She and her brother were standing behind their mother.

There's a feeling of not fitting in; they don't belong to this circle, or even to this world.

This time, his brother didn't come out because he had a cold, but Ji Qingyou was incredibly envious of him.

That way, I don't have to come anymore, which is really great.

Ji Qingyou sat down on the bench, looking somewhat aggrieved, her brows furrowed.

"Really annoying."

She slapped her hand hard on the chair.

"What do you hate?"

Ji Zexi suddenly stood in front of her.

"Uh--"

Ji Qingyou looked at Ji Zexi, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, with a completely bewildered expression.

"Where did you come from?"

She wasn't afraid; instead, her eyes were filled with curiosity.

Aren't you afraid I'm a ghost?

Seeing her expression, Ji Zexi couldn't help but laugh.

"Ghosts all look like this."

As she spoke, Ji Qingyou made several strange expressions.

She then said seriously, "You're so beautiful, how could you be a ghost?"

Ji Zexi couldn't help but smile as he looked at her ever-changing expressions.

It turns out that this was her personality when she was a child, but it was due to the burden of her family and the events that happened when she was eighteen.

He will cherish and protect her innocent smile, and he will ensure that she continues to live such a lively and cheerful life.

I won't let her go through that kind of life again.

"Tell me quickly, why are you like this?"

Ji Qingyou stared wide-eyed at Ji Zexi in front of her.

"I am the guardian of time and space; this is just one of my spells."

Ji Zexi sat down beside her.

"Time Guardians? Spells?"

Ji Qingyou looked at him in confusion, as one or two words kept popping out of his mouth.

"Well, I'm still young, and I can't use many spells yet. But once I learn the others, you'll be even more amazed."

As Ji Zexi spoke, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up. He didn't know why, but as long as he was with her, he would feel very happy and blissful.

"You know magic!"

Ji Qingyou was surprised.

Then she looked at Ji Zexi with longing.

"Could you teach me too?"

Ji Qingyou said this with a slight embarrassment.

Why do you want to learn magic?

Ji Zexi asked.

“I want to get rid of those bad people in my family. They make my mother very unhappy.”

Ji Qingyou clenched her small fists, her face filled with righteous indignation.

“I cannot teach you magic, but I have a way to let you learn magic.”

Ji Zexi frowned and thought for a moment.

"What method is it exactly?"

Ji Qingyou's expression also became excited, and her eyes looked at Ji Zexi as if they were filled with stars.

"Our family's Time Guardians are mostly selected from within the family, but... there is one Guardian Goddess chosen from among mortals. Although her status is different from that of the Time Guardians, she can also learn magic!"

Ji Zexi recounted the story in detail.

"Then what should I do?"

Ji Qingyou frowned as she looked at him.

It sounded like a very difficult task, and she didn't know if she could succeed.

"Summer vacation is over, you should be going to elementary school now! Go to Weiwen Academy to register, and you'll be selected."

Ji Zexi reached out and gently flicked her brow, immediately a glimmer of light appeared between her brows.
