He knelt down, wrapped his arms around his 'uncle,' and said coldly, "Old man, my uncle is not a person without a master. I am his relative and the heir of the Cai family. Some people with ulterior motives should stop trying to take advantage of the Cai family in the future."
...
The situation was actually quite awkward.
Because the person Cai Mingli was actually embracing was Master Huang, while the one he was criticizing was his uncle, Master Cai!
Everyone knew the young man had mistaken someone for someone else, and Master Huang was quite embarrassed, wanting to clarify the facts.
But Master Cai didn't think that way. After all, he was in his sixties and widowed. Suddenly, a young and handsome nephew appeared. He was a talented man, but if they met directly, he wouldn't be able to figure out the other's intentions. The other would definitely put on an act with him. But what a coincidence! The other had mistaken him for someone else. This was a rare opportunity for Master Cai to see his true intentions.
So he sneered and said, "Martial artists are all allies. Since you say you are the heir of the Cai family, all of you here are your senior uncles and senior masters. If you say someone has ulterior motives, are you perhaps referring to... us?"
From Cai Mingli's perspective, he had the support of the Nie family and blood ties. As for the other martial arts masters, they were a bunch of lazy bums with nowhere to go, so he naturally didn't take them seriously.
But trying to maintain his composure, he smiled and said, "Uncle, you flatter me. The person I was referring to with ulterior motives was just someone who was using the guise of caring for my uncle to plot against the Cai family business. You are not that person, are you?"
Master Cai pressed on, saying, "Besides our family's martial arts, the Cai family has nothing. What could anyone possibly want from us?"
After all, it was a dinner party, and he was with an old man. Cai Mingli was too lazy to argue, so he just raised his eyebrows and gave a cold laugh.
His expression seemed to say: I'm talking about you, you better watch out from now on.
As they were talking, Nie Zhao and his wife entered the room. Cai Mingli quickly helped Master Huang to his feet and sit down.
Yes, he was carrying a huge backpack, but only on one shoulder. He did it on purpose, because while helping Master Huang, he shoved the backpack behind him. Master Cai, who didn't have an elbow cane, had some difficulty getting up and was only halfway up when his nephew shoved the heavy backpack at him, shoving the old man back onto the sofa.
