Chapter 89: Chapter 89 The Situation Unfolds

No, under no circumstances can we let Xiaxia come out. If they run into each other and a conflict arises, we are all women plus a child on this side, while on the other side, there are a bunch of people who frequent the police station. If things get rowdy, we’ll definitely suffer losses.

Thinking quickly, she was about to step forward to talk to Bi Wu when her sleeve was suddenly tugged. Xia Shi paused and looked down.

She saw her youngest son standing beside her, his big, watery eyes full of worry. Similarly, Xia Shi could see her own anxiety reflected in Bi Yuan’s eyes.

Quickly gathering herself, she forced a smile, crouched down, and gently touched Bi Yuan’s little face, "Finished your homework?"

"Yes, all done," Bi Yuan nodded, "Brother taught me the parts I didn’t understand."

Xia Shi smiled with relief, "Yuanyuan is so good. Where is your brother?"

Bi Yuan glanced towards the inner room, "Brother got tired and fell asleep, so I didn’t want to disturb him and wake him up." Saying this, Bi Yuan made a shushing gesture with his round eyes, looking exceptionally cute.

Looking at her well-behaved and adorable son, Xia Shi’s previously gloomy mood brightened considerably, "Yes, Yuanyuan is really good."

"But..." Bi Yuan hesitated for a moment, head down, then looked up, "Mom, can you go out with Yuanyuan for a bit?"

"What’s the matter?"

Bi Yuan’s little face turned red as he shyly tugged on Xia Shi’s sleeve, "Brother’s birthday is coming up. I want to buy him a little gift to thank him for teaching me."

"Pfft—" The sound of Xiao Li’s laughter came from behind, and Xia Shi couldn’t help but laugh too. Upon seeing Bi Yuan’s head droop lower and lower, she stifled her laughter, turned to Xiao Li, and said, "Xiao Li, watch the shop for a bit; I’ll take Yuanyuan out for a while."

"Alright, go ahead, Sister Xia," Xiao Li readily agreed but then hesitated, "But those people..."

Xia Shi’s expression darkened instantly; she rubbed her head in resignation, "Forget it for today, let them eat, and they’ll be gone when they’re full."

With a serious look, she warned Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, you must remember this: do not let Xiaxia run into those people outside. If Xiaxia wants to come out, tell her it’s my order to stay inside and avoid any trouble."

Even the slowest person could understand something was wrong here, let alone Xiao Li, who had been working since she was young. So, Xiao Li nodded solemnly, "Don’t worry, Sister Xia, I understand."

Taking her wallet, Xia Shi uneasily went to the inner room again. Seeing the boy lying quietly on the bed, she couldn’t help but walk in, standing by the bed and watching for a moment, then gently caressed the boy’s cheek and covered him with a thin blanket before quietly leaving.

Listening to the low voices outside, then Xia Shi and Bi Yuan running into Bi Wu, the boy slowly opened his eyes, a storm brewing in his usually calm and indifferent gaze.

He turned and lay flat on the small bed, touching the warm cheek, and after a moment of silence, he let out a low chuckling sound.

Silly mom, you only know how to protect your daughter, but you forget that your daughter can now protect you...

[Hahaha, I didn’t expect Little Bun to figure it out and really get mom out of the way.] 007 laughed in the learning space.

’Hmm, my brother could never be as stupid as you,’ Bi Xia said lightly.

fluffed up, [Hey, hey, hey, Your Majesty! I am the most powerful male god system 007, incorporating the wisdom of the highest IQ scientists in the galaxy! How could I be stupid?!]

Listening to 007’s angry voice, Bi Xia’s expression remained calm as her lips curved slightly. She sprang up like a carp jumping out of water and walked towards the door.

At this time, Bi Wu saw only Xiao Li left at the front desk. He exchanged a glance with the people at his table, and they all stood up in unison, walking towards the front desk with tacit understanding.

"W-what are you doing?" Xiao Li saw four or five people walking towards her with malicious smiles, her heart skipped a beat, and she swallowed nervously.

"Step aside, it’s none of your business." Bi Wu walked behind the counter, grabbed Xiao Li without a word, and pulled her away from the front desk, "I’m borrowing my third mother’s money. You’re an outsider; you can’t interfere."

He then opened the drawer, reached in, and started taking the money. Meanwhile, the others were laughing and stuffing bottles of liquor into their bags from the counter.

"This is robbery!" Xiao Li shouted, stepping forward to stop Bi Wu, "I’ll call the police!"

"Get lost!" Bi Wu’s face changed, and he shoved Xiao Li hard, "I don’t hit women, so you better shut that mouth of yours!"

"What?! They owe my family money, so isn’t it only right for me to take their things?! If they dare, tell them to come find my dad!"

"You!" Xiao Li, pushed heavily by Bi Wu, staggered and hit the corner of a table, tears instantly streaming down her face from the pain.

"What are you going to do? Keep your nose out of this, you working girl, got it?!" Bi Wu stepped out from behind the counter, threatening Xiao Li.

"I..."

"Well, I should have the right to step into this mess."
