3. There is no one worth making friends with in school.

…………

After returning to the orphanage from school, Su Cheng charged his mobile phone immediately.

This phone was a luxury model designed for women a few years ago. But now is the era of smart phones, and this phone has become an outdated ancient product.

Although it looked well-maintained, he guessed that this phone had been used by Gu Ruoxue for about four or five years.

Moreover, this phone smells very good, it has the same fresh and elegant scent as Gu Ruoxue.

Do not believe?

then--

Pervert Orange picked up the phone and put it to his nose and sniffed it.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

He exclaimed in ecstasy. Since he had finished his homework during evening self-study and had nothing to do at this time, he went to visit Sister Xue's house next door and play games with her.

It's a game console that you can play with a Subor card.

The two chatted while playing.

"By the way, Sister Xue, have you ever thought about selling handicrafts?"

Su Cheng asked casually while holding the game controller.

“Selling handicrafts?”

Sister Xue was slightly stunned, then shook her head and said, "My current level is not up to the standard of selling handicrafts. I have been watching TV these days to learn color matching. I still have a long way to go."

"I see. But I feel like it's pretty impressive."

Su Cheng scratched his head, then said, "Sister Xue, can you make some keychains with pandas or cats? I can sell them to my classmates first."

"no!"

Sister Xue refused without hesitation: "You should study hard and don't think about those messy things. You should spend more time on studying now instead of buying and selling things to make money. Do you understand?"

"Oh, it won't affect my studies."

Su Cheng was unconvinced and said, "Besides, we can sell it at a lower price, and doesn't this also allow you to gain experience in advance?"

"You can do it."

Sister Xue put down the game controller and said seriously, "But you are not allowed to collect money."

After hearing this, Su Cheng nodded, indicating that he understood, although he would not sell it for money.

But he would lie and say he had given it away, and then my classmates would insist on giving me money, and if I refused, they would beat me. In the end, he would pretend to have no choice but to give the money to Sister Xue.

Seeing that Su Cheng agreed, Sister Xue showed a satisfied expression, and the two continued to play the game.

...............

Night, nine o'clock.

Su Cheng returned to his room and prepared to go to bed.

He had just washed his legs and was wiping his feet when the bed suddenly sank, scaring him so much that he almost jumped up.

Just because——

The system prompt sound, which had not sounded for two and a half days, sounded again.

【Ding--】

[Side mission has been triggered]

【Help each other】

[Target: Gu Ruoxue]

【Coordinate: 1060m】

[System: Work hard for your friends' safety, and fight for your friends' well-being. Please stand side by side with your friends and overcome the difficulties together.]

[Task reward: unknown. 】

[Failure penalty: unknown.]

........................

Seeing this task, Su Cheng did not hesitate at all. He immediately put on his slippers and rushed to the coordinates given by the system.

Completely ignoring the questions from other people in the welfare home, the constant stream of vehicles on the road, and the strange looks from the people around him, he even threw off his shoes because his slippers would affect his speed, and ran barefoot towards the coordinates given by the system.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Stop, you little bastard. Are you going to die?"

"Come back here!"

Although he did not think too much about the system task, he simply knew from the literal meaning that Gu Ruoxue was in danger, so he did not care so much. The scolding on the road could not keep up with his running speed.

Even if he heard it, he didn't care.

Because, he's here!

This is the entrance to an alley.

A shabby alley was dark and empty.

At this time, the dim light from the yellow light bulb illuminated the alley which was more than two meters wide. At the end of the alley, there were faint sounds of dogs barking and cats whimpering.

Su Cheng quickened his pace and soon arrived at the entrance of the alley.

However, his face froze instantly.

Because the image of Gu Ruoxue as a "perfect superman" in her mind has completely disappeared.

Gu Ruoxue was seen holding a Mediterranean cat in her arms in the alley, and in front of her were two wild dogs, one black and one white.

The dog seemed to be very interested in the cat in her arms and kept approaching Gu Ruoxue. Every time the dog took a step forward, she would step back in fear. The Mediterranean in her arms seemed to want to fight with the dog, but she held on to it tightly.

Until there was no way to retreat, her face was as pale as paper, her eyes were wide open, her body was shaking violently, and her whole body was tense, as if she was trying her best to suppress some kind of fear.

"roll!"

And at this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out!

Su Cheng rushed into the narrow alley like a breeze, picked up a stick from the side, and swung it at the two wild dogs!

The two wild dogs were caught off guard and were so scared that they immediately ran away in panic with their tails between their legs. But unfortunately Su Cheng was at the entrance of the alley, so they could only run from both sides of him.

and so--

"duang~"

The one on the left that was faster was hit hard on the head by the wooden stick swung by Su Cheng. It fell to the ground wailing, but quickly got up and fled.

Then Su Cheng was extremely fair, swung the stick and hit the sleeping heart of the white dog on the right hard.

"duang~"

A clear sound rang out along with the howling of the white dog.

Su Cheng quickly resolved the fight. He panted and turned to look at the two dogs running away in a panic.

Gu Ruoxue was standing deep in the alley watching Su Cheng suddenly appear and beat the two vicious dogs away with a whack-a-mole method. She was stunned for a moment, then she breathed a sigh of relief while holding the cat, limped towards Su Cheng, and said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you..."

"You're welcome, it's easy."

Su Cheng waved his hand.

But the next second, Gu Ruoxue started to look panic again, looking at something not far away, and then one hand was waving wildly in the air at a loss.

"Su...dog...again..."

She was so anxious that her voice became trembling, and she subconsciously hid behind Su Cheng.

"Ok?"

Su Cheng protected her behind him and looked in the direction she was looking. He saw another stray dog ​​rummaging through a nearby trash can. Upon hearing the noise, it stopped, looked up and walked towards this side.

then……

As soon as Su Cheng raised the stick and swung it, the dog immediately ran away with its tail between its legs.

At this moment the air became very subtle.

"Are you afraid of dogs?"

Su Cheng broke the subtle range and asked curiously.

At first he thought it was some kind of danger.

The result was just being surrounded by dogs.

Am I a hero saving the beauty?

But what kind of saving a beauty is this?

This made him angry and amused.

"Um…"

Gu Ruoxue lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed. She bit her lips lightly, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She lowered her head and whispered, "As for dogs...it's not that I can't handle it, I'm just not very good at it."

Seeing this, Su Cheng did not ask too many questions, because he felt that Gu Ruoxue might have been chased or bitten by a dog before, which caused mental trauma and therefore she was afraid of dogs.

At this moment, Gu Ruoxue, who had calmed down, suddenly noticed that Su Cheng was barefoot and wearing very thin clothes.

Most importantly, there were blood stains on the soles of his feet, and he was obviously injured while running.

At this moment, she analyzed the reason why Su Cheng showed up in time. It was very likely that he had triggered the so-called side quest and came to save her.

At this time, Su Cheng found that the system task was completed. At the same time, he also noticed that when Gu Ruoxue was staring at her feet in a daze, her eyes were flashing with complex expressions, and there was some worry on her face, as if she wanted to say something...

Su Cheng: Alert.

I have a bad feeling.

"Well, I have something else to do. I'll go back first. You should also go to bed early."

After saying that, Su Cheng left in a hurry, not giving Gu Ruoxue any chance to keep him.

"Um... please wait..."

Gu Ruoxue shouted hurriedly, but it was too late.

Su Cheng's back disappeared at the alley entrance.

This made her lower her head in annoyance. Going back like this would only make the wound worse, but...

She held the orange Mediterranean cat in her arms with one hand, rubbed her brow with the other hand, and sighed: "Or... let's talk about it in person tomorrow."

She naturally felt Su Cheng's embarrassment and resistance, so she gave up the idea of ​​treating Su Cheng's wound.

...........................

Back at the orphanage, he made up a simple lie to explain what had happened and then went back inside.

The system reward is another ten thousand yuan.

But before he could feel the joy brought by the ten thousand yuan, Su Cheng, who was sitting on the bed, felt the pain on the soles of his feet belatedly.

He looked down to check.

I found that the sole of my foot seemed to be scratched by something sharp, and a trickle of bright red blood was oozing out.

Su Cheng found a bottle of disinfectant alcohol and began to wipe the blood from the wound. However, as soon as the alcohol touched the wound, his brows frowned. Because the alcohol was too irritating, he groaned in pain.

However, what surprised him even more was——

The charging phone suddenly lit up and began to vibrate. Without hesitation, he took the phone and found that it was a call from the hotel.

Gu Ruoxue called.

As expected, Gu Ruoxue's voice came from the other end of the phone, but her tone was unusually sincere and serious: "Thank you for coming to help me today. Anyway, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"If I have to say thank you, I should say thank you to you."

Su Cheng said a little embarrassedly: "After all, if we talk about trouble, I am the trouble maker. And helping each other between friends is a legitimate reason."

"that…"
