Chapter 940 - 942: Hongmen Banquet? Perfect Time to Crash the Party!
He Rongxuan, He Rongshan.
For most people, these names immediately suggest a brother-sister or sister-brother relationship.
Lin Fei had only been thinking about embarrassing He Rongxuan to avenge Mu Shanshan.
đ§đłđŚâŻđđŚđˇđŻđđŁđŚđ.đ¸đ°đ
But after hearing He Rongxuanâs reminder and seeing Mu Shanshanâs reaction, especially remembering the name of Mu Shanshanâs mother,
Lin Fei felt a bit awkward and frustrated.
Fortunately, Lin Fei was good at controlling his emotions, or more accurately, he was thick-skinned.
Remembering Mu Shanshanâs motherâs name, under the dual angry stares of Mu Shanshan and He Rongxuan, Lin Fei looked up at the sky, pretending nothing happened, and joked, "The moonlight is quite beautiful tonight..."
Knowing Lin Feiâs temper, Mu Shanshan stopped her punishment of him after he mentioned her mother and ceased his disrespectful mockery towards He Rongxuan. She gracefully removed her hand from Lin Feiâs waist.
Mu Shanshanâs anger subsided a bit, but He Rongxuan across from them clearly wasnât willing to let it go.
Just as Lin Fei finished speaking and Mu Shanshan removed her hand, two seconds later, He Rongxuan, coldly staring at Lin Fei, spoke with apparent disdain, "Mu Hong really is regressing. I donât know from which corner he found such a good son-in-law who canât even remember my sisterâs name. Next time I see Mu Hong, Iâll definitely have a good talk with him about what kind of father-in-law he is!"
Damn, he just had to hit where it hurts!
After He Rongxuan finished speaking, seeing Mu Shanshanâs glaring eyes on him again, Lin Fei couldnât help but internally mock He Rongxuan.
Although Lin Fei would like to coldly mock He Rongxuan as before,
But after understanding He Rongxuanâs identity, just considering Mu Shanshanâs feelings, Lin Fei obviously couldnât continue verbally attacking He Rongxuan like before.
Of course, the main reason was that He Rongxuanâs taunts were indeed justified.
Having accidentally forgotten his mother-in-lawâs name, Lin Fei really couldnât find a good reason to refute He Rongxuan at the moment.
Fortunately, He Rongxuan merely vented his grievances and didnât pursue the matter further.
After coldly staring at Lin Fei for a while, He Rongxuan shifted his gaze to Mu Shanshan, with hints of affection and guilt, speaking softly, "Based on what your father told me and the attention Iâve paid to you over the years, I have no doubt that youâre as outstanding as they say. Even if Rongshan were alive, she would be proud of you."
He Rongxuanâs praise didnât resonate emotionally with Mu Shanshan. Instead, after He Rongxuan finished speaking, Lin Fei naturally wrapped his arm around Mu Shanshanâs waist and gave He Rongxuan a proud look, "Thereâs no need for you to praise how excellent Shanshan is. I know my wife well enough. If thereâs nothing more, please donât block our way. Youâve already delayed us quite a bit. Itâs getting late, and youâd better return home, Mr. He. And by the way, tell your family to prepare, because the day after tomorrow, Shanshan and I will be crashing the party."
After Lin Feiâs words, the atmosphere, which had finally calmed down a bit, inevitably grew cold again.
It was even colder than at the beginning when Lin Fei mockingly insulted He Rongxuan.
Originally, He Rongxuanâs eyes were focused on Mu Shanshan, but because of Lin Feiâs words, he couldnât help but focus on Lin Fei instead, "I didnât catch what you called me just now. And why are you and Shanshan planning to come to my house the day after tomorrow?"
In response to He Rongxuanâs seemingly calm yet implicitly threatening tone, Lin Fei responded with a grin, "We both know you heard me clearly. But if you really didnât catch it, I can repeat it for you: Mr. He, when you return home, inform your family. Be prepared because Shanshan and I will be crashing the party the day after tomorrow!"
After hearing Lin Feiâs words, which seemed playful but actually had a hint of coldness, a flash of coldness passed through He Rongxuanâs eyes. He then clenched his fists and stepped toward Lin Fei with a furious and imposing demeanor, seemingly ready to punch him.
However, upon reaching Lin Fei and seeing Mu Shanshanâs protective gesture toward him, He Rongxuan took a deep breath and stopped in his tracks. He also relaxed his clenched fist.
"Youâre lucky you married Shanshan. Otherwise, just for what you said, you would have ruined your future!"
"The one who should consider themselves lucky is not me; it should be you, Mr. He."
"I remember telling you before that I am He Rongshanâs true brother!"
"So what?"
"You should address me as Mr. He!"
"I certainly shouldnât call you Mr. He. If I could, Iâd like to gain an uncle, but unfortunately, youâre not worthy!"
Because you never fulfilled the duties of a brother to a sister, youâre not worthy.
Because you never fulfilled the duties of an uncle to a niece, youâre not worthy.
No need for words; it was crystal clear to He Rongxuan even without Lin Fei saying it out loud.
Thus, after Lin Fei finished speaking, the previously imposing He Rongxuan inevitably fell silent.
Silence not due to choice, but because he had no ground to refute.
After silently bowing his head for a while, He Rongxuan looked up at Mu Shanshan, "Are you really intent on crashing the event?"
"Weâre not there to crash the event. But weâre also not there to celebrate."
Not there to crash, but not there to celebrate, rather to act willfully!
Willfulness is about doing things that arenât quite logical but remain within the bounds of morality and law.
As for what it exactly means, Mu Shanshan was clearly not about to disclose it to He Rongxuan.
Knowing he wouldnât get more details from Mu Shanshan, He Rongxuan didnât bother asking further.
Instead, after pondering for a while, He Rongxuan looked seriously at Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan, "I must remind you, if youâre not coming to celebrate, you might as well turn back now. Thereâre already some people in the family who are not very welcoming to you. If you wish to cause trouble the day after tomorrow, what is a birthday celebration for others will become a deadly trap for both of you!"
After He Rongxuan finished speaking, Lin Fei clapped and said, "If itâs indeed as you say, Mr. He, then thatâs even better! Honestly, I felt a bit uneasy about causing trouble at your familyâs birthday party. But since itâs a trap, I have nothing to feel guilty about. Mr. He, please return, Shanshan and I will definitely crash the event the day after tomorrow."
After speaking, Lin Fei lost interest in dealing with He Rongxuan further. He simply took Mu Shanshan by the waist and walked away...
