Chapter 62: Do You Know How Good Your Sister Is at Fighting?

**

"Tell them that I gave it to you, or my master gave me the money, and I can give it to anyone I want."

And so, the incident with Aiwen finally came to an end. Tang Ailian breathed a sigh of relief. She no longer had to worry about her father straining his relationship with her brother due to the incident, and her brother wouldn't lose interest in everything because of his partially deaf ear.

Unexpectedly, because of her "generosity," these kids often liked to come and play with her afterward. Dragon Huadeng, who had stood up for them, even became one of her friends.

Aiwen's temper had also improved. He now carefully examined things before throwing rocks, and he no longer acted recklessly.

However, not long after the incident had passed, Aiwen got into another fight.

Aiwen brought the tank made of bullet casings that Tang Ailian had given him to school to play with. Many of his classmates were attracted to it.

Boys in the school all loved playing with bullet casings, and Aiwen's tank was quite large, about the size of an adult's hand. How many bullet casings did he use to make it? Envious glances were directed at Aiwen.

Long Baocheng, a twelve-year-old third-grade student who had repeated a grade, saw Aiwen's tank and was quite interested. However, he sneered and said, "What's the use of bullet casings? I've seen real bullets before."

"That's right! They're useless. Why do you even want them?" Another repeating student, Shi Yongcheng, stared at Aiwen's tank with desire in his eyes.

"Give it to me!" Long Dasheng, a first-grade student, reached out to grab Aiwen's tank. Little did he know that Aiwen quickly pulled his hand away, leaving him empty-handed.

Just at that moment, their teacher, Mr. Long, walked into the classroom. He sternly asked, "What are you all doing?"

Long Dasheng immediately complained, "Teacher, Aiwen brought toys to class."

Long Baocheng, however, rolled his eyes at him. He didn't even want to bother complaining.

Aiwen defended himself, saying, "Teacher, we haven't started class yet."

"But you'll definitely play with it during class," Long Dasheng argued.

Mr. Long stood next to Aiwen and reached out for the tank. Aiwen hid it behind his back and said, "Teacher, I won't play with it during class."

Mr. Long wasn't too strict with Aiwen, considering his age. He simply warned him, "Just remember not to play with it during class."

Aiwen nodded quickly, saying, "I know, I'll follow the rules."

The village school had only one classroom, with two teachers—one for the first grade and one for the second and third grades. Students in the higher grades would do their homework while students in the lower grades had lessons. Afterward, they would switch.

However, anything new or exciting that the students brought to school could be seen by everyone in the entire school.

Long Baocheng had seen Aiwen's tank and was quite interested in it, but he kept it to himself. A few minutes later, after school was dismissed, Aiwen and Tang Xiaohu walked to the edge of a ditch and saw Long Baocheng, Long Dasheng, and Shi Yongcheng waiting there.

Aiwen and Tang Xiaohu stopped in their tracks.

Long Baocheng sneered, "Hand over the bullet casings toy."

Aiwen naturally refused, saying, "No way!"

"Yeah, this toy was a gift from a worker uncle to Ai Lian. Why should we give it to you?" Tang Xiaohu chimed in.

"You won't give it? If you won't give it, we'll take it!" Long Baocheng had no concept of not taking classmates' things. He jumped across the ditch and charged at Aiwen.

"Are you bullying Aiwen?" Tang Xiaohu couldn't stand by and watch Aiwen being bullied. He stepped forward to help.

However, the moment he stepped forward, Long Dasheng and Shi Yongcheng joined the fray as well.

Tang Xiaohu and Aiwen, being only seven and five years old, respectively, stood no chance against the older and larger boys. Tang Xiaohu tried to fight back, but it was futile.

Just then, Ai Lian, who was feeling a little distracted at home, left her mental space. On a whim, she wanted to see how far her telekinetic powers could reach. To her surprise, when she extended her powers, she saw Aiwen and Tang Xiaohu being beaten by a group of boys.

Furious, Ai Lian rushed out of her house. 

Long Baocheng was in the middle of holding Aiwen down and hitting him when he suddenly felt himself being pulled away. Before he could react, he was punched in the eye, turning it into a black eye. Ai Lian yelled at him as she did so, "Who are you to bully Aiwen?!"

The other two boys who were beating up Aiwen and Tang Xiaohu stopped in their tracks, shocked. They had never expected Ai Lian, a little girl, to be able to fight so fiercely. She punched one of them, kicked another, and easily pushed them away.

If they weren't in the ditch earlier, they hadn't realized how strong Ai Lian was, but now, they were in awe. Ai Lian's punches and kicks hurt quite a bit. They quickly realized that they were no match for her.

Tang Xiaohu and Aiwen, who had been at a disadvantage, were surprised and relieved when they saw Ai Lian rushing to their aid. They stood up and stared at her in amazement.

Tang Xiaohu asked Aiwen, "Did you know that your sister can fight so well?"

Aiwen shook his head, "I didn't know."

Suddenly, they both looked at each other, their eyes sparkling, and ran towards Ai Lian together.

However, Ai Lian immediately ran away from them, shouting, 

"Don't touch me! I don't want to fight with you!"
