My whole family is the protagonist, and I am the only cannon fodder!

Xie Huinian's seat was in the middle of the second row, very conspicuous. He kept his back straight during class, probably due to the habit he had followed since childhood.

It has only been a week since he came here, and Lu Zaozao has rarely seen him smile. Although he was not very cheerful in the past, she remembered that Xie Huanian was always smiling. Perhaps it was because of his upbringing or perhaps it was just politeness in his dealings with others. Anyway, he was better than he is now.

Fate would always go astray by accident, but no matter how much it changes, some things are destined to remain unchanged - looking at the male lead logo above Xie Huizhi's head, Lu Zao Zao thought coldly.

As usual, there was a flag-raising ceremony on Monday morning. Li Jianan didn't know what she had for breakfast, but she had a severe stomachache. Lu Zao poured her a cup of hot water and told her to just lie on the table and rest, and he would explain the situation to the head teacher later.

Li Jianan responded weakly with "OK".

Most people in the classroom had left. Lu Zao Zao quickly left the classroom door and walked down the stairs. There were not many people on the stairs. She quickened her pace, but saw Xie Huinian walking slowly on the stairs a few steps away from her.

Lu Zaozao was following behind him, not too close nor too far. Perhaps it was a habit from her previous life. She had seen his back too many times, and could only see his back. Lu Zaozao could easily tell the difference. The other person's leg was a little lame, as if he was injured, so he walked slowly and calmly.

If Lu had been braver, he might have rushed up to the other person and asked, just like expressing his concern for a new classmate, "What's wrong with your leg? Do you need my help?"

But it's impossible. In the past, now, and in the future, Lu Zaozao would never do such a thing.

According to his only but correct understanding of Xie Huinian, he did not need such clumsy and undisguised concern from the other party. It was completely useless and would only get a thank you and thanks at most.

The school broadcast was already asking everyone to gather at the playground as soon as possible. Lu Zao Zao didn't think any more and took two steps at a time, quickly passing the people in front of him and ran towards the playground.

After standing there for two or three seconds, Xie Huinian finally raised his head. Amid the noisy broadcast, he saw the girl's back as she ran away without looking back.

After returning from the flag-raising ceremony, Li Jianan had almost recovered and her face looked a little rosier. People were entering the classroom one after another, and Lu Zao Zao subconsciously looked up.

Xie Huizhi was still walking at the back of the crowd. There was no need to look for him specifically; with his looks and temperament, one could spot him in the crowded crowd at a glance.

He didn't walk very fast, but his steps were steady. There seemed to be no problems or injuries. Lu Zaozao even suspected that he might have seen it wrong.

But fortunately, Xie Huinian just transferred to this class and had no interaction with her. To be more precise, Xie Huinian didn't have much interaction with anyone. He was taciturn and would occasionally ask for leave, and then for several days.

By the time the National Day holiday came, Xie Huinian had not been to school for four consecutive days.

The school was filled with national flags and patriotic slogans, and there was a huge celebratory slogan made of potted plants in front of the door.

It was the last class in the afternoon, and most likely no one was listening carefully. Liu Qingsong came over ten minutes before the end of the get out of class to distribute a variety of homework. He told students not to have fun during the seven-day National Day holiday, to be safe, and to remember to study.

The air conditioner continuously delivers cold air, and the dust floating in the air and the spreading dryness are entangled together like a dense dark web.

Liu Qingsong was still chattering on and on, while some people downstairs were packing their schoolbags, making intermittent noises.

Lu Zao Zao glanced away and found that Li Jianan had already packed her schoolbag and other things. She was always like this. Every time she had a holiday, she would pack everything at least half an hour in advance, and then start reading novels and sending messages on her mobile phone quite openly.

During the National Day holiday, Li Jianan will go to her grandmother's house for a week, which is in another city, and will not be with Lu Zaozao after school.

There was nothing to do when he got home and it was still early, so Lu Zao Zao sat quietly at the table and finished one and a half test papers.

The sky outside gradually darkened, and the sky was filled with red clouds, as gorgeous and magnificent as a grand kaleidoscope.

A wild cat jumped out in the school corridor, it must have climbed in from outside the school. Lu Zao Zao squatted down and touched its fur. The kitten was very friendly and did not resist being touched by strangers. It looked like it would allow anyone to do whatever they wanted.

Lu Zaozao bought a bag of cat food from a supermarket near the school and fed it to the kitten. After eating, the kitten turned over, revealing its soft belly, and licked the palm of Lu Zaozao's hand. The barbs on the tip of its tongue made Lu Zaozao's palm itchy.

I heard heavy footsteps behind me. It was so late, but there were still people in the school. They must have just finished playing ball on the court or were cleaning staff.

Lu Zao Zao turned around and was suddenly startled. He looked at the other person in disbelief - it was Lin Zhao.

The other person's whole body was soaked in water, and there was mud and broken moss below his calves. An unpleasant smell was spreading everywhere. It was unknown where his knee had fallen, and there was a large bruise with blood flowing down. There were abrasions on his wrists and forearms.

Seeing Lu Zao Zao looking at her, Lin Zhao looked at her calmly and sneered, "Have you seen enough?"

Realizing that it was very impolite to stare at someone so openly, Lu lowered his head early, but soon raised it again, "Your injuries... Otherwise, I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup. I'm afraid you have internal injuries."

Lin Zhao's chest heaved. She let out a breath, said nothing, walked around her and went straight forward. She must have had some pain in her knees, as she walked with a limp.

Thinking of what Lin Zhao said last time, Lu Zao Zao ran after her and supported her, "Don't worry about the medical expenses, I'll pay for it."

Lin Zhao turned her head and looked at her, using a tone that was mocking and sarcastic, but mixed with a bit of sincerity, so it sounded particularly strange.

"Thank you so much, Great Living Bodhisattva."

This sentence made Lu Zao Zao laugh. The next second, she quickly heard Lin Zhao say: "Do you think I will refuse? Generally, people with a little self-respect will refuse, right? But I am not that kind of person. Why should I refuse such a good thing that I picked up for free?"

"Yeah." Lu Zaozao answered perfunctorily and took out a shirt from his schoolbag and put it on Lin Zhao. Fortunately, she felt a little cold when she went out in the morning, so she took an extra piece of clothes to put on.

"Be careful and don't catch a cold. Otherwise, according to your idea, you will waste a lot of money that shouldn't be wasted."
