Chapter 150 Is He Ye Tianlin?
The arrival of Lin Jingtao made the atmosphere freeze instantly.
Su Weimin, in particular, shrank his neck, terrified to the core.
Born and raised in Jiangnan, who in every household did not know the formidable reputation of Lin Jingtao?!
In terms of status, power, and influence, he was undeniably the undisputed number one in Jiangnan!
Yet a big figure of this caliber had actually rushed here in person, claiming that someone had injured his son and demanding a public apology?
Lin Jingtao’s son was a notoriously pampered young scoundrel throughout Jiangnan whom no one dared to provoke. Whenever people heard the name Lin Kaiyang, they would run as far away as possible, terrified of becoming his next unlucky victim.
Su Weimin shifted his gaze, looking toward the back, and sure enough, he saw Lin Kaiyang. Not only was his face bruised and swollen, but his head was also wrapped in gauze, making him look extremely wretched.
"Did you... did you find the wrong person?" Su Weimin asked, trembling.
Lin Kaiyang stepped forward, pointed a finger at Ye Tianlin from a distance, and cursed through clenched teeth, "It’s this blind bastard! He has beaten me three times now! When has Lin Kaiyang ever suffered such grievances?"
Hearing this, Gao Yulan panicked completely and said with a shaking voice, "Young Master Lin, there must be some misunderstanding here. My son-in-law would never act recklessly."
Lin Kaiyang spat as he cursed, "There is no misunderstanding! The absolute fact is that all these injuries on my body were dealt by this fellow, and he didn't even bother to find out who I am!"
Su Weimin drew a sharp breath, breaking out in a cold sweat of sheer terror. He couldn't help but scold angrily, "You bastard! I think your brain has turned to mush! The current situation doesn't allow for any mistakes on your part, yet you still managed to provoke such a heavyweight figure! Why aren't you apologizing and admitting your wrongs right now?!"
Ye Tianlin raised an eyebrow, re-examined Lin Kaiyang, and said, "So after all this fuss, you are Lin Kaiyang?"
"You must be blind as a bat to only just recognize who I am! What a pity it's too late now—my dad has come in person, and things definitely won't end easily this time. I suppose you're well aware of who my dad is!" Lin Kaiyang said with an arrogant and triumphant look.
Standing nearby, Feng Sihai couldn't stand Lin Kaiyang's character and behavior, but with such backing, the fellow before him was most likely in for a world of hurt today.
The reason was simple: Lin Jingtao was notoriously protective of his family. Coupled with the fact that Lin Kaiyang was his only son, he had been spoiled rotten over the years, given whatever he wanted without exception.
As the saying goes, to raise a child without teaching him is the father's fault. Lin Jingtao was undeniably the driving force behind Lin Kaiyang's outrageous lawlessness, and even Elder Lin's repeated warnings had consistently fallen on deaf ears!
After all, Feng Sihai was an outsider; how could he possibly have the right to intervene? Even when he found things hard to watch, there was nothing he could do.
Sure enough, Lin Jingtao immediately adopted a stern and severe expression, declaring, "No matter the reason, hitting someone is wrong. Apologize to my son and admit your mistake right now!"
"Lin Jingtao, given your status and standing, aren't you ashamed to have raised such a spoiled scoundrel? Even if you don't care about your own face, you should at least consider Elder Lin!" Ye Tianlin said.
Lin Kaiyang's eyes bulged. He took another step forward and cursed aggressively, "So you do know who my grandfather is! But is the name of my grandfather something a nobody like you can casually discuss? If you know what's good for you, apologize immediately!"
"Elder Lin has commanded a glorious reputation his entire life—how did he end up with a family disgrace like you?!" Ye Tianlin found it truly unbearable to watch, and finally understood why Elder Lin had previously entrusted him with the task of disciplining the young man.
He and Elder Lin enjoyed an excellent relationship, shared a confidential partnership, and always held the old man in the utmost respect. How could he possibly tolerate such a spectacle?
Without wasting further words, Ye Tianlin delivered a slap right across the face, sending Lin Kaiyang crashing to the ground once again.
Slap!
The sound of the heavy strike echoed through the air, and the entire room fell into a stunned silence.
Lin Jingtao stood frozen in place, never expecting that anyone would dare resort to violence right in front of him.
Feng Sihai held his breath, thinking to himself that this fellow possessed unbelievable guts. Such courage was truly admirable, and even gave him a fleeting sense of secret satisfaction, though regrettably, it was far too reckless.
Su Weimin's heart skipped a beat; he was scared out of his wits and nearly pissed his pants!
"Ye Tianlin, you wretched bastard, what on earth are you doing?! How could you dare strike Young Master Lin? I think you've completely lost your mind!"
Just as Lin Jingtao was about to erupt in fury, upon hearing the name Ye Tianlin, his entire body abruptly stiffened. With a look of utter astonishment, he asked, "Did you just say... his name is Ye Tianlin?"
