The whole family is insanely eavesdropping on my thoughts Chapter 614
Chapter 614: Grasping Power
Shan Shan sat cross-legged on the ground, a thick stack of homework resting on his lap.
The densely packed characters represented Lu Chao Chao’s countless nights of burning the midnight oil.
With a smug grin, he stuck out his tongue at the sleeping Lu Chao Chao.
Then…
One page after another, he tore them to shreds. He even tossed them into the air, letting them flutter down like snowflakes.
The more he ripped, the more exhilarated he felt. The more he destroyed, the more a surge of delight welled up within him.
He relished this sensation—the thrill of doing as he pleased, the intoxicating rush of power in his grasp.
With a wide grin, he lay back amidst the sea of torn white paper, utterly content.
Once his anger was fully vented, he leisurely cast a glance at Lu Chao Chao before curling up in the wet nurse’s arms. His long, thick lashes quivered slightly, but his eyes never opened. Nestled in the embrace, he drifted into a deep slumber.
A faint smile lingered at the corner of his lips.
Deep within the desert, a man clad in a black cloak lay prostrate upon the ground. “Master, relish the ecstasy of slaughter, revel in the freedom of doing as you wish.”
Perhaps, somewhere in the mortal world, a massacre was already underway.
The next morning.
“AHHHHHHH!!!”
A piercing scream shattered the tranquility of the ruined temple. In an instant, Windchaser and Zhu Mo materialized in front of Lu Chao Chao, their expressions grave. Watching as Lu Chao Chao jumped and howled in sheer agony, their ears nearly bled from the shrillness of her voice.
“Who?! Who did this!! Ahhh, my painstakingly completed homework!!” Lu Chao Chao’s hair was in disarray as she cradled the shredded paper in her hands. Tears poured down her face as she wailed.
“Which heartless wretch?! If you have a grudge, come at me directly! Why would you take it out on my homework?!” She frantically gathered the scraps to her chest.
But the pages had been torn too finely. When she scooped up a handful, each piece was no bigger than a fingertip.
The air was filled with fragments of her hard work.
Oh, heavens…
Everyone had been startled awake by her anguished cries.
Yu Shu and Yu Qin had thought some evil spirit was wreaking havoc and were prepared to launch an attack.
But upon closer inspection—
Their young mistress’ homework had been torn to pieces.
Ah…
Watching her sit there in the pile of scraps, snot and tears streaming as she voiced her grievances, they found the sight quite amusing.
Yet, none dared to laugh aloud.
“How is this possible? I kept watch outside the door all night, and no one approached the temple!” Windchaser, gripping his sword, frowned deeply. Someone had managed to commit this act right under his nose?
Besides, even if someone possessed the skill to bypass their defenses—
By all that was sacred, who would infiltrate their stronghold just to shred her homework?!
It was absurd!
Lu Chao Chao felt numb from the heartache. “Do you have any idea how hard I worked? Every day, I wrote until my eyes could barely stay open. This homework is my life!”
“They could have just killed me outright—why must they torment me like this?!”
“The despicable wretch! A vile fiend! Their entire family is nothing but beasts!” Clutching her hands into trembling fists, Lu Chao Chao attempted to divine the culprit’s identity—but, to her despair, she came up blank.
Shan Shan was startled awake by her wails.
Upon opening his eyes—oh, his dear sister was sobbing her heart out.
But he did not laugh.
His chubby little hands clamped tightly over his lips.
He had learned his lesson. Mocking her yesterday had earned him a beating.
Shan Shan remembered pain well.
He stared unblinkingly at Lu Chao Chao, watching her cry in helpless despair, her sorrow tinged with fury. The arrogance she had displayed yesterday was nowhere to be seen.
Shan Shan secretly curled his lips into a smirk, but quickly suppressed it, clamping his mouth shut once more.
Lu Chao Chao skipped breakfast, holding onto the shredded papers as she sobbed herself hoarse. Her vacant eyes grew unfocused, her entire being seeming to drift in and out of reality.
Shan Shan finished drinking his milk, then stared at his thick, pudgy hands in a daze.
A rush of exhilaration surged within him.
So, this was what it felt like to wield power.
He liked it.
From now on, for every page she wrote—he would tear one apart!
They were right. He really could do whatever he wanted!!
