Now that the little mushroom came to him on his own initiative, he simply took this opportunity to get rid of the little mushroom.
Yu Tong couldn't help but shook his head.
He underestimated Chen Xi. He thought the villain didn't help Little Mushroom pack his schoolbag because he was angry. He thought the villain quarreled with Little Mushroom because he was angry and said something without thinking.
I didn't expect that this was something Chen Xi had planned long ago.
I guess the little villain has been planning something bad and preparing to take revenge on him since he saw that Little Mushroom was deliberately concealing the rules and wanted to take the opportunity to kill him.
Little Mushroom is already on Chenxi's death list, so it's no use for him to persuade her.
Yu Tong gave them a few symbolic words of advice, telling them that the silver coins he got in exchange for such a big chicken were more than enough for the two children to use for a long time, and there was no need to fight over such a thing.
At worst, he could just work harder and try to sell a few more silver coins.
After hearing what he said, Chen Xi silently tapped his head with her finger.
Yu Tong glanced at him.
He felt that Brother Xiaochen meant, "I won't sell you out."
Little Mushroom didn't care what Little Chicken said at all.
He stood in front of the door, looking at Chen Xi fiercely, "Give me the chicken."
Chen Xi clutched his pocket tightly. "get out of class is about to start. Let's go first. There's still some time before lights out. We can talk then."
He took a deep breath and softened his tone. "Before today, our relationship was very good. Xiaoji is right. He has more than enough for the two of us to share. There's no need for us to become enemies. And you shouldn't..."
"Why not?! We've never had a good relationship!"
Little Mushroom didn't notice that Chen Xi was touching the knife.
He interrupted Chen Xi with a growl, "I know that ever since I became Sister Ai's pet, you've looked down on me from the bottom of your heart! You don't even consider me a friend. In your eyes, I'm just a little follower!"
Chen Xi and Yu Tong were both stunned.
Little Mushroom's face flushed red as he ripped open his collar, revealing a circle of red marks on his neck. They were the marks left by a collar that was too small for him.
"I know you, Lily, Little Coal Ball, Big Sugar, and everyone else in this dormitory looks down on me! You're just like them! But I became a pet to the nuns just to survive."
Chen Xi paused with the knife in his hand, "I don't look down on you."
"You did! You were almost beaten to death by Sister Love last night, but you refused to go to the confessional with her. Don't you think being a nun's pet is worse than death? If you don't think so, why are you so resistant!"
Little Mushroom lifted his clothes, revealing a body covered in whip marks. He pointed at the wound on his chest that was still bleeding, his voice choking with sobs.
"Why are you always able to understand the hidden dangers in the rules? Why can't you be a nun's dog and live such a good life without being beaten every day?"
"I crawled around in the confessional like a puppy, surrounded by a bunch of people. I tried so hard to please them! But Chenxi, why do the nuns like you? And those noble lords like you even more! Why did the noble lord clearly agree to adopt both of us, but now he suddenly changes his mind and only wants you!!!"
Yu Tong remembered that when he was still an egg, he once heard Little Mushroom proudly tell the group of provocative children.
The dean said that when God descends, noble lords will adopt them and make them their young masters.
Yu Tong raised his eyebrows in understanding.
From what Little Mushroom said, it was not hard to see that he actually had a low self-esteem. He was very reluctant to become Sister Love's pet, but he did not have the same firm determination as Chen Xi.
Becoming a nun's pet means having access to the confessional, which means having a chance to escape punishment when breaking the rules.
And every time he would get some benefits from the nuns, such as the chance to avoid being beaten, the freedom to enjoy candy, and snacks outside of normal meals.
Little Mushroom was reluctant to accept this preferential treatment, but also felt inferior because of it.
Negative emotions had been accumulating in his heart for too long. He didn't dare to get angry with the nun, nor could he find a reason to vent his anger on his roommate.
In the end, he turned his attention to the only person who was kind to him.
The villain obviously doesn't know about this.
His brows furrowed tightly. "That nobleman doesn't want to adopt you anymore? When did that happen, and why?"
The tears that had been welling up in the little mushroom's eyes suddenly fell down.
He wiped the tears from his face and said, "The nuns who beat me this morning told me that there was no place for me in the first place. I was just a gift from the orphanage to the noble master. The whole time, that family only wanted you."
"They also said that the adopters don't really care whether we're alive or dead. It's just that the old man, while watching the video, thought you were pretty and would be a good pet. Even if you're dead, you can still be made into dolls and sold."
Yu Tong blinked blankly.
Video recording?
Chen Xi frowned when he heard this.
He wouldn't even want this kind of adoption even if it was given to him for free.
Chen Xi sighed and looked at the boy who was still blocking the door. "If we keep arguing, we won't be able to catch up with our theology class this afternoon."
Little Mushroom cried for a long time, and seemed to feel that this was not the right way.
He turned around and was about to move aside when there was a sudden and urgent knock on the dormitory door, which had been tightly closed.
The voices of a man and a woman sounded outside the door at the same time.
"Chenxi, Chenxi! Are you still in the dormitory? The door to the dormitory building has been locked from the outside. Lily and I have been shouting at the door for a long time, but no one will let us out!"
"The little bear warrior said that the person who locked the door is among us."
Chen Xi and Yu Tong looked at each other and then looked at the little mushroom beside them.
The boy's face was full of surprise. "I didn't, I just planned to..."
He suddenly shut his mouth halfway through his words. Yu Tong knew what he wanted to say, that he just planned to secretly kill Chen Xi and take the chicken away, and there was no need to get himself involved.
