Chapter 122 Cartilage Grass
Chapter 122 Cartilage Grass
When Randy saw the person coming, he could no longer control the grievance and fear on his face. He buried his face in his mother's arms and burst into tears, as if he had suffered a great injustice...
When Randy's father, Lan Qing, saw his daughter being bullied, he couldn't suppress his anger.
With a sullen face and scorching eyes, he questioned Li Ziru at the door, "Young Clan Master, your status has risen, and your standards have also risen. You no longer look down on our Adi, right?"
"If the Young Clan Leader has other ideas in mind and no longer likes our Adi, he can just say it directly. There's no need to humiliate and bully him like this! We in the Lan family are not spineless. As long as you speak up, we in the Lan family will never pester you!"
Li Ziru's resolute and stern expression relaxed slightly when he saw Lan Qing.
Putting Lan Di aside, Lan Qing, as an elder and the tribe's top beastmaster, performed impeccably in every aspect. He was a rare and respected beastmaster in the tribe, on the same level as Fei Qi, and was one of the elders of the Beastmaster Clan.
"Uncle Lan..."
Li Ziru opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
What could he say? That his daughter had neglected her duty, letting the fox run away and inflicting harm, causing a sharp decline in the fox population? She had even summoned his own Yas to seek revenge, only to have him killed. And then, to shift the blame, she framed Columbine, twisting the truth into a distorted account?
Even if I say that, can he believe it?
Even he, who was with Randy every day, did not realize her true character. And Lan Qing, who only saw Randy several times a day, could believe that his daughter, whom he always praised, was another person?
"Uncle Lan, you've watched me grow up since I was a child, and you know I'm not that kind of person..."
Li Ziru wanted to explain, but Landy's mother couldn't bear to hear it anymore. She pointed at him and asked, "If you're not that kind of person, why do you treat Adi like this?"
"She cried so hard for your father that her eyes were swollen, but what about you? You didn't even help her up when she fell! Li Ziru, what on earth do you want to do?"
"Aunt Lan..."
Li Ziru lost his mother when he was young. Ever since he got engaged to Lan Di, Aunt Lan has always treated him like her own son. At this moment, he was in great pain and didn't know how to face these two elders.
"Mom, don't blame Brother Ziru. He, he didn't mean it..."
Landy looked up, tears in her eyes, and tried to excuse Li Ziru.
Hearing that her daughter was still protecting Li Ziru, Randy's mother, Hu Sanniang, was furious. "He pushed you away for another woman, and you're still speaking for him!"
Just when Li Ziru pushed Landy away, Hu Sanniang was outside the yard.
She didn't rush in at the time, thinking there was some misunderstanding, so she wanted to wait and see and let the young couple solve the problem themselves.
But he remained unmoved until his daughter fell to the ground due to being frightened. This made Hu Sanniang completely unable to bear it anymore.
"Mom, it's not like that..."
"Uncle Lan, Aunt Lan, there are many things you don't know about. I..."
He hesitated to speak, and the words on the tip of his tongue could not come out.
"There are many things we don't know, so tell us! Tell us! This is a good opportunity for everyone to judge and see what reasons and justifications you, Li Ziru, have for treating your fiancée this way!"
Hu Sanniang looks weak, but she speaks very firmly and with such an aggressive aura that most people cannot withstand it.
The people outside the yard followed Lan Qing and Hu Sanniang in when they came in.
They nodded as they listened, and criticized Li Ziru's faults one by one.
"Young Patriarch, Miss Landy is your fiancée after all. No matter what the reason, you shouldn't treat her like this!"
"That's right, and you grew up together. Can't the relationship you've had for so many years be compared to that of an outsider?"
"Young Clan Leader, you should apologize to Elder Lan and Madam Hu. We are all family, and we can't make things unhappy because of outsiders."
"That's it."
……
Li Ziru's heart, which originally felt a little guilty, suddenly became hard again.
He had just established his prestige, but with Randy crying and Lan Qing and his wife making a scene, all his efforts that morning were gone...
"Shut up!" He clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on Randy, and asked, "Randy, aren't you going to explain?"
Randy suddenly raised his eyes, his face full of disbelief, "Brother Ziru, what do you want me to explain? You still don't believe me, right?"
Looking at the heartbroken Randy, Li Ziru almost believed her again.
However, he is no longer the Li Ziru of the past.
If it is true as Randy said, that everything Colum said was to frame her, then what about others?
Those tribesmen who followed her and Columbus out were injured, but they were not dead and could speak!
He had asked other people for confirmation, but the answers they got were almost the same as what Columbus said.
Is everyone trying to frame her?
He couldn't believe it. He didn't understand why his sister Adi, who had always been considerate, would become like this?
His eyes were full of disappointment, but he suddenly felt a complicated gaze from the crowd.
He looked over and saw the person he hadn't seen for a long time.
Her plain and calm face seemed out of place in this world. He recalled some of the things that had happened in the past, and his heart suddenly trembled. A hint of surprise and doubt appeared in his bright eyes.
Could it be that the misunderstandings that had occurred before were not what Randy had said? Had he been deceived?
When he looked over there again, the figure had disappeared.
Randy noticed his gaze and spotted the figure that quietly left. Jealousy in her heart became like a demon, almost swallowing up her sanity!
Could there be some hidden secret behind this? Lan Qing felt that something was amiss and spoke again.
"Li Ziru, if you want to say something, just say it clearly. Don't be so secretive and act so petty!"
It was a mess outside and the noise was annoying.
Shu He said to the anxious Fei Qi, "Brother Fei, if you trust me, then go out and help. There's no point in you staying here anyway."
Fei Qi hesitated. To be honest, he was still not completely confident in Shu He. He was afraid that something might go wrong if he didn't keep an eye on him.
Seeing this, Shu He laughed and said, "He's already like this. If I really want to harm him, there's no need to do anything, right? I can just watch him die."
Although Fei Qi also felt that what she said made sense, he was the clan leader after all, so how could he leave him alone with an outsider?
"Nothing. The young clan leader has grown up. This kind of thing should be handled by him alone. If he can't even handle this, it means his ability is still lacking."
Shu He knew that he was worried about them, so he didn't force it and just said, "Then go and close the door. It's too noisy, I can't even feel his pulse."
Fei Qi remained motionless, his face etched with embarrassment. In this critical moment, he couldn't take his eyes off the clan leader for even a second.
"You are really careful."
Shu He had no choice but to get up and close the door herself, but unexpectedly, a crescent-shaped figure got there before her and closed the door.
There was a sound of "Bang!"
The sound was so loud that it startled everyone outside.
Except for Li Ziru who had his back to the door, everyone saw an extremely handsome face.
He clearly had the form of an immortal, but at that moment, they felt only a powerful aura oppressing their hearts, choking them. Everyone held their breath, remaining silent, avoiding his gaze with a hint of fear, as if he were not an immortal but a demon.
Li Ziru heard the door close, looked back and frowned.
What are you closing the door for?
Although he had some doubts in his heart, he was not too worried because Fei Qi was inside.
Shu He inside found that the chaotic noise outside had disappeared, and he immediately felt refreshed and began to carefully feel Li Chuzheng's pulse.
However, the next second, her beautiful eyebrows frowned.
A hint of doubt appeared in her eyes. She withdrew her hand and pinched Li Chuzheng's arm, thigh, and palm.
Seeing this, Baili Moqing's eyes darkened slightly, and his smooth and thick eyebrows slightly wrinkled.
Shu He suddenly looked up at him with surprise in his eyes, "It's cartilage grass!!"
