Upon hearing this, the others chimed in, "Yes, yes, it's the young master."
"This servant also saw that the young master was playing with firecrackers."
Hearing them say that, Shen Cang suddenly realized, "That's right! When I left, that brat was still in the study."
It must be him!
Veins bulged on Shen Cang's forehead: "Go and tie him up!" If we don't discipline him, this kid will run wild!
When the servants carried Jia Lan over from both sides, he struggled violently with his legs, desperately trying to break free.
"Behold my hidden weapon!" He confidently tossed a silver needle at one of the servants, adding a sound effect: "Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
Shen Cang's eyes widened as he watched the silver needle fall to the ground.
Where did you get this needle?
Jia Lan avoided his gaze and did not answer.
Shen Cang got even angrier and slapped him hard on the buttocks: "I'm asking you a question, answer me!"
Jia Lan finally opened her mouth and began to howl.
The more he howled, the more annoyed Shen Cang became, the angrier he got, and the harder he hit him.
When Jiang Wan rushed over and saw that scene, her heart ached terribly.
She snatched Jia Lan away and held him protectively in her arms, complaining, "What are you doing, Master? You can't take your anger out on our Lan-ge'er."
"Taking it out on me?" Shen Cang was amused by his own anger: "Why don't you ask your good son what he's done first!"
Jiang Wan knew that the child was always mischievous, so she didn't dare to speak definitively. Instead, she said, "...Even if he made a mistake unintentionally, he is still just a child. Why should you get so angry, sir?"
"You said it yourself, he's just a kid, not some living emperor. If he makes a mistake, can't I get angry?"
"...That's not what I meant."
The two argued until their faces turned red, completely unlike their tender moments before.
The instigator, however, remains completely unaware.
Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Jia Lan suddenly turned around and ran away!
The servant boy chased after him.
In his eyes, it was probably a game. When he saw people chasing him, he would run while flicking his whip and throwing it at them.
After having dinner, Shen Qiyin went to check on Madam Shen and happened to pass by and saw this scene.
Whether Jia Lan was caught up in the game or was deliberately seeking revenge, he lit several of them and threw them at Shen Qiyin with a mischievous look on his face!
