Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Upon hearing Zhao Mings request for him to seek mercy from Shao Yunduan, Shao Liulang was taken aback. He couldnt comprehend why he should approach Shao Yunduan and what exactly was going on.
Zhao Ming found herself at a loss for words. She couldnt simply reveal her brothers actions, which had caused so much harm and humiliation to others, and had no direct connection to the Shao Familys initial involvement.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan had their reasons for handling the situation this way. If they personally confronted the Zhao Family, it would only bring Yang Xiaonis incident to the forefront again, which would be inappropriate and unjustifiable.
Zhao Ming stammered, trying to explain, Its just my father and my Second
Brother, they unintentionally did something that offended Provincial
Champion Shao
Shao Liulang, who had never been fond of Shao Yunduan and was looking for an excuse to confront him, saw this as an opportunity. Moreover, it was Zhao Ming who had asked for his help, and he felt compelled to uplift her spirits.
Before Zhao Ming could finish her sentence, Shao Liulang became incensed and responded with righteous anger, How dare they! Cousin is a respected man, but he shouldnt act so recklessly! Dont worry, Elder Miss Zhao, I will seek justice on your behalf!
Wait, let me go and talk to the head of our family right away!
Hold on!
Without waiting for Zhao Ming to say anything further, Shao Liulang swiftly dashed off.
At the main residence of the family, Shao Yunduan had resumed his studies after taking a few days rest. Qiao Xuan was playing with her newborn nephew alongside Shao Qing. It was during this moment that Shao Liulang burst in, surprising everyone in the room.
They exchanged glances, sensing that something was amiss.
Whats happening now? inquired Ms. Fang.
Shao Liulang sneered, his voice dripping with sarcasm. Honestly, Elder Aunt, although our cousin is recommended for a position, he still has a long way to go before he reaches a high-ranking government office. Whats the point of being so arrogant? I suggest you maintain a low profile and stay grounded!
Everyone present.
Honestly, Liulang, what on earth are you talking about? Be clear and straightforward!
Shao Liulang, convinced that they were pretending, began to disclose the involvement of the Zhao Family.
At that moment, the atmosphere in the room changed. Yang Xiaoni lowered her head, her expression filled with embarra.s.sment.
Qiao Xuan quickly found an excuse to dismiss Yang Xiaoni from the scene, sensing the need to protect her from further discomfort.
Shao Liulang remained oblivious to the situation, but observing the unusual behavior of the first section of the family, he became even more self-a.s.sured. He spoke with a self-righteous tone, imparting moral lessons and admonis.h.i.+ng them for their alleged bullying, simply because Shao Yunduan had achieved the Recommended Man
Shao Sanlang could no longer contain his anger. He impulsively lunged forward and delivered a forceful punch to Shao Liulangs face, causing him to stumble backward and accuse him of being a traitor.
Ms. Fang was taken aback by the sudden outburst. Concerned that Shao Sanlang might inflict serious harm, she and others swiftly intervened to restrain him.
Shao Yunduan stepped in to a.s.sist, his expression grave. He firmly pulled Shao Liulang away, demanding an explanation. What had driven him to defend the Zhao Family? Even if he held disdain for the first section of the family, he should still possess a sense of integrity!
Shao Liulangs fury persisted as he continued to lecture Shao Yunduan, expressing his discontent.
Only then did Shao Yunduan realize that perhaps Shao Liulang had no knowledge of the actual situation. He probed further with additional questions, but the answers only deepened his confusion. Nothing seemed to align.
Shao Yunduan was rendered speechless. How could he, someone living in the village, be oblivious to the actions of the Zhao Family? It was as if he were a recluse.
For a brief moment, Shao Yunduan was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond.
However, as he realized that Shao Liulang was interrogating him without any knowledge of the situation, a sense of relief washed over him..
