After being educated, Doris fully realized her mistake.

Healthy competition was fine.

But provoking Garivi wasn’t.

Forcing her to respond was even worse—it was harmful.

Doris bit her lip, holding back her sobs.

Why should she cry?

She wasn’t the victim.

She was the bully.

A bad child…

Tears soaked her thick fur.

She didn’t dare look up.

Garivi must be very hurt…

She would probably be expelled.

So be it.

She would accept the consequences.

But Garivi’s choice shocked everyone.

“I want you to be my errand runner. You’ll help me with chores, bring me tea and water. And this semester, you’ll be responsible for all classroom cleaning.”

Her mechanical voice sounded less cold than before.

The students whispered among themselves.

They all thought Garivi was too kind.

Song Fu whispered, “Wow… she’s so kind.”

Song Xianyue nodded.

“If it were me, I’d definitely have them expelled.”

Even Doris looked up in shock.

Through blurry tears, she imagined Garivi’s face must be gentle.

Her conscience hurt.

How could she bully someone so kind?

She burst into tears and ran to Garivi.

She hugged Garivi’s leg and began confessing.

“Waaah! Garivi, you’re so kind! I’m sorry! I’m so bad! I shouldn’t have bullied you…”

“I’ll be your loyal follower! You’re my big sister! I’ll serve you, clean the class, work hard… I’ll do my best!”

“Waaah… Garivi, I won’t let you down…”

Tears blurred Doris’s vision, and she couldn’t see Garivi’s expression at that moment. In her heart, she firmly believed that Garivi was a kind and good person.

Garivi’s gaze, however, was as cold as the eternal ice and snow on a mountain peak. She looked at Doris’s foolish behavior with utter indifference.

Tsk, what an idiot.

In Garivi’s eyes, Doris was nothing more than a fool—one not even worth dealing with personally.

She didn’t bother hiding that contemptuous look, but most of the people present had already put a “kindness filter” over her.

Even Teacher Yoya was sighing in admiration of Garivi’s kindness.

“Students, Garivi is a kind child. But kindness is not a reason to be hurt. Everyone must remember not to bully your classmates. Bullying is wrong, okay?”

The classmates nodded in agreement, saying they understood.

Only Song Xiuhu noticed the coldness in Garivi’s gaze.

He frowned, leaned over, and asked in a low voice,
“Guys, don’t you think Garivi’s eyes look really cold?”

Song Xianyue immediately craned his neck to look at her. After watching for a while, he pulled back.

“No? I think she looks pretty friendly. She’s such a kind person! Maybe it’s because her eyes are silver, so they seem cold to you?”

Song Xiuhu narrowed his eyes suspiciously. Something felt off, but he couldn’t pinpoint it.

“Alright… maybe I was mistaken.”

He dropped the topic and thought of something else.

“I wonder when Brother will come pick us up…”

“Probably soon,” Song Xianyue said, also missing Song Yiran.

Garivi’s ears twitched. She had heard their entire conversation. A playful glint flashed through her eyes.

Heh. Interesting.

Ten minutes later, Song Yiran, Xiao Zhong’er, and Song Yutu hurried to the classroom door.

Song Yiran swiftly gathered all the kids and couldn’t wait to take them home.

When he received the message from the kindergarten, he had been scared half to death.

It was only the first day of school, and there was already a bullying incident!

That was terrifying!

He silently sympathized with the bullied child for three seconds, then secretly felt relieved that it wasn’t his own kid.

He knew this thought wasn’t very appropriate, but human nature was flawed. After criticizing himself, he pretended nothing was wrong and prepared to leave.

Just as they were about to go, Teacher Yoya stopped them.

“Song Fu’s guardian, could you please come to the office for a talk?”

Song Fu’s cheerful steps froze.

Oh no!

Song Yiran’s heart skipped a beat.

Why do they want to talk to me? Did something happen to Fu at school?

Teacher Yoya asked another teacher to manage the class temporarily and led them to her office.

Song Yutu stayed outside with the other children. Song Yiran and Xiao Zhong’er followed her in.

Swallowing nervously, Song Yiran asked carefully,
“Teacher… did my child do something wrong at school?”

Did he break discipline in class? No, impossible. He’s always well-behaved… Then what is it?

Yoya adjusted her glasses.

“It’s like this. Today, we conducted a placement test. Song Fu scored zero.”

Song Yiran’s jaw dropped.

Zero?!

Had he heard wrong?

Xiao Zhong’er, who had been watching quietly, widened his eyes.

“How much? Zero?!”

He was completely stunned.

Oh system heavens… Someone actually got zero!

“Please calm down,” Yoya said. “Grades are not the sole standard for judging a student. I didn’t call you here because of his score, but because of his learning attitude.”

She projected Song Fu’s test paper and pointed out the suspicious parts.

“There were nineteen multiple-choice questions. Even with terrible luck, random guessing would get you over ten points. But—Song Fu avoided every single correct answer.”

“That’s unreasonable, unless he knew the right answers and deliberately avoided them.”

“Let’s assume he was just extremely unlucky and guessed everything wrong. Then look at the fill-in-the-blanks and the essay. The essay is completely blank. The fill-in-the-blanks are also empty.”

“Even if he didn’t know how to do the blanks, he should have written something in the essay. But he didn’t. It’s blank too.”

For comparison, Yoya pulled up Song Xianyue’s paper.

“This is Song Xianyue’s test. He didn’t pass, but his paper is different.”

“His multiple-choice answers are clearly random. Some similar questions are right, some are wrong. He doesn’t know the material, but he guessed and got several points.”

“His true-or-false questions are similar. He doesn’t know them, but he copied parts of the questions as answers.”

“Some happened to be right, so he earned a few points.”

“Now look at his essay. His language skills aren’t strong, and he misspelled many words, but he still finished it and earned some points.”

Putting the two papers together, she said:

“Song Xianyue’s knowledge isn’t solid, but during exams, he tries his best to score.”

She adjusted her glasses again.

“But Song Fu is different. There may be a problem with his attitude toward learning.”

“Our kindergarten doesn’t place much emphasis on grades. Our philosophy is that grades are not the only measure of a student.”

“Everyone has different strengths and weaknesses. But attitude is important. Even if you don’t know, you should at least fill in the paper.”

“I believe Song Fu probably knew most of the answers, but deliberately avoided the correct ones. I hope you’ll talk to him.”

After leaving the office, Song Yiran looked calm on the surface and said nothing, leading everyone home as usual.

He walked in front. Xiao Zhong’er and Song Yutu flanked him like guardians. Song Buli and the others formed a silent circle, with Song Fu in the middle.

On the surface, everything seemed peaceful, but underneath, tension was brewing.

After they got home, Song Yiran finally delivered the “verdict.”

“Fu Fu, come with me.”

He was still smiling, but to Song Fu, it looked like “the last smile before judgment.”

Song Fu swallowed nervously.

Waaah… Am I going to get screwed?

Song Buli and the others wanted to go with him for moral support, but Xiao Zhong’er and Song Yutu stopped them.

Song Yiran led Song Fu to the peach tree in the yard, squatted down, and rubbed his fluffy head.

“Sigh… baby, what’s going on in that little head of yours? You knew the right answers today, didn’t you? Why did you deliberately get zero?”
