Chapter 44: Qin Qiao VS Zhan Qing

Zhan Qing’s hand that was petting Candy’s head paused. Was he thinking about that girl…?

This had never happened before. Did he fall ill recently?

The past few days in the camp, he would think of Qin Qiao from time to time. Now, he was thinking of women…

“Ah, she… she’s called Little Fairy!” Qin Qiao made up a name.

Because Fang Tang said that she was like a little fairy just now…

“Ninth Uncle, how did you know… that I have someone I like?” Qin Qiao pretended to ask, otherwise, it would not make any sense.

“You are not suitable for her. You’re not allowed to like her anymore!”

Zhan Qing stood up with Candy in his arms. The fire in his heart lit up again and he felt irritated.

Qin Qiao was speechless as she looked at Zhan Qing’s back.

She was a boy, so did he really need to give her such orders?

Not allowed…

“Ninth Uncle, I just secretly like her in my heart… I’m also getting engaged soon and I heard that Qi Meiwei is very shrewd. I won’t cause any trouble for the Zhan family!”

Qin Qiao said that on purpose.

Zhan Qing turned around and looked at Qin Qiao’s short, messy hair atop that handsome face. Afterward, he sighed impatiently.

This child thought that he did not allow her to like that Little Fairy because of his engagement.

“I will talk to your grandma sometime about your engagement.”

Zhan Qing was supposed to go back to the old manor that night to talk to his mother about it.

But something cropped up along the way, hence, the matter was put on hold.

“Oh…” Qin Qiao lowered her head and that attitude was that she did not care about how they arranged it for her.

“Qin Qiao, stand properly!” Zhan Qing directly kicked Qin Qiao’s calf.

Qin Qiao wanted to dodge it on reflex, but then she remembered that she had to pretend to be weak and so she purposely fell to the ground.

Because the way she fell was too real, Qin Qiao almost cursed out.

Her buttocks really hurt.

Qin Qiao raised her head and glared at Zhan Qing, but she quickly morphed her expression into a pitiful one.

Candy closed its eyes then opened them again, and by doing so, it looked very adorable. Perhaps Candy felt Qiao’s pain to a degree.

After all, she had fallen hard and it must hurt.

Uncle Tong, who came over with tea, happened to see Ninth Master kick Qin Qiao to the ground.

He immediately exclaimed, “Ouch!” He felt his heart clench with ache.

Because Qin Qiao was thin and small, it made people want to protect him.

Qin Qiao moved a little. It hurt so much…

Looking at Qin Qiao sprawled all over the ground, the anger in Zhan Qing became even bigger. He had never been so angry.

Useless thing…

He was used to kicking people in the camp and this was the first time he had seen a man fall to the ground with just one light kick.

“Uncle Tong, I asked you to give more nutrition to his meals. Did you do it?”

Zhan Qing asked as he looked at Uncle Tong.

“I did, Ninth Master. I did…” Uncle Tong could hear the anger in Ninth Master’s tone of voice.

It turned out that in the past few days, it was Ninth Uncle’s orders that she has big beef bones, chicken, duck, fish, and two bowls of rice in every meal.

Qin Qiao thought of that morning where she ate those steamed buns and fried dough sticks. Ninth Uncle thought that she was too weak.

She wanted to cry but had no tears. She was a girl, why did she have to become so strong?

“Get up!” Zhan Qing kicked Qin Qiao’s calf again.

However, compared to the previous kick, this one was much gentler.

Qin Qiao gritted her teeth. She really wanted to bite Ninth Uncle who bullied her…

She wanted to stand up, but who knew that she had hurt her tailbone.
