The man’s low voice gave off a hellish vibe there, thus sending the beauty into a frozen state as she stood rigidly in attention: “Second…. Second Brother?”
Di Cang didn’t bother to reply to that call, only coming forward on his own. When he saw how upset his son was though, the man promptly reached out with his hand to give the boy a rub on the head. This maneuver was something Bai Yan did often when she’s around so he wanted to copy it to help elevate the mood.
Sure enough, Bai Xiachen’s expression gradually let up as he felt that familiarity. Nevertheless, it won’t change the fact that he’s very unhappy and upset based on that pursed lip he’s making. When that happens, the consequences are dire!
“Who’s your second brother?” Di Cang shifts his attention back to the beauty.
This body may be the young lord of the Water Clan, but this great demon king never once acknowledged he’s part of this group. When the dust settles, he would instantly give up this fleshly container and leave.
“Second Brother, I’m Mei Mei, I’m Water Longyun’s wife, your sister-in-law.” The woman answers with shakiness in her voice.
Frowning like he’s trying to remember the name, Di Cang’s next word down right hurts: “No impression.”
Dunt!
The beauty by the name of Mei Mei directly fell over backwards at the blunt reply. She couldn’t even bring herself to stand up right now due to the heartache. Truly, the lady thought the other man would at least remember her name because she had actually tried to pursue him in their youth and not her current husband. Sadly, despite the effort of this woman and all her attempts at seducing the other side, the already deceased young lord of this Water Clan was a dunce and didn’t get the hint at all. Then once the man kicked the bucket and Di Cang took over, that’s when the already stale relationship devolved to the point where she couldn’t even make eye contact.
“Xiachen,” Di Cang returns his gaze back to the little fella standing beside himself, “I said it, you are my son and don’t have to take any insult from anyone.”
My son won’t be wronged or insulted!
Water Mei Mei couldn’t believe what she’s heard and promptly stared up out of reflex, What does he mean by that?
“Have him kneel on the ground and slap himself. He is not allowed to get back up until I am satisfied!” Di Cang states this as a order, not a request.
“Second…” Shen Mei Mei’s heart shuddered at the idea. She wanted to say something more to defend her family, but against that frightening pressure, the lady instinctively swallows the pretentious words back down and pleaded instead. “Please Lord, Lin Lin is still a child, he really knows his wrong, please spare him.”
“You know your wrong?” Di Cang turns to the brat and asks this.
The the brat never feared anyone in his life before, not even his old man; however, against this second uncle of his, he felt true fear for once and trembled profusely when replying. “I’m wrong, I know I’m wrong….”
Coldly smirking: “I’ve said it before, Xiachen is my son, whoever dares to bully him will not be spared. Since you people take my words as a bluff and only admit to your wrong due to my presence… then Xiachen doesn’t need to accept your apology.”
