"Uncle Wang, where do we go?" Li Yang had nothing to lose today. The Young Master was so good to them. As the saying goes, if the ruler treats me like a king, I will repay him with my life — anyway, that was what it meant. This fellow had been taken care of by Hong Dali previously. If he didn't help Hong Dali out when he was in trouble, he wouldn't be able to sleep well at night. Therefore, once they entered the Hong Family estate, Li Yang drove at full speed!
"Go straight, turn right at the crossroad in front, turn left when you see the turntable. That's the biggest building!" Wang Mingyu had been here twice when he was Hong Weiguo's chauffeur. Therefore, he could still remember the locations of the main buildings.
"Okay, got it!" Li Yang drove the Prayer Angel to open the way, honking along the way. In less than a minute, they saw the building where the family meeting was held.
Four cars screeched to a stop in front of the Grand Conference Building.
"Miss Muxin, where's the Young Master?" Wang Mingyu hurriedly got out of the car with his lackeys. Once he saw Tang Muxin, he asked, "How's the Young Master? Is he injured? "
Although Hong Dali's body had recovered well, there were so many people around. If anything happened to him …
"He's inside. They won't let us in!" Tang Muxin anxiously said, "Uncle Wang, quickly think of a way!"
"It's too late." Wang Mingyu looked left and right. A large number of guards were already rushing towards them. Wang Mingyu decisively killed the two guards at the entrance of the meeting room with Geezer Wang. Then, he waved his hand and said, "Follow me in to protect the Young Master!"
Therefore, a large group of people rushed in. Once they entered, they were stunned.
All the descendants present had fruit juice all over their faces. There were oranges, bananas, and kiwis. Many of them were lying on the ground, crying "Aiyo, aiyo". Looking at the banana peels under their feet, they must have slipped …
They were not surprised to see the mess on the ground. What was really out of their expectations was that Hong Dali was completely fine. He was still standing there munching on an apple. With a grin on his face, he asked, "Do you still want to fight? If we continue, I feel like I can fight for another five hundred years! "
"You … You're despicable!" Hong Anbao laid on the ground, his face full of hatred. "What kind of man are you to hide under the table!" He had accidentally stepped on a banana peel just now and fell tragically!
Hearing Hong Anbao's words, Tang Muxin and the rest heaved a sigh of relief.
Well, it seemed that Hong Dali had found a place to hide the moment the fight started. This kid was really cunning.
Tang Muxin held back her laughter and jogged to Hong Dali's side. She sized him up and asked, "Dali, are you okay?"
"Me?" Hong Dali took another bite of the apple. "Of course I'm fine. But my Brother Anbao fell heavily just now. I don't know how he's doing. Sigh, you really can't blame me. I was just eating fruits under the table and didn't do anything." As he spoke, he didn't forget to pat his stomach, a satisfied expression on his face. "I've eaten five apples, four oranges, three bananas, and two kiwis. I feel pretty good."
As they were talking, the entire conference room was surrounded by guards. After a while, someone outside the door shouted, "Old Elder Hong Tu, Second Elder Hong Wei, and Third Elder Hong Ying have arrived —"
Instantly, the entire conference room was extremely quiet. Hong Dali and the rest turned around to look outside the door. The guards blocking the door instantly separated, creating a path in the middle. Then, three people slowly walked in.
The person in the middle had two inches of white eyebrows and an inch of white beard. Although there were many wrinkles on his face, his face was ruddy and his eyes were bright. He wore a black Chinese tunic suit and held a golden crutch in his hand. Needless to say, he was the current Old Elder of the Hong Family, Hong Tu, Old Master Hong Tu!
The old man on Hong Tu's left wore a dark red Tang suit with gold coins all over it. He wore a round black hat on his head and squinted his eyes. In his hands, he held a pair of fitness balls made of blood jade and twirled them around. He had a kind smile on his face. He was the other branch, Elder Hong Wei, who was of the same generation as Hong Tu.
The third person was an old granny with a head full of silver hair. Her back was slightly hunched and she held a dragon-headed crutch carved from high-quality rosewood. She looked similar to Old Matriarch She from the Yang Family. Naturally, she was the only woman of Hong Tu and Hong Wei's generation, Elder Hong Ying.
Behind the three of them was another handsome man. He wore a silver-gray suit without a tie and had his hair combed back. He was Hong Anbao's father and Hong Weiguo's fourth brother, Hong Jianye.
Once the four of them arrived, they looked around. Hong Tu slammed his crutch on the ground and humphed. "Look at what you've done! The conference room is such an important place. What's going on? "
Once Hong Anbao saw the situation, he crawled up and ran over to complain. "Old Elder, Hong Dali did something sneakily to me. My waist is still hurting now. Old Elder, you must seek justice for me!"
Once he started, Hong Jianye, who was behind him, immediately chimed in. "That's right, Old Elder. The descendants of the family are not allowed to lay their hands on the descendants of the same clan. Although it's inevitable for children to bump into each other, fighting in such an important place has broken the family rules. If we don't do anything about it, I'm afraid it'll be hard to convince the others."
"Gathering people to fight in the family's conference room, what a scandal!" Old Elder roared, causing all the descendants present to tremble in fear. He had originally intended to directly disqualify everyone present, but as the saying goes, the law doesn't punish the masses. With so many people present, he couldn't possibly disqualify all of them. In the end, he only sighed softly.
Afterward, he turned his head to look at Hong Dali. His originally serious face instantly became full of affection. He didn't mention the matter there first, but smiled and asked, "Dali, I see that your complexion is much better than before. How's your body?"
Hong Dali grinned and walked forward, hugged Hong Tu's arm, and said, "Big Grandfather is still the one who cares about me. Hehe, my body is much stronger than before. At least it's fine for me to run and jump around. On the other hand, Big Grandfather, you're blessed with a veil, majestic aura, rosy complexion, white hair, and youthful complexion. You're getting younger and younger. "Afterward, he greeted Hong Wei and Hong Ying." Hello, Second Grandfather, hello, Third Grandmother! "
Wang Mingyu, who was listening at the side, drew in a cold breath. This Young Master Dali's skin was really thick. This bootlicking was awesome!
Thinking about it, it was normal. This kid enjoyed being a prodigal, his skin was probably as thick as the city walls.
Upon hearing Hong Dali's words, Hong Tu was very happy in his heart. He smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years, and your mouth has become sweeter, hehe."
He laughed and patted the back of Hong Dali's hand. Afterward, he turned his head to look at Tang Muxin, who was standing not far behind. Seeing that her rosy cheeks were as beautiful as a flower, her eyes were full of brilliance, and her face was extremely beautiful. She vaguely resembled his old comrade Tang Fei from back then. He instantly asked gently, "Lass, you're Tang Fei's granddaughter, Tang Muxin, right?"
Upon hearing Hong Tu's question, Tang Muxin pursed her lips into a smile and obediently went forward to greet him. "Tang Muxin greets Grandpa Hong Tu. Hello, Grandpa Hong Tu. "
Upon hearing that, Old Master Hong Tu's appetite was greatly stimulated. He smiled and said, "Good, good. Aiya, you're good-looking, good-looking!" As Hong Tu spoke, he searched all over his body. After searching for a long time, he took out a jade bracelet. "Lass, I didn't bring anything good with me. This jade bracelet is just so-so. I'm giving it to you, don't mind."
Hong Ying, who was at the side, smiled and said, "Lass, Old Elder has taken out all his trump cards. Although the quality of this bracelet is ordinary, its significance is extraordinary. It's from that time when Old Elder was in danger … "
Hong Tu's old face blushed. "Don't mention the past."
Hong Ying smiled and didn't say anything else.
At this moment, no matter how stupid Tang Muxin was, she knew that this bracelet had extraordinary significance. She originally didn't want to accept it, but after thinking about it, if she accepted it, Hong Dali's side would be much more confident. Thus, she instantly put it on and smiled. "Thank you, Grandpa Hong Tu."
Hong Tu's wrinkled face was full of smiles. "Good child. Yup, straightforward. You have the temper of your grandfather back then!"
Speaking of which, this was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but Hong Jianye insisted on reminding him at the side. He repeated what he had said earlier. "Old Elder, the descendants of the family are not allowed to lay hands on the descendants of the same clan. Although it's inevitable for children to bump into each other, fighting and causing a ruckus at such an important place has broken the family rules. If we don't do anything about it, I'm afraid it'll be hard to convince the others. I know you dote on Dali, but don't you think it's better to change the timing? I'm also afraid that it won't be a good influence. This rule can't be broken. "
Hong Tu's mouth twitched as he listened. This useless fourth son of his had always been petty and jealous of Hong Weiguo's business talent. He even wanted to get more benefits for his son, Hong Anbao. How could Hong Tu not know this?
But what he said was right. The family rules were there, and as the Old Elder, he naturally had to set an example. Thinking up to this point, Hong Tu looked at Hong Dali with a flash of kindness in his eyes. He softly sighed and then asked, "Dali, do you have anything to say?"
"Me?" Hong Dali sniffled and grinned. "Originally, I came here today to apply for leave from you, Big Grandfather. You also know that I usually squander a little. I thought that it wouldn't be appropriate for me to come at such an important occasion where the family chooses the most outstanding descendants. Those little things that I usually fiddle with are just so-so. Luckily, I didn't seem to have lost any money, and this selection of the most outstanding descendants won't be given to me."
After Hong Dali said this, Hong Anbao and Hong Jianye's faces instantly turned green.
After such a long time, this fellow came here today to apply for leave. In the end, after such a torment, this fellow didn't want to leave again!
Hong Anbao felt bitter in his mouth. If he had known this would happen, why would he have done all these? Wouldn't he have just waited for him to apply for leave and leave?!
