Transmigrated into the body of a prematurely deceased beloved child

Chapter 354 Even the Substitute Loves the White Moonlight 40

Xu Yanzhao had no recollection of him; he had mistaken him for someone else. He said, "I don't know you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Qingning breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright, that's enough, you brat!" He, who had been unable to hold back any longer, immediately stepped in front of Zhao Zhao.

"Beware of fire, theft, and your cousin." When Chu Mubai said that, he thought there was some kind of dramatic story between Zhao Zhao and him. Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

"Sorry," Chu Mubai said, glancing at Zhao Zhao before turning to Lin Qingning. His brows furrowed at the first glance. "What kind of outfit is this?"

"A scoundrel pretending to be refined, acting all high and mighty?" Lin Qingning was furious at her cousin's direct criticism. "Don't make me deal with you here."

Those familiar with Lin Qingning know what kind of person he is. His current attire makes Chu Mubai suspect that he is up to something again.

Although Chu Mubai and Lin Qingning rarely see each other after growing up, their childhood friendship remains. Lin Qingning symbolically slapped him on the head, and Chu Mubai lightly pushed him back.

Zhao Zhao stood indifferently to the side with her arms crossed, watching the two elementary school students argue and fight. Unintentionally, her eyes met those of Chu Mubai, who was dressed in a racing suit.

Chu Mubai was the first to look away, his expression impatient as he looked at Lin Qingning, "What exactly do you want from me?"

"Let me introduce you to an interesting person~" Lin Qingning put her arm around Zhao Zhao's shoulder, a mischievous smile playing on her lips as she looked at Chu Mubai. "But didn't you say you knew our Zhao Zhao?"

"Hmm? Do you really know them, or are you just pretending?"

Chu Mubai ignored him. Upon hearing that name, he immediately became agitated. "Zhao Zhao?" He turned his head and stared intently into those indifferent eyes. "Are you Xu Yanzhao?"

Lin Qingning's lips drooped, and Zhao Zhao nodded.

Upon hearing this, the aloof young man Chu Mubai finally managed a smile. "I knew I wouldn't be mistaken. We met when we were kids in Nantai County."

He once lived in the small county town of Nantai for a period of time. At that time, he, who was introverted and withdrawn, met Zhaozhao, who was a few years older than him and also didn't like to talk.

"Nantai County?" This is where Xu Yanzhao's maternal grandmother's family lived after her death. At that time, her mother divorced, and they returned to the county town.

That was the most annoying time for Zhao Zhao, and coincidentally, during this time of irritability, she encountered a similarly annoying little brat with a spoiled attitude.

All he remembered was that he seemed to have beaten up that arrogant kid, and then, inexplicably, the kid started pestering him.

Seeing that Zhao Zhao remained silent and seemed lost in thought, Chu Mubai said with displeasure, "Have you forgotten?"

Zhao Zhao looked up, "Are you that masochist?"

When he was a child, the more Zhao Zhao bullied him, the more he clung to her. So, Zhao Zhao maliciously gave him the nickname "masochist".

"Hahahaha, what the hell?" Lin Qingning, who was watching them recognize each other with a dark face, was originally feeling a little sour, but when Zhao Zhao's name came out, he almost laughed himself to death.

"I didn't know Chu Mubai had this kind of quirk~"

He jokingly teased himself, and Chu Mubai, unusually, didn't get angry. Instead, his eyes lit up, and he nodded, "Yes, you finally remembered."

His expression and appearance really do overlap with that of the little kid he was when he was a child.

Zhao Zhao couldn't help but wonder, "Are you still a masochist?"

Chu Mubai's eyes lit up, fixed on his face, "I've emphasized this to you many times, I'm not a masochist."

"Forget it, it's up to you."

Zhao Zhao silently avoided his burning gaze, turned around, and bumped into Lin Qingning, who had somehow appeared behind him.

Lin Qingning then put her arm around his shoulder and led him straight to the door. "Didn't Zhao Zhao just say she didn't like racing? Let's go quickly."

"Wait!" Chu Mubai hurriedly called out and chased after her. Lin Qingning, upon hearing this, walked even faster.

"Go away, go away, ignore him."

If he had known about this relationship between the two, he would never have brought Zhao Zhao to see Chu Mubai. That brat's eyes were practically spitting fire when he looked at Zhao Zhao!
