"You little rascal, I told you not to sneak food! I told you not to sneak food!" A middle-aged man, brandishing a stick, fiercely beat a small boy about ten years old.
Shi Nian frowned.
Looking at the time, this must be Erniu's unborn younger brother.
Despite the beating, the little boy didn't shout in pain. Instead, he just kept staring at the man, his lips curled into a strange smile.
The man felt a chill down his spine from the boy's gaze and beat him even more fiercely: "Try that stare on me again, I dare you…"
"Head of the household! Stop, please stop!" A frail middle-aged woman rushed out, shielding the little boy: "You'll kill Xiaohao like this!"
"So what if he dies? Just look at this curse! Does he treat me like his father?" The man shouted angrily: "We should never have had this evil spawn! Without him, Erniu wouldn't have left, and I would now be the father of an Immortal, not stuck in this godforsaken place."
