Chapter 5050: Not Afraid of Fire
My mother always praises my sister on her own initiative.

And turned a blind eye to everything about him.

He didn't get any praise from his mother.

He is sad.

He also wanted to praise...
He obviously tried very hard.

……

At this moment, listening to the praises from those around him, Xu He even had tears in his eyes.

He lowered his head in panic.

He didn't want others to notice his abnormality.

So shameful...

……

The rice cake on the ground caught Xu He's eyes, and his eyes lit up.

He squatted down and used branches to string the rice cakes on the ground together again.

He turned and looked at Zhang Jian.

"Zhang Jian, pick up your rice cake quickly."

"You can eat it after it cools down a bit."

Their rice cakes are already baked perfectly.

……

"it is good."

Zhang Jian came over, squatted down, and imitated Xu He, stringing his rice cakes together with tree branches.

……

"smell good."

Zhang Jian leaned in and smelled the rice cake.

He blew on the rice cake a few times to help it cool down to an edible temperature as quickly as possible.

……

Xu He reached out and carefully touched the rice cake.

Ok.

Somewhat hot.

……

Because of Xu He, no one needs to share their rice cakes.

The people who were arguing and about to quarrel suddenly "laid down their arms" and started to turn over and bake their own rice cakes.

……

"Huh, huh."

Zhang Jian opened his mouth and said, "It's hot."

He fanned his mouth vigorously with his hands.

……

"Is it tasty?"

The others watched Zhang Jian swallow the rice cake.

……

Zhang Jian frowned slightly and then relaxed.

"is acceptable."

“Not as delicious as expected.”

"Should have brought some more sugar."

“The taste is a bit bland.”

“But the burnt parts are quite crispy.”

"is acceptable."

Zhang Jian said again.

……

Oh oh.

Others nodded.

……

Soon, everyone ate the roasted rice cake in their hands.

Everyone's opinions are relatively consistent.

Not bad to eat.

But it’s not as delicious as I imagined.

……

However, Xu He had some different feelings from them.

He felt that today's baked rice cake was the most delicious one he had ever eaten.

Because while eating the rice cakes, Zhang Jian and the others praised him countless times.

He was really happy.

……

Xu He realized a fact...

He is not afraid of fire.

he is great.

……

Xu He was in a good mood until he returned home.

pity.

After returning home, his good mood was somewhat ruined.

On the way home, my mother bought some pancakes for my sister.

good smell.

He wants to eat too.

But my mother never thinks of him when she buys things for my sister.

.....
Even though he knew it was useless, he still asked his mother tentatively: He also wanted to eat pancakes.

Mom gave him a look of annoyance.

"It's almost time for dinner. What kind of pancakes should we have?"

He looked at his sister who was watching cartoons.

Then why can my sister eat it?
Is she not having dinner?
……

"This is a reward for your sister."

As if she could see the boy's confusion, the mother glanced at him and said, "Your sister got first place in the exam today."

My mother's tone was full of joy and pride.

"All right."

"Don't disturb mommy's cooking."

Mom turned her head.

....
The little boy stood behind his mother for a while, then turned around and left silently.

……

He returned to his room.

"Click~"

He closed the door gently.

Ever since his mother scolded him for slamming the door too loudly one time, he never slammed the door loudly again.

……

The little boy was lying on the table.

My eyes feel a little hot.

……

"time to eat."

……

The little boy stood up when he heard his mother's voice at the door.

……

He went to the kitchen to serve the meal.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave... he noticed a lighter on the cabinet.

This is what my mother bought for lighting candles on birthday cakes.

……

The little boy pursed his lips.

He looked outside.

Mom and sister are having dinner.

No one paid any attention to the kitchen.

……

The little boy quickly put the lighter into his trouser pocket.

……

Even when they sat down at the dining table, the little boy's heart was still beating a little fast.

……

The little boy quickly finished his meal and returned to his room.

He closed the door.

……

The little boy took out a lighter.

"Clap~"

The flames burst into flames.

There was a flame in the little boy's eyes.

Shining brightly.

……

After hesitating for a few seconds, the little boy slowly extended his finger towards the slightly swaying flame.

……

The little boy opened his eyes wide.

Really...

No pain.

Not hot either.

like……

What was wrapped around his fingers at this time was not fire.

But the air.

……

The little boy looked up in surprise.

Noticing the visitor in the room, the little boy grinned after a brief pause.

"Xiao Xi!"

"look!"

The little boy couldn't wait to share his discovery with his friends.

"I'm not afraid of fire!"

"Am I powerful?"

"Am I awesome?"

"Zhang Jian and the others all said I'm amazing."

“It’s amazing!”

"Says I'm just like the heroes in the cartoons!"

……

The little boy was very excited.

He pressed the lighter again and again.

Show your strength to Xiaoxi again and again.

……

"if……"

The smile on the little boy's face paused.

A bright light gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Mom and sister know I'm not afraid of fire..."

"saw me……"

The little boy put his fingers together.

Enveloped the flame.

"so……"

"Will you also praise me for being awesome?"

"Will you think I'm awesome?"

……

The little boy became more and more excited as he spoke.

His whole body began to tremble slightly.

When I think of my mom and sister praising him for being awesome...

The excitement flowed through his limbs like an electric current.

……

"Pap~"

……

The little boy immediately lowered his head.

He was just too excited...

He didn't hold the lighter tightly and it fell out of his hand.

……

The little boy bent down and picked up the lighter.

He had only intended to take the lighter temporarily and put it back after verification.

but now……

He had a new idea.

He wanted to show his special abilities to his mother and sister.

He wanted to see their shocked expressions and hear their praises for him.

……

How do we do this?

The little boy discovered a new problem.

Just walk in front of my mother and sister, and press the lighter...

……

Well……

The little boy frowned.

like……

Isn't it too bland...

Would his mother and sister not think he was amazing?

Instead, you scold him for playing with a lighter?
……

This is not impossible...
It's still very possible.

……

The mother and sister have always adopted a repressive education approach towards the little boy.

The little boy got little positive feedback from them.

Such as comfort, encouragement and praise.

.......
In this case……

Just thinking about the possibility...

The little boy felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on him.

He clenched the lighter in his hand.

No.

This is a rare ability of his that makes his mother and sister praise him for being amazing...
