Chasing You Like a Tenacious Falcon

Chapter 29

Zuo family, third floor master bedroom.

At 6:55 am, the alarm clock rang, and Zuo Zhiyu and Xu Zhiyi both sat up in bed, starting their day exhausted.

Last night at the banquet, they met many important people, and even chatted with the Wei family for a bit. After that, they attended a cocktail party, not getting home until 2 am.

They had fun playing, but were just as exhausted when they went to bed.

They both thought of the door banging every morning, it was practically a psychological scar at this point!

So the two set an alarm ahead of time to deal with it, deciding to wake up early to appease Quan Zhisui before going back to sleep.

But time ticked by, from 6:55 to 7, and again to 7:30, yet the bedroom door remained silent.

Quan Zhisui hadn't come at all!

Xu Zhiyi was going crazy trying to restrain her anger as she said: "Dear, Quan Zhisui isn't saying good morning to you today?"

Zuo Zhiyu was also confused, but he was tired and didn't want to get up and ask, so he said to Xu Zhiyi: "You go downstairs and see."

Xu Zhiyi's face collapsed: "Do we really need to make a big fuss about this?"

Zuo Zhiyu: "Then ask Gu Lan, isn't she the nanny for both kids?"

Xu Zhiyi took out her phone and called Gu Lan. Half a minute later, she was completely stunned. She turned her head and said: "Dear, today is the weekend, Quan Zhisui doesn't have school."

Quan Zhisui was still fast asleep!!!

After a long pause, Zuo Zhiyu squeezed out a single word: "Damn!"

The two were extremely angry, but there was nothing they could do. They laid back down and buried their heads under the covers to sleep.

Two hours later, at 9:30 am.

Knock knock!

Quan Zhisui, with a piece of bread in her mouth, knocked on the door of the third floor room.

She would come disturb the two every morning, she just got to decide the time. She had gone to bed late last night, so of course she woke up late this morning, plus it was the weekend. Wasn't that perfectly normal?

Knock knock! Bang bang!

Quan Zhisui knocked and banged on the door, following her routine of harassment.

Xu Zhiyi was woken up first, hearing the familiar yet terrifying sound of knocking. She felt like she had just fallen asleep and was forced to open her eyes, which stung badly and could barely open.

She strongly suppressed the urge to scream and cry, and shook awake Zuo Zhiyu, who was snoring beside her.

Xu Zhiyi's voice was choked with sobs: "Dear! Dear, wake up!"

Your crazy daughter is at it again!

When Zuo Zhiyu opened his eyes he was still confused. Hearing the banging get louder, he began to panic: "What's wrong? What's going on? Didn't you say she doesn't have school on weekends?"

"She's up!" Xu Zhiyi screamed in despair.

Zuo Zhiyu hastily put on his clothes and waved his hand: "You, you go open the door."

Xu Zhiyi was nearly crying. She got up and opened the bedroom door.

Quan Zhisui still had a spirited look about her. She was even holding a piece of bread, eating while knocking on the door.

But she hadn't come alone.

Behind her stood a young man with a bruised and swollen face.

At first, Xu Zhiyi didn't react to who it was. But when she took a closer look, she shrieked: "Zichen! Zichen, what happened to you?!"

"Aunt Xu, you still haven't said good morning to me," Quan Zhisui reminded her.

Saying good morning was the first task, her son's life and death was lower priority.

Xu Zhiyi's mind went blank. She hastily smiled at Quan Zhisui and reflexively greeted: "Good morning, Quan Quan..."

After saying it, she reacted with a start.

"Ah! Wait!" Xu Zhiyi's eyes bulged out: "What is going on here? Tell me what happened! How did my son get beaten like this?"

Quan Zhisui calmly replied: "He was beaten by outsiders."

Xu Zhiyi's face twitched. She couldn't comprehend this, she could only blink blankly: "Oh, uh, thank you..."

Quan Zhisui's face was impassive: "No need to thank me, pay me."

With that, she looked into the room.

Zuo Zhiyu had already put on a coat and walked over. He smiled at her: "Quan Quan, good morning! Daddy says good morning to you today!"

After saying it, he could go back to sleep, right?

Quan Zhisui was very satisfied: "Good morning Daddy, I'm going to go play now."

Zuo Zhiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay okay, go play."

Because of the angle, he hadn't even seen Zuo Zichen's injuries at all. His mind was completely preoccupied with saying good morning, and he also hadn't heard Xu Zhiyi's random screaming from earlier.

After Quan Zhisui spoke, she didn't care how distressed Xu Zhiyi was over her son. She directly reached out and slammed the door shut, separating mother and son.

Xu Zhiyi stared blankly at the closed door, wanting to open it and run out.

But Zuo Zhiyu's angry shout rang out: "What are you doing! Don't open the door! Are you crazy? What are you trying to stir up?"

Xu Zhiyi: "No, it's just, my son..."

Zuo Zhiyu: "Stop worrying about your son! I want to sleep now! We'll deal with anything after I wake up!"

Xu Zhiyi covered her face and crouched down, silently weeping. Her mind wasn't totally clear right now, but she also didn't dare defy Zuo Zhiyu.

Compared to her son being beaten, she was more afraid of angering Zuo Zhiyu and getting a divorce.

Outside the door.

Zuo Zichen numbly followed Quan Zhisui downstairs.

He was also nearly crazy. Early in the morning Quan Zhisui had woken him up without letting him eat breakfast, just dragged him upstairs to knock on the door and do things he didn't understand at all.

The key was, he was in so much pain! His whole body hurt!

Zuo Zichen thought about the conversation earlier. Quan Zhisui had turned the fight into this in just a few sentences.

She made it seem like he was beaten by petty hooligans?

She made it seem like she had saved him?

She actually said she had saved him!

Zuo Zichen looked at the injuries on his body, unable to calm down for a long time.

Quan Zhisui had slept well and was full of energy as she arranged: "Take out your allowance, I want to go shopping for clothes today."

It was autumn now. She didn't have any thick clothes, she couldn't just wear her school uniform at home every day.

Zuo Zichen didn't dare refuse. He agreed without hesitation, spending his money was better than getting beaten again, just don't beat him anymore!

After thinking for a bit, he was suddenly curious: "Sister, you were pretty naughty as a kid, right?"

Quan Zhisui looked back, shocked: "Huh? How did you know?"

Any single thing from her childhood could shock people. The beatings she took were more than all the older apprentice brothers combined.

Zuo Zichen smiled awkwardly: "Ha ha... I can just tell."

No normal person is as destructive as you, or as able to twist words, or as shameless!
