Chapter 259: Be wise and suck it up

"Not cool, Dr. Yang Mingshen. Neither the fact that my son could have died nor that it was your employee who brought him to this state."

The mother, Hou Huan, faced Mingshen akin to a tigress waiting to claw out his face. The air notched down by a few degrees. Though her face held slight wrinkles and grey locks of hair fluttered around her temple, she was in no way to be taken lightly. Her poised demeanor carried the weight of her political legacy and career. Her eyes contained an iron will and calculated grace which seemed to come from fighting a hardened battle of her own.

Mingshen smiled. "According to my employee’s defense, your son hit the bed he was sleeping on. That’s a big no-no for him."

She smiled back which was anything but cordial. "There are a lot of big no-nos’ for me too, Dr. Yang. One of which is hurting my family member. But it seems like you got your arrogance from your father in legacy."

He raised his brow.

"Your father," her eyes burned with a quiet but fierce resentment, "refused to treat my son years ago. He shed off his responsibility as a doctor."

"It was your youngest son’s fault."

"And now you are shedding off your responsibility."

"Because this time, it’s your eldest son’s fault."

She simply stared at him.

Mingshen chuckled, glancing at the middle son, Hou Anming. "Don’t get left behind in the race. You ought to follow your brother’s footsteps. Both of them. They are missing you."

Hou Anming said nothing but his wife, Hou Delan had a lot to say. "I haven’t seen a shameless person like you."

Mingshen smiled, accepting the challenge. "Not as shameless as your entire family very openly ignoring your future daughter-in-law as she stands at some dusty corner."

Meng Rin, who was farther away from Mingshen, jolted slightly

Hou Delan blinked.

"Don’t forget you are the second daughter-in-law. She is going to be the eldest one," Mingshen pointed at Meng Rin, "Hmmmmmm, I don’t really see the hierarchy fitting in well here. Respect much?"

Her brow twitched. "She is traumatized by Bro Tengqi’s accident."

"Your brother-in-law in that state actually makes people happy, not traumatized."

Hou Huan glanced at Meng Rin once, which made her immediately lower her head and slightly shiver.

She looked back at Mingshen. "Are you implying that we don’t take good care of her?"

"Hmm~ Well compared to the middle daughter-in-law who at least has a voice here, that other one doesn’t seem to be your particular favorite."

"You-"

Hou Anming intervened. "Mom. Let’s stop. Bro needs us. We will deal with this later."

Hou Guangxi, his father, narrowed his eyes. "You just want us to let go of Yang Mingshen’s disrespect?"

Mingshen shyly waved his hand in dismissal. "Ah stop it you two with the flirty talk. I treat you all like everybody else. You are nobody special to deserve my respect."

Hou Delan was beyond speechless. She had heard of his reputation but to witness it before her...

Hou Huan stared at her son. "I am not letting this go. I have never...let things go," her eyes squinted.

He didn’t respond to that.

"Letting things not go," Mingshen pouted, "is a toxic trait, you know?"

She cut to the chase. "How are you going to compensate for this, Dr. Yang?"

"That’s what you were bothering my Mom with? She was very pissed off. The only thing that could placate her was sex with Dad."

Hou Delan wanted to puke blood.

Mingshen suddenly gasped. "Oh my, I am sorry. I must have hit a nerve there, right? My mom still has such a lovely and functioning sex life whereas you and your husband seem to be in a dry spell."

Hou Guangxi smiled tremblingly. "You should learn to mind that tongue of yours, son."

"I am not your son. I am not interested in being one either. You already got three. Some people are just not satisfied, are they?"

He took in a deep breath all filled with anger and frustration that had no outlet.

Hou Huan said, "Your mother is quite a character. I said that your banged up head would be very nice in exchange and she didn’t even flinch."

"You are talking to the wrong person then. Mom feels like burying me herself numerous times. I am not quite the docile son she imagined and wanted," he shrugged.

"Your employee’s banged up head would be quite nice too."

Meng Rin flinched at that and her breath stopped for a moment. She wasn’t sure if she was serious or if this just was a threat.

Mingshen smiled. "You see Mrs. Hou, these are the kinds of statements that get you into trouble. Circulating the recording in your own fresh voice should be very entertaining~"

She smiled. "We are one of the Politburo families for a reason dear. So keep the cute threats to yourself. You are still too wet in your diaper to understand my power and influence."

He yawned. "Is that so?"

"Which includes reopening your medical license case."

He looked at her, tilting his head.

"Who is Yang Mingshen without his medical license? Nobody. I bet that would be more entertaining than the conversation around my dry sex life or the imaginary recording."

"That’s very cute of you to think that you can take medicine out of my life, considering half of your arms and legs are dripping with underworld’s filth and connections."

She slightly squinted her eyes.

"That underworld which rests upon four pillars - Zhao, Yang, Cheng and Lu families. Who is Hou Huan without the underworld’s backing? Utter nobody. Even an ant would live a better life than yours."

An eerie silence fell.

"So you try to take medicine out of my life, I rip the politics out of yours. If I get crippled, so will you. Do not, I repeat, do not threaten the Yang family again. I have come on my mother’s behalf. You seriously don’t want to face her. So be wise and suck it up."

She said nothing.

"As to why your dearest son’s head got banged up, you should get a little confession out of him. Bai Yingtai uses violence only when the other uses violence first. Otherwise he only cares about sleeping. So your son has some anger issues to resolve, not my employee. Which is also why he will be out of jail and you won’t be able to do anything about it. So like I said before? Be wise and suck it up."
