Chapter 26 Ouyang Xun’s Warning

6 min read1,586 words

On Saturday, there’s a small English test in the morning self-study session. At that time, a weekend is not a double day off but it is only a single day off. Only one day off in a week.

For Mei Xiaoran, she really was not afraid of the test in other subjects, but English, her two lifetimes as a human was really lived in vain……She even suspected that she has a grudge with English. Why can’t she remember it?

After the test, Mei Xiaoran feels that her whole body is unwell. Even when the school is over, she is still listless. When she walks out of the school gate in a dilly-dallying manner, Qi Yao happens to see her.

During this period of time, she just happened to not meet Mei Xiaoran, but Qi Yao did not give up in picking up a quarrel.

“Mei Xiaoran, are you are blind? You have bumped someone.”

Mei Xiaoran glanced at her, “I’m not blind. I didn’t bumped anyone.”

Qi Yao was angry, “How could you didn’t bumped anyone? You bumped me? “

“Oh, so this is what you mean. Then, I really didn’t bump someone, because you’re not a human anyway.”

At that age, students liked to play word games and turned swearing into tongue twisters. Mei Xiaoran felt that she was very naive. After all, she was already a 40 years old adult but still played this trick on Qi Yao. But on second thought, if she doesn’t use this trick, could it be that she has to use an adult’s trick? That’s not in line with her current status.

“Mei Xiaoran, be respectful in your words.” Qi Yao is so angry. Mei Xiaoran is only a first year student in junior high school and her family’s conditions are just like that. They can only move the household registration to the city because of her father’s help. What qualifications does she have to boast in front of her?

“Qi Yao, do you have to unyieldingly hang on it? You learn your studies, I learn my studies. Just go our own way, okay?”

When Mei Xiaoran walked past her side, Qi Yao caught her. Qi Yao is two years older than her, half a head taller than her and also stronger than her.

“Mei Xiaoran, let’s go out and talk.”

Qi Yao is not stupid. She is not willing to teach Mei Xiaoran a lesson on the school ground and get infamous for fighting.

Mei Xiaoran was caught by her like this and was abruptly pulled out of the school gate.

The road outside the school gate is not wide. Residents live on both sides of the school. Anguo road is 20 meters east of the school gate, while it takes about one to two hundred meters to the west to reach Xingfu road……This road is then splits into two, one leads directly to Xingfu road to the west, and the other, 50 meters away from the school gate, it extends southwest. Just where the two roads split, there are several big trees and a house with a half collapsed courtyard wall. This formed a natural barrier and became a good place for students to solve their personal gratitudes or grievances.

Qi Yao planned to drag Mei Xiaoran to this place, and just beat her first before saying anything else. If it wasn’t for Mei Xiaoran’s loose tongue last time, who could have known that it was her who pushed Ouyang Ling? However, it also can’t be blamed on her. Who let Ouyang Ling look so beautiful and so radiant. It would be better if she was the only girl in this big family. Why must there be an Ouyang Ling who outdo her?

“Qi Yao, let me go!”

Mei Xiaoran struggled a few times and wasn’t able to escape from Qi Yao’s hand. But she couldn’t just suffer the beating like this, right?

Qi Yao will never let her go and even hold her tighter. The two of them were pulling and pushing each other like this, and twisted into one.

“What are you guys doing?”

It was Ouyang Xun who spoke. Today’s morning self-study that ended a couple minutes later than usual, unexpectedly made him come across this scene.

“Older Cousin……Why haven’t you gone home yet?”

Qi Yao was greatly surprised. She thought that Ouyang Xun had already left.

“You don’t have to care about that. I just want to ask you, why don’t you go home after school? What are you pulling Mei Xiaoran for?”

Ouyang Xun was angry when he saw it. This younger cousin of his was so small-minded. Last time Qi Yao almost pushed Lingling into the waste pond. If not for Mei Xiaoran’s timely rescue, he would have lost his little sister……Everything was because of Qi Yao. If it was not for her, then this matter would not have happened. But Qi Yao didn’t honestly admit her mistake. She was also not friendly towards Mei Xiaoran, and sometimes still wanted to deal with Mei Xiaoran.

This is what makes him couldn’t stand it anymore.

He went forward to forcefully separate Qi Yao and Mei Xiaoran, “Ranran, you should hurry home to eat.”

Mei Xiaoran then, without looking back, went along the southwest path to go home.

After that, Ouyang Xun turned his head back and his complexion changed. He became stern and indifferent. “Qi Yao, actually, what do you want to do? Did Mei Xiaoran really offended you? Or do you feel unhappy that you didn’t succeed in harming Lingling?”

Qi Yao was startled and even her voice changed. “No, I didn’t think like that.”

“You don’t think like that but why do you always find trouble with Mei Xiaoran?”

This time, Ouyang Xun was really angry. He thought that the matter had been resolved a long time ago. Unexpectedly, Qi Yao had been holding on to it. When she found the opportunity, she would always try to make things difficult for Mei Xiaoran. Is that even reasonable?

Qi Yao blushed, “I……I just feel that I don’t have any face anymore. “

“Then, Mei Xiaoran was also hurt by you and your mother, and she even got beaten at home. According to your logic, does she also have to find trouble with you all the time, so that she can save her face?”

When Qi Yao heard this, she couldn’t help but shout, “She dares!? Afraid that she doesn’t even have the courage to do so!”

“Qi Yao, don’t you just rely on your father being the team leader, that Mei Xiaoran was able to move into the city because of your father’s help? The Mei family owes your dad a gratitude, but not to you. I hope you can be clear about this and do not trouble her any more. “

Qi Yao was unconvinced and shook her head. “In any case, it is their family who owes our family. Even if I hit her a few times, she still has to bear with it.”

Once Ouyang Xun heard this, he suddenly stretched out a hand to slap her and said, “Do you think what you are saying is humane? Qi Yao, don’t think that because we are relatives, I dare not hit you! I’ve tolerated you for a long time. Since I heard that it was you who pushed Lingling down the dam, I had already wanted to hit you.”

Qi Yao was stunned by this one slap of his. After a long time, she responded, “You hit me? You actually hit me? You dare to hit me? “

“Just now, didn’t you say that the Mei family owed your family? Then I ask you, how much does your family owe my family?”

Ouyang Xun’s expression was so cold that Qi Yao did not dare to look at him. She covered her face, awkwardly lowered her head and her lips murmured in a low voice, “That’s not a horse of the same color. What’s the relationship between me and you? We are real cousins. Can it be compared with her? In both of our families, it seems that no one owes the other?”

“Is that really so?”

Ouyang Xun sneered.

Liu Fang is his Little Grandfather’s daughter. His Little Grandfather died early, Liu Fang’s mother took her(LF) and remarried into Liu family. But everyone knows that Liu Fang is actually the descendant of the Ouyang family. Liu Fang has been in touch with Ouyang Xun’s family all these years, and has been paying visits very frequently. Ouyang Xun’s grandfather was an old revolutionary and had narrowly escaped every combat. He also educated his children and grandchildren well and they were arranged to work in many powerful departments. Qi Guomin also relied on Ouyang family’s connections to become the team leader. Otherwise, no matter how many Qi family’s members are, he would not become the leader of the vegetable team.

“Then, if it was according to your opinion, doesn’t your family owe my family from head to toe?”

Ouyang Xun didn’t intend to let Qi Yao off and straightforwardly make it clear at once. “These years, has my grandfather and my dad been bad to you all? Were there any good things at home that we didn’t give to you all? Even the clothes that you wear, my mother makes two sets at a time, one for Lingling and the other for you. But you are still so dissatisfied? You still wanted to kill Lingling? Why are you so malicious?”
