At the same time, Chu Jin did not forget to remind her in a low voice. “Mother, there are outsiders here. You can’t get angry. You have to remain calm.”
Ye Muyu’s expression changed. She did not know what to say to this child.
As expected of him. Even at this moment, he still did not forget to save face.
However, Luo Qisheng was still an important outsider. Since she was entertaining him, she could not urge him to leave after eating.
Ye Muyu could only endure it for the time being.
She tapped the table lightly and deliberately put on a fierce look. “Let’s eat first.
Come to the study after dinner!”
Chu Jin’s face was full of pleading.
Chu Ziluo could only sympathize with him. She reminded him, “Brother, remember to tell me the truth later. Otherwise, if you make Mother angry,
Father will not let you off easily.”
“Mother…” Chu Jin wanted to cry out in pain, but Ye Muyu glared at him.
He quickly shut up and sniffed aggrievedly. He felt that the meal was not delicious anymore.
Fifteen minutes later, Zhang Shu sent Luo Qisheng and Luo Xiaoqi off.
In the study room, Ye Muyu held a ruler in her hand.
She decided that she would keep an eye Chu Jin more in the future. He was much bolder than she had imagined. Reality told her that her previous attitude of letting him go was wrong.
“Mother, I was wrong.” Looking at the ruler, Chu Jin was filled with regret and did not forget to wail.
Ye Muyu would not be fooled by his fake crying. Her voice was very gentle. She smiled and said, “Come, I’ll hit your palms ten times first. This is for selling the bracelet that Mother gave you. It’s your punishment for not telling Mother.”
“Mother, ten is a lot.” Chu Jin quickly pounced over and hugged Ye Muyu’s thigh, begging for mercy.
Ye Muyu was still smiling. “Ziluo, come here. Make your brother stand firm.”
“Okay, Mother.” Chu Ziluo also felt that her brother was stupid enough to tell their mother about it this time. It seemed that he would not be able to escape this lesson. Her mother would not usually get angry, but if she was angry, even her father’s words would not work. ‘So little brother, you better pray for yourself.’
Chu Ziluo looked at Chu Jin with pity.
Then, she pulled him back to his original position and opened his palm. Ye Muyu did not miss a single hit. There were ten of them. It just hurt a little, but it was not too heavy.
“Alright, now tell me, why did you sell that bracelet?” Ye Muyu sat on the chair beside her while Chu Jin stood pitifully in front of her.
His palm was slightly red, but it was not that serious.
Chu Jin resisted the urge to cry, afraid of losing face. “Mother, Wu Huzi took the initiative to buy it from me. A few days ago… Oh, no, actually, a month ago, I wore the bracelet over and he saw it. Coincidentally, the test results were released on the same day, so I casually said that I would definitely pass the test with it, and he pestered me to buy it.” “I think he really wants to buy it.”
“Hmm?” Ye Muyu snorted and glanced at him.
Chu Jin’s small body trembled, and his mouth opened and closed. He stuttered a few words before saying, “Mother… Mother, I was wrong. I’m not good with words. Actually, it’s me. I can’t stand seeing him pitiful.”
“So I agreed.”
“He went back to get the money.”
” I didn’t accept it directly. I exchanged it with Wu Huzi in front of Mrs. Wu,” Chu Jin said.
“Does Mrs. Wu really know about this?” Ye Muyu asked doubtfully..
