Reborn, she saved the boy who was bullied to death

"Little Princess Qingqing, you're turning eighteen. Happy birthday. Welcome this beautiful day soon."

Early in the morning, Grandma Kang walked into the bedroom, sat in front of the bed, pushed Shang Qing's messy hair aside, and gently kissed her forehead.

Shang Qing blinked her sleepy eyes, her mind slowly returning to normal. "Hmm? Whose birthday? Mine?"

The process was slow, and Shang Qing was able to clearly see Grandma Kang's kind face.

The voice was a little hoarse after waking up: "Grandma? It's my birthday?"

Grandma Kang smiled and nodded, leaned over, stroked her hair, and kissed her forehead again: "Baby, get up. Today is your birthday. Come on, get up."

Normally, Grandma Kang never woke her up before 6:30, but today, it was obvious that Grandma Kang woke her up at 6:20, so she had more time.

Following Grandma's gentle movements, Shang Qing sat up, hugged Grandma Kang's soft and plump waist, and kissed her cheek: "Thank you, dear Grandma. Are my two eggs ready?"

Holding Grandma Kang in her arms, Shang Qing felt like crying, but remembering what her grandma had said: one shouldn't cry on a birthday, she forced herself to hold back her tears, but her eyes were still red.

How many years had it been since she'd heard Grandma say that? Had she never woken her up with a kiss on her birthday morning? When she heard those words in her hazy sleep, she, who'd been sleeping soundly, was miraculously awakened, even startled.

She had already remembered that today was her birthday. Every year, there would be a special magical moment on her birthday morning: Grandma Kang would wake her up with a kiss and say to her: "Little princess, you are X years old. Happy birthday! Hurry and welcome the beautiful day!"

Shang Qing had strongly requested this shy behavior. She had seen a cartoon where a mother woke her daughter up in this way. She was very envious and then, with great joy, repeatedly told Grandma Kang that she had to do this!

At first, Grandma Kang disagreed, feeling extremely embarrassed. But when Shang Qing held her hand and acted coquettishly, she immediately nodded in agreement. She had no immunity to Shang Qing's coquettishness.

"Ready, my little princess." Grandma Kang smiled even more happily and took out two big eggs from her pocket.

This was her Qingqing, without a doubt. No matter what had happened in the past few years, she was absolutely certain that this was her little granddaughter, Qingqing. She also remembered having two eggs in the morning. This was something only they knew.

"Grandma, you're the best."

Shang Qing didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed about being called "little princess." Instead, the flood of memories made her feel relaxed and happy. She immediately jumped up, got out of bed, and quickly piled the quilt beside the bed. Then she quickly ran to the bathroom and washed up as quickly as possible.

This attracted Ji Xun's attention. He didn't expect his sister to get up so early today. He followed Shang Qing into her bedroom and saw Grandma Kang waiting with a smile.

Did Grandma wake Shang Qing up? She was ten minutes earlier than usual. Grandma had changed. The most important thing was that Shang Qing was completely energized and not even grumpy about getting up. Ji Xun was getting even more curious.

Shang Qing, who had already finished washing up and was clean and neat, took two eggs from Grandma Kang's hand, approached the head of the bed, and with a little force, rubbed the two boiled eggs against the sheets, rolling them out, letting the two eggs roll from the head of the bed to the foot of the bed.

Grandma's voice rang out as the egg rolled: "Rolling misfortunes away, rolling good luck in, rolling good health, rolling blessings and longevity! Rolling misfortunes away, rolling illnesses, and always being healthy! May my little baby be happy every day!"

Grandma Kang held the two eggs that had stopped at the end of the bed in her hands and solemnly handed them to Shang Qing again, kindly instructing her, "Let's go have breakfast. Be sure to eat them. Don't just eat the yolks."

"No problem!" Shang Qing took the two eggs and followed Grandma Kang to the dining table.

Ji Xun followed behind and sat at the dining table. He sat upright, exuding a noble and elegant temperament, which was different from Shang Qing. Shang Qing was very casual and sat relatively straight, but she just wanted to keep her feet off the ground so that she could swing her toes.

Ji Xun took the two eggs from Shang Qing's hand and peeled them with his nimble fingers. Soon, two round, hard-boiled eggs bounced into Shang Qing's bowl.

Shang Qing, who disliked egg whites, ate both eggs this time. She simply disliked them, not that she wouldn't eat them. However, ever since Ji Xun's help, she'd been quite open about not eating them. Grandma Kang could only shake her head helplessly, but she wouldn't say anything. But today, the egg had to be eaten whole; that was Grandma Kang's bottom line!

Grandma Kang specially cooked seafood porridge, which was delicious and made with plenty of ingredients. Seeing Shang Qing drinking the seafood porridge with a look of enjoyment on her face, Grandma Kang's smile became even more kind and amiable.

Ji Xun knew what day it was; he'd seen Shang Qing's ID card, and the number was already etched in his mind. He'd also made plans long beforehand. He hadn't expected that, despite never waking up early on weekends, Grandma Kang would get there first, and with such a sense of ceremony.

Especially the two eggs and the beautiful words, Ji Xun's heart was filled with warmth. He remembered that every time he had a birthday, his grandfather would cook him noodles with an egg nestled inside. Last summer, two days before his birthday, his grandfather passed away. The grandfather who loved him the most was gone forever. No one would celebrate his birthday anymore, no one would cook him noodles anymore, and no one would remember his birthday anymore.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly, until a spoonful of shrimps appeared in the bowl. He wanted to look up, but he couldn't. His eyes must be red now, and he couldn't let Grandma Kang and Shang Qing see it.

"Sister, please eat. I have some here." Ji Xun tried his best to make his voice sound no different.

Shang Qing continued to eat the seafood porridge happily, shaking her legs and taking another bite. "Humph, I saw it all. There's not much there, most of it is here. I can't eat that much, so hurry up and eat it. If you give me more on purpose later, I'll be angry. We're a family, we should eat the same thing. Eat it quickly, I still have some!"

Shang Qing knew Ji Xun was doing this so she could eat more, but she didn't like it. Even if he loved it, he couldn't eat it all by himself. Grandma didn't like seafood, and they were the only ones who liked it. He had to eat less each time, and she didn't accept that.

"Okay." Ji Xun ate the entire spoonful of shrimp in one gulp, then raised his head, his eyes curved with a smile, and said, "Sister, I want to eat more."

"Haha, that's right." Shang Qing scooped a few shrimps from her bowl and put them into Ji Xun's bowl. Seeing him eating so happily, she felt very happy too.

Grandma Kang's amiable face grew even more benevolent. The two children were so polite to each other that their relationship was closer than siblings. Ji Xun, originally reserved and shy, became more sunny and cheerful, while Shang Qing became more caring and like an older sister.

That's wonderful! I hope the relationship between these two children can stay this good for the rest of their lives! Then even if she dies, she can rest in peace.
