Translator: 549690339

“Madam Teacher, Madam Teacher, wake up, we’re going to set off firecrackers.”

Xu Chaomu rolled over again. So noisy.

Seeing no response from inside the room, the little brats actually started setting off the firecrackers.

“Crackle crackle crackle” “Crackle crackle crackle,” the sound of firecrackers was deafening.

“Damn it!” Xu Chaomu scratched her head, and with a thud, finally sat up.

Rubbing her groggy eyes, Xu Chaomu really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

But thinking back, she had done the same thing in her time, setting off firecrackers until the headmaster developed a psychological shadow.

What goes around comes around, after all.

Xu Chaomu was wide awake now and could only get out of bed slowly, but she really did want to sleep…

A bunch of little curs.

Outside the window, amidst deafening firecracker noise, Xu Chaomu heard a very pleasant voice, “What are you doing?”

The little rascals immediately giggled and said, “Teacher Nie, the sun’s shining on our butts, and Madam Xu is still not up, so lazy.”

Xu Chaomu recognized that voice in an instant, wasn’t it Tiantian, who she frightened away last night?

Lil’ brat, quite vindictive.

“What Madam Xu.” Nie Chenglang said with a furrowed-brow smile.

Tiantian made a face, “Teacher Nie, isn’t your girlfriend called ‘Madam’?”

Xu Chaomu was even more amused; she had been promoted all of a sudden.

“Have you finished your homework from yesterday? Have you memorized the text? I’ll check it in a bit.” Nie Chenglang asked.

“Teacher, we’re leaving.” A group of little brats instantly ran faster than smoke.

The firecrackers “crackle crackle crackle” soon ended, and Xu Chaomu, clutching her head, sighed, head pounding.

A bunch of annoying little brats.

Nie Chenglang walked over, stepping on spent firecracker remnants, and knocked on the door, “Chaomu, are you awake?”

“Still sleeping.” Xu Chaomu yawned.

“No more sleeping, get up for breakfast.” Nie Chenglang knocked a few more times.

Xu Chaomu’s sleepiness was completely gone; she scratched her head.

The young and old are both so bothersome, wuu wuu wuu.

“Teacher Nie, have mercy.” Xu Chaomu hugged her quilt; she really wanted to keep sleeping…

“Give me a reason.”

“Um…” Xu Chaomu’s eyes rolled around, “This ‘Little Fairy’ bed is so seductive, clinging to me and refusing to let go.”

Nie Chenglang’s face was lined with black strands, “That’s not a good enough reason, get up!”

As Nie Chenglang knocked on her door, Xu Chaomu had no choice but to bite the bullet and get dressed.

When she appeared in front of him, rubbing her eyes, he looked down at her and pulled out a smile, “Wash your face and brush your teeth, then come over for breakfast right away.”

“So annoying.” Xu Chaomu pouted.

As she and Nie Chenglang sat together for breakfast, those little brats popped up again, whispering secretly outside.

“Teacher Nie’s girlfriend is so pretty!”

“No, no, no, not at all, Teacher Nie’s girlfriend is very fierce.”

“Teacher Nie is even putting food on her plate!”

“Because Teacher Nie is afraid of her!”

“But Teacher Nie is smiling!”

“If he doesn’t smile, his girlfriend will eat him up. She’s really fierce.”

Xu Chaomu couldn’t stand it, they spoke as if she was some sort of a demon.

So, she stood up, walked to the door, and with hands on hips: “You, and you, and you, plus you, all of you come here, I promise to beat you to death.”

The little brats hurried away, no one was foolish enough to come straight to the door.

When it came to dealing with little brats, Xu Chaomu was very experienced and skillful!

With one hand, she grabbed one, lifting the two little rascals by their collars and dragged them over.

“Come on, say something nice for big sister to hear.” Xu Chaomu smiled triumphantly.

Humph, trying to fight her.

Eight years ago, she was the unrivaled little tyrant of the orphanage.

“Ow ow ow, wah wah wah, help! Teacher Nie, save us!”

“Wuu wuu wuu, Madam Xu is a wolf.”

“You still dare to talk back? Believe it or not, I’ll throw you onto the rooftop?” Xu Chaomu threatened them.

Nie Chenglang was laughing on the side, enjoying the scene without chiming in.

One of the smarter little brats quickly started kissing up, “Madam Xu, you are as beautiful as a flower, Madam Xu, you are like a fairy from heaven, Madam Xu, you can overthrow cities with your beauty, Madam Xu you… I’ve run out of compliments…”

The little guy had a crestfallen look on his face; he truly had run out of words.

These few phrases were the results of him racking his brains for quite a while.

“That’s more like it. Now, call me ‘sister’ and let me hear it.” Xu Chaomu was smug.

She was confident she could handle them.

But the two little guys glared their eyes out, refusing to call her that.

One of them even muttered, “So fierce, and yet a sister? More like a wolf in grandma’s clothes.”

“Hmm? What did you say?” Xu Chaomu also glared, “You won’t call me that, huh? If you don’t, I’ll throw you onto the rooftop right now.”

Having said that, Xu Chaomu started herding them up the staircase.

“Good sister, pretty sister, sister, sister, you’re the best.” The two little brats immediately pleaded for mercy.

“Hmm? Can’t hear you clearly,” Xu Chaomu said with feigned arrogance.

“Sister, sister, you’re the best, I love you to death.”

“Hmm, that’s more like it.” Only then did Xu Chaomu let go of them.

The two little brats took off running, mumbling as they went.

“We’re doomed, we’re doomed, we lied.”

“Will our noses grow longer tomorrow…”

“Wuwuwu, we didn’t mean to lie.”

Xu Chaomu’s face was covered with black lines as she rolled her eyes in exasperation.

Nie Chenglang was laughing so hard he was bending forward and back, leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed and his long legs slightly crossed.

Against the backlight, when Xu Chaomu turned around, she felt like she was seeing the most beautiful scene in the world.

In the sunlight, the morning dew sparkled, the green tree branches swayed, and the birds flew by chirping. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet – amidst the intermingling light, the man in a gray sweater stood there within the light and shadow.

Xu Chaomu smiled gently; she discovered that time could be so beautiful.

“Come here, let’s have breakfast,” Nie Chenglang called out to her.

Xu Chaomu obediently went over; this man seemed to have a magnet on him.

The two sat together for breakfast, chatting.

“Sir Nie, where does your family come from?”

“From C City.”

“Oh, Sir Nie, how many people are there in your family?”

“My father passed away early; it’s just my mother and me at home.”

“Did you go to see your mother this time you came back?”

“I came back stealthily. If she knew, she wouldn’t let me come to the orphanage to do charity work.”

“Do you have to go back to Paris?”

“Yeah, I still have to continue my studies there.”

“When is your flight?”

“Tomorrow morning at five o’clock.”

Xu Chaomu stopped talking and poked at the white porridge in her bowl with her chopsticks.

The fragrant and delicious white porridge suddenly felt heartbreakingly sad to smell.

Nie Chenglang spoke faintly, “After I’m gone, study well on your own, and don’t run around recklessly. I haven’t asked you yet, where are you living now?”

“Don’t ask,” Xu Chaomu felt inexplicably melancholic.

Her eyes were veiled with a mist of confusion.

Nie Chenglang nodded; if she didn’t want to talk, he wouldn’t ask.

Changing the subject, Nie Chenglang looked at the children in the courtyard, “I’m taking them out for a picnic later. Do you want to come?”

“Of course I’m coming. Sir Nie, you can’t just leave me behind. Otherwise…”

“Otherwise what?” Nie Chenglang raised an eyebrow.

“Otherwise, I’ll cry.”

A twitch appeared at the corner of Nie Chenglang’s mouth, exasperated.

However, just when Xu Chaomu was having unrestrained fun in the orphanage, Shen Chi was nearly turning C City upside down.
