"Enough!"
Tang Yuan struck the ground with his cane, roaring loudly, then turned his gaze to Lu Yang, "Lu Yang, everyone here today is discussing my Tang family's most important matters. What right do you have to butt in? Get out!"
"Get out! Our Tang family's future cannot be ruined by you, a useless live-in son-in-law!"
"Stupid idiot, you don't understand a thing about ball games, yet you have the nerve to show off in front of Young Master Liu!"
"..."
Liu Changxin sneered, raised his hand to stop everyone, then looked at Lu Yang and said, "Lu Yang, I'll give you a chance today. As long as you tell me who the new chairman of Haitong Group is, I'll apologize to you!"
"If you can't say it, then crawl out from between my legs today. Do you dare? Hahaha..."
After speaking, Liu Changxin's eyes were filled with an inexplicable confidence. Even with his methods, he hadn't figured out who the new chairman of Haitong Group was. How could a useless live-in son-in-law possibly know? Wasn't this a joke?
The rest of the Tang family members looked at Lu Yang with disdain and amusement, waiting for him to make a fool of himself and crawl between Liu Changxin's legs!
"Lu Yang, have you no shame? If you have no shame, don't disgrace our family! Hurry up and get out. Damn it, how could Shi Min find such a stupid idiot like you? You have no ability to achieve anything, but you've learned how to brag!"
Li Xiumei couldn't help but curse at Lu Yang again.
If it were in the past, Lu Yang would have lowered his head and said nothing. But times had changed. The current Lu Yang was no longer the same person. A slight smile curved his lips, and his eyes were filled with ice.
He scanned the surroundings, taking in the ugly faces of the Tang family. Lu Yang decided he would no longer be so cowardly.
He gently stroked Tang Shi Min's head, took a deep breath, and then said to everyone, "Since you want to know, I'll tell you!"
The entire Tang family villa instantly fell silent, so quiet that the dropping of a needle could be heard. Everyone stared at Lu Yang, their expressions a mixture of shock, indifference, and disdain...
"Alright, go ahead and tell us. Who is the new chairman of Haitong Group?"
Liu Changxin looked at Lu Yang and said with a cold laugh.
"It's me!"
Lu Yang pointed at himself, then continued, "I am the new chairman of Haitong Group!"
When all the Tang family members heard Lu Yang's words, they were stunned for a moment, and then burst into uproarious laughter.
"You're really opening my eyes, you son of a bitch! I thought you were just showing off, but I didn't expect you to have a problem with your brain!"
"If you're the chairman of Haitong Group, then I'm the grandfather of the chairman of Haitong Group!"
Liu Changxin clutched his stomach, laughing until he was doubled over.
Tang Yuan's expression turned extremely ugly. He stared intently at Lu Yang and roared, "Useless! Get out! You've completely disgraced my Tang family today!"
Tang Zixuan said with a sneer, "My chairman brother-in-law, could you arrange for me to join Haitong Group too? Just a manager would be fine?"
"Brother, this idiot is completely deluded. Today he claims to be the chairman of Haitong Group, and tomorrow he'll probably claim to be the leader of China!"
Tang Ziqi also sneered repeatedly.
"Lu Yang, what does chairman mean? How did you become the chairman? If you're the chairman, can you buy me a lot of delicious food?"
At this moment, Tang Shi Min, who had finished her cake, held Lu Yang's hand and asked with confusion.
"Don't talk about delicious food. If you want something, he'll buy it for you. But that's only if your useless husband is the chairman. Look at him, how he looks, how he's dressed. Does he look like chairman material?"
"Look at Young Master Liu. He's handsome, full of spirit, and incredibly wealthy. Shi Min, why don't you go play with Young Master Liu? Young Master Liu will buy you delicious food!"
Tang Zixuan said to Tang Shi Min, trying to coax her.
"No, I don't want to go to Liu Changxin. He's a bad guy and always bullies me!"
Tang Shi Min pouted.
"Alright, stop talking about this useless stuff. Lu Yang, hurry up and crawl under my legs!"
Liu Changxin said impatiently to Lu Yang, roaring.
"You don't believe me? Then you must know who this is, right?"
Lu Yang sneered, directly opened his phone, found Lin Guoxiong's number, and held it out to Liu Changxin.
"You're really a freak! Why do you have Mr. Lin's number saved on your phone? If you say that, then I'll save the phone number of the world's capital on my phone and become the richest man in the world?"
Liu Changxin didn't believe it at all.
Lin Guoxiong, the general manager of Haitong Group, was the representative of Haitong Group. His phone number was known to everyone and could be found with a simple online search. It was normal to have it saved on a phone, but using it to show off was problematic.
"Since you don't believe me, then I'll let him tell you himself!"
Lu Yang said, and directly dialed.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off!"
As soon as the call was made, a cold prompt immediately sounded.
Everyone was stunned, then burst into uproarious laughter.
"Chairman Lu, is this what you meant by letting him tell me himself?"
"You probably just randomly found a number and deliberately tried to show off in front of everyone. If I hadn't exposed you, you might have succeeded in showing off today!"
Liu Changxin burst into laughter again.
"Young Master Liu, you can't believe what this idiot says. Not a word he speaks is true. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to trick Shi Min into marrying him!"
Tang Zixuan said with a fawning smile.
At this moment, Tang Mingde, who had been standing by, could no longer stand it. He strode forward, snatched the old phone from Lu Yang's hand, and smashed it heavily to the ground, instantly shattering it into pieces.
"You useless good-for-nothing! Do you still not feel enough shame? You're just spouting nonsense and lies!"
"Before, when Xiumei hit you, I used to support you. But seeing you like this now, I truly regret my past actions. Get out immediately, and never set foot in my house again!"
Tang Mingde trembled with anger.
The people around also began to condemn and curse Lu Yang. They had genuinely been bluffed by Lu Yang's words, holding their breath and waiting for the call to connect. The result was such a huge joke, and everyone felt like their faces and intelligence were being trampled and ground by Lu Yang, grinding, grinding, on the smooth floor, grinding...
"Slap!"
Li Xiumei, unwilling to be outdone, slapped Lu Yang across the face before he could react.
"You stinking idiot, you're worse than the poodle we keep at home! Who gave you permission to yell and shout here? Do you really think you're someone? A chairman? Bah! Get out, get out now..."
"Hahahahaha..."
All around, there were onlookers. Wave after wave of mocking laughter erupted.
