"Err …" It's a secret I won't tell you. "

Lan Ke naughtily replied with an adorable expression. Mu Cheng didn't know what to do with Lan Ke Xin, but he didn't say anything.

"There's clearly only one chair, but if you let me sit there, isn't that …"

Fortunately, Mu Cheng was nearby, giving the curious baby, Lan Kexin, the greatest satisfaction. Mu Cheng also felt happy because this was a boring place to be anyway. If he stayed here for a little longer, Mu Cheng would find it unbearable.

"But, heart, haven't you been to a supermarket before? I feel like these things are pretty new to you when you look at them." Mu Cheng was a bit puzzled.

Because when one looked at Lan Kexin, they would feel like a child. Although she was originally a child, Mu Cheng would never admit that she was very young.

"Yeah, I've never been to this supermarket before, but I went there with you guys last time."

She didn't know how much of a shock this brought to Mu Cheng. What did this mean by never going to a supermarket? This supermarket was a place where all the girls had to go. If he didn't go to, then either his family would be very rich or they would be very poor.

Mu Cheng stood in place, thinking about all the things that had happened in the past few days. Suddenly, he felt that Lan Kexin was a little unusual, although she was just like him, she was still in an ordinary high school, but her temperament and actions were definitely not that of an ordinary girl. Mu Cheng looked deeply at Lan Kexin, but luckily at this moment, Lan Kexin was attracted by the items on the supermarket shelves and did not have time to pay attention to Mu Cheng.

"But Xin, can I ask you something?" Mu Cheng finally gathered his courage and asked seriously.

"What's the matter? If you want to ask then ask. Why are you so serious?" Lan Kexin was also stunned by Mu Cheng's expression.

However, Lan Kexin, who had a pure nature, seemed to think that just looking around the supermarket would bring him trouble, so she stuck out her tongue. She felt a little embarrassed, but what happened next made Lan Kexin's entire body stiffen, because Lan Kexin had never thought Mu Cheng would ask such a question.

"But, Xin, tell me, what does your family do?"

"My family is just an ordinary family with a supermarket. They might be insignificant, but I don't think they are any worse than others."

Mu Cheng stared into Lan Kexin's eyes. A person could use his appearance or words to deceive a person, but a person's eyes were always the window of a person's heart, so Mu Cheng could only stare into Lan Kexin's eyes as if he wanted to discover something. As expected, upon hearing Mu Cheng's question, Lan Kexin started to panic.

This was because she never thought that Mu Cheng would ask this question, but since Mu Cheng asked, she had no choice but to answer.

"Mu Cheng, I can't not tell you. There will be a day when I will tell you. I promise you, but not now."

Lan Kexin sorted out her thoughts as she slowly spoke. After she finished speaking, she looked at Mu Cheng with a pleading gaze, as though she was afraid that he would refuse.

If Mu Cheng had to know, Lan Kexin would tell him in the end, but Lan Kexin really didn't want to say it. It was just as Mu Cheng said, he was just an ordinary person, so he couldn't be considered normal. However, after Lan Kexin heard her father's words, she felt that Mu Cheng wasn't an ordinary person.

"Okay, if you don't want to say it, I won't force you. But believe me, one day, I will have enough strength to find you."

Mu Cheng spoke slowly, as if he was swearing the most sincere oath, using all of his strength to speak.

Following that, Mu Ge let out a sigh of relief. He continued to look at Lan Kexin because he really liked her.

It was impossible for Mu Cheng to give up. Moreover, he had the Hongxing and he was only seventeen years old.

"Thank you, Mu Cheng."

After Lan Kexin finished speaking, she turned her head away. However, she no longer had the interest she had at the beginning. She stood in her original spot, unsure of what to do.

"But heart, why don't we go out for a walk? There are a lot of fun things out there."

Mu Cheng also felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward. He looked at Lan Kexin, and when it came to play, this princess who had grown up in a large courtyard didn't have a happy childhood like a normal child. She was mostly by herself, and that was why Lan Kexin was so dependent on Mu Cheng.

"Alright, I haven't even seen your childhood. Take me to remember it."

Lan Kexin said happily, but there was a hint of anticipation in her eyes. She hoped to understand Mu Cheng better than just being a classmate.

"Hmm, alright. I'll go and tell dad that there can't be no one here. Give me a moment, I'll be right back."

Mu Cheng said as he left. Soon, a middle-aged man who was roughly the same as Mu Cheng walked over. He looked at Lan Kexin with a faint smile and didn't say anything.

Lan Ke felt a bit embarrassed as he lowered his head, looking as timid as a newlyweds.

"Alright, but I've already told dad that a classmate came to find me, so I'm afraid I can't help him watch the supermarket today."

"Let's go, there are a lot of fun things around here, and at this time, there should be a lot of kids playing and not changing at all."

Mu Cheng brought Lan Kexin around the area to play.

"Actually, this place isn't much fun compared to Ben, but there are a lot of residents here, and there are also a lot of kids, making this place especially lively."

Mu Cheng explained.

"Un, let's go. I want to see for myself what kind of games I played when I was young."

Lan Kexin's face was filled with anticipation, and her eyes seemed to be shooting out little stars.

Along the way, there were only a few children. Some of these children knew Mu Cheng, but some did not. Perhaps they had just moved here.

He hadn't gotten too familiar with the children around him yet, so he was a bit shy. Seeing his two older brothers come over, he immediately felt a bit uneasy.

"But heart, do you see that? That's a marble."

"I've collected over a hundred of these when I was playing when I was young, but I've never lost. How about it? Do you want to play or not?"

Mu Cheng pointed at these children as he reminisced.

"I don't know how to play, do you mind?" Lan Kexin looked at Mu Cheng and then looked at the child on the ground as she said this in embarrassment.

"Uh, if you don't need to learn, then you can. It's very simple, I'll hand it over to you."

As Mu Cheng said this, he walked towards the group of children. He didn't know what Mu Cheng said, so he borrowed some marbles and waved to Lan Kexin, indicating for her to come over.

"Mu Cheng, you are very familiar with the children here. Otherwise, how could you borrow so much all of a sudden?"

Lan Kexin was envious. She was a child from the city, or a child from the upper class. It was rare for her to be able to play around like these children.

Usually, he would stay at home by himself, with a pile of toys in his arms, and play by himself.

"This is nothing. I'm very famous here. These little guys, I can't wait for me to borrow more of their things."

"Because I still have the strength, but there will always be some who refuse to admit defeat. They even have to take off their pants for me every time they lose."

Mu Cheng was bragging about his past glory, but Lan Kexin clearly didn't notice.

Instead, he watched as the kids put all the bullets into a circle and shot them out one by one.

Mu Cheng felt that he had failed. Was he that unattractive?

"Mu Cheng, can you teach me how to play? I think this is very interesting."

It was as if he was looking at his own idol. At this time, a few people walked in from who knows where, and these people were clearly this group of hoodlums, moreover, they were the kind that specifically bullied children, and could be said to be the most useless ones. It turns out that when Mu Cheng was young, he was bullied by these hoodlums, so Mu Cheng was very disgusted with these hoodlums.

"Sigh, I won't be able to relax no matter where I go." Mu Cheng felt a little helpless.

"Yo, where did this little girl come from? She looks like a little chick. Here, big brother will teach you how to play marbles. I guarantee you how to teach."

As he spoke, his face was filled with viciousness. As Lanke looked at him, she could not help but feel disgusted.

However, these people quickly noticed Mu Cheng, who was standing next to Lan Kexin. They became even bolder, as though Mu Cheng was nothing but air.

"Come on, girls, play with these brothers. I guarantee it will make you feel good." As he spoke, he reached out his hand to tease her.

However, Lan Kexin had long since hidden herself behind Mu Cheng. Moreover, the surrounding children clearly recognized these few people and had already escaped. They stood far away and watched from a distance.

"Stinky brat, do you know who we are? Hurry up and scram! Be careful of us hitting you."

Seeing that Lan Kexin was hiding behind Mu Cheng, these people didn't put him in their eyes at all and viciously said that these hooligans were clearly not professionals. It was fine to scare these children, but Mu Cheng was someone who had experienced many hardships. They simply couldn't be bothered with him.

"Disappear in front of me within a minute. Otherwise, none of you can leave." Mu Cheng looked at them and said coldly.

"Yo, this stinking brat has some backbone. I wonder if his bones will also be that hard later. Brothers, attack!"

"Let's take care of this brat, then we'll properly enjoy this little girl. Her figure will definitely be pleasurable, laozi has never enjoyed a student before."

The boss of this hooligan had only seen the world outside and pretended to be someone from the Dark Society. These actions, in Mu Cheng's eyes, were a typical act of a pretentious criminal.

"All of you attack together, in order to avoid wasting time. However, dealing with people like you will only dirty my hands."
