Chapter 4: Strange Attitude

  Attitude is weird

  Duan Ya's delicate face twisted, she suddenly turned her head back, her blue eyes glaring at Duan Chu. She never thought that the introverted and self-abased Duan Chu could utter such vicious words, not only exposing her illegitimate status, but also implying that she had snatched Meng Jiaxi away, and even dragging her mother Bei Jinglan and the entire Bei family into it.

  Pres was shocked, his eyes almost popping out. This Seventh Young Master had indeed been stimulated too greatly and had simply exploded in a fit of pique? Just a moment ago, he was still calm and composed.

  Duan Chu took in the changes in both of their expressions, and sneered at Duan Ya Qing with a raised lip. He wasn't someone who wouldn't fight back or retort when scolded, let alone when this person came over to bully him and even dragged his family into it. Duan Chu didn't care if Duan Ya Qing was trying to humiliate the original owner and his birth mother; after all, he was the one being scolded now.

  "You actually dare to criticize even your own mother!" Duan Ya Qing finally burst out in anger.

  Bai Jinglan was the most respected person on the entire planet of Yiwu, and no one dared to offend this senior pharmacist, let alone this junior pharmacist. Even though many people had previously shown disdain and contempt, after Bai Jinglan successfully produced the high-grade Mind Concentration Pill three years ago, they only dared to secretly slander her, and no one dared to say anything in front of them, and even had to be careful to curry favor with her.

  Duanchu clearly saw the gloom and viciousness in Duanyaqing's eyes, and fearlessly smiled at her: "Isn't that a fact? Or do you want me to remind you of it at your engagement party?"

  Duan Chu actually didn't understand either. The Duan family should have a high status in the Hawa star system, but why couldn't they even keep the news of their illegitimate daughter and Bai Jinglan's rise to power hidden? It was spread far and wide, so much so that Duan Chu's grandfather, Duan Wenyu, had no choice but to bring the scandal-ridden Duan Zhiyi family with him, leaving the capital planet and coming to Ibiza, where they stayed for over a decade.

  Duan Chu didn't think that the people of the Hua Xia galaxy were too upright, as far as he knew, Meng Jia Xing's father seemed to have a mistress outside, there must be some reason why the Duan and Bei families couldn't hide or suppress this news, even after more than ten years, his three-year-old motherless victim son also knew about it.

  If Duàn Chǔ hadn't awakened at the age of eighteen, he would have lost all hope of becoming a contractor and solidified his reputation as a waste in the Duàn family, causing their status to plummet. This would have allowed Duàn Yǎqīng to be fearless, and perhaps she would continue to maintain her image as a considerate sister in front of the original master.

  Perhaps this can be taken advantage of? Duan Chuhao looked at Duan Yaqing with a leisurely expression, waiting for her next reaction.

  Duanyaqing was so angry that her whole body was trembling, she was good at hiding her thoughts and was used to doing things in a roundabout way, never thinking that the useless son who had stolen her father's many years and made her an illegitimate daughter would be so direct in slapping her in the face, seemingly without any regard.

  No, if Duan Chu really wanted to go all out, her engagement banquet would become a laughing stock. Others wouldn't care about losing face for Duan Chu, they would only remember that it was her engagement.

  Duan Ya Qing suddenly turned her head and rushed out of the room at an unprecedented speed. She wanted to discuss with her mother, Bei Jing Lan, and must have Duan Chu imprisoned until death!

  "Hmph!" Duan Chu let out a cold hum, restoring his previous gloominess. He lowered his eyelids, picked up the card holder and fiddled with it for a moment before looking up at Pres and asking in a somber tone: "Is this really my father? Let me relearn what propriety, integrity, and shame are?"

  Pu Rui immediately came to his senses, no wonder Seventh Young Master suddenly became so aggressive. It seems that he was stimulated by Eldest Miss's words. He couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic, Third Master was indeed a bit too much, how could this card tray be seen as having an insulting nature? Just like Seventh Young Master said, no matter how much he looked down on him, he was still the young master raised by the Duan family, asking him to relearn propriety and shame, wasn't that just scolding himself? Or did Third Master think Eldest Miss was right, could this kind of warning make Seventh Young Master completely give up on Meng Jue?

  Before he could think of an excuse, Duan Chu spoke up first.

  "I know, you go out first!" Duan Chu's voice became very calm and strange, "Come in at noon for lunch, don't disturb me!"

  Pures was shocked and carefully looked at the young man on the bed, seeing that his eyes had become dull, probably really heartbroken. Especially since he lost hope for the future, and was robbed of his loved one, already fallen into the mud, now even his own father regarded him as a shame, not collapsing was already strong enough.

  "Yes," Pres said in a low voice, not daring to provoke him. He quietly and lightly left the room, closing the door behind him.

  As soon as he stepped out, his wrist beeped twice, and a tall and majestic figure suddenly appeared in the corridor, startling him into standing at attention.

  "Ah, Lord Bevis!" Pres bowed respectfully. Bevis was the steward of the Ivisasen family and private assistant to General Duan Wenyu, the second master of the house. Even Third Master Duan Zhiqi would show him deference, not daring to offend his father's brilliant and capable right-hand man.

  "Come to the conference hall on the third floor, right-hand side. General wants to see you!" Blonde-haired and blue-eyed Bevis nodded at him without any extra movement, and his figure disappeared.

  Pu Rui let out a sigh of relief, but immediately felt a tightening in his chest. The master of the house had summoned him, a small Luo Luo? Thinking of Miss Duan Ya Qing's ugly face as she rushed out earlier, he couldn't help but tremble with fear. Being drawn into the struggle within the wealthy family was a dead end for someone like him, who was insignificant everywhere.

  Pres walked towards the third floor with a gloomy face, rubbed his face at the door, and his complexion returned to normal before knocking on the door in rhythm.

  The door slid open with a hiss, and Press entered awkwardly. At a glance, he saw Duan Wen Yu, the master of the Duan family, his wife Qi Zhen, Third Master Duan Zhi Xiu, Third Madam Bei Jing Lan, and Duan Ya Qing with red-rimmed eyes, as well as standing tall, Lord Bevis.

  Pres stood at attention, standing humbly by.

  "Grandfather, you can ask him if Seventh Brother said those words?" Duan Ya Qing's face was filled with sadness and distress: "If he really attended the engagement banquet and said those things, it wouldn't just be our Duan family losing face, but also the Meng family..." She choked back a sob and said: "I'm afraid this marriage will stir up trouble."

  Duan Zixiu's face turned gloomy, clearly not expecting that the timid and weak eldest son would do such a thing. Even though Bei Jinglan becoming a high-ranking pharmacist had suppressed those rumors, once old matters were brought up again, the Duan family would become the laughing stock of the planet Ivisas. When could they return to the capital planet?

  "Dad, or else..." He hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something, but was glared at by Duan Wenyu and pulled back by Qiong.

  "Shut up!" Duan Wenyu coldly commanded, nodding at Beavis.

  Bai Wei bowed respectfully, then looked up at Pres and said in a low voice: "The Seventh Young Master's room had all electronic interference cancelled early on. Take out the recorder you're carrying with you."

  Pres was overjoyed and hastily took out the recorder he had been wearing on his chest, presenting it to Lord Bevis. This way, he could only be considered a material witness, and even if Missy's complaint didn't work out and she got angry, it wouldn't fall on him.

  Bivens nodded, waved off Press, ignored the discolored face of Duan Ya-qing, and calmly entered the playback command on the recorder. A soft white light flashed by, and a scene that had occurred in Duan Chu's room was fully displayed before everyone. In the end, the screen froze on Duan Chu's pale face with a stunned gaze.

  Duan Ya Qing's hand at her side almost clenched into a fist, and her eyes anxiously looked towards her mother.

  To ensure the safety of the castle, in addition to fixed cameras and recorders, each secondary guard also carries a recorder with them at all times, which is stored in the system and cleared every day. To protect the master's privacy, bedrooms and other important rooms and corners are equipped with high-level electronic interference devices.

  Duan Yaqing never thought that her grandfather and father would actually cancel the electronic defense of Duan Chu's room, exposing her ugly appearance in front of everyone.

  Bei Jinglan was very calm, and Duan Yaqing just responded to Duan Chu's vicious words. Even if the initial "education" was a provocation, it could be interpreted from another angle. However, Duan Chu actually scolded her maternal family as well, she would absolutely not let him go.

  "Ya Qing is also for me..." She turned around to whisper an explanation to her husband, but saw guilt on Duan Zhi Xiu's face and suddenly changed color.

  Duan Zixiu was still in a daze and didn't notice the change in his wife. Even if he didn't like Duan Chu, this son of his, or was disappointed with him, he wouldn't blame it on his upbringing. It was just that Duan Yaqing had told him to pay more attention to conditioning reflexes, so he wouldn't have to worry about the engagement party going wrong, that's why he ordered Pres to prepare a card tray.

  "Zhi Xiu, what's going on here?" Duan Wenyu glared at him.

  Duan Zixiu hastily regained his composure and dryly replied: "Dad, I didn't think..."

  He really didn't expect that the gift of teaching materials would drive this self-abased son to such a state. Looking at Duan Chu's expression, he was heartbroken to the extreme. Thinking that his eldest son had lost the possibility of being a successor and had no future, he had to watch with his own eyes as the person he loved got engaged, and was humiliated by his own father like this. For a moment, guilt and worry floated up in his mind.

  Baiwei saw Duan Wenyu getting angry and was about to stand up, so he quickly spoke out to calm him down: "General, Third Master is just worried that Seventh Young Master will not behave well at the engagement banquet and will bring bad rumors, definitely not trying to scold Seventh Young Master."

  Bei Jinglan heard this and the contradiction was about to shift to her daughter, so she quickly explained in a soft voice: "Dad and mom, you know that Ya Qing has always been very concerned about Xiao Chu. Now that she's engaged to Meng Jia Xuan, she feels too guilty towards him, so she spoke out of kindness but ended up causing trouble." She paused for a moment, looking at Duan Wen Yu with sincerity: "Dad, now that Xiao Chu is so angry, why don't we let her calm down and not attend the engagement banquet?"

  Qiong, who had been silent all along, let out a cold laugh. She was a high-spirited contractor, and just because she could make her husband a postnatal seventh-level warrior, Bai Jinglan, this senior pharmacist, wasn't even worth looking at in front of her.

  "Do you think we want Xiao Qi to attend the engagement banquet just to show off the deep sisterly love? She said word by word: "I'll tell you, not only does Xiao Qi have to attend the engagement banquet, but he also has to walk out with a clear head and full energy. Even if he returns to the capital star, he must live a life of abundance and admiration from everyone!"
