Chapter 260: with translation of chapter title

Liu Haizhong, upon hearing Yan Bu Gui's words, slapped his thigh, looked at Yi Zhonghai, and said:

"Yeah, Lao Yi, Lao Yan didn't say I still couldn't remember."

"What on earth is going on?"

"I, I remember you said before that you wouldn't have anything to do with Qin Huairu's family."

"You also said Bang Geng and Xiao Dang were white-eyed wolves."

"How come you seem to be defending Bang Geng now?"

Yan Bu Gui said with a smug look: "Look, Lao Yi, it's not just me who thinks this; even Lao Liu, who's so stupid......"

Hearing this, Liu Haizhong's face darkened involuntarily, and he hurriedly spoke up to interrupt:

"Hey hey hey, Lao Yan, how can you talk like that?"

"This time I'm really on your side."

"We, we, uh, we're on the same side, right?"

"Besides, I used to be a leader."

"If I could be a leader, would I be an idiot?"

Yan Bu Gui smiled embarrassedly and said:

"Yes yes yes, my wording was wrong."

"It should be that even someone as simple-minded as Lao Liu could figure it out."

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Liu Haizhong looked at him and asked: "No, Lao Yi, how can you still laugh?"

"You, you need to come clean—why are you suddenly defending Bang Geng?"

"No way, uh, Bang Geng couldn't be your son, could he?"

As soon as those words were spoken.

Yan Bu Gui was instantly dumbfounded.

Liu Haizhong really dares to say anything.

Saying that, it's practically a rhythm to destroy Yi Zhonghai's reputation.

Yi Zhonghai definitely won't let it go.

As expected.

Yi Zhonghai's old face turned red, he lunged over, grabbed Liu Haizhong's collar, and angrily said:

"Liu Haizhong, how dare you speak like that?"

"Don't believe me? I'll tell Shengli to clean you up."

Liu Haizhong, upon hearing that, involuntarily shuddered, and hurriedly replied with a smile:

"No, no, Lao Yi, you, why are you getting so worked up?"

"I, I was just joking."

Yi Zhonghai: "Who jokes like that?"

"Apologize, take back what you just said, or I won't be polite."

Liu Haizhong was also frightened.

He didn't expect that just a joking remark would make this old good guy Yi Zhonghai actually lay hands on him.

If it were just Yi Zhonghai, he wouldn't be afraid either.

At worst, he'd break with Yi Zhonghai and have nothing more to do with him.

Fight?

He's not bragging; even two Yi Zhonghais wouldn't be his match.

What's more, he still has three sons.

Even if they aren't very filial, they're still his three sons.

Just by standing there, Yi Zhonghai would be scared to death.

But.

Now it's different.

With Lin Shengli this big demon around, he doesn't dare to even breathe.

So he also had no choice but to apologize with a smile:

"Lao Yi, sorry, sorry, I, I really was just joking."

"I take back what I just said."

"Don't be angry, let me go, okay?"

After a moment of stunned silence, Yan Bu Gui also hurriedly urged:

"Right right right, Lao Liu speaks without thinking, he's simple-minded, simple-minded, can't see such a profound issue."

Liu Haizhong was unhappy: "Lao Yan, who are you calling simple-minded?"

Yan Bu Gui gave an embarrassed laugh and said: "Don't dwell on that; we're now together urging Lao Yi not to tell Shengli, or else you'll be in trouble."

Liu Haizhong quickly said: "Yeah, Lao Yi, have pity on me, don't tell Shengli, okay?"

"I can't afford to provoke him."

Yi Zhonghai gave a cold snort and released Liu Haizhong.

Then.

He looked at Yan Bu Gui and asked:

"Lao Yan, do you also think Bang Geng is my son?"

Yan Bu Gui froze for a moment: "Heavens, my conscience! I really didn't say that."

Liu Haizhong muttered: "I've thought about it."

Yan Bu Gui, upon hearing, turned pale and hurriedly said:

"Old Liu, don't talk nonsense."

"When did I ever think that?"

"If you dare to spout nonsense again, I'll tell Shengli."

Liu Haizhong: "Come on, come on, can't I just shut up?"

Yi Zhonghai also realized he was too impulsive.

He let out a long sigh and said: "Old Liu, sorry, I shouldn't have laid hands on you."

"I just feel that some jokes we shouldn't make."

"You said Bang Geng is my son......"

At that moment, suddenly came San Da Ma's shout:

"Old Yi, is Bang Geng your son?"

Yi Zhonghai and the others didn't see San Da Ma.

Her shout startled them as well.

Then.

Yi Zhonghai turned and glared at the approaching San Da Ma, speaking irritably:

"San Da Ma, why are you shouting so loud?"

"Who said Bang Geng is my son?"

San Da Ma: "You just said it, didn't you?"

Yan Bu Gui: "You're hearing wind as rain."

"Old Yi was just speaking figuratively."

"If you didn't hear the earlier part, say less."

Liu Haizhong chimed in: "Exactly, otherwise Old Yi would grab your collar."

Yi Zhonghai: "......"

Liu Haizhong continued: "Besides, if he tells Shengli, you're in trouble."

San Da Ma laughed: "Then, I must have misheard; I take back what I just said."

Yi Zhonghai: "San Da Ma, to avoid misunderstanding, I have to say it again."

"Just now, it was because I was defending Bang Geng a bit."

"Old Liu was joking that Bang Geng wouldn't be your son, right?"

San Da Ma waved her hand and said: "I don't have such a good son."

"Although my sons aren't great, they're still a bit better than Bang Geng."

Yan Bu Gui: "Exactly, my few sons are a bit better than Bang Geng."

Yi Zhonghai said irritably: "Can you let me finish speaking first?"

"Does that show you're capable?"

Liu Haizhong: "Old Yan, now Old Yi has Shengli as his nephew, he's gotten bold; you'd better listen to him."

"Otherwise you won't have it easy."

Yan Bu Gui: "Yes, yes, Old Yi, go on."

Yi Zhonghai: "What else is there to say?"

"However, I warn you: never joke again that Bang Geng is my son."

"I don't mind; I'm old enough that I don't care much about reputation."

"But Qin Huairu, if you joke like this and someone misunderstands..."

"... then Huairu's reputation will be ruined."

San Da Ma: "No, Old Yi, why are you suddenly defending Qin Huairu?"

"I recall you told us before that the Qin Huairu family must not be approached."

"It's best to stay as far away as possible."

"And now you're actually worried about Qin Huairu's reputation being ruined."

"This is too abnormal, too abnormal."

"As the saying goes, when things go awry, there must be something fishy."

"Could Old Liu's joke just now actually be true?"

Yi Zhonghai: "......"

He had already turned livid with anger.

Yan Bu Gui, meanwhile, held his forehead with one hand and sighed.

He had been giving San Da Ma looks earlier, but she seemed not to understand, and continued talking to herself.

Liu Haizhong, meanwhile, couldn't help laughing.
