Chapter 508: My sister-in-law will definitely not spare them.

Looking at the guilty appearance of the three, Uncle Li narrowed his eyes.


"Tell me, what have you been up to again?"


Li Zilan raised her hand and whitewashed first, "We haven't done anything. You know, I'm taking the ladylike route now."


Ladylike?


Uncle Li scrutinized Li Zilan from top to bottom, unable to find a trace of ladylike behavior in her since she was little.


Next was Shen Ran, who blinked innocently.


"Uncle Li, you know, I never initiate bullying."


Uncle Li looked at him deeply, his gaze shifting to Su Wang.


Subconsciously, Su Wang swallowed and calmly said, "Uncle Li, I haven't done anything either."


In the more than ten years they had known each other, Uncle Li would have to be crazy to believe their words.


He walked towards Qiao Xi.


As soon as Qiao Xi saw him approaching, he quickly backed away.


"Don't come near me, my flesh is not tasty!"


This was indeed a shady place, and Su Wang and the others knew this person. Today, it seemed like he was going to settle the score here.


Qiao Xi, who was already scared, wasn't thinking clearly.


Uncle Li took a step towards him, and he retreated three steps.


His exquisite and handsome face turned pale, and a flicker of fear shone in his eyes.


Uncle Li couldn't help but stop in his tracks, not daring to push the child further.


This couldn't go on like this.


Uncle Li stood still and thought for a moment, then turned around and picked up a stick from the corner, walking towards the four of them.


Seeing this posture, Su Wang, Shen Ran, and Li Zilan almost simultaneously stood up and ran towards the door like rabbits.


"If you three dare to walk out of this door today, don't ever come back again!"


Uncle Li's enraged voice rang out from behind.


The footsteps of the three, who were about to step out of the shop, halted.


Qiao Xi, who was running after them, was blocked at the door by the three.


Seeing Uncle Li approaching with a stick in hand, he squeezed himself next to Su Wang seeking shelter.


There was no other way, because among the three, Su Wang was the only one who seemed somewhat reliable.


Next, his perception of Su Wang was about to be shattered.


Uncle Li stood in front of the three, the stick poking the ground, and stared menacingly at Su Wang, Li Zilan, and Shen Ran.


"Tell me, what exactly have you been up to?"


"Not much..."


Li Zilan had just opened her mouth when Uncle Li interrupted her sharply, "I want to hear the truth, not your useless sophistry!"


It had to be said that Uncle Li knew the three very well.


Under his intimidation, the three told Uncle Li in detail the three stories they had just told Qiao Xi.


Uncle Li's face turned iron-blue, then black.


Clearly, they had angered him greatly.


"The three of you are naturally adept at causing trouble for me. Have you ever done anything good in my shop since you were little?"


Uncle Li walked up to Su Wang and forcefully knocked his leg.


"Ouch! Uncle Li, be gentle, it hurts!"


When Uncle Li swung at him, Su Wang swiftly dodged, but still got hit on the leg.


With the number of times he had evaded over the years, this pain was nothing to him.


"You've always liked fighting since you were young, getting beaten up every day with blood on your body, a child who never had enough to eat.


I pitied you when you were so small and brought you into the shop, giving you an adult portion of wontons. Back then, a bowl of steaming wontons could be sold for two yuan!

After that, if you didn't appreciate it, it would have been fine, but you started taking advantage. Whenever you were hungry, you would come to me for food.


If I didn't feed you, you would look at me pitifully. When did I ever let you go hungry?!

Who did I feed the wontons in your belly to, you heartless brat!"

Uncle Li finished speaking but still felt unsatisfied. He tapped Su Wang's leg lightly, reducing the force this time.


"You've been with me for over ten years, and this is how you repay me, ungrateful brat."


Su Wang grinned and said, "Uncle Li, we were just trying to scare him, just like we scared Xiao Wu back then. It's a way of teaching him about the harsh realities of society."


"Nonsense! Utter nonsense!"


Uncle Li completely disagreed with his explanation.


He walked up to Shen Ran and squinted his eyes, saying, "You've never fit in with people since you were a child. I don't know if you were bullied or if you were the one doing the bullying. You would often come home late at night, carrying your backpack, unable to catch your mom before she locked the door.


Every time you couldn't go home, I took you in and even gave you free wontons to eat.


When you had nowhere to stay, you would sleep on a few chairs in this house and wait for your mom to come home after her night shift.


One time, you came to me in the middle of the night with injuries, excitedly telling me that you finally passed an exam. And based on that, you made a demand to have eggs in your wontons from then on!

I gave you free wontons, and I would often go out of my way to add eggs. You always finished the wontons and soup completely. And now that you're grown up, this is how you repay me?"


Shen Ran, with a face of self-reflection, pleaded, "Uncle Li, we were just trying to scare him. We didn't actually tarnish the reputation of your wonton shop.


Everyone in the West City knows that your wontons are the best! Even Mr. Jiang often sends people to buy them!"


"Believe you? Pigs will fly!"


Uncle Li, as usual, tapped Shen Ran's leg.


Su Wang, who was on the side, listened to Uncle Li and immediately shouted, "Uncle Li, you're too biased towards Ranzi. Not only did you go easy on him when we were kids, but even now, you're lighter on him than on me!"


Uncle Li glanced back at him and asked, "Did you ever pass an exam when you were a kid?"


"..."


Su Wang deflated like a balloon, unable to utter a word.


Uncle Li once again approached Li Zilan.


"Young lady..."


He had just started speaking when Li Zilan folded her hands together and rubbed them, begging him, "Uncle Li, I was wrong. I shouldn't have tarnished our family's shop, and I shouldn't have used the same old tricks to bully Xiaowu's cousin.


I promise I won't dare to do it again next time. Please forgive me this time, Uncle Li. I guarantee it will be the last time, and I won't make the same mistake again!"


"Cough, cough..."


Uncle Li placed the stick in his hand on the nearest table.


He nodded sternly at Li Zilan and said with authority, "This is the last time. If it happens again, we'll settle all the old and new scores together."


"Uncle Li, you're the best!"


Li Zilan happily embraced Uncle Li's arm, her face radiant with relief after escaping trouble.


With the four of them resolving the issue, Qiao Xi was left dumbfounded.


So, he had really been made a fool of? There were no disappearing little boys or beggars.


The people mentioned earlier were Su Wang, Shen Ran, and Li Zilan.


They had conspired to fool him!


Qiao Xi trembled with anger, staring at Su Wang and the others in disbelief.


In all his years, it was the first time he had been played like this.


"You... you've gone too far!!!"


Qiao Xi roared at the four of them, his face turning red with anger.


Uncle Li looked at Qiao Xi's aggrieved appearance and walked up to him.


This time, Qiao Xi was no longer afraid and didn't back away.


If everything they had said earlier was false, then what was there to fear?


Uncle Li put his arm around Qiao Xi's shoulder and walked towards the house.


"Child, don't lower yourself to their level. They are used to the ways of the West City. Even Xiaowu was once teased by them."


"My sister-in-law won't spare them!"


Qiao Xi knew Qin Ru'an's temper quite well. Although she seemed silent, she held grudges.
