Chapter 393 -382: Zeng Xiangyang Defies Heaven, Earth, and Air

After all, in some ways, this man really acted like an unreasonable three-year-old.

Su Manhan approached Qiao Jing.

“Qiao Jing, your aunt has a favor to ask of you. She’s currently in the study; shall I take you there?”

Whether her nephew could study well or not depended on whether Qiao Jing would agree to take him as a disciple.

Qiao Jing slightly furrowed her brows, feeling a bit strange, but she still stood up and followed Su Manhan.

“Okay.”

She and Su Manqian were not exactly on familiar terms. What could she possibly want her help with?

A surprised smile appeared on Su Manhan’s face as she pulled Qiao Jing toward the study.

Zeng Xiangyang muttered discontentedly after watching Qiao Jing being led away.

“Why is aunt taking my cousin away? My cousin hasn’t even agreed to take me as her disciple yet.”

He was so close to convincing his cousin to take him as a disciple, and his aunt had to ruin it!

Zhan Qipei heard Zeng Xiangyang’s complaint and gave the kid a sidelong glance.

He noticed that Zeng Xiangyang still had that careless demeanor, slumping on the sofa. His voice carried an undeniable authority.

“Sit properly.”

Though Zhan Qipei’s voice exuded an invisible pressure and Zeng Xiangyang really wanted to not listen, he did not dare.

He still feared Zhan Qipei; after all, he had heard all about his cousin’s reputation outside.

Words like “Iceberg poker face,” “cold-blooded,” and “ruthless” had all been associated with Zhan Qipei.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

All day long, he carried a solemn expression as if the whole world owed him money.

Zeng Xiangyang immediately sat up straight on the sofa, eagerly looking toward the doorway of the study, his hand unconsciously reaching for his phone.

Just as he touched his phone and was about to open it, he suddenly felt a cold gaze on his hand.

He didn’t even need to guess whose gaze it was. It was his Iceberg poker face cousin’s.

Of all the people present, no one else but his cousin could emit such a strong presence that terrified him.

Agitated, he itched to retaliate but under Zhan Qipei’s intense aura, he had no choice but to put his phone away.

Zhan Nanqing, who had observed the whole scene, almost burst out laughing at this point.

She picked up the chips on the table and started munching on them, crunch, crunch.

Zeng Xiangyang noticed Zhan Nanqing’s actions, and immediately jumped up as if he had swallowed gunpowder.

“Why are you eating my chips? I didn’t say you could have them!”

Those were meant for his cousin!

Zeng Tingyun frowned and spoke up.

“Xiao Yang, you shouldn’t talk to your cousin like that.”

Zeng Xiangyang didn’t listen, continuing to berate vehemently.

“Who let her eat my chips? Those were for my cousin, she hasn’t even eaten them yet, why did you? Plus, look at how fat you’ve gotten, why are you still eating chips?”

Zhan Nanqing hadn’t even finished chewing the chips in her mouth and almost choked on Zeng Xiangyang’s words.

She put down the chips, took a napkin, and wiped her mouth while defiantly retorting.

“If you don’t want me to eat them, just say so, as if I covet your chips! I only had a few, I can buy you more if you want. And where have I gotten fat? It looks like you’re trying to get on my nerves, aren’t you?”

She admitted it was wrong to eat someone else’s chips, but calling her fat was something she couldn’t tolerate!

Zeng Xiangyang scoffed and stood with his arms crossed.

“Don’t you feel it when you stand next to your cousin?”

Zhan Nanqing was stumped by Zeng Xiangyang’s remark. Although she wanted to retort, what he said was true and she couldn’t find a reason to argue back.

Qiao Jing was indeed thinner than her, even though she was pregnant with triplets, she was still slimmer.

If Qiao Jing hadn’t been pregnant, she would have been even thinner than she is now. If Zeng Xiangyang had seen her like that, by comparison, he definitely would have called her a pig.

Her cousin really criticizes everything and everyone, never sparing a single one.

Zeng Tingyun looked somewhat upset as he apologized to Zhan Nanqing.

“I’m sorry, Nanqing. Xiao Yang is just a child, he doesn’t know how to speak properly, let me apologize for him.”

Zeng Xiangyang stepped forward a few paces, snatched the chips from in front of Zhan Nanqing, and then plopped back down onto the sofa.

“Dad, what I said was the truth. Are we not even allowed to speak the truth now?”

Zhan Nanqing was nearly enraged to the point of being sick by Zeng Tingyun’s words. She decided out of sight, out of mind, put on her headphones, and started browsing her phone.

If she talked a few more words with this cousin, she might die young…

Wait.

It would be him dying young.

Beat up this brat!

Inside the study.

Qiao Jing’s eyes brimmed with a touch of confusion as she looked towards Su Manqian and spoke.

“Mrs. Zeng, what did you need from me?”

Su Manqian was delighted that Qiao Jing had agreed to come, hurriedly walking up to her.

“I wanted to ask you about something, something only you can help with.”

Qiao Jing furrowed her brows, her curiosity growing.

“Go ahead.”

What could it be that only she could help with?

Su Manqian sat down in a chair with a troubled expression and explained her intentions to Qiao Jing.

“My Xiao Yang really likes to play games. He’s grown up and the school books are still brand new, never even looked at once.

Moreover, the teachers at school told me that Xiao Yang always sleeps during classes or plays games, and they can’t control him.”

Qiao Jing nodded her head, waiting for her to continue.

In the time she had spent with Zeng Xiangyang, she too had noticed that he was a hardcore gaming enthusiast.

Su Manqian frowned, looking worriedly at Qiao Jing.

“You know, as a mother, I definitely don’t want to see Xiao Yang become like this, but everyone in our family has tried to persuade him, and he just won’t listen. He’s only focused on growing up and taking over the company, and that’s not acceptable.”

Qiao Jing responded with a hum.

She agreed with this point; a true wealthy second generation isn’t about spending money wildly, but about receiving a good education and being well-mannered and knowledgeable.

Su Manqian continued talking.

“Usually, when we tell him to study hard, he nearly tears the house down. Now, he’s willing to talk like this to you, and he still guarantees to study well. Would you help us out, take him as an apprentice and make him study?

Otherwise, I really just don’t know what to do anymore.”

Su Manhan began to help persuade too.

“Qiao Jing, please help out, not just for my sister; I’m also really worried about Xiao Yang.”

Qiao Jing hesitated for a moment but ultimately agreed to it.

“Okay.”

But she wasn’t going to take Zeng Xiangyang as an apprentice directly.

Both Su Manhan and Su Manqian exchanged smiles when they heard that the matter was settled.

Xiao Yang was saved!

Qiao Jing opened the door to the study and slowly walked back to the living room.

Sitting on the sofa, utterly bored, Zeng Xiangyang quickly stood up when he saw Qiao Jing, his eyes sparkling.

“Cousin-in-law! You’re finally back! How about that matter I mentioned before? Will you take me as an apprentice?”

He was still somewhat unsure inside since Qiao Jing had rejected him so many times before, and it was he who had shamelessly begged her to take him as an apprentice.

However, this time, Qiao Jing’s response was different from before.
