Chapter 110 (Updated 1101)
110:
Qiu Lu stared at the person in front of him, incredulous that he had been ambushed by such a small child!
He was so angry that he wanted to beat up Qin Cheng.
Ye Qingxi: !!
That won't do!
His plan was to get himself beaten up, not Qin Cheng!
Ye Qingxi was anxious and wanted to stand in front of Qin Cheng, but then she heard Qin Yuan's voice.
"What are you doing?!"
The next second, just as Qiu Lu raised his hand to strike Qin Cheng's face, he grabbed Qiu Lu's hand and kicked him.
Qiu Lu was caught off guard and kicked again, which made him so angry that he immediately started fighting with Qin Yuan.
Ye Qingxi quickly pulled Qin Cheng back a few steps to prevent the two adults from fighting and accidentally hurting the child.
He watched as Qin Yuan and Qiu Lu fought back and forth. To his surprise, Qin Yuan, who looked so gentle and refined, was actually a skilled fighter. In no time, she had Qiu Lu pinned to the ground in the car.
"Let go!" Qiu Lu said angrily.
Qin Yuan was even angrier than him, "You're an adult, bullying two kids, is that fun?!"
Qiu Lu sneered, "Get this straight, he's the one who dirtied my clothes first. I didn't hit him, yet his brother still had the nerve to kick me!"
"I apologize to you," Ye Qingxi said quickly.
His voice was pitiful and aggrieved, "I already apologized and said I'd make you a replacement, but you knocked my cake away and then grabbed me."
"That's right!" Qin Cheng chimed in, "You were the one who bullied my brother first!"
"But your brother hit me first!"
"So my brother apologized to you."
"What's the point of an apology?!"
"I told you I could buy you a new dress," Ye Qingxi continued, emphasizing her aggrieved tone.
"I don't need it!" Qiu Lu retorted angrily. "You think you can just give me compensation and I'll accept it?!"
Qin Yuan was speechless. "How could Qiu Yue have a younger brother like you?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Lu became even more enraged and struggled to fight him again.
"Let me go!"
"We can't let him go!" Qin Cheng said angrily. "Xiao Xi's hand is injured! The cake is ruined! And he hasn't even apologized to Xiao Xi!"
"Xiao Xi dirtied his clothes, and Xiao Xi apologized. He hit Xiao Xi and smashed Xiao Xi's cake, so he also has to apologize to Xiao Xi!" Qin Cheng argued vehemently.
Ye Qingxi: ? ? ? Injured?!
His hand is injured?!
How could he not know?!
He quickly looked down at his hands.
Well, there's a wound about the size of a grain of rice on it.
Ye Qingxi: ...
How should I put it?
You have good eyesight, bro!
This is all visible!
Ye Qing silently gave Qin Cheng a thumbs up in her heart.
Winter skin is brittle. It was probably because when Qiu Lu slapped the cake away, the cake tray scratched him, leaving a small, painless mark that he barely felt.
Surprisingly, Qin Cheng noticed it.
It's truly heaven's help!
Ye Qingxi was overjoyed!
He was only worried because Qiu Lu hadn't slapped or pushed him, causing any real physical conflict that would have given him an excuse to retaliate, but instead, he ended up with this small injury.
This is just like sleeping on a pillow when you're sleepy!
Qiu Lu, you're finished!
Looking at the wound in front of her, Ye Qingxi quickly got into character and immediately unleashed a series of punches on the wound.
He seemed surprised to find that he was injured, then raised his hand, touched his wound, and tears welled up in his eyes without him realizing it.
Seeing that he was about to cry, Qin Cheng hurriedly comforted him, "Don't cry, Xiao Xi, don't cry. I'll ask your uncle to make him apologize to you."
After he finished speaking, he asked worriedly, "Does it hurt a lot?"
Ye Qingxi nodded, looking aggrieved and sad, but she didn't say anything, not even daring to shed a tear. Her stubbornness was both endearing and pitiful.
Qin Yuan was heartbroken.
He definitely didn't want him, as the elder, to feel guilty!
So even though he was injured, he didn't say anything and just pretended to be strong!
If Qin Cheng hadn't discovered it, Ye Qingxi probably would have kept it a secret, not wanting them to worry.
Thinking of this, Qin Yuan felt even more guilty.
"Apologize!" he glared at Qiu Lu and said sternly.
Qiu Lu felt like he had heard a joke. "He bumped into me, and I'm supposed to apologize to him?!"
"He bumped into you, and he apologized. You injured him and ruined his cake, but you didn't apologize to him!"
"Why should I apologize to him? If he hadn't hit me, none of this would have happened!"
Enraged, Qin Yuan punched him twice, and the two started fighting again.
Qiu Lu, being the main character, did possess some martial arts skills, and this time, both he and Qin Yuan sustained minor injuries.
He stubbornly refused to apologize.
Qin Yuan looked at him and knew that she couldn't force him to submit.
In this situation, calling the police won't help.
The police usually try to mediate, hoping to get both sides to back down and stop pursuing the matter.
So he stopped talking and got into the car with his two children.
"Xiao Xi, don't worry, this won't end like this. I'll definitely make him apologize to you." Qin Yuan took his hand, looked at the wound on his hand, and assured him.
Ye Qingxi: ...
Ye Qingxi felt it was unnecessary.
Qin Yuan is a self-made millionaire. Although she is doing well now, her foundation is far inferior to that of the Mu family, so it's better to let her uncle handle it.
“It’s alright, Uncle,” he reassured him. “I’m not in pain; I don’t feel anything.”
Hearing him say that, Qin Yuan felt even more that he was well-behaved and sensible.
"It's my fault, I didn't protect you two well."
Ye Qingxi shook her head, "Uncle, you just beat him to a pulp, you've already protected us."
Qin Cheng nodded as well.
Qin Yuan smiled, but her heart was filled with regret.
If he had known, he shouldn't have brought Ye Qingxi and Qin Cheng along.
"Let me take you home first," he said.
He first took Ye Qingxi home, and then took Qin Cheng home.
Mu Shaoting had already woken up. Seeing Ye Qingxi return, he asked, "Did the cake arrive?"
Ye Qingxi thought for a moment and nodded.
If I say no, Mu Shaoting will definitely ask why, and when he hears about Qiu Lu, he will surely be angry and feel sorry for him.
No need.
He originally went to deliver a cake to Qiu Yue today, hoping to run into Qiu Lu and cause a conflict.
It's all done perfectly now, so there's no need to make Mu Shaoting angry about it.
"What did he say? Did he praise you?"
"Mm," Ye Qingxi said with a smile.
Mu Shaoting patted his head, "What a good baby."
On the other side, Qin Cheng stormed into his house.
"What's wrong?" Qin Luan asked, puzzled, seeing his expression. "Didn't you go to see Xiao Xi with your uncle? Why are you unhappy?"
Mu Zheng, who rarely leaves work on time, changed into his pajamas and came out of his bedroom after returning home early.
Seeing Qin Cheng's furrowed brow, he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Did someone bully you?"
"It wasn't me, it was Xiao Xi," Qin Cheng said.
Upon hearing this, Mu Zheng immediately became serious. "What's going on?"
Qin Cheng immediately recounted what had happened that afternoon.
Mu Zheng's face darkened as he listened.
Qin Luan asked with concern, "Is Xiao Xi's hand alright?"
"Xiao Xi said she's fine, but her skin is broken and bleeding, it must hurt a lot," Qin Cheng described in a vivid and subjective manner.
"This is outrageous!" Qin Luan said angrily. "Xiao Xi is only five years old. She didn't do it on purpose, and she apologized and offered to compensate us. How can a grown man like him hold a grudge against Xiao Xi and even hurt her hand and smash the cake on the ground? He's gone too far!"
Seeing that she was angry, Qin Cheng quickly said, "Mom, don't be angry, you can't be angry."
Mu Zheng also comforted her, saying, "Xiao Cheng is right, don't be angry. Since your brother is here, he won't let Xiao Xi suffer. He must have his own reasons. I'll call him in a bit and see what he has to say."
Qin Luan nodded, "Yes, but that Qiu Lu is a real scoundrel."
"Don't worry," Mu Zheng said. "I will make him apologize to Xiao Xi, and I will also make him compensate Xiao Xi for the cake."
Including injuries sustained.
"Really?" Qin Cheng looked at his father in surprise.
Mu Zheng patted his head and taught him, "Xiao Cheng, remember, no matter what grievances you encounter outside, or if anyone bullies you, you must tell your father when you get home. You are still young and do not have the ability to protect yourselves, so you need your father to protect you."
"Okay," Qin Cheng replied.
Mu Zheng stood up and went to call Qin Yuan.
Qin Yuan is on the phone with Qiu Yue.
Qiu Yue waited all afternoon, and seeing that it was almost time to leave work, but they still hadn't arrived, he couldn't help but call to ask, "Is there traffic on the road?"
"No traffic jam," Qin Yuan said.
Hearing his tone, Qiu Yue asked, "What's wrong? You don't seem very happy?"
"Qiu Yue," Qin Yuan said sternly, "I know you can't control your brother. As classmates, I'm giving you this heads-up: whatever happens next, you'd better not get involved. It's none of your business, and it's not worth getting involved in this mess for such a piece of trash."
Qiu Yue immediately sat up straight. "What do you mean? What happened?"
"Xiao Xi just went to deliver a cake to you and accidentally bumped into your younger brother. The cake got on his clothes, and Xiao Xi apologized and offered to buy him new clothes. But your younger brother slapped him, knocking the cake away and injuring his hand. After that, he wouldn't let it go, grabbing the child's collar and yelling at him. Xiao Cheng couldn't stand it and kicked him, and he started hitting Xiao Cheng. If I hadn't arrived in time, both children would have been hurt!"
Qin Yuan felt guilty and angry when she talked about this. "You've met Xiao Xi and Xiao Cheng. They're not the kind of brats. They're both very well-behaved kids. This isn't a big deal. The kids did everything they were supposed to do. And what happened?! I brought them to your company today, and now they're injured and wronged. Your brother hasn't even apologized. No parent could accept that, right? I certainly can't!"
"How could this happen?" Qiu Yue exclaimed in shock. "I'll order a new cake for Xiao Xi right now, and then call Qiu Lu to apologize to Xiao Xi and Xiao Cheng!"
"No need," Qin Yuan said. "He originally intended to give you the cake, so there's no need to order another one. As for your brother..."
Qin Yuan chuckled, "It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I don't trust your brother, Qiu Yue. Are your parents idiots? They actually want to leave the company to him. With his personality, he'll offend someone and not even know how he'll die. Just thinking about you having to compete with someone like that for the CEO position makes me feel sorry for you."
Qiu Yue: ...
Qiu Yue sighed. "Isn't that right?"
When he woke up in the middle of the night, he felt an indescribable sense of pathos and absurdity.
"I'd better try to persuade him first," Qiu Yue said.
He hung up the phone and called Qiu Lu.
However, Qiu Lu simply wouldn't answer his calls.
Having no other option, Qiu Yue went home first, hoping his parents could persuade Qiu Lu.
