Chapter 861 - 750: Final Battle for the Bride (Part 2)

In the end, it was unresolved. They both just got exhausted.

Mei Shuqing lay on the ground, gasping for air, pointing at Tao Jiangfeng also lying down, saying, "Today, we’ve settled my son’s marriage. So many people are watching."

"You haven’t won yet, and you’re dreaming."

"Even though there’s no winner between us, it’s clear between them. Your sons can’t match up to my sons."

"So what if you win, I never said winning means agreeing." Tao Jiangfeng sat up quickly.

"I don’t care if you’re being unreasonable, I’m taking it as you agreed." Mei Shuqing let others help him up.

"Hmph, you wish. Get out of here, our family doesn’t welcome you. Go on, go!"

Mei Shuqing looked at him, didn’t argue, nodded with a chuckle, "Fine, fine, we’ll leave first. I know I’ve embarrassed you and you’re uncomfortable. This matter is settled." Knowing who calls the shots in the Tao family, Mei Shuqing turned to Wu Bing, "Saozi, the matter with the kids was agreed by Old Tao."

"He agreed, but I didn’t."

"So many people watched, it’s too late to say anything now." Mei Shuqing said, turning to call out, "Junzi, Xiao Yi, we’re leaving."

Mei Lang Jun was filthy, with marks on his face, yet while leaving, he was extremely pleased, and even smiled at Tao Jia in the courtyard, giving her a reassuring look.

Tao Jia smiled back and was about to speak to him, but Tao Jiangfeng entered and shouted, "What are you looking at? Go back to your room!"

Tao Jia quickly bowed her head and ran inside with a smile.

Tao Jiangfeng was so angry, watching his daughter’s behavior that he nearly passed out.

...

"Look at you, sneaking around with Tao Jia is one thing, but today you brought Tao Jia over in front of so many people. It’s no wonder if Tao Jiangfeng beats you." On the way back, Liang Qian said angrily.

"I just wanted everyone to know about my relationship with Tao Jia." Mei Lang Jun wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth, shrugged it off with a laugh.

"Even though it was reckless, Tao Jiangfeng really can’t do much now. The whole neighborhood knows about you two. It’ll be hard for his daughter to find someone else in the future." Mei Shuqing laughed heartily, it seemed they weren’t at a loss, but the Old Man there is hard to deal with.

"Is Xiao Yi badly hurt?" Mei Shuqing asked Han Yi, who was beside him.

"It’s nothing serious, just some bruises."

"Sigh, good thing I called Xiao Yi over, or those two sons from the Tao family would be hard to handle."

"I thought they’d find out tomorrow, who knew they’d find out so soon." Mei Lang Jun scratched his head in frustration.

Han Yi got home at midnight, after his second aunt insisted he go over to clean up his wounds before letting him leave.

They weren’t really serious injuries, just the kind you’d often get in the army.

"Why are you back so late?" Han Yi thought he was quiet, but Lin Wan hadn’t slept at all.

"Nothing, chatted with my second uncle for a bit longer, get some sleep."

"Hmm." Lin Wan waited for Han Yi to lie down beside her, hugging him as they drifted off to sleep.

... The next morning, Lin Wan noticed the injury on Han Yi’s face and asked him about it, only to find out that last night his godfather had dragged him off for a fight.

When they later saw Godfather and Brother Junzi, they were all covered in bruises. Originally, some guests from out of town were leaving today, they were supposed to see them off, but after what happened yesterday, they couldn’t just ignore it. Having neglected so many people yesterday, they now had to offer their apologies.

Old Mei looked at his son and grandson’s injuries, after asking about the situation, he didn’t say much.

Originally, their relationship with the Tao family had been strained due to Xiao Chi, now having Junzi to smooth things over could only be a good thing.

He thought it over last night and realized it’s actually not a bad thing.

Mei Shuping saw Old Mei wasn’t saying anything, so he knew where his thoughts lay, Junzi entering the Tao family would be a disgrace for their eldest.

"Dad, we don’t agree with this."

"Brother, resolve the important matters first before discussing this." Mei Shuqing’s intention was clear.

It’s telling him to sort out his own mess first. And with Mr. Mei, his expression turned even darker, he snorted as he left the room.

Old Mrs. Mei only got up after Mr. Mei left, quickly had breakfast, then went back to her room and didn’t come out.

With the maid around, Lin Wan certainly didn’t need to wash clothes herself.
