As soon as he said this, the whole world fell silent. Everyone looked at Tang Zheng strangely. No one expected him to say this.
The Yeh family was a big family. Many members of the Yeh family were used to being high and mighty. They looked down on ordinary people from the bottom of their hearts.
When they heard this, they reacted and shouted angrily, "What did you say?"
The corner of Tang Zheng's mouth curled up. He smiled and said contemptuously, "Did I say that I know you? What do I have to do with you? "
These words were like a fuse that ignited the explosives in their hearts. Many people stood up and glared at him. "Brat, this is the Yeh family. It's not a place for you to behave atrociously. Today, we'll let you know the power of the Yeh family."
"Yes, let him know the power of the Yeh family. How dare he insult the Yeh family? He must be tired of living."
Everyone was talking at once, endlessly reprimanding Tang Zheng, but not a single person stood out to make a move. Instead, they were incessantly clamoring, their mouths flying everywhere.
Ye Tianming was delighted. He thought that Tang Zheng was young and impetuous. Did he really think that he was the winner just because he had a small advantage in words?
This was exactly what he wanted. They had offended everyone. Then, he could forget about climbing up the big tree that was the Yeh family. Ye Tianlei would naturally lose a strong ally. He would be criticized and blamed by others.
Ye Tianlei's family of three was also shocked. They looked at Tang Zheng in disbelief. However, the three of them did not have the heart to complain. Instead, they were angry at the aggressive attitude of others.
However, they understood that now that Tang Zheng's relationship with the Yeh family was strained, more people would insist on cutting ties with Tang Zheng. This was not good for Tang Zheng.
Therefore, Ye Tianlei was about to say a few good words for Tang Zheng. However, Ye Tianming beat him to it and said, "When has our Yeh family been looked down upon like this? Our Yeh family can't tolerate this kind of person. Everyone, am I right?"
"Yes, we can't tolerate him!" The others shouted in agreement. They were quite imposing.
"Not only that, some people blindly cover up for this kind of person and speak for him while ignoring the interests of the family. We can't just let it go." Ye Tianming finished speaking and stared at Ye Tianlei with burning eyes.
The relationship between the two brothers had already reached a point where they were at odds with each other, so there was no need for them to maintain a seemingly harmonious relationship on the surface.
Ye Tianlei, of course, understood the meaning behind those words and glared at them.
Ye Tianming looked down and didn't even look at him. Ye Meiyu couldn't hide her joy and glared at Ye Dingdang and Tang Zheng provocatively.
At that time, Tang Zheng shone brightly. Ye Meiyu also had the idea of using a honey trap to win over Tang Zheng, so she ran to the school to find him.
She couldn't help but rejoice that she didn't succeed. Otherwise, she would have suffered a big loss. Since Ye Dingdang treated Tang Zheng as a treasure, then let them be unlucky together.
Ye Ke took a deep look at Tang Zheng and was relieved. He was aware that his father's position as the head of the family might not be guaranteed, so he told his father to quickly return to the country.
Now, it seems that this move was very clever.
Ye Xuanji looked down at everyone and stopped for a moment on his two sons. He was very clear about the thoughts of these two sons.
In fact, this competitive situation was deliberately done by him. The Yeh family didn't need flowers in a greenhouse. The situation in the future would become more and more complicated. In the end, who could inherit the position of the head of the family and support the Yeh family, Ye Xuanji didn't have absolute certainty.
Therefore, he must be using the competitive relationship to choose the best of the two sons. Now, it seems that the competition between the two has reached a white-hot stage because of the appearance of Tang Zheng.
As for the support of most people for Ye Tianming, Ye Xuanji saw it clearly. Of course, this was also a matter of course.
After all, if Ye Tianming hadn't found so many supporters in the family over the years, then his ability would be too weak. Ye Xuanji would directly look down on him.
Ye Tianlei was unable to restrain his anger. He stood up and said, "If you can't tolerate Tang Zheng, then you can't tolerate Ye Tianlei. Tang Zheng is my son-in-law. I naturally have to protect him to the end."
Ye Tianlei's tone was very firm, which surprised many people. After all, in the face of so many people, he could still insist on his opinion. This required a huge sacrifice.
Does Tang Zheng have such great charm?
Is it worth Ye Tianlei to protect him at all costs?
Ye Tianlei didn't think about whether it was worth it or not. The two sides had known each other for a long time. Tang Zheng was branded in Ye Tianlei's heart step by step, and his weight was getting heavier and heavier. Ye Tianlei valued and even admired Tang Zheng from the bottom of his heart.
Such a rising star couldn't be buried, so he had to fight for an opportunity for him.
Feng Siniang also stood up and stood beside Ye Tianlei. This couple was exceptionally united. They didn't hesitate to go against everyone else for Tang Zheng.
The couple looked at each other. Feng Siniang pursed her lips and smiled, "How can you leave me out of this kind of thing? I want this handsome young man as my son-in-law. If others want to ruin my good fortune, they have to go through me, Feng Siniang."
Looking around, her eyes stayed on Ye Tianming for a long time.
Ye Dingdang was moved. These were her parents. For her happiness, they didn't hesitate to go against the rest of the family. This required great courage and decisiveness.
Tang Zheng was also very emotional. What did he do to deserve this family of three to protect him like this?
At this moment, he had no reason to stand behind indifferently. Therefore, he also stood up without hesitation. He smiled at the two of them and said, "Uncle Ye, Aunt Feng, thank you."
"We're family. There's no need to be so polite. Don't worry, we're here." Feng Siniang patted Tang Zheng's shoulder and said heroically.
Tang Zheng nodded and faced the others, saying, "It seems that you didn't understand what I said earlier. I don't know most of you and have nothing to do with you. Therefore, your attitude is worthless to me."
"Brat, you're talking nonsense!" Someone shouted.
Tang Zheng waved his hand and said, "I haven't finished yet. Don't jump out so quickly. I only have relations with three people here. These three people. "
Tang Zheng pointed at Ye Dingdang's family of three and turned to the others. He continued, "As for you, I don't want to have anything to do with you. Therefore, you have no right to tell me what to do. You can't wait to cut off your relationship with me. In fact, I have nothing to do with you. Why should I cut off my relationship with you?"
Tang Zheng's words had basically offended the other party, including Ye Xuanji. However, this was not because of Tang Zheng's impulse. He had already thought it through on the way here.
His relationship with the Yeh family was actually not that complicated. The link that maintained this relationship was Ye Dingdang's family of three. As for the others, they were insignificant in Tang Zheng's eyes. He didn't care about their attitude.
Ye Tianlei's expression suddenly changed. He quickly pulled Tang Zheng's clothes and whispered, "Tang Zheng, don't talk nonsense. I'll deal with it."
Ye Tianming laughed in schadenfreude. He was really useless. Tianlei was destined to fail to find such a son-in-law.
Ye Tianming did not give the other party a chance. He could not wait to make things difficult. He pretended to be indignant and said, "They look down on our Yeh family. If we rush to claim kinship with them, won't we become a laughing stock? Our Yeh family's reputation will be ruined. How can we face the ancestors of the Yeh family?"
"Yes, Tianming is right!" Many people agreed.
Ye Tianlei wanted to argue, but he heard Ye Xuanji, who had been silent all this time, roar, "Enough! All of you, shut up! "
Everyone was as silent as cicadas in the winter.
Ye Xuanji looked at Tang Zheng with a complicated expression. His mood was even more complicated. Cultivators were a double-edged sword. There were many miraculous things about them. Just like how Tang Zheng had the Life Continuing Pill, there were also many drawbacks. That was, it would make the Yeh family the target of public criticism.
One gain and one loss. How to balance this was Ye Xuanji's biggest headache. However, there was no standard answer to this question.
Originally, Ye Xuanji wanted to see Tang Zheng's attitude. If he sincerely pledged his allegiance to the Yeh family and revealed the many secrets and miraculous things about cultivators to the Yeh family, then Ye Xuanji would be able to protect Tang Zheng. After all, the benefits were too great.
However, he did not expect that Tang Zheng would not give him the chance. He directly rejected him and cut off all ties with the Yeh family. He did not even hesitate to offend so many people from the Yeh family.
If Ye Xuanji continued to stubbornly protect Tang Zheng, the others would have a lot of opinions. This was not beneficial to the unity of the family. Compared to the possible benefits, this was too risky. The gains did not make up for the losses.
In addition, the relationship between Tang Zheng and the Martial Sect had already reached its climax. He had even captured the Martial Sect's captive. This was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any time. It could also affect the Yeh family.
Therefore, at this time, Ye Xuanji had already made up his mind. He would completely cut off all ties with Tang Zheng. As for the relationship of fiancé and whatnot, there was no formal ceremony. It was just a verbal relationship. It was easy to cut off all ties.
Seeing his father's gloomy face, Ye Tianlei panicked in his heart. He did not give up and said, "Father, Tang Zheng is young and impetuous. Our Yeh family is indebted to him …"
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Ye Xuanji with a wave of his hand, "Enough!" Then, he turned his gaze and stared at Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng calmly dealt with it. Their eyes met, but he was still not at a disadvantage, which made Ye Xuanji extremely surprised. In fact, Ye Xuanji was only at the first level of the Grandmaster Stage, which was one level lower than Long Xuanyuan. How could Tang Zheng be afraid of him?
Therefore, whether or not he had the help of the Yeh family did not make much of a difference to him. If he allowed the other party to get involved in his own affairs, the other party would use this as an excuse to threaten him.
In addition, the most important point was that Tang Zheng did not know what kind of situation he was about to encounter. Whether it was dangerous or not, he could not be so selfish as to drag Ye Dingdang's family of three into this, otherwise he would be too selfish.
