Chapter 52: My bad dad is awesome! I stand up for him!

The tyrant’s face instantly turned green with anger.

Because Ah Bao was held on the tyrant’s neck, he sat high and could see far, so he saw a big ditch. That was not a big deal, the main thing was that the ditch was surrounded by ropes.

It should be to prevent others from falling in.

Then, there was a small wooden sign next to the rope.

This is my masterpiece.

Four big characters, extremely eye-catching.

[Daddy, the ditch looks new.]

[This ditch wouldn’t happen to be dug by the Third Prince, would it?]

The Tyrant’s mouth twitched fiercely.

Wasn’t this exactly the Third Prince’s handiwork?

Others might not recognize the Third Prince’s handwriting, but wouldn’t the father recognize it?

[Ha ha ha, maybe the Third Prince was afraid Daddy would find out he was lying, so he dug the ditch overnight.]

[But how could the Third Prince’s brain be so poorly designed, even digging a ditch reveals him.]

[He never expected Daddy would come out to inspect today, ha ha ha, what a coincidence.]

The Tyrant was fuming.

Originally in a good mood, the Tyrant was now completely enraged by the Third Prince’s stunt.

One day, this ungrateful son would drive him to his grave!

Look at this, how troublesome!

No ditch would have been fine, but he went ahead and dug one overnight, and even carved his own name into it.

Isn’t this just like “not wanting to leave traces but leaving them anyway”?

Seeing that the Tyrant was angry, Concubine De tried to change the subject. “Husband, I see this restaurant is quite busy. Shall we go in and have something to eat?”

The Tyrant agreed and, carrying Ah Bao, went into Tiansheng Residence.

Hmm.

His daughter was still so considerate.

Look, she’s currently hugging his neck, snuggling up to him.

Indeed, she’s his little warm jacket!

As soon as they entered, Ah Bao got excited.

[Daddy! Daddy! Look! It’s meat!]

The waiter was walking past with a plate of braised pork.

Ah Bao’s mouth watered uncontrollably.

It dripped onto the Tyrant’s hand.

The Tyrant: “…”

Concubine De: “…”

[Wah wah wah, I want to eat meat, meat, come to my arms~]

Ah Bao was so anxious she nearly cried.

“Wah——”

She opened her mouth and cried loudly, which made the Tyrant anxious. He quickly comforted her, “Ah Bao, be good, don’t cry. Daddy will get you some meat.”

“Husband, Ah Bao is only six months old. She can’t eat meat yet,” Concubine De quickly advised.

Ah Bao was really about to die from craving.

Since her birth, she had only had milk every day.

She really wanted to try some solid food.

Seeing the meat, she couldn’t help but drool.

[Mom! My dear mother, just let Ah Bao have a taste, woo woo, even just a lick will do!]

Ah Bao’s eyes were red; she wanted to eat meat!

Concubine De was helpless.

The Tyrant immediately ordered a portion of braised pork and placed it in front of Ah Bao. Ah Bao eagerly grabbed a piece with her little hands and tried to shove it into her mouth.

[So delicious!]

This startled Concubine De, who quickly removed the piece of meat from Ah Bao’s mouth.

Then she dipped some meat juice with chopsticks and let Ah Bao sip it.

Ah Bao: [……]

[The meat juice is also really good!]

Ah Bao happily sipped the meat juice, but loud noises from outside the door soon caught everyone’s attention.

“Where did this drunkard come from? Go away.”

“Does this drunkard really think he belongs in Tiansheng Residence?”

“Do you know this drunkard’s dirty hands touched my shoes? Clean them!”

The Tyrant’s brows furrowed tightly.

“In broad daylight, under the clear sky, there are actually such unruly and spoiled people in the capital!”

Concubine De picked up Ah Bao, worried that the commotion might frighten her.

“Husband, I think that drunkard is quite pitiful,” Concubine De said softly.

The drunkard was sitting at the entrance of the restaurant, seemingly untouched by anyone.

But a young man who walked by kicked over the drunkard’s wine jar, stepped on his hand, and claimed the drunkard had touched him.

Isn’t this just bullying?

[Tyrant, this is the capital under the Tyrant Emperor’s rule. With such unchecked violence, you bear some responsibility too.]

The Tyrant was slapped in the face. He had just said the capital was prosperous and peaceful.

At that moment, the Tyrant lost his appetite and headed towards the restaurant entrance.

“Master Xiao, you have a great capacity for tolerance. Why bother with a drunkard?” The waiter stepped forward, glancing at the drunkard. “Go away, you’re bringing bad luck here!”

Xiao Ziran coldly snorted, pushed the waiter aside, and continued to harass the drunkard. “Qin Yu, if you don’t clean my shoes, don’t think you can leave!”

The drunkard lazily glanced at Xiao Ziran.

That glance had an air of indifference and dignity.

Xiao Ziran kicked Qin Yu, “A stinky drunkard still dares to glare at me, do you think you’re still…”

Xiao Ziran abruptly stopped when he noticed Concubine De standing in the crowd.

Xiao Ziran’s eyes lit up. “Which family does this beautiful lady belong to? She’s truly stunning.”

Especially with her elegance.

Much better than the high-born ladies he had seen before!

Xiao Ziran’s lecherous gaze fell on Concubine De.

He strode towards her.

[Damn it! Tyrant, this guy is trying to flirt with your beautiful wife; beat him up!]

[What a bold guy, daring to lay eyes on the Tyrant’s woman!]

Concubine De found Xiao Ziran’s gaze extremely unpleasant and was about to back away with Ah Bao.

Just as Xiao Ziran’s hand was about to touch Concubine De—

“Dare to touch my people, and you’re asking for death!” The Tyrant’s eyes turned cold, his handsome face suddenly darkened like water. He grabbed Xiao Ziran’s hand and with a swift kick, sent him flying out of the restaurant.

Xiao Ziran tumbled down the steps and lay on the street.

[Oh yeah! Tyrant is awesome! Tyrant is amazing! I raise the flag for Tyrant! Raise the flag!!]

[Beat him up! How dare he set his sights on my beautiful mother!]

Xiao Ziran, still confused, looked up and saw the Tyrant’s face brewing with storm.

Xiao Ziran got up from the ground, pointing at the Tyrant and shouting, “You’re asking for it! Do you know who I am? I am—”

The Tyrant’s eyes darkened as he moved swiftly to Xiao Ziran’s side and, with a sharp twist, broke his wrist. “And who might you be?”

Xiao Ziran let out a piercing scream.

“Ah! It hurts! It hurts!”

“Speak!”

“I have connections in the capital! I’m telling you, if you mess with me, you’re finished!”

The Tyrant’s lips curled into a cold, sinister smile, his handsome face reflecting an unmatched cruelty. “Connections?”

Xiao Ziran thought the Tyrant was intimidated and continued to boast. “Yes! I have strong backing. You know the current Empress’s family, right? I’m a relative of the Empress’s family! I’m also the top scholar of this year’s imperial examinations! Do you know what that means?”
