Fang Chixia looked back at her in astonishment and her heart sank. A bad hunch struck her in an instant.
The maid’s scream probably was too loud, because Luo Yi returned to the lobby not long after.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw the vase shattered on the floor, and his face went cold on the spot.
“What’s going on?” His face was dead white, his voice cold to the bone, even his eyes were anguished, giving the impression that he’d lost his life.
“Yes, it’s Miss Fang! I saw the vase shattered before I even walked in, and Miss Fang was the only one in the house!” The maid explained with a shudder.
“I didn’t do it!” Fang Chixiia looked at her in shock, her face white with horror.
“But, but you were the only one in this house just now...” retorted the maid somewhat timidly.
Fang Chixia was stunned, and her gaze shifted to Luo Yi in fright.
“Great Grandpa, it really wasn’t me!”
As if he hadn’t heard her, Luo Yi just murmured, “Do you know what this vase represents?”
Fang Chixia was baffled.
All she knew was that it’s priceless.
Luo Yi’s face slowly lifted, red blood condensed in his eyes, “It’s Yibei’s Great-grandmother’s dowry when she married into the Luo Clan back then. It has been with the Luo family for so many years and it’s the only thing left when she was gone!”
Fang Chixia was stunned the more she listened and her face was horribly white.
“Great Grandpa, I really didn’t do it!”
Fang Chixia understood how he felt at the moment, but if she hadn’t done it, she won’t admit it. It had nothing to do with her.
“Then you tell me, what the hell is going on?” Luo Yi stared deadly at her and asked again.
Fang Chixia was at a loss as to how to answer.
“I don’t know what happened either...” She only stayed in the lobby for a few minutes. What went on inside, she really didn’t know.
“Do you know what I hate the most?” A flicker of sarcasm flashed under Luo Yi’s eyes, and the look in his eyes seemed to carry a few tingles of heartache.
Fang Chixia was stunned.
“Making a mista and refusing to take responsibility!” Luo Yi stomped his cane violently, and almost roared out his latter sentence, “A witness is already here, what more do you want to say?”
“Great grandpa!” Fang Chixia looked at him incredulously and her gaze went cold.
Has he already convicted her?
“Punish her according to the family law!” Luo Yi snapped his cane in his hand and threw it to the side and commanded the few servants who rushed over dispassionately.
Fang Chixia watched the scene and bit her lower lip tightly.
“Old Master, this...” The butler stepped forward and looked at Fang Chixia’s slender figure with some concern.
The Luo’s Family Law was set up for men. Not to mention whether Fang Chixia was a member of the Luo family or not, she was a girl and still looked so fragile. Could she bear such punishment as the family law?
“Didn’t you understand what I said?” Luo Yi snarled at him in annoyance.
“But....” The butler still tried to plead for Fang Chixia, but she interrupted, “Uncle, it’s fine with me. If my suffering would vent Great-grandpas anger, then let it be! But what I haven’t done, I haven’t done it. Great Grandpa, even if you beat the shit out of me till I couldn’t walk, I still won’t admit it!”
She was also stubborn in nature, and won’t admit to anything she hasn’t done, even if she was tortured!
Suffering was nothing, as long as she didn’t lose her backbone.
Why should she admit to something she hasn’t done?
“What are you waiting for?” Luo Yi glared at her coldly for a while, yelled at the group of servants, and looked away.
