Chapter 1295 - 1267: It’s Over, My Ally Has Switched Sides

Chapter 1295: Chapter 1267: It’s Over, My Ally Has Switched Sides

The Third Senior Brother saw me, and found me completely different from the woman the First Senior Brother described as more vicious than a mother ape in the Amazon Rainforest?

Nong Yao awkwardly cleared his throat. Everything has two sides; don’t just look at how nice this wicked woman seems now. You didn’t see how terrible she was when she was causing trouble!

Tang Shao shifted his gaze back to Qian, as though trying to study what exactly makes her so detestable, but Qian happened to lift her head and their eyes met.

Tang Shao reflexively stepped back two steps, "What do you want to do!"

Qian, holding Xiaowei, walked over. Tang Shao tensed up, watching this wicked woman—according to First Senior Brother’s mouth—come closer and closer...

"Thank you, Third Senior Brother! This time I owe it all to you! On behalf of my entire family, I express my gratitude. If there’s ever anything I, Chen Xiaoqian, can do, I won’t hesitate to risk life and limb. Thank you!"

Qian, who never bows to anyone, solemnly bent to Tang Shao.

Tang Shao was ready for a long-term battle with this wicked woman; who would have thought Qian would be so polite, causing Tang Shao’s face to turn increasingly red...

He remained silent, so Qian kept her bowing position, showing immense gratitude to the one who saved her daughter.

"N-no problem!" Tang Shao stammered, reversing his earlier tension, his face still red.

Qio Yu Xuan quickly helped Qian stand straight, "You don’t have to be so polite with him. Your Third Senior Brother has a bit of social anxiety; being so polite makes him uncomfortable. Just talk to him normally; arguing is fine, just don’t be polite. When others are polite, he struggles to breathe."

"Then why was he fine when my mom thanked him?" Qian questioned.

"Uh, your Third Senior Brother’s issue is only with young women, especially pretty ones."

"Oh..." Qian thought, isn’t this more like the trait of a shut-in from the two-dimensional world who becomes mute around girls?

"Master, don’t talk nonsense! I don’t have any issues! I’m a psychiatrist. How could I have such a problem?" he protested stubbornly.

Half sincerely, half testing, Qian bowed to him again.

"Thanks again!"

Whoosh!

Everyone saw Tang Shao’s face flushed red once more.

"This is even more reliable than litmus paper. Is there really such a condition?" Mrs. Yu thought of litmus paper in the lab, turning blue in alkaline solutions and red in acidic ones.

"I don’t have a condition!" Even in such a state, he still refused to admit it.

Qian still wanted to test him, but Tang Shao, seeing her about to bow again, nervously retreated several steps, his hands raised to ward off.

"I have a condition! Please stop thanking me!"

His actions lightened the atmosphere in the room significantly, making Qian and her family laugh thanks to the Third Brother’s antics.

Tang Shao resentfully glared at his master, thinking how he could reveal his shortcomings to his junior sister upon meeting her! Wouldn’t he be fully under the control of this legendary witch from now on?

However, thinking again, as he watched Qian’s smiling face, he added internally:

This legendary wicked woman doesn’t seem to be as evil as First Senior Brother made her out to be...

Nong Yao didn’t know how to explain Chen Xiaoqian’s complexity. Watching his "ally" expose his weaknesses after just one round, and using such a look on Qian, he felt he would have to fight alone from here.

Taking advantage of everyone’s distraction, Nong Yao stealthily pulled the Third Brother aside for a word, "Let me tell you, don’t be deceived by Qian’s friendly front. She’s an ultimate witch, not only bad herself but she also raises a green-skinned military dog that’s even more ruthless. Back then, it indiscriminately beat up your pitiful First Senior Brother. There’s no good person in this family!"

Just as Nong Yao finished whispering, the door opened, and Yu Minglang marched in wearing a uniform. The imposing military presence made Tang Shao squint, appearing to be someone noteworthy. Is this the villain who beat up the First Senior Brother multiple times?

If that’s the case, then he certainly should—

When Yu Minglang received Qian’s call for help, his reaction was no less anxious than hers. He had just set up a blockade plan against human traffickers when Qian informed him that the child had been rescued by her Third Senior Brother, unharmed.

Yu Minglang was already heading over. Although he’d heard the child was safe, he still came personally.

Qian handed her sleeping daughter to him. Little Xiaowei, in her dreams, seemed to sense a change in atmosphere. Her little nose twitched, and upon detecting a familiar and comforting scent, she continued to sleep peacefully.

Tang Shao watched as the stern and fierce man transformed into gentle and tender in front of the baby. Seeing Xiaowei, Tang Shao gave another puzzled glance at First Senior Brother.

Is this the "violent dog" you spoke of?

Doesn’t he seem friendly!

Nong Yao felt as if he were suffering in silence, wondering aloud if the heavens were truly favoring the witch’s family.

After spending so much time crafting a negative image of Qian’s family before the Third Brother, finally creating an ally in shared enmity, the illusion shattered within an hour of their meeting. Ugh!

While others didn’t know the Third Brother’s quirks, he did!

Though the Third Brother dressed like a non-mainstream rapper and had a weird personality, often scaring children with his stern face and adept at fleecing rich clients just like others on the farm, he was different in that Third Brother, while loving money, had a class of people he wouldn’t charge, instead supporting them.

This class included people like Qian and Yu Minglang, who cherished their children deeply. Meeting such individuals, the Third Brother not only wouldn’t take money but sometimes even offered it.

Tang Shao was an orphan with a tragic background, yet not abandoned by parents. In fact, his parents were devotedly in love; during a massive earthquake, they shielded him but were both buried, leaving Third Brother with an inherent fondness for such devoted parents. Parents pleading for medical help while holding children would find Third Brother waiving medicine fees, even offering money through tears—compassionately fierce!

To others, Qian holding her child might not be significant, but for Third Brother, it added considerable esteem, raising his favorability immensely during that brief minute. Nong Yao fancied he could see Third Brother’s affection for Qian soaring visibly with imaginary "biubiubiu," can you believe it!

Now, he hoped True. Fierce Dog. Qiang would harbor dislikes towards Yu Xiaoqiang, then subsequently—

Just as Nong Yao’s thought flashed, Yu Minglang walked over to Tang Shao.

"Thank you for rescuing my daughter! Please visit our home, where I’ll express my gratitude personally!"

"No need for formalities." Tang Shao replied, overwhelmed.

"Please, don’t decline. By saving my daughter, you are a benefactor to me, Yu Minglang. No words can express sufficient thanks; should you ever need anything, just ask! Today, please honor us with your presence so I may host you all!"

Hmm... This "fierce dog" from myth doesn’t seem as merciless as First Senior Brother claimed!
