“Little Young Master Yuan Yuan, do you really not need to change your clothes?”
On the way to the banquet, Li Cheng asked Feng Yuan again.
Normally, when attending a banquet, one would wear an outfit more suitable for the occasion.
It wasn’t that Li Cheng looked down on what his little young master was wearing now. He was only worried that at the banquet, because of the little young master’s clothing, the other children might neglect or ignore him.
Feng Yuan sat in the back seat and shook his head: “Not changing.”
He liked the green clothes he was wearing.
Since Li Cheng’s suggestion wasn’t accepted, he didn’t continue persuading.
Very soon.
The car sped all the way to the banquet venue.
Li Cheng wanted to accompany Feng Yuan inside.
Feng Yuan glanced at him, then nodded: “Alright.”
The one big and one small entered smoothly.
Although Li Cheng was only the Li family’s butler and most of the time usually only worked inside the Li household, because of the Li family’s matters, he also often had to show up outside.
Even though he didn’t appear publicly very often, there were still people who could recognize him.
Besides, he had come with an admission ticket.
Around Feng Yuan’s neck, what hung most prominently was a small translator device.
The small translator had a voice function.
When it picked up foreign languages, the translator would automatically translate and play them in Chinese.
With this small translator, Feng Yuan had so far never run into a problem of not understanding the language.
Because his own speech could also be converted into other languages.
Feng Yuan had come out in a hurry and hadn’t eaten dinner.
As soon as Li Cheng came in, he went to get food for him.
At this time, everything was arranged on a long table. Above the long table hung exquisite, expensive crystal lamps.
Everything here was indeed arranged like a dream, like an illusion.
Li Cheng had no interest in this kind of occasion.
While holding the food, he kept an eye on the little young master who was already moving about freely not far away.
There were also many other children at the banquet.
Li Cheng did not plan to interfere with the little young master’s socializing.
But Feng Yuan, whom Li Cheng thought had gone to make friends, was definitely not going to make friends when he approached the other children at this moment.
He was asking the blond, blue-eyed child in front of him: “Hello, excuse me. I want to ask, do you know where Ruskin is?”
Ruskin. That was the scumbag’s name.
Feng Yuan’s polite question, in how it sounded, was flawless.
But after he finished asking, he didn’t get a response.
The few children in front of him, dressed in splendid princess gowns and little gentleman suits, swept their eyes over him from head to toe with an expression of extreme arrogance.
“Rude country bumpkin.”
From the small translator came these children’s words, right on time.
“How did you get in? Perhaps you’re a child brought in by some servant?”
“Oh God, look at his shoes.”
The mocking and commenting, all through the small translator, were completely understood by Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan even lowered his head to look at his own little shoes.
The children at the banquet were all wearing little leather shoes, but he wasn’t.
He was wearing a pair of glowing sandals with Ultraman designs on them.
These sandals were very popular when he wore them to kindergarten.
Many children in the kindergarten, after seeing his sandals, had their families buy them a pair, too.
Now, this pair of sandals that had once been all the rage at Little Sun Kindergarten was being blatantly discriminated against.
Feng Yuan was unhappy.
He stomped hard on his own sandals. With the forceful step, the sandals lit up in a burst of colorful lights.
“Country bumpkin!”
Feng Yuan threw the mocking words they had used on him right back: “Your shoes don’t even light up. Hmph, my shoes are way better than yours!”
Feng Yuan’s words were also translated out loud by the little translator.
He no longer expected those arrogant children to answer his question.
After talking back, he turned his head, about to leave.
But behind him, a boy in a proper suit called out: “Stop! You still haven’t said, why are you looking for Ruskin? He’s my older brother.”
The moment Feng Yuan heard that Ruskin’s younger brother was here, he immediately stopped in his tracks.
He turned his small body back around, deciding to give these annoying brats one more chance.
“Where is your older brother?”
Feng Yuan added, “I have something important to see him about.”
Beating up the scumbag was a very important matter!
“What important matter? You can tell me.”
“No, I’ll only tell him.”
Feng Yuan insisted on meeting the scumbag. The boy in the suit narrowed his eyes at him, a trace of malice flashing beneath them.
“I can take you to find him, but first, you have to play a game with us for a while.”
“What game?”
“Soccer game. We can play ball together.”
Feng Yuan: “Alright.”
Feng Yuan had played ball before. At home, he had a little rubber ball and also a little soccer ball.
Both kinds of balls, he knew how to play with!
“Come with me!”
The venue for this banquet was very large. It even had a soccer field.
A group of well-dressed children quickly changed into sports clothes inside the lounge.
While they were changing clothes, Feng Yuan was caught up to by Li Cheng, who came over to feed him.
Li Cheng hurriedly stuffed the food on the plate into Feng Yuan’s mouth, racing against time.
He hadn’t heard Feng Yuan’s conversation with those children.
He only knew that Feng Yuan was going to play soccer with them.
That looked pretty good.
Li Cheng was sincerely happy that his little young master could gain some social interaction.
“Young Master, only if you eat your fill will you have the strength to play.”
Li Cheng fed his little young master. Seeing the little young master eat mouthful after mouthful, his eyes were filled with satisfaction.
He had been in the Li family for so long. This was the first time he truly felt the cuteness of a little cub.
Of course, here he didn’t mean to compare by putting down Young Master Li Wang or Young Miss Li Si.
Li Wang and Li Si, he treated them with equal respect as well.
It was just that those two little masters were more independent and self-reliant, completely not needing his close care.
But Little Young Master Yuan Yuan was an adorable little cub who loved being close to people. It was obvious.
After finishing a plate of food, Li Cheng didn’t dare let him eat too much.
Because if he ate too full, it wouldn’t be suitable for him to exercise right away.
“Alright, Little Young Master, let’s change into shoes for playing ball. We won’t change your clothes, is that okay?”
Li Cheng was very attentive in taking care of the cub.
Although Feng Yuan had insisted when leaving home that he wouldn’t change clothes or shoes, Li Cheng had still prepared several sets of clothes and shoes for the trip.
Now, these shoes could finally come in handy.
Feng Yuan’s new clothes, new shoes, and many other daily necessities had all been prepared earlier in the day.
“Okay, Yuan Yuan will change shoes.”
Feng Yuan took off his beloved sandals and changed into a new pair of shoes.
Once his new shoes were on, the children who had gone to change clothes just now had also arrived at the field.
Feng Yuan didn’t waste any more time. He moved his little short legs and jogged onto the field.
As soon as he got there, he was met with another wave of mockery.
“So you really are a servant’s child. That person feeding you just now must have been your servant father.”
These children didn’t know Li Cheng.
They only saw him wearing the uniform that clearly marked the identity of a butler. But as for whose butler he was, they had no idea.
Anyway, there was no way he could be the butler of this little country bumpkin.
The little country bumpkin and that man must surely be relatives.
The group of arrogant children, who had already made their judgment about Feng Yuan, stepped on the ball underfoot and told him the new rules.
They would not split into two teams.
They would all play freely. Whoever managed to kick the ball into the net would earn a point.
The one with the most points would have the right to make a demand of the one with the fewest points.
No matter how harsh that demand was, the other had to fulfill it.
Feng Yuan played soccer very well.
In the Green Leaf Class, he was the best cub at playing ball.
“Alright.”
Feng Yuan agreed to the rules and didn’t forget to remind them: “After we finish playing, you still have to tell me where Ruskin is.”
“I will.”
A group of children in the field got ready and started to play.
But one child didn’t go down to the field. He was holding a phone, recording.
As he filmed, he laughed loudly.
“Look, our new toy! A little country bumpkin from the East.”
That boy wasn’t just recording a video. He was live-streaming the scene on the soccer field.
At this moment, on the field.
Feng Yuan was being targeted.
According to the rules, they should have been normally fighting for the ball and kicking it. But on the field, except for him, no one was following them.
After grabbing the ball, instead of kicking it into the net, they kicked the ball at him.
“Hahaha, Boris is awesome. He hit him again!”
“Looks like our toy this time is really tough!”
Exaggerated laughter rang out both on and off the field at the same time.
Li Cheng’s face completely changed.
The moment Feng Yuan was hit the first time, he stepped forward, coming right up close to the netting around the soccer field.
He wasn’t sure at first whether these children really harbored malice.
But within less than a minute after he came over, with a face dark as iron, Li Cheng was certain.
These children were bullying his little young master.
“Stop!”
Li Cheng’s face was full of anger as he went to open the gate in the netting to enter the field.
But the gate was locked from the inside.
Seeing his little young master being treated like a ball inside, the usually elegant and gentle Li Cheng had veins bulging on his forehead.
He strode to the side, picked up an iron rod someone had left there, and swung it hard at the gate of the enclosure.
The iron rod couldn’t break the gate open.
And the children inside noticed what he was doing.
One of them whistled at him.
A whistle of contempt and mockery, raised middle fingers, and an even harsher act of kicking the ball at Feng Yuan.
These arrogant and rampant children pushed Li Cheng’s fury to the absolute limit.
Li Cheng stared coldly at the children carrying out the violence. His long, bony right hand reached toward his lower back.
The next second.
“Bang—”
The deafening gunshot suddenly exploded outside the field.
The children who had been laughing instantly had their smiles frozen on their faces.
And while they were stunned, the little cub, who had been knocked down many times that his body and small face all dirty, suddenly kicked the ball he had snatched right into the net.
These bad kids had used the ball to kick at him.
But every ball kicked at him, he kicked into the net.
Now, he was the one with the most goals!
They had agreed that the game time would be half an hour, and now more than ten minutes had already passed.
Feng Yuan had scored many goals.
After securing his first-place position, without any hesitation, he also started kicking people.
Li Cheng’s gun had intimidated those children.
Abroad, guns were legal.
Taking advantage of the moment when those children were frozen in fear, Feng Yuan kicked the ball at Boris.
He kicked much more accurately than Boris did.
Boris was immediately struck by his ball.
Unfortunately, before he could kick a few more people, the situation outside the field had already turned chaotic.
A group of adults who heard the gunshot hurriedly rushed over.
They brought bodyguards with them.
Li Cheng, holding a gun, was extremely conspicuous.
The bodyguards did not recognize his face, but they recognized his gun.
In an instant, several gun barrels were aimed at him.
Some parents of the children in the field were furious.
“Arrest him! How dare he use a gun to threaten my child!”
“Catch him. I want to drag him to court!”
The angry parents only cared about protecting their own children.
At this moment, the children they were protecting finally found their backbone. They opened the enclosure, rushed out, and threw themselves toward their parents.
The boy who had been livestreaming just now also dropped offline.
After he dropped offline, a pretty little girl who was feeding a golden python raised her eyebrows.
“Boris, Benson, Bart…”
The little girl recited the names of those children she had seen from the livestream.
On her delicate doll-like face, though the corners of her lips curved upward, in her pair of deep-blue eyes was not the slightest trace of a smile.
She tossed the live chicken in her hand to the giant python.
Afterward, she turned around and gave instructions to the people following her: “I want to play ball. Help me invite some people.”
“Yes, Miss.”
On this side, the pretty little girl had made her request to play ball, while Feng Yuan, still at the banquet, had already stopped playing soccer.
Just like the other children who ran toward their parents, he also ran off the field.
He ran straight over to Li Cheng and hugged Li Cheng’s leg.
“Hug!”
Li Cheng bent down and lifted his little young master with one arm.
Looking at the little young master’s dirty face and the obvious bruises on his arm, heartache and anger swept away all of his rationality.
He had never relied on status to pressure others before.
But now, as he coldly watched the people surrounding him and the little young master, especially the parents of those children, his voice was icy and chilling: “You will pay the price for your actions!”
“Make it clear. The one who will pay the price is you! You dared to threaten my child with a gun. This is something I will never tolerate.”
The atmosphere on the scene was tense, ready to explode.
And Feng Yuan finally saw the host of the banquet, Ruskin, coming over to handle the situation.
Ruskin arrived with his fiancée. Originally, he had intended to give her a grand display of affection on the eve of their wedding.
Now, these children and that gunshot had, without a doubt, ruined his banquet.
He knew the parents of these children, and he also knew these children.
Except for Feng Yuan.
He didn’t know Feng Yuan.
So, in this conflict among the children, he naturally chose to let Feng Yuan bear the consequences.
He scolded Feng Yuan for provoking the other children.
Feng Yuan wasn’t surprised at his twisting of black and white.
After all, this scumbag’s character was rotten to the core in the first place.
“Uncle, put Yuan Yuan down.”
Feng Yuan got down from Li Cheng’s arms and walked straight toward Ruskin.
Ruskin didn’t take this little one to heart.
He only assumed the child had come to apologize.
“You should be apologizing most to these children you offended.”
Ruskin, with an air of superiority, began lecturing Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan tilted up his little face, his pair of round, jet-black eyes staring at him without a blink.
The gaze of the big one and the small one locked together just like that.
No one expected that this tiny, seemingly pure and adorable little cub would suddenly erupt.
The little cub picked up the iron rod Li Cheng had used.
Then, with that iron rod, he struck at Ruskin.
Ruskin was completely unprepared.
He was caught off guard.
The iron rod landed on him again and again. Feng Yuan almost used all the strength he had.
Cries of pain came out of Ruskin’s mouth as he fell to the ground in a wretched state, clutching an awkward and vulnerable spot.
Feng Yuan was so small that when he swung the iron rod, it just so happened to hit Ruskin’s most sensitive area.
No. That should be said as the area most sensitive for all men.
Ruskin was extremely handsome. Otherwise, Li Wei wouldn’t have chosen to be with him at first sight.
But no matter how handsome a man was, once his features twisted in pain, it was ugly.
Feng Yuan even snapped photos. Click, click.
He used his own smartwatch to take them!
These photos record Ruskin’s ugly state. He was going to bring it back to show his little aunt.
By then, the iron rod in Feng Yuan’s hand had already been snatched away.
And this little cub himself almost got kicked away.
But Li Cheng, who hadn’t shown the slightest fear even when facing guns, came over and scooped him up in time.
“I am the Li family’s butler, Li Cheng. What I’m holding is our Li family’s little young master.”
Looking at the bodyguards who had already pulled their safeties, Li Cheng firmly shielded the little cub in his arms while revealing his own identity.
In the face of the young master’s safety, keeping a low profile any longer would only be cowardice and stupidity.
Li Cheng hadn’t called Li Heng to come.
But a few minutes later, the bodyguards he had summoned took control of the whole scene.
So what if it was about calling reinforcements?
The Li family was never short of people.
The Li family’s well-trained bodyguards were not something that the ones here could compare to.
With the Li family’s bodyguards controlling the scene, the situation instantly reversed.
And while Li Cheng hadn’t called the old master, tattletale Feng Yuan was different.
As early as twenty minutes ago, Feng Yuan had already sent his location to Grandpa.
Counting the time, Grandpa should be arriving now!
Before Grandpa arrived, seeing his own side had gained the upper hand, Feng Yuan seized the time to give Ruskin a few more kicks.
“Scumbag, bad guy. I’m going to beat you to death!”
The furious Feng Yuan swung his chubby arms, hitting with all his strength.
He hit so hard that he lost his balance and even stumbled and fell.
Just as he had finished falling, Li Heng, who had come to pick up the cub, arrived at the scene.
Li Heng’s appearance left everyone present utterly stunned.
Some of them had even already called the police.
They had assumed Li Cheng belonged to some dark organization.
They absolutely didn’t believe that Li Cheng and the little cub Feng Yuan came from the Li family. This family is quite low-key, rarely showing itself in public.
One or two who did recognize Li Cheng, seeing the scene turn into such chaos, were happy to watch the commotion and simply stood by with amused smiles.
They knew Li Cheng would never suffer a loss.
But even those bystanders, when they saw the old master arrive, were also briefly taken aback.
“Grandpa!”
No matter what thoughts others were having, Feng Yuan, upon seeing his grandpa, was happy.
He got up from the ground and dashed straight over to his grandpa.
