Chapter 240 - Humiliating an Elder
Chapter 240: Humiliating an Elder
Luo Xin remained silent, her fists tightening by her sides.
What kind of ability did Ling Sheng have? Was it just because she was pretty?
Movie King Huo, the Third Master, and now Fifth Master Lu had all sided with her, becoming subjects under her skirt?
What a joke. Men kept saying that they were sophisticated, talented, and virtuous. Those were all excuses. They were just animals who only knew how to think with their genitals. They always liked pretty fools!
Lu Yubai suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned around and smiled dangerously. “What did Master Gu just say? He left in a hurry. I didn’t hear him clearly.”
Gu Shen was, after all, a junior. His strict upbringing made him regret his words. However, he could not retract them. “To be honest, Fifth Master, Ms. Ling has been dating my Third Uncle recently.”
Lu Yubai strolled over. He was an elegant man who seemed to emit a gust of wind as he walked. When he reached Gu Shen, he smiled lightly. “No, no, that’s not what I meant.”
Gu Shen’s lips curled up coldly as he mocked him. “I believe you heard me, Fifth Master. You’re indeed magnanimous. Your taste in women is also unique.”
Lu Yubai maintained his composure as he interrupted him. “Kid, speak nicely. That’s not what I meant. I’m asking you what you said at the end.”
“I hope you can forgive me for saying those words in a moment of desperation. I just can’t stand her lies.” Gu Shen would not repeat himself. After all, he had not said something nice.
“So you’re saying this for my own good?” Lu Yubai smiled.
“Fifth Master, I can also prove that Ling Sheng is indeed dating the Third Master.” Luo Xin stood up to act as a witness. “We’ve seen them together with our own eyes.”
“The two of you are really funny. You twisted my relationship with my eldest niece in front of everyone and insulted her personality. You said that I have a green grassland over my head. This is the upbringing of the Gu Family. Gu Shen, did your Third Uncle teach you to spout nonsense in public and humiliate your elders?” Lu Yubai’s lips curled up in mockery.
Gu Shen, who was stunned, looked at him in disbelief. “What do you mean, Fifth Master?”
“My meaning was literal. Does the Gu Family raise fools like you who can’t even understand human speech?” Lu Yubai did not use vulgar words when scolding others. He just spoke without mercy.
Upon seeing the awkward expressions on Gu Shen and Luo Xin’s faces, Ling Sheng felt immensely satisfied. It turned out that her Fifth Uncle was so good at scolding people that even that *sshole, Gu Shen, could not control his expression.
Gu Shen had not expected Ling Sheng to be Lu Yubai’s niece. He tried his best to control his expression so that he would not lose his composure in front of everyone. “I was being nosy. I shall not ruin the Fifth Master’s mood then.”
“Fifth Master, we shall take our leave now.” Luo Xin smiled politely.
“Stop right there!” Upon seeing the duo leaving, Lu Yubai stopped them. “Master Gu, you’ve really broadened my horizons. Aren’t you going to give me an explanation for humiliating your elders?”
Gu Shen was fuming. When he turned around, he tried his best to suppress the anger and embarrassment in his heart as he looked at Lu Yubai. “I apologize to you, Fifth Master. Sorry.”
Luo Xin also apologized with a sincere smile. “Fifth Master Lu, I’m sorry. We didn’t get to the bottom of this, which resulted in this misunderstanding.”
“I’m not the only one who misunderstood.” Lu Yubai pulled Ling Sheng to his side.
“Ms. Ling, I’m sorry.” Luo Xin apologized first, her eyes full of sincerity and no sign of reluctance.
