Chapter 583 Extra: Lin Luoxi's Younger Brother Xiao Jingrui
Lin Luoxi didn't look at Xiao Jingrui, who was crying, but instead looked at Wang Yurou and Xiao Jingteng, who were still present.
"Well, we're tired after such a long carriage ride." Xiao Jingteng tactfully helped Wang Yurou and they headed home.
"Dad, Mom, are you just going to leave me like this?" Xiao Jingrui looked at Xiao Jingteng and his wife, who were about to leave, with tears in his eyes and said aggrievedly.
"My son, your parents are also afraid of your older sister!"
"To avoid being blamed, son, you should listen to your older sister!" Xiao Jingteng said these two sentences before quickly leaving with Wang Yurou in his arms.
She looked as if Lin Luoxi were a man-eating demon.
"..." Seeing his parents escape, Xiao Jingrui stood there, no longer daring to cry. He stared at Lin Luoxi with his big, teary eyes, feeling uneasy.
Even someone as powerful as his father is afraid of him, so if he cries again, his older sister will definitely beat him to death.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go train." Seeing Wang Yurou and Xiao Jingteng leave, Xiao Jingrui stopped crying and immediately urged them on.
"I'll go, I'll go, I'll go right now..." After saying that, he jogged towards the training field.
"Honey, do you think I'm that scary-looking?" Lin Luoxi asked Xie Hanchuan beside her, turning to look at Xiao Jingrui who was fleeing in panic.
"Do you want to hear the truth or something nice?" Xie Hanchuan took two steps back and looked at Lin Luoxi.
"Why are you backing away? Do I look like an unreasonable person?" Lin Luoxi frowned slightly when she saw Xie Hanchuan backing away.
"I'm just afraid that if I tell the truth later, you'll hit me..." Xie Hanchuan blurted out, fully considering the consequences of his words.
"Hmph, you'll be sleeping in the study tonight." Lin Luoxi squinted at Xie Hanchuan, said this, and then left.
"Hey, hey, wife, I know I was wrong." Upon hearing that she was going to sleep in the study, Xie Hanchuan immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly jogged to catch up with Lin Luoxi.
Lin Luoxi ignored Xie Hanchuan's words and returned home, instructing the servants to move the bedding Xie Hanchuan had been using to the study.
She went into the room and didn't come out again. Instead, she went into her private space to enjoy her solitude.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Xie Zhili and the others, who had just returned from training, heard their father begging for mercy from the doorway of his room as soon as they entered the house. They all curiously came over.
"What else could it be? It must be that Dad made Mom angry." Xie Zhichu bluntly hit Xie Hanchuan's sore spot.
"You brat, instead of pleading with your mother for me, you're just throwing cold water on things here." Xie Hanchuan, who had been called out, glared angrily at Xie Zhichu.
"Dad, we don't know what you did to upset Mom. How can we comfort her?"
"What if Mom complains about us later!"
Xie Zhichu rolled her eyes at Xie Hanchuan, guessing that her father, with his low emotional intelligence, had probably said something unpleasant and angered her mother.
"I... I haven't even said anything yet, and your mother is already angry..." Xie Hanchuan muttered softly.
"Didn't you say anything? My mother isn't petty or unreasonable. If you hadn't said anything, she definitely wouldn't be this angry." Xie Zhili immediately retorted upon hearing Xie Hanchuan's words.
"Are you here to help me or to sabotage me?" Xie Hanchuan felt even more insecure after the children said that.
"Dad, just sleep in the study these next few days. Once you improve your emotional intelligence, Mom will probably calm down."
Seeing Xie Hanchuan's lack of confidence, Xie Leyao pulled Xie Zhili, Xie Zhiyan, Xie Zhiheng, and Xie Zhichu away.
"Hey, hey, you guys are such ingrates." Seeing that the children weren't speaking up for him, Xie Hanchuan was so anxious that he tried to pull them back.
Seeing his father's appearance, Xie Zhili quickly pulled his younger siblings away.
"Big brother, is it really okay for us to do this?" Xie Zhiyan looked at Xie Hanchuan, who was anxiously watching from behind, and felt that this was too unfair.
"What do you know? This is how Dad and Mom flirt. Let's not meddle." Xie Zhili walked towards the dining room without looking back. Adult matters are none of a child's business.
"Yes, Big Brother is right!" Xie Leyao smiled and went to eat as well.
Seeing that none of the children were helping him, Xie Hanchuan could only stand at the door of the room, repeatedly apologizing to Lin Luoxi.
"Mom, I know I was wrong. I don't want to go to training anymore."
Xiao Jingrui spent two days in the training camp, then burst into tears and refused to go back to training.
Having grown accustomed to a life of luxury and dominance in the capital, he now returns to Wutong Village, where he gets up before dawn every day to run all over the mountains and trains until dark.
This high-intensity training had long since worn away Xiao Jingrui's arrogant demeanor.
At this moment, he was in pain and exhausted, and because he couldn't hold his chopsticks, he burst into tears.
"You can't even handle this? No way! You call yourself the most notorious troublemaker in the capital, and you can't even endure this little bit of hardship? You're such a spineless coward!"
Wang Yurou looked at her son, who was wailing loudly, and suppressed a smile. She chose a provocative method to provoke Xiao Jingrui.
When Jam Hsiao looked at Hsiao Ching-jui, his eyes were filled with heartache.
This was his son born late in life, and he doted on Xiao Jingrui like the apple of his eye. Now that he saw Xiao Jingrui could barely hold chopsticks, he wished he could be his chopsticks.
And that was indeed the case. He picked up his chopsticks and filled a large bowl with the dishes that Xiao Jingrui liked.
"Hmph, I didn't..." Hearing Wang Yurou's words, Xiao Jingrui stopped crying, sobbing, and dared not say he wouldn't train. He buried his head in his rice.
Xie Zhili, seeing Xiao Jingrui's dead state, suppressed a laugh and gave Xiao Jingrui some face.
"Uncle, I didn't even complain about being tired, why are you crying?" As the youngest member of the royal family, Xiao Yize was extremely disgusted by Xiao Jingrui's pathetic behavior.
"Who said I cried??" Feeling embarrassed that Xiao Yize had said that in front of everyone, Xiao Jingrui immediately denied that he had cried.
"Pfft..." The adults present couldn't take it anymore and burst out laughing.
"Hmph!" Xiao Jingrui blushed with embarrassment at everyone's laughter and huffed angrily.
But seeing everyone laughing, he awkwardly laughed along too.
Unbeknownst to him, far away in Wutong Village, the teachers at the Royal Academy in the capital all breathed a sigh of relief because of his departure, the departure of this troublemaker.
Everyone hopes that Xiao Jingrui and his arrogant children won't come back, so they won't have to worry about them anymore.
December 28th
More than three months later, when the children who had participated in the training camp returned to Wutong Village, their faces were full of determination, and their arrogant expressions were no longer visible.
"Second sister, second sister, I'm back." Just as everyone was at the training ground reviewing the children's progress over the past six months, Lin Luoning, who was far away in Lingnan, returned with her husband's family.
