    Hahaha, so cute.

    — Su Zai Zai Fairy’s Diary

    After Su Zai Zai finished speaking, she also felt that it wasn’t quite right.

    Right now, teasing the great beauty could only remain at a mental level. If she rashly took it further into physical contact, it would probably be too hasty.

    She thought for a moment and added, “… the dog.”

    Hearing this, the heat in Zhang Lu Rang’s ears subsided. He turned to look at her, his eyes devoid of emotion.

    Afraid he didn’t understand, Su Zai Zai repeated, “If your dog bites me, I’ll bite back. I’ll bite your dog.”

    Zhang Lu Rang: “…”

    There was a brief silence.

    Zhang Lu Rang shoved the bag in his hand into hers and said in a deep voice, “Eat and go home.”

    Hearing this, Su Zai Zai was a little unhappy. She muttered under her breath, “Waking up this early wasn’t just to eat breakfast.”

    “What?” He didn’t catch that.

    She didn’t repeat herself and quietly opened the bag.

    Inside were three red bean buns, two pieces of toasted bread, and two bottles of pure milk.

    As they spoke, the two of them walked to a grassy area in the neighborhood.

    Zhang Lu Rang crouched down and unhooked Su Su’s leash.

    Su Zai Zai’s gaze followed the dog as it ran off into the distance.

    Then, the two of them sat down on a stone bench under the shade of a tree.

    Su Zai Zai picked up a bottle of milk, poked the straw through the aluminum foil seal, and handed it to him like she was presenting a treasure.

    Zhang Lu Rang glanced at her before taking it.

    Looking at the bread inside the bag, Su Zai Zai scratched her head, looking conflicted.

    “Rang Rang, will two red bean buns and a piece of toast be enough for you?” she asked.

    Zhang Lu Rang nodded.

    “What about one red bean bun and a piece of toast?”

    “Mm.”

    Su Zai Zai kept at it, “What if there’s only a piece of toast?”

    “…Mm.”

    Hearing his confirmation, Su Zai Zai happily made a decision.

    “Then you’ll just eat one piece of toast.”

    Zhang Lu Rang: “…”

    Su Zai Zai didn’t notice his reaction, secretly thinking: If I eat slowly, this amount should last me until noon.

    And I can’t just eat—I have to talk, too. That way, I can slow down even more.

    After some thought, Su Zai Zai said, “I’ll tell you a joke.”

    “…” He didn’t want to hear it.

    But Su Zai Zai didn’t care whether he wanted to or not. She started talking anyway.

    “During the midterm exams, a lot of students in the class did badly. The teacher got angry and said, ‘The fill-in-the-blank questions were basically free points—40 in total! But some of you only scored 10 or 20? Anyone who got between 10 and 20, stand up and copy the test ten times!’”

    Zhang Lu Rang remained expressionless, biting his toast.

    “One student sighed in relief, ‘Phew, I got 21.’ Then another student spoke up, ‘I’m safe too, I got 9.’”

    As soon as Su Zai Zai finished, she burst out laughing.

    Zhang Lu Rang had no reaction.

    Su Zai Zai was speechless. “This one wasn’t funny either?”

    Zhang Lu Rang paused, then answered, “Mm.”

    Su Zai Zai, who had an extremely low threshold for humor, was now both embarrassed and annoyed. She accused him, “You’re just focusing on eating.”

    “…”

    “Are you thinking that once you finish, I’ll share some with you?”

    Zhang Lu Rang was about to deny it when she continued, “Not a chance.”

    “…”

    After making a scene, Su Zai Zai immediately chickened out and quickly handed him a red bean bun.

    “Of course, I wouldn’t just share a little with you. I spoil you so much—how could I treat you like that?”

    Zhang Lu Rang: “…”

    Seeing that he didn’t seem willing to take it, Su Zai Zai stuffed it directly into his hand.

    She suddenly remembered something and asked, “Rang Rang, are you still choosing science for your major?”

    Zhang Lu Rang held the red bean bun without moving. He answered carelessly, “Mm.”

    Su Zai Zai let out a disappointed “Oh.”

    Zhang Lu Rang glanced at her. “Study hard.”

    She didn’t know why he suddenly said that, but Su Zai Zai felt the need to defend herself.

    “I always study hard.”

    Zhang Lu Rang didn’t say anything.

    Su Zai Zai couldn’t help but continue, “This time, with my science scores included, I ranked 825 in the whole grade!”

    If she chose humanities, she’d definitely get into the top humanities class.

    Hearing this, Zhang Lu Rang frowned. “I ranked 25th.”

    “…”

    Su Zai Zai was stunned for a while before she spoke in disbelief.

    “Then why were you unhappy that day? I thought you did badly, so I didn’t even dare mention grades and kept trying to cheer you up.”

    “…” He really had thought he did badly.

    But now, Zhang Lu Rang didn’t dare admit it.

    “I can’t believe you actually ranked 25th.”

    “…”

    “You were just playing me.”

    “…”

    “You had an 825th-ranked student comforting a 25th-ranked student.”

    “…I wasn’t.”

    Su Zai Zai ignored his protests and kept rambling.

    “Zhang Lu Rang, if you don’t cheer me up, I might completely collapse, fall into despair, and never recover into the confident and domineering Zai Boss, nor return to being the beautiful and adorable Zai Zai Fairy.”

    Zhang Lu Rang had no idea what to say.

    After a long struggle, he could only squeeze out one sentence. “Be normal.”

    “Choose: Cheer me up or lose me. Pick one.”

    “…”

    “Hurry up and pick.”

    Zhang Lu Rang ruffled his hair, then gave in. “…How do I cheer you up?”

    Su Zai Zai thought for a moment, then grinned mischievously. “Ask me, ‘Who are you?’”

    Looking at her, Zhang Lu Rang hesitated but still asked, “Who are you?”

    “I’m Zai Zai~” She smiled so wide that her eyes curved, dragging out the last syllable playfully.

    Zhang Lu Rang: “…”

    After a while, Su Zai Zai asked, “Who are you?”

    “…” Zhang Lu Rang felt like he was on the verge of breaking down.

    Seeing Su Zai Zai’s expectant gaze, he lowered his head.

    His eyes were full of defeat.

    After a moment, his lips parted, and he spoke with rigid precision.

    “I’m Rang Rang.”

    That one sentence could keep Su Zai Zai in a good mood for a whole month.

    She decided not to waste any more of his time.

    Su Zai Zai sped up eating her breakfast.

    Noticing that she was almost done, Zhang Lu Rang called Su Su back and put the leash on.

    Su Zai Zai grinned widely, staring at him without saying a word.

    Zhang Lu Rang looked away and said coldly, “Go home.”

    “Are you mad?” Su Zai Zai leaned closer.

    He didn’t answer.

    “Don’t you think that was a cute conversation?” she asked.

    Zhang Lu Rang’s jaw tightened, his lips pressed into a firm line. “No.”

    “Then why did you say it?”

    “…”

    “You said it, and now you’re upset.”

    “…”

    “Now I have to comfort you.”

    “…”

    Su Zai Zai sighed. “You cheer me up once, but I have to cheer you up ten times.”

    Unable to take it anymore, Zhang Lu Rang finally spoke. “I’m not mad.”

    Satisfied with teasing him, Su Zai Zai changed the subject.

    “When you’re not home, do your parents take care of Su Su?”

    Zhang Lu Rang’s steps slowed. After a moment, he answered, “No.”

    Su Zai Zai, expecting a yes, was surprised.

    “Huh?”

    “…”

    “Then who takes care of it?”

    Zhang Lu Rang replied softly, “My uncle.”

    “Oh.” Su Zai Zai didn’t ask further.

    After a while, she brought up another topic.

    “Rang Rang, I want to get a dog.”

    He frowned and said in a deep voice, “Don’t.”

    Su Zai Zai was confused. “Why not?”

    He looked at her and answered seriously:

    “I’m afraid you’ll bite it.”
