Chapter 461 - Let’s See Who is the Shameless One (1)
Zhao Yifei had lost control of himself. Meanwhile, Zhao Youming, who stood in the middle of the crowd, appeared to be the calmer of the two. Of course, he had only looked so on the surface.
In fact, Zhao Youming had been struck dumb and rooted on the spot. He stared at Han Yichen who was standing next to the former master. He looked incredibly similar to Zhao Shunrong. Upon observing this, Zhao Youming’s expression slightly turned pale.
Zhao Youlin’s words echoed in his ears. Han Yichen was Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong’s own flesh and blood. He was the official eldest grandson of the Zhao family. Han Yichen was a more suitable successor and the first-line heir compared to Zhao Youlin.
On top of that, he was the president of Sheng Huang Group! He had the backing of the Sheng Huang Group, was he able to fight with him?!
How did it become like this? How did it turn out this way? Zhao Youming subconsciously clenched both of his hands that were dangling beside his body. A trace of malice flashed across his eyes.
No wonder Zhao Youlin had been interacting so frequently with Han Yichen and that Mu Tingfeng was not angry even though he had learned about this. They had long known the actual identity of Han Yichen. They had even planned everything in advance for today’s banquet.
Only he and Zhao Yifei were still being kept in the dark.
Thinking of this, the image of him blocking Zhao Youlin at Zhao Enterprise main entrance and mocking her for having seduced various men in different spots unwittingly appeared in his mind. At that time, Zhao Youlin had looked at him profoundly and remained calm. She must have been laughing at him in her heart, right?
When he thought of this, the hint of cold fury appeared more prominent in Zhao Youming’s eyes.
At that time, Zhao Youlin did not know that she had offended the certain one whose imagination had run wild all of a sudden. She had basically gathered all her attention on Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei.
“Yifei, why did you have such a dramatic reaction after you learned the news? Are you happy for them as well? Speaking of which, before this, you are the only official grandson in the Zhao family. You must have found it boring to be the only one. It’s only natural that you are happy to learn that you have an older cousin.”
Zhao Yifei had never thought that Zhao Youlin would say such words so matter-of-factly. He nearly fainted on the spot.
He forcefully endured his shoulder pain, gritted his teeth and said, “Why would I be happy over such things?! Zhao Youlin, are you trying to tell me that Eldest Uncle is following your father’s footsteps and that he has given birth to another younger brother of yours behind Eldest Aunt’s back? Hahaha! If that’s the case, I must congratulate you, then. You always find yourself an illegitimate older or younger brother wherever you go. You all are a family now.”
Right after Zhao Yifei spoke, Zhao Youlin did not have much reaction. Instead, Zhao Youming, who was standing behind the crowd, felt his face twisting up into a dark expression.
Zhao Yifei had said those words only to agitate Zhao Youlin. However, Zhao Youlin did not have much reaction even after some time. He felt like his effort had been in vain because it did not have much impact on her.
Zhao Yifei’s expression turned dark. Cold sweat was dripping profusely from his forehead. He used up all his energy and shouted once again, “Zhao Youlin, don’t be so arrogant. Don’t go looking for a son of a b*tch with an unknown background to suppress me so that you can exercise all your power in the Zhao family. I am the only official heir acknowledged by the Zhao family. The rest of them, regardless of whether they are blood-related, have nothing to do with the Zhao family.”
“From now on, they are related to us.” Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, a solemn voice that carried a trace of terrifying anger rose.
Zhao Yifei’s painful and trembling body came to a halt. He looked at the former master timidly, whose expression had turned black and looked extremely angry.
The former master did not speak in a soft tone like how he treated Joy. He had been very strict with his grandchildren. Unfortunately, no matter how strict he was, his grandchildren had been spoiled by their parents.
Before the former master had spoken, Zhao Youlin had already let go of Sun Fengzi’s hand. She casually pushed Sun Fengzi to Zhao Youming’s side.
Sun Fengzi stumbled and nearly fell down. She turned her around and wanted to strike Zhao Youlin. However, when she remembered his son who was still laying on the floor, she bit her lips and decided to run over to Zhao Yifei’s side. She asked anxiously, “Yifei, how are you? Shall we go to the hospital now?”
Unfortunately, Zhao Yifei did not heed her advice. He stared at the former master warily and greeted him with some difficulty, “Grandpa.”
Watching Zhao Yifei in his current state, Zhao Youlin smirked to herself. ‘This kid has been behaving arrogantly a while ago. He’s going to suffer now.’
Only the former master had the right to acknowledge his grandchildren. It was never Zhao Yifei’s turn to have a say in this. Unfortunately, this rascal had understood it all too late. He was destined to end up with a tragic fate.
Indeed, when the former master heard Zhao Yifei call him in his current state, he did not soften up. Instead, his expression grew darker. “Stop calling me your Grandpa. I don’t have a grandson like you!”
“Grandpa (Father)!” Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei’s expressions changed, and they shouted at the same time.
The former master was not moved by their actions. He said solemnly to Zhao Yifei, “Zhao Youlin had said clearly that Yichen is your eldest uncle and aunt’s own flesh and blood who had been in exile for years. We have already done the paternity test. You can judge him from his looks as well. It’s okay if you don’t want to acknowledge him as your older cousin, but how dare you even call him a son of b*tch?!”
Having the former master to acknowledge his own words had the greatest impact of all. Zhao Yifei was dumbstruck for a brief moment before he screamed out loud and miserably, “Ah…! My hand! Mother, save me! My hand… I’m going to be handicapped!”
The moment Sun Fengzi heard Zhao Yifei’s scream, she could not care much less about others. She dashed over to Zhao Yifei in a flurry of motion. She wanted to help him out but when she remembered the previous incident, she dared not simply move him.
Out of desperation, Sun Fengzi had to beg the former master. “Father, please save Yifei. Please save him. No matter what, he is still your own grandson. Even though you are very angry with him, you cannot deny the fact that he is your grandson. You can’t give up Yifei just because you have found your eldest grandson. Father, please save Yifei! Save him!”
Sun Fengzi might sound like she was begging the former master to save Zhao Yifei. However, Zhao Youlin interpreted her words as hinting at the former master that he had abandoned them right after he had found someone to replace them. Sun Fengzi had hinted that the former master was prepared to give up on Yifei and so he purposely found fault with them, causing them to be in such a devastating state. She had deliberately hinted all these to the crowd at the banquet.
Zhao Youlin had received the hints from her words. How could the former master not receive them as well? He narrowed his eyes dangerously and snickered, “You’re right. No matter what, Yifei is still my grandson. I feel heartache when I see him making such a fuss at the banquet. Judging from Yifei’s condition, I’m afraid it’s already too late to send him to the hospital. How about this? Uncle Zhao had learned traditional massage in a medical school back in those days. Let Uncle Zhao give it a try. Na, go over and help him.”
