Chapter 131 – The truth draws near (2)
Li Shu was really angry too. He was itching for a fight. “Surname Shen, it’s you that came here and brought doom onto yourself.”
Li Mo grabbed hold of him and angrily rebuked, “Third brother, go stand on the side.”
“Oldest brother, he was cursing at second brother.” Extremely unwilling to back down, Li Shu started to roll up his sleeves.
“Third brother.” Li Yan lightly swept his gaze over him and gestured for him step back.
“Shen Fulai.” Li Yan deeply looked at him and coldly said, “Did we just meet today? Do you know not what kind of person I am? If I wanted to do something to your younger sister, do you think you can stop me?”
“You?” Shen Fulai expended a great deal of effort to get up. Glowering at Li Yan, he said, “Li Yan, have I been wrong about you? You dare to do something, but won’t dare to admit it? If you haven’t done anything to Mudan, why would she be hell-bent on you? Have you not see your family condition? Your family is so poor that it only has two beds. If you didn’t do anything, how could my younger sister possibly be interested in you?”
Li Yan’s complexion was ashen. “Shen Fulai, don’t be such an annoying troublemaker. I’ve never lead Mudan on. I can’t help it that she keeps pestering me.”
“Li Yan, how could you still say such words at this time?” Shen Fulai was so angry that this entire body was trembling. “Do you know? After Mudan came back from your place, she…. she secretly tried to hang herself. Fortunately, my mom discovered her in time. Otherwise, her little life would be gone.”
As he said this, Shen Fulai was both angry and upset. He beat his own head and said, “That stupid girl.”
Shen Mudan tried to kill herself? Everyone was stunned. They listened as Shen Fulai pointed at Li Yan and continued to curse him, “Li Yan, you better listen to me. If Mudan is okay, then fine. If she’s not, I won’t let you off.” After saying this, he started staggering away.
Staring at his back figure, Li Mo gravely called out, “Stop.”
“What?” Shen Fulai turned his head and coldly looked at Li Mo. “Li Mo, do you want to interfere? Let me tell you, this isn’t the end. Even if you plead for him, it won’t be any use. If my younger sister’s engagement is ruined, I’ll force your entire family to compensate us.”
“What do you want to do? Fight? I’m not scared.” Li Shu angrily raised his fist at him.
Li Mo pressed Li Shu’s fist down and expressionlessly asked Shen Fulai, “How is Mudan?”
Shen Fulai’s expression slightly stiffened. He snorted. “Not dead yet.”
Li Mo didn’t get annoyed with his attitude. He continued to ask, “Does Mudan know that you came over here?”
“That girl has been crying nonstop since she was rescued. There’s no use in talking to her.” Shen Fulai angrily glared at Li Yan again.
“Okay then,” Li Mo said, “Go back home. Wait until Mudan calms down, then have a proper talk with her.”
“What do you mean?” Shen Fulai could tell that there was some implied meaning in his words
Hearing him asking this question, Li Mo didn’t continue to be polite. His expression was somewhat heavy as he answered, “Fulai, you grew up playing with my second brother. How can you not know his character? He’s always treated Mudan like a younger sister. He’s never had improper thoughts about her. Besides, our family already has a wife. Isn’t it irresponsible of you to come here and say that my second brother seduced your younger sister?”
