Chapter 146 - Messed with the wrong family (1/2)
Dana and Fazhan still couldn't stomach the fact that their only son was in love with their daughter's coach and worse of all, it was the same Sara who was recently in a scandal. But they knew it wasn't time to talk. No one dared speak when Li Sun spoke. It was why they feared for their son's future since he had been countering her.
They only hoped Muchen would deny the allegation. Why would someone like him fall for someone like Sara? It if was a fling, they wouldn't be so concerned, even though he wasn't supposed to have a fling with someone like her either. They patiently waited for him to deny it. But to their surprise and shock, they heard him say
”Yes. It was my fault. I did fall for her even against her wish. So leave Sara out of this.” He spoke in anger and determination.
”Sure” Sun said instantly. Not minding the surprised look on all their faces. Heya, Hoy and Minde had a clue about it but were still surprised he had actually opened up in front of their grandmother. His parents on the other hand, almost literally died of a heart attack when he admitted it.
”She can stay. Heya can stay also.” Sun smiled. ”Settled now?”
They all knew something else was coming and impatiently waited for it.
”I told you all I came to fix things. I came to fix You, you, you, you” She pointed at the younger generation seated around the table. She started with Minde.
”Minde, you'll have to start working in the company from now on. And you'll start from the bottom and gradually find your way to the top. If you have any objection, then I'll make sure you get enlisted in the army— So, any objection?”
Minde shook his head. He didn't want that. What? Wearing ties and suits for five days a week and spending hours in the office instead of partying or car racing?
He looked at Muchen for support. But Muchen gave him the ”You just have to obey” look.
Minde still tried to say something. He was a man after all. ”Grand...grandmother.. I.. I know.. I'm not supposed to...say anythin—”
”Then shut up” Sun cut Minde off abruptly. Then she looked at Hoy's direction.
”Hoy is going to be engaged with the Song family's granddaughter Yang Aishu. You have a date with her this Sunday” She declared.
Hoy said nothing and only stared expressionlessly at her. They were all used to this woman dictating their lives so it wasn't something new or unexpected.
When she noticed Hoy wasn't saying anything or planning to say something, she looked towards Heya again.
”Heya my darling. I see you've been having fun with the Jin boy. He is not good for you. I'll find you a suitable groom soon. So hurry up with cutting down weight.”
Heya's fists tightened underneath the table but she kept a straight face. She looked at her parents to see whether they were making any effort to object, but they both remained quiet. Same with Minde's parents.
A groom for her? Impossible! She was going to school immediately she was done with her weight-losing journey.
”And.. I don't want to make a big deal about the commotion you caused singing in public. We'll have a private talk about all of that” Sun assured.
.
Heya's muscles tightened. She was fed up with this family. Totally fed up! She just didn't want to cause any trouble right now. Else, they may likely blame it on Sara's bad influence or ask her to leave Muchen's place.
