Chapter 126: Third Master vs. Cousin, Another Confrontation

Chapter 126: Third Master vs. Cousin, Another Confrontation

After speaking, Qiao Xiyan took his knife and fork and slowly cut a piece of steak in front of him.

He had been holding knives since he was young. So even though he was holding cutlery, he still couldn’t change his habits. His force was strong as he cut the steak uniformly.

When carving stones and jades, the cuts had to be precise and full of force. So when he cut food, he always inexplicably used some fierce force.

“It’s fine if you don’t go to that tutoring center. The exam is coming up soon. If you think it’s necessary, we can hire a private tutor.” Qiao Xiyan had come over at the last minute to take a look at Song Fengwan’s studying environment.

After what happened just now, he didn’t have a single good impression of that tutoring center.

“No need. I’m almost done learning everything. It’ll be the same at home.”

“As you wish.”

“When you talked to those teachers just now, did you mean that you wanted to lodge a complaint against them?” Song Fengwan still remembered that those people were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

“It was just to scare them.” Qiao Xiyan put down the tableware and wiped the corner of his mouth. “Logically speaking, the lady who made things difficult for you had totally no relations with you. When they didn’t understand her intentions, they shouldn’t have let you meet her. That’s their dereliction of duty.

“Secondly, in the face of an emergency, they didn’t stop it in time. When something happened, they just watched the commotion and then blindly meddled. They thought that this matter didn’t concern them at the start and eventually came out to mediate at the end. They don’t deserve to be teachers and role models.

“During normal times, I would definitely report this kind of tutoring center to the relevant authorities. But now, the students there are all preparing for the college entrance exam. So it’s enough to scare those teachers. We can’t delay the children’s college entrance exam.

“It’s the critical moment for the last spurt. It’s not a pity for the tutoring center to close down, but we shouldn’t affect the exam candidates.”

Song Fengwan nodded seriously and felt Qiao Xiyan’s status in her heart rise once again.

“How’s your stay at Third Master Fu’s house? Are you used to it?” Qiao Xiyan’s tone was serious.

“Yes, he takes care of me a lot. Because of what’s happening at home, I wasn’t in a good mood, so he even took me out to ski. It’s just that I’m usually too busy, so I could only spend the weekend there. I didn’t have enough fun.”

When Song Fengwan spoke of skiing, her excitement exuded from her words and expression.

Qiao Xiyan nodded. “Let’s go shopping later and buy something before we go to his house.”

It was not polite to visit someone’s home empty-handed. Moreover, Fu Chen had also taken care of Song Fengwan for so long, so he definitely had to express his gratitude.

Only then did Song Fengwan suddenly remember that she hadn’t given Fu Chen the Buddhist prayer bead bracelet she had bought with Qiao Xiyan.

If Cousin finds out about this, he’ll definitely scold me to death.

At the time, I only thought about giving the local specialties and completely forgot about the bracelet.

This time, Qiao Xiyan brought a white jade Buddha statue that he had personally carved. It was exquisitely crafted, and a small statue like this would cost at least six figures on the market.

The two of them went to the supermarket to buy some health supplements. Song Fengwan was thinking about the prayer bead bracelet and was a little distracted.

Although Suzhou had been a wealthy land since ancient times, it couldn’t compare to Beijing. Naturally, there were many good things here. Qiao Xiyan also specially went to an equipment shop to buy a few carving knives.

“You already have so many carving knives. Why are you still buying more?” Song Fengwan was puzzled.

“I want to try carving wood and bamboo recently, so I need a blade.”

Song Fengwan didn’t know much about carving. She only knew that most beginners used a medium-sized knife with a flat point. When carving stones, they used a flat-pointed knife, and when carving bronze, they used a bevel knife. There were many things to pay attention to.

***

Fu Chen received a call from Uncle Nian saying that Qiao Xiyan was here to visit, and he then hurried home from the Pear Garden.

He had accompanied his mother to listen to the opera, ‘The Beheading Case of Chen Shimei’. The only part of the opera he heard was, ‘Executioner! Behead!’

The tiger-head guillotine on the stage shone with a cold light. Fu Chen only felt a chill at the back of his neck, and it was giving him an ominous premonition.

After explaining the situation to Old Madam Fu and returning home, as soon as he entered the house, he saw dozens of carving knives lined up in a row on his table…

The light shone across the blades, and the chill seeped into his bones.

“Third Master Fu.” Qiao Xiyan stood up and shook Fu Chen’s hand. “I just bought some new knives, and I was itching to look at them, so I took up your space.”

“It’s alright.” Fu Chen’s expression didn’t change.

Shi Fang stared at the dozens of knives, and his back felt cold. These knives could cut stone and carve jade. Used on people, it wouldn’t be difficult to skin them and cut their bones.

He’s really a ruthless character.

He’s visiting someone’s place, and he’s directly establishing an imposing air for himself to Third Master?

“Third Master, my visit is too sudden. This is a greeting gift for you. Please don’t be polite.” Qiao Xiyan gave Fu Chen the small white jade statue packaged nicely in a box. Fu Chen accepted it and thanked him.

“I came in a hurry. Sorry to disturb you.”

Although Qiao Xiyan was a little domineering, he was also reasonable. Fu Chen was very good to Song Fengwan, so he was naturally polite to him, and his attitude was obviously much better than when they had first met.

“It’s alright. Are you staying here tonight? I’ll get someone to clean up a room for you.”

“That’ll disturb you too much.”

“If my mom finds out that you came to my house but went to stay at a hotel, she won’t let me off, so you don’t have to be polite. I’ll get someone to clean up the room you stayed in last time.” Fu Chen used Old Madam Fu as a reason, and it was very reasonable.

“I won’t be polite then. I also bought some other things.” Qiao Xiyan pointed to a pile of health supplements not far away. “Please don’t be polite as well.”

Fu Chen’s gaze landed on the health supplements piled up aside, and his face darkened…

On one of the packages, it was clearly labeled: [For middle-aged and elderly people’s consumption].

Middle-aged and elderly people?

This is for me?

“Please take a seat first. I’ll go change my clothes,” Fu Chen said.

“Okay.” When Qiao Xiyan was choosing health supplements, he also noticed the label. At his age, Fu Chen is considered middle-aged, right?

Shi Fang stood at the side, trying to hold himself back from laughing out loud.

This cousin is pretty formidable. Middle-aged and elderly, that certainly hurt so f*cking much. But he’s his future cousin-in-law, so Third Master couldn’t flare up and even had to work hard to maintain a smile. I bet he’s so f*cking aggrieved.

This person is definitely a high-level troll.
