Chapter 3, Accidental Incidents

She walked in, paused to steady her voice, and asked: "Doctor, how is my son..."

The little girl has two ponytails, a fair round face, and eyes like purple grapes, making her incredibly adorable

The boss asked while wrapping the gift paper, "Who is this gift for?"

Tang Xue looked at the spider with surprise, gently touching its back with her fingertip, and said, "I thought it was real, it startled me."

... ...

Mother Li furrowed her brows as she looked at Li Yubing, regardless of whether there was something wrong or not, a mother's heart aches

Such disgusting things are very suitable for grossing out the villains

Li Yubing, you look just like my doll

He ran along the path like a wild horse, panicking and without direction. Teacher Zhao noticed that something was wrong and shouted loudly: "Hey! Li Yubing, Tang Xue, what are you doing? Stop running and come back to me!"

Since we are going to Apple Mountain, we will certainly want to observe the farmers picking apples. Moreover, it is said that if we are obedient enough, we may even have the opportunity to pick apples ourselves

Teacher Zhao led the children on foot to a flat area where the view was expansive, allowing them to see the entire landscape of Luh Lake, making it an excellent spot for lunch

They were all called in their parents as a result

Why are you still applying medicine when there is nothing wrong?

Teacher Zhao said: "I apologize, Li Yubing's mother, it is my negligence for not keeping an eye on the children. They ran too fast, and I had no time to react."

Li Yubing handed the birthday gift to Tang Xue, who eagerly began to unwrap it

At that moment, Li Yubing, who was known for his iron will and never cried despite the pain, suddenly had his eyes well up with tears

... ...

But it is too late

Because I was once drilled in the ear by a caterpillar, it was truly a nightmarish experience

Li Yubing felt that Tang Xue was a bit frightening

After lunch, you may have some free time to engage in activities, but you are not allowed to run too far and must never leave the teacher's sight

Li Yubing expressed a moment of disappointment and asked her: "Aren't you afraid?"

In early November, Tang Xue welcomed her most favorite activity—autumn outing

Then he fell and got stuck in the bushes by the roadside

Teacher Zhao's temples throbbed intensely, prompting a hurried rush over.

"Li Yubing, what do you see this as?" Tang Xue smiled sweetly as she shook her hand at him

Li Yubing was somewhat reluctant, yet could only comply.

"I am not afraid. My mother said that all animals are afraid of people"

The child walked up to Mama Li and stuffed an apple into her hand. The bright red apple was particularly fresh, with a hint of frost on its skin, as if it had just been picked from the tree

Li Yubing's gaze shifted slightly, and he saw her right hand gripping a meaty worm. The worm was as long as a finger and as thick as a finger, with a pale green color and a series of colorful spots on its back. At that moment, the worm was being held upside down, struggling and writhing its plump body.

Li Yubing sat quietly on the grass, observing the scenery around him: the shimmering lake, the hues of the mountains, the flying birds, and the passing boats. This autumn outing was not in vain; he would have to write an essay upon returning.

"Can I not?" he said weakly

Teacher Zhao stood by, watching with a concerned expression

Thus, Li Yubing secretly bought a spider and spent an additional 2 yuan to have the shopkeeper wrap it in gift paper

Oh, is your deskmate male or female

Li Yubing sat for a while when suddenly someone tapped him on the back. He turned his head and saw Tang Xue's smiling face.

Mother Tang straightened her back and glanced apologetically at Mother Li, saying: "I am truly sorry, our child is too mischievous, I apologize to you"

... ... ''

Li Yubing turned a deaf ear.

female

Li Yubing's expression changed dramatically, and he got up and ran away.

Tang Xue's birthday is approaching, and she informed Li Yubing a week in advance, requesting him to prepare a gift

Mother Li, after hearing the ins and outs of the matter, found it particularly unbelievable. On the way home, she said to Li Yubing: "Are you foolish? Giving a girl a birthday gift, and you give her a spider? If you continue like this, you might end up single for life."

However, on that day, he saw fake spiders for sale at the community supermarket. The fake spiders were made of plastic, about the size of a soup bowl, and were very realistic in their dark appearance, sending chills down one's spine.

Mother Li's first reaction was surprise, and her second reaction was warmth. This was her first time meeting Tang Xue's mother; previously, it was Principal Tang who attended the parent-teacher meetings. Since the two children are desk mates, the feeling is naturally closer than that of ordinary classmates' parents, especially since Tang Xue is so adorable

Upon arriving at Lushan, the children chattered incessantly like birds released from their cages. Teacher Zhao, observing the restless little ones, warned: "Follow my instructions, do not run around, there are tigers on the mountain that specifically eat children... Tang Xue, what is the matter with your red scarf?"

"Teacher, I cannot tie it," Tang Xue said

Tang Xue, upon seeing Li Yubing run away, burst into laughter, pinching a bug as she chased after him, saying: "Don't run away, come quickly and see how cute it is!"

Li Yubing pressed his lips together and truthfully replied: "My deskmate"

When he tied the red scarf around her neck, she shook her head and moved around restlessly. Li Yubing impatiently said: "Don't move"

At lunchtime, Tang Xue hung a large spider on Li Yubing's back. The two appeared in the cafeteria, frightening all the little children to tears, and nearly causing a stampede.

Fortunately, Tang Xue did not come to bother him; she was playing and chasing with others

At that moment, the doctor who was applying medicine to Li Yubing suddenly let out a soft laugh and said, "She is feeling guilty. Teacher Zhao, you should go back and interrogate her. This matter is closely related to her. If she dares not tell the truth, you can inform her father."

Mother Li heard that her son was in the hospital and immediately dropped her work to rush over

There was a prick on his face, and I just cleaned it up. Now I am applying some iodine for disinfection. Fortunately, it is autumn, and the child is dressed warmly, so there are no pricks on his body

Just as Mother Li was about to speak, she suddenly noticed a little figure peeking out from behind Teacher Zhao

She ran into the pediatric examination room 1 and saw her son sitting on a chair, with a doctor applying medicine to him using a cotton swab. The doctor was a woman with curly hair, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and while applying the medicine, she said: "If it hurts, just say so, don't hold back"

Li Yubing ran too quickly and did not notice what tripped him. In an instant, he fell out, his small body soaring into the air like a fallen leaf caught by the autumn wind ... Teacher Zhao watched with a heart full of concern ...

He ran too fast, unreasonably fast. Tang Xue felt a bit scared and hurriedly threw away the bug, saying: "I have already thrown it away, so don't run anymore. Look, I have nothing in my hands now!"

Startled you... why don't you jump...

Indeed, he is not afraid of snakes, nor mice, and even cockroaches, but he is afraid of these types of insects

The two were so close that Tang Xue could see Li Yubing's face. His eyelashes were long, resembling two small fans, and his lips were tightly pressed together, giving him a rather serious appearance

Tang Xue suddenly felt an itch in her hands, so she raised her hand and began to rub Li Yubing's face, alternating between the left and right, kneading and pinching, as if playing with dough

Hello, I am her mother

Mother Li breathed a sigh of relief. In her imagined scenario, her son was already close to a corpse, yet now he could still sit well in the chair, what a stroke of luck

He quietly observed her expression from the side, anticipating to see her look of astonishment.

Teacher Zhao explained: "Li Yubing fell down, and she insisted on coming over, no matter how much we tried to make her leave"

Mama Li's heart melted as she bent down to touch her head, smiling and saying: "Tang Xue? What are you doing here? Oh dear, why are your eyes red? Who made you cry? Don't cry, Auntie will help you deal with him"

Then she had them sit down to have lunch

... ...

Mother Tang was amused and replied, "Rest assured, if your son is disfigured, I will offer my daughter to him as a wife."

Tang Xue accidentally untied her red scarf while playing just now. After several unsuccessful attempts to tie it back to its original form, she gave up and casually draped the scarf around her neck, resembling someone who had just come out of a bathhouse

Li Yubing frowned and said, "Stop messing around."

The doctor did not look up, continuing to apply the medicine while saying: "He fell into a thicket of thorns, it's nothing to worry about... Your son has very strong bones; after such a long time, he hasn't uttered a word of pain, nor has he cried or made a fuss. He will definitely achieve great things when he grows up"

Teacher Zhao did not have time to attend to her at the moment, so he assigned Li Yubing: "Li Yubing, please help Tang Xue tie her red scarf."

The boss handed him the wrapped gift and, with a worried expression, reminded him: "Little friend, if you give this to a girl, you might get hit."

Do not speak

Mother Li felt that the doctor's speech was somewhat strange and asked, "Do you know Tang Xue?"

Li Yubing did not want to spend effort celebrating this guy's birthday and originally planned to fold a paper airplane as a birthday gift to get by with her

On the path of countering Tang Xue, he has walked a very arduous journey

Ah? It's nothing, it's nothing. It's quite normal for children to play rough," Mama Li gently patted Tang Xue's little head and looked at Li Yubing with concern. She had a question that worried her, and she cautiously asked, "Um... will our Li Yubing be disfigured? If he has a face full of pockmarks in the future, how will he marry a wife..."

He has truly been unfortunate for a hundred lifetimes, having to tie a red scarf for her and play with her face.

Li Yubing runs faster now

Li Yubing felt downcast, staring blankly out of the car window

This year, their autumn outing destination is set at Lushan in the suburbs. Lushan is adjacent to Luhu Park and is a small hillock covered with many apple trees. In autumn, the entire mountain is adorned with bright red apples, scattered like countless little lanterns, particularly beautiful. Therefore, the locals also refer to Lushan as "Apple Mountain"
