Chapter 1348: Chapter 1348: Must Not Faint (2)
Everyone was a bit stunned; nobody expected the Miss to have such a fiery temper, cursing as soon as she opened her mouth. Were they truly not afraid of offending anyone? But then again, upon further thought, they genuinely had no fearâthe branch led by Dong Yun had always relied on the support of the main family line.
Of course, all members of the Dong family were under the care of the main line.
âYouâve got the guts, donât rely on others, donât scheme against your own family,â Ruxin glared at Dong Wenjiang. âGo out and make money, support your own bunch, and I might regard you more highly.â But what about you? Youâre still coming over here, bossing me around. Who the hell do you think you are?â
Dong Wenjiang suddenly felt as though something was choking him, and he was struck dumb, unable to utter another word.
âGet lost,â Ruxin was truly angry. âOtherwise, Iâm really afraid I wonât be able to control myself from rewarding you with a Medicine Pill, and youâll die a very ugly death.â Who are these people?
Without any attempt to hide his action, Dong Xiang gave Ruxin a thumbs up. He had long found this paternal uncle displeasingâalways acting high and mighty due to his seniority. However, given his place in the family hierarchy, the younger members didnât feel it was their place to say much. Now someone had taken the lead, and he was naturally willing to follow along, especially since Dong Xun, his grandfather, hadnât stopped his granddaughter, which clearly indicated his support.
Dong Wenjiang, berated by Ruxin, actually felt guilty and involuntarily took two steps back, not paying attention, and ended up stumbling and falling over.
The surrounding people immediately showed looks of disdain, and some even laughed aloud. Although the laugh was faint, Ruxin still caught it and looked over to see a plainly dressed young man in a corner unable to contain his grin. When he met Ruxinâs gaze, his face instantly turned red.
Ruxin slightly raised her eyebrows, then shifted her gaze away.
Dong Yun felt as if the face he had maintained for decades was being mercilessly trampled on the ground by this brat in front of all the clan members. He was overwhelmed with shame, and so, his eyes rolled back, and his body leaned backward as if he was about to faint.
Dong Wenjiangâs wife, who was quite astute, saw her man still sitting on the ground and hurried forward to help him. But before she could reach Dong Yun, she already started shouting, âGrandfather, you canât die from angerâŠâ
Everyoneâs faces changed at once, especially Dong Xunâs. If Dong Yun really fainted, it would indeed be his fault.
However, Ruxin let out a laugh and quickly reached out to support Dong Yun, âOld Boss, you canât faint now. If you do, my grandfather will have to bear the reputation of having angered his uncle to death, and we canât let him carry that burdenâŠâ
Indeed, Dong Yun wanted to faint. It not only provided a dignified way to leave but also would trouble Dong Xunâs household. Later, he could claim heâd been unwell all along and request the young lady to take care of him, but who would have thought that the girl, gripping his arm and supporting his shoulder, would make it impossible for him to faintâŠ
By now, Dong Wenjiang had also gotten up, but seeing Dong Yun with eyes wide open, he instinctively swallowed his saliva. Whatâs wrong with Grandfather? Why hasnât he fainted?
âSince you havenât fainted, you should go back,â Ruxin slightly raised an eyebrow. âAfter all, the Old Boss was vigorous enough just now to ruin a tableful of food, which shows you donât really care for it, right? Wasting food is shamefulâŠâ
âIâŠâ Dong Yun didnât want to leave. He hadnât annoyed the other party enough yet, his face turning red with frustration.
