Chapter 178: Chapter 176: Backing Up the Little Sister
Bai Xiaolang narrowed his eyes. "Impossible."
Bai Xiaoshe was confused. "Why?"
Bai Xiaolang’s mouth twitched. "Weren’t you there when Mom had her checkup at the hospital? When she was pregnant with us, her uterus couldn’t handle all of us and got damaged."
"Her fertility only just recovered a little while ago."
Bai Xiaoshe suddenly understood. "Oh, right..."
Bai Xiao Zhu rubbed his chin. "In that case, it’s very likely that all Drooping Ear Rabbit Beastmen look like Mom."
Bai Xiaolang nodded. "I think that’s more likely!"
Wen Xiaobao was terrified by them. She hadn’t expected that after being bullied in the kindergarten area, she would wander into the elementary school section only to be bullied again.
She couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst out crying.
"WAHHH... You’re all meanies!"
The three little guys instantly panicked.
Bai Xiao Zhu quickly retracted his spider silk. "Don’t cry! I was wrong! I didn’t even pull hard enough to hurt you!"
Bai Xiaolang said, "Little girl, it’s a misunderstanding. We didn’t mean to bully you, we just wanted to... study you..."
Bai Xiaoshe stammered, "Ah... um, um, looking at your uniform, you must be from the kindergarten, right? Should we take you back?"
When Wen Xiaobao heard they were going to take her back to kindergarten, she cried even louder.
The three of them were at a complete loss. Watching the little rabbit’s face turn red from crying, they all felt an inexplicable pang of pity.
They had almost no experience with females this young. How were they supposed to know such a little rabbit would cry so easily?
If their mom found out they’d made a little female cry at school, she would definitely chase them all over the place and give them a good spanking with a bamboo switch.
At this thought, the three of them grew even more flustered in unison.
Bai Xiaolang gritted his teeth. "How about this? I’ll give you my bento, okay? It’s really yummy, you know. My mom made it herself; you can’t buy it anywhere!"
He held the bento box out in front of Wen Xiaobao.
Wen Xiaobao smelled the rich aroma of beef curry from the bento and slowly stopped crying.
Seeing this, the other two hurriedly offered up their own bentos as well. "You can have mine too!"
"Mine too!"
You have to understand, the three of them fought over their bentos every single day. Giving them up was the biggest compensation they could think of.
The little rabbit sat pitifully on the ground, sniffled, and timidly glanced at the three bento boxes on the grass, then back at the three older boys squatting in front of her.
She gave a small shake of her head. "No, thank you... I eat canned food."
Bai Xiao Zhu looked a little awkward and pointed to the grass nearby. "Your canned food might be... uneatable now."
When he had dragged her over with his spider silk, her can had already been knocked over.
Wen Xiaobao followed his finger, and her just-stabilized emotions threatened to crumble as her lip began to quiver again.
Bai Xiao Zhu quickly said, "Eat mine! My tomato and fatty beef over rice is delicious!"
Wen Xiaobao remembered what her father and older sister had told her: when you’re outside, you shouldn’t randomly eat things other people give you.
But when she smelled the aroma wafting from the bento boxes, her little tummy couldn’t help but GRUMBLE.
Bai Xiaolang glanced at the can in the distance and suddenly narrowed his eyes. "Little girl, are you from the kindergarten next door?"
Wen Xiaobao nodded obediently.
Bai Xiaolang asked again, "You were crying just now, weren’t you? Did the other kids in kindergarten bully you?"
Wen Xiaobao’s eyes widened in surprise. "How did you know?"
Bai Xiaolang didn’t even need to guess.
The label on the overturned can said "coffee-flavored." That was a flavor of canned food that kids hated the most.
Furthermore, the little rabbit had emerged from a line of low shrubs in a remote corner connecting to the kindergarten, a spot few people ever went.
Her nose and eyebrows were red, clear evidence she’d been crying for a while.
He barely had to use his brain to accurately deduce the gist of what had happened.
Bai Xiaolang patted her little head like a miniature adult. "How about this? As an apology, we’ll back you up and help you get justice. So stop crying and just eat the bento, okay?"
Wen Xiaobao looked at this little puppy-boy blankly. "Why..."
Bai Xiaolang scratched his head. "Just consider it an apology for our rude behavior earlier."
Wen Xiaobao looked up at the three older boys, and after confirming there was absolutely no malice in their eyes, she finally relaxed.
She nodded obediently. "Okay!"
’I’m not a little dummy,’ she thought. ’Someone is offering to stand up for me, and I don’t even have to bother Dad and my sister or make them worry. Of course I’m happy about that.’
The little girl took their bento boxes and recognized with a single bite that this was a bento made by Bai Su.
Only food made by Bai Su had this special Healing Power.
She looked at the three older boys with curiosity, wanting to ask if they knew the pretty auntie. Then she suddenly remembered eating at the pretty auntie’s house that day, and the pretty auntie seemed to have mentioned something about having three sons...
’So, they must be the pretty auntie’s kids, right?’
’I’m so envious,’ Wen Xiaobao thought.
’I can’t even imagine how happy I would be if the pretty auntie were my mother.’
Wen Xiaobao only ate a tiny bit from each bento.
The other three didn’t mind at all and, starting from where she left off, quickly polished off all the food.
After cleaning up, Bai Xiaolang took the little rabbit’s hand. "Let’s go. We’ll take you back to kindergarten."
The little rabbit nodded obediently.
The three of them protected her, and from a distance, they looked like three loyal knights guarding a princess.
It was almost time for the afternoon nap, and all the children were in the nap room.
The teachers had just finished a headcount at the door and were about to leave.
From a distance, they saw three young males leading a little female in.
The teachers rubbed their eyes, unsure if they were seeing things.
A Snow Wolf, a snake, and a White Spider... Didn’t they look a bit like the three children of Duke Bai Su, the wife of the Snow Country Leader, who had once made a fleeting appearance in the news?
As they drew closer, the teachers saw the school crest on their uniforms and the student ID tags on their chests, and their eyes widened.
It really was them!
The teachers quickly put on fawning smiles. "Oh, it’s the young masters! What brings you here?"
"Are you looking for someone?"
"Or is there something we can help you with? We would be happy to serve you. It would be our honor."
Hearing the commotion, the little ones in the nap room quickly sat up. When they saw the three at the door, their eyes widened in unison, and they began to chatter excitedly.
"It’s the Young Masters Bai!"
"All three young masters are here!"
"Wow! So cool!"
"They’re even more handsome than on TV!"
To the little ones, older students were figures of sacred, inviolable authority, sometimes even more so than the teachers.
What’s more, these weren’t three ordinary elementary school students!
These were the sons of the Snow Country Leader, the three sons of Duke Bai Su!
Their father was the exalted Snow Country Leader, and their mother was the First Duke, a Level 8 Female!
They had heard their own parents speak countless times of their admiration and longing for a Level 8 Female, and their submission to the Snow Country Leader.
So, their children must naturally be super amazing!
It was said that the three young masters only attended class twice a week. The rest of the time, they were training in the special forces team of the Leader’s direct military division. It was normally very rare to see them at school!
And today, they’d actually come to the kindergarten!
The little kids in the kindergarten were all so mesmerized they were practically stupefied, their "Wows" rising and falling in waves.
Bai Xiaolang, the leader of the group, ignored the teacher’s fawning and just turned to Wen Xiaobao beside him. "Which class are you in? Which one is your teacher?"
Wen Xiaobao blinked and looked around, then pointed to the very end of the hallway. "My classroom is over there, and that’s my teacher."
Bai Xiaolang led her down the hall.
The kindergarteners who had crowded out of their rooms spontaneously made a path for them.
"Wow! Little Prince Bai Lang is holding Wen Xiaobao’s hand!"
"I never heard that this commoner knew the prince!"
"What’s going on? Wen Xiaobao actually has such powerful backing!"
"Then those people in Class Seven are in for some major bad luck. They bully Wen Xiaobao every day!"
"I’m so jealous! I want to know how to become friends with the young masters too!"
"Wen Xiaobao looks so proud!"
"Wen Xiaobao is so amazing!"
Wen Xiaobao led Bai Xiaolang to a stop in front of the Class Seven teacher.
The teacher immediately put on a fawning smile. "Oh my, I was just wondering where Little Treasure went! I was about to go look for her. Thank you so much for troubling yourself, Your Highness. You’ve been a huge help!"
"Your Highness, could you perhaps leave your home address? I’d like to visit in person with a gift next time to thank you for your help today!"
Bai Xiaoshe and Bai Xiao Zhu secretly rolled their eyes. They had seen this kind of bootlicking behavior many times before.
Bai Xiaolang gave the teacher a once-over with a blank expression, his aura powerful and imposing. "So it was you and the students in your class who have been bullying my friend?"
