Chapter 1964 - 138: Ill-Mannered
Liang Yuening folded his arms and sneered.
"I have to say, you old woman, your skin is really thick. Do you really think I don’t know what those scandals in the city are about? You think I’m really stupid, huh? Clearly, it’s a one-person show you directed and acted yourself. Now you want to set a trap to make me jump into the pit you’ve dug? How nicely you’ve imagined it!"
His words were quite blunt, possibly because he was filled with anger over injustice towards his sixth brother. Or perhaps, due to living a constrained life recently, Liang Yuening’s mood was unpleasant, and the meticulous scheming of the other party ignited his anger directed at the Second Elder.
As things had reached this stage, the Second Elder’s expression gradually darkened.
She seemed tired of putting on a facade in front of Liang Yuening and said domineeringly, "In any case, I’ve decided on this marriage, so prepare yourself. Soon, the Yan Family Master will come to propose."
"Propose my ass!"
Liang Yuening’s face darkened: "If you want to marry, you marry. Don’t come nagging me, and really think I’m an easy going person? If you dare to drag this out any longer, you better believe I’ll slap that stupid head of yours off!"
Liang Yuening suddenly stood up from the seat, while a trusted aide stood behind the Second Elder, glaring fiercely at Liang Yuening.
The aide suddenly shouted, "Outrageous!"
"You youngster, how dare you speak to the Second Elder like this? Truly, you have no manners!"
At that moment, Liang Yuening, who had been both arrogant and restless, seemed to calm down.
He slowly lifted his head and coldly eyed the trusted aide. "Who are you calling ill-mannered?"
The aide was the Second Elder’s tool, and Liang Yuening’s actions repeatedly disrespected the Second Elder, so the aide stood up for her. As for the Second Elder herself, she looked indifferent, sipping her tea, acting as if she neither hears nor sees anything going on, allowing her aide to act freely.
The aide glanced at the Second Elder and understood her intentions, and immediately displayed disdain, speaking derisively.
"Who I’m talking about, aren’t you well aware? A thing born with no one to raise it. Really don’t know what the old lady sees in you?"
"Could it be she’s taken by your face? But with your stature, big and burly, people outside say you use your looks to charm others, but with your appearance, it seems even if you wanted to sell yourself, no one would accept it."
"Could it be the old lady has such peculiar tastes and is fond of your qualities?"
The aide knew very well that the external rumors about the Young Master of the Qin family were all spread by the Second Elder, and now deliberately spoke like this, intentionally humiliating Liang Yuening.
Liang Yuening chuckled, suddenly stepping forward with determination.
He kept one hand behind his back.
"You two master and servant, one playing the red face, the other the white face, there’s actually some fun to it."
However, his icy demeanor appeared as if he were looking at a corpse.
The aide glanced again at the Second Elder’s expression, seeing her calm and composed. Years of mutual understanding allowed the aide to guess the Second Elder’s thoughts.
Thus, instead of retreating, the aide advanced, stepping forward confidently.
"Our Second Elder considers everything for you, but instead of being grateful, you speak disrespectfully and defy authority, deserving a lesson!"
Saying this, the aide swiftly struck, slapping towards Liang Yuening as if intending to hit his face.
However.
Before the slap could land on Liang Yuening’s face, there was suddenly a loud bang.
