Chapter 203: Menace
‘ Hmm, Energy bars, Chocolates, Energy drinks, What should I get more?’
Jia Hao walked around the shopping mall as he bought everything in bulk. The people around him looked at him with shock as he emptied the shelves.
” Mom, I want to buy that chocolate bar.”
” Ok ok, I will but only one, ok?” Her mom sighed as she nodded. As they stood before Jia Hao, Jia Hao smiled at her.
” Your son?”
” Yeah, He is…he gets a little mischievous sometimes.” The woman smiled.
But the woman and the boy’s expressions froze as Jia Hao swept the entire shelf and took all the chocolates. Smiling at them, Jia Hao walked out.
” M-Mom?”
The boy looked at the empty shelf dumbfounded. ” Chocolate, Where are they?”
” That person just took away everything?” The woman looked back at Jia Hao.
” WAHHHH! WHY CAN HE TAKE ALL OF THEM BUT I CAN’T?”
The woman was trying to console the kid. But as the kid cried more, he finally received a knock on his head.
” If you don’t stop crying, I am going to put back the cookie box.”
” N-Noooo!”
Meanwhile, Jia Hao gave a devilish laugh as he reached the corner.
‘ Oh man, That was hilarious. Taking all the chocolate right before a kid’s eyes.’
Jia Hao sighed with a smile as he looked around the mall. Suddenly, his eyes caught on a small machine.
” Huh? Icemaker?”
Jia Hao picked up the box and flipped around. It’s a small icemaker as it use the battery to cool the things inside. It was pretty small and easy to port.
” Young man, Don’t buy that thing.”
Jia Hao turned around and saw a middle aged lady. She looked at the box and rolled his eyes.
” I bought it a month ago. It doesn’t work properly at all. Other than being portable.”
” But it worked initially, I guess?” Jia Hao asked/
” It did, but it didn’t last for long before it malfunctioned.” The lady sighed. Jia Hao nodded when he heard that.
” Well, I am just taking it for fancy purposes. It won’t harm to try it, yeah?”
” As you wish. I just told you my opinion.”
” Thank you, Miss. You are really kind.”
The middle aged lady smiled when Jia Hao praised her. ” Aw, You are a sweet young man.”
As she left, Jia Hao looked at the box and decided to purchase it. However, he didn’t purchase the boxes just for show.
Thinking about something, Jia Hao’s eyes gleamed. ‘ If that could work, It would be pretty amazing.’
Purchasing everything, Jia Hao stacked everything on the counter, making the cashier stun.
” Uh, Sir, Are you going to purchase all these?”
” Why? Any problem?”
” Uh, Nothing really.”
Jia Hao saw the worker wasn’t paid enough to care for that shit. He just got up and started to scan the bar code.
Paying everything, he passed a 100 Yuan bill to the worker, making him stunned.
” Th-This…”
” Take this as a tip.”
Jia Hao chuckled as he lifted everything and walked away. Looking around, he swiftly put everything inside his Pot of Miracle.
However, suddenly looking around, he found the kid with her mother. He was sulking because he didn’t got his chocolate.
‘ Alright, Let’s do this…’
With a smile, he walked towards the kid. The kid suddenly saw and his sulking increased.
It was because Jia Hao crossed him while eating the chocolate. The boy saw his favorite chocolate being eaten by Jia Hao, increasing his grief.
” WAHHHHH!”
His mother was helpless, But Jia Hao stepped in. ” Well, Kiddo, Take this.”
” Huh? We-We don’t need this…” Her mother hesitated when she saw Jia Hao passing a chocolate to the kid.
” No worries. I took everything off the shelf, but I can’t see him crying.” Jia Hao smiled.
” Not to mention, I can’t see a beauty like you being so distressed.”
” Oh please, You are flattering me.” The woman blushed as she took the chocolate.
” Go and say thank you to this big brother.”
” Why should I?”
The kid squinted his eyes as he looked at Jia Hao. ” That person is a bad guy.”
” Ah Jing! How dare you to be disrespectful…”
” Haha, Children are really funny and…Perspective.” Jia Hao laughed as he turned around to leave,
” Very well, I shall take my leave.”
” Ahh! Alright, Be safe!”
The woman rubbed her face and felt a trace of warmth. ‘ Wow, That young man was so handsome. Is he some movie star?’
‘ Not to mention…He said I am a beauty. Oh my, Such a lovely person.’
” Mom? Are you…Ok?”
” Of course, I am.” The woman smiled. ” Let’s go to McConard before going home, ok?”
” That’s good!”
However, that kid didn’t feel much happy at all. It was like Jia Hao gave him some carrots after tight beating.
Jia Hao saw his expression from afar as he laughed.
” Tsk, Really a brat. He realized I was hitting on his mother with that chocolate.”
” Well, Just be glad I just took your chocolate, not your mom.”
Getting into his car, Jia Hao couldn’t help but shake his head. He suddenly thought about why he had become such a menace today. But then, he realized by being playful, he could easily keep the overflowing desire qi inside him in check.
After all, one can indulge in little playfulness and pranks to remain uplifted, right?
As he returned home, Jia Hao saw Su Yunqi sitting on the sofa in casual attire.
” Hao’er, You are back.”
” Good evening, Aunt Su.” Jia Hao smiled as he sat right beside him. ” How was your day?”
” Ohh, Just don’t ask. So much work.” Su Yunqi sighed as she leaned back. ” However, I am glad that everything is over now. Now, I can relax and bit and let others do the work”
” What about you, Hao’er?”
” Eh, Just simple.” Jia Hao shrugged. ” Going to the academy feels boring now. They are teaching everything I know.”
” Aww, I know. My Hao’er is a genius.” Su Yunqi ruffled his hair with her fingers.
” But, Just maintain a bare minimum attendance, ok?”
” Ehh?” Jia Hao suddenly leaned and hugged Su Yunqi. ” Can’t I act like a rich and spoilt brat?”
” Oho, You want?”
Su Yunqi blushed when Jia Hao hugged her like that. However, She also felt a sense of relaxation in Jia Hao’s embrace.
” But Hao’er, Can you act like one? I doubt so.” Su Yunqi sighed. ” I know you are not a person like that.”
” Not to mention, What’s so good to act like that? Wealth is merely…”
Jia Hao looked at Su Yunqi with a mischievous smile. ” Please, Aunt Su, We are at home, not at some podcast.”
” Ok ok, I admit having money feels good.” Su Yunqi chuckled. ” But still, It won’t harm to being a decent human being, right?”
” Tsk, Aunt Su, You are too good.” Jia Hao sighed as he let him go.
” Whoa, Having some moment, eh?” Su Lan walked from behind as he looked at Su Yunqi and Jia Hao.
” Why, of course?” Su Yunqi smiled. ” Just waiting for Hao’er and he finally came back.”
” What about you, Sister Lan? Not feeling sore anymore?”
Su Lan blushed when she heard the question. ” Totally not, Hao’er. Thanks for asking.”
She clearly understood what kind of soreness Jia Hao was talking about. Looking at the smirk on his face, Su Lan couldn’t help but give a playful glare to him.
” Ah, I remember.” Su Lan suddenly spoke. ” I have a small party to attend tonight.”
” Eh, Is that so?”
Jia Hao’s gaze squinted when he heard that. ” How about this, Aunt Su? Can I come?”
” Oh, Being protective again?” Su Yunqi chuckled when she saw the face of Jia Hao.
” Why not?” Jia Hao rolled his eyes. ” I can’t make you fall in danger, can I?”
” Besides, You need a bodyguard and attendant anyway.”
Su Lan chuckled. ” Tsk tsk, Look at you, Vying for Mom’s attention.”
” Oh please, Sister Lan. Aunt Su’s attention is always on me.” Jia Hao smirked as he looked at her.
” I love Aunt Su so much after all.”
This time, It was Su Yunqi’s turn to blush intensely. She could feel the ‘love’ spoken by Jia Hao wasn’t as innocent as anyone would think.
Getting teased by her step son before her daughter like that, Su Yunqi felt pretty embarrassed. However, she couldn’t help but feel a forbidden thrill in it.
” Ahem, Fine. You helped me a lot in the past. So, You can come with me.” Su Yunqi coughed lightly.
” But, You won’t be mischievous, ok?”
” Aunt Su, I can’t promise that.” Jia Hao chuckled as he shook his head.
” After all, I am a person who pounces on the opportunity the moment I see them.”
Su Yunqi sighed when she heard that. Maybe, the night wasn’t going to be as boring as she thought.
Getting up, Jia Hao walked to his room. However, His expression turned weird as he thought about it.
‘ Aunt Su is a bad villain magnet. Even if she goes to a perfectly fine place, she might encounter danger.’
‘ Besides, I have my Recent Future Point. With this, I can be prepared for anything.’
Jia Hao looked at the mirror and started to get ready for the party.
After all, he could smell trouble from far away.
