1877: Son, Someone Wants to Assault Me!

Son, Someone Wants to Assault Me!

"Either you sort out the garbage, or I call the police. It's your choice."2

At that moment, Li Hang fully exerted himself as someone with authority. The middle-aged woman looked at Li Hang with some trepidation.

"This man's trying to assault me!"

Just as the middle-aged woman cowered in fear, she saw her son walking over, carrying a briefcase. As soon as the man got closer, he saw that it was his mother calling for him. He was not stupid and knew very well what his mother looked like. Unless a man was out of his mind, he would not be as crazy as to assault her as she said.

"What's happening?"

Li Hang calmly folded his hands behind him.

Instead of answering the man's question, he asked instead, "Which unit are you from?"

Li Hang was full of undeniable authority. The man honestly told him what he wanted to know.

The middle-aged woman was fearless in her ignorance. She tugged on her son, who was her pride and joy. She could not understand why he was so obedient to this man's demand.

"Son!"

"Peace starts at home and the individual level. You are an Associate Professor at a university, and you can't even control your mother. It is clear that your position as an Associate Professor was not obtained by credible means!"

Li Hang was charging him with a lofty crime.

The man cautiously stole a glance from the corner of his eye at this man acting with extraordinary authority.

After some careful scrutinization, his legs suddenly gave out under him as he fell to the ground.

He...

He...

He was none other than Li Hang.

They were ruined!

How could he ever imagine that his ignorant mother would offend this great man of Empire?

"Yes, Mr. Li, I'll certainly deal with my mother at home."

Li Hang nodded with satisfaction; this guy at least knew how things work.

However, was he just an inept Associate Professor, or did he obtain his position by nepotism? This was something that he had to think about later.

"Okay, then you two should sort your garbage properly. As an educator, you should lead by example."

Li Hang said this while keenly aware of his hypocrisy.

After Li Hang left the scene, the man grabbed his mother and said, "Mom, you know who to make trouble for me. Do you know who that was just now?"

The middle-aged woman was confused. She asked her son, "Who was that?"

"That was Li Hang."

As soon as the man mentioned the name, the middle-aged woman realized that she heard the name before as well. "Why did he reproach me about throwing garbage?"

"These big officials like to make private visits in disguise."

The man made a note to himself that he had to inform his father-in-law in case he was questioned. It would be bad for his father-in-law to be implicated.

The man regretted everything.

If he knew his mother would offend someone like Li Hang, he would have never allowed his mother to come and take care of his pregnant wife.

Who knew if he would lose his job over this fiasco?

"Son, what about your job?"

The man shook his head. Of course, he was a little unqualified to be an Associate Professor.

He happened to have a good father-in-law who gave him a hand.

Even his pregnant wife was a little reluctant for his mother to come to take care of her.

Who could have known that his mother also managed to offend such a powerful man?

It seemed that their good days were finally coming to an end!

Li Hang went to the office and was busy until five o'clock when he got off work.

After getting off work, he went to the supermarket and bought some pre-cut vegetables that were ready to cook.

He thought that this would help him in his endeavor.

Li Hang followed the directions in the recipe, sauteeing and cooking as directed. Unfortunately, it was clear that he was not natural chef material.

Everything he made looked and tasted dubious and doubtful at best.
