This point struck Liang Yi the hardest. “Looking back, it was my fault. When King Dun Yu said he would accompany Sister to the outhouse, I laughed at him, saying he looked like a child who hadn’t been weaned, chasing after his mother. In reality, I should have gone with them too!”
He lowered his head and continued, “Later, when I heard the sounds of fighting, I sensed something was wrong. Afraid something had happened to my sister, I hurried out and found King Dun Yu lying in a pool of blood.”
He glanced sideways at Liu Shimei, sighed, and said, “I won’t laugh at him for being a shadow anymore!”
Although the situation was a bit odd, Liu Shimei felt like laughing.
She cleared her throat and said, “It’s already late today, and because of me, no one has had dinner yet. Let’s eat first. I’ll go check on Lingyao; there are some wounds on him that I haven’t had a chance to tend to.”
“Yes. You go ahead,” Madam Wang said. “Later, I’ll have someone bring food over to you. King Dun Yu has suffered this time; he needs to be taken care of properly.”
Liu Shimei smiled faintly and replied, “I will.”
Although they had been polite to Huangfu Lingyao before, it was nothing like this genuine concern.
It was evident that Huangfu Lingyao had stepped forward this time, protecting her at the cost of his own injuries. In the hearts of the entire Liang family, his status had risen sharply!
And this kind of sentiment, all stemmed from loving one’s own and extending that love to others.
Thinking about it, this lovely family deserved a lifetime of gratitude from her!
After everyone dispersed, Liang Yi was called by Liang Wei, probably to face some punishment. Liu Shimei wanted to plead for him, but Liang Sheng said, “Shimei, go, I’ll escort you.”
Everyone agreed.
Liang Yi was bound to get a scolding; Liu Shimei raised her voice, “Grandpa, please don’t punish Ninth Brother! He was terrified today!”
Liang Yi was deeply moved, “Good sister!”
He, the doting brother, dared to shield his sister from anything. If there was trouble, he would bear the blame!
Wasn’t it just because his sister was nice to him?
Liang Wei hesitated, “Shimei, you should go now! Don’t worry, if you say he won’t be beaten, Grandfather will definitely not lay a hand on him!”
His granddaughter was his utmost love.
Liu Shimei believed him, “I’ll go check on Lingyao first. Grandpa, you better keep your word! I will come to see Ninth Brother later.”
Liang Yi’s eyes welled up with tears!
But he was even sadder inside, ‘Sister, coming to see me won’t help. Grandpa promising not to hit me doesn’t mean there won’t be other punishments! Anyway, I’m going to be miserable this time!’
Their grandfather might have a hundred ways to torment him without resorting to physical punishment.
But he was wrong for not protecting his sister today. No matter how hard he was beaten, he had to admit it!
Liang Sheng had no sympathy for Liang Yi, “Shimei, let’s go. He’s tough; even if he gets beaten, he won’t be seriously hurt.”
In her heart, Liu Shimei lit ten thousand candles for Liang Yi.
Liang Wei turned to Liu Shimei with a gentle smile, “That’s right, Shimei, don’t worry. Grandfather listens to you. He won’t even touch a hair on Little Nine’s head because of today’s incident!”
Their attitudes towards the young man and the girl were worlds apart!
Liang Sheng urged Liu Shimei to leave. Madam Yin, Liang Yi’s biological mother, even hurried over, embracing Liu Shimei’s shoulder and guiding her outside, “Shimei, don’t worry. My son is my flesh and blood; I understand him the best. He’ll be fine! You go and see King Dun Yu first. That silly boy suffered a lot to protect you this time!”
Liu Shimei,
Second Aunt, are you sure Ninth Brother is really your son?
