BXBX NOVEL Chapter 113 - So Angry
Chapter 113: So Angry
Xie Qiao did not plead for him!?
Why was his Eldest Sister like that?!
Before Xie Pinghuai could cry, he was taken outside.
Xie Pinggang was really angry. There was a small training field at the Xie Residence’s front courtyard. The father and son would usually spar there. There was a sturdy tree on which Xie Pinggang hung Xie Pinghuai directly.
“You don’t have to go to the academy for now. I’ll get the servant to apply for leave for you. Not long, a month will do!” Xie Pinggang’s voice was like an interrogation from hell.
Xie Pinghuai cried, “It really wasn’t me who lost it!”
‘Where did that piece of jade go!?’
“From now on, you’ll be hung here for eight hours per day. Your food will be made separately like how it was when you were punished back then. I’ll kill whoever allows you to slack and eat,” Xie Pinggang said while glancing through everyone in the courtyard.
What the hell? How would he dare to lose the piece of jade? How dare he pull such a trick before him!?
Xie Pinggang would make him regret his life!
Ms. Lu was terrified. Nobody knew what she was thinking now. Her face was pale, and her body trembled twice. She was wobbly now.
She hoped the truth was not what she imagined!
Xie Pinghuai was swinging on the tree.
After Xie Pinggang and Xie Niushan left the house, the rest dared not disobey Xie Pinggang’s order.
Xie Qiao and Xie Xi stood under the tree. They lifted their heads and watched Xie Pinghuai, who was midair, together. Nobody knew what Xie Qiao was thinking about, while Xie Xi looked serious. “Brother, you lost many taels of silver.”
“It wasn’t me who lost it!” Xie Pinghuai was so pissed that he was gnashing his teeth. He spat a mouthful of saliva. “Which greedy b*stard was it? If I catch them, I’ll definitely kill them!”
Xie Qiao chuckled when she heard that.
“Eldest Sister, I didn’t use the jade. Return me the IOU!” Xie Pinghuai complained.
He was just being hung now. What was that even?
When Xie Pinggang returned tonight, he would definitely be whipped. He would feel better if he got the IOU back.
“No can do, my dear brother,” Xie Qiao said gently.
Xie Pinghuai suddenly felt his eldest sister’s smile was cold and trembled. “Eldest Sister, were you the one who took it?”
“Why would I do that?” Xie Qiao glared at him softly. “It’s nothing good. Why would I want it for?”
Xie Pinghuai sighed. It made sense. His eldest sister did not look like a person who would harm him.
Could it be… his second sister?
Xie Pinghuai frowned, but he dared not say it. He did not have anyone in his courtyard. It was indeed easy for someone to steal something from him.
However, his second sister had a different identity. He could not reveal that even if it was really her. He was 12 now, so he was quite knowledgeable. If the news of his sister stealing the jade in the middle of the night spread, they would be humiliated.
Xie Pinghuai looked torn. He was very annoyed and angry.
No matter what, they would find out whether it was her when she returned home in the evening, right?
After all, the piece of jade was meant for one to become a disciple… It was useless for one to keep it!
Xie Qiao thought of Pei Wanyue when she saw Xie Pinghuai behaving like that. However, she would need proof of that. Before obtaining the proof, she was unwilling to suspect someone simply. After all, the crime was pretty big.
Xie Qiao went to the academy peacefully and asked around intentionally. She did not hear anyone getting themselves a master with a piece of white jade.
The white jade had a special meaning. If someone was to really hand out one, everyone in the entire academy would know.
Just like what was happening now, many people in the Orchid Courtyard thought Xie Qiao still had the piece of white jade. They were very interested in whom Xie Qiao would take as her master.
