“You rascals, wait outside. Feel free to walk and play around, I would like to see if anyone in the Four Quarters Embassy dare to stop you all. I’ll leave a huge hole in anyone who dares to trample on my pride today!”
The old fellow spoke arrogantly.
“I’ll fetch you all back after I meet that decrepit geezer!”
“Yes, grandfather. We’re still waiting for you to show them your might!”
The Xu Clan offsprings fawned shamelessly on their grandfather with a bright smile.
“Bastard!”
From afar, Cousin Wang Li, Wang Zhu Yan, and Wang Liang stepped forward and glared furiously at the Xu Clan members.
These fellows were annual visitors to grandfather’s birthday banquet, and under the name of offering blessings, they came to wreck havoc.
No one could understand why grandfather would allow these unwelcomed fellows in each year.
“Heh, how can the Wang Clan treat their guests like that? Does the Wang Clan not educate its offsprings on the proper way of welcoming one’s guests?”
The offsprings of the old fellow lifted their head arrogantly.
“Hehe, little lad, if the one who said those words was your grandfather, I might still reconsider the matter on his account. You all are just brats, I advise you all to scram to the side obediently.”
Abusing his seniority, the old fellow chirped in.
“Old turtle, is this all you can do? To think that despite your age, all you can do is to bully the young folks like us!”
Wang Chong couldn’t hold himself back anymore.
Shua!
In an instant, everyone’s gazes immediately fell onto Wang Chong. Upon hearing the nickname ‘old turtle’, the old fellow’s face turned crimson as if he was injected with chicken blood.
The faces of the Xu Clan offsprings also darkened as they glared savagely at Wang Chong.
Wang Chong didn’t bother avoiding them either. Walking out from the fake hill, he slowly walked over to Old Geezer Xu.
Every family had guests whom they don’t welcome.
Old Geezer Xu was one of them.
Wang Chong couldn’t stand his arrogance.
“Hehe, back then, during the political change in the royal court, you hid in your own turtle shell, not daring to move at all. Only when everything was nearly settled did you send an army of troops over, earning yourself the title of Duke of Xu. Old geezer, if you aren’t a turtle, who else is?”
Walking over, Wang Chong didn’t mince his words at all. The nickname of ‘old turtle’ that he gave him in his previous life didn’t come from nowhere. In Wang Chong’s opinion, it wasn’t luck at all. The other party was just a coward, and the only reason why he managed to become the Duke of Xu was because he saw that the situation was settling down, and he made use of the opportunity to step out and earn himself merit.
“You stinky brat!”
Turning to look at Wang Chong, Old Geezer Xu’s body trembled, and his face became as red as a pig’s liver. Back then, during the political change, Xu Shao arrived late, and numerous people made use of this fact to attack him. It was his greatest sore spot.
He didn’t expect that Wang Chong would flip it out today.
“… You, come here! I promise that I won’t throw you over the wall!”
