Chapter 944: Dead Men Tell No Tales

“Mr. Su, who doesn’t have a father or children, please do it for the virtue of your Su family.”

As Yan Huan finished speaking, she coughed ferociously. It was obvious her throat sounded sore, it sounded awful and miserable.

Su Qingdong did not add on to her words. He just drove his car faster with an indifferent and merciless facial expression on his face at all times until the car came to a sudden halt with a screech.

Su Qingdong opened the car door and walked out of the car. He then pulled Yan Huan out of the car forcefully.

A thud resounded in the air and Yan Huan fell heavily on the ground. The back of her head to her waist hit directly on the ground. She shriveled as she felt the pain, the cloth on her body had already been drenched by sweat as if she was brought out from the water.

She lifted her face and saw that she was brought to a place, none other than the side of the river. The breeze of the river carried a hint of the fishy smell, especially in the fish market. The river water was a branch from the long river. Their current location was exactly at the downstream of the water and this part of the water flowed quickly all year long. Hence, no one would come here as it was extremely dangerous. If one fell off the river, this person would be swallowed by the water in the river. This was not an enchanting sight of the river even though its outlook appeared to be majestic as it was filled with risk. This was certainly the entrance to hell as once stepping into it, one would be crushed to dust.

Yan Huan coughed as she held her stomach, she was choking as the result of the dust from the ground and the dust stuck on her eyelashes, shook off, and drenched.

She laughed miserably. If she was not aware of what Su Qingdong was about to do, she would be a fool.

She knew the Su family would not forgive her, but she never thought that Su Qingdong was more merciless than she expected; he wanted to shut her up forever.

Yan Huan struggled to sit up, then she breathed out lightly, for every time she breathed, what came along with them, was excruciating pain, from her waist, her heart, and her bones.

Suddenly, she bent her knees with her legs folded. She knelt on the ground and knocked her head hard onto the ground.

“Mr. Su, I beg of you, I have children. I still have three kids; they are still very young,” She continued to knock her head while she begged. She did not want her pride, she did not want anything else, she just wanted to stay alive, and she wanted to see her children grow up. Besides, she also missed Lu Yi, she did not want to leave him alone, she did not want him to carry all the pain on his own.

She already burdened herself with his death once, how could she bear it, how could she bear it again.

“Mr. Su, I beg you, I beg of you...” She knocked her head with all her might, her forehead slammed strongly against the ground. One loud thud after another, making others feel a little bit unbearable.

The corner of Su Qingdong’s eyes twitched once. In that instant, he felt merciful.

Yan Huan was only a kid for him, a kid of the same age as his daughter. He then stretched his arm but the phrase, ‘okay’ was eventually stuck in his throat, he could not bring himself to utter it.

“Uncle Su, I beg of you, forgive me.” Yan Huan lifted her face. Her forehead was already bloody, the blood dripped down along with her tears, passing by the corner of one of her eyes as if they were tears of blood.

historical

Her voice made others sob, her words made others feel sorrowful, and her phrases made others shed tears of blood.

“Uncle Su, I beg of you to forgive me. I swear, I truly swear, I would not say a word, I would not say anything. If I tell anyone, then my dead body will not be buried. I will never ever reincarnate.”

She would not; she seriously would not tell anyone.

However, her request and humility did not exchange for Su Qingdong’s mercy. Su Qingdong squatted down and stared at Yan Huan expressionlessly.

I want to let you go too, yes, that’s the truth, that’s my real intention, but I can’t.

Yan Huan’s red lip shivered, her throat felt painful again.

“We all know that dead men tell no tales.”

He stretched out his hand and placed it on Yan Huan’s head, “Don’t blame me, blame your blood type, blame your identity as one of the Lu family members if you want.” He could not bear the anger and vengeance of Lu Yi. The current Lu Yi was not the same as before. Su family had also changed from the past and the Su family was threatened by the Ye family too many times. They were going downhill a few years ago already, and now he was the only heir to the Lu family, Su Muran was sick too. Su family would not be the same anymore, the current Su family was torn apart, they could not withstand any changes or impact.

He could totally imagine the repercussions. If the fact that they had caught Yan Huan, and forcefully took her bone marrow went out to the public, based on the Lu family’s attitude, he feared the Su family would be in danger by then.

He could not let Su family be destroyed in his hand, he must protect the Su family which meant his only choice was to ask for forgiveness from this girl.

“Unce Su, I beg of you.” Yan Huan reached out her hand and tugged Su Qingdong’s cloth. “I beg of you, let me live please,” she cried. Her tears blurred up the dust in her eyes. In the white mist, she blinked heavily, but she could still see a bit of Su Qingdong’s cold expression.

Su Qingdong stood up and picked Yan Huan up. He then pushed her to the edge of the downstream of the river. In that instant, all Yan Huan smelled was the stench of the river, and the smell of death, right in front of her.

She held firmly onto the fence in front of her for she did not want to die. She wanted to live, she did not want to die for no reason at all.

She shook her head, the wind from faraway swept past her thin clothes and drifted through her sleeves. The wind entered her clothes, hurting her skin, and also freezing her heart.

Su Qingdong forcefully released Yan Huan’s grip and pushed her down. He did not hesitate at all and had no mercy. He had nothing because all he had now was a sense of relief and freedom.

Thump! Everything was over along with the splash.

Su Qingdong turned his body around, finally, he felt a great sense of relief.

Everything was resolved, yes, everything was resolved.

On the small bed, the child who was sleeping at the moment, suddenly clenched her small fist tightly, squeezing her eyes and started crying loudly.

Lu Yi hurriedly left behind all his work and he strode over quickly to carry his daughter on the small bed.

“What’s wrong? Did you have a dream?” Lu Yi comforted his daughter, but he did not know if such a young child would have a dream.

“Good girl, don’t cry.”

Lu Yi skillfully swung the daughter in his chest, but it was weird for little Xunxun to cry this time as she had not cried like this for a long time.

Lu Yi caressed her daughter’s tiny face with care. Xunxun had not gained back her weight recently – she was still small and thin. Her chin was sharp and her eyes turned bigger. This made her appear as though her entire tiny face was only occupied by the eyes. Such an appearance made her look exactly like her mother.
