Chapter 1274: A Lifetime of Pain II
As such, they just let him live to carry the guilt for the rest of his life. Let him carry the pain of being abandoned by his wife and child as well as being betrayed by everyone and all his relatives leaving him!
***
In Tian Shen Manor, everything was silent and peaceful.
Especially in the Luo family, it was quiet and felt different from the usual.
The current master of the Luo family had his arm circled around a beautiful concubine as he drank and talked happily with other people.
He did not know of the Qin family’s destruction and was only feeling happy being promoted to the Luo family’s master.
Just at this moment…
Thud!
The door of the Luo family was kicked open. The sound was very loud, scaring Luo Xiang so much that the wine cup in his hand had almost dropped to the ground.
He was a little annoyed when he looked up. “Who is it that coming to seek death again—”
In the next moment, all the noise around quietened.
The wine cup in his hand instantly slipped to the floor and shattered into pieces.
Cold sweat was dripping from his forehead. Even his back was drenched. The beads of sweat stuck to his skin.
At the moment, he could not be bothered about anything else. He quickly pushed the beautiful concubine in his hand away and immediately stood up. He was clearly frightened.
“Mas… Master? How come you have returned?”
Standing at the door was, surprisingly, Luo Fei who had been rescued by Gu Shi.
It was also because Luo Fei had been rescued that Feng Ruqing did not protect Luo Li and had brought her back. The Luo family’s matters should naturally be solved by Luo Fei himself.
As such, when Luo Fei’s injuries had more or less recovered, he brought Luo Li and the old lady back to the Luo family.
Luo Li pursed her lips from the beginning to the end as the little fox cuddled in her arms. However, the gaze she used to look at Luo Xiang was full of anger.
“Why?” Luo Fei sneered. “Are you very disappointed that I did not die in the Qin family?”
More sweat started to pour down Luo Xiang’s forehead. He raised his hand to wipe off the sweat, but no matter how he wiped, he was unable to wipe his sweat away.
“And the rest of you!” Luo Fei glanced coldly at the group of Luo family’s people who were drinking and enjoying themselves in the hall. “Back then, I had treated all of you genuinely, but the moment something happened to me, all of you bullied my mother and my daughter, and have even beat up my daughter to such an extent!”
Whenever he saw the frightening scars on Luo Li’s arms, the anger in Luo Fei’s heart was sufficient to swallow these people whole.
All these were his Luo family’s people.
They were people he had nurtured single-handedly, people who existed to protect the Luo family.
Now, he was only just taken away by Qin Li, but they already felt that he had already met his end and had actually treated his Li’er like that!
He could not imagine if Maiden Feng had not return…
What would have awaited Li’er?
“Mas, Master… You have misunderstood. I… I was only…” Luo Xiang’s lips were trembling and his face was pale. However, he was still unable to say a single word in the end.
Misunderstood?
What did he misunderstand?
He had indeed chased out Luo Li and Old Madam. Similarly… the wounds on Luo Li were his doing.
Luo Fei was not a fool. He would not believe him without a doubt just because of a few words.
Wait!
Suddenly, Luo Xiang seemed to have thought of something as he suddenly raised his head and glared at Luo Fei.
Was he not taken away by the Qin family? Then, how did he manage to return…
“All of you are keen to know how my son is able to return?” the old lady saw through Luo Xiang’s thinking at a glance and she said slowly, “It is because Qin Li is already taken away by the manor master. The Qin family is no more. Qin Fei’er is also missing! All of you have tried to climb up to power by relying on the Qin family and have chased us, grandparent and grandchild, out of the house by force. Now, it seems like karma is biting back, retribution is here!”
She would never forget how she, an old lady who was so close to stepping into her grave, was chased out of the Luo family humiliatingly!
