Although she had turned pale from the pain, Yan Susu first looked anxiously at Lu Xingguang. “Did you get hit? Are you hurt? What did you stand in front of me for?! That is one solid walking stick. What would happen if you had been hit with it?”

“Stepmom, you’re yelling at me again…”

“I’m just glad that you’re all right…” Once again, Yan Susu took Lu Xingguang into her arms, whispering unsteadily in her lingering fear.

Wrapped snugly in her gentle embrace, Lu Xingguang could smell her sweet aroma, and he stayed still.

So fragrant, so gentle; he liked it very much…

“You wretched girl, you’d better apologize. Maybe, being a forgiving person, I will overlook this brash act of yours today. Otherwise, I will teach you a lesson that you will surely never forget for being so rude!” Old Mrs. Yan demanded harshly, looking at the pair with disdain.

Both motherless. Wild things without a mother’s love and upbringing!

Yan Susu’s head snapped up, and she glared fiercely at Old Mrs. Yan with rage-filled eyes. “Remember what you did to me today, and enjoy doing evil when you can, because your days are numbered.”

“What did you say?”

“I said, I will make sure that all the debts that the Yan family owes me and my mom will be repaid in full. I will make sure that you, you miserable old hag, will end up in a coffin sooner rather than later!”

It did not matter how hard she tried to be tolerant. The people in that family would never have anything good to say to her, so she resolved not to be weak anymore!

The hate and ruthlessness in her eyes frightened Old Mrs. Yan, rendering her motionless.

Taking a deep breath, Yan Susu tugged gently at Lu Xingguang’s hand. “Let’s go home.”

“No way! That vicious, ugly old woman is so horrible. I want revenge!” Shaking off Yan Susu’s hand, Lu Xingguang ran to a food stall at the side of the street and asked in his sweetest voice, “Pretty Aunty, can you please give me a bottle of chili oil?”

The stallholder was so thrilled at being called pretty that she gave him the bottle without hesitation.

Holding the bottle of chili oil in his hand, Lu Xingguang walked towards Yan Susu and said haughtily, “Lift me up.”

Obeying his order, Yan Susu lifted him up in her arms.

“Walk towards that ugly old woman and face her.”

Yan Susu did just that.

“What do you want?” Old Mrs. Yan shouted impatiently, intent on disregarding the pair of them.

“Old woman, your face is full of wrinkles. Let me give you some color.”

With that, Lu Xingguang splashed the chili oil onto her face. Reaching out with his chubby hands, he criss-crossed his hands and smeared with the chili oil with a ‘pat, pat’ sound. Then, he poked his fingers in Old Mrs. Yan’s eyes.

The entire sequence of actions was smoothly and swiftly executed.

When it was all done, Lu Xingguang stuck out his chin arrogantly and hummed in satisfaction.

“Ah——!” Eyes and face smarting from the chili oil, Old Mrs. Yan screamed till she went hoarse.

Hugging Lu Xingguang tightly in her arms, Yan Susu ran towards the end of the street, pulled open the car door, and jumped in, instructing, “Quickly, start the car.”

What if members of the Yan family decide to cause trouble for them?!

It was all right for her, she had long gotten used to the bullying, but Lu Xingguang was different. Also, he’d had to witness that ugly scene earlier…

Not aware of the reason for her speedy getaway, Lu Xingguang snorted grumpily, “Coward!”

He was none other than Lu Xingguang. Who would dare offend him?

“In the future, do not try anything so dangerous, do you understand?” Putting on a stern face, Yan Susu reprimanded him.

“Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to lecture me?”

“I don’t mean to lecture you, but that was a dangerous thing to do. What if you had gotten hurt?” Sighing, Yan Susu used a damp towel and cleaned Lu Xingguang’s hands very gently, just in case he tried to use them to rub his eyes.

Realizing her intention, Lu Xingguang retorted, “Do you think I’m stupid, like you?”

Pranking someone was a piece of cake to him. Anyone who dared bully him would have to pay the price.

That iceberg, Lu Zhanxiu, had once told him that members of the Lu family should always be the ones doing the bullying and that they must not allow themselves to be bullied by others!

Aware that she would never out-talk him, Yan Susu decided to keep quiet.

Due to their little detour, it was nine at night before the pair of them got home.

To ensure that they would not be busted for coming home late, they acted in unison and, crouching, they walked on tiptoe, intending to enter the house in stealth.

However, when they approached the end of the stairs, the lights in the living room suddenly flipped on.

Lu Zhanxiu was seated on the sofa with his arms crossed. Eyeing the two coldly, he said, “Mrs. Lu, Young Master Lu, happy to finally come home?”
