18 Completing the Preparation

I spread both my hand and promptly raised my arm slowly.

The grain of iron that mixed in the ground starts floating around me.

I clenched my hand gathering the iron sand in one point and compressed them to a block.

Thud

The block of iron fall heavily when I instantly released my bending.

I divide the iron into two part and create a mask from one of them.

It was easier shaping the mask this time than the guardrail from before.

As for the other part of the block.

I precisely control it to spread in the surface of my body in the shape of a vest.

Since I had school uniform concealed it, It would not be too conspicuous to bring.

As for the mask, I would just put it in my bag.

Since I already completed my preparation.

I spend the day leisurely in the house till I sleep comfortably.

The following morning

I promptly put the iron vest again before wearing my school uniform.

There is no way I would wear it for sleep, that surely uncomfortable.

I noticed there was a note at the table in the living room.

'there is your usual breakfast in the kitchen. This is also your allowance for today'

It was undoubtedly my mother that left before she goes to work.

She inevitably goes to the shop early in the morning to prepare the cake for the display.

Because my mother working alone in the shop.

I take the money at the table and stuffed it in my pocket.

At the kitchen Xiao Yu naturally had his prepared breakfast.

But when he comes to the kitchen.

'Hell, a whole cake for breakfast, isn't the boy to monstrous'

He forgot the kid always ate cake or bread that her mother bake for his breakfast.

Even thought the cake is still in the more petite size than typical cake.

But the problem is precisely that he did not like it.

'But he cannot waste the cake' he knows it clearly well about it.

Then a sudden inspiration come to me, I walked leisurely to a rack and take a wrapping.

I carefully wrapped the cake in a manner that it won't spoiled even if I shake it.

The temperature is also already been lowered by several degrees using my water bending.

That way the cake decoration won't melt by the radiant heat outside.

Since he cannot consume it, of course, he will give it to someone in school.

When I stepped outside my house, I shocked seeing that driver yet again in the front of my house.

"Guan Shenyi sent you?" I asked curiously, isn't I already told her I was precisely the one that going to come.

"Indeed, the young miss worried you would be tired walking to the mansion" he answered respectfully.

"ah, yea, I forgot her house was quite far if I were to walk from here" I stroked my head embarrassingly.

"Come in young master Yu" the driver gently opened the door and bowed to me.

We arrive at Guan Shenyi in just a moment.

Guan Shenyi until now wait at the gate of her house.

"Good morning aunty, Guan Shenyi" I get down greeting her and her mother that was beside her.

"Good morning Little Yu, I entrusted her to you then. I hope it won't be a problem" her mother eagerly pushing her back to my way.

Guan Shenyi is forced to walk to my side.

"It wasn't a problem aunty" I merely waved my hand lightly as if it was not a matter that burden me at all.

"The aunty will be at ease" she nodded.

Guan Shenyi is already entered the car before I know it.

I also am following along.

On the car we are chatting merrily about her and sometimes about me, I mixed the story about my previous life occasionally.

We are arrived at school in no time.

"You can go out first, I will follow several minutes later in quiet place" I said bitterly to her.

"Why?" she stared at me hopelessly confused.

"Well, you have some reputation in the school" I mention to her.

"If you were seen come to school with a man, especially me."

"It would create a bigger rumour about me later" I carefully explained to her.

I naturally want to be low-key in the school if possible.

I did not tell her that, though.

"Ah…sorry I did not think about it" she looked at me apologetically.

'But hey! Wouldn't it rid the rumour about him and that Zhang Guo if he were seen with me' her face lit up at the thought.

"But if something happens to me in that span of minutes, what would I do" she put on a frightened face.

Of course, it was only an act.

"That…"

I wanted to tell her it was impossible because he can track her as long as it was in his seismic sense's scope.

But he stopped instantly.

There is no way he could it about.

He did not notice she was faking her worried expression.

He is someone that were exceptionally careful with other people he speaks with.

Because of his dealings in the government, it was rarely anyone can put a façade and lie to him.

But because of his ignorance about some matter, and the other party is only a teenager.

He did not measure her in the same category as those people.

Hence, he unconsciously put his guard down that made him failed to distinguish it.

"You are right, let's get out together" I could only nodded as I cannot explain about the matter of his power.

"Hehehe let's go then" she cheerfully gets out of the car.

I go out after.

"Uncle Cui be cautious on your way back home" she said cautiously to the driver.

"Young miss. have a nice day" the driver waved inside the car before step on the gas driving away.

I already walked when she is talking to her driver.

Noticing me did not waiting her, she puffed her rosy cheeks angrily.

She then walked a bit fast till we walk side by side.
