Chapter 26: His Pretty Baby Must Be Watch Closely!
As soon as these words came out, the big boar’s front hooves, which were raised high, flashed to the side and landed heavily just an inch beside Auntie Zhang.
Two deep pits were smashed into the hard mud ground.
It stopped moving, its small eyes staring dead at Auntie Zhang.
Zhang Jiaxing gasped for heavy breaths and shouted, “Mom, speak quickly, what exactly happened?”
Auntie Zhang’s eyes were red: “Da Niu (Big Girl) was… killed by me and your father!”
Following Auntie Zhang’s intermittent confession, a tragic story was pieced together.
More than twenty years ago, the Zhang family was very poor.
The first child born was a daughter.
The Zhang couple was very unhappy.
Fortunately, the second child was finally a son.
They gave all their energy and love to this precious son.
One night, the six-year-old daughter was beaten severely for stealing an egg to eat.
Unexpectedly, the child vomited a few mouthfuls of blood that night and fell unconscious.
The Zhang couple knew they had caused trouble. They didn’t want to send their daughter to the hospital, fearing legal responsibility.
The two discussed it and decided to go all the way; they simply threw their dying daughter into the pigsty in the corner of the yard.
Firstly to destroy the corpse and traces, and secondly, to improve the diet of their money-making tool.
That pig wasn’t big at that time, and because the family was poor, feeding was erratic.
So seeing fresh meat, it immediately got excited.
Just like that, the pitiful daughter ended up buried in the pig’s mouth.
When this bloody old event buried for more than a dozen years surfaced, the livestream room exploded.
Netizens cursed the Zhang couple violently.
The comment section was filled with sighs of lament.
Zhang Jiaxing was also dumbfounded.
His parents always said his sister died in an accident.
He never imagined that his dear dad and mom could be so cruel and cold-blooded toward his sister.
At this time, the big boar quieted down.
It slowly strolled toward Zhang Jiaxing.
It stopped a meter or two away from him, stared at him with its small eyes, and looked.
Suddenly, the big pig’s body went stiff.
Immediately after, as if its soul had been extracted, it fell straight to the ground.
With a loud BOOM, there was no more movement.
Bullet comments flew all over the livestream room.
Everyone expressed their opinions on this treacherous event.
At the same time, the lights of Rocket, Cruise Ship, and Carnival gifts illuminated the screen as bright as snow, like fireworks on New Year’s Eve.
[Little Master Qingzhou is awesome! Among metaphysics bloggers, besides Jiang Ye, I only submit to him!]
[When is Brother Qingzhou starting a livestream! My bestie group and I will be your fans!]
[With this looks, he could obviously make a living with his face, yet he insists on relying on his Daoist skills!]
Old Feng spoke up: “Brother Zhang, this is the Disaster Star of your parents. Sorry I couldn’t break it for them in time!”
“Karma cycles, retribution is unfailing. People of the world should not do evil; doing evil eventually harms oneself!”
“I won’t charge you for this hexagram. Go offline! My condolences, handle the funeral properly!”
Zhang Jiaxing nodded stiffly, still in a daze.
It was unknown if he was sad for his old father, grieving for his sister, or heartbroken over his parents’ evil deeds.
Old Feng cut the video signal from that end.
The netizens started discussing again.
[Just saying, why didn’t the sister’s ghost come for revenge for so many years, but chose today specifically?]
[Upstairs +1! Could it be because she knew there was a livestream today and wanted the Master to redress her grievance?]
Old Feng read the comments and looked at Lin Yuan. “Brother Qingzhou, what do you think?”
Lin Yuan thought for a moment. “Speaking of which, I’m actually only proficient in divination techniques; the rest is speculation. I think, could it be related to the longevity tablet Little Zhang brought back?”
Old Feng nodded. “I think so too.”
“Before, the sister might have just been a wandering soul, unable to take revenge. Brother Zhang made an offering tablet for her and even brought it back, so…”
Old Feng didn’t continue.
Everyone understood that, in the end, it was Zhang Jiaxing who brought this calamity to his parents.
But could he be blamed?
Netizens in the comment section were still buzzing with discussion.
Lin Yuan nodded to Old Feng. “Uncle Feng, then I’m going offline.”
Old Feng: “Brother Qingzhou, you are welcome to come to my livestream room often in the future!”
Lin Yuan smiled. “Okay!”
On the other end, Shen Yanzhou watched Lin Yuan strategizing and handling things with ease in the livestream room, being praised by so many people.
The corners of his lips rose unknowingly, yet he felt a bit nervous.
His little treasure was not only outrageously beautiful but also so capable. If he let him out, who knows how many people would snatch him.
He had to watch him closely!
In the evening, as soon as Shen Yanzhou finished work, he immediately returned to the Junting Shengshi Villa.
Uncle Chen welcomed him. “Young Master is back.”
“Mn. Where is he?”
Uncle Chen: “Mr. Lin is in the study.”
“How is his mood today?”
Uncle Chen looked at the hidden expectation in his young master’s eyes and felt a bit awkward.
He paused. “Uh, it’s okay. I took Mr. Lin to get familiar with the environment in the villa.”
He didn’t say the second half of the sentence.
Lin Yuan lacked interest the whole time and had absolutely no interest in this huge villa comparable to a small manor.
Uncle Chen’s half-sentence brought joy to Shen Yanzhou’s eyes.
“How was his meal today?”
Uncle Chen: “He ate some breakfast. Lunch… Mr. Lin said he had no appetite.”
The joy in Shen Yanzhou’s eyes slowly disappeared.
He pinched his chin and thought for a moment. “Go to a Michelin-starred restaurant tomorrow and hire two chefs to come back.”
Uncle Chen nodded.
He wanted to tell him that if the mood was bad, even dragon liver and phoenix marrow would be tasteless.
But he held back.
Because he was very worried that with his young master’s temper, he would torment the person into crying and making a fuss again, forcing him to be in a good mood.
“Young Master, Mr. Lin is young. Staying at home all the time, he might be a bit bored.” Uncle Chen hinted carefully and strategically.
Shen Yanzhou pursed his lips. “Mn, I’ll ask him what he likes to play, add a few game consoles or something else.”
Uncle Chen: …
Fine!
Shen Yanzhou turned and strode upstairs.
Walking to the study door, he pushed it open and entered.
Seeing him come in, Lin Yuan stood up properly again.
“Ge,” he greeted, his voice lifeless.
Shen Yanzhou’s brow furrowed slightly.
He didn’t say anything.
He took out a delicate small box from his bag.
Walked up and handed it over.
“Open it and take a look,” he said, his voice containing a smile.
Lin Yuan took it and unwrapped the beautiful packaging.
Inside was a box of colorful candies.
Lin Yuan stared at the box and realized they were all mint-flavored candies.
He looked up at Shen Yanzhou. “For me?”
Shen Yanzhou’s eyes were full of smiles. “Mn. Don’t you like eating mint candy?”
Lin Yuan tilted his head slightly. “How did you know I like eating mint candy?”
A trace of small smugness appeared on Shen Yanzhou’s handsome face.
“Saw you had a lot in your bag.”
Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan curled his lips. “I hate mint candy the most!”
Shen Yanzhou: …
Is he sick? If he hates mint candy the most, why carry so much?
His eye color turned cold, his gaze fixed fiercely on him, and he asked in a deep voice, “Do you hate mint candy, or do you hate the mint candy I gave you?”
