Pretending to Cultivate in Kindergarten-Chapter 113: A New Ability from Stamina

Lin Zhengran could still feel the faint warmth lingering on his neck.

He had witnessed this little girl’s growth firsthand—from a timid child who never spoke out, who followed instructions to the letter, even needing to place things down in a specific order before closing a door, to now, where she had gradually become so much bolder.

Watching her figure disappear into the dormitory building, he smiled and turned back toward the boys' dorm to pack his things.

Meanwhile, in the girls’ dormitory, He Qing had completely lost the strength to walk. She crouched in a corner, covering her burning face, and waited a long time before finally daring to stand up.

She sneaked a glance back to check if Lin Zhengran had left. Once she confirmed he was gone, she slowly made her way upstairs.

I’m so brave!

On her way up, she ran into Jiang Xueli, who had just come out of the bathroom carrying a basin of clothes to wash.

Jiang Xueli noticed her glowing expression. “He Qing? You and Zhengran are back?”

He Qing let out a little “Ah,” then grinned. “Mhm, we’re back.”

Then she continued on her way, still in her dreamy daze.

Jiang Xueli watched her curiously. What’s with that look?

She looked like something wonderful had just happened.

Like… someone in love.

Wait… in love?!

Jiang Xueli suddenly froze, remembering that just last week, He Qing had told her she was Lin Zhengran’s girlfriend.

Her brain short-circuited.

The basin slipped from her hands, clattering onto the floor. She stood there like a statue about to crumble.

“…No way…”

When He Qing pushed open the dorm room door, she saw Han Wenwen lying on the bed, reading a novel.

“Wenwen! I’m back!”

Han Wenwen immediately sat up. “Xiao Qingqing’s back? Where’s Lin Zhengran?”

At the mere mention of her crush’s name, the girl in love instinctively blushed. Lowering her head shyly, she climbed onto her bed.

“He went back to his dorm after dropping me off at the entrance to the girls’ dorm.”

Han Wenwen raised an eyebrow. “Oh? He walked you to the entrance?”

Then, in the blink of an eye, she teleported to He Qing’s bedside. “Spill it! What happened between you two this weekend?”

He Qing let out a tiny squeak. “Nothing happened… I just went to the tournament.”

“Really?”

“Really.”

“Really really?”

“Really really!”

“Tell me, tell me!” Han Wenwen lunged at her, fingers ready to tickle.

He Qing giggled, trying to squirm away. “Wenwen, stop it! Haha—there’s nothing to tell! I just won the tournament, and I came back to buy snacks with you. Oh, and… we held hands.”

Han Wenwen froze. “You held hands?”

He Qing shyly nodded.

She had some secrets now—things she wouldn’t share, like how she had also kissed him just a little while ago.

“Mhm… just that. Nothing else.”

Even so, just hearing about the hand-holding was enough to make a certain fox-eyed girl jealous.

That evening, after night study, Lin Zhengran noticed something was… off.

Jiang Xueli looked like a ghost. Her face was pale, lifeless. When he spoke to her, she didn’t even have the energy to respond.

Meanwhile, Han Wenwen was clinging to He Qing’s arm.

She kept sneaking glances at Lin Zhengran, but the moment he looked her way, she would whip her head around, acting all pouty and jealous.

Lin Zhengran: "…"

Lin Zhengran silently absorbed the system’s notifications as he walked.

…Alright, putting it seriously, this new ability is… actually pretty useful.

That night, in a two-story villa in Zitong City…

Jiang Jingshi and Jiang Qian sat quietly on the couch, barely daring to speak.

A stern-looking elderly man sat in the center, his presence commanding authority without the need for anger.

“Qianqian,” he said in a deep voice, “I mentioned the childhood engagement to you before. Have you met with the boy yet?”
