flamboyant - Kapitel 47
"If you don't move aside, you'll get a hundred lashes!" Damn it, you might as well just kill me.
Wu Hui stood to my right, Zi Mo to my left, and Chou Qian in front of me. It seemed I couldn't swing this stick anymore.
"Get out of my way!" Qianqing was probably still unsatisfied last night, and she took her anger out on me.
Wu Hui looked at my bull-eyed eyes and felt a little sympathy, saying, "I'll treat you to something good when we get back, just bear with it!"
"Take this as a lesson, Ziyi!" Chouqian offered another piece of hindsight advice.
"Xiao Yi, I'm going back to accompany you on your blind date. You won't have to sneak off to see Liu Er anymore!" Really?! Great news.
"Who is Liu Er!" someone exclaimed. Ugly Qian joined in the fun.
Damn it! All my smug thinking I'd had a successful affair turned out to be a lie.
While we were focusing on Liu Er, no one noticed that Hun Danzhen on the right had hit me on the butt with the board.
"Wah—! Wah—! Wah!—Wah!—Wah! I don't want to live anymore!" I screamed like a pig being slaughtered. It's all my fault for spending so much time with Liu Er and picking up all his bad habits.
I screamed without any regard for my image, it really hurt! You try it if you don't believe me! I rolled around on the ground in agony. My legs were cramping.
Zi Mo, Wu Hui, and Chou Qian all looked at Qian Qing.
My voice became hoarse from crying and screaming.
Qianqing glared at me, her nostrils flaring. "Take him back. Don't let him get in my way!"
Ah! Great! Does that mean we won't get beaten up once we get out? Let's get out! Let's get out of here right away!
Zi Mo picked me up and said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!" and ran outside as fast as he could.
Thank me for what? He hit me, what's there to thank? Let him wait and see, I'll definitely get my revenge for this blow.
"We take our leave!" Wu Hui and Chou Qian also withdrew.
They all came out to leave him all alone.
No regrets following my bullish words: "Does it hurt? Let's see if you dare to be arrogant again!" Seems like you're more arrogant than me!
Chou Qian wiped my nose and said, "Don't easily mess with people you shouldn't in the future. Serving a king is like serving a tiger!" Tiger my foot, he's become a lion.
I'm never coming back. I'm going back to resign and see how he beats me.
My mother, suppressing her anger, applied medicine to me. I cowered timidly, afraid of provoking the tigress and incurring her wrath.
The beautiful woman helped me apply the medicine, then placed her treasure box by my bedside.
"Open it and take a look." My mother sat on the edge of the bed, and I squinted my eyes, gazing at the treasure box that I had seen hundreds of times in the sunlight.
"Dear Mother, is this for me?" I carefully touched the precious thing I had longed for.
"This is for you." I knew Mom was rich, and now I finally know just how rich she is. I opened it with drooling admiration.
She owned two publishing houses, six restaurants, and clothing stores and brothels throughout half of Dongqing.
Damn it, I suddenly became a millionaire! I can finally live without having to depend on someone's whims.
"Resign from office."
"Good." My mother stared at me in a daze. "So efficient."
"That's right. Let's become rich merchants, the top scholar in all 360 trades."
"You brat, talking nonsense again."
"Don't hit his head, you'll make him stupid."
With a large amount of wealth in my hands, I resolutely decided to quit my job. I wrote a resignation letter and asked Zi Mo to deliver it.
"What is this?" Zi Mo asked.
"A confession!" I lied to him.
"You've really grown up." Zi Mo patted the top of my head and praised me.
"Hehe." I hope that when that petty person takes their anger out on you, you'll still praise me.
After a month of recuperation, Laozi recovered but still pretended to be seriously ill at home.
The ladyboy was holding all sorts of supplements and asked me what I wanted to eat.
"I'll eat you."
"What?" The transvestite was deaf.
"Eat rice."
"Rice? I didn't bring any." The trans woman spread her hands, indicating that she had forgotten to bring rice.
"You came here without me!"
"I took the others, so don't pick and choose." The ladyboy took out the supplements and let me choose.
"I want to go out." I didn't want to take any supplements. Zi Mo almost made me throw up. Do you think I have to put up with your stuff?!
"With injuries like this, what are you going out for? Just stay home and behave yourself." The transgender person fed me a bowl of bird's nest soup.
"No, I want to go out."
