Chapter 708: I’m Back to Marry Long Sijue
“Xun’er, don’t ask me anything first. All you need to know is that when you’re facing hardships, your older brother is also working hard to exact revenge on those people. I won’t let any of those people, who have wantonly hurt us, off the hook!”
No one could understand how Su Mochen was feeling. All of those people who hurt him were those he had trusted the most. They had utterly destroyed his entire world with their own hands.
It was truly a heinous scheme. Not only had he lost his family members and his career, but he had also lost his first child.
“Big brother, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. It is of course necessary to exact revenge, but… what’s most important is that our family gets to be together.”
Su Qianxun looked at him a little worriedly. She knew very well that her older brother was definitely the one who was the most crushed about what had happened to their family.
“Silly girl, those two are not mutually exclusive. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
“Hm, I will always trust you, big brother. You’re the wisest and most mature person in the world that I know.” Su Qianxun’s tone was full of pride.
“Look at you… You are still as playful as you were back when you were young.” Su Mochen reached out and pinched her nose.
“I’m cute!”
As Su Qianxun spoke, she reached out to grab her older brother’s right hand, but he immediately dodged her touch. He grabbed her hand with his left hand instead.
Su Mochen’s heart was ice cold. Not only had he lost his family, his career and his first child, but he had also lost his right hand!
His prosthetic hand looked like it was real, and he could even move it as he pleased. However, it did not carry the kind of warmth a real hand did.
So, why would he let these people off the hook!?…..
…..
The Long family’s mansion.
As per tradition, there was a banquet in the Long family’s mansion during Chinese New Year Eve, and all of Elder Long’s children as well as grandchildren were required to attend.
Long Xiluo was holding Long Sijue’s arm when she showed up, and everyone was shocked when they saw her. The atmosphere quickly became awkward.
Right now, Long Xiluo was considered a disgrace to the Long family.
Xiao Mingyan’s hands trembled violently when she saw Long Xiluo. But she immediately regained her composure. She asked in annoyance as she stared at Long Xiluo, “Long Xiluo, shameless as you are, you still have the audacity to come back! Don’t you think that you have brought enough disgrace to our family already!?”
“I didn’t do anything wrong. Why would I be ashamed? Moreover… both my son and my son’s father are here… Of course I’m back!” Long Xiluo tightened her grip on Long Sjue’s arm. There was a hint of iciness on her cold but beautiful face.
Long Xiluo was the kind of beautiful woman who exuded an icy aura. After going through numerous hardships for the past few years, she had become even more gorgeous and attractive. A beautiful woman who exuded an icy aura could not be compared to ordinary beautiful women. Sometimes, men would be more attracted to the former compared to the latter because of their urge to conquer these women.
“You.. How could you say that you have done nothing wrong? That year…,” Xiao Mingyan could barely suppress the rage in her heart.
“Are you sure that you want to talk about what happened that year?” Long Xiluo sneered. ‘Do you really think that I’m still a seventeen-year-old teenage girl who you can bully as you please?’
Xiao Mingyan was rendered speechless. She looked away diffidently, and she could not come up with a retort.
Such a humiliating thing had happened to Long Xiluo that year, and she was supposed to live with her tail between her legs from then on. Indeed, she had done so after that incident. She left the Long family right after giving birth to Long Lin, and throughout these years, she had only returned once. And at that time, she basically acted like a thief in the night, making sure that no one could feel her presence.
How could she have the audacity to show up in such a fashionable manner today!? Not only that, but she was also wearing an arrogant expression.
“Big Sister Xiluo, you’re finally back. All of us have been hoping that you would come back.” Lan Qingcheng was internally cursing Long Xiluo, but she still put on an obedient and sensible facade.
“Really? I’m back to marry Long Sijue.” Long Xiluo smiled coldly, and there was sarcasm in her long, phoenix-like eyes.
