The door was locked from the inside. Xie Zhao turned around and stood at the door, looking at her calmly, with a dark light rolling in his deep eyes.
Xie Zhao stood with his back to the light. Cheng Yaoyao couldn't see his eyes clearly. He rolled up the quilt and turned over, still lying there: "Why did you lock the door?"
Xie Zhao said: "Catch the cat."
"Where is the cat?" Cheng Yaoyao suddenly became alert and looked around. "I am the only one in the room..."
Xie Zhao chuckled softly. His voice was like the texture of metal and stone, cold and low, as if it struck at one's heart.
Before Cheng Yaoyao finished speaking, she understood. A strong sense of crisis ran up her spine, and Cheng Yaoyao's delicate skin shuddered slightly. Her intuition told her: danger.
Before Cheng Yaoyao could figure out where the strong sense of crisis came from, he saw Xie Zhao walk to the table and pull out the pointer from the pen holder.
The bamboo stick was green in color, about the thickness of Cheng Yaoyao's little finger, and was polished to a smooth surface. When Cheng Yaoyao was teaching Xie Zhao to read, he often used it to beat him, calling it "education of love." Now the bamboo stick was in Xie Zhao's hand, and he looked at the stick with great interest. Usually, Cheng Yaoyao would swing the stick to beat his hand, and he looked very proud, which was completely different from now.
Cheng Yaoyao threw back the quilt and jumped up, shouting, "That's my teaching stick! Put it down!"
Xie Zhao held the bamboo and swung it. The sound of the bamboo breaking through the air was sharp. He looked at Cheng Yaoyao calmly and said, "You are not obedient. You need to be taught a lesson."
"I...I..." Cheng Yaoyao got furious and said angrily, "You are not allowed to hit me with this!"
"You said that if I don't study hard, I will be beaten." Xie Zhao explained to her seriously, "You beat me seven times during class last night. The day before yesterday, you beat me eleven times, and the day before yesterday..."
Cheng Yaoyao's heart was filled with alarm. This bastard, he really had a little notebook that even recorded exactly how many times he had hit him!
Cheng Yaoyao couldn't stand being beaten. The bamboo would leave marks on Xie Zhao's hands, so if it hit her, wouldn't it hurt her to death? Cheng Yaoyao said anxiously, "I beat you because you didn't take the class seriously! You... you dare to hit me and see!"
Xie Zhao actually nodded in agreement: "Let's try it?"
Cheng Yaoyao stamped his feet: "I'm going to tell grandma!"
Xie Zhao said, "You go."
Cheng Yaoyao looked at the locked door behind Xie Zhao, and her peach blossom eyes blinked a few times before she remembered that Grandma Xie and Xie Fei had gone out. She belatedly exclaimed, "No wonder you didn't let me go, you had already planned it out!"
The more Cheng Yaoyao thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She pointed at Xie Zhao and said, "Xie Zhao, you... you bastard!" She couldn't think of a murderous curse word for a long time, and she felt more and more aggrieved: "You wanted to hit me a long time ago!"
Xie Zhao said: "You are the one who wants to stay in bed, how can you blame me?"
Xie Zhao said as he slowly approached the bed. Cheng Yaoyao put his hands on his waist and said fiercely: "When grandma comes back, I will tell her!"
Xie Zhao laughed. This laugh didn't sound funny, and Cheng Yaoyao became more and more afraid. She was a bully. Usually, she would make trouble with Xie Zhao when her grandmother supported her. Now that her grandmother was gone, she was left alone at home...
Cheng Yaoyao looked around, picked up a small bamboo pillow and threw it at Xie Zhao. Xie Zhao raised his hand to catch it and put it aside. There was nothing on the bed, no other lethal weapons, Cheng Yaoyao was flexible and said decisively: "I'm not sleepy anymore, I'm getting up!"
Xie Zhao was indifferent: "It's too late."
"Woo..." Cheng Yaoyao stamped his feet anxiously on the bed and backed away to the edge of the bed to prevent Xie Zhao from catching him: "Don't come over here, don't come over here!"
Cheng Yaoyao's hair was draped over her shoulders, making her face look even smaller, like a sleeping crabapple. She was only wearing a loose nightgown, and as she ran away, the white skirt spun and blossomed like petals, revealing a pair of smooth, straight calves, and her slender feet stepped on the mat, as white as snow.
On the day of the landslide, Cheng Yaoyao had many scars on her hands and legs. Her skin was delicate and a light pinch would leave bright red marks. But now it was as smooth as new, without any scars visible.
Maybe it is true as the villagers say, Cheng Yaoyao is a vixen, otherwise how could he have such a charming appearance?
At this time, Cheng Yaoyao stared at Xie Zhao, not like a vixen but more like a disobedient kitten. He moved backwards alertly, even his small, round toes clenched nervously.
Cheng Yaoyao jumped all over the bed, running around with Xie Zhao. When Xie Zhao walked to the head of the bed, she moved to the foot of the bed. When Xie Zhao walked to the foot of the bed to grab her, she ran to the head of the bed. The big bed creaked as if it couldn't bear the weight.
Xie Zhao only had one hand, and he couldn't catch her for a moment. The soft hem of her skirt slipped through his fingertips several times, and he could only grab a handful of it.
Cheng Yaoyao was delicate and frail, and she was also very nervous. She ran until her face turned red: "Huh... don't come over here! If you come over here again, I will get angry!"
Her delicate voice was breathy and sounded just like she was acting coquettishly, making people want to bully her again.
Xie Zhao seemed to have sensed the atmosphere, and his voice became a little hoarse: "Don't run away again."
"You...if you want to hit me, I'll run away." Cheng Yaoyao was most afraid of Xie Zhao speaking to her in this tone, not to mention that no one was at home today, and Xie Zhao was clearly trying to catch a turtle in a jar. She hid behind him with her skirt lifted, and protested to Xie Zhao with a pout, "You are not allowed to hit me!"
The skirt was lifted up, revealing a pair of straight legs as smooth as jade. Xie Zhao's eyes were dark, and his tone became colder: "If you run again, you will be punished even more severely."
Cheng Yaoyao was whining and about to cry, stamping her feet and looking like she was about to lose her temper. Xie Zhao added, "No fake crying. Have you forgotten the lesson from last time?"
Cheng Yaoyao thought of the last time Xie Zhao had scolded her, and she shuddered. She pursed her lips to hold back her tears, and her peach blossom eyes were filled with tears that were about to fall. She moaned, "Then...then throw away the bamboo, and don't use it to hit me."
Xie Zhao had a sullen face at first, but when he saw her pitiful look, a smile flashed across his eyes, and then he turned serious in an instant: "Who made you misbehave?"
"I'm good!" Cheng Yaoyao felt embarrassed and wronged about the topic of whether she was good or not, but the situation was beyond her control. She pointed at the pointer in Xie Zhao's hand and said, "Throw it away!"
Xie Zhao said coldly: "You still dare to talk about conditions?"
"..." Cheng Yaoyao pouted and shook his head in frustration.
Xie Zhao said again: "Come here."
Cheng Yaoyao stared at Xie Zhao's face. Xie Zhao had a stern look, deep brows, and looked very ferocious when he was expressionless: "Or do you want to wait for me to catch you?"
Cheng Yaoyao moved her feet nervously, and under the pressure of Xie Zhao, she finally moved forward reluctantly. She was very reluctant, but she comforted herself anxiously: This is just a delaying tactic, waiting for Grandma Xie to come back...
Just as he walked to Xie Zhao's side, Xie Zhao suddenly raised the teaching stick in his hand. Cheng Yaoyao's remaining courage collapsed instantly. He threw himself on Xie Zhao with a "wow" sound, tightly grasped his neck with both hands, stomped his feet and shouted: "Don't hit me!"
Xie Zhao was embraced by the soft and fragrant jade, and his voice was still cold: "Are you afraid of being punished? Why didn't you behave just now?"
"..." Cheng Yaoyao hummed and rubbed into Xie Zhao's shoulder, trying to soften his attitude by acting coquettishly. Xie Zhao really hugged Cheng Yaoyao back and turned around to sit down on the bed.
Xie Zhao's embrace was broad and warm. Cheng Yaoyao felt a little relieved. He buried his face in his shoulder like an ostrich, pretending that he didn't exist.
Xie Zhao's high nose tip touched Cheng Yaoyao's hair, and the faint peach blossom fragrance was refreshing. He pinched Cheng Yaoyao's chin and forced her to raise her head: "Don't act coquettishly, use your mouth to say, you are not obedient, should you be punished?"
Cheng Yaoyao's eyes were in a mess, and she only noticed the stick Xie Zhao had put down. She stretched out her feet and secretly kicked the stick under the bed before she breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't punish me... Wow!"
Before Cheng Yaoyao could finish his words, he was pushed face down on Xie Zhao's knees.
"Ah! What are you doing..." Cheng Yaoyao kicked his legs wildly.
Above him, Xie Zhao's tone finally revealed a hint of anger: "Punishment. Secretly throwing away the teaching stick is an even greater crime."
Anyway, the teaching stick is gone, so you can't punish me. Cheng Yaoyao stared at the floor tile and pouted. Suddenly, a "snap" sound of flesh hitting flesh echoed in the room along with Cheng Yaoyao's scream.
Cheng Yaoyao really screamed out this time, tears streaming down his cheeks: "Ah! It hurts! You...ah! You dare to hit me! Xie Zhao, you are dead! Ah! Don't hit me...it hurts so much...Ouch! I want to go home, I want to go home!"
Three "pa pa pa" sounds were heard, and the only fleshy part of Cheng Yaoyao's body was slapped three times in a row. Cheng Yaoyao never thought that he would be beaten like this in his lifetime. It was painful and embarrassing, and he cried out loudly.
Xie Zhao was about to hit her, but when he heard something wrong in her voice, he turned her over and saw that her face was red from crying, as if she was going to die in the next second. Xie Zhao brushed away the wet hair beside her cheek. Cheng Yaoyao was beautiful. When she didn't smile, she was cold and unattainable. When she cried, she was like a crabapple in the rain, which aroused the deepest desire to destroy in people's bones.
Whenever Cheng Yaoyao made Xie Zhao angry, she would use tears to evade punishment, but she didn't know that her behavior would only make people want to bully her again and make her cry...
Cheng Yaoyao was sobbing when she secretly glanced at Xie Zhao's expression and accidentally looked into his eyes. She was immediately frightened by the raging fire in his eyes and forgot to cry.
It seemed as if a transparent flame was burning in the air and the temperature in the room gradually rose. Cheng Yaoyao was so frightened that he stared at Xie Zhao in a daze. His curled eyelashes were wet by his tears, which seemed to deepen the outline of his delicate peach blossom eyes and make them even more charming.
"Don't look at me like that." Xie Zhao said hoarsely, and covered her eyes with his big hand. Cheng Yaoyao hiccupped in fear, and everything in front of her was dark, but the warm big hand covered her eyes.
Xie Zhao's palm was bigger than Cheng Yaoyao's face, covering the upper half of her face, leaving only her small chin and lips exposed.
The lips were small and soft, an alluring rosy color, with an overly cute bead on the upper lip that seemed to invite kissing all the time.
Cheng Yaoyao was like a kitten with its neck pinched, or a little rabbit under the claws of a wolf. He didn't dare to move and cried, "What's wrong with me..."
"You seduced me." Xie Zhao's breath was hot, and his low voice was clearly heard by Cheng Yaoyao. "You are so naughty, do you know how I will punish you?"
"I... I didn't." Cheng Yaoyao bit her lower lip. The darkness in front of her eyes made her feel more and more restless. She raised her hand to grab Xie Zhao's collar and said in a coquettish and crying voice, "Don't hit me, it hurts..."
