Chapter 313 Mostly Sang Lin
Tonight he really put his mind at ease, as he was almost certain to be the young master of the family, and it was truly an honor.
Thinking of the doubts some people in Suzaku City had about his identity, he really wanted to go up to them right now and slap them in the face.
He calmed himself down and said, don't be anxious, these people will eventually slap you in the face.
While enjoying the congratulations and smiles from the crowd, he was also planning how to slap those who laughed at him in the face tomorrow.
Especially Rui Cong from the Cheng family, who relied on his daughter Cheng Wanyue's good relationship with Xia Mu and even wanted to arrange a marriage. He spared no effort to discredit and ridicule himself all day long.
The next afternoon, he wore the young master's attire customized by his family and swaggered onto Chaofeng Street, the most prosperous street in Suzaku City. As expected, he met Cheng Ruicong, the eldest uncle of the Cheng family, again.
He looked at Dongfeng Linyuan, who was wearing the attire of the young master of the Dongfeng family. He cautiously asked his drinking buddies around him if they had seen the Dongfeng family's announcement.
The friend told him that the Dongfeng family had not announced to the public that the position of the young master had changed hands.
He then walked over with confidence and said, "Isn't this the acting Young Master of the Dongfeng Family? Why is he wearing the Young Master's uniform today, breaking the rules?"
His friend said, "Master Cheng, you're right, the clothes of the young master of the Dongfeng family are really expensive and beautiful. What a pity."
Cheng Ruicong deliberately asked, "What's the matter?"
"Some people don't look like princes even if they wear dragon robes." The two of them burst into laughter.
Dongfeng Linyuan glanced at them, raised his head and said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't break the rules."
His behavior made people feel that he was guilty, so he laughed even more unscrupulously.
Cheng Ruicong also shouted: "Are you pretending to be the young master of your family?!"
"How is that possible? What I am doing now is what the young master of the family should do. I am the young master of the family." He spoke in a lower and lower voice, and at the end, it seemed as if he didn't dare to say anything more.
Cheng Ruicong felt that he was guilty. All kinds of obscene words came out of his mouth, even cursing Dongfeng Xiyue.
"You don't have to be the young master to do the young master's work."
"That's right, everyone knows that your little sister is too embarrassed to go out, so you can take advantage of her."
"Hey, hey, when are you going to ask your little sister to come out so we can have a drink together?"
Dongfeng Linyuan was so angry that his face turned red: "You can't talk nonsense. Which of these rumors are true? They are all nonsense."
"Oh, maybe this one is true."
"You, the Dongfeng family, are really good at doing things that are not legitimate. Your sister is pregnant before marriage, and you are not the young master of the family, but you are here showing off your authority as the young master of the family."
Cheng Ruicong said, "I think your Dongfeng family is just like this."
"How dare you slander the Dongfeng family! Aren't you afraid of death?" Dongfeng Wen scolded.
He appeared in front of them, watching all this, and thought to himself: These dandies are not young anymore, and they only know how to act violently and aggressively all day long. Why would I be with them, and look so aggrieved, nothing like I was at the banquet last night.
Dong Fengwen walked over, bowed, and said, "Young Patriarch, the Patriarch wants you to go to his study!"
When Cheng Ruicong heard Dongfengwen's words, he immediately glanced at his friend behind him. The man exchanged glances with him, indicating that the Dongfeng family had indeed not announced anything to the public.
They knew Dongfeng Wen, who was the right-hand man of the Dongfeng family. If even he called Dongfeng Linyuan the young family master, then Dongfeng Linyuan must be the young family master.
He looked at Dongfeng Linyuan with a pale face, pointing his finger at his face and said: "You, you, you..."
You spoke for a long time without saying anything.
Dongfeng Linyuan seemed to stand up straight all of a sudden, making people feel that his momentum suddenly increased, and he had the aura of a young master of the family.
It was as if Cheng Ruicong's aura suddenly ran to Dongfeng Linyuan.
He said to Dongfeng Wen, "Second Brother Wen, Cheng Ruicong just now slandered the Dongfeng family and insulted me, saying that I stole the young master's clothes to wear. What do you think we should do?"
Cheng Ruicong just used it to establish his authority and spread the news that he was the young master of the family. Even if the master of the family did not want to make it public for the time being, he still had a way to spread the news.
So Cheng Ruicong felt the pressure exerted on him by Dong Fengwen, until he could not bear it anymore and knelt on one knee.
He also had to agree to Dong Fengwen to apologize to the young master of the Dongfeng family and ask for forgiveness.
Dong Fengwen put away his pressure and thought: It seems that the young master has set me up. He not only set up Cheng Ruicong, but also used me. The news that the master wanted to suppress will soon spread throughout Suzaku City.
Cheng Ruicong looked at Dongfeng Linyuan, who was looking up at him, and had no choice but to bow and apologize, saying, "Please forgive my gaffe, Master Dongfeng. I shouldn't have said that the clothes you were wearing were against the rules. I shouldn't have said that the Dongfeng family doesn't follow the rules."
Dongfeng Linyuan looked at Cheng Ruicong bowing his head in front of him, feeling very happy. He straightened his clothes and asked, "Was anyone talking just now? Why couldn't I hear clearly?"
Cheng Ruicong cursed inwardly. He knelt on one knee, a look of humiliation on his face, and said loudly, "Young Master Dongfeng, please forgive my gaffe. I shouldn't have said that the clothes you were wearing were against the rules. I shouldn't have said that the Dongfeng family doesn't follow the rules."
Dongfeng Linyuan said with satisfaction: "Remember, I am now the young master of the Dongfeng family. You know what to call me next time we meet, right?"
Cheng Ruicong, feeling humiliated, could only nod and say, "I understand."
Cheng Ruicong watched Dongfeng Linyuan strut past him, feeling resentful but helpless. He turned to his friend and said, "Didn't you say there was no news? It seems he really is the Young Master."
The friend had just confirmed this with his subordinates, and he said seriously, "There really isn't any news. Maybe it's just an announcement within the family."
Only then did Cheng Ruicong realize that there were many people watching the fun around him, and he realized that his embarrassing moment had been seen by so many people.
He went home dejectedly.
The head of the Dongfeng family looked at the express report in his hand and learned that the news that Dongfeng Linyuan became the young head of the family had spread throughout the city.
He was dissatisfied in his heart. The boss really regarded power as more important than anything else! If someone else took the position of young master in the future, he wondered if he could bear it.
Forget it, just let him be!
Late at night, in the Nanyuan study of Dongfeng Mansion, Dongfeng Linyuan was still reading the express newspaper and handling affairs.
A ball of demonic energy suddenly appeared in front of the desk.
Dongfeng Xiyue from Dongyuan was originally meditating, and she opened her eyes.
Dongfeng Linyuan noticed something strange, looked up, and quickly put away the newsletter on the desk.
In the past few days, he has tasted the joy of holding power and has begun to pay attention to his own safety. To put it bluntly, he is more afraid of death. Who would be willing to die rashly when they have power?
He knew that the person who could enter his study as if no one was there was most likely Sang Lin.
