With the words of Lan Hongtai falling, Yue Siqing's face turned cold, and a strong sense of anger brewed in her eyes, as if it could erupt at any moment.
"Lan Jingkuang, what do you have to say about this matter?"
Yue Taotian, seeing Lan Hongtai's unwillingness to engage, had no choice but to turn his attention to Lan Jingkuang.
He was also extremely angry in his heart. He, as the head of the Yue family, had never been so humiliated.
If Lan Jingkuang had a little more ability and became the head of the Lan family, he wouldn't have to consider Lan Hongtai's opinions now!
They had already helped wherever they could. They thought that after dealing with the new troublemaker Lan Yunxiao, Lan Jingkuang would smoothly ascend to the position of the family head.
Unexpectedly, Lan Hongtai, this old stubborn, was so unyielding and never wanted to let Lan Jingkuang become the family head.
Over the years, although Lan Jingkuang's position in the Lan family was not much different from that of the family head, there was still a gap.
At least, in such a situation, Lan Jingkuang couldn't make the final decision.
Seeing Yue Taotian redirecting the question to him, Lan Jingkuang was also in a dilemma.
In the current situation, if he agreed, it would undoubtedly bring trouble to the entire Lan family. If he refused, Yue Taotian would probably not give up.
Lan Hongtai remained indifferent. This matter was caused by Lan Jingkuang himself. After the incident happened, he no longer had any affection for Lan Jingkuang, his son.
Because even Lan Hongtai himself found it hard to accept that he had such a ruthless and merciless son!
"Father Yue, this..."
Lan Jingkuang hesitated. This matter happened so suddenly that he didn't know how to handle it.
The current situation in the Lan family was already unpredictable. If handled carelessly, it could lead to trouble.
Seeing Lan Jingkuang showing hesitation, Yue Taotian's face became even uglier.
"Lan Jingkuang, my Yue family has helped you so much. If you burn the bridges after crossing the river, you are truly despicable!"
Hearing Yue Taotian's accusations, Lan Jingkuang quickly spoke, "Father Yue, this matter happened too suddenly. We need time to think it over."
His mind was in a state of chaos, and he didn't know how to make a decision at the moment.
Seeing that Lan Jingkuang still had some fear towards him, Yue Taotian's gloomy face improved slightly.
In the end, the members of the Yue family stayed temporarily in the Lan family, while the elders of the Lan family had to discuss how to handle this matter.
No one wanted to get involved in such a big trouble. However, considering the good relationship between the Yue family and them over the years, ignoring it would also be detrimental to their reputation.
"Family Head, now that members of the Yue family have arrived, it would be heartless and unrighteous to drive them away like this."
Lan Jingkuang looked at Lan Hongtai with an embarrassed expression. At this point, he had no other choice.
Lan Hongtai had a cold face. "I have always said to cut ties with the Yue family, but you insisted on maintaining contact. Now you understand the consequences of your actions, don't you?"
His words were filled with reproach towards Lan Jingkuang, and the other elders who had supported Lan Jingkuang were now silent.
"Lord Jingkuang, the Family Head is right. The Yue family has offended such a formidable poison master. Once they target our Lan family, we might be the next Yue family. We have to consider the interests of the clan!" Lan Borong quickly spoke up.
