Bill’s question also spoke for those people on-site, in the eagerness to know the answer, the Xia family members turned all attention to Andy Wu.
Under their gaze, Andy replied with confidence,“The richest man in Westplain means nothing to me, the wealth of all citizens here are not a patch on mine!”
No one knew about the property Andy Wu own, not even Wu’s family, it was a huge secret.
Andy did not bluff, the confident words supported by his incomparable wealth.
But it did not sound realistic to others.
A smile frozen on Guilan Huang’s face. Her strong belief in Andy, her impressive son-in-law, collapsed with his few words. Huang felt like she got kicked in the chest, Andy’s gibberish reminded her of the fool she was familiar with.
She was a little scared that all these wonderful things would end up as a dream.
On the other side, Bill’s eyes lit up immediately when Andy made the inappropriate comment, the stupid Andy he had known had come back. He again got confidence retorted without hesitation,“Ha-ha, you fool, do you have any idea how many citizens in this city? How rich these local great families are? The sum of their money is an astronomical figure. You almost got me, but you gave yourself away by your own words, what a good show today.”
His grievance resolved as he spat it out.
Bill’s families also awoke from Guilan Huang’s big talk, they believed that Andy’s few words had proved himself stupid, which encouraged them to attack him in a sarcastic way,“Damn, it was so close, I was almost fooled, hadn’t even realized that he was bluffing.”
“Well, stupid is as stupid does, stupid bluffing in stupid way.”
“It appeared that someone else made the arrangement, I don’t think this fool could have done these.”
They had no reason to retort Andy Wu and had no choice but to take the unacceptable fact. But now, they’d rather trust on an unknown but not him.
Jenny Xia was shocked by his nonsense, not to mention others. Just moments ago, she had still indulged in the fantasy that she married the most heroic hero, which made her the most fortunate woman in the world. What about now? The sensible thinking told her that it was illogical for a fool to turn to a hero, but how did he make it?
There were no reasonable explanations for some details, she got a little panic and was afraid Andy would turn back to a fool, she pulled his clothes and said,“Talk nicely.”
Andy took a sweeping glance around and shouted, “Today, let me show you…”
Boom!
Andy seemed had choked as his voice faded, a severe headache hit him with no warning, it felt like millions of ants were biting his brain, like a huge fire burning inside. He was suffering from the pain, the burn and his outrage.
He couldn’t stand it anymore, rushed out like a flying arrow, towards the fish tank in the lobby, thrown his head inside and immersed his head completely in the water.
“Ha-ha, look, Andy went nuts again.” Bill shout gleefully.
Along with the sound, the lobby suddenly became astir, people couldn’t help screaming.
“Holy shit, what hell is he doing? Having sashimi or drinking?”
“Looks like he is washing the hair!”
“Oh,my God! It’s freaking scary, is this fool getting mad again?”
“This is just terrible, last time he banged the head against the wall, and now soaking the head in the fish tank, he is indeed capable of anything crazy.”
The commotion spread throughout the Breeze Hotel.
The car from mental hospital arrived in 20 minutes, they took Andy away by force.
Along with the hope of Jenny.
She was desperate at that moment.
The sweeter the dream was, the crueler the reality became. If Jenny had no expectation on him, she wouldn’t surfer so much.
But damn, Jenny Wu, herself, made the decision to trust Andy, she had thought that her husband was no more a fool but a flawless man. She had thought of Andy as the greatest happiness in her life, she had a crush on him, yet, she would have never known that was only an illusion.
Luck never on her side, the reality was right in front of her: Her husband, Andy Wu, was a fool and braggart who always disgrace himself and capable of any crazy things.
The giant gap between reality and expectation almost crashed her down.
She looked at the crowd through hollow eyes, showed no emotion, and dead inside.
“Sorry everyone, it was shameful for Andy acted this way, but this time, I will not let this fool leave the mental institution and make any trouble again,” said Guilan Huang.
At that time, she was in a deeper desperation than Jenny.
No one could understand how she felt at the moment.
Her dream of wealth which she had thought so near realization, had vanished in a flash, she was devastated.
It’s even damn worse, that she had stepped forward to defend Andy against the Xia Family,her hard words and hurled abuse at them, and criticism on the older lady made her a great sinner!
Her fear turned into regret,but a word spoken was past recalling. She had to change her tune and make apologies to the them.
The Xia family members were astonished at the U-turn in her attitude, but none of them accepted her apologize.
Pah!!!
The old lady came up, slapped Guilan Huang in the face, and scolded,“you are such a failure, I’m old,but my eyes still work well, and I’m still a good judge of character. Andy Wu is a useless fool, anyone here could plan this, except him. I have never trusted him. You, instead, believed he had become a success overnight and showed me disrespect. It is just as well you are not rich, you would dare to beat me if you were wealthy enough one day.”
She was furious, flew off the handle this time. Cause Andy’s behaviors had made them a laughingstock in public. what’s more, Guilan Huang had the nerve to insult her in front of the whole family, which had seriously harmed her prestige and dignity. Her anger is inevitable.
Guilan’s legs were trembling, she knelt before the old lady,sobbed in a choking voice,“I’m sorry, Mrs. Xia, I was being obsessed, said something wrong, I didn’t mean it that way, please forgive me!”
She seemed humble and pathetic then, yet, no one would show sympathize for her. Not only had she offended Mrs. Xia,she had also offended the whole family today.
The families were desperate to vent their anger, they were encouraged to throw the abuse by seeing her knelt on the ground,“ She is a miser, turning her back on own flesh and blood for money, even worse, dared to against Mrs. Xia publicly, what a daredevil.”
“Well, you did think your son-in-law was made of money? Even if he had become wealthy, still, it would have been improper to betray your family.”
“She is a traitor, she is not qualified to stay at our family.”
Guilan instantly had been condemned as a flagrant sinner, had to endure all their harsh words.
Seeing her mother knelt down to the ground and had been scolded, Jenny got flurried and pulled herself out from the shock, rushed to Mrs. Xia and begged for mercy,“Grandma, that’s the how my mum is, I’m sure she meant no harm, please forgive her.”
The old lady stared at Jenny, berated, “You have no standing to ask for any mercy, you were not able to discipline a fool. look what he has done, laid us all open to ridicule!”
For the Xias family, today was supposed to be the day of glory and a good chance to show up their strength in Westplain City, well, the stupid Andy had messed it up, got on the old lady’s nerves.
“I’m sorry,” Jenny have suffered more than others, but nobody cares, she held back her tears and apologized to the old lady.
Mrs. Xia couldn’t cool herself down, she would like to teach them a lesson, while, as all exquisite dishes had been served on the tables, and the waiters were standing aside, she kept her temper to maintain some dignity, so, she frowned and said, “Get up, let’s deal with this at home.”
Then, she called out to the crowd, “Take your seats!”
Although until now there was still a mystery, nobody knew who had arranged this grand event, the event itself stood for the distinguished identity of the host, Mrs. Xia would certainly not dishonor such a character. the Xia family should well enjoy the dishes.
When the families heard these words, they split up to get proper seats.
Jenny and Guilan pulled a long face, found seats in the corner.
Hardly had they seat down when the old lady gave the words, “ step aside!” Obviously, Mrs. Xia declined to share the honor with them.
Knowing that she was still mad, Jenny and Guilan got no guts to rebut as they stepped back.
This mother and daughter stood in the corner, just like pupils got a time-out, which made the whole family couldn't help gloating and laughing.
Jenny and Guilan’s dignity were permanently smeared.
“Well, just ignore these buzzkills, let’s enjoy the food!” the old lady then said.
At the meanwhile, the usher called in a respectful voice at the door:“ Mr. Shengli Feng, Founder of Yuting Group,Arrival!”
“Mr. Wenke Su, President of Huafeng Technology, Arrival!”
“Mr. Tianlong Zhao, Board Chairman of Ouhuang Media, Arrival!”
“Mr. Runzhi Peng, Founder of Longevity Finance, Arrival!”
“Mr. Xuemin Jiang, Board Chairman of Kangtai Medical, Arrival!”
“Mr. Jianye Yang, Vice President of Changsheng Group, Arrival!”
“Ms. Susu Qin, Main Founder of Breeze Hotel, Arrival!”
