, too, didn't you? Aren't you going to miss it after giving it to Jiang Zhengyi?"

"Because You You was faking illness, I figured that my anger at Jiang Zhengyi was unjustified... It's alright as a reciprocity for a gift, though."

Xia Nuo sighed with a smile, "And besides, seeing her like that always makes me inadvertently think of our other good friend... so I would still feel bad about bullying her."

"You mean Ling Nai, right..."

"Don't you think that child is very much like Ling Nai? She's just like Ling Nai when she was young!"

"Now that you mention it, there's a bit of that..."
