Hearing this miserable scream, Li Yao's tears flowed even harder.
Xiao Chenfei and Xiao Moyu were both silent for a while, and their eyes moistened. Seeing Li Yao's face slowly turning grey, the two of them felt a pang of pain in their heart.
Li Yao only turned around and looked at the moon outside the window. Suddenly, he let out a mournful laugh. "Tonight's moon is so beautiful."
Old Gramps Xiao Shuihan heard Li Yao's words and started crying. It was just like how Xiao Chaoran, who had lost his son many years ago, had returned to his clan. He only stood inside the house trembling as he looked out the window at the falling snow. He muttered to himself, "The snow tonight is so beautiful."
In the same scene, things changed for different people.
That year, Xiao Chaoran's heart had died, and now the old man Xiao Shuihan knew that Li Yao's heart had died.
Xiao Chaoran stood at the side, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, only two streams of tears flowed down. He knew that Xiao Yi was helping him right now, helping him to take back the family's power. Although Xiao Yi only wanted Li Yao to hand over his power, he had to look at the situation. Xiao Yi did not need to explain it to them, Li Yao knew who he was handing over the power to.
As someone in power, he must have a tough heart.
Xiao Chaoran shed two streams of tears, but only two.
Liu Wen's crying was still heart-wrenching. She thought back to many years ago, when Li Yao had been extremely generous to her and said that he would lead the Xiao family into the world. At that time, Li Yao's face was extremely bright.
Time passed, Li Yao's dream, Li Yao's dream finally came to an end in this instant.
Li Yao suddenly turned his head and looked at the crying Xiao Shuihan who was sitting on his seat of honor. He asked with a bitter smile, "Father, is extraordinary really better than me?"
It was just a simple question, just like how Li Yao did when he was young, after he scored ninety-nine points. He excitedly asked himself, "Father, is that 100 points really better than mine?"
She was only a child then, but she is now a Li Yao in her forties. Asking this question was such a childish question. However, the seventy-five-year-old Xiao Shuihan suddenly burst into tears.
Tears were like broken beads as they dripped from his withered old face onto the back of his hand.
Her tears were ice-cold, and so were the hearts of men.
"Yao, you are very outstanding." Xiao Shuihan suddenly choked with sobs as he said, "However, in father's heart, Transcendent is more suitable to be this Patriarch. In terms of the overall situation, you are a bit inferior to the transcendent. "
Xiao Shuihan was sure when it came to people, but he had never said these things to his third son, Li Yao. However, he had no choice but to tell Li Yao now.
Li Yao calmly nodded, his face a little flushed and choked with emotions: "Actually, I already knew this a long time ago. "Where does light come from when there is jade? Where does light come from when there is jade?"
His voice slowly became shrill, the last time he shouted out loud.
Xiao Shuihan's tears dripped down. He suddenly picked up the cup of strong wine in front of him and gulped it down. However, when the wine entered his stomach, it didn't let his emotions calm down. On the contrary, his chest rose and fell.
"Wen, let's go."
Li Yao walked over and pulled his wife, Liu Wen, who was crying bitterly. Step by step, he walked out of the hall.
Walking out of the hall, Xiao Chaoran suddenly cried out loud, and shouted at the door: "Third brother."
Li Yao's figure suddenly stopped in an instant. How many years had it been since he had heard this name? Ever since Xiao Chaoran lost his child, he had never called himself Third Brother.
This familiar yet foreign voice caused Li Yao's entire person to tremble. He turned around, looked at Xiao Chaoran, and said in a low voice: "It's fine, third brother. In the future, I will not be considered a member of the Xiao Clan and will not be able to return here. When you miss me, remember to find me by the Huangpu River. Maybe I'm fishing by the Huangpu River. "
"Third brother." Thousands of words still turned into this sentence. Xiao Chaoran's tears simply rolled down as he repeated this form of address once again.
Li Yao laughed sourly, looked at Xiao Chaoran and said: "Third brother's unfulfilled dream, will be completed by you in the future. I remember what Third Brother told you back then: to overthrow the great mountain that is the Hongmen in front of you and lead your clan into the world. "
"Also, the winter that year was full of snow." Li Yao gently looked at his younger brother, and slowly said: "Your child, has been lost. We didn't kidnap your child. "Sorry, sorry."
Hearing his own Third Bro's apology, Xiao Chaoran's tears flowed like a river and moistened his entire face.
He didn't even hear about his own child. However, he heard his own third brother's words of apology. Xiao Chaoran knew that his third brother Li Yao was naturally arrogant and conceited. In all these years, he had never heard of his third brother apologizing to anyone. But now, Li Yao had apologized, admitted defeat, and gave in.
"Once in the Wealthy Class, Xiao Lang will be a passerby." Li Yao turned around and sighed: "If we can repeat it, we can choose. "Then, I will definitely not choose to be born in a rich family's courtyard."
His voice was very, very light, so light that it seemed to be blown away by the night wind.
However, everyone in the hall heard it clearly. Tears streamed down from the eyes of everyone present.
If he wasn't born in a rich family's courtyard, then where did all these desires for power come from? If he wasn't born in the Wealthy Class courtyard, then where did all these affection disappear? If he wasn't born in a rich family's courtyard, then where did all these scheming and scheming come from? If he wasn't born in a rich family's courtyard, then why would he be so anxious?
Li Yao was too tired, and he had been tired for a lifetime. In the end, his sleeves were empty as he left exhausted.
Suddenly, Xiao Shuihan, who was seated on the highest seat, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and loudly roared, "Yao'er, Father is in your debt."
These words were very loud and resonated through the hall. In a position like Xiao Shuihan's, he had always been at the peak of power. Wealth and glory, everything that should be there. For his four sons, he worked hard to nurture them.
His four sons were all gifted geniuses, and did not disappoint him. They all became the pillars of the clan.
However, on this day, he realized that he was wrong. If he had known that it would be so cruel, why would he have raised every child as a successor? He remembered that Li Yao liked to play the piano when he was young. But, what a pity …
Li Yao raised his head and looked at the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Moon before smiling and saying, "Tonight's moon is truly beautiful."
Then, he held Liu Wen's hand and used more force. In that instant, he suddenly realized that he had neglected too much these past few years, including his wife who was by his side and had shared a lot of trouble with him.
"Wen." Li Yao walked under the moon and spoke in a tender and honey-like voice, "I still remember the winter when it was snowing heavily, and I told you about it before. So we held hands and walked. Snow flew in the sky, a snowflake covered our heads, and we were old white hair. After the New Year, we have really grown old with white hair, and your hands are still so gentle. "
Li Yao, who was in his forties, said such love words. This made Liu Wen, who was at the side, cry even more.
This kind of sweet talk came back to Li Yao many years ago when he was a young lad. After the New Year, when Li Yao had nothing left, he had already become a half old man. When he mentioned these love words, all sorts of feelings rose up in Liu Wen's heart.
Mid-Autumn's full moon was like a compass.
Xiao Yi saw Li Yao walk out of the hall and finally coughed twice. Then, he looked at Xiao Chenfei and said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, I heard that the flowers that fall from the Yangzhou were like snow, are very, very beautiful. Why not go there and spend the rest of your life? "
It sounded like a discussion, but everyone understood that there was absolutely no room for negotiation.
The atmosphere in the hall seemed to have frozen at this moment. Xiao Shuihan's body shook. Although he had somewhat expected it, he had not expected it to happen so quickly. After dealing with Li Yao just now, Xiao Yi's spear was now aimed at Xiao Chenfei.
Xiao Chenfei laughed bitterly, then looked at Xiao Yi and asked: "Why aren't you leaving me at Huangpu River?"
Xiao Yi only narrowed his eyes, as he spoke slowly. "You are too dangerous. It's better to stay far away, as being farther away would be more suitable for you to train your body and recuperate. In such a bustling city, I'm afraid you'll get impatient. "
Xiao Chenfei lifted the wine cup in front of him and finished it in one gulp. The strong wine bolstered his courage, and after that, he looked at Xiao Yi and asked all of a sudden, "What if I don't agree?"
Xiao Yi had the intention to kill Lan Mei’er in the past, so he was still in the police station. As for the matter of chasing after him in the rain, Xiao Chenfei still had to confirm this matter once again.
"No, that's easy to say." The smile on Xiao Yi's face vanished in a flash. He looked at Xiao Chenfei and bellowed: "If you don't agree, I will kill your entire family. Do you really think that you had nothing to do with chasing after him in the rain? You are already so old, already past the age of a dream. Don't try to guess my thoughts, don't try to challenge my bottom line. Also, your son set up a Hongmen feast to kill me. You think you're eating a plate of dessert, so I'm willing to pay you back and save your son. If you don't, your son will never wake up. "
The atmosphere became solemn.
The moonlight was like a knife, slicing through everyone's skin until they felt a dull pain.
Xiao Chenfei looked at Xiao Yi, and suddenly asked viciously: "What if I kill you right now?"
"Kill me, haha." Xiao Yi laughed heartily, with might on all eight sides, he remained as unmoving as a mountain as he said, "Hongmen sent out a Flying Knife Hall, and even a Vice Sect Master added in, but none of them were able to kill me. And your so-called Big Dipper Array, wasn't it destroyed with a flip of my hand? Do you really think that Tai Bai's disciple is someone that can be easily bullied? "
