Chapter 46: Xiao Xiao Encounters a "Stalker"

  A new week has begun, and Xiao's "Golden Lion King" hairstyle has turned into a messy clear noodle shape, still sticking to her head as usual.

  However, due to the weekend ice rink incident, Xiao and Li seem to have gotten closer, with Li even going so far as to copy Xiao's math homework. Xiao didn't mind, but I did notice that Huan Gege has been in a bad mood lately, especially when Xiao is enthusiastically talking to Li, haha, his face would be pulled long, like someone owed him money or something.

  I'm actually looking forward to it with a mindset of watching a good show, after all, in her previous life, Xiao Xiao cried so much for Gege that I felt sorry for her. This time is one report and another report. Speaking of which, I won't remind Xiao Xiao to keep a distance from Li Fang for now. If Xiao Xiao knows that Gege cares about her, I hope she will keep a distance from other boys. I think this silly girl will immediately clarify the boundaries with Li Fang, clearer than a small onion and tofu.

  Just then, Xiao Xiao suddenly ran over and said: "Xiao Xiao, I heard Li Fang say that we will have an autumn outing in another week. However, the painful thing is that after the autumn outing, it's the mid-term exam."

  My deskmate Shu Tengteng heard the news and came over to ask: "Is it true or not? But do you know where to go?"

  Xiao Xiao patted her forehead and said: "I don't know, as soon as I heard that we were going on an autumn outing, I immediately came to tell Xiao. Hehehe, I'll go ask Li Fang again, you guys wait a bit."

  Suddenly, Xiao Xiao ran over and said: "I heard that this time we're going to two places, one is the Botanical Garden, and the other is the Youth Science Museum. I don't want to go to the Botanical Garden, what's the point of looking at plants? It's better to just go to the science museum."

  I heard about these two places, and I think they're okay. The botanical garden isn't as bad as you think it is. I heard that the Peacock Garden Expo is being held there this time. We can see many plants that we don't usually get to see. And the botanical garden isn't just about plants, it also has some simple amusement facilities. The science museum is huge and has a lot of fun games. When the time comes, you have to stick with the group, or you'll get lost like last time. It's not just a matter of the front door and back door that got you confused.

  "Hey, don't bring up other people's embarrassing moments, we're not that different, you're also not very sensitive about directions, it's just that you're good at asking for directions. But you know a lot, have you been there before?"

  I've been there before, but does it count if I went before my rebirth? I've always had a childlike heart. I remember in college, because I was a local, my dormitory classmates asked me to recommend fun places, and I took them to the Youth Science and Technology Museum. They gave me quite a few white eyes, saying they really didn't know whether to call me silly or having a childlike innocence.

  "No, I saw it in the newspaper, you should read Yangzi Evening News more often, there's a lot of new information on it."

  "Oh, although I said that, but the newspaper our family subscribed to, I only take a look at the composition column, and it's must-read every issue of Bath Fire Crystal's serialized story, it's quite entertaining. From now on, I'll also pay attention to other news, like Xiao Xiao, who knows a lot."

  Xiao Xiao had just finished speaking when Li Fang shouted: "Xiao Xiao, come over here for a moment, I have something to ask you?"

  "Oh, I'm quite expensive. Getting me to do things comes with a price." Hehe, indeed, those who are close to vermilion become red and those who are close to ink become black. Xiao Xiao is truly worthy of being my sworn sister, and my little money-loving apron strings have been officially passed down to her.

  I heard Xiong Ge walking by and rolling his eyes, saying in a low voice: "What's the point of getting so close to that Li Fang guy? What's good about him? He can only skate, I've started learning too, it's not that hard. Sooner or later, I'll show you that I'm better than him." Haha, this jealousy is really something!

  The next day, after morning reading class, Xiao Xiao hastily ran to my seat and whispered in my ear: "Xiao Xiao, I...I...think I was followed yesterday. At first, I walked slowly and picked some sunflowers along the way. But then an aunt from a nearby courtyard greeted me, and when I stopped, I saw someone following me out of the corner of my eye. When I turned around, the person disappeared, so I thought it was just my imagination. However, as I continued walking, I felt like someone was still following me. The faster I walked, the faster they followed. When I turned to look back, there was no one there. So I quickly ran home, and nothing else happened after that. What should I do? I told my dad and mom about it, but they didn't believe me, saying I'd been watching too much TV and was being paranoid. This morning, I kept bothering them, and my mom even sent me to school today. But she has something to do this afternoon and can't pick me up. What should I do? Xiao Xiao, will you walk home with me?"

  When I heard this, my first reaction was to think of a memoir by a Chinese transvestite that I once read in the newspaper. He recounted his sad experiences as a child when he was kidnapped and sold to Thailand where he was forced to become a transvestite.

  This group of people has taken a liking to Xiao? But thinking again, no way, Xiao is a lovely little girl, what kind of person is this, there was no such thing before rebirth. I pulled up Xiao's hand and comforted her saying: "Alright, no problem, I'll send you home."

  I'd say what kind of person is this, yesterday I went to deliver samples for my mom and didn't walk with Xiao Xiao together, otherwise there might have been some clues left behind.

  After school in the afternoon, I sent Xiaoxiao home, but nothing was out of the ordinary. Xiaoxiao said with a sigh: "Is it really just my imagination? Okay, Xiaoxiao, sorry to trouble you." I smiled and said: "What's our relationship, saying sorry is being too polite."

  But on the third day, after reading in the morning, Xiao told me that someone was following her home from school at night. It turned out that this person had a special liking for following Xiao after school. What a pervert stalker! I comforted her by saying that I would like to meet this stalker tonight.

  At noon, I went home and prepared a bit, bringing spray and a toy hammer. In the afternoon after school, Xiaoxiao and I walked home together. My cousin said he wanted to accompany us, but I was afraid of startling the snake and refused. My cousin said then he would be the mantis in front and the canary in back, and both Xiaoxiao and I burst out laughing.

  After walking for a while, I clearly felt that Xiaoxiao was telling the truth. There really was a stalker. However, when I quickly turned my head back, I saw a shadow that didn't seem to be an adult. Could it be some young hoodlums from society who had no money and wanted to rob us of some cash?

  Xiaoxiao and I didn't go out of the big courtyard today, but instead went through the small one and hid in the alley to see who it was. As a result, when we poked our heads out to take a look, it turned out to be Li Fang.

  Li Fang looked worried and rubbed his head, saying: "Lost again, I remember she didn't leave from here yesterday?"

  I suddenly jumped out and said loudly: "Li Fang, you have nothing to do, are you bored after eating? I thought there was a stalker following me. It turned out to be you, confess honestly, what were you doing following Xiao Xiao for the past three days?"

  Li Fang retorted, "I'm not a stalker, this road isn't yours, you can walk on it but I'm not allowed to?"

  Xiao Xiao said with a huff: "Li Fang, it seems like your home is at the west gate, why are you taking this route if you have nothing to do?"

  I continued: "Right, scared our beautiful and lovely Xiao Xiao, you'd better stop making excuses or you'll have to pay for spiritual damages."

  Li Fang said: "Actually... actually nothing, just... just... I'll say it out loud, don't hit me."

  I pretended to be fierce and said: "Speak up quickly, otherwise you'll be guilty of another crime." Xiao Xiao echoed: "Right, guilty of another crime."

  Li Fang touched his head, which looked small but had a lot of evil ideas, and said: "It was because I lost the bet that they punished me to follow a girl home for a week. I don't know how they came up with my name to follow XiaoXiao, anyway, I must not be discovered, so I dodged left and right. If I get caught, I'll have to write love letters to others."

  I and Xiao Xiao chimed in unison "Oh oh oh, so that's how it is. It seems like you were the one a few days ago too."

  "Right, right, but can we make a deal? Don't let others know, or else... Just pretend you don't know, okay?"

  Xiao Xiao laughed eerily and said, "Alright, what's not alright about it?" "Then that's great, just get it over with by the end of this week." "However, I've been scared these past few days, so you should at least give me some consolation. I want to eat Wangji duck blood noodles and Liji stinky tofu, you take care of it. If not, I'll..."

  "Eh eh, big sister, we're classmates after all, don't be like this. If I have to satisfy you, I'm afraid my weekly allowance will be gone just like that."

  I smiled and said, "What's the shouting about? Those who see it have a share in it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have kept your secret." Li Fang nodded resignedly and said, "You two are really a good pair of sisters, you're really birds of a feather." Our eyes lit up, and he immediately changed his words: "No, no, no, let's just say you're like-minded."

  The stalking incident has finally come to an end, and Xiao is no longer worried. Moreover, she even got some compensation out of it, which suits her just fine. Actually, Li Fang isn't a bad person; he's just a bit mischievous and doesn't have any ill intentions towards others.
