Chapter 1118: [Bonus chapter] Can't Hurt Him
"Why don't we call Raelle instead?" suggested Song Xin'ai.
Xiang Hulin gave her a bitter look, "Forget it. Let's not disturb her tonight."
Song Xin'ai laughed, "You're just scared because you know you'll lose since Raelle won't lie and you'll be exposed as a nagger."
"As if you can win in front of her," he shot back.
Song Xin'ai coughed unnaturally and looked away. "Oh, anyway, where is Feifei? I'll say hello to her."
"She is on the dance floor," pointed Xiang Hulin and didn't care about how she avoided the topic. "Her favorite grandnephew in here. How can she not dance with him?" He suddenly had a gentle look in his eyes as he added, "She has an adorable grandnephew though. He is such a sweet gentleman. I just met him for a while, but he is a sweetheart."
Song Xin'ai gave him a strange look before saying, "Oh? Are you jealous that she has an adorable grandnephew?"
"No," he denied.
"I almost forgot. Congratulations! You're already a grandfather too!"
Xiang Hulin's expression turned cloudy from sunny almost instantly and his anger level rose consistently. He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, "Don't remind me! I'm already mad enough."
Song Xin'ai laughed softly at his reaction. It was so amusing to see how he changed his face. One second he was like a gentle grandpa, but now, he was a grumpy grandpa.
"You can still laugh?" he asked in anger. "Is this something funny? That bastard son actually did such a thing and you are laughing?"
"Hey! That bastard son is still yours. Don't swear at him," said Song Xin'ai. "Besides, I trust in my son. He is not an unreasonable and irresponsible person. Something must have happened that we don't know about. Wait for a while patiently and we'll just ask him later what's going on. But from what I heard from Chenyan, even he doesn't know anything."
"Doesn't that only prove that he is blind and an idiot? He deserves to be fooled. Who even called him the ace of the Air Force Academy back then? I have to drag that person over to see what a blind officer he chose as the ace!"
"Okay, now, you're just venting," said Song Xin'ai. "There is no reason for that though. Weimin had always been clear about what he wanted to do in his life. And he never failed to let us two irresponsible parents feel involved in his life. He had always been so worry-free."
"Yeah. And he was deciding to give me a heart attack at this point in my life. I want to beat him so badly right now."
"It's not his age to be beaten though," said Song Xin'ai. "And if he really allowed you to beat him, it'd only show that he is a good son."
"A loving mother spoils the son."
"As if I have ever gotten a chance to spoil him. I'm just giving you a reasonable argument right now. We should be calmer about this and be patient too. We don't know what happened. What's the guarantee that he wasn't plotted against? It's not like it never happened with you."
Xiang Hulin fell silent when he heard that didn't continue.
"Wow! My parents seem to be having a rare peaceful conversation. What a surprise!"
Both of them looked behind to see Xiang Weimin standing there looking at them.
Seeing him both of them lost their temper. And even before Xiang Weimin could move, Song Xin'ai extended her hand and pulled Xiang Weimin's ear. She twisted it with force making Xiang Weimin wince in pain.
"Mom!"
"Don't call me mom right now! I'm very mad!"
Xiang Hulin gave her a look, "Weren't you saying that we should be calmer?"
"Who asked him to come to annoy me with his cheeky smile?"
"I'm not even allowed to smile now?" asked Xiang Weimin in confusion. He didn't know what was happening. It seemed his intuition to stay away from his parents was right. He shouldn't have come to find trouble for himself here.
"You fool! I don't even know how I gave birth to you. If there was anyone in our family that I had no faith in, it was Wai! I thought if there was anyone who made a mistake in life, it'd be Wai because of her impulsiveness but I never thought it'd be you who never even gave me a single worry in life. What am I supposed to do now?"
"You both need to at least tell me what are you talking about?" he asked. "You both have been glaring at me all night. At least tell me what have I done. I have the right to know why I'm being prosecuted or I'll rebel!"
Xiang Hulin flicked his forehead making his forehead turn red. "You still have the nerve to talk back to your mother? Be obedient and take your punishment or it'll get worse if you resisted."
Xiang Weimin gaped at them in disbelief and looked around, "How about we take it somewhere else? Huh? Everyone is looking at us. Let's not make a spectacle of our family here."
"He is right," said Xiang Hulin to Song Xin'ai.
Before they could move, a small figure rushed to Xiang Weimin and stood in front of him. His small arms opened as if he was protecting him. He pursed his lips and took a while to muster his courage to speak in a soft voice, "You can't hurt him."
Xiang Hulin and Song Xin'ai were taken aback. Then both looked at that small figure who stood in front of Justin trying to maintain his courage and hiding his shyness behind this fake courage.
"Don't bully my friend!" said Justin raising his voice a little but it had no dettering power. If anything, it could melt anyone and kill them with sweetness.
Even Xiang Weimin forgot to react when he saw this scene and a big smile spread on his face unconsciously. He just stared at this little brave friend and shook his head.
