Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 154 - The Fool

Chapter 154: Chapter 154 The Fool Chapter 154 -154 The Fool “Alright then! So I’ll tell you, there is…”

Big Bull was just about to say that there were a few children on his back when someone stomped hard on his foot mid-sentence, causing him such pain that he clutched his foot and began hopping intensely, “Ah…! Pain… Pain… It’s killing me.”

Old Money Mo was listening intently when suddenly Big Bull burst into loud cries of pain. As he turned his head, he saw Xuexue, who had run back for some reason unknown to him. She looked angrily at Big Bull as he hopped on one foot and furiously said, “Just now you said my eyes were cramping. Let me tell you, I’m very angry, and there will be serious consequences, Humph!”

Having said that, she turned and walked away, looking genuinely upset.

“Wife, wife, I didn’t do it on purpose, don’t be angry.” Big Bull, no longer minding the pain in his foot, hurried after her.

Everything happened so quickly that Old Money Mo was stunned, staring blankly as Big Bull’s figure ran farther and farther away, gradually disappearing.

“Old Master, they have left, are we still going out?” The person who looked like a steward stepped forward and asked.

“Sigh! Forget it, forget it.” Old Money Mo was in turmoil, in no mood to go out anymore.

The secret he had hidden for over a decade was exposed by a word from Big Bull. He thought that the deed he had done years ago was safely concealed from heaven and earth, that no one would ever know what shameful act he had committed. Little did he know, the retribution had already arrived; it was just that he himself was unaware. No wonder his back had hunched overnight more than a decade ago and remained so for many years since. Despite having seen countless famous doctors, none could help. From Big Bull’s simple words, he had begun to guess what was really happening.

“Old Master, your health is getting worse. It might be better to see a doctor,” the steward suggested with concern.

“You don’t understand, this sickness of mine is not something a doctor can cure,” Old Money Mo said with a gloomy face, slowly turning around and swaying back into the mansion.

“Wife, wife, wait for me.”

Big Bull chased desperately behind her, and upon reaching the mountain side, finally caught up with Xuexue. Panting heavily, he said, “Wife, don’t be mad at me; I didn’t mean to say that about you.”

To his surprise, Xuexue turned around with a smile brimming on her face, “You’re such a fool, I’m not angry at all. I was just leading you here on purpose because you talked too much with Old Money Mo.”

“Oh, so you weren’t really angry, you tricked me, huh?” Although Big Bull wasn’t the sharpest, seeing Xuexue’s beaming smile, he immediately understood.

“Yep! I’m telling you, from now on you’re not allowed to tell him about the children on his back,” Xuexue said seriously.

“Why not?”

“This…”

How could she tell him that the children were ghosts? That would surely scare Big Bull to death. Remembering how she had scared him half to death the night she came out of the space, Xuexue dared not reveal to him that the children were ghosts.

Unable to think of a way to deceive him on the spot, she could only pretend to be angry and say, “Just don’t tell anyone, okay? If you see them, you must pretend you didn’t. Understand? Otherwise, I’ll get angry and won’t talk to you ever again.”

“Oh! Wife, please don’t be angry, I’ll keep silent,” Big Bull replied, genuinely afraid that Xuexue would ignore him. He didn’t understand why, but he always felt terrible whenever Xuexue didn’t pay attention to him.

Having promised not to tell, Xuexue was happy. She acted this way to protect him, for he was so naively innocent, unaware of the wickedness of people’s hearts.

The two gathered a lot of wild vegetables and picked wild fruits along the mountainside, and only when the evening grew dark did they return home joyfully.

“Wife, the mountainside is so fun, with fruits to pick. Shall we bring Chuner along tomorrow? Would that be alright?” Big Bull said cheerfully, holding a wild fruit in his hand.

“Sure! There are a few wild fruits left in the basket, let’s take them back for mother and Chuner to try.”
