Chapter 51 The puppy is punished for his mischief
He didn't want to get out, so he opened the door, walked in, closed it again, and locked it.
Shen Cinian was originally sitting at the table. When he saw him come in, he turned his chair to face him.
He didn't say anything, but his eyes were extremely cold.
"I... explained," Fang Ke suddenly felt a little nervous. He was very afraid of the person in front of him at that moment, but finally he took a deep breath, "I didn't... betray... you."
"I only want you...and only you..."
It sounded a bit touching, like some kind of oath, but Shen Ci Nian looked at him indifferently.
His fingers began to tremble slightly.
"So you're deliberately teasing me, aren't you? You want me to drop everything and go find you, to lose all my dignity and get mad at you, and you'll be satisfied, right?"
"I……"
"Shut up," Chen Cinian suddenly shouted, "Don't force me to slap you in the mouth with a belt!"
Fang Ke was stunned for a moment, his pupils dilated, then he pursed his lips and lowered his head.
"Is this what you want?" Shen Ci Nian showed that indifferent smile again.
"What...what?" Fang Ke didn't understand the meaning.
"I'm asking you if the tone of lecture you used just now was what you wanted. Was it what you wanted after going through so much trouble just to irritate me?"
Yes. So what?
He just wanted to.
He buried his head tightly, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Hold your tears, it's not time for you to cry yet." Shen Qinian raised his hand and took something and threw it on the ground in front of him, "Come here and kneel down."
It was a rosewood ruler that had once been placed on his bedside table. At that time, his eyesight was poor and he could not see clearly how it was different from those sold on the market.
This is a personal, exquisite ruler that seems to have been made recently.
The ruler surface is very clean, with only one word engraved on the end.
——Be loyal.
The moment he saw this word clearly, his mind couldn't be clearer: the moment he blurted out that Shen Chen Nian was unworthy, what on earth did Shen Chen Nian take back?
Yes - exclusive customization, unique care.
He failed to live up to this kindness, and also gained Shen Qinian's indifference.
"The second time I repeat this to you, get on your knees. The third time I'll just tell you to get out."
There was no third time. Fang Ke obediently walked over to Shen Cinian's feet and knelt down.
The presence of the wood beneath his knees was very noticeable, as if reminding him why the driftwood drifted away.
He had grabbed it unconsciously, but in his nightmare he thought it was a strange hand, so he threw away the life-saving driftwood himself.
Shen Cinian didn't say anything else, but just picked up a book on the table and continued reading.
As he watched, a dog's paw tentatively placed on his leg.
The puppy is seeking comfort and is feeling uneasy, right?
Shen Cinian deliberately ignored it and just read.
Fang Ke lowered his head lower and lower, his hand unconsciously rubbing Chen Qinian's kneecap.
His kneeling posture was quite indecent, but Shen Chenian didn't correct him. Was Shen Chenian...
Shen Cinian had only read two pages of the book when Fang Ke started to lose his concentration and even wanted to hit his thigh with his hand.
He suddenly put the book down, and the spine made a dull sound when it hit the table.
Fang Ke withdrew his hand instantly.
"Young Master," Shen Qinian stretched out a hand and stroked his left cheek, his tone full of sarcasm, "Why are you sitting here in the teahouse? I'll go and pour you a cup of tea."
Just as he was about to speak, he received a slap on the face. Shen Ci Nian chuckled flirtatiously: "Do you like it?"
He shook his head, "No..."
"No, I thought you liked it very much."
Still in the same position, Shen Ci Nian fell again, “Don’t you like to beat others like this? What’s the feeling when you beat people?”
Not happy, he wasn't happy at all.
Fighting can only temporarily relieve his irritability, but cannot bring him any sense of relief.
"I'm sorry... I just..." Fang Ke put his hand on Shen Qinian's knee again, "I... don't want anyone to get close to you..."
"So you hit me, huh? That's how you solve problems, one punch or one slap at a time."
"If you have a mouth but can't ask questions, you might as well sew it up. From now on, when you encounter problems, you only need to use your fists. One punch and everyone will obey you."
Shen Cinian's tone was so light that it was hard to tell whether it was sarcasm or the truth.
It was probably a mockery. Fang Ke clenched his fists tightly.
"Loosen your fingers, don't make me pry them apart." Shen Ci Nian finally changed his relaxed tone and frowned, "If you still want to be so rebellious in front of me at this point, then I ask you to leave now."
Fang Ke clenched his fingers a little tighter, then suddenly relaxed, letting them hang naturally at both sides of his body.
"Fang Ke, the tolerance I offer you includes but is not limited to: letting you do whatever you want and be lawless, taking care of you as gently as possible when you make yourself sick, solving all your troubles for you and then easily forgiving you, and tolerating you to drag me down with you to seek death multiple times just to give you a warning..."
"Are you treating me like a temperless clay figure and toying with me because of my tolerance? Speak!"
"No…"
Bang! A hard slap in the face.
Fang Ke turned his head and licked the roots of his teeth.
It was Shen Cinian who asked him to speak, but before he could say anything, Shen Cinian slapped him.
His rebellious mentality instantly took over, and he stood up, even wanting to slap back.
But Shen Cinian just used a cold look to stop all his movements.
"Kneel back down. You feel really embarrassed, don't you? It's really weird and unreasonable, isn't it?"
He stood there motionless, refusing to kneel.
But Shen Qinian just smiled contemptuously, and with just one sentence, Fang Ke knelt down again: "This is what you have been doing to me and the people in this family."
"You can ask the cook if it's embarrassing for you, and ask her if she thinks you're being unreasonable. Or if you don't want to go, then I'll give you time to ask me: Do I think you're ungrateful, or do I think you're hopeless?"
Fang Ke was silent for a long time, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "Then... can you?"
"I won't, because I'm not you. I won't let extreme thoughts fill your already dull brain like you do. I'll just think you deserve a beating."
"Today is very long. Unfortunately, I just lost my job and am currently unemployed. I have plenty of time to waste with you. Let's settle everything one by one."
"I'll hit you back with the same force you used just now. I have nine more hits. Try to see which is harder, your face or my hand."
Maybe he wanted to beg for mercy, as both of someone's dog paws were placed on his knees. Fang Ke pursed his lips and looked particularly aggrieved.
Unfortunately, his magnanimity has run out.
"Look up. This isn't a punishment, and you don't need to ask for mercy. I'm just asking you to recognize who I am."
Maybe it was really scared, the dog raised one of its paws and grabbed his wrist which was about to be slapped. He paused and looked down at Fang Ke's eyes which were already wet.
He wiped Fang Ke's face clean very gently, and then fanned him again as Fang Ke's eyes moved slightly.
He was laughing: "You can cry or beg, whatever you want, I will comfort you and wipe your tears, but I will not forgive you."
As he spoke, his expression suddenly froze: "Because I was planning to give up on you, if you really dared to do something fishy behind my back."
"I'll give you a chance." After nine hits, he smiled again and said, "Tell me what you want."
After breathing heavily for a few moments, Fang Ke spoke subconsciously, "I think..."
"Be your sub and call you master."
After receiving a hard slap, Shen Cinian’s tone was very light, “Why? I don’t agree. I don’t allow you to do this.”
Shen Cinian watched with interest the flash of anger in Fang Ke's eyes. The angry little dog seemed to want to stand up and punch him again.
He said calmly, "This is the second time I'm going to settle accounts with you. You could reject me back then, so naturally I can reject you as well."
The fire went out instantly. Fang Ke said nothing and bent his knees.
"Don't kneel yet, hand me what's under your knees."
Fang Ke picked it up, knelt down, and handed it over. When he handed it over, he didn't expect what would happen next.
Shen Ci Nian took it indifferently, and then gently flicked the middle of the fine red sandalwood with his fingers in front of him.
It cut off immediately.
It just broke like that, so casually, before it was even used once.
Just like the figure of Shen Cinian sitting there, so heartless, it directly cut off all his thoughts.
"Stand up and get out."
"But you...you've already..."
"First, I never said you'd be forgiven just by coming in. Second, I told you from the beginning that this wasn't a punishment. This was a debt I was taking from you, just to make you recognize who I am. Third, I haven't even heard you admit your fault so far, so why should I forgive you like that?"
How can...how can you calculate it like this? You can't calculate it like this...
Fang Ke didn't move, but grabbed Shen Cinian's trouser legs tightly.
"I like you to kneel for a while longer. When you are satisfied, leave on your own. Since you feel disgusted when I touch you, then it is equally disgusting when I see you sticking here..."
Before he could finish his words, Fang Ke wrapped his arms around his calves and buried his head in his thighs.
"Don't say it... please... don't say it..."
So Shen Cinian touched the dog's head that was hiding its tears on his legs.
"This word is so harsh that you can't stand it once you hear it. What about me? Did you consider me before you spoke?"
The fluffy dog head concentrated on hiding its tears in the fabric of his legs, which soon became wet, making him feel a little soft-hearted.
"Go out, I'll put an ice pack on your face," he said in a softer tone, "You're not the only one who hasn't slept all night. Go back to your room and get some sleep. Let me get some sleep too."
"Also, until you're qualified to be my sub, I allow you to call me Mr. This is an extra indulgence for you."
Fang Ke didn't move because his tears were still flowing and he didn't want to look up, as it would be embarrassing.
Shen Qinian didn't indulge him. He pulled his ears and forced him to raise his face. Then he took a few tissues from the table and wiped his eyes. He even jokingly pinched his nose with the tissues: "Master, do you want me to help you blow it out?"
Hearing this, Fang Ke raised his hand and punched.
