Dragon Clan: Started by being picked up by Xia Mi, and then defeated the strong

Chapter 13 Wealth and honor, don’t forget each other

"Dating, who, me?" Lu Mingfei pointed at his nose, his eyes dodging, revealing an unconfident look.

"How to change a man? The best way is to fall in love. The sense of responsibility will motivate you to pursue growth, and you will also regain confidence from the nourishment of love." Xia Mo said with a smile.

“But...I..." Lu Mingfei was speechless and lowered his head.

His heart was beating fast, and the figure of a girl in a white dress appeared in his mind. She was so gentle and beautiful, as if bathed in the sunshine among a sea of ​​blooming flowers. He stood in the darkness, stretching out his hand, and it seemed that she was within reach.

But Lu Mingfei was too scared. What was he afraid of?
If your secret crush is exposed in public, will you be criticized and ridiculed from all sides?

Lu Mingfei doesn't care about his face. During the six years he has been fostered in his aunt's home, his way of survival is to abandon his dignity and pride and become a weed. In this way, people won't hate him because green leaves set off flowers.

So is he worried about being rejected by Chen Wenwen? Then we won't even be able to be friends anymore.

That’s right, he and Chen Wenwen are friends, and it was the other party who personally invited him to join the literature club.

Lu Mingfei found a reasonable excuse for his cowardice.

The day Chen Wenwen invited Lu Mingfei was an ordinary afternoon evening. Lu Mingfei was wiping the blackboard with an eraser while Chen Wenwen was sitting on a chair reading a book. After a while, she looked up thoughtfully and asked a question.

Do you want to join the literary club?

Lu Mingfei didn't hesitate at all. He was so happy that his heart was like a soda bomb exploding, and he agreed with a smile.

People have aura. Even if you can't see the facial expression, Xia Mo's intuition tells her that Lu Mingfei has revealed his "lion-like eyes" again. Parentheses: the bell was bitten.

"Who would like someone who is so dejected!" Xia Mo scolded. She grabbed Lu Mingfei's shoulders and shook them, almost slapping him. "You need to act like a man!"

This sentence paraphrases the first godfather scolding his adopted son for crying. Xia Mo does not intend to train Lu Mingfei to be a godfather, but just wants this poor boy to regain the pride that should belong to him.

Lu Mingfei was struck by lightning. He suddenly raised his head and looked directly into Xia Mo's gray eyes. An endless stream of sadness spread from the bottom of his heart.

"Senior sister, hiss, your hands are so strong." Lu Mingfei said in pain.

Isn't Bai Yueguang generally acknowledged to be weak and sickly? Like Xizi and Lin Daiyu, Lu Mingfei almost suspected that he had bumped into Lu Zhishen.

Xia Mo let go of her hand and sighed when she heard that.

"I'm doing this for your own good. You're so disappointing that it makes me angry."

Lu Mingfei was silent for a while. He didn't dare to look into Xia Mo's eyes and said in a muffled voice.

"Senior, why are you so nice to me?"

"Do you want to hear the truth about this?"

"Does it sound good?"

"It depends on your understanding."

"… Let me tell you. To be honest, I am a pig. A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water."

“Haha.” Xia Mo sneered, then looked at Lu Mingfei’s hunched back and slapped him on the back, “Sit up straight and listen!”

“Yes sir!” Lu Mingfei stood straight with his mouth twitching.

"I'm an orphan and I don't know where my parents are." Xia Mo said calmly.

Lu Mingfei tilted his head. He was just talking about his business, but how did the topic jump to the life story of his senior sister?

Lu Mingfei was surprised to find out that the senior schoolmate was an orphan, but then he thought about the fact that she was working, and found it reasonable.

"So, senior sister, you think of me as your younger brother, right?" Lu Mingfei asked tentatively.

Xia Mo shook her head.

“Ah?” Lu Mingfei’s body trembled, his face full of confusion and faint fear, “So you are so old mentally, senior sister. You think of yourself as a mother and I am your son?”

Xia Mo suddenly lost her composure and couldn't help but pat Lu Mingfei on the head, "You need to change your bad habit of talking nonsense!"

“I’m sitting next to a beautiful lady like you, so I’m nervous.” Lu Mingfei covered his head and smiled apologetically, “When I’m nervous, I can’t control my mouth and say some nonsense.”

He no longer believed the boys' comments about Xia Mo. They said that she was delicate and frail, that she was a sweet lady, and that she was pitiful. They were all blind!

Could it be that the senior sister is a humanoid female Tyrannosaurus? Lu Mingfei secretly complained.

Xia Mo rolled her eyes at Lu Mingfei and continued.

"Hey, you kept teasing me and I forgot what we were talking about. Oh, I'm an orphan. I used to live in an orphanage outside Rongcheng. I have autism and I'm afraid of contact with people. Why, is this unbelievable?"

Lu Mingfei had heard how popular Xia Mo was in Shilan Middle School. In just one week, she was loved by teachers and students. It was simply magic. It was hard to believe that she had autism.

"On the one hand, I suffer from loneliness, but on the other hand, I long for friends... Lu Mingfei, the way you shrug your head is like saying, 'I am so lonely, please give me a good friend, thank you.'"

"So I see the shadow of my past in you. I guess someone who has been caught in the rain will hold an umbrella for the next person." Xia Mo smiled.

Lu Mingfei was stunned. He felt very uncomfortable and inexplicably distressed.

I was both touched and scared. I was touched to hear a beautiful girl say "I will help you", but I was scared that I had no virtue or ability, that I was blessed with so little and could not afford it, and that it would be even harder to make up for it. Even if I opened my heart to her, it would be a poor guy's.

"Senior, I..."

"This is a lie."

“Ah?” Hurry up and give me back my feelings! Lu Mingfei roared in his heart.

"There's no need for so many twists and turns," Xia Mo touched her chin and stared at Lu Mingfei. The girl's pupils without highlights now had a huge sense of oppression, which made Lu Mingfei shudder, as if he was seen through. "Do you know about gambling on stones?"

Lu Mingfei nodded.

"When jade is mined, it is covered with a layer of weathered skin, so it is impossible to tell whether the jade is good or not. Only after it is cut can the quality of the jade be known."

"You are a piece of stone now, but you may be a rough jade. When the time is right, you will shine. You may even be a stone that can make up for the sky and become a Monkey King," Xia Mo said with a smile. "My intuition tells me that your potential is unfathomable. You just lack a mentor."

"So, you, the mentor, took a liking to my pony?" Lu Mingfei asked tentatively.

"That's right, just treat it as an investment. If you become rich, don't forget me."

“I’m afraid you’re the only one who thinks I’m a good person.” Lu Mingfei smiled bitterly.

"It's free anyway, so why not try it?" Xia Mo shrugged. "Even if you don't trust me, you have to trust me. My intuition is pretty accurate."

Lu Mingfei hummed, as if he had used up all his strength, and said with determination.

"From now on, I will be Senior Sister's little brother. Apart from other things, running errands is what I am best at!"

"If I accept you as my younger brother, will you give me the boss fee?" Xia Mo asked.

"what?"

"Just kidding. I'm not interested in taking you in as my younger brother. Being the boss is tiring. You're not even a younger brother that I can trust."

"Um…"

"Don't be so depressed. Get stronger quickly, Lu Mingfei. Then I will recognize you as my little brother." Xia Mo said.

"Now, we are senior and junior, do you understand?"

"Yes!" Lu Mingfei felt awe-inspiring.

His back was about to hunch over again, but the burning pain still lingered in his back, so Lu Mingfei straightened his back.

Transformation begins with small good habits.

Xia Mo noticed this and nodded secretly.

[Roaring Monster] Progress +5%
"Speaking of which, who is the little girlfriend you have hidden in your heart?" Xia Mo teased.

"I don't have anyone I like, absolutely not!" Lu Mingfei thought Xia Mo didn't notice.

"You're blushing."

"It's so stuffy in here, the windows aren't even open."

"Am I good to you?"

"it is good."

Only you believed in me and gave me dignity. Lu Mingfei thought to himself that he was actually very happy that Xia Mo greeted him.

"I'm so nice to you, and you lie to me?"

"...Okay, senior sister, the one I like is...Chen Wenwen."

"Speak louder! I can't hear you!"

"I like——Chen Wenwen~~"

After hearing the first half of Lu Mingfei's roar, Xia Mo wanted to say "very good and energetic", but Lu Mingfei was silent about the second half.

"Forget it. It's not easy for you now. Now that you have a target, try to chase it. But you must not act rashly. Wait for me to collect intelligence."

"Okay, Big Sister Xia Mo."

"What the hell is Big Sister?"

“Just thought of it.”

"…You can say whatever you want in private, but what happened today is a secret between us and you are not allowed to talk about it."

"Ok."

"That's good." Xia Mo smiled, and then her temperament returned to the state of Xizi holding her heart, so pitiful that Lu Mingfei was stunned.

After exchanging QQ accounts, Xia Mo took the lead and left the storage room.

Lu Mingfei scratched his head, then looked down at the QQ number written on his palm and smiled, like a silly monkey holding a peach.

A little boy sat on the vaulting horse as the sun set, his toes tapping the ground lightly, silently watching the scene, his golden eyes revealing coldness.

When Xia Mo returned to the group, the basketball game was just coming to an end. Chu Zihang, wearing the red No. 11 jersey, made a three-point shot to end the game, and the scene was filled with cheers.

Chu Zihang was surrounded by a group of girls. He was tall and looked at Xia Mo outside the crowd, his eyes seemed to have something to say.

　The first two chapters were slightly modified, and two missions were added, [Conqueror] and [Roaring Monster]. I only realized this after reading the outline.
