Chapter 960 Is It Day And Night?

Walking into the lobby of the Dongfangjia, the air was stiff.

Tong Huaer took a look. Apart from a few of the Zongjia elders she had met before, grandma and Teacher Duosuo were both there. Both of them lowered their heads and could not see the expression on their faces.

Tong Huaer clenched his fist, a cold gleam in his eyes, and walked in, "Uncle tan, take grandma and Teacher Duosuo to rest first."

"Huaer?"

Dongfang Furen frowned and looked at her. Duosuo's expression was a little solemn. Obviously, neither of them planned to leave at this time.

Tong Huaer didn't look at anyone. He went straight to Dongfang Furen and squatted down. Looking into Dongfang Furen's meaningful eyes, he smiled and said, "Grandma, you should go to the back and rest first. I told you, I'll take care of these things. I can protect you, eh?"

She was no longer the Tong Huaer that had just been brought back. She could only stand behind others and let others protect her. In the future, what she had to bear was the entire Dongfangjia. How could she be afraid of these people in front of her?

Situ Wei had endured for so many years for the Dongfangjia, and grandma was no longer young. How could she let an old man shelter her from the rain?

Dongfang Furen's sharp eyes looked at her for a while before nodding, "Okay."

Tong Huaer smiled and said, "Uncle tan, take grandma and Teacher Duosuo to the garden for a walk. When I came, I saw the lilacs blooming. They were beautiful."

Her voice was unhurried, and there was an irresistible aura in her calmness. The sun shone on her delicate features, illuminating the strength between her brows.

The elders present at the Zongjia frowned in displeasure, but strangely no one spoke first.

"Yes, little miss."

Uncle tan said respectfully.

"I heard that the elders want to see me. Tell me, what do you want from me?"

When Dongfang Furen and Duosuo left the hall, Tong Huaer walked to the sofa and sat down. The maid poured her a cup of tea. She picked up the cup and placed it in her hand, looking down slightly.

"Huaer, since you had deliberately taken sister-in-law and Mr. Duosuo away, you should have known what our intentions were, so why ask!" An elder frowned and said.

"Yes! Huaer, you know their relationship before, and you still want to do this, is to put our Dongfangjia's reputation?"

"You just returned to the Dongfangjia. We don't blame you for not understanding the family rules! But you have to know the seriousness of the matter!"

One after another, the blame was thrown at him. Tong Huaer listened and his fingers tightened as he held the cup.

"Have the elders finished? If that's enough, can I say something?"

Tong Huaer slowly raised his eyes and looked coldly at the old people in the hall.

It was as if a cold light had broken through the clouds, and the hall suddenly quieted down. The anger on the faces of the elders froze, and the aggressive momentum that had just been there froze in an instant.

Silence.

"Now that I'm done, I'll start." Tong Huaer raised his lips coldly, and his cynical eyes swept over everyone present, saying, "Elders, do you know why I sent grandma away just now? Because... I'm afraid she'll get cold!"

The elders were stunned for a moment, then one of them frowned and said, "You... Huaer, what do you mean?"

"I'm afraid that the Dongfangjia, which she once sacrificed herself to become stronger, will now accuse her of being unfaithful and not just shameless. Don't you think this is very chilling?"

"You..."

The elders were speechless.

Tong Huaer looked at the teacup in his hand and said slowly, "I'm really curious. What reason do you have to stop grandma from being with Teacher Duosuo?"

"Duosuo is a foreigner! The Dongfangjia has always been concerned about blood. How can they..."

"Is grandma going to have a baby with Mr. Duosuo?"

"This... Everyone knows about their youth! Now that Duosuo is in our Dongfangjia, what do you want outsiders to say?"

"Who dares to talk too much about Dongfangjia's current strength?"

"It's not good to hear about it after all!"

"You're not entertainers, and you care so much about other people's opinions?"

Tong Huaer did not say a word, word by word, refuting the words of everyone present. After a few rounds, the elders of the Dongfangjia were really speechless.

"Anyway, we just don't allow them to be together now! She's still the owner of our Dongfangjia, and now she wants to be with a foreign old man again. Huaer, I think you should measure it too!"

"...

Tong Huaer frowned and remained silent.

"Huaer, we understand what you mean, but there are some things that can't go out of line after all! The century-old reputation of the Dongfangjia cannot be destroyed by our generation! I hope you understand that!"

A Zongjia elder said in a heavy tone.

From their tone, Tong Huaer could tell that they were not satisfied with her, but because of her bloodline and identity, they had to accept her as the next head of the Dongfangjia.

But that doesn't mean they'll allow her to challenge the Dongfangjia rules!

Tong Huaer's fingers tightened as she held the glass. For some reason, she suddenly thought of Zong Beili.

With that man around, and with his eloquence, none of these elders were his match, she would not have fallen into such a difficult situation.

"All right, stop it." Suddenly, Dongfang Furen's voice came from behind.

Tong Huaer shuddered and turned to look behind him. Duosuo pushed the wheelchair out. Dongfang Furen sat in the wheelchair and looked at them, "Huaer, that's all for today. Tomorrow, I'll arrange for someone to send your teacher away."

Tong Huaer frowned fiercely and looked up at Duosuo, only to find that his face was calm and there was even a smile in his ice-blue eyes.

It was obvious that they had already discussed it!

"Ladies and gentlemen, Duosuo is Huaer's teacher, and he's only here to teach Huaer how to draw. Since there's been some misunderstanding, he should just leave. Today's events should not have happened."

Dongfang Furen's sharp eyes swept over everyone present, and her calm voice was no different from before.

But Tong Huaer could hear the helpless compromise in his words!

Grandma was so proud that she controlled everything in the Dongfangjia. She always did what she wanted. When did she say' nothing happened today' to others?

"Teacher..." Tong Huaer frowned at Duosuo.

Duosuo seemed to know what she was going to say. He smiled and said in a low voice, "Little disciple, as you said, I'm already so old. What else can't be looked at? Don't you have a saying," what are you talking about?"
