The System for Mentoring Villain Bosses-Chapter 77: Breaking Free (1)
Chapter 77: Breaking Free (1)
Inside the apartment, Xi Yun climbed onto the window sill and looked out, his big eyes full of longing.
A small car was parked on the road. He watched as Su Tian and Auntie He got in the car one after the other. He saw the eccentric toy store girl and the annoying ghost who ate sixty dollars get in too.
They were talking and laughing. They were going to such a far place, and for so long too. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
Leaving just him, alone, here by himself…
His eyes reddened. Xi Yun quickly reached out to wipe away his tears, climbed down, turned, and limped into the kitchen. Because he left so quickly, he missed seeing Su Tian get off the car and run up the stairs.
He still needed to cook breakfast. If he didn’t, Xi Zhiqiang would lose his temper again.
In the living room, Xi Zhiqiang lay shirtless on the couch, watching TV under the fan. When Xi Yun walked in, he flicked his eyes over and stared at him. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
When Xi Yun noticed him watching, his heart immediately felt nervous. He quickly went into the kitchen, got onto a stool, and started boiling water for the meal.
His butt hurt and his legs also hurt a lot, but he didn’t dare to make a sound.
That day when he got back from the amusement park, Xi Zhiqiang wasn’t home. Xi Yun happily went to bed. He was sleeping soundly when Xi Zhiqiang dragged him out of bed. Without saying a word, Xi Zhiqiang began a round of beating.
He didn’t dare to shout, he dared even less to cry. In the past, Xi Zhiqiang would beat him harder when he cried.
He could only cover his face. If his face wasn’t injured, Jie Jie wouldn’t know that he’d be beat.
He was afraid that Jie Jie would be sad if she found out.
Tired, Xi Zhiqiang finally stopped beating him and asked him where he put his money.
Xi Yun remembered what Su Tian had said and he didn’t dare to resist. He pointed at the stool beside him. It had a steel pipe for one of its legs, which he had been using for storage. He told him that all the money he had was there.
Xi Zhiqiang told him to take it out himself. Xi Yun went over, took off the black rubber pad on foot of the stool, and took out more than a hundred dollars from inside.
Xi Zhiqiang snatched it away from him and began beating him again, saying that he had asked for it by stealing money and that he better not be lying about that being all his money.
Xi Yun still didn’t dare to shout, still didn’t dare to cry. He just kept saying that that really was all his money.
Xi Zhiqiang turned over the stool again and again. When he couldn’t find even a single dime, he finally believed Xi Yun. He kicked him again and scolded him one more time: “You had money and you dared to give it to that little bitch outside and not your father, beating you just once isn’t enough…”
Done, he hurried out the door.
Xi Yun was unprepared for the hit, so his head knocked on the cupboard, immediately bruising.
Afraid of Su Tian finding out, he avoided going to see her for several days, all the way until Su Tian came to ask him to go to the capital with her.
Xi Yun really, really wanted to go. His textbooks had several lessons about the capital and also had a lot of beautiful pictures. He wanted to go, but he didn’t dare to go.
Xi Zhiqiang had said, if he saw him and Su Tian together, he would break his leg, lest Xi Yun give any little money he had to other people.
Xi Yun was really scared this time. When Xi Zhiqiang said this, his eyes were particularly frightening, he wasn’t just saying harsh things to scare him, he was serious.
But, he also didn’t want to alienate Su Tian. He wanted to find an opportunity to secretly tell Su Tian, so they could secretly be together.
