40 TIT FOR TAT PART 13 (1/2)
”You are telling me to apologize to her?!” Ge Guiren was trembling in anger. 'I'm the mightiest Ge Guiren, the elder of the Ge Family. This little brat wants me to apologize to that shitty girl!? How dare he?' He never bowed down to anyone. He had no reason to bow down this time either.
Ge Chen's eyes dangerously narrowed. He created pressure around him. Everyone could feel that the temperature of the room suddenly dropped. He coldly said, ”I would have told Lin to apologize if she was making a mistake. However, whatever she said is all true. You didn't do anything for my sake since the day I was born. Why do you think I will help you now to take care of your company? That company has nothing to do with me.”
Ge Guiren's anger rose. ”This is the company of your father? How can you say that?”
Ge Chen's expression didn't change. ”But he gave that company to his illegitimate child. I gain nothing from that company.”
Ge Guiren scolded his grandson, ”How can you talk about your father like that? Did that wi*ch brainwash you?” His gaze fell on Xue Lin who was held by her husband.
Xue Lin became even more furious. ”What did you say?”
Ge Chen hardened his expression. ”If he didn't cheat on my mother, made her sick, forced her to leave and kicked me out, I would have thought of him as my father. What did he do for me to get my support?”
Ge Guiren used his last resort. ”But he is your family. His blood runs through your body.”
Ge Chen's arms loosened a bit and Xue Lin took the chance. She could get a little closer and grabbed Ge Guiren by his collar. She forcefully pulled him close to her. Ge Guiren wasn't ready for it. He stumbled and got closer.
Xue Lin gritted her teeth and said, ”Alright, you old hag, I heard enough of your nonsense. I know your brain is filled with filthy garbage. Let me clear that dirty brain of yours. Family doesn't end in blood, but it doesn't start there either. Family cares about you, not what you can do for them. A family is there through the good, bad, all of it. They got your back even when it hurts. That's family.”
She warned Ge Guiren as she glared, ”Now if you think you still have the right to speak to my husband like that, then there's nothing I can do. But let me tell you this once and for all. If you dare to mess up with us again, I'll never let you die peacefully. You'll regret that you ever let me see your face.”
She learned the quotation about the family from a television show Supernatural when she was in high school. At that time, her family isolated her. She was in despair. When she heard that definition of a family, her heart was moved.
