Chapter 52: Three Slaps

Shen Baozhu threw herself on the ball-shaped robot and said fiercely, "Don't you dare hurt Third Brother!"

This was the first time the ball-shaped robot had come into contact with a cub since it left the factory. It was almost overjoyed to the point of a program overload.

Thankfully, the ball-shaped robot was a qualified cub robot. It still remembered the injury of the other teenager. "These are sweet candies. Please get off, cute cub. I need to treat the 15 - year - old teenager's wound and fix his bones to avoid any sequelae."

[Don't worry, Baozhu. This robot is professional. It won't hurt Third Brother.]

With Lin Yu's help, Shen Baozhu reluctantly let go, but she watched worriedly as the ball - shaped robot took a knife to cut Third Brother's hair...

Hair?

Shen Baozhu stared in disbelief. Only then did she notice that Shen Haiyan's head was broken, and his hair was stuck to the flesh and blood. The ball - shaped robot was cleaning it very patiently and didn't forget to comfort Shen Haiyan.

"Brave cubs don't cry~ The ball believes you are the bravest cub."

The ball - shaped robot had given Shen Haiyan anesthesia in advance, so Shen Haiyan didn't feel any pain at all. Hearing the ball - shaped robot's words, he just felt embarrassed and wished he hadn't heard them. Shen Baozhu, on the contrary, not only listened attentively but also chimed in, "That's right. Third Brother is the bravest."

"Baozhu is as brave as Third Brother!"

The little girl held her head high and had already applied the words to herself.

After simply cleaning the wound on the back of Shen Haiyan's head, the ball - shaped robot very considerately found a wig, trimmed it, and put it on Shen Haiyan's head.

Then it disinfected Shen Haiyan's hands and feet, fixed them in position, and promoted bone growth.

The ball - shaped robot took out a special instrument from its belly to disinfect Shen Haiyan, fixed his hands and feet with steel plates, and then injected a special medicine. After everything was taken care of, they just had to wait for Shen Haiyan's bones to grow back to normal.

Finally, the ball - shaped robot took out the disinfectant and treated Shen Baozhu's wound.

The little girl who kept saying she was "as brave as Third Brother" groaned in pain when the ball - shaped robot disinfected her wound. "Wuwuwu, it hurts so much..."

The ball - shaped robot comforted her, "You are the bravest cub the ball has ever seen."

"Really? I'm not that brave..." Shen Baozhu felt guilty when praised.

"Of course it's true. You didn't make a big fuss. You are not only the bravest but also very considerate!"

"Actually, it doesn't hurt that much." Shen Baozhu tried hard not to cry out in pain.

The ball - shaped robot took out a special candy for kids with its third hand. "Only brave kids deserve the sweet candy. Now, I'm going to give this candy to the bravest kid!"

After getting the candy, Shen Baozhu didn't feel the pain anymore. When the ball - shaped robot was treating her swollen ankle, she was solely focused on showing the candy to Third Brother. "Third Brother, look! Only the bravest kids can get it!"

...

"Hey, Marquis, don't stop. Keep looking!"

Ping Hai's shrill voice rang out, which gave Shen Yunfeng a headache.

He didn't know how he had offended this master. He was forced to put on layer upon layer of clothes and walk back and forth on this official road, not knowing what he was looking for.

Shen Yunfeng endured and endured. Ping Hai was nearly thirty years old and was the most favored eunuch by the emperor. It was said that those who offended him would either die or be seriously injured.

But Ping Hai became even more excessive. Finally, Shen Yunfeng's anger reached its peak. He asked coldly, "What exactly is Eunuch Ping Hai looking for? Why not just say it straight?"

Ping Hai folded his arms, and his voice became even shriller. "What? Does the marquis not want to help?"

"Eunuch Ping Hai! You took the guards out of the palace without permission. Does His Majesty know about this? Or rather, does His Majesty know that you are bullying people at will by relying on the imperial prestige?" Shen Yunfeng simply laid his cards on the table, trying to threaten Ping Hai.

Then he said a few soft words. "Eunuch Ping Hai, I should have never offended you. Why do you have to push things to the extreme?"

These words made Ping Hai laugh. Right, Shen Yunfeng should have thought about it. Why would a eunuch who had been in the deep palace bully him? Of course, it was the emperor's order!

Since Shen Yunfeng didn't figure it out, Ping Hai wouldn't tell him either.

He just mocked, "Today, you have to look whether you like it or not!"

"Come here! Accompany the marquis to search the nearby area!"

It was said to be "accompany", but in fact, the guards forced Shen Yunfeng to search every place. However, the guards could be replaced when they were tired, while Shen Yunfeng had to hold on.

Shen Yunfeng was extremely dissatisfied, but no one cared about his feelings.

Ping Hai didn't care, and neither did those imperial guards.

They were all the emperor's men, with some favor and family background. Prime Minister Shen had already resigned and returned home, while their families also had elders in high positions. Moreover, this was the emperor's order.

Shen Yunfeng was so tired that he was sweating profusely and could hardly walk steadily.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ping Hai finally let Shen Yunfeng go, not out of kindness but because they were going to the military camp to look for Shen Haiyan.

Although this time they came to torment Shen Yunfeng, they still had to follow the proper procedure.

When they learned that Shen Haiyan was not in the military camp, the smile on Ping Hai's face disappeared. He said in panic, "Shen Haiyan is not here? Where is he then?"

"Hurry up! Hurry up and look for him!"

Ping Hai and the guards got busy. They divided into several groups and checked along the road.

When Shen Yunfeng learned that Ping Hai was looking for Shen Haiyan, his face changed slightly. It had only been half a day, and Shen Haiyan might not be dead yet. If he was rescued...

Shen Yunfeng quickly came up with a countermeasure. He had to delay the time as much as possible until Shen Haiyan died.

"Haiyan is naughty. Maybe he sneaked back home."

"It's getting late now. It will be even more difficult to find him when it gets dark. How about we go back to the capital first to report the news."

"Eunuch Ping Hai..."

"Slap!"

Ping Hai couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Shen Yunfeng. "Shut up! He's your son. Now that he's missing, instead of looking for him quickly, what do you want to do?"

"You dare to hit me?" Shen Yunfeng looked at Ping Hai in disbelief. Even Concubine Xin hadn't hit him on the face last time.

How dare this eunuch Ping Hai hit him on the face?

"Slap!" Seeing the contempt in Shen Yunfeng's eyes, Ping Hai slapped him again.

Shen Yunfeng roared, "You worthless eunuch, how dare you..."

"Slap!" The third slap.

Ping Hai was completely enraged by Shen Yunfeng. He moved his wrist and said with a light smile, "Go ahead. Go and tell others that this worthless eunuch hit you. Let others see how you got slapped by a eunuch."

Shen Yunfeng was stunned by the slaps. His mind was filled with only four words: "a great humiliation"!

He was going to report this to the emperor and severely punish Ping Hai!

"Marquis, don't blame this servant for not reminding you. No one saw this servant hit you here. You'd better not be in a hurry. Find some evidence before you go to the emperor to complain." Although Ping Hai was smiling, his words were not pleasant.

Shen Yunfeng was so angry that he laughed instead. "Evidence? Everyone here saw it. You slapped me three times!"

Ping Hai was preoccupied with the emperor's order and was too lazy to waste more words with Shen Yunfeng. He sneered, "You might as well ask them first."

The guards all stared straight ahead, showing their stance with their actions. Between a marquis who was idle at home and Eunuch Ping Hai, who was favored by the emperor, even a fool knew which one to choose. Besides, they didn't want to be slapped by Eunuch Ping Hai.

Realizing that he couldn't resist, Shen Yunfeng finally behaved himself.

After he behaved, Ping Hai immediately sent two guards back to the palace to report the news, and the rest of the guards divided into several groups to look for Shen Haiyan.
