Chapter 560: 560, give some time, think about it carefully
The truth was like a torpedo, buried in Shi Yuhuan’s chest. It was so suffocating that it threatened to entirely engulf him with the sound of water before it could even explode.
Shi Yuhuan coldly pressed his thin lips together, closed his eyes, and softly said, “If it wasn’t the doing of my uncle, what could be the reason that made you unwilling to settle my father’s issue? Who killed your son that you could bear to ignore it and even let him get away with it? Unless it was your other son there are no other answers, right?”
Shi Xiuren seemed unwilling to argue anymore.
His voice torn in despair and helplessness, he ground out, “Even knowing this, why can’t you consider your grandfather? Will the loss of a second son not further break his heart?”
As he spoke, he angrily swept everything off the tea table in front of him with his cane.
The loud “bang bang bang” noises cut through the silence, creating a repressive atmosphere!
Shi Yuhuan slowly raised his eyes, giving Shi Xiuren a desolate look: “Grandfather, I once swore that no matter who it is, I will definitely avenge my parents.”
“You want revenge, you insist on killing your uncle. But what happens when your uncle is dead? Guozheng will seek revenge for his father, possibly killing you. Then Annuo, having lost his brother, will seek revenge against them. Are you all seeking revenge, or are you tormenting this old man?” Shi Xiuren, the old man, stared with wide eyes, the wrinkles at their corners almost cracking from strain.
A layer of frost covered his face, and a searing pain spread in his chest. Shi Yuhuan had a moment when even breathing felt difficult, as he sat in silence for a long time.
Seeing Shi Yuhuan remained silent, Shi Xiuren anxiously added, “Do you really have to take this old man’s life to be satisfied…?”
Saying this, wrinkles crinkled around his eyes as tears started to flow, his voice shaking: “I don’t have much time left. Maybe I should just end it all, find some poison and die. Let it all end with me. Then you can do whatever you want, for I won’t be around to see it!”
His voice wasn’t loud, but it was filled with despair, creating a chilling silence in the room, like stagnant water. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Shi Yuhuan’s heart was filled with infinite guilt. He slightly closed his eyes, his voice muted and colourless as it flowed from his lips, “Grandfather…”
As he spoke, he opened his eyes, looking at Shi Xiuren and said quietly, “Give me some time. I need to think about how to solve this.”
“Solve?” Shi Xiuren was barely holding back the tears in his eyes, and asked hoarsely, “What else do you want to solve? Isn’t it enough that your uncle was shot and nearly died at the Ghost Gate?”
Shi Yuhuan said coldly, “Grandfather, please don’t pressure me. Yes, he was shot, but he instigated all this. I just wanted him to bring forth the actual perpetrator, but what did he do? Grandfather, did you ever ask my uncle why he used a woman to threaten me, even planned to take my life?”
In a moment of intensity and complexity, Shi Xiuren sighed, “He was wrong in this matter. I will have him apologize to you…”
With a cold gleam in his eyes, Shi Yuhuan stood up, “An apology is not necessary. I maintain, all I need is for him to bring forth the person who carried out the murder.”
