294. Chapter 294: On What Grounds Did You Let Him Leave

Cheng Jinyu didn't think much about what Qiao Sheng said; he opened his mouth and said, "Aunt Qiao, I'm so hungry, the food at the academy today was terrible, I barely ate anything."

"Let's go, to the backyard."

Qiao Sheng gave Lai Fu a glance, signaling him to leave now.

Cheng Jinyu's mind was filled with delicious food, so he didn't notice that Lai Fu had already left.

"Aunt Qiao, where is the food?"

As soon as Cheng Jinyu entered the backyard, he asked Qiao Sheng.

It was at that moment.

Qiao Sheng stopped, looked at him and asked, "Jinyu, do you have homework today?"

He heard the words.

Cheng Jinyu lifted his chin and said, "Yes, but I don't have to do it. Our teacher—if I don't do it, he can't do anything to me. Aunt Qiao, you don't have to worry about that…"

This kid.

Qiao Sheng stared at Cheng Jinyu and said, "You must have forgotten what I just said. I told you that from now on you have to listen to me; you can eat if you finish your homework first."

"I don't want to do homework!"

Cheng Jinyu spoke up.

Before Qiao Sheng could say anything.

Cheng Jinyu turned around to look for Lai Fu, found he wasn't there, and just as he was about to go out to search, Qiao Sheng stopped him: "Lai Fu has already left; I let him go."

"He's my servant; on what grounds did you let him leave!"

Cheng Jinyu shouted angrily.

He's not old, but his temper is quite big.

Qiao Sheng said expressionlessly, "Since your mother entrusted you to me, now that you're here, you have to do everything yourself; you can't rely on anyone."

"I don't…"

Cheng Jinyu bolted toward the exit, but before he got far, An Liu and the others blocked him.

He tried to run another way, but they still stopped him.

Cheng Jinyu, angry to the point of tears, sat on the ground and began wailing loudly.

"Madam Qiao, he's crying…"

An Shi said to Qiao Sheng, who was standing aside.

Cheng Jinyu can cry.

Qiao Sheng was not surprised at all; she said, "You stay here and guard him. If he doesn't do his homework today, not only will he miss later snacks, but he won't even have a portion of tonight's dinner either."

"Wow…"

Cheng Jinyu cried even louder.

Qiao Sheng walked toward the main hall without looking back; the distance muffled his voice considerably.

She closed the door from the hall to the backyard, and the sound stopped instantly.

Let alone.

The soundproofing is pretty good.

Cheng Jinyu had eaten some snacks earlier, so he could still hold on; no matter how An Liu and the others urged him, he refused to do homework and kept scolding them, scolding Qiao Sheng.

Xiao Shitou and his group finish school a bit later.

An Liu, uneasy about An Shi fetching them, kept watch as he went to pick up Xiao Shitou and the others.

He learned that Cheng Xianglan had entrusted Cheng Jinyu to her own mother.

Xiao Shitou frowned.

He had spoken with Cheng Jinyu before.

He only eats and plays, and also likes to insult and bully people.

He doesn't like him.

Shi Jin's brows furrowed as well: "An Liu, what does Aunt Qiao think…"

An Liu replied to Shi Jin while driving the carriage.

"Cheng Xianglan and your Aunt Qiao are friends; when someone approached her, she couldn't easily refuse, right? It's just that kid is too troublesome—no matter how you persuade him, he won't do his homework."

Shi Yun said from beside, "If he doesn't do homework, give him a beating—if one beating won't work, give him two."

He also doesn't like Cheng Jinyu.

Shi Ren said nothing.

His usual attitude is: if you don't provoke me, I won't provoke you.

If Cheng Jinyu dares to provoke him.

He will definitely not be courteous to him.

Xiao Shitou asked, "Uncle An Liu, is Cheng Jinyu now at the restaurant?"
