"Is that how you talk to me?"
Xu Mu said bluntly:
"Old Kale, do you even know how to talk?"
"If you don't, I'll teach you!"
With that, he shot Kale a challenging look.
Kale's face darkened instantly at Xu Mu's words.
That little brat.
He was exactly like his damned father.
Anything but decent!
I'm your father-in-law, and this is how you talk to me? Keep it up and I won't let Cynthia marry you!
The moment that thought crossed his mind, Kale wanted to slap himself.
Won't let Cynthia marry him? She'd probably run away with him.
Forget it. I won't stoop to that brat's level.
After consoling himself, Kale's expression eased.
There was nothing he could do. He couldn't beat Xu Mu in a fight or an argument.
I'll just put up with him.
That'll be better than making an even bigger scene.
I'd better get out of here. If I stay any longer, I might actually get beaten up.
Clearing his mind, Kale pretended he hadn't heard Xu Mu and spoke again:
"I've said everything I need to say. Think it over!"
Then he walked out without looking back.
Watching Kale leave, Xu Mu suddenly grinned.
Oh, Kale.
He's just asking for it. If you don't give him a scolding, he won't feel right.
Look, I snapped at him twice, and now he feels much better.
He must be in a wonderful mood. Just look at him—he's so happy he can barely walk straight.
Kale, who only wanted to get out of there, had no idea what Xu Mu was thinking.
If he knew, he would have jumped with rage.
What do you mean, I was asking for a scolding? Am I that much of a glutton for punishment?
*All I want is to get away
