Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Wow, it seems I really found a treasure. It's been so long since I've had such delicious Chinese food, don't you think, Sister Luna?"

Mai Xiaowen exclaimed in amazement as she ate, and took the opportunity to teach Luna, who was next to her, about some Chinese delicacies.

"It's a pity Zoya isn't here. I haven't had such delicious dumplings in a long time."

As Shen Lan spoke, he took another big dumpling for himself.

"Zhang Hao, why don't you come back with me? My daughter will definitely love your cooking."

"Hey, Roy, how could you poach people right in front of me? Right, Weilong?"

Wei Long remained silent, only quietly adding a third bowl of rice; the Mapo Tofu was just too delicious with rice.

Chapter 6? Military Boxing

After getting to know everyone, Zhang Hao spent a peaceful and relaxing week.

"Good morning, Sister Luna, Sister Xiaowen."

Early in the morning, the two girls saw the white-haired cutie wearing an apron making breakfast for everyone. Every morning, seeing such a good-looking boy making breakfast for them not only satisfied their stomachs but also pleased their eyes. Looking at this scene, Luna and Xiaowen felt particularly happy.

"Good morning, Zhang Hao, thank you for your hard work." Luna replied with a smile, her eyes full of joy.

Xiaowen nodded in agreement, "That's right, that's right, Hao Hao's breakfast is the best."

This week, by absorbing the points contributed by everyone, Zhang Hao also raised his charm value to 95.

The most obvious change is that he has become cuter in appearance. Secondly, there are some minor changes in his body. His height has reached an amazing 1.67 meters (Zhang Hao pointed his foot when measuring his height and was discovered but denied it). His once thin body has become stronger. His fluffy white hair is often attacked by Uluru and Deep Blue. Every time his hair is ruffled, it looks like a chicken coop that has been blown up, which makes everyone laugh.

"The physical examination results are in. Congratulations, Zhang Hao, you are now as healthy as can be."

After getting off the operating table, Roy picked up Zhang Hao and spun him around a few times.

"It's unbelievable. You were severely malnourished before. It's a miracle that you managed to escape from the Tower of Babel to the dam. I really don't know what your body is like."

"Who knows? Maybe it's because I underwent the same kind of transformation as Superman in the Tower of Babel. But that's probably why I didn't choose to return to China. I need to find out about my origins."

Just two days ago, Deep Blue found Zhang Hao.

"Xiao Hao, I regret to inform you that your memory may have indeed been tampered with. GTI investigated the information you mentioned about the places you once lived in China, but the results all proved that there is no such person as you in China."

Hearing these words, Zhang Hao already knew that this memory was not from this world. If he really wanted to investigate, he would probably have to look up Hafk's file to understand him. His combat power was far beyond that of a normal person. Last time he entered that state, he wiped out a well-equipped Hafk guard squad all by himself. The only problem was that he lost consciousness. Last time, he was brought back by Asara's shield soldier's shout. But what if he suddenly broke out again and never woke up again?

"Hey, don't be so discouraged. There's good news. According to the blood sample Roy provided to your country, it's confirmed that you are a pure-blooded Chinese. Your country still welcomes you. So, what's your choice?"

Hearing the news, the others came over. Mai Xiaowen looked at the boy she had treated like a younger brother. Although she was a little reluctant, she thought about Asara's current situation and said...

"Xiao Hao, you should go back. Although there may not be any familiar places there, China is still the safest country in the world, just like you remember. Be good, go back to China. I'll come back to see you whenever I have a vacation."

The others were also discussing it amongst themselves, but the final conclusion was that it was better to go back to China and not be caught in the crossfire here.

"No, I'm not leaving. I want to find my memories here, and I can also help you with logistics."

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Hao's words surprised everyone.

"Xiaohao, don't be silly. It's dangerous here. Be a good girl and go back to China. Xiaowen and I will come to see you when we have time."

Wei Long couldn't understand why his usually well-behaved younger brother had suddenly become rebellious. This was no child's play; there was always danger to his life here, and he didn't want anything to happen to Zhang Hao while he was here.

“I know all of this, Brother Hao, but I can’t let go of those unknown memories from the past 16 years. I have to dig out the secrets that Hafk buried in me.”

Looking at the stubborn boy in front of them, everyone was in a dilemma. They couldn't bear to be harsh with him, but they also didn't want him to stay in this war-torn place.

"If you insist on staying here, it's not impossible. We'll give you some challenging tests. If you can pass our tests within three months, we'll agree to let you stay. What do you think?"

While everyone was still figuring out how to persuade Zhang Hao to go home, Shen Lan offered her opinion directly. Before they could even speak, Zhang Hao agreed.

"Okay, I agree."

So, over the next three months, Zhang Hao will begin to grow in their training until he is able to protect himself in Asara.

"So, Brother Hao, why are you practicing the military boxing style that you learned during military training?"

In an open space, Zhang Hao watched Wei Long practicing standard military boxing with a speechless expression.

"Hey, Xiao Hao, the military boxing you guys practiced during military training was all about following the rules, but when it comes to real combat, don't underestimate this military boxing. You have to use it flexibly to bring out its full potential."

Watching Wei Long teach him, and thinking about the assessment in three months, Zhang Hao also put in his best effort, following Wei Long's movements to learn military boxing.

Not far away, two figures were watching the moving white fur ball.

"Sister Luna, I'll teach him the basics of hacking, what will you teach him?"

Luna smiled mysteriously.

"As for me, I'll teach him shooting and wilderness survival skills. There could be dangers everywhere in Asara, so he needs to learn how to protect himself in the wild and also develop accurate shooting skills, which might come in very handy in the future."

Xiaowen nodded, her eyes full of anticipation. The more she thought about the boy with the same white hair as her, who would sweetly call her "sister" when they were alone, the redder her face became.

"That's true, it's always good to learn more skills. Xiao Hao is a smart kid, maybe he can really pass the test within three months."

At this point, Wei Long had finished teaching military boxing and began correcting Zhang Hao's movements.

"Xiao Hao, pay attention to the power and speed of your punches, as well as your footwork. Be more agile."

Zhang Hao listened intently, practicing again and again. Sweat soaked his clothes, but his eyes grew increasingly determined. He knew that only through three months of arduous training could he get closer to regaining his memories and truly gain a foothold in the war-torn Asara.

"Alright, that's enough for today's boxing. Next up is the classic 5-kilometer run."

Wei Long smiled at Zhang Hao. You know, when he first joined the army, besides eating and sleeping, the most he did was run 5 kilometers.

"Huh? Brother Hao, I've only just recovered. Why are you being so cruel to me?"

Zhang Hao looked at the wicked smile on Wei Long's face and said with a wry smile.

"Hey, you're still young and have a lot of potential. Besides, you need to know that physical strength is also crucial on the battlefield. So, 5 kilometers is just the beginning, Xiao Hao. Go and watch Red Wolf's training sometime. They use 10-kilometer cross-country runs as a warm-up. Of course, that's still too early for you right now."

Wei Long patted Zhang Hao on the shoulder, then kicked Zhang Hao in the butt with a wicked grin.

"Go go go, let's go!"

Chapter 7 Why are you blushing?

"Oh, Xiaowen, I'm exhausted today."

Zhang Hao lay on Mai Xiaowen's bed, playing her latest game console.

"Hmph, you're already complaining about being tired? Why were you so stubborn when I told you to come back to China before?"

As she spoke, Mai Xiaowen brought over a medicated ointment and gently applied it to Zhang Hao's calves and ankles. The fair skin was rubbed raw, revealing a faint red tinge.

"Sigh, I never thought I'd get cramps after running just 5 kilometers. But it's okay, I don't believe it. With my superhuman physical talent, I'll be able to pull Brother Weilong out of his wits in a few days."

Looking at the boy still whining beside her, Mai Xiaowen smiled slightly and shook her head helplessly.

"With your superhuman physical talent, you should focus on improving your basic physical abilities first. As you are now, you can't even outrun me."

Mai Xiaowen gently patted Zhang Hao's leg, causing the boy to wince in pain.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Sister Xiaowen, please stop bothering me, I'm already pitiful enough ('oωo` )"

"Hmph, who told you to be so good at bragging even though you're not capable? Hmm? Why are you still fighting this level? I even applied the medicine for you. Sigh, looks like you're not so good after all."

Mai Xiaowen rolled her eyes defiantly at the person who couldn't even pass the first level of the game console.

"Hmph, I was just distracted by chatting with you. Watch closely, this time I'm serious and I'll pass him 100%."

After being provoked, Zhang Hao, like an enraged kitten, began a new round of challenges amidst Mai Xiaowen's mocking smile.

"Hmm, that's great. The organization hasn't assigned me any missions, no one around me is injured, and I have such a cute little brother with me. If only the war between Asara and Hafk would end, I could take Xiao Hao home with me when peace is restored, and then... Oh dear, why am I thinking about such things again?"

Mai Xiaowen blushed as she glanced at Zhang Hao, who was still diligently working through the game, but her mind was already wandering to outer space. A blush gradually crept onto her fair face.

“Mai Xiaowen, Mai Xiaowen, what are you thinking about? Zhang Hao is still a child. Your thoughts are too dangerous. This is illegal.”

After letting her mind wander for a while, Mai Xiaowen looked back and saw Zhang Hao still making various attempts to pass the level. Seeing his furrowed brows, all the success she had just thought of was forgotten.

"Oh dear, such a cute child, we must start raising him from a young age. In ancient times, people often said that a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body. Hehehe, I'm fine with this too."

"Yes, Xiaowen, look, look! I told you that as long as I'm serious, I can definitely pass the level easily. Hey, Xiaowen, why is your face so red? Are you sick?"

After tireless efforts, Zhang Hao successfully defeated the first boss. He turned around, ready to share his joy with Mai Xiaowen, only to find her staring blankly with a flushed face.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's probably because the room was too hot without the windows open. Haha, you finally passed! Back in the day, I beat this game on my first try!"

Seeing Zhang Hao discover her awkward expression, Mai Xiaowen quickly came up with an excuse. She couldn't very well tell this kid, who hadn't even grown his hair yet, that she'd been eyeing him for a long time and was about to start playing a pet-raising game with him.

"Hmph, that's because you've been bothering me the whole time. Just watch, I'm the man who's known as a video game genius."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao's competitive spirit flared up, and he couldn't help but grumble and complain.

9527 stared speechlessly at the video game prodigy, watching him struggle to defeat the boss with its guiding abilities, and couldn't help but sigh:

"As expected, it doesn't matter whether the host's intelligence is increased or not, no wonder he got so excited when he got the Heart of Africa in his previous life."

"Little Hao Hao, I'm going to take a shower now. It's getting late, you should go to bed early too, you have to learn hacking techniques with me tomorrow!"

Mai Xiaowen shook her head, banishing the strange thoughts from her mind. She glanced at the time and saw it was 10:30. She then spoke to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, Xiaowen, I'll go to sleep after I defeat this boss."

When Mai Xiaowen came out after taking a shower, she only saw the word "failure" displayed in big letters on the game console, while the protagonist who kept saying he wanted to beat the game was already fast asleep on Mai Xiaowen's bed.

"Sigh, you must be exhausted after practicing all day. You even fell asleep halfway through the game."

Mai Xiaowen looked at the little guy collapsed on the bed. The little cutie had fallen asleep in the time it took to take a bath. What she didn't know was that Zhang Hao had already mastered a magical skill back in college: one second he'd be laughing heartily at Douyin (TikTok), the next he'd see his phone lying under the bed, and then hear snoring. Luckily, Zhang Hao slept in the lower bunk; at most, they'd just replace the screen protector. Otherwise, he might have ended up with his phone.

Looking at the white fluffy ball sleeping soundly on the bed, Mai Xiaowen suddenly felt her maternal love overflowing.

"Well, it's so late. Carrying him back to his room might wake him up, and then he won't be able to sleep. I don't want him to doze off during my lecture tomorrow morning. Yes, that's right. So, let's let this little guy have his sleep tonight, let his dear sister take care of him!"

(≧?≦)ゞ

After mentally preparing herself, Mai Xiaowen gently laid Zhang Hao flat on the bed. Looking at the "beauty" in front of her, her heart, which had cooled down during the shower, burned with desire again.

"Hai Claw, are you asleep? Is Xiao Hao in your room? I knocked on his door but no one was inside. Wei Long said he came to your room to play earlier."

Just as Mai Xiaowen was about to snuggle up to the soft, white fluffy ball and go to sleep, Luna's voice came from outside the door, which made Mai Xiaowen experience a moment of utter shock.

She quickly got out of bed, rushed to the door, and her nimble steps made no sound at all (like a mouse hiding behind you). She opened the door and shushed Luna.

"Keep your voice down, Luna. Xiao Hao just fell asleep, don't wake him up. (What if he goes back to sleep if we wake him up? (。o_o))"

After hearing what Mai Xiaowen said, Luna turned her head to look inside and saw a white fur ball lying on the bed, curled up in the quilt with its eyes closed. She then turned back and stared at Mai Xiaowen with a half-smile.
