Reborn as the Darling of the Delta

"You're right, but I'm going to sleep with Xiaohao now. Goodbye, good afternoon."

After this whole ordeal, Luna felt like she had punched cotton. This feeling of having strength but not being able to use it made her feel incredibly frustrated. In the end, all she could manage to utter was "Aish!"

Zhang Hao: What happened? Wasn't I still eating?

After a while, Zhang Hao came running down again and sat down to eat. He had been running around all morning, so he needed to eat more.

"Xiao Hao, go home and get some rest at noon. We won't be having indoor classes this afternoon; I'm going to test your practical skills!"

After finishing the last bite of his meal, Red Wolf took a tissue, wiped his mouth, and said to Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao: (;?д｀)ゞ

"No way, Uncle Red Wolf, I was already exhausted this morning. Seeing me all limp this afternoon won't be very interesting!"

After saying that, Zhang Hao looked at Red Wolf with his big, bright eyes, trying to get away with it by being cute.

Unfortunately, Red Wolf, who was prepared, turned his head away, refusing to look at Zhang Hao's pitiful eyes. He had seen Zhang Hao use this trick to slack off in Mai Xiaowen and Luna's classes before, and he would never make the same mistake again.

Seeing the determined Red Wolf, Zhang Hao could only sigh helplessly and silently eat another bowl of rice, because only when he was full could he have the strength to take a beating.

"Red Wolf, go easy on Xiao Hao this afternoon, okay? If I see Xiao Hao crying, hmph, you'll have to deal with it yourself."

At that moment, Zoya's words were like a savior, giving Zhang Hao, who had been in despair, hope. He turned and ran into Zoya's arms, kissed her on the cheek, and said:

"Waaah, Zoya really cares about me. Don't worry, Zoya, I won't let you down."

Knowing Zoya's temper well, Red Wolf was momentarily speechless. Had he become a villain? But he hadn't intended to hurt Xiao Hao badly; he was a precious treasure to him.

"I......"

"Alright, Red Wolf, let's just do what we need to do. Zoya, you're really meddling in other people's business, aren't you? Trying to remind yourself of the time I taught you?"

At this moment, Shen Lan's voice drifted over, momentarily extinguishing the smugness of Zoya. It seemed that with this bloodline suppression, Xiao Hao wouldn't be able to protect himself today.

"Well... Xiao Hao is fine. Your sister Zoya's medical skills are still amazing. As long as you didn't kill her, I can save her. There's nothing I can do about this old man's pressure. You... good luck."

Finally, Red Wolf couldn't hold back any longer and said:

"No, what are you all thinking? You're making it sound like I'd really hurt Xiao Hao. I was just practicing. How could I possibly let Xiao Hao get hurt? And you guys, you're all so prone to overthinking! You're making me out to be the villain, and then you're making me out to be the prince and princess, and then you're going to wipe me out in the end?"

Zoya, feeling a little guilty after being exposed, turned her head away. Damn it, she hadn't seized such a good opportunity. This Red Wolf was not easy to fool.

"Don't worry, Xiao Hao, just get some rest. I'll take your training step by step, so there's no need to be afraid. Look at how your big brother Wei Long gets beaten up every day, but he's perfectly fine and still as lively as ever."

Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he wouldn't be beaten up. He was almost ready to buy a high-level fighter from 9527. At this time, 9527 was still advising him to save his points for something useful.

"Alright, alright, I won't change it anymore. I'll see if I can call out [Zero] later, hehe."

9527: Wow, this is a real dad. I've probably forgotten all about the quarter I mentioned before. I need to find a time to be honest with him soon.

"Okay, Uncle Red Wolf, I'm going back to sleep now. Good afternoon, everyone!"

Reassured, Zhang Hao greeted everyone with a smile and prepared to go upstairs to sleep. When he passed Luna, he was dragged over and had his stamps put on him a few times. Then he attracted Zoya's attention. After lingering with them for 5 minutes, Zhang Hao finally managed to return to his room and take a nap.

What? You mean Mai Xiaowen? She got caught cheating that day and was punished by the two older women. Now she can only make a few sarcastic remarks and go back to her room to sleep. Now the three of them seem to have a strange balance, checking and balancing each other, and the situation where one person is in charge is no longer happening.

“Roy, tell me honestly, when will Mai Xiaowen’s injury heal? I’ve been helping her with her missions every day, and she’s just lying here trying to seduce my Xiao Hao. I can’t swallow this insult without putting her on the spot.”

As for Roy, who had been watching from the sidelines, he also said that if Mai Xiaowen recovers well, she should be fully recovered within the next two weeks.

Roy: This is going to be fun, hehe, I love watching fun.

Chapter 75 Didi

Zhang Hao then went back to his warm little bed for a good night's sleep. Although his physical fitness has improved a lot, he still wants to get a good night's sleep after each high-intensity training session. Mai Xiaowen laughed and said that he was as lazy as a cat.

After a few idle chats, the rest of the people went back to their rooms to sleep, except for Zoya, who was still in the process of developing the habit of taking a nap, so it was perfectly normal for her not to be able to fall asleep sometimes.

However, due to everyone's strong insistence, Zoya unfortunately couldn't hold a concert in the living room at noon. She could only compete with Mai Xiaowen and Luna for the right to take Zhang Hao's afternoon nap.

Strangely enough, Zoya found that whenever she held Zhang Hao and smelled his fragrance, her sleep quality was always exceptionally good, and the nightmares she used to have turned into...

At that time, Zoya asked Zhang Hao with a serious expression at the dinner table if she could properly "study" his strange body structure. She couldn't believe that a boy could give off such a nice fragrance. That damned Uluru was always smelly, and although the others didn't have much of a smell, how could they compare to the fragrant Xiao Hao?

Of course, this dangerous idea was immediately stopped by Deep Blue, who gave him a Moscow massage and then begged for mercy, promising never to have such a dangerous idea again before letting him off the hook.

Deep Blue: He told me before that Rometheus was clean and odorless, and was either a cross-dresser or gay. But Xiao Hao is a different story. Sigh, I'm getting old and can't keep up with the thinking of young people.

. . . . . . . .

After the alarm clock woke Zhang Hao up, he dressed and went to the gym. Terry had previously set up a large arena there, where he had a "bromance" fight with Red Wolf that day, which left little Zhang Hao dumbfounded.

Zhang Hao: Mom, I want to go home! It's too scary! I can't bear to look!

I never imagined that I, who was just watching the fun from below, would be competing with Uncle Red Wolf up here today, although I'll most likely be utterly crushed.

When Zhang Hao arrived, he found that not only Red Wolf was sitting on top, but also Roy, the entertainer, was sitting below, with Zoya and Deep Blue also sitting to the side.

When Roy saw Zhang Hao coming over, he quickly waved to him.

"Hehehe, Xiao Hao, you can go without worry. I'm here, I guarantee nothing will happen to you. Look, there's Zoya next to you, so you can go on your way with peace of mind."

When Zhang Hao saw this, he was so scared that he almost collapsed to the ground. Wasn't it supposed to be fine? Why were all the doctors from the Special Operations Department here, and Uncle Shen Lan was also holding a shield below? Were they afraid that he would escape and were ready to push him back at any time?

"I...I feel a bit of a stomachache, so let's postpone this practical exercise until next time."

Zhang Hao made a brilliant and shrewd decision: to run away quickly, or he might have met his end here today.

Seeing Zhang Hao trembling in fear, Red Wolf said helplessly:

"Xiao Hao, don't be fooled by Roy. Zoya couldn't sleep, so she dragged Shenlan along to back you up. If I had gone too far, that shield would probably have landed on my head. As for Roy, he's just here to watch the show. After you and I finish sparring, I'll hold him up for you to do whatever you want with him, okay? You're so scared."

After listening, Zhang Hao looked at Luo Yi and saw that Luo Yi's face was red from holding back his laughter. When he saw Zhang Hao looking over, he couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, Xiao Hao, why are you such a coward? Were you trying to run away just now? It's okay, it's okay, this is what they mean by 'discretion is the better part of valor,' I understand, I understand."

Seeing Roy's incredibly irritating expression, Zhang Hao immediately switched to a tearful look and looked at Shen Lan next to Roy.

"Uncle Deep Blue~ Uncle~"

"Hey! What are you doing? I just laughed at you a couple of times, why are you calling for help? Hey! Deep Blue, what are you doing? Let go of me! Help! Murder!"

Upon hearing Zhang Hao summon Deep Blue, Roy sensed something was wrong and tried to escape, but Deep Blue grabbed him forcefully.

Roy panicked, really panicked. How did Xiao Hao learn such petty tricks from spending so much time with these women?

The three women: It's clearly you who's too shameless, you deserve to be hit!

"Xiao Hao, you can go to class without worry. I've caught Roy. I'll lock him up after class, and you can do whatever you want with him."

Having received Deep Blue's assurance, Zhang Hao's expression changed instantly. He looked at Roy with the air of a victor, then tilted his head at a 45-degree angle and gave him a mocking "humph."

Roy: That's not fair! Why should I get beaten up for just talking nonsense? I'm not having it!

Deep Blue, Red Wolf: Go talk to my exoskeleton/shield, we're all trying to live.

So Zhang Hao also came to the arena. Looking at the red wolf in front of him, he was still a little flustered, but he thought that he should be stronger than before, and this was a good opportunity to test himself.

"Uncle Red Wolf, what's your fighting strategy?"

Red Wolf initially wanted to suggest testing his limits, but after being locked onto by two intense gazes from below the stage, he spoke from the heart:

"Don't worry, just focus all your attack on me today, I'll defend. Let's see how good you are."

After he finished speaking, the two intense gazes finally moved away from him, and Red Wolf secretly breathed a sigh of relief. That was terrifying; he almost thought that after teaching Xiao Hao, he was going to be "given extra training" by Deep Blue. Luckily, he reacted quickly.

Upon hearing that he would be in charge of the attack, Zhang Hao felt relieved. At the same time, he recalled the theoretical knowledge that Red Wolf had taught him in class, and today he was putting it into practice.

"Should I buy the limited-time intermediate fighter bundle that only costs 10 points?"

Just then, 9527 started promoting his products to Zhang Hao.

"Hmm? But this time Uncle Red Wolf isn't fighting back, so I just need to attack."

"Oh, you're wrong, completely wrong! Think about it, with just 10 points, you can make them look at you in a new light, and maybe you can even graduate early! Besides, the books you bought for Said cost hundreds of points, and this is only 10 points. This is a discount that I went through a lot of trouble to get for you."

Under 9527's influence, Zhang Hao reluctantly bought it. Instantly, a wealth of knowledge about fighting flooded his mind, and his reaction speed, speed, and endurance were all enhanced.

"This...this power! Uncle Red Wolf, I'm going for it!"

Red Wolf nodded dismissively. Although Xiao Hao had just acted like a chuunibyou for some reason, the difference in strength was undeniable. He could probably take a punch from Red Wolf without any problem.

At this moment, the honest-looking Red Wolf had no idea what he was about to face.

(Thanks to Little Handsome Crane for the extra update!)

Brothers, go home for a short break during the Dragon Boat Festival, I promise there won't be any breaks in June (???`?).

Chapter 76 Dragon Boat Festival Mini-Theater

(It has to be posted at noon since it's Dragon Boat Festival, right? (ˊ?ˋ*))

Zhang Hao: Hello everyone, Happy Dragon Boat Festival! I'm your war correspondent Zhang Hao. Today, I'll show you what everyone is doing during the Dragon Boat Festival.

Zhang Hao: Look, this is our Special Operations Unit's gym. Every morning and afternoon, Uncle Terry will spawn here. Of course, sometimes a disciplined dragon and a fighting wolf will also spawn here.

Zhang Hao: Huh? Everyone, look! There's a wild Uncle Terry here! Wow, he's so disciplined! Doesn't he even take a break on Dragon Boat Festival? Come on, Uncle Terry, say a few words to everyone.

Terry: Huh? Me? Well then, Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone! Although I didn't celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival when I was in the US, I could still see a lot of Chinese specialties in Chinatown. Hmm, I think your zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) are delicious. Um... that's all!

Zhang Hao: Okay, then thank you to our Uncle Terry for his support and encouragement during my interview. Now, everyone, don't worry, we'll go to the second place right away—the infirmary.

Roy: Huh? What are you doing with that camera, Hao? Do you want some handsome photos of your Uncle Roy? Oh, don't be shy, bring it on, I'm ready.

Zoya: You're sick...

Zhang Hao: Luo Yi, be normal. I'm recording everyone's Dragon Boat Festival. Speak properly, or the audience will see all your dirty secrets.

Roy: Why didn't you say so earlier... Hello everyone, Happy Dragon Boat Festival! Remember to go back and reunite with your family. I'm going to call my darling daughter and my dear wife later too. Come on, let me show you my two darlings. Hey, hey, hey, Zoya, what are you doing? Ouch.

Zoya: Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone! Come on, Xiaohao, stop recording and give your sister a kiss.

Zhang Hao: Damn it, Sister Zoya, I'm going to record other people now, bye-bye.

Zhang Hao: Let me think about where to go next. Oh! Let's go to the shooting range. Sister Luna usually goes there to practice archery when she has nothing to do. She's really diligent. It seems she's going to keep Sister Xiaowen busy. Sigh, we might see Sister Xiaowen there too. Let's go, everyone!

Zhang Hao: Wow, everyone's here! Sister Luna! Sister Xiaowen! I'm recording a Dragon Boat Festival vlog for you all. Send your blessings to everyone!

Mai Xiaowen/Luna: Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!

Mai Xiaowen: You little brat, are you still interested in filming this? Did you make salted egg yolk rice dumplings for your sister?

Zhang Hao: Xiaowen, you can just wait to eat lunch. I even specially packed red bean buns for you, Luna.

Luna: Chu~ Thanks, Xiao Hao (glances at Mai Xiaowen), come to my room tonight, I'll show you something "good".

Mai Xiaowen: ╰(艹皿艹) Jin! Lu! Na! Dare to compete with me in iron sights sniping?

Luna: Hmph, you're a defeated opponent. No matter how you try to outsmart me, it won't work.

Zhang Hao: Uh... I'm sorry for making this sound so funny. Let me see where Brother Weilong and Uncle Red Wolf are. Even though they argue every day, they still have a good relationship.

Zhang Hao walked out of the shooting range with his camera and arrived in the living room just in time to find Uluru. Wei Long and Red Wolf were sitting on the sofa drinking beer and bragging.

Uluru: Let me tell you, it was Reese's speed that day, otherwise, if it were me, you'd see what I would have done...

Red Wolf: Hmph, if I weren't in charge of lifting this dragon, I would have activated my exoskeleton, slid in and fired three consecutive hand cannons, and seen if Reese would have survived.

Wei Long: You guys are just bragging. If it really came at you, one elbow and you'd be knocked to the ground. You haven't seen his strength. He could even go toe-to-toe with Shen Lan.

Red Wolf/Uluru: Ugh, you're such a loser. If you ask me...

Zhang Hao: Hey handsome guy over there, could you spare a moment to send your blessings to everyone?

Wei Long: He's calling me! Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!

Red Wolf: Bullshit, doing missions every day and wearing a mask, what's so cool about that? It's definitely me. Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone.

Uluru: Huh? Is it a holiday today? No wonder they told me to clean up the bottles under the bed this morning, hehehe, everyone... It's the Dragon Boat Festival, right? Oh, Happy Dragon Boat Festival! By the way, what's this festival for?

Weilong: You wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you. All you need to know is that there's lots of delicious food today.

Uluru: Oh, okay, I like the Dragon Boat Festival, hehe.

Zhang Hao: Alright, last up is Uncle Shenlan, who's still working hard in the kitchen. Let's go!

Zhang Hao: Uncle Shenlan! I'm here to interview you. Please give our viewers a blessing.

Deep Blue: Yes, happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone! Be happy and leave all your bad moods behind. Have a joyful holiday with your family.

Deep Blue: Xiao Hao, are you done recording? If you are, please call those idle people from Uluru over to serve the food. Dinner is about to start, so please go and call everyone over.

Zhang Hao: OK!
