Behind Your Mask Is A Beautiful Smile 118 Right Here. Right Now.

His unexpected appearance surprised Ya Nuo and Huan Hei. It took them several seconds to a.s.similate what just happened. The elderly man had dark circles under his eyes and looked as if he hadn't slept for ages compared to the last time they've seen him. His right hand was holding onto a curvy golden dragon head that had its black metallic scaled body circled around the platinum cane. This eye catching ancestral Yang family cane was used to punish members who committed something unruly and unforgivable. Facing the awkward silence, Grandpa Hoon cleared his throat.

"What? You haven't seen your grandpa for only this long and already forgot about his existence?" The air that left his lungs came out as a relieved sigh as he observed their stunned reaction. 'It seems like I didn't miss their ceremony. It's not too late.'

Quickly, Ya Nuo circled her arm around Grandpa Hoon's and whispered in the sweetest voice, "Of course not! I was wondering what grandpa's secret is in getting more and more handsome every time I see you! But I notice that you have a bit of dark eye circles and that your complexion isn't too good. Is everything alright? You're also holding a cane."

Grandpa Hoon relaxed his tensed muscles and pinched her nose gently, "Silly, Grandpa is alright. I'm still young and healthy! Don't worry, with me here; everything will be alright. Even if the sky collapses, you'll have me here lifting it up for you. This cane is an accessory I brought just in case I needed to knock some sense into someone. I arrived not too long ago, I'm not too late for your ceremony right??"

She rubbed her head against his arms, "Nope~ We were just getting started. Huan Hei was announcing his upcoming projects with daddy and then you came up the stage."

"Talking about that, it reminds me of some unfinished business that I have to deal with." Grandpa Hoon's expression turned solemn and his body faced the clown who was sitting at the corner of the stage with his hands covering the dragon scale patterned bruise on his right cheek. The clown is none other than Qiu Rei. His right cheek was beaten black and blue colored, and tears filled his frightful eyes.

"F..Father..d..didn't you say you weren't coming?" He stuttered as his weakened knees failed to support him up.He fell back down instantly and landed on his b.u.t.t cheeks again. His body quivered in fear, and his body temperature dropped dramatically. His eyes never met Grandpa Hoon's. Instead, he focused his entire attention on the dragon head cane that is in front of him. The dragon's eyes were pure black that it felt like it could see through one's inner weakness.

"So basically, you're saying that because I told you that I wasn't going to show up at Ya Nuo and Huan Hei's engagement party, it gives you the right to cause a ruckus? I'm here tonight with only one ident.i.ty, and that is Ya Nuo's grandfather. So whoever dares to crash this party must get through me first. Understand?"

"Y..Yes...I understand" Qiu Rei didn't dare delay his responses and quickly replied, hoping that his words could soothe his father's fury.

"Everything that you've said up until this point had been recorded. I will personally strip you from your CEO position at Yang Corporation once the party is over. All your personal a.s.sets will be frozen, and you are not allowed to transfer or make any financial transactions using Yang family's money. The position will be handed back to Ku Ze." Grandpa Hoon clearly stated his final decisions out loud for everyone to hear.

"Father! That's too much! I..I will do better. I'm sorry! I won't do anything to harm Ya Nuo anymore. Please don't take my CEO position away from me. Mother wouldn't want to see that either. If she learns about this, she won't be able to take it!" Qiu Rei crawled to Grandpa Hoon and begged for a second chance.

"You still remember that you have a mother huh? Then what were you thinking when you took Ya Nuo away and locked her up for all these years?! Your grandma fell sick because she missed her grandchild dearly. Do you know how difficult it was for her over these years?! She thought that it was all her fault that Ya Nuo went missing. How dare you mention your own mother when you never considered your wrong doings until I threatened to strip away your CEO position? Is money all you could think of in that home wrecked brain of yours?" His tone intensified as he mentioned his loving wife who could not make it to the party.

"Father.. I was only-"

"Don't use the same old repet.i.tive excuse that your wife and child died and thats why you did all these inhumane acts. Even if you're not tired of it, I am. Quit acting like a child and grow up. Your wife and child's death have nothing to do with your brother, sister in law, or Ya Nuo. Your excuse is another way of slapping yourself in the face. Even if your cheeks don't burn and mouth doesn't reek from talking about your sinful behaviors, I feel ashamed for knowing someone like you. And what's worse than that? I am your father."

Qiu Rei continued to object Grandpa Hoon's decision and disregarded everyone's presence. Profoundly disappointed, he repeated thrice for Qiu Rei to let go of his legs. Qiu Rei refused to loosen his grip, and Grandpa Hoon has had enough.

Swoosh

Once again, the dragon cane struck Qiu Rei. This time, on his chest. He covered his chest almost immediately as he fell backwards and groaned in tormented pain. "Argh...ughhh..."

"Originally, I only wanted to stop by and witness my granddaughter's special night with her future husband. I didn't want to make a scene, but you left me with no choice. Now that I've hit you twice, I don't need to hold myself back. I was planning on dealing with you after the engagement ceremony, but since you want to play this way, I'll follow your lead. I'll deal with you right here. Right now!"
