Chapter 702 Kneel down and admit your mistake
This was a blatant insult to Lin Ping, and a chilling light flashed in his eyes.
However, before Lin Ping could make a move, Huang Jiayu was already furious and shouted back:
“Meng Qingchao, watch your mouth. He is my future son-in-law and Qingge’s future husband. His words represent Qingge’s will. If you don’t want to make a fool of yourself, you’d better leave now.”
It has to be said that Huang Jiayu's angry appearance is quite frightening; at least Meng Yuanping didn't dare to refute her.
Meng Qingchao was quite angry, but he didn't dare to argue further, since he needed Meng's help, so he lowered his stance:
“Aunt, he’s just a poor boy, he’s not good enough for Qingge, you shouldn’t speak up for him.”
Huang Jiayu ignored this low-level attempt to sow discord and responded calmly, "This is my family's private matter, and it's none of your business."
"Meng Yuanping, are you really that incompetent? You're completely subdued by a woman. If Qingge can't keep her appointment at Qingfeng Tower tomorrow, the Meng family is finished, and you won't have any peace in the east wing either." Meng Yuanlin still had an arrogant demeanor.
He was certain that Meng Yuanping feared him, but little did he know that the other man feared his wife even more.
Meng Yuanping was immediately in a dilemma, stomping his feet incessantly, feeling as if his heart was being gnawed by ten thousand ants.
He knew that Meng Qingchao was at fault, but he didn't want the Meng family to go bankrupt because of it.
If the skin doesn't attach, where will the hair stay?
The same principle applies.
Is this how you ask for help?
Lin Ping said, his eyes fixed on the ground.
Whether the Meng family is ruined or not is none of his business, as long as he can protect Meng Qingge.
“If you continue to be bossy, there’s no point in continuing this conversation.”
Huang Jiayu had long disapproved of Meng Yuanlin's behavior, and today she was determined to make him lower his stance.
"We were indeed in the wrong in this matter. We need Qingge to help us out of kinship and help the Meng family," Meng Yuanlin said with his head down, his old face wishing he could disappear into the ground.
His voice was not loud, but it was extremely powerful.
"This is still..." Huang Jiayu knew she couldn't push the other party too hard. She didn't understand the specific situation either, so she thought it was best to stop while she was ahead.
"This still won't work!" Lin Ping continued.
"You brat, what do you want?" Meng Yuanlin said through gritted teeth.
"It's simple, Meng Qingchao just kneels down and begs for mercy." Lin Ping put his hands in his pockets, looking completely indifferent.
Kneeling in the street?
This is the greatest insult; Meng Qingchao will never be able to hold his head high again.
"You...you say that again?"
Meng Yuanlin was trembling with rage, wishing he could chop Lin Ping in half with one palm, while Meng Qingchao clenched his fists even tighter.
Want to fight? I'm ready to fight to the bitter end. I'm just afraid you don't have enough parts to take apart.
As a master of the Black Lotus Realm, would Lin Ping be afraid of a mere weakling like him?
"I'll say it ten times and it will be the same thing: if you want Qingge to go to Qingfeng Tower, Meng Qingchao will have to kneel down and apologize," Lin Ping said arrogantly, displaying the demeanor of a spendthrift son from back in the day.
He had restrained himself a lot to fit his current status, but now he finally couldn't hold back any longer.
For Lin Ping, "To hit someone with a brick!" is a statement of fact, not a question!
Meng Yuanlin glanced at Meng Yuanping, hoping he would say something, but he had already turned away, not daring to make decisions in front of Huang Jiayu.
"Sister-in-law, is this also your idea?" Meng Yuanlin knew who was in charge and hurriedly asked.
"I can't control that. It's Qingge's business, and it's entirely up to her fiancé to decide." Huang Jiayu turned her head away and stopped talking.
She also realized that Lin Ping was someone who wouldn't let things go once he was in the right.
There were some things she couldn't say herself, so it was best to leave them to Lin Ping.
"Ah!" Meng Yuanlin roared in fury, "You unfilial son, kneel down before me!"
Meng Qingchao was somewhat bewildered, not expecting things to develop to this extent.
Even though he was unwilling, he dared not disobey his father's orders.
Pfft!
With a crisp sound, Meng Qingchao's knees slammed hard into the ground.
In an instant, he felt he had no face to live in this world. To cover up his embarrassment, he shouted loudly, "It's all my fault, Meng Qingge, please forgive me this time!"
When people are excited, they often like to use a louder voice to cover up their inner fears, and Meng Qingchao is a prime example of this.
"Yun'er, what's happening outside?"
Inside her boudoir, Meng Qingge lay on the bed and asked.
"Hehe, Young Master Lin is so impressive! He actually made Meng Qingchao kneel down and apologize to you. The neighbors are watching now. From tonight onwards, he'll never be able to hold his head up again," Yun'er said excitedly.
"This..." Meng Qingge was stunned, not knowing how to evaluate Lin Ping's shameless behavior.
"Aunt Huang, let's go back inside, it's windy outside."
Lin Ping said with concern, but ignored Meng Qingchao kneeling on the ground.
"Lin Wuqing, what do you mean? Is Meng Qingge going to Qingfeng Tower or not?" Seeing that Lin Ping was about to leave, Meng Qingchao went completely crazy. He had probably knelt for nothing.
“Of course I won’t go. What if my cold gets worse? You need to understand that this kneeling is to apologize, not to ask Qingge to do things for you,” Lin Ping said calmly.
"You little brat, you tricked me!" Meng Qingchao charged at Lin Ping, baring his teeth and brandishing his claws, clearly intending to fight him to the death.
Bang!
A heavy punch landed on Meng Qingchao's nose, leaving his face bruised and bleeding profusely.
"My brother-in-law said that you have to be quick, accurate and ruthless when you strike!" Meng Qingchao withdrew his fist and said, mimicking Lin Ping's tone.
"Fan'er, well done. You'll get a chicken leg as a reward tonight."
"Thank you, brother-in-law!"
The two of them, working in unison, almost made Meng Qingchao faint from anger, or perhaps they knocked her unconscious.
"Go back and tell the old lady that if she wants Qingge's help, she has to come in person." After uttering these harsh words, Lin Ping helped Huang Jiayu through the gate, ignoring the two stray dogs outside.
"Lin'er, have we gone a bit too far? Will the old lady really come?" Huang Jiayu was a little unsure.
She could maintain a tough stance in front of Meng Yuanlin, but she couldn't be tough in front of the old lady.
"She'll definitely come as long as she doesn't want the Meng family to go bankrupt," Lin Ping said confidently.
"What if the old lady wants to fight to the death? We in the east wing won't benefit at all." Huang Jiayu still felt that this matter was not safe and perhaps should not be left to Lin Ping to handle entirely.
"Since Qingge was able to close this deal, it proves her ability. Doesn't Aunt Huang trust her own daughter?" Lin Ping offered an excuse.
Not to mention Huang Jiayu, even Meng Qingge herself was kept in the dark.
"Lin'er, I know you've been trying your best to help Qingge, but she's proud and sometimes speaks without thinking. Please don't take it to heart. There's one thing you can rest assured about: since I promised Qing'er the marriage, I will definitely keep my promise," Huang Jiayu said with concern.
"Aunt Huang, what kind of person is my mother?" Lin Ping asked casually.
