Chapter 515: Chaos
Li Jinxing's face became increasingly gloomy, while Lin's father, standing beside him, picked up a broom and hit his son fiercely.
"Okay, you just came back from outside and you're already courting death—"
Father Lin mercilessly hit his son on the back while shouting angrily, "I was wondering why you insisted on asking the Second Young Master to drink in broad daylight. It turns out you were really up to no good!
He picked up the broom and hit her mercilessly, each blow harder than the last. "You said you wanted to go out and make your own way, and I agreed. But you went out there and learned these harmful tricks and came back with them?"
Lin Fugui was beaten so hard by his father that he was in a state of panic. He repeatedly dodged his father's broom with his head in his hands, and did not forget to defend himself: "Dad, stop, Dad... I didn't mean to... Dad, please be gentle..."
"I wish I could beat you to death!" Father Lin glared at him fiercely. Even though he was out of breath from beating him, he didn't want to stop sweeping the broom in his hand.
"You've lived your whole life in vain. The Second Young Master is our family's benefactor. Without his help, how could our orchard be able to flourish? How could you and your sister have enough to eat, dress, study, and go to college? Now, not only are you ungrateful, but you've also learned these despicable things and come back to plot against the Second Young Master and your sister..."
Father Lin was so angry that he staggered and almost fell. Seeing this, the housekeeper Owen hurried forward to support him, and directly helped him sit down at the table. He poured him a cup of tea and whispered to him, "Uncle Lin, don't be too angry, otherwise you will get sick..."
Father Lin shook his head, picked up the teacup and drank it all, then put the teacup heavily on the table and sighed softly, "Butler Owen, I really didn't expect that Fugui would do such a thing. It's really infuriating..."
When he said this, he looked up at Li Jinxing, tremblingly stood up with the help of the table, and was about to kneel down in front of Li Jinxing: "Second Young Master, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I taught my son bad things..."
Li Jinxing and Nie Yao were shocked and quickly bent down to help the simple old man up.
"Lao Lin, you don't have to apologize to me. This is not your fault..."
"It's because I didn't teach him well and raised him wrongly that he became so bold and presumptuous..." Father Lin shook his head and smiled bitterly, then shouted at his son not far away, "Get over here and kneel down to apologize to the Second Young Master!"
Lin Fugui had been hit several times by his father, and his body was burning with pain. He had never been beaten in such a long time outside, so he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He raised his chin and snorted coldly: "A man's knees are made of gold. Dad, you have no self-respect and backbone, but I still have! He is younger than me, why should I kneel down and apologize to him?"
"You—" Father Lin's eyes widened in disbelief. He pointed at Li Jinxing and sternly said to his son Lin Fugui, "Without the Li family, we wouldn't be where we are today! With the Second Young Master's status, he's willing to go to the fields to help us check the harvest and even help me hire a pest expert!"
"So what? Don't we pay rent to the Li family? And we have to share the orchard's net profit with them every year. We're the ones who are burdened, while they just sit back and reap the benefits!"
Lin Fugui sneered in dissatisfaction and said unhappily, "Dad, don't call these businessmen great benefactors. They just have a few stinky bucks, what's so great about that?"
