Chapter 130: Running Away

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Quietly opening her bedroom door, Jiang Qianxue saw no one in the corridor, so she immediately returned to her bedroom for her cell phone and selfie-stick, tiptoed out of the bedroom, and then gently closed the door.

Looking down the stairs, she saw her mother was on the phone, holding s...o...b..ll in her arms, and her father was sitting in the living room, reading a file with his gla.s.ses on. It seemed that she could take advantage of this opportunity!

She was happy. Learning from previous lessons, she put her body lower, moved forward step by step from behind the couch. The tall leather sofa blocked her body. The cras.h.i.+ng sound of her father turning the pages and her mom’s conversation covered her subtle footsteps.

The entrance was getting closer and closer. Victory was only a few steps away!

In Snowy’s mind, there was a perfect simulation of how to quietly put on her shoes at the entrance, and slip out of the house without anyone noticing…

"Meow!"

Although it was only a low cat noise, it was particularly harsh at this time.

Suddenly, all noises stopped. It was dead silent. The house was so quiet that even a falling leaf could be heard.

Frightened, Snowy looked up from the back of the couch and saw her father and mother staring at her.

"You behaved for just a few days and now are busy sneaking out for a live show again?" Jiang Tianda said impatiently. "How many times do I need to tell you? What do you get out of those live shows? You should learn to behave like a lady. Look at the other kids in this villa; who goes out every day like you?"

"Woo..." Snowy’s face wrinkled up. She knew she had to listen to her dad’s preaching, which he told her again and again.

"Honey, I allowed her to go out." s.h.i.+ Rong suddenly said.

Snowy and Jiang Tianda were both shocked at the same time. What was going on in her mom’s mind?

s.h.i.+ Rong came forward with s...o...b..ll in her arms and faked a severe accusation. "What a wild girl! Go if you want, but don’t take s...o...b..ll next time. Did you see how much mud and rotten leaves got caught in her hair from the woods? Take her for a bath!"

s.h.i.+ Rong pushed s...o...b..ll to Snowy without saying anything else.

Snowy quickly understood and kept nodding. "No problem! Trust me! I guarantee I’ll bring back a clean and white s...o...b..ll! Bye!"

She quickly went to the entryway, took the cat bag out from the cupboard, put s...o...b..ll into the cat bag, put on her shoes, and ran out with joy. She did it quickly so her father could not stop her.

After Snowy left, Jiang Tianda pulled a long face and stared at his wife. "Look at how you spoil her! How will she find a husband in the future?"

s.h.i.+ Rong shot back without hesitation, "If she cannot find a husband I will keep her all my life... Anyways, I don’t want to see a depressed daughter!"

"What?! Like mother like daughter..." Jiang Tianda was choked with rage. He could not continue to read the files anymore, so he took off his reading gla.s.ses.

After a while, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Let me ask you. How come all of a sudden she started to behave for a few days?" He asked.

"How would I know?"

"Did you not ask?"

"I did. She didn’t say anything." s.h.i.+ Rong fought back, "How about you? Why don’t you pay more attention to your own daughter? All you care about is your work…"

Jiang Tianda thought in his head that of course he cared about Snowy and he never missed one show of hers. However, he was too embarra.s.sed to admit that. He didn’t want his wife to laugh at him and chances were she might tell her friends as a joke. Becoming the laughing stock of the villa was the last thing he wanted to happen.

He remembered the last live show, which was when she went to Hidden Fog Tea House in Mt. Hidden Fog. Snowy was normal during the whole broadcast. The owner from the pet shop was annoying… after that live show, Snowy became very quiet.

"Was it because of..." Jiang Tianda thought of what Zhang Zian said about the RPG game.

Was Snowy hurt by that?

He thought that was very possible. Why did she go back to her normal self today?

"Did she go out yesterday?" He asked.

"Nope—she only wandered around within the villa."

"Wandered around within the villa?" Jiang Tianda thought for a second. The villa was very quiet during the day and Snowy wouldn’t go far. If she met someone in the villa, it might be…

"Did you say she took the cat into the woods?" He continued questioning.

"Yes. What’s up?"

A bad feeling came to Jiang Tianda’s mind.

In the morning when he went to work, he sometimes saw Loser Jin walking towards the woods with his fis.h.i.+ng gear and a funny looking Husky.

"Well, I’ve got to go," He changed his shoes and left without saying much.

"Where are you going? It is cold outside, take your jacket!" Snowy’s mom reminded.

After leaving home, Jiang Tianda went straight to a house not far from theirs - where Jin lived. He stayed at home all the time now. If Snowy came across someone in the villa during daytime, it had to be him! The guy was known for commenting on other people’s business.

Jiang Tianda was so mad that he approached Jin’s house quickly.

Late fall is that special time of the year – starting to get cool yet still comfortable.

Stopping at the door, he was staring at something.

The door was tightly closed with a piece of paper stuck on it. The paper was dancing in the wind.

He held down the paper and read carefully.

Someone wrote a note:

My apologies, Lao Jiang. I know you are very busy with work so I talked to your daughter the other day.

I know you have to be choked with rage at this moment. It does not help. I am out of town for a few days. I will return when you calm down.

Trust me. I regret it for real! I will never do that again. Please let me be!

Don’t go crazy. I am a legend.

Pretending to be a life coach was fun. Now I have to run away! That feels even better!

The signature was a funny looking Husky’s head. "What the f*ck! Loser Jin! You’d better shut up from now on!" Jiang Tianda was as mad as a wet hen.

He ripped off the paper and tore it into pieces!

That didn’t make him feel better. He also kicked the door several times.

…

In the security room, a few security guards were watching him and didn’t know what to do.

If it was someone from outside the community kicking at the door, they would stop him immediately and request for financial compensation to any damage to the door. However, this looked like a conflict between the residents… They could not afford to make any of them mad.

After discussion, they decided to push this trouble to their supervisor.

"Copy supervisor! Something is wrong in the security room. Please come immediately. Urgent!"

After a short while.

"What is it? Something wrong with Loser Jin?" the supervisor rushed in with his walkie-talkie.

The security guards all remained silent and pointed at the monitors.

Supervisor, "h.e.l.l! You guys are all pieces of tras.h.!.+"
