Chapter 401: The First to Admit Defeat
The next evening after school, Rong Si packed his bag early and left the classroom.
Previously, Little Jiu had said that she would walk home together with him from school. Her kindergarten ended earlier than his classes. He could not let her wait, so he quickened his pace.
However, as he arrived downstairs and reached the flowerbed, four boys rushed out and surrounded him. All of them glared at him.
Rong Si frowned when he recognized them as his classmates. He didn’t know what they were going to do, but he knew that something bad was going to happen.
The leader of the group had a crew cut and looked at him from the corner of his eyes. He arrogantly said, “Rong Si, you’re impressive! You got first place in the class and got full marks for every subject? You’ve just joined the school and didn’t attend many classes, right? How did you get first place? Tell me, did you cheat!”
Before Rong Si had joined the school, this boy had always been the oldest and the best student in the class. However, after Rong Si’s arrival, he always ranked below Rong Si. He felt like something that belonged to him had been snatched away. That filled his heart with anger and unwillingness.
So today, he had finally called a few good friends and came here to get this brat’s answer.
Rong Si pursed his lips, his expression cold. “I didn’t.”
“You definitely did! Otherwise, how could you get full marks in the entrance examination? That’s impossible!”
The other three boys did not believe it either. Ever since they had started school, no one had been able to get full marks. However, Rong Si had just started attending. It was unbelievable that he could get full marks in his exams!
“Tell me, did someone reveal the answers to you?”
“That’s right, we don’t believe you can get full marks!”
“Move aside.” Rong Si coldly looked at them, his gaze becoming dangerous.
Seeing that Rong Si wasn’t going to explain to them, the boys got angry. “What if we don’t let you? You have to be honest. Did you cheat?”
“I said, move aside!”
“What’s with your attitude? Do you want to fight?” The leading boy pushed him angrily.
Rong Si was caught off guard and staggered backward. He quickly steadied himself so that he wouldn’t fall. With a dark look in his eyes, he took two steps forward and pushed the boy.
The boy had not expected Rong Si to retaliate. He lost his balance and fell to the ground, groaning.
“You dared to push me? I think you’re really looking for a fight. Fine, let’s fight! Whoever admits defeat first is a dog!” The boy was embarrassed and angry. His eyes were red as he got up and leaped at Rong Si.
Rong Si’s eyes turned cold, and his hands clenched into fists; he was ready to defend himself. But at that moment, a small voice rang out. “Stop!”
The boys stopped and unhappily looked around.
Which young kid would dare interfere in their business?
Hearing that familiar voice, Rong Si was stunned. He looked over as well and saw a little girl dressed in a white down jacket and a red wool cap running toward him. She ran directly in front of him and reached out to him as if she were protecting her child.
“How can you bully others?” the little girl asked. She was facing four boys, who were much taller than her, but she did not lose her imposing manner.
Rong Si looked down at her. This little girl, who only reached his chest, was actually protecting him now. She glared at those boys.
Although boys should not be protected by girls and should instead protect girls, for some reason, Rong Si liked the feeling of being protected by her.
