The tension in the room was oppressive, but the two did not move their eyes away from each other.
After a long while of standstill, Old Xiong stood up.
"Get out. You ungrateful brat. Call your father once you are out."
Linfeng bowed again and stay on his spot.
"What? No longer following orders, are we?" Old Xiong's voice was murderous. This boy had touched his bottom line many times today. If not because he was Zhou Min's son, and a talented butler that could help his granddaughter to boot, he would have already dragged him out of the Xiong Mansion, banishing him from the family tree of the Zhou family.
As the headmaster of the Xiong family whom the Zhou family was loyally serving, Old Xiong had every authority to do that on any misbehaving butler.
Linfeng knew about this. He was taking a huge risk. However, he would not easily yield.
