Chapter 298: Origins of Ruthlessness
“Such a shameless woman, she’s really a woman who has zero sense of shame!”
Xiao Quanren declared with grief and resentment, as such a scandal of younger brother committing adultery with his sister-in-law actually happened in the Xiao clan. If this had happened in ancient times, they would be dipped into the river in a pig cage for punishment, it was way too shameful.
Everyone looked at An Yuan with an enormous and deep sense of disgust, as not only this woman was vicious, she also committed adultery with his husband’s brother, which was nearly unbearable.
Against everyone’s eyes and Xiao Quanren’s rebuke, An Yuan looked panicked. When she saw the same questioning expression coming from her husband’s face, she became flustered, a complete state of panic. Then, she pointed at Xiao Chaolai and scolded loudly, “Chaolai, are you nuts, who had a relationship with you, you…you better stop spitting nonsense!”
Although her voice was loud, everyone could tell that she was feeling guilty and scared.
Xiao Chaolai calmed down and realized that he had spilled out the biggest taboo in his life, now the entire Luo Village would probably look down on him. He intended to explain but Xiao Luo’s demonic voice came about at that moment.
“She said you’re spiting nonsense, aren’t you going to rebut that?” Every word he said was extremely chilly.
Xiao Chaolai shivered as he understood what Xiao Luo wanted him to do, to prove that everything was real and sensible. He was setting him and An Yuan up to be utterly discredited, which was really ruthless.
“Say it, I’ll let you go if you say it.” Xiao Luo smiled at him eerily suddenly.
Xiao Chaolai lifted his head and looked into his eyes, his pupils enlarged and his consciousness was gone for a moment. Xiao Luo had hypnotized him and made him spoke subconsciously, “She bought my pillowcase and had sewn the character ‘Lai’ at the front and ‘Feng’ at the back. ‘Lai’ represents me and ‘Feng’ represents her.”
Chen Xifeng, this was An Yuan’s real name!
Everyone frowned upon hearing that and that was way too shameless and disgusting. She was way past her fifties and yet still hooking up with another man, who was her very husband’s younger brother, this had shamed the entire Luo Village altogether.
An Yuan looked pale like a pile of ash and her dark face was almost crying, she knew that she could never raise her head up high anymore in Luo Village since such scandal was exposed.
“Bitch!!!”
Xiao Chaofa was infuriated and bellowed with his coarse voice. He resembled an extremely angry ox, his eyes were fully bloodshot and finally under the rage, he vomited a huge gush of blood and collapsed.
“What an interesting story you’ve told us!”
Xiao Luo smiled mirthlessly as he wanted to break a leg of Xiao Chaolai, but he quickly realized that it was more painful for Xiao Chaolai to be exposed of his adultery act with his sister-in-law than breaking merely a leg.
Although everyone was shocked by Xiao Luo’s ruthlessness, they all were cheering for him in their minds. Xiao Chaofa and his brothers finally got the taste of justice this time as not only they were taught a lesson mercilessly, their scandalous act was even made known publicly. Certainly, what comes around goes around, it was just not a criminal’s time yet if he has not reaped what he sowed.
The blood on Xiao Qiudong’s face has dried up and blood has stop flowing out from his gum. He stared blankly at Xiao Chaofa and his brothers on the ground, who were still moaning from Xiao Luo’s beating. He felt nothing but chills coming down from the top of his head and that made his entire body felt cold.
Out of a sudden, a giant hand appeared in his vision and grabbed his collar abruptly.
He tried to focus but only met against Xiao Luo’s slightly ferocious yet handsome face.
“Xiao Qiudong, I’ve tolerated you for a very long time, every time I’d remind myself that you and I are childhood friends, but you are always trying my limit every single time. Do you think that I deserved to be bullied by you? I’m sorry, this might give you a sense of accomplishment, but I am very unhappy, pretty unhappy!”
Xiao Luo grabbed Xiao Qiudong’s collar and swung him up in the air mercilessly, then threw him towards the wall of Seekong Altar like a gunny sack.
“Bump…Crack…”
With a deep percussion and a bone-cracking sound, excruciating pain came through his legs to his brain and Xiao Qiudong screamed with his face painted full of fear. His screams were so piercing that resembled ghost cries and wolf howls, while his body was struggling violently.
It was hard to provoke Xiao Luo usually but if he was, there ought to be pain and blood to quell his anger. He really did not want to care about Xiao Qiudong, but ignoring him had led him to be looked down and thrashed upon, which was intolerable to him.
Everyone felt nothing but fear as they have finally witnessed both the angelic and demonic sides of Xiao Luo. He was such a perfect combination of angel and demon, but at this moment, the most ferocious and demonic side of him has manifested.
“Xiao Luo, you’ve done enough.”
Although Xiao Qiudong was at complete fault, Xiao Dizhang as the secretary could not let Xiao Luo beat Xiao Qiudong to death in his presence.
“Uncle Dizhang, I know when to stop.”
Xiao Luo smiled at him and continued approaching Xiao Qiudong.
“Oomph~”
A noisy motor sound could be heard approaching from afar, it was a trishaw that raced through the road towards here.
“It’s Zhiyuan!”
“Zhiyuan’s finally here, Xiao Luo would have beat Xiao Qiudong to death if he’s still not reaching.”
“Who informed Zhiyuan, it’s such a brilliant choice.”
Everyone sighed out of relief, so was Ji Siying. Nobody but Xiao Luo’s parents could probably stop Xiao Luo.
The trishaw stopped at the public grain sunning area, Xiao Zhiyuan and Hua Heying came down from the trishaw. They ran towards Seekong Altar quickly and looked slightly confused upon seeing Xiao Chaofa and his brothers on the ground.
“Xiao Luo, Xiao Chaofa and his gang were going to mess with you, are you injured?” Xiao Zhiyuan asked caringly.
Hua Heying just checked on Xiao Luo’s body thoroughly to see if he has sustained any injury, “Son, are you wounded? If those jerks had hurt you, your dad and I would seek justice to the end even if we would be jailed.”
Xiao Luo shook his head and smiled, “Mom, dad, I’m fine!”
Everyone was speechless as Xiao Zhiyuan had a machete on his waist and a rifle in his hand, he did not come to stop the fight but end the war with more violence.
Xiao Dizhang had no choice but approached them and sighed, “Zhiyuan, I had asked you to come to stop the fight, why did you bring a rifle? What do you want to do?”
Xiao Zhiyuan then realized he had a rifle in his hand, then tried to hide in behind him and explained, “Secretary, there’re many wild boars at night and this is for self-defense.”
“For god’s sake, Xiao Chaofa and his brothers think that they could bully my son just because they had more people, we brought this to hunt them like how we hunt wild boars.” He Huaying answered firmly, Xiao Luo was her dearest darling and she would risk her life fighting against anyone who could have threatened his life.
Everyone there felt shocked and thought, “Well maybe Xiao Luo’s ruthlessness was not nurtured but inherited from the two of you.”
