His Rui Chapter 267 - Li Rui Will No Longer Remain Silent

Chapter 267 - Li Rui Will No Longer Remain Silent

Li Qiang's doubt-filled eyes instantly got cleared when Li Rui also agreed with Xi Ying's words.
His eyes looking at Li Na who was cowering in the corner were full of shock, anger, and disbelief.
However, Li Rong still believed her upbringing more.
In her eyes, even Li Rui was now against her daughters, Li Na. However, when she saw her husband looking at Li Na with cold eyes, Li Rong's heart palpated in fear.
"Qiang, how can you believe anyone else over your daughter?"
Holding her husband's arms, said Li Rong.
However, Li Qiang effortlessly freed his arm from his wife's hold and looked at her with the same cold and sharp eyes as he said
"Why would Rui lie to us? She also belongs to our clan. I believe her. And somehow, after seeing her true colors today, how can I not believe Rui?"
Li Rong looked at her husband with parted mouth and eyes full of shock. She then turned around and looked at Li Rui with wide eyes and said in a loud voice.
"Rui, why are you also trying to slander your own sisters? They have never snatched anything from you, never had done anything to harm you. I agree whatever Li Na and I did was very wrong. Aunt really understands it very well if you are feeling angry. But you can't just vent your anger like this. Your uncle believes you very much, Rui. He will disown your sisters from the clan or do something else in his anger…please don't do this to your sisters…"
In her panic and fear for her daughters, Li Rong said many things and was about to say more but Li Rui's cold and mocking voice interrupted her.
"Sisters…"
Li Rui chuckled coldly as she looked at Li Na who was cowered the corner. Coincidentally, Li Na raised her head at the same time and her eyes met Li Rui's cold ones.
However, she didn't seem to be scared at all. Instead, she looked back at Li Rui with hatred-filled eyes.
Li Qiang whose eyes were fixed on his daughter, of course, saw her eyes and shook his head in disbelief as he said to his wife.
"Look at her, Li Rong … look at your daughter. Look at how she is looking at her own sister as if she wishes to tear her down. How did my daughter become like this?"
Yi Jie was also looking at Li Na with cold eyes and she also noticed her hatred-filled eyes at her own daughter. Hot tears fell out of her eyes.
In their clan, every child has been raised like their own child. It didn't matter which household he belonged to. As long as he or she was the child of the Li Clan, he was treated with love and care.
Seeing so much hatred between two children of their clan who they have raised, it was heartbreaking for everyone…for especially Yi Jie who has never discriminated against anyone like Li Rong.
Li Rong stood still not knowing what she should say or do to save her daughters from their upcoming future.
Her only hope was Li Rui. If Li Rui refused her husband's words only then her daughters could be saved. However, when Li Rong looked at Li Rui with pleading eyes, she saw how she was looking at her Li Na emotionlessly.
Li Rui turned her head and surely noticed her hopeful eyes but glanced away indifferently as she said
"Rui has only one sister and one brother, First Uncle…Fourth Younger Sister, Li Sying, and Elder Brother Li Diu. Any kind of relationship with Li Na and Li Caihong has already ended the day I have found out how they drugged me and even sent a man to defile me."
Li Rui could feel a pair of eyes fixed on herself and knew who it was but she never looked in that direction.
Although she has loved Li Chen very much like her younger brother since childhood, he had also hurt her very much with her bitter words and deeds.
The only best thing she could do for him was to hide the matter where he had stolen the book from her father's study.
Other than that, Li Chen should not expect anything else from her.
Looking at Li Rong, Li Rui continued in her cold voice.
"Rui has been very tolerant of Li Na and Li Caihong since childhood, First Aunt. Aunt might not remember but it was Li Caihong only who, fourteen years ago, had said in front of everyone in the Imperial Palace that I liked Princess Wenling's hairpin and very cleverly implied that I have asked Li Zhan to steal it. However, I never did any such thing. It was Li Caihong's words that truly affected everything because she was my own so-called sister."
Li Rong's face went pale.
She, of course, knew about this matter because as soon as they had reached Li Manor back she had asked her daughter whether it was really true.
Having a child who could do such a thing in Manor was a very dangerous thing. However, the young Li Caihong had shaken her head and told her firmly
"No, mother…she never said this to me. I just want her to die. If she dies then my sister will become the Elder Miss of Li Manor."
Such poisonous words from her younger daughter's mouth had shocked Li Rong at that time. But she had just let it go after scolding her daughter a little.
After that she had also found Li Na and asked her who was filling Li Caihong's mind with such things, however, her elder daughter had comforted her by saying that it must be Li Caihong's friends who had filled her mind and she would talk to Li Caihong about it.
After that, she also didn't see Li Caihong act like that again and hence that matter ended there.
But still, Li Rong now knew that she didn't really have anything to refute Li Rui's words. After all, she knew that her words were true.
However, by being silent, Li Rong could not make her daughter escape her wrongs.
Because Li Rui was no longer continued to remain silent.
