Chapter 68
After returning his room, Xiao Yuerong cried with anger, “Grandma promised to help me, how could she go back on her words?!”
Zheng Pei’er was kind of dissatisfied with Wang Lu’s attitude of patching up a quarrel, too. But she still had a sense of proportion.
“Don’t be unreasonable. Your grandma certainly has her reason to act like that.”
Xiao Yuerong gnashed and said, “How proud that little fool is right now! It won’t take too long for him to disrespect me and make me his servant!”
When the little fool was bullied by Xiao Yuerong before, he didn’t dare to make a sound, but now he just became so rampant. And the third uncle was like having turned into a different person, who no longer kept silent when seeing the little fool was bullied by Xiao Yuerong.
Zheng Pei’er thought with her head down: ‘Not only Xiao Xiaofan becomes that rampant, so is Xiao Jingting. Xiao Jingting has always been jealous of Xiao Qingyan’s getting better treatment than him, now that he becomes more powerful, he must want to strive for a superior position.’
Xiao Jinfeng had always been earning his living with the mercenary team, but now he was standing with and defending Xiao Jingting all the time. Though Xiao Jinfeng was not considered important, he could bring trouble by colluding with Xiao Jingting.
After getting Xiao Yuerong and Xiao Yuefeng settled, Zheng Pei’er walked out of the room.
“Has our son fallen asleep? ”Xiao Qingyan asked with an unhappy look.
Zheng Pei’er nodded, “Yes.”
“Is Yuerong OK?” asked Xiao Qingyan.
“He’s been holding his head and crying out of pain.” Zheng Pei’er replied sadly.
“The third brother has never taken that little fool seriously before, but this time he should defend him like that!” Xiao Qingyan said bitterly.
“In my opinion, Xiao Jingting was not truly helping that little fool, but by this excuse he wanted to give you a hard time.” Zheng Pei’er analyzed.
Xiao Qingyan nodded, “You’re right. Now third brother is more powerful, he can become more ambitious as well. But I hate Xiao Jinfeng mostly, he just helps Xiao Jingting against me all around.”
Xiao Qingyan clenched his fist and thought, although their parents were still partial to him, since Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng made progress in their cultivation, their parents had also been impressed by the two and quite slighted him. But fortunately, both two guys had taken the miraculous medicine that led to the resistance to more drugs, and it could be hard for them to make further progress.

In Xiao Chengfeng’s secondary house.
“Mom, what makes you so happy?” Xiao Muhong looked at Liu Xian and asked.
Liu Xian smiled and replied, “It’s merely two days after Xiao Jingting’s coming back that his son has fought with Xiao Qingyan’s son. And it’s said that Xiao Yuerong was heavily injured by that little fool. Xiao Jingting had never taken that little fool seriously before, but this time he just defended him so much. It seemed Xiao Jingting and Xiao Qingyan had been acting against one another.”
Xiao Muhong sneered and thought: ‘It’s nice for those two brothers fighting against each other, otherwise, it’s the truly worrying situation to him.’
“Zheng Pei’er is not that tolerant. Since her son was bullied, she must has born grudges against Xiao Jingting.”
Liu Xian nodded, “That’s true. She is quite brute, and Xiao Yuerong just follows her mother and is a guy who never bears losing out.”
Xiao Yuerong was a bully-boy in the Xiao family, and usually just made people around serve him at his will, and his servants just respected him as a young master and were pushed around by him.
Xiao Yuerong also liked to bully his peers, especially those who were not favored, and thus had made a lot trouble. Though he was a child, he knew how to pick the weak guys who had no powerful background and could be easily handled by his mom, Zheng Pei’er, to bully. Hence, Xiao Xiaofan had always been bullied by him… But this time, Xiao Yuerong couldn’t have expected his failure. He was heavily injured on the head by Xiao Xiaofan, but Xiao Xiaofan was just okay, having nothing happened to him.
“I heard that Xiao Jingting treats your wife with indifference since his coming back this time, is that true?” asked Liu Xian.
Xiao Muhong nodded, “Yes. It seems Xiao Jingting has turned into a different man.” But it seemed that since Xiao Jingting came back, he got on better with Xu Muan.
Liu Xian said gravely, “I can’t understand how that guy was so lucky and should has advanced by 5 levels. When Xiao Jingting just arrived at the Mound Village, I had sent someone to inquire about him. My man returned and reported that he just wallowed in self-pity there, spending his money recklessly in gambling and getting into the Happy Powder.”
“Mom, who has been sent by you? Could he report you the fake message?” asked Xiao Muhong.
Liu Xian shook her head and said, “It shouldn’t be that case. It’s a loyalist having served me for years. I don’t think he would give me the fake message.”
…………
Walking through the long corridor, Xiao Jingting met Sun Miaomiao by accident. “Cousin-in-law.” Xiao Jingting greeted dispassionately and turned to leave.
“Jingting.” Sun Miaomiao called Xiao Jingting.
Sun Miaomiao’s ruefully calling just evoked a brain-bristled feeling to Xiao Jingting. Taking a look at Sun Miaomiao, he asked, “What’s up?”
“Are you still hating me, Jingting?” Sun Miaomiao asked with an upset face.
Xiao Jingting nodded, “Yes.”
Sun Miaomiao was shocked, since she couldn’t expect that he would admit it so flatly, “Just because of my marrying to your cousin?”
“No matter whom you marry to, it’s none of my business. But I am just astounded, is my pursuit of you make you so sick that your family just want me go astray and want my family torn apart?” Xiao Jingting said coldly.
“What are you talking about?” Sun Miaomiao said.
Xiao Jingting sneered, “Go back to ask your brother. If you don’t know the situation, he knows.”
