Little One Tears the Villain’s Script

Digging a Hole (3)

Jiang Xiaoman stepped down from the podium happily after winning the prize and taking photos.

However, while some people were happy, some others were sad.

Jiang Xiaoman was happy, but someone was sobbing miserably.

Zhang Xinhua leaned against the well and wept with an expression as if life had no more meaning.

His round face seemed to reflect the vicissitudes of life.

Jiang Xiaoman and Yu Qingshi looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.

"What's the matter? Were the test results bad?"

Zhang Xinhua shook his head and said, "My score is a little higher than during the midterm exam. It has improved."

"Then that's a good thing." Jiang Xiaoman didn't understand why he was crying.

Zhang Xinhua sobbed, "This time, the test questions were too simple. I have improved, but other children have also improved."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Jiang Xiaoman also felt that the exam questions were much simpler. After thinking about it, maybe the school wanted them to be able to celebrate the New Year happily.

"I only improved by one." Zhang Xinhua continued.

Jiang Xiaoman felt even weirder. "Isn't it a good thing to improve by one? As long as there's an improvement, that's a good thing. Don't worry. You don't have to hurry. You have to eat one bite at a time. This time you improve by one, and next time, you'll improve by two, then you will always progress."

Zhang Xinhua finally burst into tears. "I improved by one, but the second last place didn't improve, so I tied with him for last place."

"..."

Oh.

So that's how it was.

Jiang Xiaoman was really helpless and could only comfort him.

"Don't cry. I just got a prize of fifty yuan. I will treat you to beef noodles."

As soon as she mentioned food, Zhang Xinhua really stopped crying and asked, "Really?"

"Really." Jiang Xiaoman calculated. With fifty yuan, they could eat four bowls of beef noodles with extra beef. "Let's call Ye Jiajia to go together with us."

She was such a nice and generous kid, willing to share.

Back then, she would share her sweets with the other children who didn't have them.

Why was she such a good kid? Sigh, no way about it, that's just how she was.

System: "……"

Its host's narcissism illness was already at a terminal stage. She's still so young, but already beyond saving. That's what the system thought.

Because there was food, Zhang Xinhua's worries about the future were temporarily relieved, and he followed Xiaoman to eat beef noodles.

The shop was still that well-known one not far from the elementary school, and it could be reached after a short walk.

The four children entered the shop carrying their schoolbags and sat down at a table. Jiang Xiaoman said loudly with her childish voice, "Uncle Boss, four beef noodles with extra beef over here!"

The boss still remembered this girl. She often came here to eat in the past two years.

The little girl looked good and had a sweet mouth. The boss liked to add more meat for her every time. The kid was sensible, and after she found it out, she always ordered beef noodles with extra beef every time.

The boss really liked her and added extra beef every time. Add add add.

Hearing what she said, he immediately teased, "Fortunately, it's not four bowls of beef noodles with just beef and no noodles."

Jiang Xiaoman blushed and covered her cheeks.

When the noodles came, the topping was very numerous and packed tightly.

Jiang Xiaoman picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

The other children also started moving their chopsticks. Cheerful slurping sounds filled the air, with the occasional stop to blow the noodles, so they're not too hot.

Yu Qingshi stopped after two bites, a hesitant look on his face.

He wanted to put some of his beef on Xiaoman's bowl because, from his experience, she was really good at eating, especially if it was meat. Even if the boss had taken special care of her, it might not be enough to satisfy her. Every time they came, Yu Qingshi took the initiative to give his own beef, and he naturally got used to it.

But… there were other kids here today, and he was a little… shy.

Waah waah waah! Really shy!

What if they told the others after they went home? What if they looked at him with strange eyes?

Yu Qing was frustrated to death.

A pair of delicate eyebrows wrinkled together.

Xiaoman felt that it was strange that he hadn't moved his chopsticks, so she asked him. "Aren't you hungry? You're such a wastrel. Don't you know that the food on the table, each and every grain came from hard toil? If you're not going to eat, then give them to me."

Jiang Xiaoman gave him a way out, so Yu Qingshi finally stopped being troubled. He became bolder and immediately gave her his beef.

"Here you are, all for you." He put them all into her bowl.

Xiaoman was used to it.

But Zhang Xinhua looked at it in amazement, his round eyes full of envy.

He had a big appetite and ate a lot. This little bit of beef was not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth, but at first, he was content because if he hadn't come to eat with Xiaoman then he wouldn't even have gotten this much beef.

But now, Jiang Xiaoman got the special treatment from the boss and Yu Qingshi, and Zhang Xinhua was very envious.
