Chapter 469: Apologize (3)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Liu Bowen was trembling.
Cold sweat broke out on the servant’s forehead.
“Chief Hei, please accept our apology.” However, his voice was still calm as he bowed to Hei Gang.
“First Young Master originally wanted to apologize to the two of you the day before yesterday. It was only because he had to deal with the culprit that he got delayed.”
“Today, the culprit, Lin Lanhua, has been dealt with. Please accept his apology.”
Hei Gang was stunned.
He looked at Liu Bowen in surprise.
He didn’t seem to believe that this coward could actually kill people.
As for the fact that the main culprit was Lin Lanhua, he was a little surprised, but he believed it.
With such a coward, it would be strange for him to dare to cause trouble at Liu’s Express if he knew the stop was under their protection.
After being deceived, it was possible to act rashly.
He had seen Lin Lanhua before.
At that time, he had even personally brought her to the Liu residence. That woman was not a good person.
Li Xiao didn’t look surprised at all.
The servant’s face tensed up.
“Did you really kill him?” Hei Gang suddenly became interested and asked Liu Bowen.
Liu Bowen’s expression changed, and he did not dare to admit it.
At this moment, he felt resentful.
Murder was a serious crime. Although his family owned Lin Lanhua, what if the news was leaked and his father found out?
But at the moment, he had to admit it.
If he didn’t admit it, then how would he explain why he came late?
“Y-yes, I did it.” Liu Bowen stammered.
“T-that b.i.t.c.h tricked me into doing something stupid. She should die.”
Hei Gang frowned when he heard this, and the way he looked at Liu Bowen became rather annoyed.
With this kind of courage, he still came to apologize to them?
Or was this person a stutterer?
Li Xiao also frowned.
“You did that to your woman?” Then, he asked.
The moment he said that, the surrounding people were stunned.
Firstly, how did he know that they were involved?
Secondly, Liu Bowen killed his lover as an act of apology. Was his priority right?
When Liu Bowen and the servant heard this, their scalps went numb.
Because they never thought that Li Xiao would know such a secret.
Moreover, judging from Master Li’s reaction just now, he probably already knew that Lin Lanhua was killed by Liu Bowen.
That was terrifying.
In such a short period of time, he had actually found out such a big secret…
The sweat beads on the servant’s forehead became even bigger.
As expected, his previous guess was right.
The background of Master Li was probably even more terrifying than that of Master Hei.
“Pfft-” Before Liu Bowen could reply, Hei Gang burst out laughing.
“What? Isn’t Lin Lanhua your old man’s concubine?” So, both father and son had had this woman?
He happened to know about Lin Lanhua marrying Old Master Liu.
That was because Lin Xiaoyue had asked him for help when dealing with Lin Lanhua.
In the end, he chose the old man from the Liu family who was beyond cure.
Liu Bowen’s face turned pale. He was afraid and a little embarra.s.sed.
He never expected that the scandal would be exposed.
Li Xiao glanced at Hei Gang, unable to understand his evil intentions.
“Give me 1,000 of silver as compensation and I’ll let this matter go.”
The Nangong Army slowly returned, and they needed a lot of money.
If he relied on his wife to earn money, his wife would be under a lot of pressure. He had to think of a way to share the burden.
Before Liu Bowen could reply, Hei Gang’s eyes widened.
1,000 taels? How bold.
Li Xiao ignored Hei Gang and continued to look at Liu Bowen.
“In addition, in the future, let us handle your goods,” Li Xiao added.
The servant’s face lit up and he quickly reached out to touch Liu Bowen.
Master Li was giving them a chance to be on good terms with him.
Only then did Liu Bowen come back to his senses.
“Alright, thank you, Master Li! Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to send them over.” He cupped his hands and thanked Li Xiao.
1,000 taels of silver was indeed not a small amount. However, it was worth it to resolve this matter and build a relationship with Master Li and Master Hei. It was not a big deal.
Seeing Liu Bowen’s reaction, Li Xiao frowned again.
Then, he stopped looking at Liu Bowen and turned to look at Liu Bowen’s servant.
“Lin Lanhua is dead. Her brother in the Qingyun Academy might not let this matter rest. Do you know how to handle this matter?” He said in a deep voice.
Lin Yuanshan and Lin Lanhua were not good people..
