"Hai Shen, you need to keep your sister in check," Xu Qigang looked at Hai Lan’s eyes as if he was looking at an object devoid of life, entirely devoid of any emotion. "Insults, threats, and intimidation can lead to prison sentences."
"I’m sorry! I apologize on her behalf. Please don’t mind her, she has a ntal issue."
"Brother, what are you saying? My mind is fine!" Hai Lan adamantly refused to admit there was sothing wrong with her mind.
"That’s enough!" If it weren’t for the fact that one shouldn’t hit won, Hai Shen would have liked to give Hai Lan a thrashing, "Don’t even think about stepping out of the courtyard, and from now on, just stay put quietly."
Mr. Hai had already agreed to arrange a better and more respectable job for Hai Lan after much coaxing. Now that Hai Shen had confined her again at ho, forbidding her to go out was undoubtedly a huge blow to her.
She couldn’t stand not being able to go out every day, let alone being cut off from the outside world.
"Don’t bother with such a lunatic." Sheng Ning scorned engaging with Hai Lan, the more she scolded others, the more it showed her lack of upbringing. After all, as a pampered young lady raised by a prestigious family, did she ever think she would bring disgrace on the Hai Family in such a manner?
On such an important holiday, standing at soone else’s doorstep and quarreling, it wasn’t necessary at all! If a dog bites you, do you bite back?
"Xiao Ning, let’s go!"
"Mhm!"
The couple turned and left, and Hai Shen turned his head back with a look of unprecedented coldness at Hai Lan. "Hai Lan, have you lost your mind?"
"I’m sorry, brother, I was wrong!" Hai Lan hung her head and mumbled, not daring to look at him, "You know well that my leg was hurt because of them. Sheng Ning is the real culprit behind the scenes, why don’t you help get even?" She couldn’t swallow this grievance.
"If you hadn’t sched against Yang Wenying first, would your leg have ended up like this?"
"But it was Yang Wenying who hurt first!"
"Still trying to justify yourself. Why would Yang Wenying hurt you? It was because you sched against Lu Dabao first. Don’t think everyone is a fool, and don’t think our Hai Family can cover the sky with one hand and let you sche against whoever you want." Hai Shen turned and walked into the house, seeing Hai Yunfeng and Hai Shuangjie standing on the steps.
"Father, uncle." Hai Shen nodded in greeting, then walked straight past them into the room.
Hai Lan was startled by the addressing; she wasn’t afraid of Hai Shuangjie but feared her uncle greatly. If he had heard what she’d just said, she definitely was in big trouble.
"Uncle, Dad!" She stood there hesitating, not daring to walk forward.
Hai Yunfeng’s face remained stern, silent, and seeing that his older brother wasn’t speaking, Hai Shuangjie also kept quiet. His daughter’s behavior was indeed disgraceful, especially since his older brother had heard it, making him feel embarrassed.
Under Hai Yunfeng’s imposing gaze, Hai Lan’s legs trembled uncontrollably, and it looked like she was about to lose her balance. Hai Yunfeng then slowly said, "After the new year, you should leave! If you don’t achieve anything and can’t change your rude nature or your short-sightedness, then never co back."
Hai Yunfeng was the most authoritative in the family, even Mr. Hai had to listen to him. For many years, he hadn’t co back. This year was the first he’d returned for the new year, and to encounter such an incident showed how short-sighted she was.
"Uncle!" Hai Lan, terrified, collapsed, unable to stand anymore, "Uncle, I don’t want to go to the Border Defense Group. You can’t see anyone for half a year there, and snow often blocks the roads. Going there would ruin my entire life, I don’t want to go, I’d rather die than go..."
