"What? You're asking me... to leave?"
Wu Pin thought he had misheard, so he asked again.
"Yes, please leave, young master."
The coldest tone was used to say the most polite words, which was far from what Wu Pin had expected, and he was momentarily stunned.
After he calmed down for a moment, he asked again, "Why?"
"Because Wuxian Garden does not welcome you."
Following Jing Zhe's instructions, Bai Lu continued, "From today onwards, young master, you must not come to Wuxian Garden anymore. If you do not comply..."
As soon as he finished speaking, several male disciples surrounded him.
Although they weren't physically strong, they were, after all, outer disciples of Wuxianyuan, and their mere presence brought Wu Pin inexplicable pressure.
"Young master, please!"
The male disciple spoke out.
"If we wait for you to make a move, it might not look good for you, young master!"
"..."
At this moment, Wu Pin suddenly realized that Jing Zhe's words to him before leaving the newspaper office might have been his doing.
But Wuxian Garden is the property of Wuxian Pavilion. Even Emperor An can't do anything to them, so why would he listen to a low-ranking official of the fifth rank?
He looked around and happened to spot Jing Zhe in the crowd. Jing Zhe was also looking at him and raised one finger of his right hand, seemingly the middle one, but he didn't know what it meant.
Wu Pin suddenly became angry, glaring at Bai Lu and saying, "Was it the man surnamed Jing who instructed you to do this? You two...aren't you afraid I'll report you to your Master Wang?"
Wu Pin sneered, wanting to turn the tables.
Bai Lu, who had been keeping a straight face, was amused by these words.
"First of all, you won't even get to see our Master—who do you think you are? And besides, if it were our Master, she wouldn't be so polite; she would just say—"
Bai Lu glanced at the male disciple and said, "Throw him out!"
"..."
So Wu Pin was carried by the male disciple and walked a few steps to the outside of the garden. The male disciple was kind enough not to abandon him, but simply put him outside and went inside.
Before he came in, I said to him in a friendly tone, "If you dare to come in again, we'll really be lost!"
"..."
It's Jing Zhe again!
Wu Pin cursed inwardly and, without lingering outside any longer, headed straight for the Wu family.
When he got home, before he could even go to see Wu Xianyong, Wu Yong came over and told him that Wu Xianyong was waiting for him.
"evil creature!"
As soon as he knocked on the door and entered the house, Wu Xianyong began to curse.
Wu Pin was stunned for a moment before asking in a cold voice, "Grandfather, did that guy surnamed Jing come to complain? Don't listen to his nonsense, he's the one who bullied me!"
"Shut up!"
Wu Xianyong got angry when he saw his two spoiled grandsons. "Starting tomorrow, don't go to that newspaper anymore. Just stay at home like your older brother!"
The eldest brother is naturally Wu De. Wu Pin has been making fun of him recently, saying that although he is a temporary worker, at least he has a job, unlike Wu De who does nothing every day and is beaten and scolded by Wu Yong.
He immediately objected: "No, Grandfather! I haven't done anything wrong, why shouldn't I go? It must be that guy surnamed Jing who's here to complain!"
"Grandfather, don't listen to his nonsense! He deliberately said that you can't get hard because you're castrated! He also said that any random man can get harder than you. I only offended him because I defended you!"
Wu Pin defended himself.
"You...shut up!"
He had finally managed to rest for a while, and the pain in his groin had just subsided, but Wu Pin's words made the pain start again.
"Dad, are you alright?"
At this moment, Wu Yong, who was listening outside the door, sensed something was wrong and pushed the door open to come in.
"This... wretched child, he actually won't listen to me!"
"Wu Pin, why don't you listen to your grandfather? What do you want to do?"
"Uncle, Grandfather told me not to go to the newspaper anymore, but I haven't done anything wrong, so why shouldn't I go?"
Wu Pin was unconvinced and glanced at Wu Yong again: "Besides, there are already two people in the family, you and your older brother. We can't all stay at home, can we? The whole Wu family is going to be supported by my father alone?"
"..."
Originally, only Wu Xianyong was angry, but now even Wu Yong was enraged, his hand trembling as he pointed at Wu Pin: "Fine, you're very good... Did your father teach you that?"
Wu Yong and Wu Mou, the two brothers, didn't get along very well to begin with, so his first reaction was that Wu Mou had deliberately taught him that.
"Brother, you can't just say things like that!"
At this moment, Wu Mou also returned.
“What Pin’er thought is none of my business. Besides, what’s wrong with what he said? Now that you and Wu De are both at home, why leave Pin’er at home for psychological comfort? Would you be more satisfied if I didn’t go to the Imperial Academy either?”
"..."
Wu Yong was speechless after being rebuked by his words.
"Shut up! What time is it? Still arguing?"
Wu Xianyong gripped the edge of the bed: "I said it myself, Wu Pin, don't go to the newspaper office starting tomorrow! That Jing Zhe is no pushover, if you go, he definitely won't let you off easily!"
"..."
Wu Pin pursed his lips, thinking to himself, "You're too late. I've already been beaten up by him, but there won't be a second time!"
I'll just stay there, getting in his way and bothering him, I won't leave, let's see if he gets angry!
“Grandfather, since you know he’s no good, yet he insulted you, and both my uncle and aunt’s family suffered at his hands, shouldn’t you teach him a lesson?”
"That's none of your business!"
Wu Xianyong, whose groin was in excruciating pain and who was drenched in cold sweat, was no longer willing to waste words with him: "Just do as I say. Starting tomorrow, you're not allowed to go to the newspaper office anymore! Get out!"
"..."
...
"Young Master Jing, it's done!"
After Wu Pin was taken away, Bai Lu came running to claim credit.
"Excellent, excellent!"
Jing Zhe smiled, but still felt a little regretful: "It would be even better if I could beat him up again."
“Young Master Jing, it’s not a good look to fight in Wuxian Garden. If you really want to, I can have someone beat him up outside.”
Seeing Bai Lu's serious expression, Jing Zhe quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I was just joking!"
He then looked around and asked, "Can the backyard of the garden be opened to the public at night?"
Bai Lu shook her head. "Apart from holding poetry gatherings, the backyard is not open to the public. During the day, some disciples from the garden go in to water the trees and prune them, but there's no one there at night."
"Oh, that's a good idea!"
Jing Zhe smiled after hearing this: "There are too many people in the garden. Going upstairs at this time will inevitably attract criticism. So I'll sneak to the backyard. When you go upstairs later, tell your garden master that I'm waiting for her in the backyard because I have something to do."
"Something came up..."
The backyard was empty and deserted; it was late at night, so what could have happened?
Bai Lu's mind went astray, her face turned red, and she turned away, not daring to look at Jing Zhe again.
"Young Master Jing... please go to the backyard first. I'll go upstairs and inform the Master of the Garden!"
As she spoke, she swayed her hips and slowly walked away. Jing Zhe watched her graceful figure from behind and shook his head.
