  Chen Bo and the others were stunned, beating someone up and then asking them for compensation? Is this how things work in the world? Zhang Xiaoyu is even more overbearing than Chen Bo and his men.

  "Hey, kid! Answer me!" Xiao Dao swung the bicycle chain in his hand and fiercely whipped Chen Bo's body.

  Chen Bo winced, suddenly reacting, and said repeatedly, "I know! I know! We'll go beat him up tomorrow, but Wang Tao has bodyguards picking him up after school, it's not easy to make a move."

  Xiao Yu's eyes widened, and he was about to use the three-section staff in his hand to enlighten him.

  Liu Qiang, who was standing beside him, sensed that the situation was not good and hastily reminded Chen Bo, "Boss, can't bodyguards enter the school? We won't make a move inside the school, will we? I think the small woods behind our teaching building are pretty good, it's quiet there and usually nobody is around!"

  Liu Qiang was also furious with Wang Tao, he hated him for getting them into trouble with Zhang Xiaoyu, and they had suffered a beating for nothing. He really wanted to beat Wang Tao badly now, but he didn't dare make Zhang Xiaoyu unhappy, let alone beat Wang Tao, even if it meant beating the principal, he would have to take it.

  Xiao Yu nodded, "Alright, give us a week's time, and we can leave."

  Chen Bo and several others seemed to have heard an amnesty order, they fled the alley with their heads in their hands, even abandoning their bicycles.

  "Xiao Yu, this move is really vicious! Let them bite each other, haha, I admire you, I admire you!" Xiao Dao hugged his arm and leaned against the wall, looking at Xiao Yu with a hearty laugh.

  Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Little Knife, Big Cow, let's hurry back to the store. It'll be lunchtime soon, and Little Xin and the others will probably be too busy."

  "Right! There are a lot of guests today, and when I get back, Xiaohong will scold me again."

  "Huh? Xiao Hong?" Xiaoyu and Xiaodao simultaneously detected the slip of the tongue, could it be that this kid has hooked up with Tao Hong?

  The big man wasn't really stupid, he also knew he had just said something wrong. He lowered his head and walked out quickly, shouting "Oh no, I've only pulled half of the noodles, I have to hurry back, otherwise the guests will get impatient."

  "Hey, Big Cow, don't let him get away! Stop right there!" Xiaoyu and Xiaodao simultaneously chased after Daniu.

  ＃＃＃＃

  Fire.

  Everything is on fire.

  Piercing screams and despairing wails occasionally echoed in my ears.

  A girl's absolutely beautiful face was fluttering before her eyes, it was a familiar yet strange face, with a shallow star-shaped birthmark on the smooth forehead.

  The girl's eyes were beautifully sad, with long eyelashes that seemed to still hold sparkling tears. She gazed at him deeply, as if reluctant to part, yet also with a hint of determination.

  "Shadow"

  Xiao Yu let out a loud cry and sat up in bed, his head covered in cold sweat. It was just a dream.

  Glancing at the alarm clock on the table, it was 5 o'clock in the morning. Today had consumed a lot of energy, and Xiao Yu slept until dawn for the first time.

  The scene in the dream is still in my mind, who is that stranger girl called 'Ying'? Looking at her, I have a very familiar feeling, where is she?

  Xiao Yu quietly went downstairs, washed up in the bathroom, and then walked into the kitchen to make chili sauce.

  This was his daily homework that he had to complete, and at first, he also wanted to keep the recipe for chili sauce secret like Master Guo, but after going to school, this thing gradually became a burden to him.

  He also thought of passing on this skill to Zhou Xin and Da Niu, although Xiao Yu had given them a detailed introduction to the formula and cooking method of chili sauce. However, the chili sauce cooked by these two people was always one level worse than Xiao Yu's in terms of taste.

  Xiao Yu's hands and feet moved quickly, and in less than twenty minutes, a day's worth of chili sauce was ready.

  "Hey, Xiao Yu, you're up so early?" Little Knife's voice came from behind.

  "Little knife, it's still early, how did you get up?" Xiaoyu scooped a small spoonful of chili sauce with a spoon and tasted it, nodding in satisfaction.

  "Oh, I've discussed it with Big Cow, we'll take turns making breakfast every day. Are you making chili sauce?" Little Knife quickly put on a white apron, also imitating Xiao Yu's actions, and took a spoon to taste some of the chili sauce.

  "Hmm, the flavor is great! Xiaoyu, this chili sauce can rival that of a five-star restaurant!" Xiaodao put down his spoon and praised, suddenly closing his eyes as if savoring the flavor again. "It seems like a bit too much sugar was added, if some dried chili peppers were added it would be even more flavorful."

  Xiao Yu was taken aback, earlier when he added sugar, his hand indeed shook a bit, and the sugar was added a little more than usual, while the dried chili peppers were just used up, and less was added during cooking. How could such a subtle difference be detected by this kid's taste buds? This kid's sense of taste is simply amazing.

  Looking at Xiao Yu's surprised expression, Xiao Dao smiled proudly, "When I was in cooking class, the teacher said my sense of taste is particularly good, so I learned to cook especially quickly."

  Xiao Yu didn't say a word, found a piece of paper, scribbled a whole page, handed it to Xiao Dao, "Starting tomorrow, get up at 5 am every day to make chili sauce and soup base, this is the formula, haha, I'm finally free!"

  Watching Xiao Yu rush away in the distance, Xiao Dao looked at the formula in his hand and felt like crying, wishing he could slap himself in the face. "This kid is so annoying!"

  Breakfast time.

  Six people sat around the dinner table, Xiao Yu was savoring the fried dough sticks, looking at Xiao Dao's resentful eyes, and couldn't help but think of laughing in her heart.

  Xiao Mei's big eyes rolled around, scanning Xiao Dao and Xiao Yu's faces back and forth, unable to help but ask, "Brother, what's wrong today? Why are you always looking at that bad guy with that kind of gaze?"

  The little knife gritted its teeth and grabbed a big pancake, viciously took a bite, and nodded at Little Yu with its mouth, saying "Ask him!"

  "Huh?" The others also sensed something was off and shifted their gaze to Xiaoyu.

  Xiao Yu held the fried dough stick and looked at Xiao Dao, hehehe, silly smile appeared.

  Xiao Mei's heart skipped a beat as she blurted out, "Brother, could it be that he..."

  The little knife picked up a fried dough stick and hit it on Xiaomei's head, scolding, "Little girl, how can your mind be so dirty? What were you thinking?"

  Xiao Mei scrunched up her face, wiping her hair with her hand and pouting, "Brother! I just washed my hair this morning, and now it smells like fried dough!"

  Xiao Yu also felt embarrassed and said to Xiao Mei, "Xiao Mei, I just happened to be surprised by Xiao Dao's cooking talent, so I let him make chili sauce for me every morning. Don't think too much about it, don't worry, I will add 200 yuan to Xiao Dao's salary every month as a hard work allowance."

  "Oh? There's still money to be taken?! Boss, you should've said so earlier!" Little Knife was delighted.

  "So it was this matter after all!" The crowd suddenly lost interest.

  "Huh, Little Mei, you look really good without makeup!" Tao Hong exclaimed, noticing the difference in Little Mei.

  Xiao Yu and the others also discovered Xiao Mei's appearance without makeup. This little girl has a clear brow and bright eyes, especially those big eyes, which are very lively. It's just that usually she wears heavy eye makeup, covering up the sparkle in her eyes.

  Zhou Xin and the others also knew a little about Xiao Dao's siblings. When they were young, their parents died in a car accident, leaving behind a legacy that was swallowed up by their uncle as their guardian.

  The people in the eldest uncle's family were very cruel to them, either beating or scolding them. After Knife Honest Ren left, he took his sister and escaped from the eldest uncle's house. The two siblings fell into a desperate situation and relied on each other for survival.

  Xiao Mei's surname Ge also became more and more arrogant, becoming a little princess.

  Zhou Xin handed a fried dough stick to Xiaomei and said softly, "Xiaomei, you're still young, it's not suitable for you to wear such heavy makeup, so don't wear makeup from now on, okay?"

  Xiao Mei took the fried dough stick, lightly bit into it, but her eyes showed a hint of fear, and she whispered, "If you don't wear makeup, you'll be bullied by bad people!"

  "Being bullied by a bad person? What's going on?" The crowd shifted their gaze back to Xiao Yu, earlier Xiao Mei had called Xiao Yu a bad person, could it be referring to him?

  Is this little rascal capable of doing something beastly to someone else's young daughter?

  Xiao Yu immediately sensed that the situation was not right, and the eyes of these few people clearly wrote 'contempt' two words, surprised to say, "What are you all looking at me for?"

  On the other side, Xiaomei covered her face and started crying, and everyone felt that their guess was correct. The gaze towards Xiaoyu changed from 'disdain' to 'anger'.

  Xiao Dao let out a sigh, put down the rice bowl in his hand, and said to everyone, "You all know that I used to work at a five-star hotel. Do you know why I quit? It was because one day, the head chef invited my sister and me to sing karaoke. He got drunk and actually kicked me out, wanting to bully Xiao Mei in the private room."

  Several people couldn't help but let out an "ah".

  "It's a good thing I felt something was off and returned to the package house halfway, which saved Xiaomei at the critical moment. At that time, Xiaomei's clothes had been torn apart by that guy, and she had many bruises on her body. That time, I stabbed the big chef three times, one of which stabbed his liver area, this kid bled too much, almost died in the hospital."

  I also spent eight months in prison because of this matter, and I lost my job. Xiaomei was even more traumatized by that incident, stopped reading books, and dressed like a delinquent girl, thinking it made her feel safer.

  "Brother! Don't say any more!" Xiaomei suddenly stood up and ran upstairs like a flying bird.

  The story of Little Knife has come to an end. The scene fell silent, with everyone lost in their own thoughts, wondering if they were luckier than Little Knife and his sister.

  Zhou Xin and Tao Hong felt that they were much luckier than Xiao Mei. At least, they had parents and relatives, although working hard outside was tiring, but they met a considerate boss like Xiao Yu, and every day was fulfilling.

  The big cow, however, had a melancholy look in its eyes, hanging its head low, as if lost in thought.

  Xiao Yu sighed silently after hearing this, the world was full of injustices and not everyone had a smooth sailing life. The circumstances of Xiaodao siblings were indeed pitiful, but what about himself?

  Where did I come from? Who are my parents? What was I like before? Why do I have strange voices in my head? Why does that voice give me tasks? Why did I wake up in that small forest? Everything is a mystery, Xiao Yu can't figure it out and doesn't want to think about it.

  As soon as he thought of these problems, Xiao Yu felt a splitting headache, as if something was tearing at his brain nerves, making him wish he were dead.

  "Thud, thud, thud", footsteps echoed up from the stairs.

  Xiao Mei came down from upstairs again, sat back in her seat, and started eating a fried dough stick as if nothing had happened. The panda-like expression returned to her face. At this time, no one advised her, the wound in her heart could only be healed by herself, others couldn't help.
