Situ Xin, upon seeing the advanced equipment in the laboratory, couldn’t resist the urge to tinker.
In her past life, Situ Xin often stayed alone, finding solace in the organization’s lab, engrossing herself in research.
It didn’t take long for Situ Xin to familiarize herself with all the equipment in the lab, “I’ll start by making some simple gear to get my hands back in practice,” she said, and then went to the adjacent storage room to collect the necessary materials and began to work.
Luckily, time in her space flowed nearly ten times faster than outside.
So, as soon as Situ Xin was wholly absorbed in her task, she completely forgot about the passing of time.
An hour later, Situ Xin put down her work and stretched lazily: “Finally done.
Thankfully, my memory is reliable, and I haven’t forgotten those things from my previous life.” Situ Xin looked at the pinhole cameras and listening devices on the experiment table, nodding satisfactorily—her handiwork remained sharp despite the time she hasn’t spent doing this.
“In a few days, once I’ve loosened up my joints well, I’ll try to see if I can make a gun.” When she was gathering materials earlier, Situ Xin had seen components necessary for making firearms and ammunition.
Considering the current situation outside, she felt it was essential to pick up this skill again.
She definitely did not want to depend on foreign sources for equipment once she had her own power base.
At that moment, Situ Xin thought of the pinhole cameras and listening devices she had placed in her space and revealed a sly smile.
She planned to test the fruits of her labor after school.
After Situ Jin and his mother Loo Yaxin dropped sister Situ Xin off at her class, he didn’t let his mother stay but went alone to find his class in the primary school section.
As he entered the fifth grade (1) class, all the students turned to look at him.

Some girls whispered excitedly, “Wow, another handsome guy!
He’s definitely up there with the last two.” Since this school was Disciple Primary School, all students were from either wealthy or prestigious families, which meant these kids tended to be precocious.
Although the whispers of these girls were low and usually inaudible to most from a distance, Situ Jin was not most people.
Over the years, his inner strength had grown considerably, and even such faint sounds reached his ears clearly.
He couldn’t help but frown.
“Why are these girls so annoying?
Their voices are so grating.
My sister’s voice is much nicer,” he thought involuntarily, comparing the girls to his sister.
In his heart, his sister was the best, the most perfect.
“Jin, over here,” Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao spotted Situ Jin as he entered the class.
They had arrived at the school earlier than Situ Jin, knowing that his sister Situ Xin would be starting kindergarten today, so they anticipated his late arrival.
Over the years, the three had spent every day studying together, spending more time than most brothers, which made their bond very strong and ironclad.
“Come here, how did it go?
Did you drop Xiao Xin off at kindergarten?” Yu Qihao asked concernedly as he saw Situ Jin approaching.
Xiao Muli didn’t speak but also looked at Situ Jin, waiting for his response.
Those who knew Xiao Muli understood that even though he was a man of few words, he would stare at you intently when he wanted to know the answer.
“Yeah, I just did.
But I’m worried about Xiao Xin; she’s so young and it’s her first day at kindergarten.” Situ Jin said with a face full of concern.
“Don’t worry, Xiao Xin is so clever and spirited, she should be fine.
Let’s go check on her after class,” Yu Qihao said, patting Situ Jin on the shoulder.
Xiao Muli nodded in agreement.
Truth be told, he was not very at ease about Situ Xin either.
Yu Qihao and Xiao Muli, like Situ Jin, had high IQs and therefore often found other children, even those their age or younger, to be annoying due to their noise, crying, and lack of sense.
But interestingly, when they first saw Situ Xin, they were charmed by this delicate and cute child.
Unlike with other kids, they felt no aversion toward her; in fact, they had a fondness for her.
As they spent more time with her, they would unconsciously dote on her and found their hearts warmed and satisfied by her smiles.
“Big brother Hao,” as the three were talking, a voice suddenly interrupted, causing all three to frown instinctively.
Turning their heads, Situ Jin’s expression instantly darkened, and the temperature around him seemed to drop considerably, making Zhang Siya, who was approaching, shiver involuntarily.
However, it didn’t stop Zhang Siya from trying to get closer to Yu Qihao.
After the Lv Family’s downfall and Lv Yan’s admission to the mental hospital, Zhang Siya’s life in the Zhang Family became increasingly difficult.
It wasn’t that Old Master Zhang and Zhang Xinjie mistreated her, but their indifference, coupled with the nannies’ payback for Lv Yan’s old harshness, led to increasing maltreatment of Lv Yan’s daughter, Zhang Siya.
Zhang Siya blamed all her pent-up grievances on Situ Xin, having somehow got the idea that her mother’s insanity was due to Situ Xin.
Thus, her hatred for Situ Xin grew day by day.
Whenever she saw Situ Xin alone, she would try to bully her.
But who was Situ Xin after all?
Was she really that easy, that pushover?
Zhang Siya had tried to pick fights with Situ Xin several times, but never could get the upper hand.
If Situ Xin hadn’t been minding the principle of an adult not stooping to a child’s level, how could Zhang Siya still be alive and well?
Coincidentally, whenever Zhang Siya tried to trouble Situ Xin, she was seen by Situ Jin, Xiao Muli, or Yu Qihao who were visiting Situ Xin.
Thus, she was severely reprimanded by Situ Jin a few times; at that point, Situ Jin had no realization of sparing girls or not hitting females.
In his mindset, it didn’t matter who it was—if you bullied his sister, he would deal with you.
This had led the trio to particularly loathe Zhang Siya.
