Chapter 187
Buyan, despite feeling indifferent about life, still dutifully walked towards the two of them.
In the next second, Buyan grabbed Zong Jincheng with one hand and Pang Jing with the other, using brute force to separate the two boys who were fighting.
"Who the hell are you? Don't pull me! Do you know who I am? I'm Pang Jing! Pang Jing!"
"Buyan, you should just pull him! Why are you pulling me? Don't drag me!" Little Demon King wailed, kicking his legs and unable to come down from midair.
"Somebody, come here!"
"Put me down, put me down!"
Buyan's expression remained impassive as he handed Pang Jing over to the rushing servants of the Pang household, then turned to place Little Demon King on the ground. The young boy glared at him, filled with humiliation and anger.
Buyan reminded them mechanically, "Two young masters, please do not fight inside the palace. It may bring negative consequences to both of your families."
Pang Jing roared, "Mind your own business!"
Little Demon King was not to be outdone and retorted, "If it's not inside the palace, then outside it is! You all together couldn't beat Buyan."
Buyan: "!"
Here we go again.
You challenge each other, and I have to step in!
Buyan felt his head spin from the young master's antics.
Fortunately, the commotion of their argument was loud enough that other onlookers had already reported it. When Xu Wan and the Old Marchioness arrived, they immediately saw Little Demon King, 'using Buyan's presence to deliver threats.'
Madam Pang, Pang Jing's mother, also arrived and inquired about what had happened.
Xu Wan listened to Cui Zhi recount the entire incident and glanced at Little Demon King, commenting, "Buyan did well. This fight could not happen."
After the Pang family dispersed, the Old Marchioness deliberately stated in front of Little Demon King, "Wan, you've just declined Madam Pang for Jincheng, she must bear a grudge now."
Xu Wan replied with a smile, "Old Marchioness, do you think I did wrong?"
The Old Marchioness shook her head and said, "You did the right thing, Wan. Jincheng has you as a mother backing him up; I'm very assured."
"That's what I should do." After Xu Wan finished, she turned around and saw the children still behind her. She raised an eyebrow and said, "Why are you all still standing here? Go and play."
Little Demon King didn't leave; instead, he mumbled with embarrassment, "I thought you were going to agree with her just now."
If Xu Wan really had his elder brother take off the clothes and give it to Pang Jing, he would have gone on a rampage right then and there, never wanting to talk to her ever again.
Xu Wan snorted and said, "Judgement and thought are one's own. The things are yours; how could I overstep you and give away the outfit?"
"Good, you understood that at least." As Little Demon King spoke, the corners of his mouth slowly lifted upward.
Wei Xinglu and He Zheng were utterly puzzled.
What's Little Demon King doing here? Doesn't he have a disfigured enmity with his matriarch? Why is there suddenly a smile playing on his lips?
It must be due to looking at too many lanterns, resulting in the eyes playing tricks on him.
Just when both were still thinking that, the next second, they saw Little Demon King extending his little finger and offering it to Xu Wan.
Xu Wan glanced at him, "What is it?"
Little Demon King, his neck turning red, said, "I've considered it. Let's hook our fingers, truce?"
Since his matriarch has this extent of protection for him, then being a son, he decided not to hide guiding anything anymore.
He decided not to oppose her anymore.
Xu Wan snickered, "Nonsensical, finger-hooking." Yet she still extended her little finger and hooked it with him.
Little Demon King was so exhilarated that his eyes were almost disappearing. To conceal his fast redness advancing to his face, he quickly shouted, "Then we're off to play! C'mon brothers, let's shine tonight at the court banquet!"
