CHAPTER 965: CHAPTER 965: HE IS JUST AN UNFILIAL MOURNING SON

The man felt that Shi Kanshan was simply a disgrace.

He’s so cowardly, no wonder he can’t even handle his own daughter.

Despite his inner disdain, the man still had to step up and deal with this "mess."

He first gave Shi Kanshan a disdainful look, and then discontentedly said to Shi Yaoguang, "Didn’t you hear your father apologizing to you?"

Shi Yaoguang glanced at him sideways, without speaking.

The man became increasingly dissatisfied, "Usually, it’s the younger generation that apologizes to the older. Since when does a daughter like you take the high ground, insisting that your father lower himself to you?"

"Do you think acting this way gives you some sort of superiority?"

Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "No."

Then Shi Kanshan wasn’t even worth her feeling superior.

As for these parents, how should one put it...

She had already given them the chance they deserved.

Fearing they might abandon her due to factors beyond their control influenced by the plot, she purposely removed those factors.

Yet, even without any influences, they still chose to raise an adopted daughter.

One could only say their fate was shallow in this lifetime.

The man looked at Shi Yaoguang’s expression and directly felt she was cold-blooded.

"Parents, no matter what, always act for the good of their children. You behaving like this..."

He waved his sleeve with a few traces of condemnation in his expression, "You are simply insensible!"

Shi Yaoguang couldn’t be bothered to listen to this man ramble on.

Even watching someone perform monkey tricks could at least elicit a laugh.

This person was truly here to showcase his intelligence.

Unexpectedly, before she could speak up, Wei Lan beat her to it.

Wei Lan glared at him with an expression of disdain, "This is our family affair, what does it have to do with you? Why do you have to meddle?"

The man seemed to have heard something unbelievable, his eyes widened, "What did you say?"

This person was too insensible!

Wei Lan smirked coldly, "Everyone here knows the grudges of the Shi Family, and no one has said anything, yet you open your mouth?"

The man didn’t anticipate Wei Lan would suddenly attack, he was stunned for a moment before reacting, looking at her in disbelief, "Are you mistaken? I was helping you!"

"Helping me? Do I need your help?"

Wei Lan rolled her eyes, "No matter how stiff we get, it’s still our own business, what’s it to you? On what grounds are you babbling?"

The man turned pale, "You are so insensible! This world has too many cold-hearted people. I rarely act out of goodwill, and yet you are so ungrateful. Heh, I was being sentimental!"

Wei Lan: "It’s good that you know!"

With that, she seemed to think of something, saying disdainfully, "You say such good things, who knows what your relationship with your parents is like."

"You claim that parents at home don’t need to do anything to eat and drink what they want. I doubt it!"

The man’s face shifted, "I don’t know what you’re talking about!"

Wei Lan sneered, she originally spoke off the cuff, not truly believing the man treated his parents badly.

But seeing his reaction now, Wei Lan couldn’t help but suspect that his parents’ lives might not be well.

While Wei Lan was pondering, the man had already adjusted his expression, looking at them with "how can you be so unreasonable" eyes, "I just couldn’t bear to see your family fall apart, and this is your attitude towards me? I was a fool for trying to be a good person!"

Hearing this, Shi Yaoguang couldn’t help but laugh.

The man looked at her inexplicably, "What are you laughing at?"

"I’m laughing at how you decide to be a good person now."

The man deeply felt insulted, "What do you mean I decide to be a good person now? I’ve always been a good person!"

Shi Yaoguang nodded perfunctorily, "Indeed, you’ve always been a good person. Your attitude as a good person is to turn your parents into your money-making tools, letting them earn money for you even while resting."

The man’s complexion changed drastically, looking at Shi Yaoguang in disbelief, "How, how do you know?"

After he spoke, he quickly denied, "I didn’t do that, stop spouting nonsense!"

If the man seemed more natural in his attitude, perhaps everyone might have believed his words.

But the problem is...

His guilty demeanor is just too obvious.

One could tell immediately, he surely feels guilty.

Knowing he’s guilty, how could everyone not suspect more?

Wei Lan also looked at Shi Yaoguang with curious eyes, "Yaoguang, do you know something?"

Shi Yaoguang spread her hands, "I don’t know much."

The man let out a sigh of relief.

Before he could calm down, ready to strike back, he heard Shi Yaoguang say, "He was just absolutely heartless enough to break his biological parents’ limbs, bind them to boards, instructing them to go out begging daily, that’s all."

That barely counts as knowing little?

The crowd’s gaze at Shi Yaoguang was tinged with fear.

Of course, more of it was directed at that man.

Earlier, from the man’s attitude, they assumed he was truly a good person.

Now it seems, he was the worst.

Facing the eyes of the crowd condemning him, the man’s first reaction was to avoid.

But he also knew that evasion wouldn’t solve this problem.

Thinking.

He simply gave up on running away.

Anyway, about what he’s done, no one knows except him.

Shi Yaoguang might just be talking nonsense, as long as he doesn’t admit to it, Shi Yaoguang wouldn’t be able to convict him.

In contrast, her.

She doesn’t acknowledge her biological parents, everyone knows it now.

What everyone should do is collectively condemn Shi Yaoguang.

Unfortunately, the man’s idea was doomed never to come true.

No one’s a fool, naturally not following his nonsense.

Shi Yaoguang had just saved the children in the cabin.

No, not just those children.

Everyone present was saved by Shi Yaoguang.

If not for her, they would’ve ended up in the belly of a fish by now.

In this situation, never mind Shi Yaoguang’s actions weren’t excessive, even if she truly were, they couldn’t be blamed.

They, as beneficiaries, should never stand on high ground criticizing Shi Yaoguang.

Wei Lan was initially worried people might be incited by the man.

Seeing the crowd reasonably clear-headed, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness.

Shi Yaoguang looked at Wei Lan like this, her eyes narrowed.

Not sure what these two have gone through recently, this attitude...

Compared to the last meeting, it’s starkly different.

Though curious, she didn’t plan on delving deeper.

Just in time, the distress signal she sent had already summoned the nearby stationed navy.

The rescued people looked hopefully at the slowly arriving cruiser, each one showing the glint of having survived a disaster.

Except for that man who previously pointed jubilantly, his expression kept changing, showing no sign of joy.

Shi Yaoguang had been paying attention to his movements, and seeing him attempt to blend into the crowd, she promptly stepped forward, stopped him, and handed him over to the navy, "This is a fugitive, kindly take him back."
