“`
All the family heads knelt down in unison, even the old man from the Shen Family, although he was well into his seventies or eighties, knelt too!
Tang Ke was stunned on the spot, his brain completely muddled in that instant, and he was so shocked that he forgot to immediately get up, just staring at them dumbfounded.
Damn it, what the hell is going on? Even if it’s acting, it shouldn’t be this realistic!
Tang Ke felt a vague sense of unease, and when he came to his senses, he subconsciously tried to get up from the ground.
After all, as the head of his family, Tang Ke didn’t want to embarrass himself when the waiter came over later.
No sooner had he begun to rise than another heavy blow struck the back of his knees, and he fell to his knees again in pain.

Tang Ke turned his head, his eyes filled with a surprising fury as he glared viciously at He Sulan.
The damn old hag, she actually hit his leg with her walking stick again.
Does she think he’s that easy-going?
But who would’ve thought that He Sulan, the instigator, showed no guilt as she scolded on the spot, “The ancestral authority didn’t give you permission to rise, who gave you the audacity to get up?”
Tang Ke: “…”
What in the world is going on? He almost believed that this group of old men and women had collectively succumbed to senility!
Liu Jingyuan, who was following behind Bai Chuwei, was also bewildered, what on earth was happening?
Why had a group of people all knelt down?
Although Liu Jingyuan didn’t recognize a few of these old men and women, he had at least heard of the annual family summit held by the eight great families, and had seen Qi Mo among them.
They all… all knelt down.
Liu Jingyuan’s mind went blank, unsure whether he should kneel down with them.
Bai Chuwei let out a light laugh and said nonchalantly, “Stand up.”
The crowd immediately helped each other up, their expressions filled with an excitement beyond words.
Forget about Tang Ke, forget about their own descendants, none of these were the focus of their discussion.
The group immediately surrounded Bai Chuwei, all talking at once.
“Ancestor, why did you suddenly come down from the mountain? You didn’t give us any notice.”
Another old man was even more anxious, his face red and slapping his thigh constantly, “I didn’t know at all, I wasn’t prepared for anything…”
“Ancestor, please have a seat, quickly, take a seat,” one of the younger family heads said softly, but then turned his head and bellowed fiercely, “Waiter?! Where did the waiter roll off to? Bring the tea! The best tea!”
Qi Mo, looking at the sky, also said gently, “Ancestor, shall I find someone to fetch a few parasols to give you some shade?”
“…”
Bai Chuwei sighed, overwhelmed by the noisy younger generation, these kids were just too young, they hadn’t experienced the real turmoils of life.
And right there, Tang Ke was completely gobsmacked.
What the… what in the devil’s name is this?
These were all dignified family heads famous across China, and now they were groveling like lackeys in a TV drama, as if they wished they could engrave the word “loyalty” right onto their foreheads!
Tang Ke stood rigid in place, watching this bunch of embarrassing family heads, yet he didn’t know what to do, just staring blankly at the beautiful young woman.
His gut told him that this wasn’t as straightforward as it seemed.
The waiters, who were shouted at, approached tremblingly with teacups. They were surprised to see Bai Chuwei and Liu Jingyuan, but did not dwell on it and hurriedly brought the tea to the young man:
“Young Master Rong, please enjoy the tea.”
The young man’s face darkened immediately, as he said angrily, “Since when does Wumingju hire waiters with no discernment? You’re serving me tea? Am I worthy of the first cup of tea?”
The female waiter was almost scared to tears by the man’s outburst, but Bai Chuwei gave a sideways glance and said, “Little Rong, why so fierce?”
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately changed his expression and smiled kindly at the waitress, speaking in a gentle tone, “Just serve tea to that miss will be fine.”
Tang Ke: “…”
Shit, even Sichuan opera face-changing isn’t as fast as you! Shameless lackey.
