Xiao Bao had been cooped up in the mansion for over a week, bored out of his mind, to the point where he was throwing stones by the pond. Every day he would watch the fish and tease the birds, utterly bored. Su Yin, on the other hand, was hardly ever around, often staying out all night, enjoying himself who knows where. But today, for once, Su Yin was keeping him company to pass the time.iFzjshVUxnGdocpnXgVWbEWFmyCtGc

Su Yin was lounging on a bamboo couch, reading a book, looking completely relaxed and at ease.tBZGhqxRyfVmnPGiimDvhYxCrLrpLk

Xiao Bao had been in a cold war with Su Yin since that afternoon. However, it was a one-sided battle. Su Yin went about his business as usual, saying what he wanted, and didn’t seem to care about Xiao Bao’s angry glares, which made Xiao Bao fume with anger.INSmlXCMlGkJMqgKOjJBuvdoduaMnG

Continuing the cold war seemed pointless, and he had something to ask him.PwNbPgSzHNjNmvNeYEArDNUykZiPoX

“Hey.”auVoJdCYgPnKYbkhXfmbLttRBHCpeb

UuwYdiHJkuNkwXU

“Hmm.” Su Yin responded lazily, the sound coming deep from his throat, slow and with a slight tremor, without even lifting his eyelids.EOyVUwRMpegmXFKuDtYJpoAApDhCfT

“Why won’t you let Zuo Ying go?”FtnfoqtZgnXTcfoiMVcwtOozrwVxLC

“You’re too stupid. Explaining it to you is a waste of breath.” Su Yin said this not as an insult or mockery, but with the same calm tone as if stating that it was a sunny day, which only made Xiao Bao angrier.FVCFRpZtwmSeMkzHiVOuMYZYVWHIMr

“Su Yin!! Don’t go too far!! Don’t think that just because you’ve been out in the world a few years longer, you know everything better than me!!!”SZuYlinCgShyEkmAGUNsmdkiERtPJj

Su Yin closed the book and finally looked up at him. “Do you know who attacked you that day, what their background is, and why they wanted to kill you?”AIXVKBvuAIvGCJqOBbWfbSGVNLEzlw

“Uh… didn’t You Ying say it was some kind of Five Monsters?”mcMsLKfyiwYVbRwmxBbijChnfwUEzg

“You don’t know, do you want to investigate?” There was a rising anger in Su Yin’s eyes.ssmEHxXWlMWWzSHDufJnmJkTwugKRN

“Isn’t that what you’re for… and Dad will definitely investigate too…”MwILrokmkKZCETEKkQdZjfLNjWfIsV

“Getting beaten up without reason, and you still only rely on me and your father. Even if you’ve been in the Jianghu since you were three, you probably spent all your time on women. No wonder you’ve grown into nothing but flesh and still so stupid…”ZICBfnHdWCdnzqzKsJregiGrhAUudH

“You… you…” Xiao Bao’s face trembled with anger. He had known since childhood that he could never measure up to Su Yin. The carefree young master’s only lifelong shadow was his inferiority complex towards Su Yin. Now, being mocked so bluntly, he felt his pride was severely hurt. Moreover, Su Yin had rarely spoken so harshly to him since they grew up. Today, he didn’t hold back at all.ybQLIzHceLiVNQxpObFnotdkFlwtdK

Xiao Bao threw the small stone he had in his palm at Su Yin. As Su Yin caught the stone, Xiao Bao hurled himself at him.vzbJkZefCvCxpgKWMkHWuqgQArCduC

The fury from being grounded, the fury from being mocked, and the accumulated frustration of always being inferior to Su Yin all burst out at once. He lunged at Su Yin, throwing wild punches.eYZLQlfeDLdTKDRQUXGrPOJAFzgliK

Since they grew up, they hadn’t had such a physical fight. Mainly because the difference in their martial skills became more apparent, and Xiao Bao usually knew when to back down. So Su Yin didn’t expect him to suddenly lash out.XdxboYVmnbpFCmGkuVXpXCZnwxOWmk

The sensation of over 170 pounds of solid flesh crashing down from above was unbearable, even for a martial artist. Su Yin had to control himself not to kick that heap of flesh into the pond.bxhgBKSSdvGTsrFtDpSLiHaXXRDlbM

He had to use every bit of his strength to catch Xiao Bao, and with both hands occupied, he took a few punches from Xiao Bao.KcCDqyCDuARoeEXzHilKkOKRhhIVwl

Although Xiao Bao wasn’t skilled in martial arts, his enormous size gave him inherent strength. Taking a few punches from him was no small matter, and it hurt.XQNsEtfWKiKEdFWRLOrhjomLNaYvKA

Su Yin was also annoyed. He had spent several sleepless nights cleaning up the mess Xiao Bao had made, offending a powerful figure who could cover the sky with one hand. Su Yin was not only worried for Xiao Bao but for the entire Jin family. Although that person hadn’t taken any action yet, who knew when he would find out who had ruined his plans? What would they do then?xVYCIkGxhOGZtFQhShmYsqmulXUvWF

Other people’s childhood friends were well-matched in social status and had excellent character. How did he end up with such a useless troublemaker?oNrcjZxkdzKQxDXDhtLZvKASpRCBDY

Su Yin caught Xiao Bao’s flailing fists, grabbed Xiao Bao’s clothes with his other hand, and pulled him off, pinning Xiao Bao firmly underneath him.vHEhxUeVrjSihYoRAcjWXsxPzKzpld

Finally, Xiao Bao couldn’t move. His big, bright black eyes stared at Su Yin, his mouth tightly shut, breathing heavily through his nose. Su Yin glared coldly back at him.SRuRUmfnnragJAcZIwUQzmggkVpQde

After a while, Xiao Bao was the first to laugh.BpqPripFKXYToioRHrAZaqvyWGyUhS

“Heh heh, what’s this? Weren’t you supposed to be highly skilled in martial arts? Did you enjoy those punches from your Grandpa Jin?”VMbcnfYXnqLwCzYsaDekCfVzJxIrAf

Seeing the triumphant expression on Xiao Bao’s chubby round face, Su Yin couldn’t help but laugh in exasperation.pZitDyiMqdGIDFiMBrzOYhhoHikwyX

“Enjoyed them, enjoyed them. Reciprocity is a virtue; let me return the favor.” Su Yin reached towards Xiao Bao’s armpits…LsUenZULxaCWXITeVzPSCuToCdfYPF

“Hey… don’t… ah… hahaha… stop… Su Yin… I was wrong… stop… hahaha Su Yin, I was wrong… I was really wrong… I beg you…”UXxHswiPLyecuYgIzvMpWkPgBFGWDR

Xiao Bao was tortured until tears and saliva flowed. When Su Yin saw he had had enough, he finally stopped tickling him. Xiao Bao’s pitiful look reminded Su Yin of their childhood. Xiao Bao still loved to show off and always did foolish things. After all these years, he hadn’t grown up or improved. Su Yin couldn’t stay angry for long…wRopjpMwFdVyQkxnQLvKBwTnGnltOb

The two remained in an awkward position, both panting heavily.yAuiMmadchHfrGRDfyyswTgSNWIWRZ

Su Yin exhaled, then suddenly tensed his eyebrows, his eyes turning sharp, “Who’s there! Come out!”lThqprmrAuVAaogDCPKgffaEkKehLd
