Chapter 403: 403

"Then let’s go. Today is for the youngsters, and many childhood friends are here," Zhou Na said.

Zhou Ming’s mouth curled into a cold smile as he looked at Lin Dong, thinking that when they arrived at the Zhou family’s home, he would definitely reclaim the loss of face from last time—double!

And so, Lin Dong, Qiao Bing, Chu Lan, and the others followed Zhou Na and Zhou Ming to the Zhou family’s place.

The Zhou family’s villa was right next to the Qiao family’s.

Though their villa was the same size as that of the Qiao family, the decorations were even more luxurious.

After Lin Dong and his group arrived, they saw that the Zhou family’s dining table in the hall was full.

Their dining table was of the Western long rectangular kind, capable of seating thirty to forty people.

Seated at the head of the table was naturally Elder Zhou Shichang of the Zhou family.

Also present was Zhou Shichang’s son, Zhou Na and Zhou Ming’s father Zhou Wenqing.

And Zhou Na’s mother Wang Ling, whom Lin Dong had met before.

Of course, most of the people here were young.

Among the youth, Zhou Na’s boyfriend Lu Feng led the group.

"Qiao Bing, Chu Lan, you’ve arrived."

As an elder, Elder Zhou Shichang did not wish to be petty with the younger generation, despite his longstanding feud with Elder Qiao.

He maintained the necessary courtesies.

Qiao Bing and Chu Lan also greeted him in return and then proceeded to take their seats.

But as they did, they realized there was one seat missing.

And on one seat, a dog was actually lying down.

"Elder Zhou, what is the meaning of this?"

Chu Lan, as well as everyone else, had been invited to take a seat, except for Lin Dong and Qiao Bing, who had not sat down.

The Zhou family members showed no intention of making room for them, prompting Qiao Bing to ask Elder Zhou Shichang.

Elder Zhou Shichang did not respond.

Zhou Na hurriedly interjected:

"Little Bing, isn’t there a seat available? Take a seat, won’t you?"

"But there’s still one seat short. Where will my boyfriend sit?" asked Qiao Bing with an unhappy face, her voice icy cold.

"Him? He can stand," Zhou Ming said, spreading his hands.

"Isn’t there a seat taken by that dog? Just clear that seat," someone suggested.

However, as soon as this was said, Zhou Na and Zhou Ming’s mother, Wang Ling, hastily spoke up:

"No, that won’t do. Xiao Qi is also a member of our family. We usually eat with it as well."

Was she saying that Lin Dong’s status was even lower than their family dog’s?

Qiao Bing’s face turned extremely ugly and she firmly grabbed Lin Dong’s hand, saying:

"We’ll pass on the meal. You call us over and then pull something like this—seriously lacks class!"

Seeing this, Zhou Na and others did not speak up.

Because this was all intentional on their part, for the sole purpose of humiliating Lin Dong!

Chu Lan urged, "Little Bing, just take a seat. Let Lin Dong either stand or go back by himself, can’t he?"

"He’s never been part of our circle anyway."

"Not having a seat reserved for him is normal!"

Many people beside them also began to persuade Qiao Bing.

"Little Bing, we’ve been playmates since childhood. After so many years, why leave now?"

"Exactly, take a seat. As for your boyfriend, just send him away, can’t you?"

"Boyfriends can be changed, but childhood friends can’t be replaced."

"..."

Those people found it quite normal for the Zhou family to do such a thing.

Instead, they advised Qiao Bing to sit down and eat, telling Lin Dong to get out!

Upon hearing this, Qiao Bing was extremely angry. Especially towards her cousin Chu Lan—how could her own cousin take such a stance?

Actually siding with the Zhou family?

"Lin Dong, be sensible and get out yourself! Our circle isn’t for the likes of you. Even a dog holds a higher status than you!" Chu Lan said with arrogance, frowning at Lin Dong.

Zhou Na and Zhou Ming watched Lin Dong with sneering faces, awaiting his shameful departure.

But Lin Dong did not leave. Instead, he addressed Chu Lan and the others:

"Proud of your circle, are you? Sitting on an equal footing with a dog—doesn’t that make you dogs as well?"

Gasps!

Upon hearing these words, everyone’s faces darkened.

He had managed to scold without using a single foul word—and his points were hard to dispute!

"Elder Zhou, it seems you’re the leader of a pack of dogs. The Zhou Dog Clan is surely flourishing with canine prosperity. Tsk tsk, not only does your clan teem with dogs, but you also attract traitor dogs to join your big family."

"I don’t think it’ll be long before the Zhou Dog Clan dominates the dog world and strikes fear in all directions..."

The more Lin Dong spoke, the more enthusiastic he became, and the faces of everyone seated at the dining table grew more and more ugly.

Initially, their faces were just grey, but by the end, they were ashen as the bottom of pots.

Especially Zhou Shichang—he had held a high position of pharmaceutical director and was unaccustomed to being spoken to in this manner.

"Lin Dong, are you seeking death?" Chu Lan slammed the table and stood up, shouting.

"Oh, the folks from the Zhou Dog Clan haven’t even spoken yet, and here you are, an outsider dog, getting anxious?"

"Surely, you’re well-suited to be a traitor dog."

"You..." Chu Lan was so angry that her chest heaved, and she couldn’t even speak properly.

"I am Little Bing’s cousin, how dare you speak to me like that?"

Lin Dong snorted, "Now you remember you’re Qiao Bing’s cousin? What were you doing just now? Having fun helping outsiders bully Sister Bing?"

With those words spoken, a gaze filled with pressure landed upon her.

In an instant, Chu Lan felt an overwhelming force bearing down on her, causing her to lose her balance and stumble backward.

Seeing this, Lu Feng, who had been silent the whole time, looked at Lin Dong, and his expression subtly changed...
