Mu Xiao Hai and Yang Yun both had looks of shock on their faces as they couldn't believe what had just happened.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan just had a faint smile on his lips as he looked at this kid.
He could tell that this was a good kid by how he treated Yang Yun, but he could also tell that this Mu Xiao Hai was quite the excitable kid.
He also found Mu Xiao Hai's name quite funny.
The Mu Family really had a unique naming sense. The grandfather was Mu Bo Hai, the father was Mu Dong Hai, and the son was Mu Xiao Hai, every generation was named after the sea!
But it almost seemed like they became lazy when it came to Mu Xiao Hai's generation, just naming him small sea…
Once Mu Xiao Hai got over the shock of being slapped, he immediately jumped up again and shouted, "You actually dare to slap me! Are you looking to be trashed!"
Lin Fan just shook his head before suddenly taking Mu Xiao Hai's hand and pulling him forward.
Mu Xiao Hai lost his balance and he soon found himself lying down over Lin Fan's knee, while Lin Fan had a hand raised in the air.
Mu Xiao Hai had a bad feeling where this was leading and that feeling was correct as Lin Fan's hand fell right down on his butt, with a firm slapping sound.
It came down again and again on his butt cheeks, making Mu Xiao Hai call out in shock every time his butt was slapped.
After several dozen slaps, Lin Fan finally let Mu Xiao Hai up.
Mu Xiao Hai just rubbed his aching butt as he stood there in a daze, not understanding what had just happened.
But this time it wasn't Mu Xiao Hai that acted up, rather it was Yang Yun.
She came up to Mu Xiao Hai and looked at the mark on his face, which she couldn't help knitting her brows at.
She took out a little jade bottle from her storage and poured the ointment onto her finger before she gently applied it to Mu Xiao Hai's cheek.
When the cool sensation of the balm touched his cheek, Mu Xiao Hai suddenly realized what was happening. The joy that he felt from this far outweighed the pain from his butt as he grabbed Yang Yun's hand with a wide smile, "Xiao Yun, I knew you cared for me."
Yang Yun was surprised at first, but then she actually just gently slapped his hand away as she said, "Stop talking, let me finish."
She slowly applied the ointment onto his face and once she was finished, she slapped a gauze over it.
Mu Xiao Hai winced a bit when the gauze was placed on, but then he felt nothing. It was only then did he remember the pain from his butt. He said with an awkward smile, "Xiao Yun, what about my butt?"
Yang Yun's gentle expression disappeared as she knit her brows again. She went behind Mu Xiao Hai and he was expectant as he raised his butt slightly, but then he suddenly felt a foot collide with his butt and it sent him flying.
Yang Yun then ignored him as she turned to Lin Fan, "You really have ruined my view of you. Here I thought that you were an honest and righteous person."
Lin Fan spread his hands and said, "One must treat others how they themselves want to be treated. If you didn't treat me like this first, I wouldn't have done anything." But then he said with a sly smile, "But it seems like you don't hate this boy like you pretend to do."
Yang Yun couldn't refute this since she did plan to use Lin Fan to get away from Mu Xiao Hai, but still, he didn't have to be this rough with him. She just gave a soft snort and walked away.
Mu Xiao Hai saw that Yang Yun was leaving and knew that there was no point in provoking Lin Fan anymore. He just turned to Lin Fan and said, "I'll remember you." Then he ran off to chase after Yang Yun.
Lin Fan turned to Angela before both of them revealed wide smiles.
These two kids didn't have bad personalities, it just they didn't know how to be honest with their feelings. Rather one of them was too honest with their feelings and that made the other one feel shy, ruining their chances.
The funniest part was that these two who were incredibly dense with love were actually criticizing the love life of someone else!
Once this was over, Lin Fan and Angela took their beast carriage back to the Mu Manor.
Some time had passed since they had gone to the Alchemy Tower and now it was close to dinner, so Mu Dong Hai had also finished his meetings. He had been waiting for them to come back to entertain them.
When they had just sat down in the living room and the maids had brought over tea and snacks, there was someone who burst through the door. This was a person who Lin Fan and Angela were already acquainted with.
Mu Xiao Hai burst right through the doors and shouted, "Dad, I'm home!"
But then when he saw who was sitting in the living room, his chin dropped down in shock as he stammered out, "You, you, you, what are you doing here!?"
Mu Dong Hai revealed a confused look, "Xiao Hai, you know Brother Lin?"
Mu Xiao Hai's chin dropped even further to the ground as he said, "Dad, did you just call this man brother?"
Mu Dong Hai was even more confused, but when he was about to ask his son what he meant, Lin Fan cut in first, "Why can't I be here and why can't I be his brother?"
Mu Xiao Hai ignored this and pointed at Lin Fan's face, "Dad, you have to take revenge for me! This bastard slapped me and spanked me in public today, you have to take revenge for me!"
Mu Dong Hai first looked over at Lin Fan with a brow raised before he turned back to slap Mu Xiao Hai on the back of his head, "Who taught you this kind of language? Brother Lin is your elder generation, you have to treat him with respect! You should at least call him uncle."
Uncle?
Uncle!?
This brat had slapped his face and spanked his butt and now he was to call him uncle?
What kind of world was this?
Was this bastard a part of the Mu Family or was he a part of the Mu Family?
Was he adopted after all?!
Mu Xiao Hai wouldn't give up as he said, "But dad, he's nothing good. He's someone who bullies the weak and only knows how to act arrogantly!"
Mu Dong Hai slapped Mu Xiao Hai in the back of the head again, "Like I don't know what kind of personality you have. If Brother Lin disciplined you, you must have done something to deserve it."
Mu Xiao Hai just didn't know what to say anymore, even his family wouldn't side with him.
Mu Dong Hai glared at him as he said, "If you don't apologize to your Uncle Lin now, I can guarantee you'll receive a proper punishment for not knowing how to respect your elders."
Mu Xiao Hai looked at his dad with aggrieved eyes, but eventually he had to give in.
He gritted his teeth for a bit before relaxing them and saying, "Uncle Lin, I'm sorry for my behaviour from before. Please forgive me."
As he said this, his eyes were filled with unwillingness.
Lin Fan just smiled and said, "It's good to be young, you're allowed to make mistakes while you're young. But you should learn from them in the future."
Mu Xiao Hai gritted his teeth so hard that he almost shattered them when he heard this. His eyes were bloodshot and he almost vomited out blood, but there was nothing he could do.
In the end, Mu Xiao Hai quickly left the room since he couldn't stay with this man any longer.
When Mu Xiao Hai was gone, Mu Dong Hai apologized first, "Brother Lin, I'm sorry for the disrespect my son has shown you."
Lin Fan just waved his hand before saying in an apologetic voice, "Brother Mu, some of the fault lies with me as well. I may have been a bit rash when I disciplined your son."
Mu Dong Hai just gave a soft snort when he heard this before saying, "I know what kind of person my son is." Then he gave a sigh as he said, "He's my only son and my wife may have spoiled him a bit too much. Brother Lin, please feel free to discipline him whenever you want, it would do that brat some good."
Lin Fan just smiled and said, "Brother Mu, I will keep your words in mind. But still, that kid has a good personality, he just needs to be corrected a bit."
Mu Dong Hai said, "Thank you for your compliments Brother Lin and I hope that you will keep looking out for him."
With this harmonious atmosphere, they spent a good night having a feast.
As for the story of Angela beating Mu Dong Hai up over a piece of cake, that would be for another time.
