Lauren was elated. Did this mean that she would be able to solve more math problems?!

For the next few days, life in kindergarten was pretty much the same. Apart from not becoming good friends with Ruby, Lauren had a lot of fun.

However, something happened on Friday that made the entire class admire Ruby.

Friday afternoon was the happiest time for the children. They could leave school an hour early on Friday, and there would also be no classes in the afternoon. The teachers would take out toys for the children to play among themselves.

Lauren asked the teacher for a few pieces of square paper. She planned to fold a few thousand origami cranes and give them to Quinn, Mr. Hayes and Ben as a gift.

Lauren quietly folded the paper while Joie looked on to prevent Lauren from making another mistake.

Milo was playing with blocks and marbles with a few children not far from them.

Suddenly, Milo began to cough. Everyone thought that he was not feeling well all of a sudden. They did not expect his face to turn green.

The children, who were playing with Milo, started to get scared and went to look for their teachers.

Joie and Lauren were also frightened. They quickly went over to see what was wrong with Milo.

They saw Milo standing there coughing non-stop. His face was getting paler and paler as if he could not breathe.

A child beside him said, “He had a marble in his mouth just now, I don’t know if he swallowed it.”

Lauren was shocked. Milo must have choked!

She had learned first aid before and immediately thought of the Heimlich maneuver.

However, it was obvious that she was not the only one who thought of this method because Ruby was faster than her.

While the other children were still in shock and fear, Ruby had calmly walked to Milo’s side.

Ruby was shorter than Milo as she was a girl and also younger than Milo, which made it not conducive to perform the first aid.

However, at that moment, Ruby seemed to have exerted a lot of strength. She hugged Milo from behind and used a very professional method to press down on Milo’s abdomen.

At that moment, Lauren could not understand how Ruby could release such a large amount of strength with her small body.

There were a few times when Milo was almost lifted up by her.

When Carina and the other teachers rushed over, Milo had already spat out the marble that he had swallowed.

His expression had already returned to normal. He was now sitting and panting on the chair, looking a little scared.

At this moment, Ruby was also sitting on the chair. As she had used too much strength just now, her little face was now red.

Carina quickly contacted the school’s infirmary doctor to check on Milo. Fortunately, everything was normal.

Due to this small incident, the children did not continue playing with the toys.

Carina had already called Milo’s parents and asked them to pick him up early.

Then, Carina held a meeting in the kindergarten class.

First, she scolded Milo for putting the toys in his mouth, and then she praised Ruby.

“Ruby was excellent just now. She didn’t panic in the face of danger and saved Milo. Ruby, can you tell us what method you have used?”

Ruby was pulled to Carina’s side.

“The method I used is called the Heimlich maneuver. This method can be used to save those who are choked.”

The children were surprised again. So, Ruby could talk so much in a go!

“I think everyone should learn this method, so that in the future, when we encounter similar situation, we will not miss the crucial time.”

Everyone was silent. It was not that the children did not want to react, but they did not understand what Ruby was saying at all!

They had never heard of Heimlich.

The first to applaud was Lauren.

Lauren knew about this first aid method. She had watched the video when she was studying, but she had never practiced it herself. So, if she was asked to do it, she might not be able to do it better than Ruby.

Ruby was very skillful, as if she had done it many times.

Lauren was the most popular person in the class recently. When she clapped, the other children around her also clapped along with her.

After receiving praises from the teachers and other students, Ruby, who was on stage, suddenly looked a little shy. She lowered her head slightly, and Lauren could see her smile.
