Even a rabbit will bite when pushed too far. After thinking for a day and a night, I finally decided to confront the eldest daughter head-on

Next door, in the yard.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. What does it look like for a big boy like you to be sniveling like this?"

Tang Yuyao squatted aside, trying to console her youngest nephew who was lying on the ground, looking pitiful and shedding tears, as if half - dead.

Details... He was lying prone.

Because if he were to lie on his back now, his butt would hurt terribly.

His poor buttocks had really suffered. After enduring ten spanks from his aunt, his father had given him another round right away. Life was truly tough. Only after leaving home did he realize that there was no rain outside (a metaphor for the harsh reality at home).

He was in a state of self - isolation, feeling that he would never smile again in this lifetime and that his heart was as cold as concrete.

And then... well, he ended up like this, lying motionless on the ground and quietly shedding little teardrops.

Seeing this, Tang Yuyao felt a twinge of guilt. After all, she had a "tiny bit of responsibility" for what had happened the day before, which had caused her nephew to lose sleep.

As a result, he didn't go to school today. As for the phone... well, kids aren't supposed to play with their phones at night anyway. She was just acting on behalf of justice, helping her wayward nephew get back on the right track!

It was a just act!

She felt guilty, but not entirely. After some self - persuasion, Tang Yuyao managed to comfort herself.

Then, to ease her conscience, she came over to console her nephew. She squatted beside him and gently poked him.

"Auntie will buy you something delicious."

The young boy remained unmoved and continued to cry.

Tang Yuyao: "..."

"Auntie will take you to play games?" Tang Yuyao tentatively suggested.

Oh!

Finally, there was a reaction this time!

He cried even louder!

Tang Yuyao: "???"

What do you mean, kid!

Do you look down on me?

Tang Yuyao's anger soared...

But as soon as she saw the poor - looking boy, her anger quickly subsided. Well... maybe she had indeed gone too far.

Cough, well, she was an elder after all, so she wouldn't argue with a little kid.

There was nothing else she could do. Tang Yuyao had to think of other ways to comfort the boy, like bringing up Xiao Hong.

"Xiaobao, I heard that Xiao Hong likes boys with a sense of masculinity. Look at you..."

It was still a goading tactic. Xiaobao wasn't an ordinary five - year - old. An ordinary goading wouldn't work on him, but if the goading involved Xiao Hong, it would be different.

Tang Yuyao dangled the bait, three inches above the water, and Xiaobao took the hook...

The moment the hook was cast, Xiaobao stopped crying. Although his face was still stained with tears and dirt from the ground, looking a bit disheveled, his young face showed two words.

"Proud" (the Chinese here sounds like "not hot" when pronounced, and it's a pun in the original text).

Tang Yuyao's mouth twitched as she tried hard not to burst out laughing. She continued to coax him, "A man with a sense of masculinity doesn't lie on the ground. After all, the wounds on your back are a man's shame!"

Her tone suddenly became much more serious, with an inexplicable sense of solemnity and sacredness.

Xiaobao's pupils constricted, and his body trembled as if he had been inspired. But he didn't want to get up right away, so he rolled over, seemingly forgetting about his current situation.

"Ahhh!!!"

As soon as he turned over, Xiaobao immediately opened his mouth wide and let out a shrill scream. His little tongue flapped around like a rattle, almost flying out.

Plop.

The "upside - down fish" he had just managed to become immediately flipped back to its original position.

Tang Yuyao: "..."

The scene was inexplicably abstract and funny. Tang Yuyao tried hard not to laugh out loud, coughed twice, and put on a serious and solemn look.

"Cough, good, Xiaobao. Just like this. If I were Xiao Hong, I'd be head - over - heels in love with you right now!"

It was another classic red herring. Poor Xiaobao was being manipulated by this single older woman.

As for the truth...

She wasn't Xiao Hong, so she didn't need to be responsible for what she had just said. Even if she were, she could just change her story later, right?

"Really, auntie? Am I really handsome now! Do I really have a sense of masculinity!" Xiaobao looked pitiful, his eyes shining, sniffling his snot as he stared at his aunt full of expectation.

He hoped to hear an affirmative answer from his aunt.

Tang Yuyao: "..."

This chubby kid...

"Yes, of course. When has auntie ever lied to you? If I were Xiao Hong, I'd be head - over - heels in love with you by now..."

Yeah, right.

After saying that, Tang Yuyao was still afraid of divine retribution, so she silently added a mental note, which made her feel a bit better.

This way... it should be okay, right?

"Hehe, hehe..." Xiaobao got up from the ground, sniveling and grinning stupidly. He looked extremely silly, as if his head was as smooth as an egg.

Tang Yuyao: "..."

"Alright, auntie will take you out to eat something delicious. Come on, do you want to eat chicken legs or barbecue? You decide."

Tang Yuyao patted the dirty clothes of the young boy. She decided to spend some money, after all, she had snatched his phone the day before.

Incidentally, she wondered if she could invite someone else to have dinner with them...

"Tap, tap, tap..."

Tang Yuyao furtively glanced around. After making sure there was no one around, she took out her phone and sent a message to Ye Cheng. The crisp typing sound echoed in the air.

"Two of us are waiting for you. Unlimited barbecue, come quickly."

After sending the message, the corners of Tang Yuyao's mouth couldn't help but curl up. Imagining Ye Cheng licking his lips and rushing over like a starving ghost, she almost turned into a giggling mess.

Xiaobao: "..."

Standing aside, sniffling and watching all this, Xiaobao fell silent. It seemed that his aunt had started having those strange daydreams again.

It was just like in the TV shows. His aunt was a typical case of being bad at something but still wanting to play, calling for help when she couldn't handle it, then putting pressure on her teammates, and finally indulging in wild fantasies. It was like an old cow trying to eat young grass...

The label of "old cow trying to eat young grass" seemed to be stuck on Tang Yuyao and couldn't be removed. Now, whenever people saw her, they would probably mutter something about "old cow, why are you trying to eat young grass..."

"Xiaobao, what kind of look is that? Are you muttering about me in your heart!"

Suddenly, Tang Yuyao turned her head, squinting her eyes and looking at Xiaobao who was standing there with a scrutinizing look.

Xiaobao: "???"

Xiaobao covered his mouth, blinked his tiny bean - sized eyes, and his eyes were filled with the innocence of a "good - natured person".

"How could it be? You're my most, most, most... beloved aunt, so kind and beautiful, the aunt that uncle loves the most..."

"Well, you know how to talk, kid. Hahaha..." Tang Yuyao tried hard to hold back the smile at the corners of her mouth, almost turning into a laughing mess. In the end, she couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing, a loud, cackling laugh like a duck, as if her little tongue was about to fly out of her mouth.

Xiaobao: "..."

Auntie, you...

While the aunt and niece were flattering each other in the yard, a furtive head poked in from outside the yard.

Tang Shouye, who looked almost like an enlarged version of his youngest son, was lying outside the yard, frowning as he looked inside.

"Hiss... This is difficult," Tang Shouye said with a bitter face. He had already come up with a plan, but he felt that the probability of success was not high...

Especially considering his younger sister's personality, there was a high probability that she would scold him. Even if his mother was there to cover for him, it was still very dangerous.

Was there any way to execute the plan without getting hurt or attracting hatred?

Finally, his gaze fell on his youngest son beside him. The youngest son was still there boasting non - stop, saying things like, "Auntie is the most amazing..." Tang Yuyao was as happy as a child of several hundred months old.

As we all know, children don't lie. The youngest son was only five years old, a proper child. He wasn't even a primary school student; at most, he was a kid in the senior kindergarten class.

It must be the truth!

"You're the one, son!" Tang Shouye's eyes lit up as if he had made some kind of determination.

Half an hour later.

At a roadside stall in Dahai City, a strange pair was having skewers.

There was a cold, intellectual, and extremely beautiful leggy mature woman, and a comical little chubby boy less than one meter tall, with grease all over his mouth.

The older one was not very happy, looking as if someone owed her two million dollars. Oh no... It was more than that. In sharp contrast, the youngest son beside her was elbow - deep in a chicken wing.

"So cool!"

The youngest son let out a loud cry. All his previous grievances towards his aunt had now vanished into thin air, leaving only loyalty!

Although the family was rich, he wasn't allowed to eat a lot of unhealthy food under the supervision of his "kind - hearted mother". Things like spicy strips and small grilled snacks could only be dreamed of.

If he ate more, he'd be fat enough to be served on the table during the Spring Festival.

Thanks to Tang Yuyao today, he could finally eat to his heart's content!

Even if Li Juan found out, she couldn't say anything. She couldn't afford to fall out with her husband's little sister.

Didn't she see how precious the old lady in the family was? As an outsider, how dare she say anything...

Taking advantage of someone else's power!

The youngest son: So cool!!!

"Auntie, from now on, you're my real auntie. Chomp, chomp... By the way, chomp, chomp, why aren't you eating, auntie? Chomp, chomp..."

As the youngest son was talking, he stuffed two more grilled chicken wings into his mouth and kept munching away, completely in a daze from the deliciousness.

Tang Yuyao: "..."

All you know is eat! Eat!

Just looking at him made her angry!

Tang Yuyao let out a soft snort. The delicious skewer in her hand now tasted like wax. No matter how she ate it, it didn't taste good. She took a bite and then stared at her phone for five minutes, then took another bite and stared again.

It seemed that she was waiting for someone's message.

"Where did he go, this guy!" Tang Yuyao frowned, and her tone became irritated.

According to her original expectation, Ye Cheng should have rushed over quickly, shouting "Save some for me" on the way... That's how the script should have gone.

Why didn't he even reply to a single message?

So annoying!

Her patience seemed to have reached its limit. From yesterday until now, more than ten hours had passed, and there was no sign of life from Ye Cheng.

If it weren't for previous instances like this, Tang Yuyao would have already called to question Ye Cheng about why he didn't reply to her messages.

Thinking that Ye Cheng might be under the strict control of the eldest young lady and the student council president, she had endured it until now.

Now... She couldn't bear it anymore!

Shen Qinghan, don't think I'm afraid of you!

Even a cornered rabbit will bite, let alone a person. Driven to the limit, Tang Yuyao finally decided to confront the eldest young lady head - on!

"Beep, beep, beep..."

"The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

"Hmm?" Tang Yuyao's willow - leaf eyebrows knitted together.

Can't get through?

Could something have happened to him?

A series of expressions flashed across Tang Yuyao's face as if she had thought of something... Not far away, Tang Shouye, who was secretly hiding in the corner watching this scene, turned several shades paler.

Tang Shouye: Nooo!!!
