Chapter 4397 Earn a lot (4)
When Little Wang Cai saw the roast chicken, he forgot everything else.
He even threw his fear of Zhao Lin to the back of his mind.
He screamed and pounced on the roast chicken. " Big Brother, why did you snatch my roast chicken away? Give it back to me!"
However, just as his little hand was about to grab the chicken wing, Zhao Lin took a step back unhurriedly.
Little Wang Cai did not expect this. Not only did he miss, he almost fell to the ground.
"Big... Big Brother?"
The little guy blinked his big eyes in shock.
Zhao Lin's long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed as his gaze swept across his younger brother's face. He coldly said: " I've already warned everyone earlier. No one is allowed to use medicinal herbs to exchange for roast chicken with Huang Yueli. Everyone else has listened to me but you…. As my younger brother, you dare to openly disobey orders?"
When Little Wang Cai heard his cold tone, he trembled.
However, when he thought of his beloved roast chicken, he still mustered up his courage and tried to explain himself.
"Big Brother, you're mistaken! I didn't disobey your orders. These two roast chickens were definitely not exchanged for medicinal herbs, but... My Female Devil gave it to me!"
"For you?" Zhao Lin smirked coldly." You still want to lie to me? How could Huang Yueli be so kind?"
"This... This..."
Little Wang Cai was instantly tongue-tied, not knowing how to explain.
What Zhao Lin said was absolutely right. According to his Female Devil's usual personality, she naturally wouldn't give it away for free!
The moment he received the roast chicken, he was also shocked.
However, the truth was the truth.
Before he could speak, Zhao Lin snorted coldly." You openly disobeyed the Patriarch's orders and even dared to fabricate a reason to deceive the Patriarch. Your crimes are even worse! On account of your young age, I won't punish you according to the clan rules. These two roast chickens are confiscated!"
"Wha... What? Confiscated?"
Little Wang Cai widened his eyes and could not help but wail.
"Big Brother, no, you can't confiscate my roast chicken! This is really a gift from the Female Devil! I don't know why she's so kind, but it's true. If you don't believe me, you can go and verify it with her face to face!"
"So what if I want to verify it? What if you guys colluded? Hmph!" Zhao Lin snorted coldly." Anyway, I'm taking these two roast chickens! Even if Miss Huang gave it to you, you can't eat it anymore. Cultivate properly! Go back and continue practicing your swordsmanship a hundred times. I want to check it tomorrow morning!"
"What? Tomorrow…and you still want to check? No, Big Brother, no, you can't do this to me!"
Little Wang Cai let out an extremely miserable cry.
However, he still couldn't save his roast chicken.
" Big Brother is too much, too much!!" Little Wang Cai squatted on the grass, one hand pulling the weeds on the ground, the other drawing circles on the mud," Big Brother doesn't eat roast chicken, and he even confiscated mine, he's simply inhumane!"
His stomach was filled with unwillingness, but under Zhao Lin's cold and stern gaze, he could only look at the roast chicken a few times reluctantly before returning to his courtyard dejectedly.
Only when Little Wang Cai's figure disappeared at the end of the forest did Zhao Lin retract his gaze.
He lowered his head and looked at the roast chicken in his hand.
A trace of doubt flashed across his pale golden eyes.
"What did Wang Cai and the others do? How could they be so addicted to such a greasy thing? What's going on?"
He frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he reached out his right hand and pulled out a drumstick from the roast chicken.
