On this particular matter, the Xiao family patriarch had never conceded that Ye Yuning was the one who didn't want Xiao Shuo. He had always maintained that Xiao Shuo had simply grown tired of her.
To now be bluntly told by Xiao Linye that someone from *his* Xiao family had been the one rejected—this ignited the Patriarch's fury completely.
"You, you bastard, unfilial son, unfilial son..." the Patriarch pointed at Xiao Linye.
At this moment, he was trembling all over, his face contorted with rage.
Seeing him in such a state, Butler Zhong, worried the Patriarch might be angered to the point of illness, hurriedly said, "Patriarch, please calm down. You mustn't get so agitated."
"Seventh Master, please don't do this. The Patriarch's health truly can't withstand it now!"
Seeing that his attempts to persuade the Patriarch were futile, Butler Zhong turned to Xiao Linye, hoping he would stop talking.
But how could Xiao Linye compromise at this moment?
