The master went down the mountain

This question really hit Lin Yuantu hard!

He had already contacted all the members of the Annihilation Alliance, proposing to join forces to kill Tang Zhan, but the Annihilation Alliance refused, saying that Tang Zhan was not worth the Annihilation Alliance's cooperation!

"The Lin family is not a member of the Alliance to Destroy Tang. Tang Zhan must have been deceived, which is why he has been targeting the Lin family!"

Lin Yuantu was talking nonsense with a straight face.

He cannot admit that the Lin family is a member of the Alliance to Destroy the Tang Dynasty, especially not in front of Gong Han, an official member. If he admits it, Gong Han has the right to arrest him and the Lin family directly!

"Old fox..." Tang Zhan cursed inwardly, and asked:

"If that's the case, why didn't you step forward to refute the rumors? If you could just find a way to prove that the Lin family isn't a member of the Alliance to Destroy Tang, Tang Zhan would naturally stop targeting the Lin family!"

"I have no evidence to prove that the Lin family is not a member of the anti-Tang alliance, nor do I need to refute this rumor. The innocent are innocent, and as long as the country believes the Lin family is innocent, that's enough. The fact that the country sent you to protect the Lin family proves precisely that the country believes the Lin family is not a member of the anti-Tang alliance!"

Lin Yuantu spoke with righteous indignation and impassioned passion.

Tang Zhan was defeated by Lin Yuantu's shamelessness. It seems that we will have to put in more effort to get the complete list of the anti-Tang alliance from this old fox!

"Time will prove the Lin family is innocent!" Tang Zhan said against his will.

"Yes, let's leave it to time!"

Lin Yuantu sighed and changed the subject, asking:

"You've come so early, you probably haven't had breakfast yet, have you?"

"Yes!" Tang Zhan nodded.

Lin Yuantu looked at the butler: "Take Mr. Gong to the restaurant for dinner!"

"My mission is to protect you closely!"

Tang Zhan put on a dutiful and responsible demeanor and said!

Lin Yuantu was very satisfied with this and said:

"The Lin Clan Ancestral Hall has sufficient security. As long as I don't leave the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall, there will be no danger. You can go and eat without worry!"

"All right!"

Tang Zhan had no choice but to agree, and then followed the butler to the restaurant!

Because the Lin family had been kept awake all night by the elderly folks, most of them were still asleep, which resulted in only two people eating in the huge restaurant!

Those were two women!

A beautiful middle-aged woman and a beautiful young girl!

"Madam, Miss Mu Yao!"

The butler greeted the two women respectfully and introduced Tang Zhan, who was standing to the side:

"This is Gong Han, sent by the Xuanmen Club to protect the master!"

The mother and daughter ignored the housekeeper and Tang Zhan!

The butler, oblivious, whispered to Tang Zhan:

"They are Third Master Lin Qingsong's wife and daughter, Gao Mengyue and Lin Muyao. Third Master just died, and they're in a bad mood. You can eat here; I'll head back now. You can go home by yourself after you finish eating!"

Seeing Tang Zhan nod, he turned and left!

The restaurant served a very generous spread of food, and Tang Zhan ordered a huge amount without any hesitation. He chose a seat that was a bit far from the mother and daughter and began to eat heartily!

"Mom, please eat something. Your body can't take it if you don't eat!"

Lin Muyao sobbed as she tried to comfort her.

"I'm not hungry, you eat!" Gao Mengyue said.

Both of them had red and swollen eyes, clearly having cried for a long time, and their breakfasts remained untouched!

"I'll eat if you eat, and I won't eat if you don't!"

Lin Muyao tried to force her mother to eat something using this method!

"I really can't eat anymore!"

As Gao Mengyue spoke, large tears streamed down her face again!

Her crying made Lin Muyao cry too. As she cried, she saw Tang Zhan eating and drinking heartily, and instantly became furious. She stood up, stormed over to Tang Zhan, swept the plates onto the floor, and yelled:

"Eat, eat, all you know is eating! Are all the people in your Xuanmen Club gluttons?"

Tang Zhan looked bewildered: "What did I do to offend you?"

"Snapped!"

Lin Muyao slapped Tang Zhan across the face and cursed:

"How dare you talk back to me? Who gave you the guts to talk back to me?"

Tang Zhan was furious. It was the first time in his life he had been slapped, but for the sake of his undercover mission, he suppressed his anger, stood up, and apologized:

"I apologize, I'm sorry!"

"Is a simple 'sorry' all you're going to do? Kneel down, eat all the food on the ground like a dog, and then lick the floor clean!"

Lin Muyao pointed to the food on the ground and gave the order.

"Isn't that going too far?"

Tang Zhan once again suppressed the urge to slap Lin Muyao to death!

"Excessive? You're nothing but a dog, how dare you call your master excessive? I'll beat you to death..."

Lin Muyao raised her hand and slapped Tang Zhan's face again!

Tang Zhan was no longer willing to tolerate it, and Gong Han's persona wouldn't allow him to continue to endure it!

He blocked Lin Muyao's slap, and an aura like that of a savage, prehistoric beast erupted forth, overwhelming Lin Muyao as he coldly stared at her and said:

"I know Lin Qingsong is dead, and you're heartbroken, but that's no reason for you to humiliate the Xuanmen Club and slap me. I was sent by the Xuanmen Club to protect Lin Yuantu. What right do you have to hit me or curse me?"

Lin Muyao was so frightened by the terrifying aura emanating from Tang Zhan that her pretty face turned pale, and she didn't know how to refute him for a moment!

"Just because she's a member of the Lin family, just because she's Lin Qingsong's daughter, that's her reason for acting with impunity!"

Gao Mengyue walked over and coldly stared at Tang Zhan as she spoke.

Tang Zhan frowned. He had thought Gao Mengyue had come to apologize to him on behalf of Lin Muyao, but he hadn't expected her to come to support Lin Muyao!

No wonder Lin Muyao has such a bad temper; the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked too!

With Gao Mengyue as her backer, Lin Muyao finally had the courage to refute:

"Do you think that just because you're a bodyguard sent by the Xuanmen Club to protect Grandpa, you're qualified to sit on equal footing with the Lin family? In the eyes of the Lin family, members of the Xuanmen Club are all dogs, forever inferior, several levels below the Lin family!"

If other members of the Xuanmen Club were here, they would definitely be furious at Lin Muyao's words. After all, Lin Muyao's words were tantamount to launching a general attack, calling all members of the Xuanmen Club dogs!

"So, according to you, if you slap me or yell at me, I should thank you?"

Tang Zhan's eyes grew sharper and his face darker!

"So, I took that slap for nothing? I endured that scolding for nothing?"

"I hit you because I was being lenient. Get out of here and never eat at this restaurant again. Dogs only deserve to eat outside; they don't deserve to eat in a restaurant like humans!"

Lin Muyao pointed at the restaurant entrance and scolded.

Tang Zhan was furious, but he still refrained from making a move, and said coldly:

"Yesterday, Lin Canglan disrespected me at the Xuanmen Club, so I slapped him; also yesterday, Su Rui tried to take advantage of An Mengtian in front of me, so I slapped his face until it was bruised; still yesterday, Tian Ye, instigated by Su Qingxue, tried to break my right hand, so I slapped him away; at the same time, I tore Su Qingxue's clothes in public..."

At this point, Tang Zhan coldly stared at Lin Muyao and Gao Mengyue, and threatened:

"So you'd better apologize to me right now and give me appropriate compensation, or I don't mind letting you taste what my slap feels like!"
