All of the cleaning?
Xiao Ying was shocked. She said to the boy, “In the future, do your cleaning. If you get him to help you clean, I’ll get my brother to deal with your family.”
This was the first time Xiao Ying had used her status to bully others. However, she knew that this was the only thing that could make them afraid.
Thinking about it, she still felt that this was not enough. She held the little fatty’s hand and walked towards Class Seven’s classroom.
The little fatty did not dodge this time and allowed Xiao Ying to do as she pleased.
When they arrived at Class Sevel, it was almost time for class. All the students were sitting in the classroom. When they saw Xiao Ying pull the little fatty in, they were a little puzzled.
Xiao Ying pulled the little fatty to the podium and said loudly, “From now on, Little Fatty… Ahem, what’s your name?”
Thinking about how the boy from before had called him little fat pig, maybe calling him Little Fatty would hurt his pride.
The little fatty spoke softly, “Zhou Yao.”
Xiao Ying coughed lightly and said again, “From now on, Zhou Yao is under my protection. If anyone dares to bully him again, I’ll teach them a lesson.”
With that, she even waved her fists fiercely.
However, this action, when done by Xiao Ying, was incomparably cute.
The students below were quiet. Xiao Ying was very satisfied with the effect she had created and dragged the little fatty outside again.
Arriving at the teachers’ office, she found her homeroom teacher and said, “Prepare a car for me. I have to go to the hospital.”
“What’s wrong?” the homeroom teacher asked.
Xiao Ying pointed at Zhou Yao behind her and said, “It’s him.”
The homeroom teacher did not ask further. He led Xiao Ying and Zhou Yao outside and personally drove them to the hospital.
Xiao Ying stood at the side, accompanying Zhou Yao as the doctor used an ointment to rub his bruises.
Throughout the entire process, Xiao Ying was frightened at the sight of the bruises. She did not expect that Zhou Yao wouldn’t make a sound at all.
After the doctor finished applying the medicine, he patted Zhou Yao’s shoulder in admiration and said, “You’re a true man. Not bad.”
Even when Zhou Yao was praised, his expression did not change at all, as if nothing in the world had anything to do with him.
“Little Fatty, do you want to go home or go back to school?” Xiao Ying asked.
After speaking, Xiao Ying smiled apologetically and said, “Sorry, I meant Zhou Yao. Do you want to go back to school or home?”
Zhou Yao looked at Xiao Ying, his eyes suddenly shining with something. He tried his best to force a smile, wanting to say that he did not mind.
But in the end, he just managed to make his lips curve stiffly. He lowered his head in disappointment and said, “School.”
Xiao Ying nodded.
Zhou Yao returned to the classroom again. Everyone looked at him and discussed amongst themselves, but they were no longer brazenly scolding and beating him like before.
Zhou Yao held the handkerchief in his hand tightly. Xiao Ying had let him bite on it when he was getting his bruises treated.
All of this was given to him by Xiao Ying.
At this moment, if someone paid attention, they would realize that Zhou Yao’s eyes had a glint of light and were no longer lifeless.
Zhou Yao dragged his injured foot home. He had just opened the door when an ashtray hit his head.
He took a step back, losing his balance and falling to the ground.
Blood slowly flowed down his head.
Zhou Zhen’s furious voice sounded. “What took you so long? Do you want to starve me to death? Hurry up and go cook!”
Zhou Yao picked up his bag from the ground and stood up with difficulty. He walked towards the kitchen without saying a word.
Zhou Zhen was still cursing behind him.
“You’re so fat, my money’s probably all gone towards feeding you. From today onwards, you don’t have to eat dinner anymore.”
Zhou Yao prepared dinner, placed it on the table, and returned to his room.
He knew that if the man said that he would not let him eat, he would definitely not let him eat.
After finishing his homework, the little fatty lay on the bed with the handkerchief in his hand.. His stomach was already growling from hunger, but he made no moves.
