Chapter 207 Why is his father still acting like he's received an immense favor?!
"Are you two going to stay here and get a lesson from me, or go to the shipyard and tell your master everything your young master asked you to do?" Xia Mo asked the two boatmen who were terrified.
"Let's go find the head of the family!"
The two boatmen glanced at Xia Mo and then ran away.
They had heard that all the boatmen on the Cao family's boat who had clashed with Siya had suffered broken bones!
If they can't work as shipwrights at Han's shipping company, they can find other shipping companies to continue working. It's still better than... being beaten up by the horrible Fourth Sister!
"If you dare to leave, I'll fire you!" Young Master Han threatened the two boatmen with a fierce but weak tone.
The two boatmen merely glanced at Young Master Han with pity before nimbly taking off.
They would rather be fired than have their hands cut off.
"You, you, you... I am the young master of the Han family. If you dare to hurt me, my father will not let you off!" Young Master Han threatened Xia Mo in a trembling voice.
Xia Mo put away the two pieces of ironwood stick in his hand.
Young Master Han thought that Xia Mo was afraid of his status and wouldn't dare to touch him, and he was about to breathe a sigh of relief...
Xia Mo rushed in front of him in one stride, barely managing to make up for the height difference!
"Snapped--"
Young Master Han received a hard slap to the face, his head was turned to the side, his mouth was broken, and blood flowed from his mouth.
Young Master Han's head was buzzing from the blow, and he was temporarily unable to react.
Xia Mo looked at Yin Rou beside her.
Yin Rou also rushed forward, raised her arm, and slapped Han Shaozhu's right cheek, the side that hadn't been hit.
"Snapped--"
Yin Rou's slap was too light, snapping the temporarily stunned Young Master Han back to his senses.
"You...you..."
Young Master Han glared angrily at the two men who had slapped him, his eyes bulging with rage.
Even after being beaten by Xia Mo, Young Master Han still dared to throw a tantrum, because he felt that as the young master of the Han family, Yin Rou and Xia Mo wouldn't dare to really do anything to him.
Xia Mo stood up, raised her hand, and slapped Young Master Han across the face again.
When Xia Mo jumped up, Han Shaozhu knew that Xia Mo was slapping him in the face. He dodged, but... strangely enough, he was still much slower than usual in blocking!
"Snapped--"
Young Master Han received another solid slap to the face.
Yin Rou looked at Xia Mo expectantly, she wanted to slap Young Master Han twice more!
At the late summer meeting, they made another move.
This time, instead of slapping Young Master Han's face, she delivered two sharp chop blows, dislocating his arm. Then she signaled to Yin Rou that she could go up and vent her anger.
When Young Master Han realized he couldn't lift his hands, he screamed in agony like a pig being slaughtered: "Aaaaaahhhhh..."
The roar was so loud it seemed to rip the roof off the entire Han family mansion.
Xia Mo nodded slightly and struck Han Shaozhu's knees again, dislocating both of them and leaving him unable to run away or stand up.
Yin Rou slapped Young Master Han's face with ease.
"Clap clap clap..."
Yin Rou gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and slapped Han Shaozhu's face repeatedly. Han Shaozhu tried to dodge, but when he saw Xia Mo raise her hand, he dared not dodge. He didn't know if he should dodge Yin Rou's hand or fight back with his teeth, or if Xia Mo would cripple him. He was afraid, so he could only endure it.
Yin Rou hit herself until her hand hurt, but she felt relieved. Meanwhile, Young Master Han's face was swollen like a pig's head.
It was at this moment that the head of the Han family returned.
"Father, Father, Father..."
Upon seeing his father, Young Master Han cried out as if he had found a lifeline, "Father, save me! They're going to beat me to death!"
After glancing at Xia Mo, who was disguised as a maid, the head of the Han family walked up to the young master of the Han family.
"Father, Father, they're going to beat me to death! My hands and feet... my hands and feet are all crippled!" Young Master Han cried uncontrollably.
The Han family head gritted his teeth, suppressed his turbulent emotions, and kicked the young master in the abdomen again.
"Who told you to help Miss Yin with her troubles?!" the Han family head demanded sternly.
Young Master Han suffered a tremendous injustice. Not only did he not get justice from his father, but he was also kicked. He was completely stunned and was kicked to the ground, staring blankly at his father with wide eyes.
The head of the Han family wiped the sweat from his forehead, whether from anxiety or from running around, and looked sincerely at Yin Rou, saying, "Miss Yin, I am unaware of my son's behavior, but I know him well. I have spoken to him before, and he dares not disobey me. There is only one possibility: he has been instigated by someone. Would you allow me to interrogate him in front of you?"
When Yin Rou met the sincere eyes of the Han family head, her pupils trembled slightly, and she looked at Xia Mo uneasily.
Xia Mo gave Yin Rou an encouraging look, reassuring her to trust her own judgment.
Yin Rou nodded.
"You unfilial son, speak now! Who ordered you to do this?!" The Han family head looked down at his young master and demanded.
Young Master Han felt overwhelmed by grievances and roared at the Han family head, "Father, are you my father or her father?! Why should she, an outsider, inherit the Han family's shipping business?! I am your son, yet you bypassed me and gave the ship to her. Do you even consider me your son?!"
Young Master Han roared with tears streaming down his face.
"Father told you that Han Family Shipping is not our family's business, have you forgotten?!" the Han family head reminded him.
Young Master Han shook his head, disbelieving.
"Speak quickly, who sent you to cause trouble for Miss Yin?!" The Han family head glanced at Xia Mo and Yin Rou, not wanting to reveal their true master in front of them.
The head of the Han family had recognized King Jiang as his master and had followed him since he was young. He was King Jiang's servant, and he knew this very well. However, he did not want his son to continue to be King Jiang's servant, so he did not let his son know that their master was King Jiang.
"It's me!" Young Master Han deliberately contradicted himself.
Xia Mo looked at the young master Han lying on the ground and said bluntly, "Patriarch Han, he was provoked by Cao Kai, the acting young master of the Cao family."
"Is that right?!" When the Han family head heard the answer, especially since Xia Mo said it directly, he was surprised, but then he looked at his son.
Young Master Han remained silent, but his expression revealed that Xia Mo was right.
"It's precisely because I know he was just provoked and that the worst hasn't happened yet that I only crippled his limbs so that we girls could vent our anger," Xia Mo said in a simple voice, speaking coldly.
The head of the Han family felt heartbroken when he thought about his son's crippled limbs, but when he thought that his son could still have a grandson, he felt... it was alright.
He failed in educating his son, but he can try harder on his grandson!
"Master Han, you can find a doctor to set your son's bones," Xia Mo said, noticing that Master Han thought she had completely crippled Xia Mo's limbs.
Out of respect for Huangfu Qian, she couldn't completely cripple Young Master Han.
The Han family head was stunned for a moment, then realized that his son's hands and feet could still be healed. Overjoyed, he repeatedly said to Xia Mo, "Thank you, thank you, thank you for your mercy. I will take my rebellious son to set his bones right away. I will definitely have someone supervise him!"
Young Master Han's eyes widened in disbelief again. He had been bullied! How could his father act like he had received a great favor?!
