"...So, this is the reason why the three of you are chasing a gang of little boys and taking more than half of their community?"

Yu Lan, who had just finished spraying with the parents of the little boys who were beaten outside, looked at the three children standing in rows.

Yueming looked the most embarrassed, and the clothes that were torn up were covered in mud.

Yoyo is still the same as before going out, except that because she was running too fast for cheering behind her all the way, she was blown up and stood there in a daze, and she couldn't see any bullying at all.

As for Gu Miaomiao, who ran into the battle on the way out to learn the piano and resolutely ran out of the car to join the battle—

She didn't even know what was going on, so she picked up a small twig on the ground and greeted those little boys who were bullying less.

Gu Miaomiao, a kindergarten girl, certainly couldn't beat the primary school students, but after she let Yue Ming gasp, Yue Ming turned over and punched a child, hitting three or four little boys.

Yoyo, who was watching the fun and didn't think it was a big deal, chased after her with her short legs, and kept cheering for her brother and sister.

- Fighting is wrong though.

——But what my sister did must be right!

Yoyo's firm eyes vividly interpret the literacy of a brainless fan.

"If I can't beat it, I just know that I hide in my mother's arms and cry, which is useless."

Gu Miaomiao glanced at the little boys with big bags standing not far away, and snorted coldly.

Yu Lan: "You are very promising. Now people come to me to ask for medical expenses, and they want me to apologize to them. Otherwise, they will go to the paparazzi and tell the paparazzi that I am bullying others. What do you think?"

Of course Yu Lan wasn't really asking Gu Miaomiao what to do.

After listening to the ins and outs of the matter, she actually felt that Gu Miaomiao and the others did the right thing, but she could not encourage such behavior.

Just when she was about to make a phone call to call Gu Qizhou back to deal with the matter, Aunt Zhang, who went out to buy vegetables, came back.

"……How is this going?"

Aunt Zhang, who went home from shopping for food, was a little dumbfounded when she saw the dark people in the room, and then she looked closely, except for a row of little boys who hung their heads, and the one standing in the middle with her head bowed was Yueming from her family.

Almost without thinking, Aunt Zhang subconsciously took all the faults on Yueming's body.

After all, it was not the first time that Yueming had fought with other children.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, is it our Xiaoming who did it? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we will pay for the medical expenses. What's the matter with you, Xiaoming? Didn't I tell you not to fight, why are you still..."

Just as Yue Ming was about to explain, he heard the woman opposite her say yin and yang:

"Your child may have done it. Not only did they fight alone, but they also took two little girls with them."

Hearing that Yueming was still taking Yoyo and Gu Miaomiao to fight with others, Aunt Zhang's eyes darkened and she almost fainted on the spot.

"You child!"

She didn't wait for Yueming to speak up to defend herself, and slapped Yueming hard on the back.

"Why are you so ignorant!"

Aunt Zhang was in tears and trembling with anger.

Looking at Yueming's wounds, she secretly felt distressed, but what she said was just the opposite.

And this slap completely slapped back all of Yueming's justifications.

"What are you doing? Apologize to others quickly. Look, what are you doing to others?"

Yu Lan didn't expect that Aunt Zhang didn't ask the reason as soon as she came up, so she blamed Yueming first.

Yue Ming is already used to it.

It was like this every time. As long as he fought or argued with others, her mother would always be the first person to ask him to bow his head regardless of the reason.

After the repressed silence, a milky voice sounded.

"No apology!"

Yo Yo anxiously looked at those parents, then at Yu Lan, stomped her feet and said aggrieved:

"They bullied Mianmian! Smashed Mianmian! We were right!"

Aunt Zhang was taken aback.

...why is there still something going on?

Yoyo, who was upset for Yueyue, had a whole lot of truth to say, but she was so angry and anxious that she couldn't come up with a whole stomach of truth.

A group of parents, who were already dissatisfied, had even more opinions.

"what does it mean?"

"How do you teach your children? Or is it a little star, and a little star has this quality?"

"That's right, we must apologize for hitting our children!"

Yoyo yells, "No apology! We're right!"

"My family taught us that if we get beaten, we should fight back. The first one deserves to be beaten. I thought these big brothers didn't have a mother to teach them, so I wanted to teach them for their mothers."

Different from the repeater like a headless fly, Gu Miaomiao seemed much more organized when she opened her mouth:

"I didn't expect them to have a mother too. I'm sorry, I didn't see it."

Gu Miaomiao's attitude was very good, and she bowed very well.

...It's just that this bow is not like an apology, but rather like a funeral for elders who don't know how to educate their children.

Yu Lan couldn't help but want to laugh, but considering his status as an adult, he pursed his lips and pressed the corners of his curved mouth back.

When this child has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, he is quite likable.

However, the mothers who were ruthlessly attacked by Gu Miaomiao didn't think so.

"You—you little girl, what kind of nonsense are you talking about!"

"Don't think we can't hear you scolding us! Where did you learn these things at such a young age!?"

"Is this your Gu family's tutor? I want to expose you! Let everyone see what you celebrities are like!"

Gu Miaomiao rolled her eyes and thought to herself, what kind of shit are you?

"What do you want to expose? Are your children throwing stones at our pets' surveillance?"

She looked at these unreasonable adults and found it funny.

"The last aunt who threatened us like this, now her husband has divorced her, do you know?"

Gu Miaomiao was talking about the one who broke the news about Yu Lan on the Internet and bullied her classmates.

At that time, there was a lot of trouble, and these idle and panic ladies also paid attention to this gossip. When Gu Miaomiao said this, they immediately persuaded a lot.

Aunt Zhang also noticed that these people started to lack confidence and were a little dazed.

So, it was these people who threw stones at Mianmian first, and they were the ones who moved first, so Yueming would fight them?

"...Xiao Ming, did you do it to protect Mianmian and your sisters?"

Aunt Zhang asked tentatively.

Yue Ming remained silent.

On the contrary, Yoyo was afraid that Aunt Zhang would slap her brother again, so she rushed over to block between the two, and looked at Aunt Zhang with tears in her eyes:

"Aunt Zhang, don't kill brother, brother is injured, he will hurt."

The child's small arms couldn't protect the ten-year-old Yueming, but she still tried her best to open her arms to protect Yueming.

"I don't feel pain." Yueming comforted the frightened Yoyo, "I have thick skin, it doesn't matter."

When she heard Yueming say this, her heart was even more sour.

In fact, she didn't mean it that way, she was just worried that Yueming would offend someone they couldn't, and cause him more trouble.

It is not easy for them to gain a foothold in a big city, and if they provoke any powerful and powerful people, all their hard work will be in vain.

So she asked Yue Mingyu to bow her head in advance. Was it her fault?

"I have already called the security department, and he will come with the surveillance video next to Swan Lake today."

After being reminded by Gu Miaomiao, Yu Lan quickly took action.

She hung up the phone with a slight smile, and even gestured for everyone to sit down and talk with a relaxed expression.

"If it's our child who makes the first move, yes, we'll pay for the medical expenses, but if it's your child who is the first to flirt..."

Yu Lan took his chin and pointed at Yueming and Mianmian.

"Medical expenses, psychological expenses and spiritual expenses must be doubled."

"Why double? Didn't our child smash a sheep? It's just a beast, and the little boy smashed it naughty..."

Gu Miaomiao: "that's not what you said when you asked us for compensation just now."

...?

Whose child do you call a beast?

It's not that these ladies in their thirties didn't want to scold them back, but they were all powerful people, and they couldn't bear to scold a six-year-old boy seriously.

...It's weird to say, where did this little girl learn from the film, how can she scold people without swearing?

Yu Lan knocked on the table:

"What are you looking at? You all admit that your children did it first, apologize first and then lose money, otherwise you'll ask your neighbors to come out and criticize the surveillance video together."

Yu Lan's attitude was tough, and the group of people looked at each other and felt that they couldn't afford to lose this person.

So I had to pinch my son, watching my own child who was beaten with a bruised face apologized to the one who beat him, and finally bit his back molars and tore the check and handed it over, asking:

"...Are you satisfied?"

Each person is 50,000 yuan for medical expenses plus mental expenses, a total of 200,000 yuan.

Although Yueming was also injured, he bought some safflower oil at most, and he didn't even need a Band-Aid.

Yu Lan took the check reluctantly handed over and put it into Yueming's pocket.

"Walk slowly without sending."

These noble ladies glared at Yu Lan viciously, their eyes wishing to peel off her young and beautiful skin, but in the end there was nothing they could do about her.

When he was about to leave, someone who really couldn't swallow this breath stabbed a yoyo:

"Little girl, your mother and your sister are so eloquent. If they didn't look alike, I would have thought that your sister was your mother's biological child, and you picked it up from the trash can."

Yo Yo stared blankly at this woman with a malicious expression, she didn't understand much of what she said, and thought she was complimenting Yu Lan and Gu Miaomiao, so she happily agreed:

"Yeah! My mom and sister are super super super - awesome!"

"..."

The woman was almost killed on the spot by Yoyo's innocent expression, and hurriedly threw the door away in anger.

After the outsiders were gone, Yu Lan said to Yue Ming:

"Does it still hurt?"

Yue Ming shook his head.

After all, the injury was to protect her daughter and her pet. Yu Lan carefully confirmed that she was not injured before she nodded and said to Aunt Zhang:

"It's not the child's fault. The security guard looked at the surveillance and said that the other party threw stones first and wanted to bully them, so Xiaoming beat them. Although the beating is wrong, it's not his fault. Don't misunderstand the child."

After listening to the cause and effect of the matter, Aunt Zhang also realized that she was indeed too arbitrary.

"...Xiao Ming..."

Yue Ming didn't look at her, but took out the check in his pocket and returned it to Yu Lan.

"I'm fine, Aunt Yu. It's my job to protect my sister. I don't want the money."

The ten-year-old boy pursed his lips, and there was a sincere light in his eyes.

"You didn't misunderstand me, I'm already very happy and very happy."

As if shocked by the solemn thanks in his eyes, Yu Lan was slightly stunned.

Aunt Zhang, who heard these words, was even more caught off guard, as if she was slapped on the spot by Yueming's simple words, her face was so hot that her heart shrank in pain.

She always felt that although she did not have a lot of money for her children, she had a lot of love.

But under Yu Lan's comparison, she was at a loss again.

Is she really doing the right thing?

If it's true, why does Yueming show such a sad expression?

Aunt Zhang lost her mind all day. After dinner, she took Yoyo and Mianmian to play in the park outside the community, and stared at Yoyo who was squatting on the pedals as a swing.

She and Mianmian squatted on a pedal on one side and swayed, inexplicably happy.

... Yueming seems to have never shown such a smile.

"Auntie."

Noticing that Aunt Zhang was distracted from time to time, Yoyo pulled the corner of her clothes and asked her with puzzled eyes.

Aunt Zhang squatted down: "what's the matter? Did you want to go to the toilet?"

Yoyo shook her head, her little finger poked between her eyebrows.

"Auntie, don't frown, wrinkle, not pretty."

Aunt Zhang listened to the little girl's innocent words and smiled bitterly:

"Yo yo, if only Xiao Ming was as sensible as you."

"Brother Yueming is very sensible!"

Aunt Zhang didn't think so.

If Yueming is really sensible, he should forgive her for being arbitrary, after all, everything she does is for his own good.

Yo Yo tilted his head:

"Sister said that adults deceive children when they are sensible. They just don't like children who make trouble for themselves."

Aunt Zhang was startled when she heard the words.

Although Yoyo doesn't quite understand the deep meaning of the words, but she remembers everything her sister said firmly.

"Sister also said that love is not an excuse, adults should... listen to children!"

She scratched her head, thinking hard.

"It's to listen to the children's heart!"

That's probably what it means!

Although don't quite understand it, it seems that what Aunt Zhang wants to hear should be this!

Aunt Zhang seemed to understand something, but she didn't seem to understand it completely.

After dinner, the children went back to their room and were about to fall asleep. Aunt Zhang accompanied Yu Lan to watch TV shows in the living room.

This is a very popular drama recently, about family education.

"...This character is quite similar to you, Xiao Zhang."

Yu Lan is talking about a single mother in the film who is looking forward to her daughter Chengfeng.

This single mother has good economic conditions and her child is very smart, but she is still strict with her child. Even if the child behaves well, she is stingy with praise.

If it is normal, Aunt Zhang will only substitute this mother, thinking that she is doing the right thing.

But perhaps because of Yoyo's words today, she suddenly calmed down and tried to move from a child's point of view.

The daughter took the second place in the test, and the mother blamed her for why she did so poorly.

My daughter envied her friends who went to summer camp during the summer vacation. She told her daughter, you are different from them, you have to go to the best university.

Under the pressure, the child cut his wrists and committed suicide the day before the college entrance examination.

Aunt Zhang stared blankly, tears streaming down her face.

Because from beginning to end, this mother's choice was no different from hers, and she put even more pressure on Yueming.

She couldn't imagine whether Yueming was the same as this girl, working hard at her request in a docile and sensible way, and at the same time, in the middle of the night, she was so sad that she hugged her pillow and cried.

She suddenly woke up and realized that she couldn't go on like this.

She can't let his Xiaoming, who is also burdened with her heavy love, embark on such a desperate road in the future.

Aunt Zhang suddenly got up.

"I... I went to bed first today, Mrs. Yu, you also go to bed earlier, don't look too late..."

After Yu Lan confirmed that Aunt Zhang knocked on Yueming's door, she calmly picked up the remote control and switched to the movie she usually likes to watch.

Just one night when Aunt Zhang and Yueming had a long talk, Yoyo, who hadn't dreamed late at night for a long time, couldn't sleep well again.

And this time, the dream was different from other dreams.

The raging fire in the dream spread all the way along the mountains, turning the entire sky into a hellish red.

A man in a fitted suit stood on the observation deck, quietly watching the forest engulfed by the fire.

"...Mr. Yueming, the fire has completely burned, and more than ten monsters have been captured, but the figure of the forest lord has not been found..."

His men glanced at the burning fire, sweat dripping from their foreheads.

"Although catching monsters is also very important, if the fire continues to burn, I am afraid it will be difficult to end. Otherwise, we should clear the obstacles and let the fire brigade in..."

"Not in a hurry."

The handsome young man who always greeted people with a smile was calm, watching the terrifying fire in front of him engulfing the entire forest.

"If we don't catch the biggest monster for a day, we can't stop for a day."

There was a smile on his lips, but his eyes were so cold.

"Even if this fire burns up the entire forest, he will be caught at all costs, all for the sake of protecting the safety of mankind."

Monsters shouldn't exist in the world at all.

The peaceful coexistence of humans and monsters is a joke.

His men glanced at him.

Having said that... how much selfishness he wants to use to enter the political world, only he knows.

Immediately afterwards, Yoyo's perspective kept changing, as if she had passed through this terrifying fire, through the depths of an unknown dense forest, and saw a secluded cave that had not been burned by the fire for the time being.

"...The fire is out of control."

At the exit of the cave, a lion with a golden mane stood against the light with a calm voice.

"People outside are coming for me. You can follow me, but the risk is very high. I can also point you to a way. You can escape by yourself, but whether you can escape depends on you."

The girl just woke up, her mind was confused, and it took a while to figure out what was going on.

During the graduation trip, the school took them to the Nagasawa Mountain in C City for camping. She had poor physical strength and slipped down the hillside unexpectedly. She woke up and lay here.

"...You saved me after I slid down the hill from the narrow road?"

"Yes."

She looked at the tall and majestic lion in front of her, and was shocked for a long time before she recovered her voice.

Although... there are indeed urban rumors that there are monsters that can eat people in Nagasawa Mountain, but this is still different from what she saw with her own eyes.

She shrank back in fear.

"You, are you... a monster? This fire outside was... someone set it up to catch you...?"

"That's right."

If it were usually the monsters alone, she would be scared to scream, but now heard that the whole mountain was on fire, and under the impact of successive changes, the monsters were not so bizarre.

Either be eaten by the monster or go with him, the girl quickly made a choice.

"...Okay, I'll go with you."

The golden lion glanced back at her, and after a while, he bent his knees slightly and motioned her to climb up.

For the first time, the girl saw a living and talking lion. She tremblingly climbed up the lion's back, and grasped the mane on his body so that it would not fall off while running.

——The people outside came to arrest him.

——He is a terrifying monster, a species completely different from humans.

The girl got goosebumps.

The lion didn't know what he was thinking with the girl who ran for his life all the way, just when they were lucky enough to pass through the sea of ​​​​fire and prepare to break through the slightly weaker encirclement——

Something unexpected happened.

"...I-I hit him!"

The girl trembled softly with a hint of surprise for the rest of her life.

After throwing a big sharp rock at the lion's head with all his strength, the lion who was under heavy siege was caught in the weak spot, and a narcotic/drunk/gun hit him completely.

The lion fell to the ground.

The lion, which was rushing along the way, inhaled a lot of smoke, and was physically exhausted.

He also didn't guard against the girl lying on top of him, and he didn't even know when she hid such a large stone.

From the girl's point of view, Yoyo stared blankly at the lion that lost its resistance and was dragged away, bound like a beast to be slaughtered.

The man who set fire to the mountain did not know when he heard the news.

"caught you."

The lion was dying.

Yoyo didn't know what they wanted to do, but when she saw the big lion with a beautiful golden hair being dragged away so roughly, her heart was suddenly twitched.

...he looks so sore...

...why hurt him...he saved people, he's not a bad monster, he's a good lion...

But Yoyo couldn't move, and could only watch the lion being thrown into the trunk of the van.

At the last moment when the door was closed, she met the lion's eyes.

Amber-like eyes.

Slowly, disappointedly, closed.

Such intense sadness was clearly conveyed to her without the need for words.

Yoyo stared blankly, only to realize after a while—

He was taken away.

It was she who helped the bad guys who caught him.:,,,
