Maybe it's because my grandma at home is like this, so I can't just sit there and do nothing. So today, in order to avoid being late due to accidents, I left home an hour earlier!

This way you have time to help others without wasting time being late!

Hahaha, I’m as smart as Ren Zha!

Ren Zha smiled smugly, stepped forward and took the initiative to support the old lady's arm, saying, "Grandma, be careful not to fall, I'll help you."

The old lady did not refuse Ren Zha's help, and said with a vicissitudes of life: "Alas, I am old, and my legs and feet are not very good. I have to trouble you this time."

Ren Zha smiled shyly: "You're welcome, but why are you out so early today?"

Ren Zha has helped this old lady several times and is familiar with her...it would be better to say that he is familiar with almost all the elderly people in this place.

"I thought I'd go out early to buy some breakfast when there were fewer people, but I didn't expect there would be so many people here." The old lady sighed, "It seems that everyone's life is getting better and better now."

Ren Zha nodded, his eyes sparkling, and said with admiration: "Lord Thunder God is in the city."

"Yes, all this is thanks to Lord Thundergod. Only with Lord Thundergod here can we all live such a peaceful life."

"Yeah, Lord Thundergod is the strongest!"

The Inazuma people are blindly confident in their worship of Lord Thunder God Baal. After all, the reason they can live such a comfortable life now is all under the protection of Lord Thunder God. It is said that there was a powerful demon god called Orochi on Kaigi Island, who was easily killed by Thunder God with one sword. The mark left by that sword still remains to prove the power of Thunder God.

Ren Zha answered firmly: "Lord Thunder God protects us, so when I grow up I will also protect you! I want to fight for you!"

The old lady smiled and said: "So little Ren Zha's dream is to be a member of the audience."

The Aojie people are Lord Thundergod's personal guards... although Lord Thundergod does not need anyone to protect him with his martial arts skills.

"That's a good ideal, but if you want to be an Aojie, you have to be outstanding in martial arts. Then you have to work hard, little Renzha."

Ren Zha showed a confident smile on his face: "I will try my best! I am studying in a martial arts school now!"

"Oh, you started practicing at such a young age. How is your learning going now?"

Ren Zha’s expression froze.

"Okay, grandma, I'm here to buy breakfast..." Ren Zha changed the subject. Seeing that there were many people queuing outside the breakfast shop, he took the initiative to say, "Grandma, give me the money for breakfast. You wait here for a while. I'll go to queue up."

"Oh, well, thank you so much for troubling you."

After Ren Zha bought breakfast, he helped the old lady back home. Before leaving, the old lady smiled and said, "Little Ren Zha, you are such a kind and good child. If anyone marries you when you grow up, they will definitely be very happy, right?"

Ren Zha shook his head in embarrassment: "Grandma, what are you talking about?"

"Haha, you're shy. There should be a lot of people who like you like this, right?"

"No."

"So do you have someone you like?"

Everyone in the martial arts gym is a man, and the women I interact with the most are various old ladies. Not to mention falling in love with someone, I don't even have the chance to communicate with girls.

"Okay, grandma, stop teasing me. I'm not going to talk anymore. I still have to go to the martial arts school for class."

Ren Zha calculated the time and there was still half an hour left, so there was no rush!

On the way to the martial arts gym, Ren Zha saw another old man.

Half an hour later, the smile on Ren Zha's face disappeared, and he was running madly on the road alone.

"Oh no, oh no, I'm not going to be late again. Nooooooooooo——!"

If you are late again, the teachers will come to visit you! It's so embarrassing!

As if he was running too fast, his foot slipped and he slid forward face down in a weird posture with a plop.

“Ah, that hurts—!”

My nose feels sore.

No, I have to get up quickly!

Just as Ren Zha was about to get up by himself, a gentle voice came from beside him.

"Are you OK?"

As he spoke, he grabbed Ren Zha's arm and lifted him up from the ground.

Oh? I usually help the old lady who fell down, and now someone helps me too. It seems that what grandma said is right, doing good things will really be rewarded!

"Thank you."

Ren Zha stood up and looked at the person who was supporting him. It was a girl wearing a kimono and with long purple hair.

Looking at the girl's exquisite face, Ren Zha's heart started beating for some reason.

A strange feeling, I don't know why...

"I'm fine..."

To prove that he was fine, Ren Zha stomped his feet, then made a "hiss" sound, lowered his head and looked at his knees, which must have been rubbed from the fall.

"It's nothing serious. I have things to do. Bye."

I still have to go to class! If I don't hurry up, I'm going to be late!

Ren Zha endured the pain and continued to run forward. It seemed that his body leaned to one side because his center of gravity on his legs was unstable.

Oops, I’m going to fall again!

Just when Ren Zha was about to fall, he was supported.

"You are such a stubborn kid. If you are injured, don't run away so quickly."

Ren Zha looked to the side and saw the same girl from before. Although she looked like a girl, the words she said gave people a sense of maturity.

"You're bleeding. Be good. Find a place to sit down and rest for a while. I'll help you clean the wound. It's not good to get infected."

There seemed to be some magic in her words. Ren Zha's face turned slightly red and he made a "hmm" sound.

Is this what it feels like to be cared for by a girl?

"Thank you. My name is Yuan Lu Zhi Ren Zha. What's your name?"

The girl supported Ren Zha and walked towards the rest chair on the road, answering:

I'm so tired, so alone

"Really, just call me Zhen."

Chapter 3: Is the lightning real?

really?

Zhen borrowed clean water and gauze from a nearby shop to clean and bandage Ren Zha's wound. Ren Zha looked at Zhen, and a feeling of wanting to get close to him rose from the bottom of his heart.

This is such a kind girl.

"You are in such a hurry, is there something important?"

Zhen asked while bandaging Ren Zha.

"I'm going to be late for class, so I want to get there as soon as possible."

"Now, you're not in a hurry?"

Ren Zha scratched his head and said foolishly, "It's already late, so there's no need to rush."

Because the bandage accidentally touched the wound on Ren Zha's knee, Ren Zha let out another "hiss".

Zhen slowed down the bandaging and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

Ren Zha shook his head: "It doesn't hurt! It doesn't hurt at all!"

"You're trying to be brave again."

Zhen said this as he bandaged the wound more gently.

"I'm not trying to be brave." Ren Zha blushed and said, "My dream is to become an Aojie. If I can't even bear this little pain, how can I be the personal bodyguard of Lord Thunder and fight for Lord Thunder?"

When he heard "Thor", Zhen stopped bandaging the wound, and then continued as if nothing had happened.

"The Ojie people will not accept disabled people. Take care of your body. If you break it, you will be completely away from your dream."

So she cares about me?

Ren Zha, who had never been so cared for by a girl before, blushed slightly, and gently turned his eyes away, not daring to look at Zhen, but still said stubbornly:

"Don't worry, I'm in good health! Hiss——"

The wound was touched again.

Hearing the sound of pain coming from Ren Zha's mouth, Zhen chuckled. Hearing Zhen's laughter, a silly smile appeared on Ren Zha's face.

"Okay, the bandage is done. Once you've rested, walk around and see if there's any problem."

Without waiting for a break, Ren Zha got down from the chair and stood up, trying to walk a few steps, and gave Zhen a thumbs up: "No, no problem! Thank you!"

"It's fine if there's no problem."

"I still have to go to class. Even though I'm already late, I still hope to get there earlier." Ren Zha looked at the girl named Zhen with a complicated expression, said goodbye and left.

After Ren Zha left, Zhen sat quietly in the chair, not knowing what she was thinking. She heard a chuckle in her ears.

"Ah, my goodness, you have become like a child."

Zhen looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a white-haired woman in a shrine maiden's costume standing there, laughing softly. She had a pair of white fox ears on her head. These were not decorations, but the ears proved her identity as a fox demon.

In Inazuma, monsters are not uncommon.

"Koushai Palace, you found me. It looks like you've won this game of hide-and-seek again."

"If I hadn't happened to pass by and heard you, it wouldn't have been easy to find you this time." Kitsaigong winked at Shin and said with a frivolous smile, "Who would have thought that our Inazuma's dignified Lord Thunder God would become like a child? If I saw him on the street normally, I would have just glanced past him, right?"

As he spoke, Hu Zhaigong looked in the direction where Ren Zha had left. "That child, is that the one you picked up in the wild? After so many years, he has grown up so big. Speaking of which, the child was crying and making a fuss in the cradle, but as soon as you picked him up, he immediately became well-behaved. But as soon as you put him down, he started crying again. He really clings to you."

Kitsusaigong covered his mouth and laughed teasingly, "Speaking of which, you are really cruel. After bringing the child back to Inazuma Castle, no matter how much the child cried, it was useless. You still found someone to entrust him to the elderly in the city to raise him... Why, seeing him again today, what do you think?"

Thinking about what happened with Ren Zha just now, Zhen nodded with a smile: "He is a very good child."

"He is indeed a good kid. He often helps the elderly in the city and is well-known in this area."

Zhen looked towards Huzhaigong: "Do you know him well?"

"After all, you brought him back with your own hands, so you should pay some attention to him. This child is quite pitiful." Kitsaigong complained, "He was abandoned by his biological parents since birth. He was picked up by you and became so close to you, but you still sent him away. He thought he would be loved by new parents again, but his nominal parents died in the line of duty when he was still in his infancy. Only an old man was left at home to raise him. The old and the child took care of each other, and he didn't even have time to make friends."

Hu Zhaigong paused and said, "Without the love of his parents, and even without friends, this child's childhood is incomplete. If you had really listened to my advice and raised this child yourself, this child might have lived a happier life, right?"

"Well……"

There was a subtle sound coming from my throat.

Hearing this, Kitsai Palace blinked his eyes and said, "Really, I was joking with you. I don't mean to blame you. Don't take it to heart. I understand why you won't adopt this child. After all, he is a human being. Life is too short for us. And with your identity, it is not suitable for you to do such a thing."

"I understand. Perhaps Ying is the only one who would take your teasing words seriously and keep them in mind, right?"

"If Ying knew that you said that about your sister, he would cry, right?"

"Shadow is not fragile."

"Haha, come to think of it, even if you are willing to adopt this child now, this child probably won't agree, right? Did you see the way the child looked at you at the last moment? I'm afraid this child fell in love with you at first sight, huh?"

"You are kidding me again, what does such a young child know?"

"Children nowadays are really amazing." Hu Zhaigong said with the tone of an experienced person, "Although they are young, they know a lot."

Hu Zhaigong remembered something and smiled again: "This child and you are really destined to be together. Even if you are separated, his dream is to become your personal bodyguard. He dreams of returning to your side."

"He admired the Thunder God because of his martial arts." Shin said to Kitsaigong, "But you know, it's not me that everyone admires. He actually wants to be the guard of the Shadow, not me."

"Huh? It seems that no one has ever told you that he wants to learn the martial arts of the Thunder God?" Kitsaigong stared at Zhen with amusement and pointed out, "In fact, you have been paying attention to him secretly, right? Well, after all, he is your child, so you still care about him to some extent? Well, let's not talk about it. Ying has been waiting anxiously. I found her first. Now who knows, she may be sulking at home waiting for you to come back and comfort her."

"Well, go back."

Zhen got down from the chair, and before leaving with Hu Zhaigong, he looked in the direction where Ren Zha left.

Don’t you have a complete childhood?

The life of a mortal is short, but it is also wonderful enough. Even if our life span exceeds that of a mortal, it will also be worn out, not just worn out... If at the end of the day, I also want to live my life like a mortal...

The fox palace who was walking in front asked: "Zhen, what are you thinking about?"
