Captain Wang scolded his son and then said to his wife:
"Xiao Juan, I know you've had a hard time taking care of Tianlei and your father. But now, we need to reflect on how our son has turned out. We both share the blame.
You can see that if we let our son have his way today, not only could our family of three die, but we might also drag Elijah and the others down with us.
They kindly came to rescue us, only to be put in danger because of us. How do you feel about that? How do you think their families feel? When we get back, let's have Tianlei take the civil service exam and find a steady job at home."
Although Captain Wang's wife wanted to argue, given what had happened just now, she found herself unable to say anything.
"Tianlei, keep your schemes to yourself on the road! If you try anything crooked again, I won't mind knocking you out for the journey back!"
Once Captain Wang exerted his authority, neither his wife nor his son said another word.
