Free Web NovelChapter 1650: Chapter 1630:
"Ouch!"
A cry of pain abruptly halted the discussion, causing everyone to turn around. They saw an elderly person lying between An Hao and Zhang Sheng, crying out in agony with a face full of pain.
"Eh?" Luo Qianqian was taken aback. What was going on now? Don’t tell her An Hao and Zhang Sheng didn’t notice and accidentally hit the elderly person?
Considering the training environment of Zhang Sheng and An Hao, they had to be fully aware and alert. How could it be possible for them not to notice someone approaching, and then go ahead and hit them?
Moreover, someone who’d really been hit by their attacks should be unable to cry out due to the pain, right?
Quickly, both Luo Shufan and Luo Qianqian guessed what was going on. It was clearly a deliberate attempt to extort them.
Zhang Sheng and An Hao stopped their actions too, but neither showed any intention of helping the elderly person up.
Seeing people looking over, An Hao glanced innocently at Zhang Sheng, blinking his big eyes.
Zhang Sheng felt lines forming across his forehead; why did it seem like this little kid had an old monster living in his heart?
"Ouch, ouch, it hurts! I’ve been hit!" The elderly person on the ground, seeing neither move, grew irritated. "People nowadays, hitting someone without helping them up?"
An Hao shrugged, rubbed his belly indifferently, and said, "Hungry, going to find sister." With that, he walked off on his own, knowing that as a child, no one could really stop him. He could always cry if need be, like those fellow Demon Lords of Mayhem who caused chaos at Nine Heavens Pavilion when they cried.
Hey, hey, hey...
Zhang Sheng looked in disbelief at An Hao who had already walked away. The camaraderie they shared moments ago vanished into thin air, leaving him alone?
If the elderly person had been hit by their attacks, could he still lie there groaning? Likely, his old bones would be shattered if that were the case!
"Sister, hungry," An Hao toddled back, but didn’t pounce on Luo Qianqian, instead pouting in discontent, "Shouldn’t have fought knowing I’d sweat all over. How could sister hug me now..."
Luo Qianqian chuckled, "Come sit, I’ll wipe you off," patting the spot beside her, her face gentle and smiling. "Want some milk or would you prefer a warm meal at home?"
An Hao’s eyes darted around. "If sister goes home, I’ll go home. If sister doesn’t, I’ll have milk. Though I’d prefer a meal, I like eating with sister more."
Luo Shufan: "..." See, the brother has no status.
"Sister has something to do soon. Wouldn’t it be great for An Hao to go home with brother?" Luo Qianqian looked amused and exasperated. Why did An Hao think so much before answering? Was he conditioned by too many tricks making him reflexively cautious?
"No, I want sister." An Hao glanced at Luo Shufan, amending his words, "Though brother is nice too, I prefer sister."
Luo Shufan: "..." This little rascal isn’t my real brother! Other kids prefer their brothers, but my brother prefers his sister. What logic is this??
"Alright then..." Luo Qianqian compromised, unable to resist An Hao’s pitiful gaze.
Luo Shufan’s eyes widened, "Why can An Hao have it his way but not me? Qianqian, who’s your brother?"
"Certainly not An Hao."
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes. Even if An Hao wanted to be her brother, he’s too young, just a Little One for now.
Luo Shufan looked dissatisfied at Luo Qianqian.
Luo Qianqian sighed, "I’ll take you home and talk later! You two truly are siblings from the same mother!"
"Sister, you’re born from mom too," An Hao earnestly corrected.
Luo Shufan nodded in agreement.
Luo Qianqian: "..."
Alright then, no one in this family is easy to fool!
Soon after, the three were leisurely drinking milk, happily watching Zhang Sheng’s predicament.
By now, Zhang Sheng had been grabbed by the pants, standing there innocently looking towards Luo Qianqian and the others, noticing those siblings all drinking milk like as if enjoying a show...
"Oh dear, oh dear, hit someone and then ignore it!"
"This is intolerable, help, I’m dying!"
"Oh dear, my head is spinning, my heart aches!"
"Ouch, ouch, my stomach!"
Zhang Sheng paused momentarily and took out his phone, "Hello, I’d like to report an incident."
At Zhang Sheng’s words, the elderly person promptly stood up, displeased at Zhang Sheng, "You cunning brat!"
With that, quickly turned and left.
Yet Zhang Sheng shrugged, "Not easily scared, huh."
The phone screen still displayed the dialer.
If they didn’t even know if they’d hit someone, how are they supposed to get by? Not only were they sure they hadn’t hit, even if they had, it would certainly be planned; who would randomly walk to the middle of a fighting area intentionally? Clearly looking for trouble?
Even if he’s not foolish, even a fool would know about the power they wield. If truly impacted, he’d not need to extort them, they’d truly be held accountable.
But where did this person come from?
"It’s professional begging, now dabbling in extortion." Du Yikuo stated calmly, obviously very informed about this person’s background. "Previously, I was startled by him, falling in front of my car, asking for three thousand bucks. But I wasn’t in a rush that day, it was pretty hot, so I played two games with the AC on and he left on his own."
"..." Du Yiyan expressed his frustration wordlessly. His brother often acts out of the ordinary.
"Continuing?" Zhang Sheng approached An Hao, admiring him, then turning to Luo Qianqian, "This child has potential, with time..."
"Don’t praise him, he still has room to grow," Luo Qianqian calmly pinched An Hao’s cheek, "Of course my brother is excellent, since the older brother is excellent too, how else would he protect me, right?"
"Right!" An Hao happily echoed aloud.
Luo Shufan also smiled, shaking his head helplessly, this kid, boastful to the point feathers might fall.
"Indeed, considering he’s still young." Zhang Sheng nodded in agreement with Luo Qianqian’s words.
An Hao nodded smilingly, for he was indeed young, excellent, and a fantastic person.
"Uh... about that matter..." Zhang Sheng anxiously glanced at Luo Qianqian.
Luo Qianqian nodded, "Come to my place later; my brother and little brother worry about me and will accompany me. But you can dismiss your backup troops, my home’s not a place for tours."
Du Yiyan sensibly lowered his head upon hearing this, glanced at his watch and hurriedly said, "Ah, I need to go to work. We’ll go now, see you another day!"
With that, they bid goodbye and left...
