"Grandpa Boss!" Dom sprang up from his seat and tried to stop the enraged old man from continuing to make a loud ruckus. "Please be quiet. Boss just fell asleep again."
Fortunately, Grandpa Lu listened and stopped. His anger, however, had no signs of abating. He glared at his two grandsons and looked like he wanted to bang their hard heads together to teach them a lesson. Then his eyes landed on the beautiful, sleeping young woman on the bed. Concern immediately replaced the fierce glare on his face. He rushed to her.
"How’s Xiulan my girl? I want to know!"
"Don’t worry, Grandpa Boss. Boss is safe now but the doctor says that she needs complete bed rest for at least half a month."
It was Dom who answered Grandpa Lu. The three other men were completely silent. Both Jin Liwei and Lu Zihao had already resigned themselves to be scolded by the old man. As for Jin Chonglin, he pretended to be invisible, not wanting Grandpa Lu’s line of fire to be directed at him as well.
"Good! That’s good!" Grandpa Lu nodded in relief as he looked at Iris. "She looks so pale!" He turned his head to glare at Jin Liwei and Lu Zihao again. "Useless rascals! Can’t even take care of your pregnant wife and little sister! Hmph!"
"Grandpa Boss, please sit down." Dom tried to lead the old man to an empty armchair but Grandpa Lu waved him away.
"Thanks, Dominic my boy, but this old man is fine!"
Dom pursed his lips but didn’t insist and withdrew. He returned to his seat and attacked a box of cookies next. His stress levels were at an all-time high after everything that happened tonight, so he couldn’t stop eating.
Grandpa Lu patted the sleeping Iris’ hand before marching to scold the two dunderheads for their reckless negligence.

Upon seeing Jin Liwei’s injured state, he only grabbed the younger man’s ear and twisted it. Jin Liwei hissed from the pain but otherwise endured it quite well. The sight was too pitiful that Jin Chonglin covered his eyes, no, his entire face with a throw pillow while Dom shoved more cookies inside his mouth.
"Hmph! Serves you right, you pinhead! How dare you leave our company’s defence to your wife?! I want to know! You know how sensitive her health has become after becoming pregnant! If you act this bloody incompetent again next time, I’ll replace you with Xiulan and make her the new President-CEO of Jin Corporation! Leaving your pregnant wife alone to act out a ridiculous play with your fifth brother, this old man wishes that I use a cane so that I can hit you two dunderheads with it! Hmph!"
Jin Liwei groaned in both relief and pain when the old man finally released him. He quickly massaged his abused ear and remained silent, not saying anything to defend himself.
"And you!" Grandpa Lu targeted Lu Zihao next.
He charged at his flesh and blood grandson sitting on the windowsill and began smacking Lu Zihao. Grandpa Lu didn’t hold back at all. The loud hitting sounds filled the room, making Dom and Jin Chonglin wince and sink deeper in their seats.
"Gah! This old man has a bellyful of things to say to you for a while now, you dunderhead! How dare you hide and not show your face to your beloved grandpa for so long?! Do you still treat this old man as your grandpa, huh?! I want to know!"
Lu Zihao stood there like a statue and let the old man release his pent-up anger and frustrations at him. His body could take it. Grandpa Lu was strong for his advanced age, but at the end of the day, he was already an old man and couldn’t compare to the strength of men in their prime like Lu Zihao and Jin Liwei.
The hard smacks rained down on Lu Zihao but he was like an immovable mountain who could weather any storm. Seeing him so unaffected, Grandpa Lu hit him harder.
