After all, he was only a teenager and did not have much patience.

He was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot.

Xie Qiao could still hear the sound of him sniffling, but she remained indifferent and doing her own thing slowly.

Even the steward thought the young lady was ruthless.

Finally, after waiting for approximately two hours, Xie Pinggang returned.

He was wearing a fur cloak, which made him look even stronger. He was worn from his travels, and there was no expression on his face, but it was as if he was angry. It was scary to look at him.

After entering the courtyard, he was stunned when he saw the screen and the unfamiliar kid..

“Are you... a new servant?” Xie Pinggang frowned, “What can he do when he’s so small? Didn’t I tell you before? You have to choose someone who is tall and sturdy. I can kill him with one finger since he’s so tiny. What do you expect him to do? Protect me?”

The steward secretly jolted.

Zhou Kaiyun was so scared that his face stiffened.

T-This person was Xie Pinggang.

He was his e-enemy…

He gulped. It was as if there was a huge rock tied to his feet. He could not move, nor could he move the rock away. He just stood there like a fool.

“Young Master, this is not a servant. The young lady brought him home. He said... he wants to chop you to death,” the steward whispered.

“Chop me to death?” Xie Pinggang was amused when he heard that. He walked to Zhou Kaiyun in big strides. His body was almost bent to ninety degrees. One of his hands pressed on Zhou Kaiyun’s head, and the other pinched his chin, “You want to chop me to death? Fine, you have some guts. Tell me, what do I owe you? Do you have a case that I haven’t solved or a sinner that I sent to the execution ground?”

Zhou Kaiyun was speechless.

He did not speak, his whole body was trembling.

Xie Qiao put down her brush.

“His mother is the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, she’s not a direct descendant. However, she was also implicated in the Zhou family’s big crime. His father was sent to exile, and his mother, Ms. Qiu, hanged herself,” Xie Qiao saw that Zhou Kaiyun did not speak, so she spoke on his behalf.

When she said that, Xie Pinggang snorted and let go of this person, “Oh, so you’re from the Zhou family.”

“I promised him that he can attack you a few times later with our blade. If he chops you to death, I won’t pursue the matter,” Xie Qiao said.

Xie Pinggang did not care that Xie Qiao decided his life and death so simply.

“Those old thieves of the Zhou family hope that many of me die. If you can fulfill their wishes, and if the Zhou family can return to the capital in the future, they will definitely praise you immensely,” Xie Pinggang laughed sarcastically, “But little thief, my head is not something that you can take just because you want to. I’m just afraid that you won’t even be able to pick up my blade.”

Zhou Kaiyun seemed to be frozen at that moment.

He was still trembling, there was nothing else that he could do.

He had never been so afraid before.

I-It turned out that the son of Bandit Xie, that bad guy, looked like that.

H-He was like Yaksha of Asura, like a devil puppet of the King of Hell. The way he looked at him was so fierce that it seemed like he wanted to kill him.

‘Mom, I’m so scared…’

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Xie Pinggang was quite patient, “I must say, why can’t you just live your life since you survived? Why must you come here to seek death? If you can’t kill me later, do you know what will happen to you?”

“I-I…” Zhou Kaiyun was so scared that he was almost out of breath.

Xie Pinggang called the steward, “Alright, go get me my blade. You’re lucky. I just sharpened it. Hold it harder, don’t hesitate. Otherwise, there will be flesh stuck on it if you fail to sever me. It’s ugly if I have a piece of flesh dangling on me.”
