"Correct the error immediately"?
Huangfu Jue’s intention was clear—he wouldn’t let it slide just like that.
Everyone present was no fool, and of course, they all understood what he meant.
Anna pursed her lips tightly, the smile at the corner of her mouth freezing on her face, her complexion already pale as paper.
Standing beneath the stage, Rod took a helpless breath, clenched his teeth, raised his hand to support himself on the stage, and struggled to climb up, walking briskly over to pull his son Jerry from behind his wife.
"Didn’t you hear to apologize... come out!"
This time, the embarrassment was all because of his disappointing son; Rod’s fury was self-evident.
"Don’t, let me go... Mommy, save me..."
Just moments ago, the overbearing Jerry now resembled a frightened bird, shrieking and shrinking back behind his mother.
Anna, who ultimately couldn’t bear it, reached out in entreaty and grabbed her husband’s arm, "Please!"
"Get off!" Rod shook Anna’s arm off, dragged Jerry from behind her, and pulled him in front of Gan Tang, "Apologize!"
"I won’t, let me go!"
Jerry was just a child; he didn’t understand the reason for his father’s compromise and stubbornly refused to speak.
As Rod urged him several times and he still resisted, anger rose from his heart, and Rod raised his hand.
A slap struck fiercely across Jerry’s face, and with one slap, Jerry fell to the ground, a red handprint appearing on his right cheek.
Usually pampered boundlessly by his mother, this was the first time Jerry had ever been hit by his father since he was born.
The slap, given in a fit of anger by Rod, was naturally very forceful.
With his cheek burning in pain, Jerry felt both pain and fear, forgetting even to cry, just staring in fright at his father who was showing his temper for the first time.
Annie screamed, wanting to rush over, but Anna hastily stretched out her arm to hold her back.
Huangfu Jue’s meaning was very clear—if today’s matters weren’t settled here, he wouldn’t let them go.
Anna sure didn’t want her nephew’s impulsiveness to ruin the image she held in Huangfu Jue’s eyes.
Rod shouted fiercely.
Jerry wiped away his tears with his hand, endured the pain and got up from the ground, walking towards Gan Tang.
His eyes were filled with hatred.
In his mind, all of this was because of Gan Tang.
Having been hit by Gan Tang before, he had been holding a grudge, and upon spotting Gan Tang just now, he immediately followed, seeking revenge for that punch.
In the end, it was him who took the beating, and he still had to apologize. Feeling the burning pain on his face, his hatred for Gan Tang reached its peak.
As he was about to confront Gan Tang, a strange light flashed in his grey-blue eyes, then suddenly he accelerated and charged at Gan Tang like a little madman.
He had no intention of apologizing to a little yellow-skinned bastard; as he ran toward Gan Tang, his eyes were filled with venom.
He was going to push that little bastard off the stage and kill him...
The incident happened so suddenly, by the time everyone realized what he intended to do, all were shocked and changed expressions.
This included his parents and Anna.
Several people cried out at the same time, and the audience beneath the stage also widened their eyes in astonishment.
Qiao Liang screamed and rushed over.
Gan Yuan also saw that the situation was bad and stepped forward to grab his son, turning his body to protect him.
A figure flashed past, grabbing Jerry before he could reach Gan Tang.
