Chapter 539
Xie Changan couldnât bear to listen to such nonsense. He merely jumped down from the branch with a whoosh and leaped onto the eaves of the wall in just a few jumps. Then, he turned around and slid down along the trunk of the tree.
His movements were so fierce and thrilling that the palace staff below were unbelievably frightened, leading to a cacophony of screams After Xie Changan jumped to the ground, he rushed out without even waiting to regain his footing, âMother.â
Mu Mingtang followed the palace servantâs lead angrily in order to settle a score with Xie Changan. From afar she could already see a bunch of servants surrounding the base of a tree. As expected, it was none other than Xie Changan who jumped from the top and raced towards her as if he was a cannonball.
This little brat!
Mu Mingtang saw with her own eyes that there was actually quite a bit of vertical distance between where he jumped and the ground. Although he seemed fine afterwards, it didnât stop her from being frightened. On the other hand, Xie Changan knew enough to control his strength as he approached his mother. Even so, Mu Mingtang took two steps back to steady herself when he hugged her.
Xie Changan embraced Mu Mingtangâs legs, raised his face and said coquettishly, âMother, youâre back.â
Xie Changan was not afraid of anything in his way. In fact, he was the nightmare of the palace servants, but his one sole fear was of Xie Xuanchen. Merely mentioning his fatherâs name would turn the little demon into an obedient boy.
Mu Mingtang couldnât stand Xie Xuanchenâs way of educating others, so it was natural that her son wouldnât like it either. In the end, Mu Mingang was the first one who yielded, âAlright, get up.â
REalising that there was hope for himself, Xie Changan stood up straight immediately.
Mu Mingtang asked with a cold glare, âDo you know where you went wrong?â
âI know now that Iâm no longer allowed to climb trees.â
Mu Mingtang had accumulated a rich experience of finding loopholes in her endless banters with Xie Xuanchen throughout the years. The moment she heard her sonâs reply, she added, âNot only are you not allowed to climb trees and walls, youâre not allowed to go to any high locations.â
