“How dare you! This isn’t a place where you can behave atrociously! Hurry up and scram back to your residence!” Leng Yimin roared furiously, the veins on his forehead bulging.
“Father, Leng Ruoxue humiliated Grandpa like this. You absolutely can’t let her go.” At this moment, two more people barged in, and one of them was Leng Rumei.
“What are you doing here? Get back to your rooms!” Leng Yimin roared with widened eyes. He was so angry! These three troublesome things. Didn’t they see that the Grand Elder was here too? No one could protect them if they angered the Grand Elder. Unfortunately, not only did the mother and children not appreciate his efforts, they even pressed on step by step.
“Father, Leng Ruoxue is just a bumpkin who hasn’t seen the world. I’m willing to let her be my maidservant, but not only does she not know gratitude, she actually injured Grandpa. How unforgivable! Moreover, according to our clan rules, offending your superiors is a capital offense, so please give the order to punish Leng Ruoxue.” Leng Rumei directly used the clan rules to pressure others. Hmph! She didn’t believe Leng Ruoxue would survive this time.
“Shut up. You have no say in this matter,” Leng Yimin rebuked resentfully. Hmph! This daughter was becoming more and more out of hand. Didn’t she take a look at where she was? She kept complaining here. Did she think those elders were dead!
“Father! Could it be that you’re afraid of Leng Ruoxue?” Leng Rumei was a little angry that her father refused to give the order.
“How dare you!” Leng Yimin roared as he slammed the table.
“Father, we won’t live if you don’t punish Leng Ruoxue,” Leng Rumei threatened. She really didn’t expect her father, who had always loved her, to shout at her for an outsider. How could she bear this!

“Vile being, how dare you threaten me?” Leng Yimin’s face darkened with anger.
“Patriarch, I know. It was my fault back then. I shouldn’t have given birth to the two of them. The existence of the three of us has always been in the eyes of someone, so I’ll bring the two of them to die here today! It’ll be over!” the white-clothed woman said aggrievedly with tears in her eyes.
“Leng Wanqiu, are you talking about me?” Leng Shuang’s voice sounded before Leng Yimin could say anything.
“Madam, why are you here?” Leng Yimin hurriedly stood up and welcomed Leng Shuang after seeing her.
After seeing Leng Shuang, the other elders and Guardians stood up and bowed to her in addition to the elders with higher seniority.
“Elders, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. I just heard that the meeting hall today is quite lively, so I came to join in the fun.” Leng Shuang’s beautiful face had a perfect smile as she said. Then she sat down in the empty seat on the other side of Leng Yimin.
“Leng Wanqiu, you haven’t answered me yet!” Leng Shuang continued to remind her after sitting down.
“Mistress, you are virtuous and respected in the clan. How can I dare to criticize you!” Leng Wanqiu said with a very pale face. Her soft and watery eyes kept floating to Leng Yimin, hoping to obtain his protection. Unfortunately, he didn’t even look at her, which made her feel very disappointed.
“Oh! I heard you say that you want to end everything here?” Leng Shuang raised her eyes and asked lightly.
“I… I just hope that the patriarch can uphold justice for this servant’s old father. He has been humiliated like this. If the Leng family doesn’t punish Leng Ruoxue, where will our Leng family’s face go?” Bai Wanqiu said righteously.
“So you don’t really want to die!” Leng Shuang’s beautiful face was full of regret.
“I…” Leng Wanqiu looked at the high and mighty Leng Shuang and couldn’t help but burn with jealousy. However, she really didn’t dare to contradict Leng Shuang in front of so many elders. Otherwise, she would be the unlucky one.
“Alright, don’t call yourself a servant in front of me as if I’m bullying you. Moreover, I’m not a man, so save your pitiful appearance!” Leng Shuang didn’t hide her disgust.
“Mistress!” Leng Wanqiu wanted to explain with tears in her eyes, but Leng Shuang interrupted her.
“Leng Wanqiu, you’re really becoming more and more gutsy. You even dare to threaten the patriarch and the elders. However, what I want to tell you is that if you really want to die, just bring your child and die. Don’t just say nothing!” Leng Shuang said with a spurious smile. With her words, even the elders and Guardians who were on better terms with the Tenth Elder did not dare to speak up for Leng Wanqiu. As for Leng Yimin, he directly turned his head to the pillar beside him and counted the dragon scales on it.
“Mistress, this servant doesn’t dare,” Leng Wanqiu said softly, tears falling from her eyes like pearls with a broken string.
“Even if you are the mistress of the family, you can’t bully my mother like this. She is my father’s woman after all. How can you treat her like this!” Leng Rumei accused furiously, her heart full of hatred. Hmph! One day, she must vent this anger for herself and for her mother! At that time, she would definitely return Leng Shuang’s humiliation on the three of them by several times! She swore in her heart.
“Patriarch, is this the daughter you’ve always doted on? How uneducated.” Leng Shuang ignored Leng Rumei and said to Leng Yimin disdainfully.
“Rumei, quickly apologize to the matriarch!” Leng Yimin roared shamelessly. Alas! This trivial matter in his family! When would it end! He was so annoyed!
“I didn’t do anything wrong. Why should I admit it?” Leng Rumei said indignantly.
“Patriarch, since Miss Leng Rumei is unwilling to admit her mistake, don’t force her. I can’t bear it either,” Leng Shuang said very coldly.
“Madam!” Leng Yimin pleaded. Boohoo… He knew that Madam was angry from her tone.
“Patriarch, I came to inform you of a matter. Leng Ruoxue and I hit it off at first sight, so I recognized her as my sister. Moreover, I’ve already sent someone to invite her to my house as a guest. Well! They should be here soon. I’ll excuse myself.” Leng Shuang left the meeting hall coolly after speaking.
Uh! Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard Leng Shuang’s words. After they returned to their senses, they realized that the matter seemed to be becoming more and more complicated. Alas! The patriarch’s wife was also involved, which made them very conflicted!
“How dare you! This isn’t a place where you can behave atrociously! Hurry up and scram back to your residence!” Leng Yimin roared furiously, the veins on his forehead bulging.
“Father, Leng Ruoxue humiliated Grandpa like this. You absolutely can’t let her go.” At this moment, two more people barged in, and one of them was Leng Rumei.
