Chapter 282 - 282 Good Fortune
282 Good Fortune
Little Sweetcake returned to her seat.
There was still a small piece of candy in her mouth. As she moved the lump in her pink cheeks, she looked like a squirrel stealing a pinecone.
Bun took out a handkerchief and wiped the icing on her hand. “Hurry up and finish the candy. When the teacher comes later, you can’t eat it anymore.”
“Okay, Sweetcake got it.”
The packrat blinked her big black eyes and nodded vigorously. She was obedient and soft.
Bun helped her prepare the books, brushes, and ink before returning to his seat.
Unexpectedly, just as he sat down…
The ground shook violently. At that moment, the entire house shook as well. The huge wooden beam supporting the roof smashed down on the children sitting in the house.
Just as the children were frightened by this sudden change and froze on the spot, a small pink figure appeared in front of them. It was Mo Yunnian.
The little ball raised her lotus root-like arm and swung her little fist, sending the big wooden beam flying.
“Don’t be afraid. Sweetcake is very strong. She won’t let the broken wood hit you.”
Although the little packrat was only three and a half years old, she was very brave. At this moment, in the face of this change, she was even calmer than those older children.
No matter how the ground shook, the little packrat puffed up its chest and pushed a few tables together to let the children hide under them.
“Quickly, come over. Hide under the table and don’t run around… Be careful not to be hit in the head by the bad guy’s wooden block and become a little fool…”
Seeing that a child was running around the house in fear, the little packrat’s voice carried a trace of anxiety.
Bun ran over and frowned. “Sweetcake… what are you doing?”
“Brother, Sweetcake is protecting everyone!” The little packrat said seriously with her big black eyes.
With such a huge commotion, the secret guards outside and Yun Ran, Xuanyuan Yu, and the others in the pavilion were naturally alarmed.
“It’s an earthquake!” Xuanyuan Yu shouted nervously.
“Earthquake? Earthquake!” Yun Ran quickly came back to her senses. The two of them ran towards the school where the two little packrats were.
However, when they arrived, the house had already collapsed and was deformed. The roof was pressed down, and they could hear the cries of the children inside.
The secret guards all gathered together. Whether it was the people from the Yuan Mansion or Xuanyuan Yu’s people, they were all pulling at the bricks and broken wood piled up.
“Miss Yun Ran, the two young masters are still inside. They didn’t manage to escape.”
Yun Ran told herself not to panic. Bun and Sweetcake were blessed by the heavens. They would definitely be fine.
However, under such circumstances, she could not completely convince herself to calm down.
She could only stabilize her voice as much as possible. “Be careful when you move these bricks and wood. Don’t cause another collapse.”
With that, the two of them joined in. Moving quickly, but carefully, they shifted the bricks and wood away.
Because there were a lot of people, the bricks and wood piled up were quickly moved away.
Everyone saw a small pink figure standing on the table. She had one hand on her waist, and the other was raised high, holding a huge wooden beam. Her mouth was still stuffed with unfinished candy, and her pink cheeks were moving.
