"Lei Ao-Ting! You disobedient brat!"
"Is he telling the truth?"
After hearing what Shen Fei had to say, Lei San paled immediately. And his eyes bulged as he turned to yell at his son.
Lei Ao-Ting was so frightened that he started trembling all over. "Dad, I... I didn't know that was Mr. Chu. Mo Wen-Xuan and his family told me that he... he was just a useless live-in son-in-law. So I... I..."
Clearly, Lei Ao-Ting knew he was in big trouble. He did not dare to speak as boldly as he had done before. So he just stood there with his head bowed and tried to explain his circumstances in a pained voice.
At this moment, Lei Ao-Ting was feeling rather down in the dumps. He regretted not running away with Chen Hai-Sheng and Liu Zhao-Ran when he had the chance.
If he had gotten away earlier, he would not be getting a scolding right now.
"Disobedient brat!”
"Oh, you disobedient brat-"
"Are you trying to ruin our family?"
Master Lei San was so frightened that he walked over and kicked Mo Wen-Xuan to the floor.
"Master San, what are you doing?"
Mo Wen-Xuan was bewildered.
If you want to teach your son a lesson, go ahead! Why did you have to kick me?
"Ah, I kicked the wrong person."
Lei San had been so worked up that his kick miss its intended target.
And so, after steadying himself, he turned around to slap Lei Ao-Ting. This time, he did not miss.
"You disobedient brat!" "Are you trying to drive me to an early grave?"
"You incompetent bungler!"
"Mo Wen-Xuan and his family are dumbasses, but why must you be one as well?"
"Our family has prospered for several generations, but it will soon be ruined in your hands!"
Lei San was furious. He had worked so hard to gain Ye Fan's forgiveness after the foul-up at Sheng Tian Restaurant. But who would have thought that his own son would go offend Ye Fan again.
"Dad... dad, I am sorry. From now on, I will never associate with that idiot, Mo Wen-Xuan." Lei Ao-Ting was sprawled over the floor and half of his face had swelled up from Lei San's slaps. Just then, he was feeling shocked and scared. He knew he had caused serious trouble for his family.
At this moment, Lei Ao-Ting wished he could kick Mo Wen-Xuan and his family to death.
If Mo Wen-Xuan had not told him that Ye Fan was just a country bumpkin, he would not have offended Ye Fan and made his father angry.
"Isn't it a bit late to say that now?"
"Quick, get up. Follow me and go apologize to Mr. Chu!"
Lei San's body was shaking with anger as he pulled his son up.
Before leaving, Lei San turned around to look at Mo Wen-Xuan and his family. "Back in the day, the old master of the Mo family had a good reputation. But how come his descendants are such assholes?"
"How dare you get my son involved in your reckless acts?"
"From today onward, there will be no place in Jingzhou for the Mo family!"
"Hmph~"
Lei San snorted coldly and left in a huff.
Chen Ao and the others departed together with Lei San. Since Ye Fan had already left, there was no reason for them to stay.
All at once, half of the guests were gone from the hall. Only the ones who had come to support Han He and the other Hans stayed behind.
They were mostly the directors of small factories, mayors from the neighboring villages and colleagues from Han Hai's company.
"Mayor Han, I have something going on at home. I will take my leave now."
