Chapter 195: Old Official
However, Chi Yang acted normal as he simultaneously held onto her and a dinner plate. He was relaxed and maintained a serious face, as if the soldiers were not talking about him.
Well, well… he really was fit to be the director-general. Even after being critiqued so much, he could still pretend to not hear it without batting an eyelid!
…
An hour later, Leng Qirui arrived at the military base.
The on-duty soldiers recognized Young Master Leng’s car, so they allowed the vehicle to enter the military base without any obstruction.
Immediately after getting out of the car, Leng Qirui rushed inside aggressively.
The door of the commander-in-chief’s office was vigorously flung open, causing it to hit the wall with a loud “bang” before it rebounded back.
Leng Jinpeng was undergoing intravenous infusion while talking to Qu Mingyi when he frowned and coldly barked, “Don’t you know that you have to report yourself before coming in? Get out!”
Ye Hai, who had been taking good care of Leng Jinpeng’s infusion bottle, immediately helped Leng Qirui to smooth things over, “Dad, Xiaorui did not do it on purpose, he…”
“That wasn’t intentional? Will it only be intentional when he starts holding up a gun to kill me?”
Leng Jinpeng had already been very angry even before Ye Hai opened his mouth to try to smooth things over. However, he got even angrier after seeing Ye Hai’s overly n.o.ble att.i.tude.
Leng Qirui’s anger was no less than Leng Jinpeng’s. Imagine, Leng Jinpeng had not even looked for a marriage partner for so many years, but when he finally did start looking, he immediately sought out Leng Qirui’s cla.s.smate, who was the person Leng Qirui liked. Leng Qirui felt extremely wronged.
Leng Qirui then turned around and slammed the door shut.
“Reporting to the commander-in-chief, Leng Qirui has something to discuss with you.” The voice of the guard, Chen Wei, came from outside.
“Let him wait!”
Leng Jinpeng’s cold and icy voice reached Leng Qirui’s ears. As he felt embarra.s.sed, the anger in his heart began to grow.
“Commander, Xiaorui is looking for you because he has something to discuss. Why don’t you listen to what he has to tell you?” Qu Mingyi could not bear to look at the increasingly tense atmosphere between the father and son, so he quickly suggested.
“He looks as if I have just stolen his girlfriend! This figure who wants to fight with me is supposed to be a son? Clearly, he is a foe! He probably just found out that I lowered his credit card limit and came over to argue with me. Tell me if it has been a waste for me to have raised this child??”
“Xiaorui’s is good-natured but there are too many misunderstandings between the two of you. Xiaorui is now in a period of youthful rebellion. He is a child without a mother, and he has no other relatives besides you. You also rarely go back. Thus, I suggest that since he has already found out about this matter and has grown angry because of it, you might as well calm down and listen to him. If he is being unreasonable, you should not be fierce with him. Talk with him. I don’t think Xiaorui is an unreasonable child.”
“Yes dad, you should just let Xiaorui in. He is a person who hates being embarra.s.sed, so in this case, where everybody is shunning him, where else should he turn to? What if he gets angry again and storms off, wouldn’t that cause the misunderstandings between you and him to worsen? There is no overnight feud between the father and son. If anything, it’s better to solve it in person.”
Ye Hai thought that his words would make Leng Jinpeng angrier, but Leng Jinpeng finally sighed and said, “Let him in.”
“Alright, dad, wait a minute.”
Ye Hai ran vigorously to open the door, but when he did, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.
Since he was acting like this, Leng Jinpeng had not yet given up on his spoiled son.
