"Do you really think you're something!"
Wei Pengju's eyes were bloodshot.
He wanted to handle him right at the gate, but his sister-in-law stopped him.
Now, seeing him being disrespectful to his father, even if Chu Shihan dared to come out and stop him, he definitely wouldn't hold back.
"Remember, this is the Wei Family. Don't think that even a small Deputy County Magistrate like you can keep your mouth shut around me, even if you're the Mayor."
Next to him, Zhu Defu wanted to intervene, but as soon as these words were spoken, he obediently kept quiet.
He originally thought of having Lin Fan introduce him to the Wei Family as a protective umbrella, but who would've thought things would turn out like this right after they met.
Right now, he's regretting it bitterly.
"The Wei Family is indeed arrogant. It seems what the common people say is true, the public security and justice departments are just legal hooligans."
Lin Fan continued to coldly observe the furious Wei Pengju, with a smile on his lips that conveyed disdain and immense confidence.
"I'll kill you!"
Such an insult, Wei Pengju couldn't bear it any longer, raising his fist, about to strike.
But the next moment, a stern rebuke made his fist freeze in the air.
"Pengju, do you want to end up like your brother, and go to jail?"
If it were someone else speaking, he would definitely ignore it, but the voice now speaking was his grandfather's, which made him freeze instantly, not daring to make any move.
At this moment, an elderly man with white hair, leaning on a cane, walked out from the back, his commanding eyes carrying a beast-like coldness, sending a chill down even his son Wei Zhengguo's spine, who quickly stepped aside without daring to speak.
"Grandpa, this guy has been weird and sarcastic since he walked in. Isn't he bullying the Wei Family just because there's no one here?"
Though Wei Pengju said this, he still lowered his fist, but with a reluctant look towards his grandfather, Wei Zhongting.
"If he sends you to jail, wouldn't that mean the Wei Family really has no one?"
Wei Zhongting walked towards the two with a smile, using the cane in his hand to give Wei Pengju a hard hit on the back, causing him to dodge to the side in pain. Wei Zhongting didn't reprimand him further, instead he smiled and looked at Lin Fan: "Your master was right, you really are quite brazen for your age. To be so bold in the Wei Family, you must be the first one."
"I'm just saying what others want to but dare not say. This isn't arrogance, it's being forthright."
Lin Fan adjusted his clothes slightly, smiling as he looked at Wei Zhongting.
Since the other party had already mentioned his teacher, he naturally wouldn't confront him head-on anymore.
"A fine 'forthright', as long as you don't mention the word 'kindness', I'll consider you honest."
Wei Zhongting patted Lin Fan's shoulder, looking gratified as he said: "If the Wei Family had a descendant like you, that old Wu would really be blessed, quite interesting!"
"Grandpa Wei, if the higher-ups aren't upright, the lower levels will be crooked. You've been a hero all your life, but your son truly needs more discipline, or it will really affect the younger generation."
Since even his grandfather was mentioned, Lin Fan had more respect for Wei Zhongting, especially since he started off with praise. As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling face, he couldn't possibly contradict him further.
"Alright, criticize them less, also consider giving me some face. Aren't we here to have a meal, come try our Wei Family cuisine."
Wei Zhongting didn't scold his son, nor did he defend him. After smoothing things over, he pulled Lin Fan to sit beside him.
The whole time, he paid no attention to Zhu Defu, after all, a small Deputy Mayor was nothing here.
"Everyone, sit down."
Once the two were seated, Wei Zhongting spoke up, hence Wei Zhengguo had to sit on the other side, and as the own grandson, Wei Pengju sat properly next to him, as did everyone else down the table. Daughter-in-law Chu Shihan could only sit at the far end, and although Zhu Defu was a guest, no one paid him any mind the whole time, so he could only sit in the lowest corner by the door.
"These are the second generation of the Wei Family, you should get to know them so that when you move around in the Provincial City, you'll know they are my Wei Family's descendants."
After everyone was seated, Wei Zhongting began introducing the people around, pointing at each one. Among them, the smallest official was at the proper bureau level, and there were two of proper department level sitting there. It has to be said, all the significant people of the Wei Family were present at this meal, but clearly, they weren't here for Zhu Defu.
"Grandpa Wei, as for getting connected, let's discuss it later. For today, I can't eat for free, I've brought you a gift."
Lin Fan looked around, and the looks in these people's eyes were cold and indifferent, clearly refraining from acting out of respect for Wei Zhongting, so he smiled faintly, and took out an antique ring from his pocket: "This item, should count as returned to its rightful owner."
"This..."
When Wei Zhongting took the ring, a trace of astonishment crossed his face, not only for him, but for Wei Zhengguo and others around, their eyes widened, as they clearly understood the importance of this ring to the Wei Family.
"You little rascal, I knew you could do it!"
After a long time, Wei Zhongting finally wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, and grabbed Lin Fan's wrist: "Alright, just for this ring, you will henceforth be a great benefactor of the Wei Family. If anyone dares to disrespect you, I'll erase them from our genealogy!"
