Although Cai Weidong was used to being arrogant, he seemed very restrained and cautious at this moment.
The sudden appearance of the father and son, Cai Hengping and Cai Weidong, made Qin Lang basically certain that Wu Wenxiang's purpose of inviting him to dinner. However, this was Wu Wenxiang's home. Qin Lang was waiting for Wu Wenxiang's further performance.
"Old Cai, you two father and son sit in the living room first. I will accompany the guests for dinner and then we will talk." Wu Wenxiang directly left Cai Hengping and Cai Weidong aside. This was clearly a show of strength to the father and son.
After almost half an hour, Qin Lang and Wu Wenxiang finished dinner. Then, Wu Wenxiang pushed the old lady back to the room and then came to the living room with Qin Lang.
"Mayor Wu, I know you are busy, so I will be straightforward. I brought my son to apologize to you." Cai Hengping said in a low voice. Wu Wenxiang was the mayor. It was inevitable for Cai Hengping to bow down to him.
"Old Cai, look at what you are saying. You didn't offend me. Why are you apologizing to me?" Wu Wenxiang smiled faintly. "Oh yes, this is Qin Lang, my nephew. He just transferred to No.7 Middle School a few days ago. Oh yes, your son is also in No.7 Middle School. Maybe they should know each other. "
"Uncle Wu, we are in the same class." Cai Weidong interrupted at this time.
"Impudent. Who asked you to interrupt!" Cai Hengping glared at his son and then said to Wu Wenxiang, "Mayor Wu, this child doesn't know manners. Please don't lower yourself to his level."
"Old Cai, look at what you are saying. How can I lower myself to a child's level?" Wu Wenxiang smiled and then changed his tone. "However, since this child doesn't know manners, you should teach him well as a parent. Don't tell me that children don't know manners? You don't know either! My nephew just came to No.7 Middle School not long ago. I heard that he was bullied today. I don't know what happened. Xiao Cai, do you know what happened? "
"I …" When Cai Weidong saw Wu Wenxiang ask him, he stammered as he didn't know how to answer. This was because he wasn't used to Wu Wenxiang's roundabout way of speaking. Although Cai Weidong wasn't smart enough, he definitely thought that Wu Wenxiang already knew about this. But since he knew, why did Wu Wenxiang ask?
Pa!
Before Cai Weidong could say anything, his father slapped him again. Although the slap sounded loud, it didn't have much force behind it. It was just for show. However, because Cai Weidong's face was already injured, he still cried out in pain.
"Lao Cai, why are you throwing such a big tantrum at a kid?" Wu Wenxiang said lightly, "I was just asking. Even if there's something wrong with the child, just go back and discipline him properly. "
"Yes, Mayor Wu, you're right." Cai Hengping nodded.
Today's incident made Cai Hengping quite angry. His son actually provoked Wu Wenxiang; and his wife actually offended Zhao Zhiwei. They offended two members of the Standing Committee, and one of them was the second-in-command of Summer Yang City. This was an unlucky year. If today's incident wasn't resolved, Cai Hengping wouldn't have a good time in Summer Yang City.
Therefore, even though Cai Hengping loved his son, he still had to slap Cai Weidong.
Although Cai Weidong was tall and burly and was half a head taller than his father, he didn't dare to make a sound after being slapped. This was because his father had already said that if Wu Wenxiang didn't forgive him today, Cai Weidong would probably have to go to the labor camp for a year and a half. After all, Cai Weidong used a knife today and accidentally injured Sun Bo. If he really went through the legal process, he might be charged with "intentional assault." Cai Weidong would accept it if he could just take a few slaps.
"Qin Lang, I'm sorry!" At this moment, Cai Weidong suddenly stood in front of Qin Lang and lowered his head to apologize. However, it was obvious that he was unwilling to do so.
"Alright, Cai Weidong." Qin Lang couldn't be bothered to watch the father and son's performance. "I'm not used to being reserved like Mayor Wu, so I'll be straightforward. Today, I slapped you twice. That was because you instigated Zhao Guang to deal with me and spread rumors to slander me. Also, today you tried to stab me with a knife, so these two slaps weren't wrong. Since you're sincerely apologizing, I'll let bygones be bygones. However, if something like this happens again in the future, don't blame me for being rude! "
Qin Lang's words were harsh and direct, but Cai Weidong understood and nodded.
"Little Qin, you have to be friendly with your classmates. How can you say that?" Wu Wenxiang seemed to be reprimanding Qin Lang, but in fact, he was smiling as he said this.
"It's okay. Little Qin is straightforward, which means that he won't hold a grudge." Cai Hengping quickly said, then expressed his stance to Qin Lang, "Little Qin, don't worry. I'll discipline this disappointing thing well in the future!"
"Alright, it's getting late. You two should go back early." Seeing that Cai Hengping and Cai Weidong had lowered their heads, Wu Wenxiang had achieved his goal. He didn't want to waste any more time with the father and son.
"Alright, Mayor Wu, we'll be leaving now." Cai Hengping stood up and said a few polite words to Qin Lang.
After going out, Cai Hengping wanted to slap Cai Weidong again, but when he saw Cai Weidong's pig head, he resisted the urge and reprimanded, "What did I tell you before? When you see Qin Lang, you have to lower your head and apologize to him. You have to be sincere, didn't you hear me?"
"Didn't I already apologize?" Cai Weidong was still unconvinced.
Slap!
Cai Hengping's slap finally landed, and he said coldly, "Damn, if you two want to die, don't drag me into it! Didn't you see how Mayor Wu defended that kid? You must be convinced! If you dare to do anything to him, I'll be the first to cripple you! "
Seeing that his father was so angry, Cai Weidong didn't dare to talk back. He said in a low voice, "Then … I'll go back and read."
"Read your ass! You still have to go to Secretary Zhao's house to apologize. It's all the good things you two did! "Cai Hengping snorted coldly.
Just as Cai Hengping and Cai Weidong went to Zhao Zhiwei's house, Wu Wenxiang and Qin Lang began another conversation.
"Little Qin, the father and son came to apologize. Do you feel better?" Wu Wenxiang and Qin Lang said with a smile.
"Mayor Wu, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Qin Lang asked.
"We're considered acquaintances. Of course, I want to hear the truth."
"The truth is, compared to them apologizing, I feel that slapping Cai Weidong was more satisfying."
"Hehe, that's the truth! You're indeed a young man. " Wu Wenxiang said with a smile, "It's just that your slap caused a lot of trouble. But this time, the father and son bowed their heads and apologized. This means that they won't dare to find trouble with you anymore. Do you know? This Cai Hengping is a local government official in Summer Yang City. Although my father-in-law retired, he used to be a provincial government official. I have to give him some face. "
