Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next day, the case was brought before the court, and he could no longer tolerate the situation.
That very night, Zhao Guangyin disguised himself as a servant of the mansion, dressed in appropriate attire. He used a ladder to climb over the wall and embarked on a journey to Shaoding Village.
He was always certain about one thing… He knew the root cause of all these troubles.
If only the Shao Family, or specifically Shao Yunduan, could show some mercy, everything could be turned around.
Late at night, Zhao Guangyin knocked on the door, causing a startle among the family members.
Shao Yunduan allowed him inside to have a conversation in the courtyard.
With clenched teeth, Zhao Guangyin knelt down before Shao Yunduan and pleaded, “Provincial Champion Shao, I beg you, show us mercy!’
Unmoved by the plea, Shao Yunduan spoke quietly, “Zhao Guanghua didn’t spare us when he committed his actions against us!”
Shao Yunduan couldn’t help but imagine the devastating consequences if the same incident had befallen Yang Xiaoni. How would his Third Brother be affected? What about their parents?
This once harmonious family would have been shattered into fragments!
Even if he were to achieve a high-ranking position in the government, he would never be able to experience a harmonious family again. It would forever remain an insurmountable barrier in his heart.
Filled with remorse, Zhao Guangyin uttered with guilt, “I’m sorry, I failed to teach him well…
Shao Yunduan remained silent.
Zhao Guangyin’s voice trembled as he said, “I’m willing to surrender half of the Zhao Family’s properties…”
“Hehe…
Zhao Guangyin let out a bitter laugh, realizing the absurdity of his own words. What good would it do to share only half of the properties?
The entire Zhao Family’s wealth would end up in the hands of County
Magistrate Qiao and the Shao Family. Half of it would be meaningless…
He clenched his fists, determination in his eyes. “Provincial Champion, I intend to leave this county with my family, far away from here. I swear that we will never set foot in this place again!’
Finally, Shao Yunduan showed a hint of interest. “Where do you plan to go?”
Zhao Guangyin felt a surge of motivation. He knew he had struck the right chord.
Knowing that he had to leave his hometown and settle elsewhere, Zhao Guangyin didn’t allow himself to dwell on the thought. He quickly replied, “We plan to go to Linjia County.”
Linjia County and Heshan County were located far apart, in opposite directions. Their paths would never cross again in their lives.
Shao Yunduan remained silent for a moment before speaking, “Keep your family within your sight. If you make another move, 1 won’t show any mercy!’
Zhao Guangyin had no choice but to agree, “l understand…”
“Thank you for sparing me, Provincial Champion Shao!”
Zhao Guangyin expressed his gratitude, stood up, and returned to where he came from.
Shao Yunduan went back to his room and found Qiao Xuan sitting against the headboard, yawning.
As he returned, Qiao Xuan was no longer drowsy and asked, “l heard Elder Young Master Zhao was here. Was he begging for mercy? What did he say? It’s a pity that he’s the only sensible person in the Zhao Family!’
Shao Yunduan sneered, “If he truly were sensible, he wouldn’t have allowed his brother to commit all these acts. A family should stand united and share both honor and misery. He doesn’t even grasp this concept…”
Qiao Xuan also smiled, “Yes, dear, you will have to take care of our family more from now on.’
“Yes, thankfully our mother has a clear mind.”
Qiao Xuan agreed. It was true, but unfortunately, their father’s mind was not as clear.
Shao Yunduan was becoming more determined in opposing his father, working hard to correct his impractical ideas and prevent him from making any further mistakes.
Shao Yunduan informed Qiao Xuan about Zhao Guangyin’s decision, and Qiao Xuan couldn’t help but admire his resoluteness.
The Zhao Family needed to stay as far away as possible, in case they continued to cause trouble for their family..
