HPDBC Chapter 268 Summoned Parents
Chapter 268 Summoned Parents
The bodyguard treated Zhouzhou like a little ancestor, but Zhouzhou herself remained unchanged. Her routine of attending classes in the morning, devouring twenty bowls of rice at lunch, and playing in the afternoon continued. The only difference was her occasional fretting over how to earn money, leading to a slightly bald appearance from all the stress.@@@@
During the afternoon activity time, Zhouzhou declined invitations to play from her friends. She sat on the steps, supporting her chubby cheeks with her hands, sighing occasionally. Qin Feng and Huo Ji'an sat beside her, while the bodyguard peeled sunflower seeds for her. Curious about her demeanor, he asked, "Zhouzhou, what's wrong today? Are you unhappy?"
"Yeah, all my money is gone. I'm thinking about how to earn more."
Earn money? That's easy.
The bodyguard suggested, "Aren't you good at healing? You can make money by treating people!"
Zhouzhou shook her head. "I've already done that. I give the medicine I make to Hanqiu to sell, and he gives me a share every month."
Oh, that's how it is.
The bodyguard thought for a moment but couldn't come up with anything else. Zhouzhou was also at a loss. Drawing talismans was forbidden by her dad outside the home, and the income from medicine was stable. Her gaming company also paid her monthly, and she heard there would be dividends at the end of the year. She didn't understand what dividends were, but as long as it meant more money, it was fine.
Her dad often gave her money, but that didn't count. It wasn't earned through her own effort, so it couldn't be converted into the merit needed for her master. The merit she needed had to come from her own hard work. Her master required so much gold light that it would take several mountains of gold to restore him.
But how could she earn that much money?
Just as she was pondering, Qin Nan came running over, looking battered with a nosebleed flying in the wind.
Scanning the area quickly, he locked eyes on Zhouzhou and shouted, "Zhouzhou, help!"
Startled, Zhouzhou looked up and, seeing his state, asked, "Fifth Brother, what happened to you?"
Without another word, Qin Nan grabbed her and ran, shouting, "Sixth Brother is fighting with someone, and we can't beat him. Come help us!"
What? A fight!
She wanted to see who dared to bully her brother!
Concerned, Qin Feng and the others hurriedly followed.
In contrast, a chubby boy cowered in the corner, trembling with fear, his eyes full of terror. A similarly stout woman, her face full of anger, stood nearby, glaring at Zhouzhou and speaking harshly.
"You little brat, how dare you hit my son? I'll beat you to death!" she shouted, rolling up her sleeves and swinging her large hand towards Zhouzhou's face.
The bodyguard's eyes flashed with anger, ready to act, but a hand swiftly caught the woman's wrist first. With a slight exertion of force, a scream like that of a slaughtered pig filled the room.
A cold voice sounded in her ear, "Who do you think you're going to hit?"
Zhouzhou's eyes lit up upon seeing him and she jumped off the chair, happily hugging his leg, "Daddy!"
Qin Lie glanced at her, gently patting her head with one hand, then covered her eyes with his large palm. In the next moment, he extended his leg, sending the woman flying until she slammed into the wall, finally coming to a stop.
The woman crashed to the ground with a thud, causing the floor to tremble slightly. The teachers in the office shivered at the sight, feeling a mix of shock and satisfaction.
The chubby boy had often bullied other kids and showed little respect to the teachers. His mother was equally unreasonable, treating them like nannies and solving problems with money whenever her son caused trouble. Now, she had finally met her match.
After kicking the woman away, Qin Lie released Zhouzhou, sat down with her on his lap, and said authoritatively, "Alright, tell me what happened."
Seeing him, Qin Nan and Qin Bei immediately started talking over each other, recounting the events in a rush.
"The chubby boy said that mom looked like an idiot on TV shows, only spending money and not knowing how to take care of kids. He said she's useless."
"He even insulted dad. He wasn't wrong about that, but insulting mom is unacceptable!"
"That's right!" Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, baring her little teeth and glaring fiercely at the chubby boy and his mother.
The three siblings showed no awareness of their blatant favoritism.
Just arriving at the door, Qin Yan felt as if a knife had been thrust into his chest.
What did they mean by saying it wasn't wrong to insult him!
Doesn't he have any feelings!
