Chapter: 1269

He had been deeply devoted to his wife Shao Yaqin throughout his life, but he never expected her to give him such a "gift".

If it weren't for the fact that her brother had already been killed, I would hate to tear her brother's body into a thousand pieces!

But regret is meaningless, otherwise, our family wouldn't have ended up where we are today.

Old Master Wu looked at him and asked coldly, "Where is that woman surnamed Xu right now?"

Wu Donghai hurriedly said, "Father, Ya Qin has been locked in her room for this period of time, washing her face with tears every day."

"With tears?" Old Master Wu gritted his teeth and said, "What's the use of keeping such a woman? Are you waiting until the entire Wu family is ruined by her before you wake up?"

Wu Donghai's heart skipped a beat as he quickly explained, "Father, this isn't Ya Qin's fault. It's because her younger brother doesn't care about his own well-being, and we're both victims."

"Slap!"

No one expected Old Master Wu to slap Wu Donghai directly.

Old Master Wu was furious and trembling all over, speaking coldly, "A man of great character must make decisive decisions! If he doesn't, he'll suffer the consequences! I've built up the Wu family step by step, not just because I've been bold in advancing, but also because I've been resolute in retreating! You, on the other hand, lack the courage to cut off a snake's tail or chop off one's arm. Instead, you're clinging to life with difficulty and struggling to survive. You should know that if you tie yourself up, not only will you be harmed, but also the entire Wu family!"

Wu Donghai struggled to say, "Father, Ya Qin has followed me for so many years. How can I kick her out of the house at this moment? If news gets out, how will people look at me and the Wu family? What will happen to my future?"

Old Master Wu looked down on him with disdain and snickered coldly, "You think that if you don't get rid of her, your reputation won't be tarnished? The Wu family's reputation won't be tarnished? Everyone knows Xu Nan Shan is the brother-in-law, everyone knows he's your wife's younger brother, and everyone knows his gang is backed by you. Now that he's dead, you're still keeping that woman around. People will only curse you for being stubborn and refusing to wake up!"

Wu Donghai was so scolded that he was shaken all over.

Before this, he never thought it would go to this extent.

If you want to say that I'm making a move for victory and triumph, I'd be like Old Master Wu, but with an added advantage of tens of thousands of miles.

That's why many things would remain unclear if Old Master Wu didn't point them out, and he himself might not have been able to realize it in his lifetime.

Thinking about this moment, he was already sweating all over.

He only realized at this moment that keeping his wife at home would bring what kind of disastrous consequences to the entire family.

So he gritted his teeth and told Old Master Wu, "Don't worry, Dad. I'll definitely handle this situation well."

Old Master Wu slowly closed his eyes, let out a long sigh, and after a while opened them again, saying, "Well then, what's been happening lately?"

Wu Donghai hurriedly told Old Master Wu everything that had happened during this period, from start to finish.

When Old Master Wu heard it all, his face turned iron-gray without any doubt.

He looked at Wu Donghai and asked coldly, "Just because of a Long White Mountain and just because of a father-son duo picking ginseng on the Long White Mountain, you've killed off the lives of over 20 people twice?"

Wu Donghai hastily explained, "Dad, in fact, the second time I was planning to ask the Eight Immortals for help, but they told me that only you can give orders. However, at that time, you were still unconscious, so I had no choice but to send someone over first."

Old Master Wu slapped him again, and Wu Donghai covered his face, yet dared not say a word. JrNovels.com
