Chapter 117 - Hungry Bully (2/2)

{...I'm really in trouble now...}

He put on a smile and wanted to offer his help again, when someone suddenly shouted, ”How dare you bully my meimei?!”

An Hao froze and nervously turned only for him to see Tung Mei racing towards them. He frowned.

{...Her again? -_-)...}

Tung Mei quickly arrived and helped Xiao Ting up, hugged her and patted her head to comfort her while glaring at An Hao, who narrowed his eyes at her and asked, ”Why are you here?”

Tung Mei scoffed, ”This is my house. The question should be why are you here?”

An Hao scoffed and mumbled, ”You're not even married yet and you're already claiming the house and sister.”

”What's it to you?” Tung Mei haughtily responded, then she narrowed her eyes, ”Don't tell me you're here because of Xing jie?”

An Hao blinked and Xiao Ting raised her head, ”What about jiejie?”

Tung Mei pat her head, ”Nothing for you to worry about.”

”I'm here to visit Lei Yong. Unlike some people, I came on an invite.” An Hao haughtily responded. He did not like this girl. He had heard of Tung Mei chasing Lei Yong around, even ingratiating herself with his family despite his objections to her affection.

Tung Mei snorted and rolled her eyes, ”Yong ge is not here so you should leave. Either way, I doubt he would be happy to see this.” She said her eyes motioning to Xiao Ting's head on her shoulder.

An Hao knit his brows, ”It was an accident! She wasn't looking where she was go-” He stopped when he saw Xiao Ting glaring at him with teary eyes. An Hao looked away feeling like a bully.

”Ah, Lao Wang! Have this hooligan tossed out of here.” Tung Mei hollered. An Hao's face lit up and he turned to see Lao Wang coming along with some servants. He had just been informed of An Hao's arrival and that he went to find him. Knowing An Hao's tendency to get sidetracked, he took it upon himself to go find him.

Lao Wang arrived at their side and bowed, ”Miss Tung, what is the issue?”

”This hooligan here harrassed our Xiao Ting so he is no longer welcome here.” Tung Mei stated.

Lao Wang narrowed his eyes at An Hao, who looked to the sky. Lao Wang lightly sighed, ”Miss Tung, he is also the young master's esteemed guest so perhaps we ca-”

”It's fine. Lei Yong is not here anyway so I'll come another day, lead the way.” He finished, then he turned around and strutted off and Lao Wang quickly went to catch up to him.

Tung Mei watched the two of them walking off then sighed, ”Some people just don't know what's good for them.”

She then removed Xiao Ting from her shoulder and frowned at her crying face, ”Why were you just sitting there crying? Huh? You should have stood up and fought him. Is it because he's a general? So what? Even if you can't beat him, you can bite him, poke his eyes out! There are lots of things you can do, how dare he come here and bully you like that?!”

Xiao Ting glanced up at her and timidly said, ”It was an accident...mostly.”

”Even if it's an accident does that mean you should stay there looking stupid?! I've told you many times that your crying is a problem, be better!” Tung Mei admonished.

Xiao Ting lowered her head and mumbled, ”I'm sorry.” It had been a while since she had been harshly scolded like this.

Tung Mei looked at Xiao Ting's miserable form and sighed, ”Does it hurt?”

Xiao Ting bit her lip and nodded, sniffing. Tung Mei sighed again, ”Fine, you can cry this time.” Xiao Ting looked up at her and the tears came streaming down. Tung Mei pat her head and then took her to have her injuries seen to.
