So certain?
Zhao Wenxun and Tang Li looked at Shen Linfeng with curiosity. They saw Shen Linfeng subtly touch his sideburns and then look at Sheng Chaosheng.
There's an old scar there; you can't see it unless you look closely.
After all, it's been a long time.
While Huo Yishen and Sheng Chaosheng were arguing again, Shen Linfeng quickly explained:
“I heard from my family that after Teacher Sheng rescued Teacher Xi, he was swept away by the water. He survived by hanging from a fallen tree branch. When he was pulled out of the water, he was still bleeding and half of his face was covered in blood. It was really scary.”
"Because of the severity of the disaster and the limited medical resources, Teacher Sheng was unconscious at the time. When the villagers tried to get him to the hospital for treatment, they discovered that the most life-threatening wound was on the back of his head."
"The back of the head?"
Tang Li countered with a slightly louder voice.
This prompted Huo Yishen and Sheng Chaosheng to turn around, after which Huo Yishen ceased fighting.
"The younger generation is still here, so I will not expose your shortcomings tonight."
Sheng Chaosheng, however, looked as if he hadn't had enough and stared at Shen Linfeng:
"Why aren't you leaving yet? I've already told you, I'm not attending the wedding."
Tang Li stepped forward, took Sheng Chaosheng's arm, and acted coquettishly:
"Uncle Sheng, don't you want to see me dressed up as a bridesmaid? Just think of it as a preview of sending your daughter off to her wedding. Don't wait until the day I'm actually getting married and then you cry like my own father at the wedding. That would be so embarrassing."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Chaosheng's expression softened.
"It's a pity that Yunshu won't be able to see the day you get married."
Having just finished his reflection, Sheng Chaosheng glared angrily at Huo Yishen and said irritably:
"It's fortunate that Yun Shu passed away early. Otherwise, if she were still alive, seeing you, Old Huo... your good son who is still alive, betraying and hurting her precious daughter like this, she would definitely fight you to the death."
Like Huo Yishen, Sheng Chaosheng also gave his old friend face in front of the younger generation.
But he's pulled this stunt again!
He loses control whenever Yun Shu is mentioned.
Tang Li quickly stopped:
"Uncle Sheng, just tell me if you're coming tomorrow or not. Don't regret it if you don't come, after all, I'm the bridesmaid and Fourth Brother is the best man."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yishen became anxious:
"You're going to be a bridesmaid, why don't you let Shen Yu be a groomsman?"
Shen Linfeng exclaimed, clearly not expecting Huo Yishen to ask such a question.
"You old hag, don't you have any idea why you wouldn't let your son be the best man? Someone like him, fickle, easily bored, unfaithful, and a heartless man who starts something and then abandons it..."
......
"Uncle, uncle, uncle, let's take it easy."
Tang Li couldn't stand it anymore and quickly stopped Sheng Chaosheng.
"I can't help it. Just thinking about how that brat treated you makes me want to beat him until his own father wouldn't recognize him."
cough cough...
My biological father.
We wouldn't know each other even if we didn't fight.
“I’m his biological father, you dare to touch him and see what happens.”
Huo Yishen began to protect his own.
The two are at odds again.
Sheng Chaosheng mocked him:
"Your good son not only abandoned such a good wife, but he also disowns you, his father who raised him for thirty years. He even published a notice in the newspaper to distance himself from you. How dare you say he's your biological son?"
These words struck a nerve with Huo Yishen, and he howled in pain:
"I raised him like my own son, and all the assets of the Huo family will be left to him in the future."
this...
Huo Yancheng burst into tears, saying, "My own son is like someone I picked up from a garbage dump."
"What a coincidence, I also raised my son like my own son, and all the assets of the Sheng family will be left to him in the future."
After Sheng Chaosheng finished speaking, he looked at Tang Li with a smug expression:
"Daughter, don't worry. Although Zhixing isn't my biological son, I'll leave everything I have to him. You'll not only have a comfortable life with him, but more importantly, I know my own son well. He's not the kind of fickle, easily bored, unfaithful, and treacherous person who abandons his lovers after starting a relationship..."
here we go again!
This time, it wasn't Tang Li's turn to tell them to stop.
Huo Yishen got angry first:
"Old man Sheng, is it appropriate for you to elevate your own son while belittling others? That's not kind at all."
Sheng Chaosheng, hands on hips:
"Why would you need something so thick on such a hot day?"
LOL!
These two old men are over a hundred years old combined, but when they argue, their IQ is at most that of a five-year-old.
Any more than that would be impolite to children.
Zhao Wenxun quietly tugged at Tang Li's arm and asked:
"Have they always been like this?"
Tang Li sighed:
"Probably so, they start fighting as soon as they meet."
The three younger relatives could only watch.
The two old men bantered each other without any regard for their image:
"Your son, to put it nicely, is devoted and faithful; to put it bluntly, he's just incompetent. He can't even find a wife."
Sheng Chaosheng snorted:
"So your son's all that? A heartless, fickle scoundrel, and you dare to brag about him? If I had a son like that, who treats other girls so badly, I'd break his legs, pull out his tendons, skin him alive, beat him every three days, and then beat him for three days straight..."
These words are like firecrackers; once lit, they just won't stop.
"Uncle, Uncle, my dear Uncle, stop, stop, stop. We can't say things too definitively. We need to leave some room for maneuver."
Tang Li was terrified that he would slap her in the face later.
But Sheng Chaosheng was fearless:
"Why should I leave him an out? He's so old, why should I leave him an out? Be careful the steps aren't too high, his old leg can't take them. If he's not careful, he might fall and break his leg. It's a small matter if he loses his life... well, so be it. He can go and repent in front of Yun Shu after he dies."
