When Mu Tingfeng called out “Mom”, it was like thunder exploding right in front of everyone. Generally speaking, there were only two people who could make Mu Tingfeng call them mother, one was his own mother, and the other was his wife’s mother.

  But there was only one person surnamed Su who could make him call her mother, that was Mu Tingfeng’s own mother, the current headmistress of the Mu family!

  The face of the woman, who gritted her teeth in anger because Joy had suddenly shouted words of rebuttal, now became completely pale after hearing Mu Tingfeng called “Mom”.

  This woman turned out to be Mu Family’s Mrs. Mu, who had been living abroad, the Grandma Su that brought him a lot of things to eat, according to that kid just now. And she had just mocked that kid as an ill-bred beggar, isn’t that equivalent to her indirectly insulting Mrs. Mu as an ill-bred?

  Realizing this, the woman’s entire body began to tremble.

  First, it was President Mu’s wife and child, then it was his own mother. Now, she had basically offended President Mu’s entire family.

  After the crowd returned to their senses from Mu Tingfeng’s call of “Mom”, those gazes that were fixed at the woman were now tinged with inquisition and hesitation.

  A few seconds later, someone in the crowd had started to say something. A loud shout just came out among them. “I saw it just now. It was not that little kid who bumped into the big kid, it was the big kid who ran over and bumped into the little kid.”


  Following the first person, the others, whether they saw it or not, did not want to be left behind as they started to echo.

  “That’s right, that’s right, I saw it too. President Mu’s son was clearly standing obediently at the spot, it was that little fat boy who rushed over and knocked him down.”


  “That’s right, that’s right. President Mu’s son is so pitiful. He is so tiny. When he was knocked down by that fat boy, it must have been really painful.”


  “Exactly, I saw that the kid was being knocked down so hard that he even went rolling on the floor. Fortunately, there is a carpet on the floor, otherwise, no one knows how badly he could have gotten hurt!”


  “That’s right. The kid did not even know what was going on after he was knocked over. That little fat boy just started crying on his own, as if he had been bullied by someone. After his mother came, he also lied to her that he was the one who had been knocked down. What a bad upbringing.”


  “That fat boy’s mother was also wrong. She determined that her kid was knocked down by other people’s kids without asking it first. She should have seen the size of her own kid and the size of other people’s kid.”


  “…”


  All kinds of voices were coming in, targeting that mother and son unanimously.

  Zhao Youlin was comforting Joy while listening to various versions of those people’s criticism and mockery. A faint trace of irony crossed her eyes.

  This world did not lack people who kicked someone when they were down. When she came out to pick up Joy and confront the woman, none of these people had stepped out to say a word for them.

  Now that they saw Mu Tingfeng, they were like butterflies mingling around flowers, jumping out one by one to testify for them without having to be asked, which was really ironic.

  Zhao Youlin understood that. Mu Tingfeng, who had been involved in the business industry for so many years, was also well aware that these people were trying to please him. They were afraid that he would take it out on them, as they were just standing beside and did nothing to help.

  Mu Tingfeng ignored the loud murmur of these people. He turned his head and coldly looked at the three members of the family whose faces were now pale. “What else do you have to say?”


  “I…” The woman was just about to speak when the middle-aged man suddenly shouted, “Shut up!”


  The woman’s eyes widened instantly. Having been married for so long, her husband had always been subservient to her. He was always gentle and considerate. He had never yelled at her like this before.

  But soon she understood the current situation. She reluctantly lowered her head and said nothing more, but she secretly planned to teach him a lesson when they went home later!

  The middle-aged man heaved a sigh when he saw that the woman did not act up on the spot. He smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into a line. He flatteringly stepped forward and said, “As his parents, this is our fault indeed. It was just a little fight between the kids, yet it has escalated into such a huge scene. I will apologize to you here, President Mu. I hope you will be generous and forgive us this time.”


  This man was implying that this was just a scuffle between the kids and he should not make a big deal out of it? Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flickered with coldness. He said icily, “What if I don’t want to?”


  The middle-aged man did not expect Mu Tingfeng to not give him face at all, in the way he had directly shot down his peace offer. His face went from pale to green, and green to purple. It was really interesting.

  Just when the man was thinking about a way for himself to save face and get out of this predicament, a powerful barking sound broke the silence in the hall.

  Everyone at the banquet was simultaneously dumbfounded. They glanced at each other and thought with incomparable amazement who was the big shot character that had brought their dog to the banquet.

  Most importantly, those guards outside did not even stop the dog’s owner from entering!

  “Woof woof woof…” The loud barking again could be heard again in the direction of the gate, interspersed with a girl’s annoyed and disdainful whining.

  “Mu Wanting! Can’t you tell that stupid dog of yours to shut up? It’s barking so much every day. It’s making my ears go deaf. It’s really annoying. I’m going kill it and make a dog meat hotpot one day!”


  “Don’t you dare! This dog is a birthday gift from Uncle Tingfeng! Ling Yuemei, if you dare to kill it and make a dog meat hotpot with it, I am going to kill you!”


  The crowd at the banquet followed the sound and saw two little girls, aged around five or six, yelling at each other. Behind them stood a fierce Tibetan mastiff that was taller than them!

  The barking just now had come from this Tibetan Mastiff.

  Joy nestled in Zhao Youlin’s arms, his face looked miserable after all that crying. He was comforted by Su Ruixin and the others, who were feeling bad for him.

  When he heard a familiar sound, he raised his head suddenly and looked at one of the two girls at the gate. He called, “Sister Xiao Mei.”


  Joy’s voice was not very loud, but the entire hall was quiet at this moment because of the appearance of the Tibetan mastiff, so Joy’s call easily reached the ears of Ling Yuemei and the other girl.

  “Huh? Did I just hear Joy’s voice?” Ling Yuemei, who was arguing with Mu Wanting, paused. She frowned and stopped arguing. Then, she turned around to look.

  After seeing Zhao Youlin and Joy, who was in her arms, her eyes suddenly lit up. She left behind Mu Wanting and Ling Ran who had been forced to escort them here. She rushed straight toward Zhao Youlin and the others. “Aunt Zhao, Joy.”


  Zhao Youlin was stunned to see Ling Yuemei. Only when Ling Yuemei ran in front of her did she smile slightly and greeted her in a low voice. “Xiao Mei, are you here for the banquet?”


  “Yes, yes, are you here for the banquet too, Aunt Zhao and Joy? Wonderful. Joy, come down and play with me. Hey, Joy, what’s wrong? Why are you crying?”
