Shou Jizu hurriedly ran out from the inner room, not giving it much thought, purely worried about the children's safety. Walking mountain roads at night is extremely risky. Although Shou Jizu was a bit of a rascal, his heart wasn't bad, and he was genuinely concerned that Tian Xinhua and the others might encounter mishaps on their nocturnal journey.
Of course, he was also angry that the kids ignored his words, but being an adult, he decided to be magnanimous and not stoop to arguing with children.
Shou Jizu truly lived up to his reputation as a scoundrel. Any other man who heard children speak of him in such a way would be so embarrassed, they'd hide away, perhaps even making a turnaround in life thereafter.
However, Shou Jizu, who had been accustomed to such words from a young age, his ears had developed an automatic immunity to them. Thus, the words of Tian Sisi and the others were like mere tickles to him; scratching them meant nothing, leaving no impact on him at all.
