Shao Yunduan began recounting the entire incident, but before he could finish, Shao Liulang interrupted him abruptly. “That’s impossible!”
“If you want, you can go and inquire about it,” Shao Yunduan responded calmly.
Shao Liulang fell silent.
Deep down, he didn’t want to accept the truth. However, he knew Shao Yunduan wasn’t lying, and there was no reason for him to lie.
“Could it be… a misunderstanding?” Shao Liulang questioned hesitantly.
Shao Yunduan sneered. “Cousin, have you forgotten why Zhao Guanghua was transferred back here from the provincial college?”
Shao Liulang struggled to find his words and finally burst out, “He must have been framed! ”
Shao Yunduan couldn’t help but feel that Shao Liulang was adept at convincing himself with fabricated stories.
“Then go ahead and ask the Land Officer and the Elderly Men at Yang Village if what happened is true. Do you think they all conspired to frame Zhao Guanghua?” Shao Yunduan challenged.
Shao Liulang was left speechless. It was evident that he had entertained this idea because he didn’t fully trust his cousin.
Shao Yunduan had no intention of continuing the conversation. He firmly reiterated that his stance wouldn’t change. He even warned Shao Liulang to stay out of this matter, or else he would face the consequences of Shao Sanlangs punches.
The thought of Shao Sanlangs punches sent a shiver down Shao Liulangs spine, and he dared not argue further.
However, he made one last attempt to persuade Shao Yunduan to forgive the Zhao Family for their actions, suggesting that they should reconcile with them as they were all part of the same family.
Shao Yunduan couldn’t help but find this excuse ridiculous and strange, and he stared at Shao Liulang in disbelief.
Finally, after all of this, Shao Liulang revealed the truth to Shao Yunduan. He confessed that he and Zhao Ming were in love and that she was going to be the daughter-in-law of the Shao Family, so they were all family now.
Shao Yunduan was taken aback by the revelation.
He realized that Zhao Ming was currently at the second section of the family.
That was the reason Shao Liulang had come to interrogate them.
The audacity of the Zhao Family was astonishing!
“The Zhao Family has no intention of marrying their daughter to you. You should forget about this. If they truly wanted their daughter to marry you, they wouldn’t have sent Lady Zhao alone to your doorstep. That’s not how marriages are arranged! ”
Marriages were traditionally arranged by parents and matchmakers. Yet here was the girl, without any parental presence or matchmakers!
However, Shao Liulang remained fixated on his own perspective, refusing to listen to anything else.
In a fit of anger, Shao Liulang erupted. He stomped his feet and sneered, “1 know you don’t want me to live a happy life or have a good wife! I won’t compromise on this, and no one will ruin my marriage!’
Shao Liulang stormed out in a fit of anger.
Shao Yunduan proceeded to explain everything to his mother and third brother, not wanting them to be distressed by the actions of their family.
As expected, Ms. Fang, Shao Sanlang, and Yang Xiaoni learned that Shao Liulang had been influenced by Lady Zhao Ming’s words and had come seeking justice among them. This provided some consolation, albeit the situation was still hurtful.
“What a foolish man! Don’t let his words affect you,” Ms. Fang remarked.
Shao Sanlang scoffed, “He’s completely unreliable. What has he learned all these years?”
Qiao Xuan chimed in with a smile, “You gave him a good punch, Third Brother. He deserved it!”
Laughter filled the room as everyone agreed.
Meanwhile, as Shao Liulang departed from the first section of the family, he suddenly came to a halt.
How would he explain the situation to Zhao Ming after his impulsive actions?
