Chapter 163 - 162: Protecting You Completely
Seeing the look on Chu Lingxuan’s face, Manager Luo was startled and quickly bowed, saying, "I deserve to be punished for my mistake. I was thinking... since nothing bad has happened, it wouldn’t be good for Afu’s sake if Master had a falling out with Mr. Chen..."
He reasoned that Chen Afu was still just a needlework master, and the actions he had taken constituted quite a severe blow to the Zhaos and Granny Chen - he had really stepped up to defend him. Unexpectedly, the Master blamed him. It seemed that the Master valued Chen Afu far more than he had imagined...
Chu Lingxuan said coldly, "Nothing happened? If we wait for something to happen before punishing someone, even if we beat that old scoundrel to death, what good would it do?"
Manager Luo quickly responded, "My inadequacy is at fault, I failed to handle this properly. So now, shall I lead the team to The Zhaos’ Village?"
Chu Lingxuan waved his hand dismissively saying, "Forget it, what’s done is done, there’s no need for further actions. Uncle Luo, remember in the future, when dealing with some matters and some people, one must never hesitate or be reluctant to act. As long as no one is killed, all actions are justified. Today, by crushing the face of Mr. Zhao and Granny Chen, they surely wouldn’t dare to stir up any further trouble. However, just in case, we might as well continue to protect Master Chen."
Manager Luo quickly bowed in agreement.
Chu Lingxuan continued, "I’ll deal with the rest of these matters myself. Granny Chen has done all this for fear that I would learn of her previous misdeeds. Normally, I wouldn’t bother getting involved in the Chens’ family affairs, but now, it would be doing them a disservice not to pay a little attention. A few days ago, Mr. Chen went to Capital City on official business. When he returns, I’ll personally thank him for his mother’s concern about the Chus. With my grandfather’s blessing towards his father-in-law and with the validation of the officials, we’ll highlight how Granny Chen is putting on a show in front of the locals. Hmph, a country woman dares to mess with our Chu family... does she really think Master Chen is like Wang Juanniang, to be toyed around with at will?"
He quickly escalated the conflict between Aunt Chen and Chu Lingxuan to that of the Chens and the Chus.
