The housekeeper was shocked when he arrived at the school – two disheveled children, one with a wound on his face and the other crying. Moreover, their young master was not only injured, but his clothes were also dirty.

But the most surprising thing was that the young master had no temper at all and was still coaxing others with kind words.

The old butler knew that this was not the first time, but he was old after all, and it would take some time for him to accept such a big change.

When Gu Beilu took Yu Xi out of the teacher’s office, the parents were still inside.

Gu Beilu believed that his parents could handle this problem and was not worried at all.

But he was worried about Yu Xi.

Yu Xi did feel a little aggrieved, and was scared when he thought about it. Even the candy in his mouth didn’t taste good anymore.

This was the first time he witnessed a fight between children, and he was terrified. After the fight, Li Yiming had to put on three Band-Aids, and Gu Beilu had to put on one.

To him, this was a major accident scene.

“Yu Xi, it’s okay.” It was the first time that Gu Beilu called his name in such a serious tone.

Yu Xi obviously hadn’t recovered yet, still looking like a frightened little deer. Although he was still scared, he was very obedient. When Gu Beilu said it was okay, he nodded trustingly.

Gu Beilu felt extremely distressed when he saw this, and kept patting his back to comfort him: “It’s okay, Xixi, don’t be afraid.”

There was chaos in the corridor just now. In the office, although mom and dad were there, Li Yiming and his parents were also there. Yu Xi didn’t dare to relax at all and held his breath, ready to fight at any time.

Now that only his best friend was around, Yu Xi felt like a deflated balloon. As soon as he relaxed, tears fell one by one like pearls.

He instinctively reached out for a hug, and Gu Beilu held him in his arms and wiped his tears.

“Be good, Xixi, don’t cry.”

But Yu Xi couldn’t stop crying, and soon a large area of ​​Gu Beilu’s shirt was wet.

The housekeeper was behind him, holding clean clothes. He didn’t dare to disturb him, so he had to use mouth language to ask the young master if he wanted to change clothes.

Gu Beilu frowned tightly, shook his head seriously at the housekeeper, and patted Yu Xi on the back to calm him down.

Yu Xi cried so hard that his whole body became limp, and he nestled into Gu Beilu’s arms like a little kitten.

Gu Beilu bit his back teeth.

I didn’t go easy on that bastard just now.

He actually didn’t see through Li Yiming’s intentions earlier, causing Yu Xi to suffer such injustice.

“Derek.” Yu Xi raised his head and looked at the band-aid on his face while crying, “Does it hurt?… Please don’t fight anymore, okay?”

Fighting must be painful, oooooo…

Yu Xi stretched out his little hand and touched the Band-Aid on his face, his wet eyes full of anxiety.

Gu Beilu grabbed the little white hand that was poking the Band-Aid.

This was the first time Yu Xi was so worried about him.

This fight was worth it.

After that day, Li Yiming’s parents arranged for him to transfer to another school and wrote a written apology letter to the Yu family under the coordination of the school. The head of the grade also went to the Yu family to apologize in person and promised that such things would not happen again.

The Yu family didn’t care about the apology, but they were worried that Yu Xi would be traumatized by it. After all, the child had just integrated into the group.

It hadn’t been long since they started living together when something like this happened. They were afraid that he would never dare to make true friends again.

But after talking with Yu Xi, they were relieved to find that the child was not as fragile as they imagined, and instead he spoke up for Gu Beilu.

Gu Beilu was removed from his position as class monitor because he hit someone. The teacher believed that a class monitor should not take the lead in hitting someone, as it would have a bad influence on other students.

Yu Xi was very sad. He would rather not have all the little red flowers than have Gu Beilu be punished. He wanted to go to the office to find the teacher, but was stopped by Gu Beilu, who said that he didn’t want to be the monitor anymore.

Yu Xi looked at him in surprise: “Why don’t you want to be one?”

In his eyes, being a class monitor is the most powerful thing and only the best students can be that person, and Gu Beilu is the best student.

Gu Beilu thought about it and gave a simple reason: “Being a squad leader is too tiring.”

In fact, he had ten thousand reasons to hate being the class monitor, but there was only one reason why he agreed to accept the position before school started – the class monitor had the privilege of changing seats, so he could move Yu Xi to sit next to him.

Now that his goal has been achieved, he has long wanted to step down.

Of course Yu Xi didn’t know about this, but he looked unusually serious because he realized something.

In this situation, he suddenly remembered that there was such a plot in the original book, and it was a very important node.

He remembered that in the story, Gu Beilu was dismissed from his position as class monitor after a conflict with his classmates. Gu Beilu was a proud child, and he didn’t show it on the surface, but he was deeply hurt in his heart, so he became more alienated from people and was unhappy all day long.

Yu Xi was even more heartbroken when he thought of this. He didn’t expect that he was the trigger that made Gu Beilu more and more withdrawn.

Gu’s father and mother had no objection to the teacher’s decision, and they didn’t care whether their child became a class leader or not. They just went home and told Gu Beilu that beating people was not the solution to the problem.

Gu Beilu retorted: “But the problem has indeed been solved.”

Father Gu taught his son: “If we hadn’t cleaned up the mess for you, do you really think it would be so easy to resolve the matter?”

Gu Beilu nodded in agreement, and then said, “When I grow up, I will take care of the aftermath myself.”

After a series of events such as fighting, dropping out of school, and being removed from class monitor, Gu Beilu discovered that Yu Xi had become more and more attached to him these days, like a little tail, giving him all kinds of cartoon Band-Aids to choose from every day, and even helping him get new ones.

But his wound healed so quickly that he didn’t need to apply the medicine anymore in a few days. He even considered whether to stop applying the medicine and let the wound heal a few days later.

Fortunately, Yu Xi continued to stick to him. When his wound healed, Yu Xi began to care about his happiness again.

In the evening, the two of them did their homework together in the Gu family’s study. Yu Xi would always glance at him from time to time, and when he noticed, he would immediately pretend to read a book.

As cute as a little hamster.

Gu Beilu silently admired the little hamster for a while, and finally when the little hamster peeked at him for the sixth time, he tapped the little hamster on the head with his pen.

“Don’t be distracted. You know how to do this question.”

Yu Xi was not panicked even after being caught. He simply dropped his pencil, moved closer to Gu Beilu, and looked at him seriously.

Gu Beilu felt confused by the look on his face, but he didn’t push the person away.

“What are you looking at?”

Yu Xi stared at him intently and asked him, “Derek, why aren’t you smiling?”

Although Gu Beilu doesn’t smile much normally, ever since he remembered the plot, Yu Xi always felt that Gu Beilu was worried. It must be because the psychological gap of not being the squad leader was too great.

Gu Beilu ruffled Yu Xi’s soft hair and asked, “Why smile while doing homework?”

Yu Xi shook his head: “You don’t smile during the day, and you don’t smile at night. Are you unhappy?”

“Do I have to smile if I’m happy?” Gu Beilu felt that he was quite happy recently because Yu Xi was around him every day. He was happy when Yu Xi was around.

“Of course, if you don’t smile how can others know you are happy?”

Gu Beilu grinned and forced a smile.

Yu Xi was not satisfied and felt that he was perfunctory, but it didn’t matter. He had figured out one thing in the past two days: Gu Beilu might be destined to go through this process, and he wanted to help Gu Beilu find a cure as soon as possible.

Fortunately, he had read the book and knew the method. He just needed to wait a while. During this period, he could only rely on himself to help Gu Beilu.

A few days later, Shen Di brought some “intelligence” to school.

“Friends, I have some latest news about Li Yiming.”

Gu Beilu hated this name the most now. He looked up at Shen Di and said nothing.

When Yu Xi heard the name, he also puffed up his cheeks and got angry.

He didn’t want Shen Di to mention this matter in front of Gu Beilu. Gu Beilu had just been removed from his position as squad leader because of this matter and was very sad.

Shen Di didn’t care. He pulled out a chair and sat in front of them. He said mysteriously across the desk, “You don’t know, everyone in Class 2 is very afraid of him. It turns out that he has been bullying their classmates. Now he has been beaten away by Gu Beilu, and Gu Beilu has become a hero in their class.”

Yu Xi corrected him: “No, he was not beaten away by Gu Beilu.”

Gu Beilu corrected: “I was the one who beat him away.”

It would be best to let Shen Di, the little loudspeaker, shout it out to let the whole school know that he will beat up anyone who dares to bully Yu Xi again.

After school that day, when Gu Beilu and Yu Xi walked out of the classroom, a group of classmates immediately surrounded them.

Gu Beilu cautiously protected Yu Xi behind him. Although these people looked familiar, he didn’t know any of their names.

Yu Xi gently poked his shoulder and whispered, “Derek, this is a student from Class 2.”

He knew several of them, all of whom were in the swimming class.

“Gu Beilu, we are here to give you a little red flower. The students in Class 2 want to thank you.”

One of the students took out a bunch of more than a dozen small red flowers, which were collected by classmates in their class. They were tied together with colorful ribbons and looked very beautiful.

At the end of each semester, the school will let everyone exchange their red flowers for prizes. The more red flowers you have, the bigger the prize you can get. For the first graders who are proud of their red flowers, this is simply a luxurious prize, representing the highest honor for primary school students.

“Please accept it. No one in our class bullies us now, it’s all thanks to you!”

Yu Xi poked his head out from behind Gu Beilu, his eyes sparkling. He must have worked really hard to collect so many little red flowers.

He started collecting red flowers at the beginning of the school year, trying to be a good and obedient student. Sometimes he would be sad the whole day if he didn’t get any red flowers. Although Gu Beilu asked the housekeeper to buy a box for him, he felt differently. The red flowers issued by the school had special meanings and could not be bought.

Seeing that Gu Beilu had no reaction, Yu Xi was afraid that he would refuse, so he quickly pushed him.

“Derek, Derek, hurry up and take it.”

Gu Beilu was reluctant, but thinking how much Yu Xi loved the little red flowers, he had to reach out and take the bouquet and hand it directly to Yu Xi.

Yu Xi happily helped him hold it. With the recognition from his classmates, Gu Beilu should not be so sad, he thought to himself, and replied on behalf of Gu Beilu: “Thank you.”

“You guys, do you have anything else to say?” Gu Beilu felt that the flowers had been picked, but why were these people still blocking the road? He was getting a little impatient.

The student who handed over the flowers turned around and whispered to the others, then turned back and said, “Um… Gu Beilu, we know that you are no longer the monitor of Class 1, but it doesn’t matter. You are still the most powerful, smartest, and bravest student in our hearts. We all listen to you and we will do whatever you ask us to do.”

Yu Xi nodded frantically after hearing this. He couldn’t agree more. Gu Beilu is a super good kid, and the whole world should know it.

Gu Beilu used to hate this kind of group behavior the most, it was annoying and stupid.

But this time he did not refuse directly, but remained silent for a few seconds.

After a few seconds, he said: “Just one thing, if anyone bullies Yu Xi again, tell me first.”
