2005 Chapter 2005: The ‘truth’of the matter
Second Elder Zhao’s heart tightened when he smelled the stench of blood. He could not care less about his manners and rushed into the room. When he saw the scene in front of him, he nearly fainted.
“Resolve! Resolve!”
Second Elder Zhao threw himself in front of the bed and called out repeatedly. He fed him pills and injected his spiritual energy. Unfortunately, Zhao Lizhi was already dead. No matter how much he tried, it would be in vain.
Luo Pingsheng’s head buzzed. How could this be? How could Zhao Lizhi be in Yan ‘Er’s room? Why did Yan ‘er want to kill him? Could it be that he wanted to molest Yan ‘er?
Second elder Zhao grabbed Luo Yan’s neck. “B * Tch! Why did you kill Lizhi? Speak!”
Luo Pingsheng rushed forward. “Second elder Zhao, calm down! Calm down! Even if you want to kill Yan ‘er, you have to let her speak!”
Second Elder Zhao then let go of Luo Yan’s neck and said viciously, “Tell me, why did you kill Lizhi?”
Luo Yan coughed for a long time before she finally calmed down. She shouted hysterically, “I didn’t kill him, I didn’t kill him! When I woke up, I found him dead here.”
Second elder Zhao slapped Luo Yan hard, “Bullsh * t! He died on your bed. If you didn’t kill him, who did? ! Lizhi must have taken a fancy to you. How dare you kill him, you B * Tch!”
Although Luo Pingsheng was unhappy, he was afraid of the Zhao family, he carefully said, “Second elder Zhao, I’m afraid there’s something fishy about this. Let me ask in detail. If young master Lizhi was really killed by Yan ‘er, I’ll definitely kill her and give the Zhao family an explanation.”
“Humph! Lizhi is my eldest brother’s only son. Now that he’s dead in your Luo family, this matter won’t end!”Second Elder Zhao’s eyes were bloodshot as he said furiously.
Luo Pingsheng wiped off the cold sweat on his head and began to ask Luo Yan and the two handmaidens about what had happened. He also interrogated the guards who had seen Zhao Lizhi.
Everyone immediately pieced together the “Truth”of the matter: after Zhao Lizhi was drunk, his l.u.s.t flared up, so he ran over to force Luo Yan to commit adultery. In the end, he was killed by Luo Yan with the evil-warding sword at the bedside.
It was reasonable, regardless of whether it was the motive or the scene, it was completely consistent.
Even Luo Yan herself felt that she might have really killed Zhao Lizhi in her daze. It was just that she was too shocked, so she couldn’t remember.
“Luo Pingsheng, now that the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?”Second Elder Zhao thought of the things that he would face when he returned, and his head was as heavy as a mountain. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have brought his nephew here.
“Second elder Zhao, Sigh! Since things have come to this, there’s nothing more I can say! Yan ‘er will be handed over to the Zhao family to deal with. In addition, the Luo family is willing to compensate half of our a.s.sets to the Zhao family. We only hope that you can plead on our behalf in front of family head Zhao and let us off this time.”
Luo Pingsheng was clearly even more cold-blooded than Mo Xiaoting. Without any hesitation, he immediately abandoned Luo Yan.
Luo Yan was already in shock, but upon hearing Luo Pingsheng’s words, she immediately fainted.
Second Elder Zhao took a deep breath, “I can’t make the decision on this matter. I need to go back and ask my big brother for instructions. I also need to bring back the body that I’ve made up my mind to. I will return to Jianfeng City immediately. If you let Luo Yan escape in the meantime, I will bury the entire Luo family with you!”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely send someone to look after her. After all, this was an accident. Please deal with her when you return,”Luo Pingsheng said as he handed over a billion high-grade spirit stones to second elder Zhao.
