n“Ling Sheng! Kneel down!” Ling Zhensheng was burning with anger as he glared at Ling Sheng.

n

n“Zhensheng, let’s talk this out…”

n

n

n2

n

n“Talk this out?! Ling Jue is just a child, how could he lie to him to go to that place? Is this what a big brother should do?!”

n2

n

n“Dad, it’s not my fault! Ling Jue wanted to go!” Ling Sheng did not kneel. He looked at Ling Jue with a vicious gaze and raised his head stubbornly.

n2

n

n“Ling Jue, tell me!” Ling Zhensheng was furious. He looked at Ling Jue with a livid face.

n2

n

nLing jue raised her eyebrows slightly and chuckled. “Why would I go to that place? I can’t even get in if I’m underage. He was the one who brought me in. That’s why I can get in.”

n

n

n“Ling Jue! You…” Ling Sheng was so angry that he almost died. He felt that his jaw was starting to hurt again. He had dislocated his jaw when she pinched him just now. It hurt even when he tried to make a big move.

n2

n

n“Ling Sheng, kneel down!” Ling Zhensheng roared again. “Your brother is only fifteen-years-old. If you bring him to that place and something happens to him, where will I put my old face?!”

n2

n

nLing Jue’s lips curled up when she heard that. Ling Zhensheng only cared about his reputation.

nHehe…

n

n

n2

n

nShe chuckled and looked at the father and son indifferently.

n“Also, you deliberately told Yue Chan that your brother appeared in that place. What are you scheming? Do you want him to see me as a joke?!”

n2

n

n“Zhensheng, Ling Sheng is just a kid. How would he know that? He just heard from Captain Yue that a teenager from his class appeared there, so he just asked. Why are you so angry?”

n2

n

n“Why? You know that if something happens to Ling Jue in that place, I might not be able to hold on to my position!”

n2

n

n“It’s that serious?” Mu Xueling could not help but be surprised.

n2

n

n“It’s that serious?! What would a woman like you know? If the matter with Ling Sheng were to become serious and Yue Chan told the President that I let underage children go to that place, our family would be finished!” Ling Zhensheng was not trying to scare her What he said was the truth.

n

nHe was working for the emperor, and his neck was tied to his belt. He would be in trouble if he was not careful.

nIn his position, nothing could go wrong.

nMu Xueling looked at her son unhappily and gave him a look. “Sheng’er, tell me, what is the truth? If it’s true, apologize to your brother and apologize to your father.”

n2

n

n“I…” Ling Sheng glanced at Ling Jue then looked at his father, whose face was livid. He bit his lip and said, “It’s like this. The other day, my classmate told me that his brothers were having a class reunion and asked him to go with them. His brother was in the same class as Xiao Jue, so I told him to call my brother. Who knew they would go to such a place? They said they wanted to see for themselves. Then, after I brought my brother in, I felt annoyed and came out, but my brother was still there. His classmates kept telling him to wait for him…”

n2

n

n“I don’t know what happened after that either. I heard that you were going to attend grandpa’s banquet, so I immediately ran home. I couldn’t wait for my brother anymore. I really just wanted to help Captain Yue just now. I didn’t mean anything else!”

n2

n

nHe spoke half-truths and half-lies. The stubbornness on his face faded away. Instead, he was filled with regret. “I won’t go again in the future. Dad, I was wrong. I’m sorry, brother.”

n2

n

n“You…” Ling Zhensheng was so angry that his fingers were trembling.

n2

n

nLing Jue kept smiling faintly, but she did not say anything about forgiveness.

n

n

n“Go back and copy the core values of socialism for me a hundred times!” Ling Zhensheng could only say those words angrily. “As for Ling Jue, study hard. If you don’t get into No. 1 High School and lose my reputation, get out of the Ling family!”
