Chapter 1243: Chapter 1239: Running Really Fast! (First Update)

"You damn girl, how dare you... How dare you splash pig slop water on me..."

Mrs. Lin was so furious at Mu Shuangshuang that her lips were trembling, and as she spoke, water kept dripping from her clothes onto the floor.

"Not only did I splash pig slop water, but I also splashed feces and urine! If you keep causing trouble in front of our Third Branch, I guarantee that what comes flying at you definitely won’t be pig slop water!"

Mu Shuangshuang put her hands on her hips and snarled fiercely at Mrs. Lin and Mu Dazhong.

That posture, that tone—she was like an unrelenting shrew!

Mrs. Lin had been roughhousing and causing trouble all her life, and she had never met a match, except for Old Mrs. Mu.

This time, she was bested by little Mu Shuangshuang, a mere girl, and naturally, Mrs. Lin was unconvinced!

She stomped her foot, flung herself onto the ground right in front of Mu Shuangshuang, and started wailing and rolling around.

"Help! The damn girl from Old Mu Family’s Third Branch is killing someone!"

"Help! They’re killing someone in broad daylight!"

The ground was dirty to begin with, plus that bucket of slop water, and in no time, Mrs. Lin turned into a mud person.

Dirty and smelly, but Mrs. Lin couldn’t care less—she only cared if she could get the money.

Mu Dazhong snapped out of it and joined in the shouting, "It’s terrible! Someone’s killing someone!"

The villagers, hearing the commotion, eagerly rushed over to see the spectacle, ready to seize the opportunity to criticize the Third Branch.

Then they saw Mu Shuangshuang take the cloth handed over by Lu Yuanfeng from behind.

With quick steps, Mu Shuangshuang grabbed Mrs. Lin unexpectedly, catching her off guard.

She stuffed the cloth forcefully right into Mrs. Lin’s mouth.

"Mmm..." Mrs. Lin screamed incoherently.

Mu Shuangshuang called out to the villagers, "Everyone, can someone help call Grandpa Zhang? My second aunt is having a seizure; she’s crazy and trying to hit someone!

Uncles and aunties, you should stand farther away, it’s safer. Just in case you get hurt, my second aunt won’t pay for it!"

The villagers looked at Mrs. Lin’s convulsing and howling and, indeed, she seemed like she was having a seizure.

Each person was afraid of getting implicated and hurriedly ran back home.

Even those wanting to watch the show stood far away, not daring to get close.

Mrs. Lin made quite a scene, but apart from becoming a filthy mud person, she gained nothing!

Mu Dazhong wanted to help Mrs. Lin but was intimidated by Lu Yuanfeng’s stare.

Left with no choice, he abandoned Mrs. Lin and fled dejectedly!

Seeing her husband abandon her, Mrs. Lin panicked and began begging Mu Shuangshuang for mercy.

Mumbling words that Mu Shuangshuang couldn’t understand.

When Mu Shuangshuang loosened her grip, Mrs. Lin scrambled away towards the Old Mu Family, scared that Mu Shuangshuang would continue to cause her trouble!

...

The two troublemakers gone, the entire Third Branch instantly quieted down.

The only problem was the pig slop water lying in the courtyard, that smell was truly unpleasant.

Mu Shuangshuang picked up a shovel and, along with Lu Yuanfeng, shoveled away the mud, finally making it better!

It’s just that all the things she wanted to say were disrupted by Mrs. Lin and Mu Dazhong’s ruckus, killing the mood.

Mu Shuangshuang had no choice but to prepare dinner.

It was still early, and Lu Yuanfeng decided not to practice his martial arts. It had been a long time since he hunted in the mountains; wild rabbits and chickens hadn’t been on the menu for a while!

He went home, grabbed his bow and arrows, and headed up the mountain.

Hoping he could catch something wild.

Just as he got his gear ready, he encountered Lu Xiao returning from outside.

Who knows where Lu Xiao had been—he was wearing a somewhat worn-out shirt with a few strands of grass in his hair.

He really looked like he’d crawled through someone’s haystack, but Lu Yuanfeng wouldn’t proactively talk to Lu Xiao; they usually just brushed past each other.

But this time, Lu Xiao shamelessly stopped Lu Yuanfeng.

"Fengzi, where are you going? Hunting? When will you be back?"

Lu Xiao clearly just wanted to make trouble; Lu Yuanfeng ignored him and walked straight towards Niuwei Mountain.

Lu Xiao was not pleased. Although his son wasn’t raised by him, he was still his blood.

Why ignore him?

"You rascal, your dad is talking to you, can you not hear?" Lu Xiao shouted from behind.

Lu Yuanfeng spun around and shot a chilling glare with his dark eyes.

Like a thousand miles of ice, Lu Xiao shivered coldly.

Yet he recklessly taunted Lu Yuanfeng, "What are you looking at, I’m your dad, that’s a fact you can’t change!

Your blood is mine, you’re my seed, without me, you wouldn’t exist! Don’t think you can dissociate from Old Lu Family and not take care of me!

In your dreams! If my life as Lu Xiao isn’t glorious, if I’m broke and powerless, I’ll leech off you and that damn girl!"

Lu Xiao prattled on.

Saying things without thinking.

Angry, Lu Yuanfeng stepped up and grabbed Lu Xiao’s throat.

"What are you doing..." Lu Xiao felt the pain from his throat.

With Lu Yuanfeng’s bloodshot eyes staring him down, Lu Xiao began begging for mercy.

"Fengzi, I’m... I’m your dad, I was wrong, I’ll stop, I won’t bother you and Shuangshuang, if I have to die, I’ll do it away from you, please let me go, let me go! I’m begging you!"

A moment ago he was boastful, but facing life and death, he was instantly cowardly!

Looking at Lu Xiao, Lu Yuanfeng thought he was just like those from the Old Mu Family.

At that moment, he suddenly understood why Shuangshuang always liked using force to drive them away.

Because nothing was more efficient!

If you act politely to these people, they’ll think you’re easy to bully, provoking you over and over!

No slack in his grip, Lu Yuanfeng squeezed Lu Xiao’s neck harder.

Lu Xiao’s face turned purple and blue, his breathing becoming increasingly difficult.

He couldn’t even see Lu Yuanfeng’s face clearly.

His eyes rolled back, tongue sticking out, leaving Lu Xiao with only one thought.

He was going to die—

He really was going to die—

Just as Lu Xiao was about to suffocate, Lu Yuanfeng released his hand.

Lu Xiao fell heavily to the ground, unable to get up for quite some time.

"This is just a warning. If you ever appear in front of me again, I guarantee I won’t let go next time!"

Lu Yuanfeng warned Lu Xiao coldly.

Lu Xiao viewed the man in front of him like a demon from hell; for the first time, Lu Xiao truly felt fear.

He nodded desperately, his gaze towards Lu Yuanfeng filled with terror!

"Fengzi, I... I won’t dare anymore, I won’t dare!"

Lu Xiao spoke as he retreated, accidentally tumbling into the gutter in front of Lu Yuanfeng’s home, getting a mouthful of mud.

He didn’t dare get up; he waited until Lu Yuanfeng was far away before crawling out of the gutter.

Nearly tripping with each hurried step, by the time Lu Xiao got home, he was already a mud-covered mess!
