CHAPTER 327: CHAPTER 327: MIAOMIAO: QUARREL

Tuanzi thinks she’s fierce, but those who know her don’t think she’s fierce enough.

But this attitude was enough to provoke Old Sir Jin on the other end of the phone.

The old sir has lived for so long and has rarely suffered grievances, not even at work. At home, neither his deceased spouse nor his children have really given him a hard time.

Although a few of his older children would occasionally argue back, they eventually went along with him. Only his youngest daughter was really stubborn, first refusing to marry as he wished, and later not even coming home.

And now, there was one more person daring to defy him.

In the same place as his eldest grandson, and with such a childlike voice, the identity of the little kid was quite obvious. It was his youngest daughter’s daughter, a granddaughter who wouldn’t even look at him even if she came back.

However, he wasn’t welcoming to this child unless she admitted her mother’s wrongdoing.

Tuanzi didn’t expect the other side to be silent for so long and hurriedly shouted into the phone, "Hey, hey, hey, are you still there? Did you just leave after I said a few words?"

An outsider might think she had said something mean.

In fact, she didn’t even know how to curse someone out.

Her big brother wouldn’t let her learn how to curse like others, saying it would make her mouth rot. She definitely didn’t want her mouth to rot.

"Hmph," came the angry voice from the other end of the line, "You’re rude. Didn’t the adults in your family teach you how to address people?"

Tuanzi tilted her head.

Was this demanding her to call him ’grandfather’?

Well, it’s not impossible; it’s a fact. But according to what everyone’s described, if she called him ’grandfather’, he would probably reply with ’I’m not your grandfather; I don’t have a granddaughter like you.’ So why bother calling him and looking for trouble?

Tuanzi thought for a moment and said, "Then you aren’t polite, either. Didn’t the kids in your family teach you how to address people?"

On the other end, Old Sir Jin was furious.

This temper was exactly the same as Jin Lin’s!

"You’re just like your mother—so unruly!"

Tuanzi felt a bit upset.

It’s fine to scold her, but why scold her mother? This old man is truly irrational.

Her dark eyes darted around.

This was a rare opportunity; of course, she had to stand up for her mom.

Although she didn’t fully grasp the essence of arguing or insulting, based on her past experiences following her master into duels, she understood how to make someone jump up and down in anger.

"Really?"

Tuanzi’s voice was sweet as honey. In fact, she was happily swaying her little body, "Am I really just like mom? Then it proves we’re biological, destined to be mother and daughter~"

Old Sir Jin: Rage in vain.jpg

Jin Chunting rushed over and heard this, couldn’t help but chuckle.

But when his gaze fell on the phone, his smile faded a bit.

Grandpa was already so unkind when talking to him. It was probably worse when communicating with his little aunt’s daughter.

He had lived with Grandpa for many years, so he was used to it. Of course, it was hurtful, but he was numb. But letting his cousin get hurt? That’s not good.

"Miaomiao, hand me the phone."

He bent down and held out his hand to Tuanzi.

Tuanzi looked up at him and saw he still had that gentle demeanor, though he wasn’t very happy.

The old man was being unreasonable, so why follow his ways?

This cousin, she thought, was too gentle. He should resist. There was no reason to make elders happy while suffering yourself. She could guess his mindset: Old Sir Jin was old, and he was afraid he might suffer a fit of rage. But if cousin kept swallowing his grievances, couldn’t that also lead to trouble?

If not mutual respect, then mutual distance.

"Okay, but you can’t indulge him anymore."

Reluctantly, Tuanzi handed over the phone, but before Jin Chunting could grab it, Old Sir Jin’s roar came through.

"Hey!"

Fuming, Tuanzi pulled back her hand and continued babbling.

"Hearing your voice, you’re quite healthy!"

This voice, full of energy, and someone who’s always angry can easily fall sick, yet this person didn’t. Clearly, they vent their anger immediately, make others suffer, and end up not being angry themselves and thus not falling sick, right?

If a sensitive person lived under the same roof as this person, wow, that would be a nightmare.

Tuanzi looked at Jin Chunting’s awkward expression with sympathy and continued to babble.

"Want to talk to cousin Chunting? I won’t let you, hehe, hanging up now!"

She hung up straight away, pinched the phone, and hid her small hand behind her back.

"Brother Chunting," acting as if nothing had happened, she warmly invited him to the rescue center, "Shall we go see Mama Wolf together?"

Seeing Jin Chunting’s gaze drifting behind her, she pleaded, "Brother, don’t you want to know how Mama Wolf’s injuries are? Internal injuries are hard to treat."

Actually, she heard from her senior brother that he secretly used Inner Strength True Qi to help treat, which could maintain Mama Wolf’s basic life signs. As long as the vets made an effort, Mama Wolf could surely be cured.

Jin Chunting could only agree, watching helplessly as his cousin gathered a group of children, and they ’swarmed’ to the rescue center.

Director Chen, upon learning the good news from the staff, started a live broadcast and had the cameraman follow with the camera.

If it’s good news, it should naturally be shared with the audience.

With the kids gone, the adults followed suit.

Spotting his sister stuffing a phone into her pocket, Gu Che gave Jin Chunting a meaningful look.

Jin Chunting, who previously said he wanted to avoid the camera, was now exposed in front of it.

He wasn’t actually concerned about the camera; he had only mentioned avoiding it earlier for fear of making grandpa angry.

But now, if he refused his cousin’s invitation, she might be upset, right?

Perhaps too angry or too embarrassed to keep redialing and arguing with a child, Old Sir Jin didn’t call back.

With no urgent matters at this time, Jin Chunting didn’t rush to get the phone back, and instead watched his cousin with smiling eyes as she hid the phone with a proud little expression.

When the rescue center received the news and saw the large group arriving, they were not surprised and took them straight to where Mama Wolf was being treated.

A vet happened to come out, his clothes stained with blood.

Seeing everyone, he greeted them warmly and patiently answered the kids’ chattering questions.

"Mama Wolf is asleep now and in good condition. We originally thought, given its appearance, its internal injuries were severe. If the internal organs were too damaged, we... but thankfully, it just looked serious. After stitching and a few months’ recuperation, it will fully recover."

The kids immediately cheered.

Tuanzi sweetly said, "Thank you, brother!"

The vet immediately smiled, eyes narrowed.

Yang Heng gave the vet a glance and moved next to Wu Yu, "Why did Miaomiao call him brother? He’s obviously an uncle."

With a beard like that, he must be an uncle.

Wu Yu moved a step away, "Then go call him uncle."

Yang Heng really went over and called crisply, "Uncle, can I take care of the wolf cub? I even brought goat milk."

The young vet: "..." He just looked old but wasn’t really old.

The vet smiled faintly, "No, you can’t."

Yang Heng: "Huh?"
