Chapter 402: Chapter 402
Knowing that there would be guests today, Gong Ruini went to bed early to save her energy.
Otherwise, with such a heavy workload, if she couldn’t rest well, her small frame really couldn’t handle it.
The children were sent off to rest one by one by Zhao Gang and the others, but they themselves had to continue burning the midnight oil.
First, they were the ones who needed to prepare for exams, so resting early would seem strange considering those who were coming to cause trouble.
Second, if those people canceled their plan, wouldn’t it mean they wasted all this revision time?
Third, if they really came, they also wanted them to cool their hotheads properly in the snow. If they left the provocative environment, wouldn’t it be great if they figured it out and didn’t want to be troublemakers anymore?
Unfortunately, the others were even more persistent. Seeing the lights still on inside the house, they stayed put in the snow no matter what.
Zhao He looked at the light in the yard, "Why haven’t they gone to sleep yet?"
It was already ten at night, he really couldn’t understand why they were still awake at this hour, "Don’t they know a warm bed is comfortable?"
Zhao He was truly a bit regretful, wondering why he insisted on coming. What he thought would be easy turned out to be so painful; hopefully, he could get it done in one go.
Cao Weidong, listening to the chattering Zhao He, was also filled with anger, "Can’t you shut up?"
God knows where Wang Gang found this guy, from when they left until now, he just kept talking without a break.
"I’m freezing, okay? If I don’t talk, I’m really worried I might freeze stiff."
"Aren’t you cold?" Zhao He knew he was chatty, but there was nothing he could do; he just felt cold.
It was fine if no one mentioned the cold, but once someone did, everyone else immediately felt really cold too. Northeast’s winter is no joke, and with the wind blowing through, it’s beyond words.
"I’m not coming tomorrow. For such little money, it’s not even worth the medicine."
Once someone started this topic, many others kept saying they wouldn’t come tomorrow.
"No way, Zhao Gang must increase the pay today." Going out in such cold weather was a real torture, they couldn’t suffer financially too.
"Right, right, didn’t Wang Gang say he has money and food vouchers? Why should we be polite?"
Wan Qiweng, listening from behind, was laughing a lot. They hadn’t even started and were already fighting among themselves. However, that saved her the trouble of catching someone to find out who was behind it all.
Knowing who it was, Wan Qiweng didn’t want to waste time and directly used the prepared small tactics from her childhood against Zhao He and his group.
Since it was winter and they were all bundled up in cotton clothes, hitting their bodies would have no effect, so Wan Qiweng aimed at their heads.
Even with cotton hats on, they aren’t very thick; if the force is strong enough, one can make them feel pain.
"Ouch." At first, Zhao He didn’t take it seriously, but later it became more and more painful, making him jump up immediately.
Cao Weidong, hearing such a loud shout, said, "Why are you shouting?"
"Don’t you know you need to be careful?"
"Cai Ming and the others haven’t slept yet, are you trying to get us killed?" Cao Weidong’s face turned white with fear.
If it were daytime, they could say they were just passing by staying here, but how could they explain it at night?
Were they here to study, visiting Cai Ming for help with questions?
Who would believe that answer, it’s not like they’re fools.
Zhao He felt wronged, "I’m doing it on purpose?"
Wang Hai stayed quiet on the side. He just wanted to make some quick money, not expecting Wang Gang’s supposedly easy task to be so troublesome, which infuriated him.
Whether they scared Cai Ming and the others or not, as long as they took action, it would be fine. However, they hadn’t done anything, so would Wang Gang agree to pay? Fınd the newest release on novel✦fire.net
"You..." Thinking of not getting paid and yet getting hurt, Wang Hai’s face was ugly. He was about to lecture Zhao He harshly when he too felt a heavy blow on his head.
It was painful. At that moment, Wang Hai cared less about scolding Zhao He and more about finding a place to dodge away.
Cao Weidong, seeing Wang Hai flee like a scurrying bear, couldn’t help but laugh. Hmph, that guy had acted all boastful before, thinking he was the best, and now look at him.
Before Cao Weidong could even mock him a couple of times, he felt the same pain on his head, "Who is it?"
One after another, they all said someone was hitting them. Cao Weidong initially thought Zhao He and the others were making excuses to leave, but after feeling it a few times, he realized something was off.
Someone must be attacking them, but who could it be? Just now, they had heard Cai Ming and the others reciting lines inside the house, indicating they were inside.
They had been watching the door closely and hadn’t seen anyone come out, so it shouldn’t be Cai Ming and the others.
But if it wasn’t Cai Ming and his group, then who was it? Unable to figure it out, Cao Weidong mumbled continuously, trying to calculate who might be helping Cai Ming’s group.
Before Cao Weidong could think of a suspect, he heard a voice, "Who’s making a racket outside?"
"Why aren’t you resting in the middle of the night?" Cai Ming’s voice got closer and closer.
Upon hearing Cai Ming’s voice, Cao Weidong and the others got scared stiff. Regardless of what plan they had, they couldn’t let Cai Ming find out about them.
All of them abandoned any thoughts of dealing with Cai Ming. They were busy running away. If Cai Ming spilled the beans, they’d be the ones in trouble.
Wan Qiweng watched them running away speedily, some so afraid of falling behind that when they slipped, they simply rolled away like snowballs.
Laughing until her stomach hurt, Wan Qiweng from the tree under the moonlight kept watching.
Based on their conversation, these people should try to make Wang Gang bleed a lot, getting him to increase their pay.
For Wang Gang, who might soon lose a large amount of money, Wan Qiweng felt no sympathy.
For those with bad intentions, Wan Qiweng believed they need some serious lessons.
When Cai Ming opened the yard gate, he saw a few round figures rolling and crawling away in the snow. Although he couldn’t see their expressions, he could imagine their sulking mood.
Gong Ruini, peering through the gaps at the troublemakers, was speechless seeing them leave without causing any trouble.
Their combat ability was truly weak. Really, with such bad skills they dared to come cause trouble, did they really think we were easy to bully?
"Boring." Gong Ruini expected some drama, but saw none, really disappointed.
Oh, why isn’t Ni Zi asleep? Cai Ming lowered his head to see his niece’s displeased expression, scared out of his wits.
