Chapter 581: Punish by the Family Rules!

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Zhao Yanzi’s face was still red, and her chest moved up and down slightly to show that she wasn’t calm at all.

Hao Ren looked Zhao Yanzi who now placed her hands on the table, thought back to what he sensed, and felt a little strange and slightly awkward at the same time.

Yet, their minds were in sync of the sweetness just now. They didn’t keep track of time, but that kiss was at least half a minute to a minute as they kissed each other softly and carefully.

It felt burning when they thought about it.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Zi! Ren! Do you guys want to eat midnight snacks?” Zhao Hongyu yelled from outside.

“No! Mom! You’re too annoying! I’m studying now!” Zhao Yanzi yelled back.

After yelling, she looked at Hao Ren again, and her face was half red.

She shrank her neck a little as if she had been wronged.

Hao Ren felt slightly bad as well. If Zhao Yanzi’s parents saw the scene just now, he didn’t know how they would react.

He was a bit nervous when he held Zhao Yanzi in his arms, and he believed Zhao Yanzi felt the same way.

Her parents were either in the room next door or downstairs, and they kissed secretly. Even though it was quick, it wouldn’t be good if they saw this incident.

Zhao Yanzi was still slightly afraid of her parents, and Hao Ren also respected Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang. Although Zhao Yanzi was his fiancée, Hao Ren still treated her like a little girl most of the time.

“It’s getting late, Ren. Just stay here for the night!” Zhao Hongyu yelled again.

“Mom! Come in and talk to us!” Zhao Yanzi yelled.

She felt a bit guilty and was afraid that Zhao Hongyu suspected what she was doing with Hao Ren inside the room. That was why she simply yelled and told her mom to come in.

Zhao Hongyu pushed open the door and walked in when she got Zhao Yanzi’s consent.

She held a plate full of sliced cantaloupes; it was their midnight snack.

Seeing Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi sitting in two chairs uprightly beside each other, Zhao Hongyu walked over with a smile. “How’s studying?”

“Pretty… pretty well.” Zhao Yanzi hesitated a bit and answered.

Zhao Hongyu came closer and looked at the exam papers on the table. She saw that there were answers left by Zhao Yanzi’s ballpoint pen and corrections written by Hao Ren’s pencil, so she nodded in relief and said, “You’re in Grade Nine now and have to study hard!”

“I know!” Zhao Yanzi answered with a red face.

Zhao Hongyu turned her head to look at Hao Ren. “It’s really late now. Don’t go back tonight, Ren. Just stay here for the night and sleep in Zi’s room.”

“Mom!” Hao Ren hadn’t answered, but Zhao Yanzi jumped up right away and screamed.

“What are you doing?” Zhao Hongyu asked in confusion when she saw Zhao Yanzi getting agitated.

“Hao Ren, he… he can’t stay over in my room!” Zhao Yanzi said while blushing.

“Why can’t he? It’s not like he hasn’t stayed over before. Ren took great care of you, and you’re not taking care of him,” Zhao Hongyu said with dissatisfaction.

“No… he just can’t!” Zhao Yanzi insisted as her eyes turned a little red.

Hao Ren stayed over here before because there was nothing to their relationships. Now their relationships had moved forward, Zhao Yanzi didn’t dare to have Hao Ren sleep here. She was afraid that Hao Ren might do something at night.

“Ren, don’t worry about her. It’s up to you.” Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren directly when she saw Zhao Yanzi’s weird reaction.

Hao Ren looked at Zhao Yanzi whose face was as red as a monkey’s bottom and said with a smile, “I’ll go back. I won’t crash in Zi’s bedroom.”

Zhao Yanzi’s blush faded slightly when she heard Hao Ren’s answer. However, she felt empty; she felt like she kicked him out.

Zhao Hongyu looked at Zhao Yanzi’s red face and suspected that they had done something. However, she was sure that Hao Ren wouldn’t bully Zhao Yanzi, so she didn’t ask further; she guessed that something awkward happened between them.

Hao Ren stood up from the chair and took out the purple gold hairpin from his necklace.

“I’m going back now. Please tell Uncle not to worry about the punishment. That’s something minor, and also… related to my dad,” Hao Ren said.

Then, he walked to the balcony, put up an energy sphere, and turned the purple gold hairpin into a ship.

Zhao Hongyu had never seen this dharma treasure before, but she couldn’t ask Hao Ren now since he was going back home.

Zhao Yanzi stood up and looked at Hao Ren as he flew away from the balcony.

Zhao Hongyu stayed in the room, stared at Zhao Yanzi’s red face, and asked, “Zi, be honest! What did you guys do just now?”

“No! Nothing!” Zhao Yanzi blew up her cheek and denied.

She still pretended that she didn’t like Hao Ren. Wouldn’t she lose face if it were revealed that she took the initiative and kissed Hao Ren?

Besides, she felt like she shouldn’t let her parents know this type of things either…

Zhao Hongyu shook her head and smiled when Zhao Yanzi didn’t say anything. From Zhao Yanzi’s eyes, it was evident that she had Hao Ren on her mind.

“Not sure if liking someone as a Grade Nine student is a good thing or a bad thing….” Zhao Hongyu thought as she patted Zhao Yanzi’s head. “You’re in Grade Nine. Spend more time on your homework! You don’t need to worry about the dragon palace in the future. You just need to be a good wife, and you can’t do so without having a lot of knowledge!”

“Mom, what are you talking about…” Zhao Yanzi touched her head with her hand quickly.

“Also, I’ll add 50 more chapters on top of the 100 chapters your dad assigned you!” Zhao Hongyu said.

“Ah, why is that?” Zhao Yanzi looked at Zhao Hongyu in surprise.

“No reason. The first 100 chapters are in exchange for a phone call of your dad. The later 50 chapters are for urging you to study harder.” After finishing speaking, Zhao Hongyu left the plate of cantaloupes on Zhao Yanzi’s table and walked out of her bedroom.

She had to copy 100 chapters out of Guwen Guanzhi for Hao Ren, and she also let Hao Ren kiss her. Suddenly, she felt frustrated and thought that she lost in many aspects.

At this time, Hao Ren stepped on the ship, flew in the sky, and headed toward the beach.

The heat on his face faded after the cold breeze blew on him.

Thinking of that scene, Hao Ren felt slightly dazzled. He once believed that the warm and loving feeling wouldn’t occur between Zhao Yanzi and himself, but that kind of feeling appeared. It was not because of Zhao Yanzi’s beauty; Hao Ren would even feel relaxed when Zhao Yanzi leaned on him with her back casually.

Hao Ren exhaled and couldn’t concentrate, and the ship became a bit unstable as well.

The speed of the purple gold hairpin was close to the speed of a Soul Formation Realm cultivator. In the blink of an eye, Hao Ren returned to his home.

After taking out the key and opening the door, he saw Xie Yujia, Lu Linlin, and Lu Lili all in the living room.

“Gongzi!” Seeing Hao Ren’s return, the Lu sisters who were watching TV with Xie Yujia rushed to him immediately.

They took out slippers quickly, put them in front of Hao Ren, and gave him a cup of hot milk tea. They were simply the best maids!

“You still know that you should come back?” Hao Zhonghua said as he flipped through some papers in the living room

Hao Ren looked at his dad and knew that he had to come back today.

Yue Yang sat beside Hao Zhonghua and seemed helpless when she looked at Hao Ren.

When Hao Ren fought in front of LingZhao Middle School, she could analyze it for Hao Zhonghua and say that Hao Ren had to protect Zhao Yanzi. Yet, Hao Zhonghua saw this fight in the cafeteria with his own eyes. She didn’t know how to defend Hao Ren.

“Uncle, that’s not what happened.” Xie Yujia turned off the TV and said in a hurry.

She came home and made a fancy dinner to smooth away Hao Zhonghua’s displeasure. She also wanted to explain the cause of the incident during dinner.

However, Hao Zhonghua didn’t want to listen to Xie Yujia’s explanation and had to question Hao Ren face to face.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili saw Hao Zhonghua’s attitude and didn’t dare to speak anymore. In their minds, such a punishment from the school was too insignificant.

“Don’t speak for him, Yujia. I want to hear him explain himself.” Hao Zhonghua waved his hand and stared at Hao Ren.

“There’s not much to say. I went to help when the soccer team attacked my roommate,” Hao Ren said as his lips twitched a little.

“According to you, engaging in a fight is the correct thing to do?” Hao Zhonghua got mad again.

Yue Yang glanced over a few times to hint at Hao Ren, telling him to admit his mistake temporarily.

She thought that fighting was a normal thing for guys, and not everyone could be like Hao Zhonghua, who could control himself strictly and be respected by hundreds of thousands of people.

It was not necessarily a bad thing that Hao Ren had the courage to fight; at least he would be brave enough to protect his family in the future; this was Yue Yang’s logic.

Seeing Hao Ren remaining silent, Hao Zhonghua nodded and said, “Your attitude doesn’t seem sincere. How about this? There will be a punishment not only from the school but also from the family!”

Hearing Hao Zhonghua says this, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili both widened their eyes and tried to persuade him, “Uncle!”

They thought Hao Zhonghua would just scold Hao Ren for a bit, but they didn’t expect that Hao Ren would be punished at home!

“I heard that you founded the Calligraphy Club at school, and it is not small either, right?” Hao Zhonghua took out a bag and continued, “You’ve become a capable person! I didn’t know that you can write calligraphy before! Here are some paper, ink, inkstone, and the Thousand Character Classic 1 . You can choose any font you want, but you have to copy them ten times! You are not allowed to go to bed before you finish!”

Hao Zhonghua threw the bag on the table, turned around, and walked toward the second floor.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili patted their chests and sighed in relief. They thought Hao Zhonghua was about to beat Hao Ren, but it was just copying scriptures…

“Linlin, Lili, and Yujia; none of you are allowed to help him!” Hao Zhonghua said on the staircase.

The Lu sisters, who were just thinking of copying for Hao Ren, got caught and could only say yes.

At the same time, East Ocean University’s Principal who was having a conference in Beijing received a phone call in his hotel room.

“Oh… Mr. Zhao, how may I help you?”

“I have a nephew whose studying in the Mechatronic Engineering Program. He got into some conflicts with other students and got probation as punishment. I would like to ask about this incident.”

“I’ve been attending conferences in Beijing these last few days. I am not quite sure about this incident. However, probation seems to be a little too much. What’s the student’s name, and who did he fight with?”

Since Zhao Guang gave him a call, the Principal of East Ocean University had to ask all the details and didn’t dare to deal with it casually.

Dididi!

Another number appeared on the Principal’s cell phone. He lowered his head and saw that it was from Hao Zhonghua.

“What’s happening…” The Principal started to sweat.
