Chapter 938 - 936: Abuse
CHAPTER 938: CHAPTER 936: ABUSE
Xue Lin happily returned to the Xue Family.
"Little brother!"
Xue Lin excitedly shouted to Xue Kun.
"What’s up?! Sis?!"
Xue Kun instantly perked up: "Did Lu Xiaobu bully you?!"
"No, no! I need to thank you!" Xue Lin hugged Xue Kun, then whispered in his ear, "Although I don’t know what you did! But to make Lu Xiaobu change his mind, you must have gone through a lot!"
She’s not stupid!
On the contrary, she’s incredibly smart!
Who is Lu Xiaobu?!
He’s a man who can spin her around and lead the whole country of Japan by the nose!
Just with her little brother’s IQ, even a hundred of him wouldn’t be enough to match Lu Xiaobu’s fingertip!
But somehow, this silly little brother managed to change Lu Xiaobu’s mind!
It goes to show that her little brother definitely paid a hefty price!
"Nah!" Xue Kun scratched his head and said: "I really didn’t do anything, just muddled my way through!"
He’s telling the truth; he still hasn’t figured out why Lu Xiaobu agreed with him!
"Hahaha! My silly little brother!" Xue Lin laughed joyfully: "Muddling through is great! I got accepted in a muddle too! Hahaha! Let’s go, go, go, you’ve always wanted to change cars, right?! Come on, let’s get you a new car!"
"Really?!" Xue Kun was instantly delighted.
"Would I lie to you?!" Xue Lin dragged Xue Kun out.
They didn’t notice Xue Changzhi standing inside the room watching this scene.
"Ah! As long as they’re happy!"
Xue Changzhi sighed!
It’s really tough for him, as a father, he hoped Xue Lin could be with someone she loves and who aligns with his wishes.
But as the head of the Xue Family, he couldn’t let Xue Lin leave!
...
As evening approached!
The entire Xue Family was in chaos!
Because the Xue Family’s young lady was actually doing chores!
Oh my goodness!
In the kitchen.
Xue Lin gingerly walked out while holding a bowl, her eyes staring at the swaying porridge.
Everyone who’s ever carried food knows that the bowl isn’t hot at first, but gradually becomes scalding!
Especially when it’s full and you’re walking slowly!
So!
"Ouch! Hot! Hot!"
Xue Lin suddenly screamed and threw the bowl out!
Ever since she was small, she never touched household chores, with skin as delicate as can be, and suddenly being scalded felt life-threatening!
The nearby servants slapped their foreheads, nearly collapsing!
They had said that just a little would do!
But for some reason, the young lady insisted on filling it right up!
This isn’t like pouring a drink, where filling it to the brim shows sincerity!
They looked at the pile of broken bowl pieces and porridge all over the floor, utterly helpless!
At this rate, they’d have to cook again!
An entire pot of porridge, all spilled on the ground!
And, young lady, are you sure you don’t want us to clean this up?!
Soon there’s going to be no place to stand!
Meanwhile!
Xue Changzhi and Xue Kun sat in the main hall, both looking in distress!
"Crack!"
A clear sound echoed!
"Analyzing the sound, it’s from the kitchen, it should be sis breaking the eighth bowl!" Xue Kun said with a bitter smile.
"It’s the ninth; there were two overlapping sounds earlier!" Xue Changzhi said while rubbing his forehead.
"Alright, never mind which number! Dad, I’m just wondering if we can still have dinner tonight?!" Xue Kun said miserably.
Originally, the Xue Family had dinner at six.
But now, it’s already eight, and the meal hasn’t even left the kitchen!
At this rate, it’ll soon be time to eat a late-night snack!
Additionally, those who train in martial arts consume a lot, and now their stomachs are practically empty!
"Let’s wait! Your sister finally wants to serve others, and you’re not willing!" Xue Changzhi admonished: "Besides, do you know what happens if you upset your sister?!"
"I understand all that! But, Dad, can you at least share some peanuts with me?!"
Xue Kun, eyeing the peanuts that Xue Changzhi was gulping down, asked while drooling!
"Get lost! These are my snacks with wine! You can’t have any!" Xue Changzhi immediately said.
"Snacks with wine?! Where’s the wine?" Xue Kun was speechless; are you trying to fool a child?!
My sister said she’d pour you some wine when she came!
Yet your wine glass is still empty, and you call it snacks with wine!
You’re just hungry, using the snacks as a meal!
"Don’t question me! The wine doesn’t intoxicate and people get drunk on their own, don’t you understand?!" Xue Changzhi rolled his eyes and said.
Another half an hour passed.
Finally!
After the servants secretly lowered the temperature of the porridge, Xue Lin appeared in the hall with two bowls of porridge.
Immediately, Xue Changzhi and Xue Kun exhaled a long sigh of relief!
"Alright, eat! Dad, I’ll pour you some wine!"
Xue Lin nodded contentedly, marking this as a phase victory!
The first step of a long journey!
Xue Changzhi nodded and then picked up the porridge!
At this moment, who cares about wine!
He was starving to the point of desperation!
He was fast, but peanut-less Xue Kun was faster, as he downed the porridge!
Then!
Instantly, Xue Kun’s face turned green!
"Argh!"
A huge mouthful was spit out!
"Who made this meal?!" Xue Kun was angry: "Does your house sell salt?!"
They had no idea; he could even taste grainy salt!
Who knows how much salt was added!
"I made it! Is it that salty?" Xue Lin said unhappily, seeing Xue Kun spit out the porridge.
Having cooked for the first time, only to be criticized!
Even after she followed the advice, giving up on cooking and opting to make porridge!
"Sis?! You made it?!" Xue Kun felt as if a cold bucket of water had been poured over him.
"Yes!" Xue Lin nodded, still very unhappy—hmpf! Everyone disliked it!
"Look at that, no poise! It’s actually not that bad!"
Xue Changzhi was holding the porridge, spooning it slowly as he spoke.
Thank goodness, Xue Kun drank quickly!
My goodness! Just a little makes my throat feel scorched!
"Xue Kun, look at Dad! That’s the difference!" Xue Lin laughed: "Dad, if you like it, have more; there’s still some in the kitchen, I’ll get it for you!"
"No! No need! You should take a break!" Xue Changzhi quickly said.
But, it was too late!
"It’s fine! I’m very happy! Dad, I know you have a big appetite! I’ll get you more!"
Xue Lin happily headed to the kitchen.
Xue Kun laughed: "Dad! Dumbstruck, right?! Trying to show off! Hahaha!"
"You brat, daring to mock your dad?! I’ll punish you by making you drink both bowls!" Xue Changzhi immediately said sternly: "And before your sister brings out the next bowl!"
"Help!" Xue Kun quickly went crazy!
My goodness!
Drinking two bowls of salty porridge, no, that’s basically eating two bowls of salty salt!
And before his sister returns?!
This kind of torture!
While the Xue Family was having this "harmonious" time, a group of people was heading straight to the Xue Family!
This group was Lin Feng’s plan!
