Mr. Huang snorted angrily at the kneeling man in front of him and said sternly: "Shangguan Ming! Who else would harm Jing'er except your Shangguan family? If you don't tell the truth, I will beat you today." I have to regret coming into this world!”
Shangguan Jing remained silent, his eyes wandering over the second uncle and Mr. Huang who were kneeling down to beg for mercy. He seemed a little confused about this situation.
Seeing this, Liu Nian explained aloud: "Idiot, when your cultivation level declined instead of rising, Mr. Huang suspected that your second uncle Shangguan Ming was behind your back.
So he brought all the Huang family's guests and went directly to Shangguan's house, just to help you vent your anger.
As for the cause? Just because of a suspicion..."
"Master Huang, you really misunderstood!" Shangguan Ming kowtowed and shouted: "Jing'er is no longer a member of the Shangguan family. She even changed her surname and is no longer qualified to inherit the position of head of the Shangguan family. How could I possibly There is still a need to harm him!
Moreover, this kind of decline in cultivation is rare in the world. With our Shangguan family’s methods, we can’t do it even if we want to! "
Mr. Huang stared at Shangguan Ming with burning eyes, his fat body showing indescribable majesty at this moment: "Shang Guan Ming, don't think that I don't know the little tricks you do behind your back!
Jing'er's declining cultivation level has now been made known to the whole city. Those gossips were spread behind the scenes by your Shangguan family.
You are worried that Jing'er's growth will threaten your status as the head of the Shangguan family, and you actually use this method to suppress Jing'er's reputation. Do you really think that my adopted father is just a decoration? "
Shangguan Ming shook his body, kowtowed several times, and cried: "Master Huang, I was wrong, I was wrong, I don't dare to do it anymore, please just spare me this time, please!" "
Master Huang kicked Shangguan Ming to the ground, pointed at him, and roared angrily: "I'm warning you, Jing'er is now a member of my Huang family, he is not only my son-in-law, but also my adopted son!
If you dare to do these little things behind your back again, don’t blame me for not caring about the friendship between our families! "
Shangguan Jing stared blankly at the angry Mr. Huang, the tip of his nose felt a little sour. This scene evoked memories that he had long forgotten.
After his parents passed away, the first person who cared for him was the fat man in front of him, who had gold teeth in his mouth, wore a yellow coat, and was dressed in a tacky and unkempt manner.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Liu Nian said jokingly: "On one side is your second uncle who is plotting against you! On the other side is your adoptive father who directly uses the entire family's strength to stand up for you because of the slightest suspicion without evidence.
At this moment, the so-called blood relationship seems so ridiculous! "
"Shut up, what do you know!"
Shangguan Jing roared at Liu Nian, and then looked at Mr. Huang. The soreness on the tip of his nose made tears roll down from his eyes. He said bitterly: "He only cares about my talent. He must really care about me." I will not stand idly by while I am being humiliated!
If he really cared about me, he wouldn't have forged the divorce letter and forced me to leave the Huang family! "
"Humiliation? Force you to leave the Huang family? Hahaha..."
While laughing, Liu Nian raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the environment changed again, from a room to a courtyard.
Shangguan Jing stood on a path paved with white stone slabs, looking at the scene in the courtyard, feeling some subtle feelings in his heart.
Because this is Mr. Huang's courtyard, and it is also the place where he often comes to express his true feelings.
The courtyard is surrounded by green willows, flowers and plants, a clear pool, and red fish jumping happily. There is a marble table in the center. Although this place is not magnificent, it is particularly refreshing and refreshing.
Two maids were squatting by the pool, feeding the fish, and seemed to be talking in a low voice.
Seeing the appearance of these two maids, Shangguan Jing felt angry.
He vaguely remembered that when he was still living in the Huang family, these two maids had laughed at him behind his back.
Shangguan Jing suppressed his anger and did not directly run up to take action like last time. He knew that what he saw in front of him was an illusion, and even if he took action, it would not affect the other party.
At this moment, a low shout came from the entrance of the courtyard.
"What are you two talking about here!"
The person who made this low shout was none other than Shangguan Jing himself, to be precise, it was the former him.
It was none other than Shangguan Jing himself, to be precise, he was who he once was.
Looking at his former self, Shangguan Jing was stunned for a moment.
At that time, his skin was still healthy and light yellow, his hair was black, and he liked to wear noble colorful robes. He was very different from his current self.
Liu Nian appeared behind Shangguan Jing without warning and asked, "Idiot, do you still remember what happened to you here?"
"This happened a hundred years ago, how could I still remember it?"
Shangguan Jing only remembered that this should have happened a hundred years ago, but he couldn't remember exactly what happened.
Seeing the visitor, the two maids immediately put down their plates filled with fish food, stood up and bowed respectfully to the man at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Okra, Xia Xi has met my uncle."
The man in the illusion walked towards the two maids angrily and slapped them twice without any explanation. Xia Xi and Qiu Kui were beaten so hard that they fell into the pool.
Fortunately, the pool was not deep, and the two people who fell into the water only flopped twice before standing up again.
Seeing this scene, Shangguan Jing's memories related to it were instantly evoked.
"I remember, this is the last time I come to Huang's place!"
Shangguan Jing looked at the two maids coldly and said angrily: "At that time, these two unruly maids were laughing at me behind my back. When I found out, I went up and slapped each of them.
Unexpectedly, the man surnamed Huang came up and scolded me regardless of the reason. I haven't been here since! "
The illusion is just as Shangguan Jing said.
Soon, Mr. Huang and his personal bodyguard Tao Hu walked out of the room.
Mr. Huang just scolded Shangguan Jing and did not ask the reason at all.
The two maids, Qiu Kui and Xia Xi, were standing behind Mr. Huang, all wet. In addition to the eye-catching red handprints, there were muddy tears on their faces.
Not long after, Shangguan Jing, who was reprimanded, snorted angrily, ignored Mr. Huang's shouting, and left the courtyard with an aggrieved face.
"Master..." the two maids said with tears in their voices: "Do you want me to explain this to my uncle, so that he will not resent you in the future?"
"No need, Jing'er has a stubborn temper and won't listen to explanations." Mr. Huang frowned, shook his head and said, "Even if you go, it will only make him even more angry, and he might get beaten again. "
After sending the two maids to the pharmacy to apply gold sore medicine, Mr. Huang ordered Tao Hu: "Pass this order, from now on, all the maids and servants of the Huang family should not take the initiative to talk to Jing'er when they see him.
If he asks, just say it was my order! "
Looking at Mr. Huang with a sad look on his face, Liu Nian sighed, while Shangguan Jing on the side looked livid with anger.
"I have already said that this Huang only cares about my talent. After I lose my genius title, my status in the Huang family cannot even be compared to that of a servant!"
Liu Nian glanced at Shangguan Jing with disgust, then snapped his fingers, and the scene in front of him began to regress rapidly.
In an instant, the illusion returned to the scene before Shangguan Jing's visit.
"Idiots!" Liu Nian pointed at the two maids squatting by the pool talking quietly and said, "Go over and listen, what are these two maids talking about?"
"Hmph, I can guess what they are talking about without listening..."
Liu Nian said with a cold face, "Go and listen!"
Forced by Liu Nian's intimidation, Shangguan Jingman reluctantly came between the two of them, and the small sounds of Qiu Kui and Xia Xi's conversation also reached his ears.
"The group of people outside are really shameless. Even if our uncle is not a Golden Core cultivator, his cultivation level is still at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. How can these old men who are in the early stage of Foundation Establishment have the nerve to talk about it!"
"That's right, my uncle has reached the Foundation Establishment Realm at the age of thirty. He is one of the top geniuses in our Zhengyang Realm, and he is also a top-notch talent. He is so good-looking. How can those old guys like him comment on him!"
…
Upon hearing that these two people were actually fighting for themselves, Shangguan Jing froze on the spot with his mouth agape.
"A sincere greeting from the servants turned into a burning sarcasm in your eyes!
Mr. Huang was worried about hurting your fragile heart, so he asked the entire Huang family's servants to remain silent in front of you, but you took it as a sneer!
No matter what others are doing, you will think that they are laughing at you. "
Liu Nian walked up behind Shangguan Jing and continued: "Do you really think that others will have nothing to do and talk about you, a stranger, all day long?
Everyone is very busy, it’s so exciting! "
"You!" Shangguan Jing turned around and glared at Liu Nian. He wanted to refute, but couldn't find any words to refute.
Liu Nian chuckled and said: "You care too much about other people's eyes, and you will always regard your imagination as facts. Those so-called humiliations are actually caused by you, an idiot!"
After hearing these words, Shangguan Jing's firm belief began to collapse, and he sat down at a loss.
"If things are really as the man in black said, then my pain, my hatred, and my desire for revenge, as well as most of my life, will be a joke."
"Isn't it just a joke?"
Shangguan Jing looked at Liu Nian in surprise: "You, you...can you hear what I am thinking?"
Liu Nian did not answer this obvious question and asked: "Idiot, do you know why Mr. Huang watched you torture yourself but didn't step forward to wake you up?"
Without waiting for Shangguan Jing to answer, Liu Nian said the answer himself: "Because he wants you to overcome this small setback and transform and grow!"
"After all..." Liu Nian said with a smile: "You are the next head of the Huang family appointed by him!"
Shangguan Jing raised his head, his eyes were determined, and he said loudly: "Impossible! I'm just a son-in-law, not the Huang family at all!
How could someone named Huang pass the title of head of the Huang family to me, a person with a foreign surname? "
"It's normal for you to think like this, because you don't know that Mr. Huang is not actually named Huang. Like you, he is also a son-in-law!
Precisely because he is also a son-in-law, he understands that if he wants to become a master, he must learn to ignore the eyes of others! "
Liu Nian looked at Shangguan Jing coldly: "It's a pity that you have failed his expectations time and time again and chose to escape in the face of this small setback!
But he has never given up on you, even if you have become a waste who thinks you are a waste! "
"Impossible! Impossible! That person named Huang can't be so kind to me, he can't be so kind to me..."
After a period of feeble yelling, Shangguan Jing's breathing began to speed up uncontrollably. A sense of fear enveloped him tightly, making him breathless.
He began to be afraid, afraid that what he saw today was the truth, afraid that everything he did was just a joke.
