Chapter Nine: The Wives of the Four Heavenly Kings

I do not have a smoking addiction, nor am I as impressive as Feng Tao. I have a good relationship with Feng Tao, so I shared with him the incident where I was kicked out by the teacher for borrowing Zhao Xia's book.

"Cut it out, such a timid person yet so bold, sooner or later you'll end up like your cousin." The sister-in-law's voice carried a hint of reproach

When did he leave? I heard that the little mosquito has gone, and I feel a bit lost inside.

The next day in class, Zhao Xia's book was lost again. When I arrived in the classroom, Zhao Xia was crying with her head down on the desk. Seeing her like that made me feel both amused and helpless; I really can't stand to see girls cry. So, I patted Zhao Xia on the shoulder and said, "Don't cry anymore, I will give you all my books."

In fact, the place where she works is not far. If you miss her, you can go see her. " After saying this, my sister-in-law asked me again, "Do you really not like her?"

"Get lost." After becoming familiar with Feng Tao, I find him quite frivolous

Zhao Xia glanced at me and then started crying again. I sighed and truly handed my book to her. Zhao Xia did not accept it. Watching her shoulders heave, I sensed that something was amiss. The valve core had been pulled out, and textbooks were being discarded one by one; it was evident that someone had targeted her. But who was the person stealing her belongings

Ah? I, I didn't mean to. I was already feeling nervous when I saw my sister-in-law, and when she started to tease me, I became even more flustered and at a loss.

I broke up with Xiao Huangmao. After a long silence, my sister-in-law finally spoke.

I see that the cover of your book is a bit damaged said Zhao Xia to me

During the day when classes are in session, I always find myself unintentionally glancing towards the school bike shed. By the afternoon, I indeed saw a few girls sneaking around causing a commotion by the bike shed. The bicycle belongs to Zhao Xia, and since she cannot keep an eye on it alone, her boyfriend has to take care of Zhao Xia's bicycle. However, this time, it seems that it won't be as simple as just removing the valve core.

"Between a partner and a good friend, I prefer a good friend," said the younger sister-in-law, giving me a mischievous wink before standing up. "It's getting dark, I should head home. Your cousin asked me to take good care of you, and I will definitely look after you well. If anyone bullies you at school in the future, just let me know. Even without the little yellow-haired one, I can still protect you"

"Ah, you really are something, acting like Lei Feng without leaving a name." Feng Tao shot me a glance. Then, we looked at each other for a few seconds before bursting into laughter. Feng Tao asked me, "Shall we have a smoke together?"

"Well, I don't like her." I nodded. Yet in my heart, I spoke, "I like you"

Zhang Mingming, you really have some nerve, daring to stab someone with a knife, don't you?" My sister-in-law pinched my ear, looking at me with a playful expression

It is necessary to introduce the eldest brother's wife, who is named Dai Ji. The entanglement of grievances and affections between Dai Ji and me also began with this matter

As soon as I entered the room, I was greeted by a waft of fragrance, and a pair of delicate fingers pinched my ear.

The five of them saw someone and all dared not make a move. A few girls had a defiant look on their faces, and the most attractive one shot me a glare. She was the wife of the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, and she held the highest status in the school. I looked at that girl with a cold smile, and as they walked past me, I called out to them. "Bring back the two books that Zhao Xia threw away."

When I returned home in the evening, my grandmother told me that Qian Baobao had come. Qian Baobao is a frequent visitor at my grandmother's house, and my grandmother does not treat her as an outsider. Upon hearing that Qian Baobao had arrived, my heart skipped a beat; ever since I had poked at Xiao Huangmao, I had not seen Qian Baobao. I miss her quite a bit, but I do not dare to seek her out. Because I poked at her partner, I do not know how to face her

"You left yesterday, and they like you so much. You didn't even say goodbye to them," my sister-in-law said, giving me a glare with her big eyes.

"You broke up?" I looked at my sister-in-law in surprise and joy.

While smoking, Feng Tao kept laughing in a peculiar manner. I asked him why he was laughing, but he remained silent. I became anxious and tried to snatch his cigarette. Only then did Feng Tao say to me, "I am increasingly suspicious that you like Zhao Xia. You lend her books and stand outside by yourself; you are truly something else."

The perpetrators are five girls, two of whom are quite pretty, while three are unattractive. One of the unattractive ones is from our class. Upon seeing that unattractive girl, I understood the situation better; she is likely the inside informant who stole Zhao Xia's book

The little mosquito has left, gone to work. Suddenly, the little sister-in-law changed the subject, her eyes reflecting a hint of subtle disappointment

"Are you also coming out to smoke?" Feng Tao asked me

Hehe. Feng Tao chuckled softly and said nothing.

Oh? Why are you standing in the corridor, hetushucomcom? I was looking out the window when someone behind me started talking to me

I was just thinking that Zhao Xia has lost her book twice, so she will definitely hold onto it tightly next time. As for the fourth one’s partner, how will they deal with Zhao Xia next?

My sister-in-law's family is wealthy and she knows many friends. She said she can protect me, and she really can. However, I don't need it; I don't want a girl to protect me. I feel quite reluctant to see my sister-in-law go, but I still said I would send her off.

When I arrived at the bike shed, I heard a hissing sound; the valve core of Zhao Xia's bicycle had already been removed

Hmph. The younger sister-in-law gracefully turned and sat back on the kang. She was wearing a beautiful floral dress, and her small feet dangled and swayed beneath the kang. She was wearing slippers, and as I looked at her snow-white feet, I felt a stirring in my heart

In the past, when my cousin was around, he would bring us along to have fun, and there was always laughter among the three of us. But now that my cousin is no longer here, the topics of conversation with my sister-in-law have become rather limited. Occasionally, I glance at my sister-in-law, admiring her delicate features. She has always regarded me as a child, and she does not seem to mind. She is tall and carries an air of elegance. She enjoys having fun, but unfortunately, I cannot engage with her in that way.

"How did you come out as well?" I saw Feng Tao, and there was a hint of joy on his face. I never expected that Feng Tao was also sent out by the teacher.

Zhao Xia has a good relationship with the Four Heavenly Kings, and ordinary people generally do not dare to retaliate against her repeatedly. Those who often walk by the river are bound to get their shoes wet. The person who stole her belongings and harmed her is not afraid of Zhao Xia finding out. Therefore, I suspect that the person behind the scenes plotting against Zhao Xia has a special connection with her. Moreover, the actions of that person are rather childish, suggesting that they are likely a girl. If it were a boy, he would probably take Zhao Xia to a secluded place, just like I would.

Hmm. I smiled, feeling quite happy inside. I thought that after I made a move, the little blonde sister-in-law would ignore me, but unexpectedly, she still has feelings for me.

It is essential! I currently have a smoking addiction of two packs a day, which I estimate was developed during that time of confinement.

I am not small at all. In my heart, I have a little sister-in-law, so how could I admit to being small in front of her

Suddenly, a thought struck me. I asked Zhao Xia, "Does Lao Si have a partner?"

After a class, I returned to the classroom. As soon as I sat down, Zhao Xia started talking to me. "Thank you."

On the way back, I felt that familiar sensation again. I always wanted to hold my sister-in-law's hand, but I didn't dare to. After I escorted her home, she told me to call her if I needed anything. I nodded and said yes; at that time, many adults still did not have mobile phones.

"Come and take a look at you." The younger sister-in-law smiled at me with a gentle expression

A day has passed, and my conversations with Zhao Xia have gradually increased. Whenever I talk to Zhao Xia, I always feel like someone is watching me. I turned my head twice, and it was Lao Si. Lao Si often jokes around with Zhao Xia; he must like her. I didn't take it seriously because I am not afraid of Lao Si causing me trouble. I even dare to poke at the little yellow-haired guy, so why would I be afraid of Lao Si?

Forget it, if it comes out, then so be it. It's just that I don't really like attending classes anyway I truly do not want to explain this to the teacher

Ah, I don't know. If I knew, I would have given it to her. I exclaimed to the librarian.

"It's so boring in class, I need to step out for a smoke." Feng Tao said with a pout.

Well. I didn't say anything, but I still feel quite comfortable inside. If Zhao Xia weren't so unpleasant, we could probably be good friends.

Zhao Xia did not understand the meaning of my words and continued to cry. Seeing her cry made me feel annoyed, so I asked her again and gave her a little push. Zhao Xia, slightly irritated by my push, nodded and said "uh-huh," then continued to cry. When I heard her say "yes," I understood what was going on.

"How did you know?" Dai Jiting asked me, holding her head high and maintaining her composure.

"Ah, if you don't like her, then just let it be; after all, you two are not suited for each other." After the younger sister-in-law finished speaking, the room fell silent.

"Little sister-in-law, what brings you here?" I am accustomed to calling Qian Baobao little sister-in-law

Thinking of this, I smiled, for I had already figured it out

"Dizzy, why didn't you tell the teacher? You could have just said the book was borrowed by Zhao Xia." Feng Tao stood up for me

"It's nothing." I smiled faintly. My book was covered with a beautiful dust jacket

After I returned home, I thought for a while about my sister-in-law. The room still held her fragrance, and her graceful figure, with her red nail polish, swaying her delicate white feet, lingered in my mind. After a long time, I sighed. Even though she had broken up with my cousin, I should not always think of her. Unfortunately, I am still weak, unable to resist thinking of her.

After hearing my words, all five girls turned around, their faces filled with surprise and confusion. They must be wondering how I knew.

I am at a loss for words
