Chapter 458 End of the Victory Banquet (1)

"You're really only saying that?" Old Master Nan was annoyed.

"I can't really control all of my son and you know how it is in my second son's household." Old Master Shangguan really wished to kick his son out but he didn't have the heart to do that when his wife was adamant on keeping him. There has always been trouble in the second son's household.

He might be a good general, but he really couldn't bring himself to be harsh towards his family members. This was what had caused the Shangguan Family to be quite free in whatever they were doing so far.

"Well, it just time for some cleanup." Old Master Nan was stubborn.

"What?"

"If you don't do that, I'll report everything to Old Long so that he can cause trouble for you in his next life."

Old Master Shangguan was speechless then shook his head. It seemed that whether he wanted or not, it was time for him to harden his heart when facing his children. He really didn't want to go this far, but to drag Long Family and Nan Family into his mess, it was already enough.

All of them would be punished.

"I'll give you some compensation. For now, I should go back and settle this mess." Old Master Shangguan cupped his fist then walked away.

Old Master Nan glanced at his old friend and sighed. Among the three of them, the one with the softest heart was Old Master Shangguan. This man loved children far too much that he couldn't bring himself to be harsh when he was facing his own sons and grandsons.

As the result, he ended up pampering them.

Old Master Long was the strictest and ended up causing his relationship with his own son like a general and his soldier. Sometimes, Old Master Nan even felt his eyes hurt when he saw that.

He himself was not any better.

Old Master Nan knew that he couldn't be as strict as Old Master Nan and couldn't be as soft as Old Master Shangguan. The one that caused his heart to go soft was his wife, who had passed away many years ago.

If not because of her, he would have long disciplined his children harshly.

Nan Si Qiao once told him that she was even scared of him when she was young.

'How did I fail?'

Su Ai Yuan was thinking of that incident over and over. She felt that she had already trying to head over into the lake directly. How come it ended with her bumping onto Shangguan Mi?

Was there something on the ground that changed her direction?

Rocks?

Su Ai Yuan felt that her mind was in a mess right now.

Tep!

She glanced to the side and saw a woman was looking at her with dark expression, causing Su Ai Yuan to nearly fell down. Wearing a veil and bangs, it made her countenance harder to look at. However, it was clear that those who knew her would be able to recognize her with one glance.

"Madam Wen...." Su Ai Yuan struggled to speak.

The woman in front of her was skinny and her skin was dark. There were even some marks on her face that made her look horrible, which was why she was wearing a veil even though she was already married.

Madam Wen looked at Su Ai Yuan and snorted. "Useless."

"No... please give me another chance... I..."

"I have no use of someone who's useless."

Su Ai Yuan's face changed. She looked at Madam Wen in front of her as her fingers clenched into a fist. "Please give me another chance. I won't disappoint you."

"You have three months," Madam Wen spat out before turning around, entering the main hall once more. Her movement was done at an elegant pace, but those who saw her all moved away from her.

They have no intention of getting close to her.

From a distance, Long Qian Xing had finished giving his instruction to the two young men. He noticed Madam Wen was walking not far from him and the light in his eyes turned a shade colder.

After everything that had happened, it seemed that some people from his past was still looking to hit him. They would never want to stop until they saw him destroyed.

How amusing.
