Zhi Ling Ling tilts her head, "Squashed to death? That crowds? What are they doing there?"

Nie An replied, "From what I just heard, it seems that there's a very handsome student who was sitting in front of the food stall... I think that's why most of the crowds there are girls..."

Xiao Yun further asked, "A handsome student?"

Nie An, "Yes... I didn't hear his name but the gossips also said that he actually had enrolled in the school since first-year. However because he has a chronic illness since childhood, he went to England for a large operation and rehabilitation."

Xiao Yun sunk into a deep ponder. 'Does this also happen in her previous life? Why can't she remember this happening? Does this mean... This is also happening because of the butterfly effect?'

Nie An continued to ask with a bright expression. "Xiao Yun, are you going to the school trip too? "

Zhi Ling Ling's timid eyes sparkle along with her bright nods, waiting for Xiao Yun's answer.

Looking at her friends' excited eyes, Xiao Yun's voice grew gentler. Perhaps because of her real age1, the two girls in front of her look more like a younger sister than a friend of the same age...

With the two sparkling hopeful eyes in front of her, Xiao Yun felt immense pressure to her decision. "Yes! Of course!"

Because in the past she had never gone to any school trips and was very interested in it, she really quickly say "yes.".

Nie An and Zhi Ling Ling burst into happiness and quickly talked about the stuff they need to prepare for their trip.

Nie An, "Snacks are important!"

Zhi Ling Ling nodded and answered softly. "Er... I think we also need extra clothes too."

Xiao Yun nodded, "Yes, and also Nie An, isn't it would be better to bring a large suitcase rather than this a small luggage, but also bring one bag for our daily use. " Xiao Yun gave some points.

Nie An nodded in agreement. "Where would we be visiting in Hangzhou?"

Zhi Ling Ling answered. "Er... Somewhere... I don't really remember."

Xiao Yun rubbed her chin and helped. " West Lake, Longjing tea and Dragon Well, Qinghefan street, Lingyin Temple, and for the last day we would go to Leifeng Pagodas. I recommend wearing light clothes, comfortable shoes, some snacks, sunscreen, and don't bring any heavy or useless stuff since it would only tire you out. "

"Okay!" Nie An nodded and took note of Xiao Yun's words.

"-Ah, also it wouldn't be hurt to be more on guard. Also bring umbrellas, bug repellent, and extra pocket money. " Xiao Yun added

Nie An and Zhi Ling Ling nodded. "There's a lot of walking to do there... Ah! But I heard our hotel is very luxurious!!"

Xiao Yun lifted her brow. "Luxurious hotel...? Where? "

Nie An, "Four Bridge Hotel Hangzhou at West Lake!"

'Hm..?' Xiao Yun almost couldn't believe her ears. "That Four Bridge Hotel... right?"

Since when her school becomes rich? To afford such a luxurious hotel...?

Nie An nodded, "Yes! I also couldn't believe it!! It seems the sponsors for this trip was the one who proposed that idea. It seems that the sponsors are one of the student's family and they were also the ones who proposed the idea of having a school trip. I also heard that they proposed the idea once and was immediately agreed by the school's directors! Isn't that amazing? I wonder whose parents did that..."

Xiao Yun munch on her rice before answering in a small mumble. "Really...? Proposing the idea one time and the school's directors immediately agreed at once? " -'What kind of a distinguished person could do that...?'

As Xiao Yun took her last bite from the lunch box, the school bell rang loudly on top of her that her ears become buzzed.

Tidying up her things, Xiao Yun stood up from her table and waited for Nie An and Zhi Ling Ling to finish before walking back together to their room.

A few hours after lunch break---

As the last period ended, Xiao Yun tidied up her desk and put in the other notes inside her bag. When she pushes another book inside, something hit with the edge of her book.

She ruffles the things inside her bag and found the pastel pink-colored box.

'This... isn't this Andy's belated birthday present? He did say that it took a very long time for 'it' to finishes... But judging by Andy's personality and his previous self-defense tools... Each year his presents become more intense... '

Xiao Yun carefully shook the box to her ears. Judging by the compactness of the box, it was almost too small for anything to fit. With the rolling sound of the thing inside the box hitting the corner of the box as Xiao Yun shook it, her rabbit ears rise up skeptically.

'What could fit in such a small box? And this box sounds eerily light...'

Rubbing her chin curiously, Xiao Yun rip the wrap of the box and opened the box gently, still skeptical with what Andy could have given her.

As she removed the lid of the rectangular box, a pink-colored pen-like device placed among the colored tissue sheet.

Xiao Yun lifts her brow in utter confusion.

What is this?!!!

Xiao Yun was about to scream from deep shock.

It wasn't something that looked dangerous... rather, it was the complete opposite!! His present was a normal pink-colored pen!

That Andy who was always eccentric in sending self-defense tools, such as arrows, butterfly knives, Japanese shurikens, golden poisoned needle, gave a normal pink-colored pen to her?!!

The difference between his previous presents and her 18th present was akin to Heaven and Earth... Too normal to be true.

This was an overwhelming fact for Xiao Yun to swallow. While gazing at the pen dumbfounded, Xiao Yun remembered Andy's words before he ended the call last night.

'Be careful when using it...'

Whenever Andy sent his self-defense things, he wouldn't usually warn her except those devices really pose much of a threat...

Does this pen have something 'that' powerful? Or is it possible that this is...this is... something that's even more dangerous than his previous weapons?!

'We are talking about Andy here... "That" Andy who sent a custom made crossbow and spear to a 10-year-old young girl...'

With that thought, Xiao Yun became overly cautious of the pen and hold the edge of the pen very carefully to observe the interior.

After further observing the pen, Xiao Yun realized something. The pen doesn't have an opening and couldn't be opened, rather it has two buttons in the middle of the body.

As she keenly gazed at the pen from the box, her eyes caught on the sight of a small note under the pen.

[ Hello! Xiao Yun, how is your birthday gift? Someone was complaining that my birthday gift was too abnormal and so, I decided to make it look normal!! I guess you are still wondering just what special from the pen, don't you? Truth to be told, this isn't a pen but a compact electric baton!! I made it especially for you!! And in a sight, people wouldn't know what this is so it's very convenient, don't you think?!! I'm such a genius!! Aahahaha, thank you for the praise!- Anyway, if you are wondering how to use this, there's a button in the middle of the pen. And if you click that, the pen will expand horizontally into a tall baton! It may look too thin or too small however, I guarantee you that it would never break no matter how harsh you whip it to someone! If you click it twice, then the electricity would flow!! And the highlight of this is... The 100 million volt electricity!!! You could set the electricity as you like!! There's also an instruction of how much volts you need in order to knock or *Cough* someone! Ah- and don't try this at home, alright? And don't tell you-know-who about this, okay? These days he's been so calm so if suddenly he burst into anger, I wouldn't be able to stay alive anymore...

Sincerely your childhood friend,

Andy.]

Xiao Yun's eye twitched. 'The you-know-who he mentioned... He must be talking about Li Lei...'

To be able to quip, explain, joke, and praise himself in a letter form...

As expected of Andy...

Xiao Yun wryly laughs from Andy's letter. She looks toward the compact baton on her hand with admiration. She knew that since they were young Andy had always taken interest in making things.

After he finished his studies and became a doctor, Andy was scouted in the street of China and suddenly change his job into a model...

Seeing how capable he is, Xiao Yun sometimes wonder. 'Is this why he is able to become a friend of Wang Li Lei...? They do say birds of the same feather flock together... But his timing is surely good, I was about to as him to costume made self-defense device to protect myself... I should thank him later!'

Nie An who finished tidy up her things pat Xiao Yun from her thoughts. Xiao Yun jolt startled before clumsily put the baton in her skirt's pocket.

Seeing how startled Xiao Yun was, Nie An worriedly asked. "Are you alright? Xiao- Ling Ling went home early because of her family's business."

Xiao Yun nodded, "Yes, I am. Let's go."

Xue Xiu Yong who hadn't say anything since lunch break, gaze toward Xiao Yun before following her silently.

Nie And who saw Xue Xiu Yong's silhouette from the window scoffed before leaving the classroom toward the school's gate.
