223 He Really Can’t Go to Madam Bai Anymore

For the first time, Little Cat felt the sharpness of Qingfeng.

He was very sensitive and asked nervously, “Sister Qingfeng, did I do something wrong? Did I make Madam Bai dislike me?”

Qingfeng glanced at him and asked, “Why does Madam Bai have to see you? Does she have to like you?”

Little Cat’s heart tightened as he realized more clearly that he was being disliked.

!!

He did not know why Qingfeng’s attitude had changed so much suddenly.

But if Bai Wutong didn’t help him, what would happen to his mother?

Even if he rushed home now, he would not be able to defeat the few evil women at home.

Little Cat clenched his fists. As long as he admitted his mistake and was obedient, Madam Bai would definitely forgive him.

He shouted into the courtyard, “Madam Bai, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have made you angry. Please don’t be angry with me, okay?”

“My mother was dragged away by them. Can you please help my mother?”

As long as Bai Wutong was willing to help, the old witches would definitely not dare to stay in their house and lord over them.

As soon as these words were spoken, Qingfeng’s face turned cold.

She grabbed Little Cat’s collar and raised him up. She questioned him like a sharp sword piercing through his heart. “What identity does Madam Bai have to interfere in your family matters? Who are you to Madam Bai? Why are you asking her to help for countless times?”

Little Cat’s face was deathly pale. He didn’t know if it was because he was held by the neck by Qingfeng or because he was feeling ashamed due to Qingfeng’s words.

He spoke with difficulty, tears trickling down his face. “I also don’t wish to, but no one is willing to help us.”

Qingfeng released him. Little Cat fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

He felt a little aggrieved. His request for help was clearly an insignificant matter to Bai Wutong.

But it was important to his family.

Qingfeng ignored his pitiful look and coldly tore his heart apart. “Madam Bai is not your mother and has no obligation to help you. Besides, she has already helped you, and you shouldn’t push your luck and force others.”

Little Cat’s heart skipped a beat. He opened his mouth with difficulty to defend himself, but the words were stuck in his throat.

Qingfeng’s words were too heavy for him.

He was just a child after all. He immediately started crying in despair.

“I didn’t want to, but, but my mother…”

Little Cat sat on the ground and sobbed, as if the world had abandoned him.

He was very sad and pained. In the gentle Madam Bai’s heart, he would be such an annoying person.

Suddenly, light footsteps approached.

Through the door rail, Bai Wutong handed him a handkerchief. “A man doesn’t shed tears easily. Wipe them.”

Little Cat looked up and realised that it was Bai Wutong. He cried and smiled at the same time. “Madam Bai…”

But seeing the alienation in her eyes, Little Cat’s heart twitched again. Tears flowed uncontrollably again. “Madam Bai, what did I do wrong? I can change. Don’t hate me. I won’t trouble you again.”

She wiped his snot and tears and stuffed the handkerchief into his hand. Then she unhurriedly took a piece of paper from her sleeve.

Little Cat’s eyes were misty with tears. He did not understand what she meant.

Pointing at the words on the paper, she asked, “Do you recognize this word?”

Little Cat shook his head.

He had only started studying for a month and could not read many words.

“This word is read as inferior.”

“Do you know why people are divided into superior and inferior?”

Little Cat said weakly, “Because some people are strong and some are weak.”

Bai Wutong explained, “The character under the word ‘inferior’ is strength and the character above is less. If you put in less effort than others, you will be at a disadvantage in your life. Your fate is in your own hands. Your efforts and hard work determine the quality of your life. I can’t help you forever. You need to work hard on your own to protect the people you want to protect.”

Little Cat looked at her, not understanding fully.

Bai Wutong folded the paper and placed it in his hand before leaving.

Tears streamed down Little Cat’s face as he choked and clenched the paper in his hand. He watched as the figure of Bai Wutong faded away.

He didn’t know what to do. He really didn’t.

Tears soaked the paper. On the paper, the character ‘strength’ melted away. Little Cat’s mind kept replaying what Bai Wutong had just said.

He needed to work hard to protect the people he wanted to protect…

In an instant, Little Cat understood what she meant.

He stood up abruptly and carefully pocketed the wet paper.

He would definitely work hard and not let Madam Bai down.

Little Cat perked up and ran towards Qinghe Academy again.

When Bai Wutong saw him from the third-floor windowsill, she sighed.

He was forced to mature at a young age. Destiny was more or less too cruel to Little Cat.

Little Cat entered the examination hall at the last moment.

The examination lasted only an hour. Little Cat focused on finishing the answers. After putting down the brush, he ran home.

Tao Yinzhen was tied up by Madam Chen. Ren Shuixing lay sickly on the recliner with a vicious and gloomy expression. “Beat her up! Beat her to death!”

Madam Chen slammed the stick down, and Tao Yinzhen’s flesh trembled.

...

“Ah—” A scream sounded in Ren Shuixing’s ears.

He said fiercely, “B*tch, how dare you abuse me! Let’s see if you still dare to do it. Grandmother, help me hit her again!”

Madam Chen was still eyeing the money in Tao Yinzhen’s hands and did not care about her at all.

“Ah—”

Tao Yinzhen screamed again.

Little Cat rushed out and pushed down the defenseless Madam Chen.

Madam Chen’s butt hurt from the fall. She pointed at Little Cat and scolded, “You little brat. Capture him and lock him in the pigpen. Don’t give him food for two days.”

The eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law pounced forward to catch Little Cat. Little Cat agilely dodged.

The older, the wiser. Madam Chen got up and grabbed Tao Yinzhen’s head. “Behave yourself. Otherwise, I’ll beat your mother 30 times!”

Tao Yinzhen was already on her last breath. Little Cat gritted his teeth and surrendered. In the next second, he was slapped by Madam Chen’s eldest daughter-in-law.

“This slap is to teach you a lesson on behalf of your father! Unfilial dog.”

...

Little Cat spat at her. “Bah!”

Madam Chen’s eldest daughter-in-law still wanted to slap Little Cat. Madam Chen glanced at Ren Shuixing. “Lock them in the pigpen first and let them learn their lesson.”

Little Cat was Ren Shuixing’s biological son after all. It would not be too late to deal with them slowly after she had obtained the silver hidden by Tao Yinzhen.

Tao Yinzhen and Little Cat were thrown into the pigpen. Little Cat untied Tao Yinzhen.

He leaned closer and heard the weak Tao Yinzhen say in a daze, “If only Master Chu could save us. He would definitely help us teach them a lesson…”

Little Cat stared at his mother, who had a blissful smile on her face. His young and sensitive heart was suddenly broken in half.

He seemed to understand something and covered his mouth in disbelief.

Tears flowed from his fingers and dripped onto the dirty pigpen floor, dripping a hole through his heart.

He really could never look for Madam Bai again.
