Second Old Madam Li leaned against the bed and cried miserably. The usual timid expression on her face was gone, and there was already a hint of viciousness in her eyes. However, her cries made people feel sad. “Old Master, your arrangements have always been foolproof. How could there be a mistake?
“I don’t believe that it was a coincidence either. How could there be a coincidence under your arrangements? It wasn’t a coincidence. Someone deliberately wanted to kill our Chuhai.
“Old Master, you must investigate this thoroughly. You can’t let Chuhai die for no reason. Did you ask Eldest Young Master for help? That day, Eldest Young Master suddenly left after returning home. Did Eldest Young Master know that something had happened to his younger brother?”
At this moment, Old Master Li’s expression darkened. His eldest son came back that day? Why didn’t he know about it? Why didn’t the servants at home mention it to him?
Second Old Madam Li, who was crying sadly on the bed, did not seem to notice the change in the Old Master’s expression. She said miserably, “You’re not in good health now. Let Eldest Young Master investigate. His younger brother was killed. How can he bear this? Old Master, if it’s inconvenient for you to step in, let Eldest Young Master do it…”
Old Master Li’s expression darkened. The dark clouds had already gathered above his head. He lowered his head and asked Second Old Madam Li, who was lying beside him, “When did my eldest son come back that day? Why didn’t I know?”
The person standing in the shadows looked at Old Master Li and then at Second Old Madam Li. He moved his lips slightly before swallowing the words in his mouth.
The son that the old master doted on the most was killed by the military. Those who were familiar with the old master’s temper knew that this matter wouldn’t end so easily. If someone was really responsible for Li Chuhai’s death, it was better to let the old master’s eldest son be responsible.
They were both his sons. It was a tough call. Even if he took his anger out on them, it would only be for a while. Nothing big would happen.
Facing Old Master Li’s questioning, Second Old Madam Li seemed to be shocked. She hunched her shoulders and looked up from her arms. Her neatly combed hair was in a mess, and she looked even more haggard. She didn’t seem to understand anything. “This is Eldest Young Master’s house. Isn’t it normal for Eldest Young Master to come back? I don’t usually tell you when Eldest Young Master comes back.”
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and wiped her tears. Her hands, which were no longer young and supple, were slowly clenched until her fingernails turned white.
Old Master’s arrangements had always been foolproof. Chuhai had already escaped from the capital city. How could he die on the freighter?
When he found out that something had happened to Chuhai at night, the young master who had never taken his stepmother seriously came back in a hurry and left soon after that. Ha, it had not been a day or two since he wanted to kill Chuhai. How could he have let go of that opportunity?
If he killed Chuhai, she would let him pay with his life!
No!
She wanted his family to pay with their lives. None of them could escape!
She was able to climb into her brother-in-law’s bed and force her sister, who was indebted to her, to death bit by bit. How could Second Old Madam Li be as timid as she looked?
When she was young, Second Old Madam Li Li was naked on the streets. She couldn’t even have a full meal. It was Old Madam Li, who was still unmarried back then, who kindly begged her family to take in Second Old Madam Li. The two ladies, who were not related by blood at all, even addressed each other as sisters. The beggar, Second Old Madam Li, instantly became the daughter of a wealthy family.
