Chapter 569 - Beating Up the Spoiled Brat (1)
Shen Yanxiao quirked her eyebrows.
“But I think he will hurry back soon once he learns that you have won. Don’t worry,” Yang Xi added.
They heard a knock on the door as soon as Yang Xi mentioned that.
Yan Yu stood up and opened the door. Tang Nazhi was there with another young man who looked like him. However, the young man was not like Tang Nazhi; he appeared quite quiet.
“Xiaoxiao, congratulations!” Tang Nazhi laughed as he dragged the man into the room.
“Who is he?” Yan Yu asked in confusion.
Did Tang Nazhi not chase after Li Xiaowei? How did he end up with some strange young man?
Tang Nazhi smiled and said, “He is my big brother, Li Xiaowei!”
“I am not your big brother! Stop with this nonsense!” Li Xiaowei frowned. However, he did not resist when Tang Nazhi dragged him forward.
“Well, you’ve come with me, haven’t you? Stop with the pretense.” Tang Nazhi did mind Li Xiaowei’s attitude.
“He was in disguise?” Shen Yanxiao pointed out the strangeness with acute perception.
“Yes!” Tang Nazhi nodded and then dragged Li Xiaowei to a spot in the room to sit down.
“This is Qi Xia, Shen Yanxiao, Yang Xi, and Yan Yu. They are my best friends. He is Xiaoxiao’s teacher. That little guy is Vermilion Bird and that…” Tang Nazhi did not know how to introduce Lan Fengli.
“I am my sister’s brother!” Lan Fengli exclaimed.
“A guy with the surname Lan is a brother to a girl with the surname Shen?” For a moment, Tang Nazhi did not understand it. He thought Lan Fengli had a story that was similar to Li Xiaowei.
Suddenly, Tang Nazhi remembered a couple of spoiled brats.
Lan Fengli had delicate facial features. He seemed to be the same age as Shen Yanxiao. While he was not very likable, he did not appear to be annoying, either.
Tang Nazhi scratched his head. “Xiaoxiao, don’t you have any cousins who are as likable as Brother Siyu? Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei are too obnoxious. If it were not for your sake, we would not have accommodated them for this long.”
Shen Yanxiao was surprised to hear that. What did he mean ‘for her sake’?
“Wait, wait! What do you mean for my sake?”
Tang Nazhi explained. “Those two kids have been badgering us, and we’ve been so annoyed about it. We only accommodated them because they are your family members.”
Shen Yanxiao curled her lips. She did wonder why Tang Nazhi would be with Shen Jiayi. She finally figured it out.
Her four friends thought that her relationships with those two brats were the same as her and Shen Siyu. They treated Shen Jiayi with respect because they did not know that Shen Yanxiao did not have good ties with those two siblings. They were like oil and water; they’d never be compatible.
“I must thank you then. Thank you for taking such good care of the two insane kids that took fun in bullying me all day long.” Shen Yanxiao glared at the four beasts with a mirthless grin.
The four of them were surprised to hear that.
“Did you say they bullied you? With their plain abilities?” Tang Nazhi did not believe her. Shen Jiayi had only reached the sixth rank, and Shen Jiawei had not even managed—did they have the skills to bully Shen Yanxiao?
Was that a joke?
Had anyone seen two tabby cats as they tried to bully a Bengal tiger?
“That was in the past.” Shen Yanxiao did not like to talk about the old days, but she did hate those two brats.
The four beasts realized that they had misread the signs when they saw that she was upset.
They were embarrassed because they had severely misjudged that person.
