Chapter 563: The Tractable Little Brother-in-Law
After sorting out this mess, don’t mention a reunion meal, they didn’t even have time to drink a mouthful of water.
By the time they headed back to the Qiao Estate, lunchtime had already passed, and it was now the afternoon.
“Qiaoqiao, don’t be angry anymore.” After boarding the carriage, the crown prince quickly set a proper attitude, acknowledging his fault, all while fiercely sending his little brother-in-law a look.
Our dear Qiao Sen was one tractable cookie.
After seeing how even his extraordinary and remarkable Big Bro had to cautiously curry favor with Sister, he understood that this Lady Sister couldn’t be offended at all!
Thus, he hurriedly wrapped his small hands around his sister’s leg and wailed, “Sister, I was wrong, Sister, forgive me.”
He normally gave the elders at home the image of a lovable and clever child. Hence, Wei Ziqin and the rest simply didn’t know about his so-called Little Tyrant of the Capital title.
When this little fellow first arrived in the capital, he was not yet so audacious.
The primary catalyst was that after his Big Bro had smoothly resolved several incidents, he realized that his Big Bro was especially capable and awesome, so he started being all the more fearless because of this backing.
As long as he suffered any grievances and cried a bit in front of his Big Bro, it would immediately get settled in a flash…
In the beginning, there were still people who dared to bully him in the academy. Later on, not to mention how they would take a roundabout route whenever they saw him, they would also all kiss up to him and call him Little Young Master Qiao with extreme deference.
He would look for Big Bro whenever he wanted anything or got into some kind of trouble. Big Bro would visit his house practically every day with lots of gifts every single time, and he basically gave the little fellow anything that he asked for.
Besides, he was the only male grandson in the Qiao Family, so Elderly Lady pampered him exceedingly. Sometimes, when Wei Ziqin did want to reprimand him, Elderly Lady would defend him.
This child’s single sentence simply garnered a response en masse. Qiao Sen passed his days conceitedly and extravagantly at such a tender age, so how could his small, arrogant tail not point up to the heavens?
Nevertheless, he finally understood by now how formidable Sister was.
If he provoked Sister, even Big Bro couldn’t protect him! So this sister was very awesome.
Even though he was young, he understood how to observe people’s expressions. Seeing that Sister’s expression had softened somewhat, he exerted even more effort into wailing for mercy.
Qiao Mu hadn’t wanted to thrash him. It was only that she had recalled her past life, when her good and fine younger brother was led astray by Wen Ruwan and raised into a prodigal debauchee. He would be fighting jealously with love rivals at the brothel every day, and he got beaten to death at age 16.
When she thought of this, she turned her head aside and stared outside the window with reddened eyes, not saying a word.
The crown prince’s heart sank, and he frantically hugged the little one in his arms in both regret and anguish. “Sorry, Qiaoqiao. I vow that I won’t spoil him anymore in the future. It’s my fault, it’s all my fault. It’s because I usually indulge his requests that has led to his out-of-control behavior today.”
“Don’t be angry at yourself, you should just hit me.” The crown prince held her small hand to slap his own chest. “Hit me hard.”
Qiao Mu turned her head around to glare at him. This truly was an exceptionally good Big Bro!
How would she know that the crown prince had also been duped by his little brother-in-law? After all, this little-brother-in-law was usually very sensible and clever in front of him.
Besides, he didn’t live in the Qiao Estate. Normally, he would come in haste and leave in haste, leaving after calling on his parents-in-law and delivering his presents.
How would he have known that this merely seven to eight-year-old brat was so devious and was only putting up a pretense normally?
When Mo Yu that imp was young, the crown prince had also given his younger brother everything that he asked for. There didn’t seem to be a difference between his little brother-in-law and his own younger brother, so that’s why…
But how would he have anticipated his little brother-in-law to have duped him!
