Meng Xiaonan is climbing a tree when she hears someone venting . A branch snaps and and she falls to the ground . She was about to curse the person who’s given her a headache when she sees An Chuxia’s stern face staring at her .

“Laoda?” She looks surprised . The place is quiet and secluded . How did she appear without making a sound?

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, An Chuxia smiles in slight embarra.s.sment . She points at Xiaonan and says, “Pink cherries… in your underwear?”

“Ah-!” She screams once again . Students pa.s.sing by look her way . Meng Xiaonan roars, “What? You’ve not seen a beauty practice her vocal chords?”

Shrugging her shoulders in frustration, An Chuxia steps forward slowly before poking Xiaonan on the shoulder . “Can’t your first day in school be peaceful? Also, aren’t you afraid something would happen to you while you’re in the tree? Let me tell you… . ”

Xiaonan can tell Chuxia has her “I-know-what’s-best-for-you” mode . Chuxia extends her index finger and points at the tree . “I happen to be familiar with The Royal College, and as I pa.s.s by, guess what?”

Rolling her eyes impatiently, Chuxia says, “I see you, up on a tree, looking for a bird’s nest! Are you a child who can’t outgrow a habit? It’s a miracle you’re still alive since you can’t be helped… . ”

Meng Xiaonan shamelessly hugs An Chuxia’s shoulders . “You guessed right! I clearly see a bird’s nest . Why shouldn’t I poach it? These rich kids don’t know what is prudent . Their pocket money won’t feed us, so why shouldn’t we steal the eggs and eat them? What do you say about that?”

With force, she loosens Xiaonan’s arms before rolling her eyes again . “Meng Xiaonan, you’re now one of the “wealthy children” . You need to start managing your image, okay? Don’t fill your days with these stupid stunts all day long . Don’t go stealing eggs any more . You might fall from the tree!”

Xiaonan frowns innocently . She may have fallen off… But is stealing eggs that heinous? Saying that is harsh… [Oh her young friend never learns~]

“No!” Meng Xiaonan reacts suddenly . “Whether it’s climbing trees or stealing eggs, laoda, you’re the one who taught me!”

When they were younger and didn’t have pocket money to buy snacks, they looked for birds’ nests and stole the eggs to cook and eat . It’s hard to think of those days, despite being fond memories .

Both of them are silent for a while .

“Jiangnan! This girl… I’ve been looking for you everywhere!” [Jiangnan is Xiaonan’s real name] A middle-aged man’s voice booms . An Chuxia looks toward the sound of the voice and sees Xiaonan’s father . She vaguely remembers him .

“Didn’t I say I was looking for you everywhere? Didn’t I tell you to return immediately? I’ve been looking for you for a while . ” His tone is rather impatient . Her father didn’t seem angry; rather, he looked anxious . He pulls out a card from his pocket and hands it to Xiaonan . He looks at An Chuxia and nods before leaving .
