ch 135 – Taught Every One A Tough Lesson; Dimension Leveled Up (8)
“Yes, Qingtong understood!”
As they were talking, they also entered deep into the mountain range of Mount Daan. Under the directions of the villagers and Cheng Zheng Yuan, they began that day’s work.
After returning from the dimension, Cheng Xiao Xiao walked outside of the house and saw one more person still sitting in the courtyard and her expression turned cold right away.
Cheng Biyuan and Mrs. Cheng saw their precious daughter and stopped their chattering. They looked like they wanted to say something to her, but didn’t know how to say it.
“Mom, dad, you guys carry on!” Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded at her parents, then turned to Gu Junxian and said, “We will add the time you stalled back later. You will leave when you’ve logged the correct amount of trees!”
“…..” Gu Junxian was stunned silent.
Mrs. Chengs was about to say something before Cheng Xiao Xiao interrupted, “Mom, I make the call here, you stay out of it. Everybody from School of Divine, no matter who he is, must go logging. This was promised to us by the bearded old man!”
“Xiao Xiao…”
“There’s no need to say anymore, I won’t agree to it!”
“Fine!” The obviously enraged Gu Junxian stood up abruptly and cupped his hands at Cheng Biyuan and Mrs. Cheng, “Uncle Cheng, Aunty Cheng, I am a student of School of Divine Condor, I will go do what I need to.”
“That will be best. We wouldn’t want you to be more embarrassed!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao coldly and left!
Gu Junxian glared stright at her back with a deep and undecipherable look. Then without looking at Cheng Biyuan and Mrs. Cheng again, left wordlessly.
After the two had left the courtyard, Mrs. Cheng looked at the now emptied courtyard and couldn’t help but sighed, “Xiao Xiao is such a brat. She didn’t need to treat Junxian like that even if she doesn’t like him!”
“She has her reasons!” frowned Cheng Biyuan.
“Reasons? What kind of reasons?” Mrs. Cheng was not happy with his reply, “Look at her? She’s so mean as a girl. And now she doesn’t want Junxian either. What are her days in the future going to be like?”
“There’s nothing you can do about it. Just let her pick for herself, she’ll find someone!”
Cheng Biyuan’s eyes flickered and he continued to talk, “The Gu’s isn’t a bad family, but they are not a good fit for Xiao Xiao. There’s no point in forcing it. In any case, they must like her, otherwise, nobody will be happy. We are better off without them!”
“Hrm, you always have your reasons. I don’t care anymore!”
Cheng Biyuan didn’t know who Mrs. Cheng was angry at. With a deep voice she said, “Junxian was treated so poorly at our place. What are you going to tell Uncle Gu in the future!?”
“Don’t worry about that, and there’s nothing you can do about it anyway. I am going to go check on our new house!”
Cheng Biyuan didn’t want to continue discussion on the subject. After all, as far as his daughter’s marriage is concerned, he leaned much more toward what she wanted. After all, she was not the same person as before. He didn’t want to force her to marry someone she didn’t like.
He had already heard it in her tone. There was no way she was going to get with young Gu.
After walking outside, Cheng Xiao Xiao happened to run into Liu Tianshan who was coming back from surveilling. She suddenly recalled something and stopped him from going to take a rest, “Shi xiong Tianshan, wait a minute!”
“Shi mei, what’s the matter?” Liu Tianshan stopped and asked, while wiping some of his sweats away.
“Shi xiong Tianshan, sorry to trouble you. Can I ask you to make one more trip for me?”
“A trip? Sure, what’s up? I am not tired, just let me know what you need me to help with.”
“Thank you, shi xiong Tianshan!” Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and fished out one jo of silver and handed it over to him, “Shi xiong Tianshan, please go into town at the fastest possible speed and buy me 60 water bottles and lunch boxes. The more the better!”
