The Wind Blows Fallen Leaves Chapter 40

That’s right

The villa that should have been quiet in the past was now brightly lit. Zhuang Qingfu took Zhuang Yi’s ears and pulled him out of the car.

“It hurts, it hurts, sister, please be merciful.”

“I know it hurts. It’s all your fault. Stop talking when you go in and suppress this matter first. Do you hear me?” After Zhuang Qingfu let go, he just looked down at his phone and lifted his head up again.

“I know, I know, sister.” Zhuang Yi didn’t dare to move, so he could only bend down and let her tug on his ears.

After Zhuang Qingfu let go, Zhuang Yi felt as if his ears had been roasted on a fire. It was painful and hot, and the heat was so painful that it penetrated his bones when he touched it.

Taking advantage of Zhuang Qingfu’s departure, he dialed the phone, said a few words with a gloomy face, and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Zhuang Yi followed his sister with his head lowered, pitifully like a parent who felt guilty after a fight at school. Sure enough, as soon as he entered the hall, everyone sitting on the sofa turned their eyes.

“Mom and Dad, it’s so late and you’re still awake.”

Zhuang Yiju picked up a feather duster and hit him on the head, but fortunately Zhuang Yi was quick to avoid it.

“Dad, Mom.”

“You also know that I am your father. You are so lawless that I thought you jumped out of the cracks in the rocks.” Zhuang Yiju stood up angrily, his ears were as red as peppers, and his hands were pinching his waist, and his voice was a few degrees higher than usual.

While Li Jingtong helped Zhuang Yiju calm down, she winked at Zhuang Yi to ask him to admit his mistake first.

After receiving the information, Zhuang Yi knelt down with a plop, but his back was still upright. Even though he was kneeling, his unruly nature remained undiminished.

“Dad, I admit you hit me for anything today, but if it’s because of Zhuang Hao, I’m right.”

Li Jingtong didn’t expect him to be so stubborn, and Zhuang Qingfu also pushed him. Originally, the matter would be over after he admitted his mistake, but now Zhuang Yiju became even more angry after hearing his words.

Zhuang Yiju shook off Li Jingtong’s hand and wanted to hold his hand. He walked up to him and raised his hand to slap him. After much hesitation, he still couldn’t do it. He could only point at him with a trembling finger and said, “You do have some backbone.”

She picked up the feather duster on the ground and slapped him on his back hard, pulling up his clothes. Seeing this, Zhuang Qingfu and Li Jingtong both tried to stop him. Zhuang Yiju was stunned for a second. She thought he would avoid it, so she used 10% of her strength. Li Jingtong took the feather duster and hid it behind her. Zhuang Qingfu protected her brother underneath her. The skin was so hot that she could still feel it clearly even through two layers of clothes.

“That kid Zhuang Hao is not going to be a big success. Your second uncle sent him here because he wanted you to help him change his behavior. The result is good. Now that he’s been beaten like that, do you think he will let it go?”

Although Li Jingtong sympathized with him, when she saw the wounds on Zhuang Yi’s back, she felt that her son had been wronged just as much, and her eyes couldn’t help but moisten.

“Then I can’t let him act recklessly under my nose. Besides, he’ll be like this for the rest of his life. It’s just wishful thinking to change him.”

Zhuang Yi was very glad that he was in Mingyi today and not elsewhere, otherwise it would have had a great impact on him.

“Can a woman who has nothing to do with you make you kill your cousin?”

Zhuang Yi clutched his clothes tightly. The red mark on his back made him frown and his lower lip was bitten so hard that no blood showed, but he just refused to give in.

“I will do this no matter who it is tonight,” Zhuang Yi said, raising his head and looking up at him. In just a moment, tears poured out as if a valve had been opened. “Dad, the girl Zhuang Hao attacked is just like my sister. She is just a girl. What girl is not a treasure in the palm of your hand at home? If my sister falls into that situation tonight, will you let her go?”

“She is different from your sister. Your sister is the eldest lady of our banker. No one dares to disrespect her.” Zhuang Yiju looked at Zhuang Qingfu and even though he was moved for a moment, his expression immediately became serious when he thought of what he had committed.

“It is precisely because my sister is the eldest lady of the banker that no one dares to disrespect her. But that girl has no power. If I don’t step forward, what should she do? Let a scum like Zhuang Hao continue to live freely.”

Zhuang Yi spoke righteously and refused to give in at all. She was used to his sloppy appearance. These words made her sober as if she had walked out of it. Zhuang Qingfu knelt down next to him, wiped his embarrassed eyes, and stroked his trembling arms.

“Dad, it’s not like you don’t understand Zhuang Hao. If you let him go once, it will only go further the next time. We cleaned up his mess once, do we have to help him clean it up for the rest of our lives?”

The two of them talked back and forth, leaving Zhuang Yiju speechless. He could only sit back on the sofa sullenly. Li Jingtong got a glass of water and wanted to douse his fire.

“Quiet the fire, what the children said is not unreasonable. Zhuang Hao has been in the detention center before for this kind of thing. You paid for someone to bail him out. How long did it take to calm down before this incident happened? If you don’t teach him a lesson, it will become a time bomb over time. Not only will it bring trouble to the second son’s family, but it may also push the entire banker to the bottom.”

Zhuang Yiju was also in a dilemma. He was his younger brother’s son, but the person kneeling on the ground was his own son.

After thinking for a long time, he finally relaxed and Zhuang Yiju gave him an order, “No matter how reluctant you are, you must go and apologize to him in person tomorrow.”

Li Jingtong felt relieved, patted her chest and assured him, saying, “Okay, let him get up quickly. It’s so cold underground. His legs will hurt when he turns around.”

After saying that, she asked Zhuang Qingfu to help him up, and Zhuang Yiju shouted, “Why are you so anxious? He got into such a big trouble and he is lying in the hospital now. His legs hurt if he kneels for a little longer. He is so valuable.”

Li Jingtong instantly switched sides, looked at Zhuang Yi angrily, and said, “How can a grown man be as delicate as a little girl? Don’t get up. When will your dad calm down and when will he get up again? If your dad continues to be angry, you will keep kneeling until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

Zhuang Qingfu’s hand was hanging in the air, looking left and right, whether to support or not. She only hesitated for two seconds, and the battle followed closely.

“Why are you crying? If you are ashamed of such a grown man, you should kneel here and reflect. It’s not an exaggeration to kneel until your legs can’t stand up.”

Zhuang Yiju couldn’t do anything to the mother and daughter singing harmony, so he waved his hands and went back to the bedroom.

Li Jingtong followed closely to stabilize him, and Zhuang Qingfu confirmed that they had entered the room before helping him up. His legs had already gone numb after kneeling for so long. If Zhuang Qingfu hadn’t practiced, she wouldn’t have been able to hold him up.

Zhuang Qingfu raised his chin, and the pitiful look made her wrinkle the bridge of her nose in disgust, and said, “You are really crying. I am asking you to apologize tomorrow. Are you so wronged?”

Zhuang Yi grinned and twisted his body, shed tears in pain, and muttered: “It hurts me so much. Dad is really cruel to me. Come and see if I’m bleeding.”

Zhuang Yi took off his clothes, and there was a long red mark across his broad back. It looked scary, but luckily the skin was not broken. Zhuang Qingfu reached out and slapped her in the center of the red mark. Zhuang Yi stood up and shouted in pain.

“It’s crazy. It really hurts. I’m not kidding.”

Zhuang Qingfu was relieved and looked at him with a smile, “As much as it hurts, Dad has a hard mouth and a soft heart. Next time, let Dad hit you on the head and see if I can brighten your brain.”

“It hurts so much that I cry,” Zhuang Yi pointed to her tears and said, “But thinking about having to apologize to him tomorrow makes me really nervous, and he deserves it.”

“Then you don’t have to go.” Zhuang Qingfu said.

Zhuang Yi suddenly shrank, sighed, and said, “What if I don’t go to my second uncle’s place?”

“Xiao Yi.” Li Jingtong ran downstairs and didn’t dare to touch the red marks on her back, and her tears instantly fell down.

“Mom, please stop crying. It doesn’t hurt. It will be fine in two days.” Zhuang Yi looked upstairs cautiously and asked, “Dad, is he still angry?”

Li Jingtong sniffed and said, “Your dad knows that this is not all your fault. He is no longer angry. He regretted it after he hit you. Tomorrow you go apologize to Zhuang Hao and leave the rest to your dad. Just leave it alone.”

Zhuang Yi leaned softly in her arms, and the slightest movement could touch the longest and softest thread in her heart.
