BXBX NOVEL Chapter 878: The Little Witch's Partiality
The Little Witch put her hands on her hips and shouted aggressively, “If you bully my little brother, I will call you geezer!”
“Wicked girl, you’re helping an outsider deal with your grandpa? Do you want a beating?”
The Little Witch shouted fearlessly, “If you dare to touch even my little finger, I will tell grandma that you were drunk and harassed the female teachers of the academy…”
“I… well, my good granddaughter, I’m just joking with you. Don’t say bad things about me in front of your grandma…”
These words seemed to have hit Luo Dongqing’s weak spot. He suddenly became like a deflated ball, with no momentum at all. A flattering smile appeared on his face, which was previously very serious.
Seeing this, Qin Haodong almost choked on his own saliva. The geezer was so interesting. He was so scared of his granddaughter and it seemed that he was also a hen-pecked husband.
The Little Witch raised her chin like a proud pullet. She turned to Qin Haodong and said, “Little brother, if the geezer bullies you later, you can come to me. I’ll help you vent your anger!”
Luo Dongqing was so angry. He looked up at the sky and sighed. “Alas, my granddaughter is partial to an outsider. Her heart is not what it used to be…”
Qin Haodong patted the Little Witch’s head and said to Luo Dongqing, “Director Luo, in fact, you don’t have to beat around the bush. You just want two more bottles of wine from me, don’t you?”
Luo Dongqing said embarrassedly, “How did you know?”
“It’s easy to guess. I’m the victim in this case. If you wanted to punish me, you can do it there. Why take me to your office?”
“Young man, you’re smart. You deserve to be the person my granddaughter likes,” Luo Dongqing immediately smiled and said, “Since you know it, give me two bottles of wine.”
“To tell you the truth, after drinking your wine last time, the other wines I drank were like ice water. No taste at all. I’ve been craving your wine these days!”
Qin Haodong said, “I do have wine but I can’t give it to you for free.”
“I know! Got it! 10 top-level Spirit Stones per bottle. I’ll give you the money now.”
Thinking of the taste of the two bottles of Maotai wine, Luo Dongqing couldn’t help drooling in anticipation. He reached out and grabbed a handful of top-level Spirit Stones from his Storage Ring and put them in front of Qin Haodong.
Qin Haodong said, “Director Luo, it’s not about money. My wine is limited. I will not sell it off so casually.”
Luo Dongqing understood the hidden meaning in his words. He immediately patted his chest and said: “Young man, if you have any conditions, just say them. I will definitely agree for my granddaughter’s sake.”
The Little Witch snorted and said unconvincedly, “Little brother, since the geezer is doing this for my sake, you don’t have to give him the wine.”
Luo Dongqing instantly looked miserable. He said in annoyance, “You wicked girl, why don’t you put in a few good words for your grandpa?”
“Why should I help you?”
“I’m your grandpa. Can’t you tell who is closest to you?”
“Of course! My little brother is closest to me!” the Little Witch held Qin Haodong’s arm and said proudly.
“You…”
Luo Dongqing was so angry that his beard fluttered in the air, but he couldn’t do anything to his granddaughter.
Qin Haodong said, “Well, Director Luo, let’s talk about the conditions. As long as you agree to my conditions, I promise you will soon be able to drink good wine.”
“Tell me! Quickly! As long as I can drink good wine, I will promise you anything,” Luo Dongqing said anxiously.
“We’re not to blame for what happened today. It’s Dong Zhenhai and his men who came to provoke us, so should my Junior Sister’s fine be returned to me?”
Luo Dongqing’s eyes widened and he said, “That’s 200 Spirit Stones. It can buy a car full of Ten Miles Fragrance wine.”
Qin Haodong said lightly, “Well, just take it as I didn’t say anything. You go and drink your Ten Miles Fragrance.”
“Uh…”
Luo Dongqing originally wanted to bargain. After seeing Qin Haodong’s attitude, he knew it seemed that this price was non-negotiable.
However, ever since he had drunk the Maotai wine, the Ten Miles Fragrance he drank truly tasted like water. There was no aroma of wine at all.
“Okay! Okay! I am afraid of you. Isn’t it just 200 Spirit Stones? Here you go.”
After Luo Dongqing said that, he slapped 200 top-level Spirit Stones in front of Qin Haodong and said, “Take out the wine quickly.”
Qin Haodong took the Spirit Stones and said happily, “I haven’t finished citing my conditions yet. How can I give you the wine now?”
Luo Dongqing glared at him and said, “Brat, don’t go too far. I’ve already returned the Spirit Stones to you.”
The Little Witch immediately slapped the table and shouted: “Geezer, don’t yell at my little brother!”
Luo Dongqing’s expression froze and he shouted angrily, “You are partial to him! Really! I’m so angry!”
Qin Haodong said, “Director Luo, before you turned up, I had discussed the price with Dong Zhenhai. He will compensate me with 200 top-level Spirit Stones. You ruined my deal, shouldn’t you compensate me?”
Luo Dongqing angrily said, “Brat, are you blackmailing me now?”
Qin Haodong didn’t say anything. Instead, he took out a bottle of Drunkard Wine from his Storage Ring, opened it, and sniffed it hard. “It smells so good. It makes my whole body feel comfortable. I wonder what it’s like.”
As an old alcoholic who was addicted to wines, Luo Dongqing immediately smelled the fragrance of Drunkard Wine and swallowed his saliva desperately.
“Brat, I’m really afraid of you. I’ll give you another two hundred top-level Spirit Stones. Hurry up and give me this wine. I’m dying to drink it.”
Luo Dongqing took out 200 top-level Spirit Stones and threw them to Qin Haodong. Then he reached out to grab the bottle of Drunkard Wine.
Qin Haodong secretly laughed in his heart. What he lacked most now was the top-level Spirit Stones. It was not easy to catch a big boss, so he wanted to seize the opportunity to get more money.
With a thought, he put the bottle of wine back into his Storage Ring.
“Director Luo, I haven’t finished yet.”
“You’ve gone too far, boy. I’ve already given you 400 top-level Spirit Stones. What else do you want?”
“Director Luo, don’t be angry. Let’s talk about it,” Qin Haodong said with a smile, “today, each of people was fined 200 top-level Spirit Stones, which is more than 2,000 Spirit Stones. Shouldn’t I be rewarded for it?”
Luo Dongqing said angrily, “What does that have to do with you?”
Qin Haodong said matter-of-factly, “Of course! If it weren’t for me, they wouldn’t have broken the rules of the academy. If they hadn’t broken the rules, you wouldn’t get the money.”
“What my Little Brother said is right. Give him some money quickly!”
The Little Witch immediately stood on Qin Haodong’s side.
“Wicked girl, do you believe that I will drive both of you out of the Tortoise Academy?”
The Little Witch shouted back without showing any signs of fear, “Geezer, do you believe that I will tell grandma that? Then you will never be able to go home!”
This time, Luo Dongqing wasn’t frightened. He rolled his eyes and said: “Wicked girl, believe it or not, I’ll tell your grandma you are in puppy love.”
“Puppy love?”
The Little Witch sneered and said, “I’m not afraid at all. Grandma was always afraid that I can’t get married. If I have a boyfriend, she will be happy.”
Qin Haodong finally understood that the master in their family was the grandma whom he had never met. Both the Little Witch and Luo Dongqing were very afraid of that person.
Luo Dongqing gasped for breath, but in the end, he gave in again and said, “Boy, this is my last compromise. I’ll give you 600 top-level Spirit Stones. If you continue to be greedy, I will turn hostile.”
Then he threw 600 top-level Spirit Stones to Qin Haodong.
Qin Haodong took the money and said happily, “Thank you! This is for you.”
After that, he took out a whole box of Drunkard Wine from the Storage Ring and put it on the desk in front of him.
Luo Dongqing couldn’t wait to grab the bottle that had just been opened. He drank half of it in one go before beaming and shouting, “Good wine! Really good wine!!”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Director Luo, after you finish the lot, you are welcome to buy more wine from me.”
“Brat, who can afford to drink your wine?”
Luo Dongqing seemed to think of something and smiled. He looked at him and said: “Brat, are you courting my granddaughter? As long as you can take out 100, no… 200 bottles of this wine as a betrothal gift, I will agree.”
“Geezer, how dare you exchange me for wine!” the Little Witch said angrily, “Besides, when was it your turn to be the master in our family?”
Luo Dongqing’s expression froze. He embarrassedly said, “Even if your grandma makes the decision, I still can give some advice to your grandma.”
“It’s useless to ask for your opinion,” the Little Witch took Qin Haodong’s arm and said, “Little brother, let’s go! Ignore this geezer.”
After that, the two of them left the Director’s Office together. Luo Dongqing was so angry that his eyes widened. But soon he grabbed the bottle and guzzled down the remaining half bottle of wine happily.
After going out, Qin Haodong said, “Thank you for your help.”
He knew very well that if it weren’t for the Little Witch, he wouldn’t have been able to get so many top-level Spirit Stones today. Luo Dongqing was the Stronger at the final stage of the Combination Realm. Once he got angry, he would be no match for him at all.
The Little Witch said with a smile, “Little brother, if you want to thank me, you should cook me more delicious food.”
Qin Haodong secretly laughed. The grandpa and granddaughter, one was an alcoholic and the other was a foodie. He didn’t know what kind of person the grandma was.
“No problem! This is for you!”
With that, Qin Haodong took out an ice-cream cone from his Storage Ring and handed it to the Little Witch. This was a snack that he had prepared for the little fellow so she could eat it at any time. Now it was Luo Hongying’s snack.
“What is that?” The Little Witch had never seen an ice-cream cone before. As she took a bite of it, she felt a refreshing sweetness in her mouth.
“Thank you, little brother. It’s so delicious.”
The Little Witch was so excited that she kissed Qin Haodong on the face.
Qin Haodong wiped the ice cream off his face. He said with a smile, “This is an ice-cream cone. Is it delicious?”
“Yes, truly delicious. Never have I eaten something so delectable before.”
After saying that, the Little Witch began to gulp it down quickly.
Qin Haodong asked, “Is your grandma very powerful? Your grandpa seems to be afraid of your grandma.”
“Of course! That was because he made a mistake. Grandma still hasn’t forgiven him!”
Qin Haodong suddenly became curious. He asked, “I think Director Luo is a good person. How could he make mistakes?”
While eating the ice cream, the Little Witch said, “It’s all because of wine. Ten years ago, he once drank too much. Somehow, he ended up in a female teacher’s bed and was caught by my grandma.”
“Since then, my grandma kicked him out of the house and never let him go home.”
Qin Haodong didn’t expect that Luo Dongqing would have such a romantic history. He asked, “I don’t think your grandpa was that kind of person. How could he make such a mistake? Your grandma is really that cruel and hasn’t forgiven him for ten years.”
