Chapter 3794: Jinnian

Editor: Henyee Translations

The old master didn’t comment much on the Li family. His daughter married into the Li family, but in the end, it was the son of his in-laws who harmed her. It even caused the only little princess of the Fu family to wander outside and live a life of being beaten and scolded.

She had to endure hardships all throughout her childhood. Every time the old man thought about his granddaughter’s past life, he would suffer from insomnia.

He didn’t feel good. All her suffering was caused by his in-laws’ son.

Until now, his in-laws hadn’t reached out to him. Even an apology would be good enough.

But that didn’t happen.

It was said that his in-laws were using many connections to find out who shot their son.

What a joke.

They didn’t even think about what Li Chuhai did. Instead, they felt that their son shouldn’t have died. They even wanted to take revenge for Li Chuhai.

The old man who walked into the chess room and sat down had a cold look in his eyes.

Now, he wanted to see how far the Li family could go. He wanted to live well and watch as everything played out. The good would be rewarded and the evil would be punished.

He pitied his grandson, Li Jinnian, for having such a family.

His daughter, on the other hand, passed away early and left his grandchild to suffer alone. Since his daughter didn’t fulfill her duties as a mother, he would take up that responsibility.

The chess pieces were placed on the chessboard again. The old master said to Grandpa Xia, “It’s been almost a year since Li Chuhai was executed. His family is using all their connections to investigate how Li Chuhai died out at sea. Old Xia, I won’t talk about the two families, but Li Zhengrong was a ruthless person when he was young. He killed his way out. He deserves to be called a formidable person. This time, if he wants to take revenge for his son, he’ll probably vent his anger on the Fu family.

“The Li family has connections. I’ll have to leave my granddaughter in your hands.”

The old man only knew that Li Chuhai died while out at sea. He didn’t know that the person who ended Li Chuhai’s life was none other than his precious granddaughter and the only little princess of the Fu family, Ye Jian.

This was top secret. Besides Mr. Fu, Major General Yang, and Commander Xia, only the comrades from the Xueyu unit knew about it.

Hence, Grandpa Xia didn’t know about it.

Hearing this, Grandpa Xia put down his black chess piece and smiled slowly. “Of course. Li Zhengrong didn’t manage to pull me down when he was young. Now that he’s old, he can forget about it.

“Jian is the daughter-in-law of our Xia family. She’s the person that Little Six loves the most. She’s also my most beloved granddaughter-in-law. If Li Zhengrong dares to touch Jian, I’ll hurt the Li family too.

“However…”

Grandpa Xia paused for a moment. He seemed to have some misgivings. His hand stopped on the chessboard, and he didn’t place his piece immediately. Instead, he asked the old man, “No matter how close Jinnian is to the Fu family, his surname is still Li, after all. It’s a complicated relationship.

“If we really hurt the Li family in the future, will he have any thoughts? That’s what I’m afraid of.”

The Li and Fu families were in-laws, and his old friend valued his grandson, Li Jinnian, very much. If the Li family made any moves, it would be fine if the Xia family didn’t do anything, but once they did, the entire capital city would collapse. The Li family would no longer exist.

Old Master Li naturally understood how powerful the Xia family was. That year, when Xia Jinyuan’s biological mother went to the Xia family, Madam Li took the opportunity to cause trouble. When Old Master Li found out, he personally brought Second Old Madam Li to the Xia family to apologize. From this, it could be seen that Old Master Li was afraid of the Xia family.
