"You unfilial son! You're becoming more and more unruly! You don't even know how to knock!"
Upon smelling the strong odor of alcohol, Xie Chi frowned even more deeply.
"How could I have such a good-for-nothing son! You idle away your days, associating with those low-class prostitutes! You've completely disgraced me!"
Xie Chi looked furious, wishing he could slap Xie Xuan a few times.
