Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 330

Chapter 330: Rebels!

Marshal Wu, "..." He said to Lian, "Who are you calling old man?"

Mei replied, "The old man."

AN: I wonder who taught the twins to say that. Its do as I say not as I do.

Marshal Wu, "..." Rebels! These kids were now rebelling against this old man for a useless prince. "Apologize for disrespecting your grandpa," he demanded.

Lian said, "Grandpa, but I said nothing wrong."

Mei chimed in, "Yeah, you are old. Grandpa, you are a hundred and nineteen years old."

Marshal Wu yelled, "You..." but the scolding words were swallowed back. He didn’t want Xiang Yu to witness such a scene. His family business would be a joke in Xiang Yu’s eyes.

Xiang Yu couldn’t tolerate the disrespect, especially when he had to rely on the Marshal to take care of the twins in this world. "Apologize to your grandpa," he said to the two.

Lian and Mei instantly wilted and simultaneously said, "Sorry, Grandpa, we didn’t mean it."

Now Marshal Wu was in full panic mode, though his expression feigned calmness. The twins were like any other children. They weren’t perfect, and when they did something wrong, they would protest but eventually accept punishment and rarely repeated the same mistakes.

Now he had just told them to apologize, but they refused. Yet at Xiang Yu’s command, they instantly wilted and apologized. He couldn’t help but wonder what sort of poison Xiang Yu had fed his grandkids. This was unacceptable.

Xiang Yu took the overfilled glass, some of the liquor spilling over. "Marshal, don’t take the words of children too seriously. They are still learning," Xiang Yu said.

Marshal Wu retorted internally, "Aren’t you the same age?" The Marshal couldn’t help but feel like Xiang Yu was like a father trying to speak up for his kids after they did wrong. The Marshal gritted his teeth. He was their grandfather, yet he felt like an outsider.

Xiang Yu raised his glass and toasted the Marshal before downing the overfilled glass of liquor. He couldn’t even appreciate the taste as he accepted the punishment. The Marshal, who had only taken a sip, froze as he watched the prince guzzle down a full glass like it was water.

He was both impressed and upset that such a bottle was wasted on someone who couldn’t even appreciate the taste. The former marshal took another sip just as Xiang Yu set the glass down. Marshal Wu watched for any signs of intoxication, but Xiang Yu appeared normal.

"Are you okay?" Lian asked.

"Do you feel any discomfort?" Mei added.
