Chapter 105 - From Cocoon to Butterfly
Chapter 105: From Cocoon to Butterfly
Looking at the excited children, Xiao Ying was also moved, and a sense of heroism surged in her heart. She couldn’t help but say, “The fairies in your hands are a part of the fairy tree. Without the fairies, the fairy tree is only a big tree. It was each of you who created this fairy tree, and it was you who created this world.”
“In the future, there will surely be a place for you in this world. Children, work hard to shine. The peak of the future will definitely have your mark.”
Xiao Ying pointed firmly at the horizon. The children followed her hand, and their eyes gradually became resolute.
Their eyes were each lit aglow.
Only one child was standing in a corner, staring blankly at the butterfly in his hand.
Suddenly, he was pulled out by a dignified woman.
With an angry expression, she asked Xiao Ying, “Back then, my son made the ants together with them. Why didn’t my child participate in the city’s competition? My son didn’t get a share of the first-place prize either.”
It was only after she saw the child did Xiao Ying recognize the woman.
Zhou Yang grabbed the woman’s hand and continuously retreated, but his strength was still too weak to move her.
Xiao Ying said, “Madam, they signed up for the competition voluntarily. You didn’t register your child for the city’s primary school inventor’s competition, right?”

The woman froze and opened her mouth to retort but couldn’t think of anything to say.
Xiao Ying looked at the brooding Zhou Yang and smiled, saying, “What did you get earlier?”
Zhou Yang dazedly showed her the butterfly.
The woman hooted again. “How can this stupid thing compare to the first-place prize? Quickly throw it away.”
With that, she turned to leave with him.
He was pulled back by Xiao Ying.
Before the woman lost her temper, Xiao Ying quickly said, “Butterflies are very beautiful, but they can only become butterflies after breaking out of their cocoons. Before becoming butterflies, we have to experience the process of breaking out of our cocoons.”
With that, she placed something else in his hand.
Zhou Yang still ended up being pulled away by the woman.
He kept turning back to look at Xiao Ying. This big sister’s smile was very warm.
He looked down and saw an ant in his hand.
Recognizing that it was the one that the woman had thrown away, Zhou Yang stared at it in a daze. It had already been repaired by Xiao Ying.
It looked even better than the original, but it was still obvious that it had been damaged before.
Tears suddenly fell from Zhou Yang’s eyes, but he did not make a sound, biting his lip as he held them back.
When the competition ended, Cheng Yang came to Xiao Ying’s side and looked at her with a glint in his eyes.
Xiao Ying stood dazedly in place, not knowing how to face him.
Cheng Yang naturally knew her well and said, “I won’t force you, but can you give me a chance?”
She had never seen such a pitiful Cheng Yang before, and nodded unconsciously.
Cheng Yang continued, “So, can you move back?”
Just as Xiao Ying was about to nod, she came to her senses and pushed Cheng Yang’s head away. “No.”
She thought to herself: That was close, I almost fell for it.
Cheng Yang smiled, a sly glint in his eyes. “Okay then.”
Xiao Ying was puzzled as to why he was agreeing so readily.
When she returned to the apartment and saw that it was filled with Cheng Yang’s things, she knew what he was planning.
Cheng Yang dodged in before she could get angry.
Xiao Ying could only helplessly accept this reality.
Today’s competition was live-broadcasted by the media on the internet, and articles about it were being published one by one.
The general consensus was that this was the type of childhood and games that children should have, instead of wasting their youth on phones, computers, and other electronics.
A netizen said, “Xiao Ying’s words have moved even an adult like me.”
Xiao Ying’s identity was quickly dug out. Only then did they realize that she was the genius girl who had become famous in ‘Super Speaker’.
There were also netizens who questioned Xiao Ying’s qualifications as a mere college student to host such a competition.
