Rejected by three little devils, Wang Cai’s face looked awful as he pointed at Zhenzhen and cursed, "Is it just because your family has so stinky money? How dare you look down on ? What’s so great about you?"
"My family does have so stinky money, a pity your family doesn’t even have that much. So what’s so great about you that I should respect?" Zhenzhen, who had been studying for two years, had beco much calr. Hearing Wang Cai’s words, her expression didn’t change as she jabbed right at Wang Cai’s sore spot.
"What did you say? Say that again to my face!" Humiliated by being disrespected so openly, Wang Cai flew into a rage and raised his fist towards Zhenzhen.
Seeing this, Yun Zhao quickly stepped in front of Zhenzhen and said with a cold face, "Wang Cai, if you dare to let your fist fall, I guarantee your family will no longer be able to stay in Liu Yang Village."
Upon hearing this, Wang Cai’s face instantly changed, then he cursed, "You bastard with an unknown father, what right do you have to threaten ? If you dare to talk to like that again, I’ll beat you up too!"
The other children playing around quickly noticed the commotion. A slightly older child saw Wang Cai’s ferocious face as he raised his fist and hurried over to stop him, "Wang Cai, what are you trying to do? Do you want to hit soone?"
"Hmph, mind your own business and get lost!" Wang Cai pushed the child who tried to stop him with a fierce shove and even kicked him harshly.
In fact, what Wang Cai really wanted was to give Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao a good thrashing and settle years of new grudges and old grievances. However, he knew the Mo Family definitely had the power to kick his family out of Liu Yang Village and possibly even land them in jail, so he didn’t dare to actually hit Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao. Instead, he vented his anger on another innocent party.
"Wang Cai, stop it!" Seeing Wang Cai was about to kick for a second ti, Zhenzhen pushed Yun Zhao aside and quickly rushed forward to stop him, "If you dare touch him again, don’t bla for being rude."
Wang Cai withdrew his foot and looked down on Zhenzhen, who was two heads shorter than him, with disdain, "Be rude to ? I’d like to see just how you’re going to do that!"
Zhenzhen, however, paid no attention to Wang Cai and went over to help up the child who had been kicked to the ground, not letting her guard down until she saw he was not seriously hurt.
Ignored, Wang Cai felt extrely unsatisfied inside, but he dared not provoke Zhenzhen or the Mo Family, fearing retribution in the autumn. He shouted loudly to the children who had gathered around, "You all be the judge. I thought they were bored here, so I kindly offered to take them sowhere fun. But they’re ungrateful and even said offensive things. Tell , if it were you, wouldn’t you be angry too?"
The children at the scene were mostly around ten years old, with the youngest being only five or six. They didn’t have the ability to discern right from wrong clearly. Hearing Wang Cai’s words, they subconsciously looked at Zhenzhen and the others, their eyes filled with doubt.
Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao felt extre disdain for Wang Cai, who was trying to play the victim. The brothers exchanged a glance, about to defend themselves, when Danzi, who had witnessed the whole process, bravely stood up and pointed at Wang Cai, saying to his pals, "Don’t be fooled by him. He was the one who started threatening Zhenzhen, and she only fought back. He’s playing the villain suing first."
As soon as these words dropped, the children all glared at Wang Cai. Compared to Wang Cai, who had a "record", they obviously preferred to believe the words of the playmate they often played with.
"Ah? So that’s what happened. I almost got tricked by Wang Cai."
"Wang Cai is so bad, just like his mother, not a good person."
"We’d better keep our distance from him in the future. My mom won’t let play with his brothers; she’s worried they’ll lead astray."
"Yeah, my mom says the sa."
"..."
The children chattered among themselves, their dislike for Wang Cai rising to a new level, obliviously speaking out their genuine thoughts without realizing the impact these words might have on Wang Cai.
Clenching his fists tightly under his worn-out cotton-padded jacket, Wang Cai’s hateful gaze swept over the children discussing him, sending an involuntary shiver down their spines.
Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao watched Wang Cai warily. Just when they thought Wang Cai was about to start hitting people, he suddenly laughed and pointed to the Xiaoqing River nearby, "The ice there is bigger and thicker. Running on it must be even more fun and thrilling. Don’t you want to go check it out?"
No one expected Wang Cai’s quick change of attitude. Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao intuitively felt sothing was off and spoke in unison, "Can’t go there, it’s dangerous!"
