Guang Ling, Apologize to Me

As the two traded insults, Qian Daoliu did not step in to mediate right away. He found it rather interesting.

The one arguing with Guang Ling was a girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen, yet she was astonishingly skilled at cursing people out.

Guang Ling was so thoroughly berated that he did not know how to retort. But he could not use his strength to bully a girl, so he could only endure the insults passively.

"Y-You... do you know who I am?"

The girl waved a hand, indicating that she did not know who Guang Ling was, then mocked him.

"Oh my, oh my. Little brat, are you getting ready to run home and tell your parents?"

Guang Ling nearly exploded with rage. He was over ninety years old, yet she had called him a little brat.

"You're the little brat! I'm already over ninety years old. How can a girl like you be so bad at speaking?"

The girl clearly did not believe him. She looked at Guang Ling's face and burst out laughing.

"You, over ninety? If that were true, then I'd be over two hundred. Ninety years old? More like nine."

Qian Daoliu had been holding back his laughter the entire time. This little girl's tongue was vicious—she had turned Guang Ling's face green with anger.

Seeing the girl still babbling away, Guang Ling wanted to leave, but she grabbed hold of him.

"What, trying to run? You have to compensate me! Otherwise, I'll report this to Spirit Hall."

Just then, Qian Daoliu arrived at Guang Ling's side with Xiao Mo in his arms.

"Fifth, what's going on here? How did you end up arguing with a little girl?"

The girl's eyes widened at the newcomer. He looked to be only in his thirties or forties, with gentle features and an air of sacred radiance about him.

"You wouldn't happen to be this little brat's father, would you?"

Guang Ling's temper flared at once. He pointed at the girl with a trembling finger and said angrily.

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't just say whatever you want...!"

Before Guang Ling could finish, Qian Daoliu cut in.

"That's right, he's my child. May I ask what he did to you?"

Guang Ling stared at Qian Daoliu in disbelief, but after thinking it over, it did not seem wrong.

Qian Daoliu was his eldest brother. An elder brother was like a father, so there was nothing wrong with him saying that.

Xiao Mo was also angry to see Guang Ling being scolded. She jumped out of Qian Daoliu's arms and looked at the woman before her.

"Although Fifth Grandpa is very mischievous and has bad habits, he would never bully a girl."

When Guang Ling heard Xiao Mo say that, he was rather touched at first. But the more he listened, the more something felt off.

The girl looked at the one adult and two children without the slightest fear. She took a step forward and faced Qian Daoliu.

"He stole the food I reserved and even threatened to teach me a lesson. Could a girl like me possibly be bullied by a child?"

Qian Daoliu and Xiao Mo both unconsciously turned to look at Guang Ling, their eyes full of confusion.

Xiao Mo even asked, "Fifth Grandpa, are you out of money? Why are you out here stealing food? If you have no money, tell Xiao Mo! I have money!"

Guang Ling could not take it anymore. What did she mean, he had no money? Could a Spirit Hall worshipper possibly lack money?

"Bullshit! I clearly reserved it first. Not only did you come eat it before me, you even turned around and accused me!"

The surrounding crowd watched with great interest, and Qian Daoliu's old face could no longer bear it.

"Fifth, stop talking. Even if you aren't ashamed, I am. Hurry up, apologize to her, and let's leave."

Guang Ling was furious. It clearly was not his fault, yet he was the one being told to apologize for everything.

Guang Ling directly rejected Qian Daoliu's suggestion and stubbornly looked at everyone.

"I didn't do anything wrong. Besides, can't we just have the owner come out?"

The girl snorted coldly and gave Guang Ling a smug smile.

"Your dad is at least reasonable. Don't think you can bully girls just because you're young."

Guang Ling angrily stepped forward to confront the girl. But at one meter sixty-five, he had to tilt his head up to look at her one-meter-seventy-eight frame.

Unable to accept it, Guang Ling immediately dragged over a stool and stood on it, glaring at the girl.

"I'll say it one more time. I reserved that meal for my little princess."

Seeing this, Xiao Mo also dragged over a stool and stood on it to confront the girl.

"Big sister, how can you be like this? Fifth Grandpa reserved it. How can you steal someone else's things?"

Seeing the two little ones standing on stools before her, the girl could not help but laugh in anger.

"What a joke. I have a meal card. What do you have?"

As she spoke, Guang Ling pulled a meal card from his pocket and held it out in front of her.

"Bullshit. Look, I have one too. Check whether the reservation number on it is mine."

The girl took the meal card and widened her eyes as she checked it. When she saw the reservation number, she could not help cursing.

"Open your eyes and look carefully! Your reservation number is 957, while mine is 956. This table is 956, understand?!"

Guang Ling took the two meal cards back in disbelief. When he saw the reservation numbers clearly, embarrassment flashed across his face.

The girl noticed Guang Ling's expression, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips.

"One old fool, one young fool, and one tiny little fool. How dare you slander people? Believe it or not, I'll have my grandpa and grandma teach you a lesson."

Guang Ling had been at fault in this matter, but upon hearing those words, Qian Daoliu recalled that red-clothed bishop and asked.

"Little girl, who are your grandfather and grandmother? Have them come over, and I'll properly apologize to them."

The girl proudly raised her head and said to the three of them.

"My name is Meng Yiran. My grandfather and grandmother are the renowned Peerless Dragon and Snake. What, scared now?"

Seeing Meng Yiran's smug expression, Guang Ling snorted disdainfully.

"I thought it was something impressive. They're just two old loaches."

Meng Yiran frowned at once, pointed a small finger at Guang Ling, and began cursing him.

"I don't see how impressive you are either. Maybe you don't even have a martial soul. Let me tell you, my grandfather is a Soul Douluo."

At that moment, a burst of hearty laughter rang out. Two figures rapidly flew toward Meng Yiran and faced Qian Daoliu's group.

Meng Shu, the Dragon Duke, directly revealed his Spirit Rings and pressured them with his aura. Guang Ling wanted to step forward, but Qian Daoliu stopped him.

Qian Daoliu shook his head at Guang Ling, but inwardly, he thought.

Such a good opportunity. Of course I should make the move—otherwise, how can I show off in front of Xiao Mo?

Qian Daoliu looked at the Dragon Duke and Snake Woman, stepped forward, and Spirit Rings began lighting up around him one after another.

Black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, red!

Especially when the final red Spirit Ring appeared, the terrifying pressure stunned everyone present.

"I am Qian Daoliu. We were in the wrong today. Guang Ling, hurry and apologize to this young lady."

As Xiao Mo looked at the imposing Qian Daoliu, little stars sparkled in her eyes.

Guang Ling, however, pursed his lips disdainfully and could not help grumbling inwardly about Qian Daoliu.

So you get to show off, and I get to apologize, is that it? You truly are my wonderful big brother!

Still, Guang Ling apologized to Meng Yiran. By then, however, they had already been frightened senseless.

They gave a perfunctory response, grabbed their granddaughter, and fled. They did not want to stay even one second longer!
