Chapter 359 - Don’t Think We’re Done Here
Liu Quanyan barked, “Be reasonable here! Liu Duo beat us up, but you want us – the victims – to pay her? We could go to the government office and sue you!”
Seeking help from the village chief had proven to be ineffective, so they thought of reporting to the officials.
Liu Duo didn’t mind them. They had no shame to begin with, yet they had the gall to talk about reason?
Ye Liu and Ye Mo went to him, each draping an arm on either side of his shoulders.
Ye Liu smirked, “You want to make a report? Sure, go ahead. What’s your reason?”
“Go on, tell us,” Ye Mo dared them.
Liu Quanyan felt pressured with both of them by his side like this.
Liu Duo seemed to find this scene quite funny.
“Mother, Brother Yan, Qing Er’s looking for you.” Seeing them like this, he guessed that, not only was Liu Duo reluctant to give them money, she had also given them a good beating.
Then he went back inside, not wanting to meddle in their business.
Liu Quanyan entered the house and went to check on his darling son. Grandmother Liu followed.
When he entered the room, Liu Liushi asked Liu Quanyan, “Is Mother back?”
“Yes,” he sat on the bed feebly.
“Then…”
Liu Liushi didn’t finish her question, but Liu Quanfu knew what she meant.
He shook his head and sighed, “Of course Duo Er wouldn’t pay up. And now Mother and Brother Yan seemed to have been punched in the face.”
Liu Liushi found the outcome perfectly predictable; although she hadn’t expected Liu Duo and the gang would beat them up.
Silence descended in the household as the two of them didn’t know what to say or think.
The door made a ‘Bang’ as Grandmother appeared behind it, “Go prepare lunch! I have things to sort out with you later!”
She rolled her eyes at them and went back to Liu Qing’s room.
Liu Liushi and Liu Quanfu exchanged glances. They said nothing and headed to the kitchen.
When they arrived, Liu Liushi couldn’t hold it anymore, “Quanfu, I think Mother wants us to go talk to Duo Er.”
She couldn’t think of any other matter the old woman would have to speak with them about.
She knew clearly what kind of person the grandmother was, and so did Liu Quanyan, who nodded, “I know.”
“We can’t go! Whatever she says, we can’t go! Alright?”
“Yes, I know.” Why would he go?
They couldn’t show their faces in front of Liu Duo and Liu Ran again, not to mention begging for money.
After lunch, Grandmother Liu spoke up, “Quanfu, you and your wife are to go to your wretched daughter’s place later, and get a hundred taels from them. You saw how serious Qing Er is right now. As his uncle and aunt, you cannot ignore this!”
The couple exchanged glances again and lowered their heads in silence.
