Chapter 12 Chapter 12

"You, you, you, what did you say? What did you do? Who did you kill!?"

Xie Qiao snorted in derision.

Zong Fei then realized that Xie Qiao had tricked her and she was almost mad.

"Tell me, what do you want to do? I can't let you mess around!" Zong Fei asked seriously with a cold face.

Xie Qiao rolled his eyes and said, "Stop pretending. Your tricks can only scare idiots like Wang Yizhi. You are far from being able to stand up to me."

He might be the first person to see through Zong Fei's disguise. He was a young master who was cold and arrogant in front of others, but a fool behind others. If the young master revealed this, he was afraid that Uncle Zong would beat him.

Zong Fei said disdainfully, "That's because I don't want to pretend. Do you really think you're that great?"

"Tsk~" Xie Qiao was even more disdainful. The two of them looked at each other with disdain at the same time, then turned their heads away and didn't look at each other.

Perhaps because they pretended to be good friends in front of Master Zong, the ice between Zong Fei and Xie Qiao was broken unconsciously. After a while, Zong Fei couldn't help but be curious and asked Xie Qiao: "What do you want to do?"

Xie Qiao was impatient, "Put a sack on him and beat him up, is that ok?"

This was similar to what Zong Fei had thought. He said with satisfaction, "I'll go too."

Xie Qiao: "??? What are you doing?"

Zong Fei said as a matter of course, "I'm watching you. What if you go too far?"

At this point, Zong Fei touched the wounds on his body that still hurt. This kid Xie Qiao must have trained specially. An expert can tell whether he has any skill just by one move. He himself was sent to a training camp by his biological father to study for two years. Xie Qiao could fight him on equal terms, which showed that he had made great achievements in this area.

Are all geniuses so amazing?

Zong Fei rarely feels that he is inferior to others, but every time he encounters Xie Qiao, he always feels powerless.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have been unable to bear it long ago. If his family had some power, he would definitely find ways to suppress Xie Qiao to drive out the shadow in his heart, just like Wang Yizhi.

But Zong Fei is not an ordinary person. He is naturally unhappy about being overshadowed by Xie Qiao in school, so he follows Wang Yizhi's advice and fights with Xie Qiao to get rid of the jealousy and resentment in his heart.

He also has a bottom line, and he is not vague about apologizing when it is time to do so. In fact, even if Xie Qiao's mother did not go to the school to "debate with the scholars" that day, he would still apologize. He has never thought of using his power to oppress others.

Xie Qiao didn't know what Zong Fei was thinking, so he glanced at him and said, "You want to go see the excitement, right?"

"sleep!"

Zong Fei did not answer him. She glanced at the message sent by Secretary Qian and emphasized again, "Your mom and dad have been alone together. I will let you stay at my place tonight. I will follow you wherever you want to go tomorrow."

Xie Qiao nodded nonchalantly, put away his computer, leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

Zong Fei: "Are you going to sleep like this?"

Xie Qiao ignored him.

"I don't care about you!"

Early the next morning, Xie Qiao planned to sneak away, but he didn't expect that just after he walked out of the Zong family gate, he saw Zong Fei riding a mountain bike with another empty bike in the wheelchair waiting for him at the intersection.

Mingxian wanted to give the other bike to Xie Qiao, planning to ride together to seek revenge.

Xie Qiao: “…”

"You..." Xie Qiao had a complicated expression.

Zong Fei looked at him proudly, "Don't think about getting rid of me, Master. I know where the Song family lives. I can find their home even if you leave."

"I mean, you're pretty law-abiding. You can't drive a car or ride a motorcycle if you're under 18," Xie Qiao took a deep breath, "but do you know how long it takes to get from your home to the city?"

"Riding a bicycle from here to Song Yaozu's house would be exhausting, if not dead. Are you planning to take revenge on him or me?"

Zong Fei: “…”

Finally, Xie Qiao took a taxi and put Zong Fei's baby car in the trunk and pulled it in.

After arriving in the city, the two carefully rode their bicycles to the urban village where the Song family lived to stake out their position.

The rent in the urban village is low, and landlords are willing to rent to anyone in order to make money, resulting in a mixed crowd. The surrounding environment is also poorly maintained. It is even more unbearable to live in the village where the Song family lives.

Zong Fei had never seen such a dirty and messy place in his life for more than ten years. He was a little puzzled: "Didn't the Song family accept Wang Ruowei's money? Why do they live here?"

Xie Qiao didn't know who Wang Ruowei was. He was surprised when he heard the words, but he didn't show it on his face and continued Zong Fei's words as if nothing had happened.

“Maybe he’s reluctant to part with the money.”

Zong Fei nodded, "What should we do now?"

Xie Qiao pointed to the alley in front and said, "This alley is the only way for the Song family to go out. Song Yaozu's location is nearby, which means he has been at home all the time. His parents are out, and on the way here I used his mobile phone number to order a very expensive takeaway, and asked for the takeaway to be delivered only to the entrance of the alley. Given Song Yaozu's personality, it is impossible for him not to be greedy for this little bargain."

After listening to this, Zong Fei shifted his focus and said with a look of disgust, "He is really a mama's boy. A grown man stays at home all day and relies on his parents for support. He doesn't feel ashamed."

Xie Qiao believed this deeply and couldn't understand how his excellent mother could have such an absurd family. No wonder his mother never mentioned her family in front of him. Such family members are better than none at all.

Finding an opportunity to beat up Song Yaozu was his first thought after hearing that family insulting his mother with obscene words yesterday. It was impossible for him to just do nothing.

I just didn't expect Zong Fei to get involved, and I don't know what this young master is trying to do.

Not long after, Song Yaozu really went out.

Zong Fei and Xie Qiao hid in the corner. After not seeing each other for a day, Song Yaozu was still the fat otaku.

With messy hair, wearing a sweatshirt and riding pants, and flip-flops, he looked around to see if there was anyone around. Then he reached into the back of his pants and pinched his butt, successfully exposing half of his butt.

Zong Fei/Xie Qiao: “…” My eyes hurt.

After Song Yaozu got the takeaway and walked back happily, Xie Qiao used his height to put a sack over Song Yaozu's head from behind, and Zong Fei stabbed into the sack from the bottom in a tacit understanding.

"Who!? Who is it?" Song Yaozu was terrified. "What are you going to do?"

Xie Qiao and Zong Fei looked at each other, and without saying a word, they beat up Song Yaozu.

After the two men left, Song Yaozu, who was lying on the ground shivering, dared to take off the sack on his head.

…

The two rode Zong Fei's "Tyrannosaurus Rex" all the way to the downtown area before stopping and finding a small restaurant nearby to eat.

Xie Qiao took out a cup, rinsed it with boiling water, poured a cup of tea for Zong Fei and said, "I'll treat you to a meal as a thank you for doing bad things with me."

Zong Fei was extremely surprised. He thought Xie Qiao was too arrogant and would never say the word "thank you" to him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Xie Qiao was helpless. He was not really ungrateful. This matter had nothing to do with Zong Fei. Even if Zong Fei had hostile intentions towards him, he could use this matter as a handle to threaten him or report him.

But Zong Fei did it with him, and now they are grasshoppers on a rope. This is definitely not worth the loss for Zong Fei, and it is more harmful than beneficial.

Zong Fei: "Nothing, I just think you're not that hateful anymore."

Xie Qiao: “…” Who is the evil one? Who was the first to pick a fight with him?

Xie Qiao was speechless.

Zong Fei might have thought of this, and coughed a little embarrassedly, saying, "I'm sorry about the fight, it was me who caused trouble for you."

Before Xie Qiao could say "It's okay", Master Zong Xiao interrupted, "But don't think I don't know that you also dislike me. Maybe my picking a fight with you is just what you want."

Xie Qiao smiled and said, "You know me well."

Zong Fei curled her lips, "I've long seen that you're a hypocrite."

"So this means we have reconciled?" Xie Qiao raised his glass.

Zong Fei picked up the cup and clinked it with Xie Qiao's. "It should be called 'no fight, no acquaintance.'"

Xie Qiao: “Haha.”

Now that he had brought it up, Zong Fei simply asked the source of his dissatisfaction, "Why did you ignore me when we first met?"

Xie Qiao was a little confused. When did he ignore Zong Fei?

Seeing that Xie Qiao had no memory of the incident, Zong Fei didn't know whether to be angry or happy. After a long pause, he said, "It was the day you won the championship in the physics competition. I greeted you on the road, but you ignored me and walked away."

Xie Qiao was surprised and thought for a moment, "Didn't I nod before leaving?"

Zong Fei: “…” I thanked you and nodded to me.

"You didn't even know that I was the second place in that competition, did you?" He took a deep breath and said in a gloomy tone, "That's right, the second place is certainly not worthy of the genius Xie Qiao to know who it is."

In fact, when an excellent person sees someone who is better than himself, his first thought is not hostility, but admiration and the desire to get closer to that person and become friends with that person.

The first time Zong Fei wanted to make friends with someone, he was ignored. So he turned love into hate.

"How could I not know you..." Xie Qiao said speechlessly, "I already knew about the relationship between our parents, and you are the same."

He said that Zong Fei would not compete with him for no reason. He used to think that Zong Fei disliked him because he felt uncomfortable with the fact that their parents were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Now he realized that the young master's self-esteem was completely hurt.

He didn't know how to explain that Zong Fei thought he was too arrogant and didn't want to pay attention to him, but Xie Qiao was not really oblivious to what was happening outside. How could he not know the famous Zong Fei, the leader among the second-generation rich?

What's more, Zong Fei is the son of his mother's boyfriend.

He did not look down on Zong Fei like other ordinary students in the school just because Zong Fei was a second-generation rich.

In fact, it's just the opposite. Unless these second-generation rich kids are really not ambitious, they can rely on their family's resources and work a little harder, and most of them will be better than ordinary students who have no resources to support themselves.

This is normal, after all, the starting point is different.

Zong Fei is the best one among this group of people, and also the best person in the school except him. It has been difficult for Xie Qiao not to know him since he entered the new school.

But his and Zong Fei's identities were originally a bit awkward.

Uncle Zong saved his mother back then and was like a lifesaver to them. Although he and his mother have gradually paid off the money they owed Uncle Zong over the years, a favor is not so easy to repay.

Uncle Zong and Mom have been in love for so many years, but they never talked about marriage, nor did they want Zong Fei to get to know him. It was obvious that they didn't want them to have anything to do with each other. Xie Qiao was very sensitive in this regard, so naturally he wouldn't rush to get in front of Zong Fei and let Mom be looked down upon.

For various reasons, Xie Qiao had complicated feelings towards Uncle Zong. He was grateful but also sad for his mother. Although he knew that his mother also did not want to marry Uncle Zong, Xie Qiao still felt uncomfortable.

This feeling also spread to Zong Fei, so he simply turned a blind eye to it. It is always better to stay away from it.

Who could have thought that Zong Fei would insist on coming over.

Xie Qiao briefly explained his concerns, and Zong Fei looked at him in confusion, "You are only a teenager, and you have so many ideas. Aren't you afraid that you won't grow taller?"

"But that's true," Zong Fei touched his chin and said bluntly, "I was wondering how anyone could tolerate a tyrant like that old man. He's been with your mother for more than ten years and he never proposed to her. Your mother didn't leave him either, which made me think your mother loved him to death."

"It turns out that I can't repay you for saving my life."

Xie Qiao had a complicated expression on his face. Based on his years of observing the two getting along with each other and his mother's attitude, he thought it was still unclear who was in love with each other.

"But kindness will eventually run out," Zong Fei said gloatingly as she watched from the sidelines, "When Aunt Song doesn't have the patience to play with the old man anymore, won't the old man be alone for the rest of his life?"

Not to mention, based on his observation of Aunt Song, she really is this kind of unrestrained person.

Xie Qiao: “…” You are really dad’s great son.
