Chapter 112 Getting into a group fight caused miscarriage.
The little boy opened his eyes and saw a figure as green as bamboo tightly hugging him, rolling around on the ground a few times.
He smells so good, a light and refreshing fragrance that makes you want to take a few more sniffs.
Shen Chu stood up and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
The little boy stared blankly at Chen Chu.
Chen Chu thought he was frightened, so she rubbed his head and pulled him up.
"Tsk, I wondered who was meddling in other people's business. It turns out to be the young master and Lord Shen." Wang Yao walked over with a displeased expression.
Li Chengxuan angrily blocked his way, saying, "What kind of ability do you have to let a vicious dog bully a child?"
Wang Yao pointed at the little boy and said, "This little brat stole my purse. He deserves to die. Letting him feed my golden retriever is already letting him off easy."
Shen Chu turned to look at the little boy, "You stole his money?"
The little boy quickly shook his head, "I didn't. He said he would give it to me as a reward. After I took the money bag, he sent the dog to chase me."
Wang Yao said arrogantly, "You little brat, I clearly said that as long as you kowtow to me ten times and lick my shoes clean, I will reward you with some silver."
"You haven't even licked my shoes clean yet, and you've already taken my money and run away! That's theft!"
A hint of embarrassment flashed in the little boy's eyes.
"Wang Yao!" Li Chengxuan was furious. "How could you bully a child like this?"
Wang Yao didn't take it seriously. "How can this be called bullying? There's no such thing as free money in this world. I set the conditions, he fulfilled them, so it's only right that I give him a reward."
Now that he failed, what's wrong with me recovering the money?
"So what if you have money? Does having money give you the right to bully the weak and act like a dog relying on its master's power?"
Wang Yao said smugly, "Who told me to be rich? If this little brat doesn't want money, he doesn't have to agree to my conditions."
"You!" Li Chengxuan was so angry that he raised his fist.
Wang Yao shouted exaggeratedly, "Young Master, you don't want to hit me, do you? Oh, I heard you and Zhou Jun trampled someone to death while riding horses last night?"
Young Master, you'd better take it easy. If anything happens to me after that punch, you'll be going to Dali Temple to keep Zhou Jun company.
"Tsk tsk, you two really are good brothers, even as murderers you don't distinguish between first and second place."
Hearing him mention Zhou Jun, Li Chengxuan became even angrier and punched Wang Yao in the face.
"Ah Jun is not a murderer, so watch your mouth."
Wang Yao immediately became anxious, "You want to fight, huh? Let me tell you, I'm not afraid. What are you standing there for? Get him!"
The servants of the Marquis of Changping flocked over.
Li Chengxuan was furious and pushed Chen Chu back a little. "Chu, you're weak. Stay away from me so I don't hurt you. I have to teach this guy a lesson today."
Shen Chu knew that they were all scions of prominent families in the capital, and they often disliked each other, and bickering and fighting were common occurrences.
Unless there is serious injury or death, the heads of the various families and even His Majesty will not intervene.
She wanted Li Chengxuan to teach Wang Yao a lesson, so she pulled the little boy back two steps silently.
Who knew that Li Chengxuan, despite his fierce words, was no match for the many hands he had, and was quickly subdued by the men of the Marquis of Changping's mansion.
Wang Yao was still sensible enough to know his place and, out of consideration for Li Chengxuan's status as a young master, dared not really hurt him; he could only sneer coldly.
"Young Master, I told you not to meddle in other people's business. You should just watch the show quietly."
Li Chengxuan jumped up and down indignantly, "Of course you have an advantage because you have more people. If you're so capable, let me go and we'll have a one-on-one fight."
He was both cowardly and brave; Chen Chu couldn't bear to watch.
Wang Yao ignored him, straightened his clothes, and turned to look at the little boy.
"Little beggar, come here and obediently lick my shoes clean, and this bag of silver will be yours as a reward."
The little boy clenched his fist, a helpless hatred flashing in his eyes.
He had no desire to kowtow to these rich young men; they simply enjoyed the thrill of teasing him and mocking him from a superior position.
Grandpa said that a man's knees are worth gold; a real man kneels only to heaven, earth, and his parents.
Grandpa also said that a real man would rather die standing than live kneeling.
But now Grandpa is dying, and we need a lot of money to buy medicine and treat him.
At this moment, principles and integrity were no longer important; all he wanted was for his grandfather to live.
If kneeling down and kowtowing, licking shoes, could earn him money to pay for his grandfather's medical treatment, he would be willing!
The little boy clenched his fists and bent his knees.
A strong force pulled him back. He looked up and saw Chen Chu gently shaking her head at him. "Don't believe him. Even if you do as he says, he won't give you any money. Instead, he'll make fun of you even more."
"What does Lord Shen mean by this? You don't mean you want to lick his boots, do you?" Wang Yao looked at Shen Chu's handsome face, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes.
At the last flower-viewing banquet hosted by the Grand Princess of Chengyang, Shen Chu made him a laughingstock, which kept him from going out for a long time.
Now that Shen Chu has run into his trap, he is determined to avenge that day.
Thinking of this, a sinister smile appeared on Wang Yao's face. "Someone, come and serve Lord Shen to lick my shoes."
He waved his hand, and several servants immediately surrounded him.
"What do you want to do?" Shen Chu frowned.
Wang Yao raised his chin and said arrogantly, "Either you lick it, or he licks it. You choose one, or neither of you will leave today."
Shen Chu smirked and swung her fist at Wang Yao’s face.
"I choose to lick your boots. It's just a group fight, I can do that too."
She deliberately targeted vulnerable and painful spots, punching Wang Yao right in the eye socket and then kicking him hard in the shin before he could react.
In Wang Yao's eyes, Shen Chu was just a refined and thin scholar, and he never expected that Shen Chu would take action.
So he was caught off guard and his hair was grabbed and pulled hard, leaving him sprawled at the little boy's feet in an extremely disheveled state.
Chen Chu placed one foot on Wang Yao's chest and looked down at him coldly, "Lick it. Don't even think about getting up until you've licked this kid's shoes clean."
"Chen Chu!" Wang Yao, sporting a dark circle under his eye, was furious. "How dare you insult me like this!"
Shen Chu punched him again, "Stop talking nonsense, lick it."
Wang Yao roared angrily, his eyes bruised and swollen, "Are you all dead? You just stand by and watch others bully me like this."
Four or five servants from the Changping Earl's mansion rushed over.
Shen Chu sneered, "Don't come any closer, or I'll crush his manhood."
The servants were so frightened that they immediately stopped in their tracks.
Li Chengxuan, who was being held down, shouted excitedly, "Achu, teach him a lesson! If you kill him, it's on me!"
I am the only son of our Duke of Protectorate's family. Even if you beat him to death, His Majesty wouldn't bear to kill me.
A flicker of fear crossed Wang Yao's eyes. "Chen Chu, I am the heir of the Marquis of Changping. You won't live even if you kill me."
Shen Chu sneered, grabbed his hair, and pressed it directly onto the little boy's shoe.
"lick!"
Wang Yao's face suddenly landed on the little boy's shoe, and he got a mouthful of dirt. He was so angry that his expression turned ferocious.
He had never suffered such humiliation in his life, and he felt an intense hatred for Chen Chu. "Golden Fur, bite him to death!"
Upon hearing its master's command, the lion dog, which had been sitting quietly nearby, leaped up and pounced fiercely on Chen Chu.
The little boy instinctively spread his arms to block Chen Chu.
Shen Chu pushed him away, intending to move to the side to avoid the lion dog.
Just then, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
She was a moment too slow to dodge and had to brace herself against the lion dog's neck with her hands.
The poodle bared its fierce fangs at her and lunged at her, howling.
Li Chengxuan was so anxious that he tried to rush over, but Wang Yao jumped up and stopped him, and the two started fighting.
The inexplicable cramping pain in her abdomen made Shen Chu frown, and she felt a little flustered.
Could it be that the baby rolled around on the spot while rescuing the little boy and punctured the fetus?
Will her child be alright?
For a moment, she was distracted, and the lion dog broke free from her restraints and bit her hard.
