Then, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief. There was always a first time for everyone. Initially, he had been pretty nervous but thankfully there werent a lot of people present and he felt more relaxed.
Whats the meaning of this? Lin Fan was puzzled by the four people kneeling on the ground.
Zhao Ming Qing looked at his four children and sighed. Its all because of the four of you.
Zhao Li Xing lowered his head. Dad, I
Dont call me dad. I dont have children like you. Zhao Ming Qing was furious. He was already old and it wasnt easy for him to get angry. However, this time, it was obvious that his children had done something to cause the discipleship ceremony to turn out like that.
Ming Qing, dont be angry. What happened? Lin Fan was curious. Could there be a hidden meaning?
Zhao Ming Qing said, Teacher, they thought I met a conman and I dont even know what these four children did. Li Xing, tell me, what did you do?
Zhao Li Xing was the oldest sibling and he had to answer for it. Dad, weve not been supportive of you having a mentor. Hes so young. How could his medical skills be compared to yours? We all thought that youve been conned. Therefore, we called our Aunties and Uncles to stop them from coming. Itd be shameful.
What did you say? Say that again. Shameful? Whod be shameful? Zhao Ming Qing had been rather appeased but after hearing his words, he was infuriated. Then, he looked around as if he was looking for something to use to teach them a lesson.
Zhao Shi couldnt take it any longer. Husband, the children meant well. Dont be so angry.
Shut up. Youve always been lenient with them. Look at how theyve turned out. Do you even know what it means to respect your mentor? Zhao Ming Qing was furious while Elder Mu tried to appease him.
Zhao Ming Qing couldnt accept it and felt that his mentor had been unfairly treated. They couldnt understand the talents of his teacher. It was his great fortune to have met a teacher like him. These people actually ruined a grand ceremony. If it was told to the public, people would definitely laugh at him and his mentor.
Ming Qing, Lin Fan said. It felt rather weird calling an old man over seventy years old by his first name but he believed that he would be used to it soon.
Zhao Ming Qing came to Lin Fan. Teacher, I
Lin Fan waved his hand. Its okay. Forget it. Its not a big thing. Its normal anyway. After all, Im too young and your children meant well. Lets just ignore this and I wont care about this. Since you take me as your teacher, I will impart my skills to you and you have to be serious in learning. The secrets of Chinese medicine are difficult to teach by mouth. Ill teach you personally when Im free.
Its rather late now and Im pretty tired. Ill be heading back first to rest.
Zhao Ming Qing said, Teacher, Ill send you back.
Lin Fan smiled. Its okay. Youre already so old. You dont have to send me back. The ceremony is already completed. Dont take it too seriously from now on. Ill be leaving now.
He stood up and prepared to leave.
Zhao Ming Qing sent him to the door personally and his children were still kneeling on the ground. They knew that it was just the beginning and things were far from over. But they really didnt believe that he wasnt a conman. They believed that it was temporal and he would definitely be exposed one day.
At the entrance.
Teacher, its all because of me, Zhao Ming Qing said guiltily. It had been supposed to be a grand ceremony and it had become like this. He was extremely saddened.
Lin Fan wasnt older than Zhao Ming Qing but he was his mentor. He patted Zhao Qing Mings shoulder. Alright, its nothing much. I think it was a traditional and grand ceremony. You can go back and have a rest.
Teacher, have a safe trip! Elder Mu waved his hand.
After sending him off, Zhao Ming Qings face turned as black as thunder. Scumbags. I have to kill these four rascals.
Elder Mu tried to persuade him, Elder Zhao, what are you doing? Your children are so old already. You shouldnt resort to violence.
Theyre still kids in my eyes regardless of how old they are. My mentor is now their grand teacher. They dont even know basic respect. They deserve to be beaten. Zhao Ming Qing was an understanding man but he was extremely strict with his own children. He went to the lobby and took a duster from the staff. Then, he said, Miss, Ill borrow this duster for awhile.'
The person nodded as she had to agree to the requests of customers.
Back in the hall.
Zhao Li Xing and the others looked at each other. Sigh, were dead this time.
Zhao Shi said, Quickly run away now. When your dad comes back, youll be doomed.
Zhao Li Xing shook his head. Mum, you dont have to say anything else. Well take it this time. When dad realizes that he has been conned in the future, hell remember today.
Then, Zhao Ming Qings voice came.
Elder Zhao, listen to me. Forget about it. Elder Mu said.
The door got pushed open.
Zhao Ming Qing stood there furiously. His teacher had been there and he hadnt wanted things to turn out ugly even though Lin Fan didnt mind. He hadnt wanted to let him see this scene as it was supposed to be a grand ceremony. Now, he couldnt tolerate it anymore.
Qun Fang, stand aside, Zhao Ming Qing said.
Zhao Qun Fang heaved a sigh of relief. If her dad really started to beat them up, she wouldnt have dared to grumble. However, she was already married and he felt that she should be disciplined by her husbands side only.
The three brothers looked at their sister and it was a little awkward. She was so lucky. She didnt even think of being beaten up together or even say anything nice to appease him.
They knew that they were doomed when they saw their sisters nonchalant expression.
Zhao Ming Qing stood in front of his children. Do you know what wrong youve done?
Zhao Li Xing was already in his twenties but he was like a kid kneeling in front of his dad. Dad, this
*Smack!*
Zhao Ming Qing swung the duster at Zhao Li Xings back. Then, he said firmly, Youre already so old and you think you can handle things yourselves. Do you remember teaching your younger brothers the rules when you were young?
I remember, Zhao Li Xing said. He just nodded in agreement.
Recite it now. Although Zhao Ming Qing was old, he suddenly raged and beat the three of them with the duster.
Zhao Shi couldnt watch any longer and she shook her head at Elder Mu. However, she didnt say anything as the children had gone overboard this time.
One should listen to the orders of ones parents and one shouldnt be lazy to execute the task
Zhao Ming Qing said sternly, I tolerated all of that.
I tolerated all of that
He continued hitting them until he broke down. Zhao Li Xing and his two brothers closed their eyes when they saw that. They felt heartbroken. One should listen to the teachings of ones parents.
One has to be responsible for their parents.
At that moment, a lot of people came.
When they saw what was happening, they were stunned. Then, they gasped, Elder Zhao, what are you doing? Why are you hitting your sons? Stop!
Elder Mu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw them. Finally, somebody was there to salvage the situation. Although it was a little late, it wasnt too late.
