Chapter 1311: After All, I Am of the Direct Line

Chapter 1311: Chapter 1311: After All, I Am of the Direct Line

Maybe he thought that since he had already begged so much, Ye Fei, being just a young girl, would be soft-hearted.

Moreover, he couldn’t swallow his pride, yet he still wanted to play the good guy.

The things he did involved Ye Fei and Xiao Mo.

If Ye Fei, as the person involved, expressed forgiveness towards him.

Then the old man wouldn’t have any reason to punish him further, would he?

At least, there’d be no reason to punish so severely.

So Zhao Guqing kept apologizing to Ye Fei shamelessly.

For his own sake, what’s a little shame?

Zhao Guqing felt he was being quite adaptable.

The old man was worried Ye Fei would find it hard to directly refuse Zhao Guqing, making it seem like she was particularly heartless.

So, he spoke up: "You don’t need to beg Ye Fei, even if she forgives you, my orders will not change."

"What you’re doing now is forcing Ye Fei to forgive you, she has to forgive you even if she doesn’t want to." The old man said coldly, "What? Are you picking the soft target to bully? A grown man who only knows how to trouble women and children all day long, do you have any sense of shame? Truly disgraceful!"

At this point, Zhao Guqing was speechless.

Even if Ye Fei forgave him, the old man wouldn’t change his mind.

Zhao Guqing was filled with hatred inside.

But Ye Fei felt that it’s one thing for the old man to stand up for her and think about her.

But she couldn’t always be shielded by others, letting the elders deal with the wrongdoers while she hid behind, doing nothing.

In such a situation, she couldn’t respect herself.

"Even if you ask me, I won’t forgive you." Ye Fei said, "You have malice towards me and Xiao Mo, envy towards Gu Shen, not wanting to see him well. Even now your apology isn’t sincere, it’s just to protect your own interests."

"Why didn’t you apologize before? Why choose this moment to apologize, thinking I’m easy to bully, deliberately targeting me?" Ye Fei sneered, "You better stop that wishful thinking."

The old man nodded with satisfaction.

This is the kind of toughness that’s needed.

After all, the family stands by her, and if Ye Fei were still soft at this moment, it would only make the old man look down upon her.

But Ye Fei never let them down.

It was only Zhao Guqing, who lacked awareness.

He thought he had some cleverness but applied it to such wrong-headed areas.

It’d be one thing to use it wisely, but he failed even at that.

Anyone could see through it at a glance.

The old man was utterly distressed.

He waved his hand: "Hurry up and take him away."

The old man really couldn’t bear to see this disagreeable thing anymore.

The guards wouldn’t hesitate to act just because Zhao Guqing was someone important.

They only followed the old man’s orders.

Even if the one they were expelling was Zhao Gushen, they wouldn’t hesitate.

"Don’t touch me!" Zhao Guqing said unwillingly.

Being dragged out like this, how embarrassing!

"I’ll walk by myself!" Zhao Guqing barked.

But since the old man ordered the two of them to carry Zhao Guqing out, they had to carry him out.

The two wouldn’t let go.

As they reached the door, the two lifted him like a chick over the high threshold.

All the way to the corridor, Zhao Guqing, furious, said: "Let go of me, I can walk myself!"

But the two acted as if they couldn’t hear, completely unresponsive.

Zhao Guqing, furious, said: "Even if all my connections are taken away now, I am still a Zhao Family member, you should have the proper respect towards me!"

The guard, expressionless, said: "We only take orders from the old man, and we must fully execute his commands."

Zhao Guqing: "..."

He gritted his teeth and said: "Don’t think that just because I’ve lost power, you can look down on me and insult me!"

Guard: "..."

This man has issues.

They were just following orders, how were they looking down on anyone?

Zhao Guqing certainly had a lot of drama going on inside.

"This situation is only temporary." Zhao Guqing threatened, "Once the order is lifted and I return to my previous status, be careful about your choices today!"

Guard: "..."

"We are simply following orders. We have to do it properly." The guard said.

Zhao Guqing was furious, these two stone-cold guards, how could they be so unreasonable!

"I will eventually restore myself! After all, I am of the direct line!" Zhao Guqing shouted.

Guard: "..."

The guard simply stopped talking.

This guy probably couldn’t comprehend human speech.

Throughout the way, being carried, Zhao Guqing felt tortured.

The two guards also felt it was a grueling task.

The two quickened their steps, promptly delivering Zhao Guqing to the door.

Once again, like a chick, they lifted him over the high threshold.

Then, the door closed behind Zhao Guqing.

Zhao Guqing’s first reaction was to look around, checking if anyone had seen him.

Seeing no one around, Zhao Guqing felt relieved.
