Arc 6 – Slag that Little Wolfhound
Chapter 139

Wen Yu’s gaze had been both intentionally and unintentionally following Chi Zhao around. Seeing his face suddenly darken, Wen Yu walked over without a second word.

Standing next to Chi Zhao, Wen Yu glanced at Wen Mu who was still attached to him and then asked in a low voice, “Father, what’s wrong?”

Chi Zhao was silent. He gently held Wen Mu’s hand, gesturing for him to close his hands and Wen Mu did as he was instructed. Wen Yu didn’t see what Wen Mu was holding but his eyes were fixed onto the two hands holding each other.

Although the other person was his younger brother, Wen Yu also found him an eyesore at this very moment.

Chi Zhao had his back to Wen Yu, so he didn’t see his expression. He smiled at Wen Mu, “A’Mu, which big sister gave you that?”

Wen Mu turned around and looked in a particular direction. There was a woman in her twenties talking to Mr. Jiang. Chi Zhao frowned and looked at her for a while, but he still couldn’t remember who she was.

While he was deep in thought, Wen Yu said in his ear, “Father, that is the eldest daughter of the Wang Family.”

There were too many families Wen Xijun dealt with so unless the other party was very important, Wen Xijun wouldn’t remember the appearance of all the family members. Wen Yu’s timely reminder allowed Chi Zhao to recognise that woman’s identity.

It was a very bold background character.

There were too many powerful families named in the plot but in the end, there was no one surnamed Wang.

Chi Zhao now understood. He looked down at Wen Mu who was still waiting for his answer, “A’Mu, go and return that to that big sister. Be polite and let Uncle Jiang and the others see that you’re a gentle and polite boy, understand?”

Wen Mu blinked a few times and very quickly revealed a sweet smile, “I understand, father.”

For the children of the Wen Family, Wen Xijun was their everything. Whatever he said, they would do it without thinking about the possible consequences.

When Wen Mu reached Miss Wang’s side and Miss Wang saw that he seemed to be wanting to say something, she felt her heart fall. She originally thought that it was fortunate that Wen Mu didn’t seem to be too ignorant but as it turned out, Wen Mu was just that ignorant.

In the presence of Mr. Jiang and the other guests, Wen Mu gave her room card back and very quickly went through what happened with just a few lines. His voice wasn’t loud, but Wen Mu was very attention-drawing, so a lot of people looked over when they saw him walking over. Hearing Wen Mu’s words, they then looked at Miss Wang, their gazes changing a little.

Mr. Jiang took a closer look. He gave Miss Wang a deep look and then turned to look at Wen Mu, “A’Mu, uncle has a lot of precious collections. Would you like to see?”

Mr. Jiang led Wen Mu away, leaving Miss Wang, whose face quickly alternated back and forth between red and white.

Chi Zhao watched this entire process and couldn’t help but let out a laugh. He then turned to Wen Yu, “Keep an eye on A’Mu. Don’t let anything happen to him.”

Wen Yu looked at the small trace of smile still lingering on Chi Zhao’s face. He pursed his lips and finally nodded.

There were too many children but too few guardians. Although Wen Mu was being watched and no other accidents occurred, the others who weren’t being watched had their own troubles to deal with.

When Chi Zhao was called over, there were several adults already there. Wen Xin had her brows furrowed as she stood beside Wen Xi and opposite them was a young girl around the same age as Wen Xi crying pitifully. She gripped her dress tightly as large tears rolled down her cheeks. It was a particularly distressing sight to see.

Chi Zhao felt a headache forming. He could see with one glance that there had been a conflict between the children. Did he also have to deal with this?

What’s more, wasn’t Wen Xin there as well? Why did they call him over?

Seeing him coming, Wen Xi’s originally cold expression became a little tense. She seemed to be very nervous. Realising that his existence made the little girl uncomfortable, Chi Zhao could only stop in place and no longer move closer.

When Wen Xi saw him standing on the edge like an outsider, her originally upset mood turned for the worse. She lowered her head and stopped looking at anyone.

When the people around saw Wen Xijun coming, pretty much everyone’s expressions went through some changes. Most of the people standing there were women. Their shrill voices made Chi Zhao’s head hurt and he looked around the crowd with a frown before finally naming Wen Xin, “A’Xin, what’s going on.”

No matter what actually happened, Wen Xijun would still protect his children. Wen Xin breathed a sigh of relief and walked over with Wen Xi. She very quickly explained the situation.

A few girls of the same age were standing together talking and at some point, the other girls left, leaving Wen Xi and that child alone together. At that moment, Wen Xi suddenly poured wine on the girl, making the girl cry.

Many people saw it. Wen Xin hurried over to ask about the situation but Wen Xi stubbornly refused to speak and even insisted that she had done it on purpose.

Chi Zhao had no experience dealing with little girls. Although he was recognised as a fellow sister by his female classmates, a twelve-year-old girl was still completely different from a twenty-year-old girl.

Chi Zhao looked at Wen Xi, but Wen Xi was looking down at her toes. No one spoke for a while. On the other end, the young girl’s mother spoke up.

“We’re not unreasonable people. Mr. Wen, we came here today to celebrate the coming of age of Jiang Family’s two young ladies, making a ruckus isn’t good. As the saying goes, harmony brings wealth. You don’t need to blame your daughter, let’s just put this behind us.”

She didn’t mention anything about Wen Xi apologising and the words were spoken with a very generous attitude, but Chi Zhao frowned when he heard this.

Wasn’t that equivalent to admitting that Wen Xi was in the wrong?

Chi Zhao ignored that mother and asked Wen Xi, “A’Xi, why did you do it?”

This incident wasn’t the same as Wen Mu’s incident just now. Everything was at stalemate. Very soon, the others who were originally enjoying the alcohol also started to look over. Wen Lie and Wen Zhuang also came over. Seeing that one of the protagonists involved was Wen Xi, they similarly asked, “What happened?”

Wen Xi still didn’t speak.

The young girl opposite her was no longer crying. A small trace of contempt flashed in her eyes when she looked at Wen Xi.

Look at that, sure enough trash is just trash. She doesn’t even have the ability to defend herself, how pitiful.

All the family members had come over. Wen Mu even had to squeeze past other people to reach them. When he reached her side, he held her hand to show his concern for her. Wen Xi’s eyelashes trembled. She raised her head and looked towards Chi Zhao.

Chi Zhao originally hated being watched and the situation at this very moment made him even more irritated. He originally wanted to bring his children over to participate in a harmonious cocktail party but he didn’t expect there to be so many bad people here and every one of them even had their eyes on his children.

Chi Zhao approached Wen Xi and pressed down on her thin shoulder. He lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, “It can’t be more embarrassing than this very moment.”

That’s why, you should speak up.

Wen Xi understood what he was saying. She was silent for a second before finally opening her mouth, “She said that I am someone who grew up in a dirty sewer, a crayfish that only knows to eat garbage, that our family is dirty and disgusting and that we should all return to that smelly and dark sewer to continue eating the rubbish she considerately throws at us.”

The insulted party was clearly Wen Xin, but she didn’t say anything. Firstly, it was because no one would listen; that other girl was recognised as a good child by the others so people would easily believe in her words instead. Secondly, that girl had touched on a topic she had always been sensitive about. She would rather take the blame than let the other hear those insults.

When Wen Xi was done, that young girl immediately stood up. Her eyes were wide open, and her expression was incredulous, “I didn’t say that! How dare you slander me?!”

At this moment, the expressions of the members of then Wen Family weren’t too good. Wen Lie stepped forward. For once, there was no warmth in his eyes, “So you’re saying that my sister is lying?”

“Since she can pour alcohol on someone, lying shouldn’t be a problem for her either.”

Unable to bear with it, Wen Zhuang rolled up his sleeves, ready to jump in, but the person who spoke was a woman so he couldn’t hit them.

Wen Yu held back the emotionally charged Wen Zhuang and looked deeply back at the young girl who was guarded in her mother’s arms.

In fact, he also wanted to take action but compared to Wen Zhuang who cared about the other party’s gender, it didn’t matter to him whether they’re male or female. It was just that there were too many people around, so it wasn’t a good place to do anything.

Wen Xi was guarded by her elder brothers and sisters. Even her usually kind eldest brother and sister were angry. Wen Mu had his arms around her shoulders, letting her lean against him. Her nose felt a little sour. Wen Xi suddenly had the urge to cry.

For the first time, she felt that she was also a child with a family.

For the first time, she experienced what it was like being protected.

Wen Xijun was still silent but just those six children were more than enough for them to deal with. That young girl’s family and friends had also gathered. Everyone here were civilised people; they naturally wouldn’t start quarrelling and getting physical, but it was also most irritating when a civilised person speaks. Every word and every sentence of theirs carried thorns, pushing the blame onto Wen Xi.

After an unknown amount of time passed, perhaps about three minutes, very suddenly, a young girl’s voice sounded.

“…..Hah, do you really think you can be our friends? Are you worthy? You’re just a crayfish picked up by your father. Do you know what a crayfish is? They all grow in filthy water, eating garbage and dead bodies and their heads are filled with toxins and filth. Don’t you think that sounds just like you?”

Those few words were filled with disdain. Everyone fell silent and turned to look at the source of the sound. Wen Xijun expressionlessly pressed a button on his phone and raised his head, “Do you want to continue listening?”

That young girl could no longer speak. She looked at Wen Xijun with a ghostly pale face and didn’t know when he had recorded her words from just now.

Wen Xi was also stunned.

“Before coming to this reception, I was worried about the two young children in my family. They are only twelve and thirteen years old this year and children at that age are not capable of protecting themselves and can easily be bullied so I planted a listening and tracking device on them. I didn’t think I would actually need to use it.”

Chi Zhao didn’t look at the shocked expressions and just turned to smile courteously at Mr. Jiang.

“I won’t be staying around. My child has been wronged so I will need to coax her when we return. Mr. Jiang, thank you for your hospitality today.”

Mr. Jiang wanted to say something, but Chi Zhao had already stretched out a hand, signalling Wen Xi to hold it. Following that, he turned around and looked back at that young girl who was still standing there in shock from his sudden attack.

“You seem to be thirteen years old this year and will be turning fourteen next year. Fortunately, our country can charge someone up to three years after the incident for psychological injury and fourteen is an age when one can be sentenced. Young lady, you should spend more time with your parents. Later, they will only be able to visit you in prison.”

Looking at the mother and daughter, Wen Zhuang also added another line, “That’s not all. Feng shui is always changing, who knows whether her parents will be able to have the chance to visit her?”

Wen Lie chuckled, “Oh they will be able to. Leisurely people always have a lot of time.”

The repeated threats, regardless of whether they’re true or false, made the mother’s vision turn dark. She gripped her daughter’s shoulder with great strength but still wasn’t willing to lower her head down to apologise.

Leaving the Jiang residence and standing at a place where there were no outsiders around, Wen Xi finally couldn’t restrain her feelings and immediately threw herself into Chi Zhao’s arms.

Chi Zhao was startled. Just as he was about to pull the girl away, he felt Wen Xi’s small body trembling slightly. Chi Zhao could only smile helplessly and lightly pat her back.

Seeing this scene, the children standing around them all smiled unanimously. Wen Xi was the most introverted and cold-blooded among them all. To make her show so much emotion, it clearly showed how big of an effect todays incident had on her.

Thank goodness father had taken measures beforehand.

At this time, the ‘listening and tracking device’ in Chi Zhao’s mind wasn’t happy.

【I’m clearly the one who sent the recording to your phone. Why is no one hugging me?】

Haa, one who has no family has no power.
