Chapter 2: Ah, the fickle boy

Ye Chen, in Lin Jingxue's arms, heard the system's words and was instantly dazed.

"System, the medicinal pill you mentioned? Is it just this one lollipop?"

【Host, this system has said many times already, please don't doubt my professionalism; this is precisely that top-grade Qi Refining Pill.】

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen silently slipped that lollipop into his pocket.

At this moment, Lin Jingxue had already brought him to the infirmary.

"Sister Wang, quickly check if this child is sick; just now while I was teaching, a little girl in our class suddenly said he was going to die, but he looks fine, I'm uneasy, so I brought him over to have a look."

Wang Lan heard Lin Jingxue's words, took Ye Chen from her arms, and said, "Alright, I'll check him now."

Wang Lan put on a stethoscope and placed it on Ye Chen's chest.

At the same time, the system's voice sounded again.

【Ding— A person who can use the Hundred Medicines from the Medicine Sect wants to use the host to refine pills; she is holding a terrifying magical artifact and launching an attack on the host. With the host's current pitiful combat strength, they cannot match her in strength— flee quickly!】

Ye Chen heard the system's voice, lifted his head to look at Wang Lan, and chose not to believe the system's words.

How could such a tall, kind-hearted and beautiful Sister Wang Lan possibly be the bad person the system speaks of?

Wang Lan examined him for a while and found Ye Chen's body very healthy, with no problems.

So she told Lin Jingxue, "His health is fine; it's probably just a minor squabble among the children, nothing serious."

"Then that's good."

Lin Jingxue heard Wang Lan say Ye Chen's health had no major issues, and her worried heart relaxed.

"Then I'll take him back to the classroom now; school is almost over, his parents should be arriving soon."

Lin Jingxue said to Wang Lan.

"Okay."

Wang Lan replied with a smile.

Lin Jingxue took Ye Chen out of the infirmary, and before leaving, Ye Chen, who is an "old man," kept staring at Wang Lan's long legs.

However, Wang Lan and Lin Jingxue didn't care about it— who would have thought a child could be a lecherous old man?

Lin Jingxue brought Ye Chen back to the classroom; after returning, the children were no longer crying or fussing.

She approached the female teacher who helps her manage the class, set Ye Chen down, and said to that teacher, "Sorry to trouble you."

"It's fine; since you're back, I'll head out first."

The teacher said.

"Okay."

As Lin Jingxue's words fell, the female teacher turned and left the classroom.

At this moment, seeing Ye Chen return, the children's eyes were full of curiosity.

"Ye Chen, are you alright?"

"Ye Chen Ye Chen, do you know magic? Can you revive the dead?"

"Ye Chen, are you Ultraman? Did Ultraman's father come to save you?"

Chu Feng heard their words and wore a face full of question marks.

"If I say I'm the Emperor Hero, will they believe me?"

Ye Chen complained in his heart.

But at this moment, those children had already surrounded him in a circle; he lacked experience interacting with kids, and facing this situation, he felt somewhat helpless.

Seeing Ye Chen silent, Lin Jingxue thought he had been frightened, so she smiled at the children and said, "Ye Chen is fine, not sick; don't go spreading rumors when you go back."

Lin Jingxue said this because she knows that sometimes these children will turn nothing into something, which often leads to unimaginable consequences.

After Lin Jingxue finished speaking, the children's faces were full of disappointment.

"So he can't do magic after all."

"So he's not Ultraman after all."

……

The children said this and then scattered in all directions.

Ye Chen saw them leave and chose to sit beside Lin Jingxue; for him, being close by was undoubtedly the safest place.

After Ye Chen sat down, he prepared to take out the lollipop An Yu had given him to eat, but before he could pull it out, he saw An Yu walking toward him.

Ye Chen's face instantly showed an expression of shock.

"No, what does this little girl want to do now?"

Ye Chen really didn't want to speak to An Yu, because she had previously cursed him to die, and at that time he had just been reborn.

"Brother Ye Chen, are you alright?"

An Yu's soft, sweet voice sounded, and Ye Chen instantly changed his expression to a smiling face.

"Little sister An Yu, I'm fine."

Ah, boys are just fickle.

"As long as Brother Ye Chen is fine, that's good."

An Yu said this, her face full of innocent smiles.

After An Yu finished speaking, Lin Jingxue suddenly said, "Little friend An Yu, your dad has come to pick you up— hurry along."

"Okay, Teacher Lin."

An Yu obediently nodded; after nodding, she looked at Ye Chen, said goodbye, then bounced out of the classroom, as if the earlier events had completely slipped her mind.

Seeing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but click his tongue.

The children's emotions are like summer weather— changeable at a moment's notice.

At this moment, Lin Jingxue took out her phone, opened a profile picture, Ye Chen leaned over to look, women love gossip the most, and his curiosity rose.

Above the contact person, the note says "best friend."

Ye Chen looked on silently, and Lin Jingxue didn't care either; who would have thought a six-year-old little brat would know so many characters?

So no one stopped Ye Chen from looking at her phone.

Ye Chen kept looking, and their chat content was roughly what had just happened.

"That little friend named An Yu is so cute, I also really want one."

Lin Jingxue had just sent it when the other side replied.

"Wash up and go to sleep; in your dreams you can have anything."

Seeing this message, Lin Jingxue pouted and turned off her phone.

Seeing this, Ye Chen slightly shook his head.

"Teacher Lin, why don't you change your way of thinking?"

"What?" Lin Jingxue heard Ye Chen's words, puzzled; she hadn't realized that Ye Chen had already looked through her and her best friend's chat records.

Ye Chen, seeing this, pretended to be deep and said to Lin Jingxue:

"What's the point of natural birth when you can have your best friend give birth to one for you—how fast would that be?"

After Ye Chen finished speaking, Lin Jingxue looked at him with a shocked face, while Ye Chen still hadn't noticed her expression and continued talking to himself.

"Then you tell your best friend, 'good baby,' and say goodbye to your foster parents."

Lin Jingxue was even more shocked.

Only now did she realize that Ye Chen could read, and he had finished reading her and her close friend's chat from just now.

"Ye Chen, can you read?"

Lin Jingxue's tone carried shock and also a hint of panic.

"Is it strange that I can read?"

Ye Chen didn't understand; perhaps at this moment he also forgot that he was actually a reborn person.

"Not strange; then do you know about this?"

"What?"

As Ye Chen's words fell, he suddenly felt a killing intent.

"Girls' chat records shouldn't be casually looked at."

Ye Chen's eyes suddenly widened.

"It's over, forget this!"

【From an attack by a powerful cultivator who has nurtured a hundred lives, the host is unable to resist; the host shall deal with it themselves; after you die, I will go find the next host.】

"System!!"

"Your grandpa!"

Ye Chen suffered a vicious attack; after leaving kindergarten, his face was all red; this wasn't a hit from Lin Jingxue, but a pinch from her, meant to give Ye Chen a lesson so he wouldn't lightly peek at girls' chat records next time.
