The man felt like he was in a terrible fix. He was already feeling irritable enough after going through the accounts, and now, his head pounded even harder when he heard the boy’s outburst.

Baby Chu, who was merely pretending to throw a tantrum, became completely frightened out of his wits when he noticed the uncle’s grim look through his tears. He started bawling raucously for real as he collapsed on the ground and rubbed his watery eyes with his meaty hands.

His cries, which sounded shrill and deafening in spite of him having a childish voice, seemed capable of shaking the world. Even the G.o.dfather himself was intimidated by them as he stared dumbly at the blubbering boy.

“Uwah… uwah… Uncle is a heartless meanie… uwah… A bully… Uncle bullied me…”

The kid, one by one, listed the adult’s ‘crimes’ while sobbing miserably!

“STOP CRYING!” barked Gu Jinglian while shooting the kiddo a ferocious glare. It backfired, though, for it frightened the latter even more and made him burst into yet another hysterical wail, which effectively cut off any other words the man had to say.

“WAH—”

His head was splitting, but he was utterly helpless against the boy. He resorted to threatening him this time. “Keep crying, and I’ll toss you into the pond to feed the fishes!”

“Wah… Uncle is going to toss me into the pond to feed the fishes… wah…”

As if he had committed some unforgivable sins against him, the boy cried harder than ever, which triggered the man’s desire to strangle him to death once and for all.

He had little patience for children, much less the ability to deal with them. Just hearing Baby Chu’s wails was enough to put him in a foul mood, but the fiercer he was toward the boy, the harder the latter cried. Tears just would not stop flowing from his red, swollen eyes as if he had turned on the waterworks.

Are there taps in his eyes?

Just where are all those tears coming from? There’s no end to them!

Having completely lost all of his patience by now, the man rose to his feet to leave.

Since this brat insists on sleeping in this room, he can have it to himself. I’ll leave and sleep in another room, instead!

In any case, I don’t have the patience to coax him.

However, the moment he stood up, Baby Chu, while sobbing, immediately moved to hug his legs and refused to let him go.

“P-Please don’t abandon me, uncle… Please don’t abandon me…”

The man remained aloof. “This is a warning: Let go.”

“Uncle… other than mommy, you’re the nicest person in this world to me. Do you also not want me…”

He was taken aback by the boy’s tearful, heartfelt declaration, and for a moment, he did not know how to respond to it.

“I’ve never had a father since birth, but you care and take care of me like one, so I swear to repay your kindness when I grow up. I’ll take care of you and send you off on your last journey when you grow old!”

Take care of me and send me off on my last journey when I grow old?

Is this brat cursing me?

“Do you not want me because I’m too troublesome…”

He answered bluntly, “That’s right.”

“…” That silenced the boy right away as he stared at him with his doe eyes.

“You’re a big nuisance.”

Baby Chu’s eyes turned watery once more. “Really? Am I really a nuisance…”

“Yes.”

“Woo…”

The boy’s heart shattered into pieces when he heard those hurtful words, and his raging howls instantly became sobs of misery.
