Chapter 729: Chapter 729: I Alone Take Responsibility for My Actions Chapter 729: Chapter 729: I Alone Take Responsibility for My Actions After everyone had left, only the brothers Xu Xuanqiang and Xu Xuanhao remained in the room.
Xu Xuanhao realized sothing and asked, “Brother, do you have sothing to say to ?”
Xu Xuanqiang nodded and his expression imdiately turned grave.
He said in a deep voice, “Regarding the ‘Young Master Tian’ incident, Xu Fan seems to have found out.”
“What…”
Upon hearing this, Xu Xuanhao’s face changed drastically, and he couldn’t sit still any longer.
He stood up abruptly in shock.
But he accidentally pulled at his wound, causing a sudden sharp pain that made him grimace.
However, he couldn’t care less about the pain at this mont.
Panicked, he grabbed Xu Xuanqiang’s arm and asked anxiously, “What should we do now?
...
That person didn’t hesitate to kill several of the Lu family mbers, what’s stopping him from killing the two of us?
If our deeds are exposed, I’m afraid we’ll really be dead.
Maybe…
Brother, we should take this chance to escape?
Yes, let’s flee while they’re not paying attention, the farther the better, and find a place where no one can find us to hide.”
“You need to calm down first,” Xu Xuanqiang said with a frown.
“Calm down?
With everything turning out like this, how can you ask to stay calm?
Wasn’t it you who insisted on taking down Xihai dia?
If not for that, we wouldn’t have ended up in this ss.”
“What do you an by saying this now?
Are you suggesting that all of this is my fault?”
“No…
I didn’t an that.
What I’m asking is, what should we do next?”
Xu Xuanhao was at his wits’ end, having completely lost any sense of direction.
Xu Xuanqiang felt agitated, closed his eyes, and took a long breath.
After a few seconds, he reopened his eyes, revealing a look of resolute determination.
He said in a heavy tone, “You take care of father for .
Also, say a word to him for , tell him that his unfilial son, Xu Xuanqiang, can no longer serve at his knees.”
After that, Xu Xuanqiang, without any further attachnt, walked towards the door.
It took several seconds for Xu Xuanhao to snap back to reality.
He called out hastily, “Brother, what are you going to do?
Co back, let’s discuss this further.”
However, Xu Xuanqiang didn’t turn his head back; he just “bang” shut the door and his footsteps sound died away.
Xu Xuanhao was frantic, but with his heavily injured body, he could barely stand up, let alone chase after Xu Xuanqiang.
He fully understood what Xu Xuanqiang intended to do.
Xu Xuanqiang was ready to take on all the bla alone and sacrifice himself to protect Xu Xuanhao.
Thinking of all this, Xu Xuanhao’s eyes reddened.
“What happened?” Xu Queyuan had finished receiving treatnt and was being wheeled out of the room by his personal physician at that mont.
Seeing Xu Xuanhao’s hysterical state, Xu Queyuan furrowed his brows.
“Dad!” Xu Xuanhao turned his head, looked towards Xu Queyuan, and tears imdiately flooded his eyes.
…
anwhile, Xu Xuanqiang left the room and headed straight for the reception hall.
At first, his steps were heavy as if he was a condemned prisoner walking to the execution ground.
But gradually, his steps beca brisk.
His deanor turned calm as if he had let go of worldly concerns.
As he encountered family mbers along the way who greeted him, Xu Xuanqiang would respond with a smile and a nod.
Everything seed just like any other day.
Before long, Xu Xuanqiang arrived outside the reception hall.
Outside the hall, many people were still discussing animatedly, nearly all of them from Xu Xuanyi’s faction of the Xu family.
The center of their conversations revolved around Xu Fan and Xu Yixue’s marriage.
“Eh, why is he here?” After quite a while, one of the Xu family mbers finally turned his head, caught sight of Xu Xuanqiang standing at the door, and was imdiately surprised, then his brows knitted together.
Upon hearing this, the others also turned their heads to look, with expressions of disgust erging on their faces.
They all knew that one of the main culprits behind the Xu family’s crisis was this man.
One of those with a fiery temper couldn’t hold back his anger and scolded, “Why aren’t you hiding in your room?
How dare you show your face here?
You colluded with outsiders to set up the family head, you don’t deserve to be part of our Xu family!”
Once soone started, the rest of the crowd also joined in the indignation, pointing fingers and hurling accusations.
“How could I have not seen that you’re such a heartless and ruthless person?”
“I must have been blind; I nearly cast an approving vote for you before.”
“Hurry back and don’t embarrass yourself here anymore.”
“You’ve completely disgraced our Xu Family…”
…
Facing the unanimous accusations from everyone, Xu Xuanqiang didn’t argue or dispute, but stood there silently, not saying a word.
In his eyes, there was even a hint of relief and composure.
“What happened?” Xu Xuanyi and others noticed the commotion outside the door and ca out to see.
The Xu family mbers surrounding Xu Xuanqiang made way for Xu Xuanyi and the others.
“Is it you?” Seeing Xu Xuanqiang, Xu Xuanyi frowned involuntarily and asked, “What are you doing here?”
“I ca here to tell you that I am ‘Tianshao’!” Xu Xuanqiang looked at Xu Xuanyi calmly and said.
The people around looked at each other, not understanding the aning of Xu Xuanqiang’s words.
However, Xu Xuanyi’s face changed abruptly, “What did you say?!”
Xu Xuanqiang emphasized again, “Tianshao is ; I am the one behind everything.”
Xu Xuanyi’s expression changed, and then he asked the rest of the Xu family to disperse.
He then told the guests who had co to offer congratulations to go to the restaurant to dine first.
The crowd sensed there was an issue and expressed understanding as they followed the Grand Elder and others to the restaurant first.
Soon, only Xu Xuanyi and his wife, Xu Fan, Xu Yixue, and Elder Xu among a few others were left here.
Even Tongtong was led away to play by the old turtle.
Xu Xuanqiang sat down on a chair and said calmly, “So you’re planning to interrogate , are you?
Just ask away.
I will spare no detail.”
Xu Yixue looked incredulously at Xu Xuanqiang, her voice trembling as she asked, “Could it really be…
that it was you who did it?”
She still rembered how good her uncle had been to her when she was young.
She couldn’t rember exactly when, but the atmosphere at ho had started to change; people from the two factions of the Xu family beca incompatible, more like enemies than relatives.
Xu Xuanqiang nodded, “Yes, I did it all.”
Xu Yixue’s delicate body trembled, and she stepped back a few paces.
That ti, if it hadn’t been for Xu Fan turning the tide, Xinghai dia would have collapsed, and she would have had no choice but to marry Shi You after losing the gambling match.
She never imagined that her own uncle, Xu Xuanqiang, would be the mastermind behind the scenes.
Previously, Xu Xuanqiang had been very eager to push her into a marriage with Shi You, which she thought was just a bit rash, but she had never imagined that her uncle would be so insidious.
This truth was sothing Xu Yixue found difficult to accept in the mont.
Xu Fan gently embraced Xu Yixue, offering her comfort.
Xu Xuanyi frowned and said, “Then why did you choose to confess the truth to us now, of all tis?”
Xu Xuanyi glanced at Xu Fan and said with a wry smile, “Do you think I wanted to confess?
My plan was to take this secret to the grave.
But you have a great son-in-law, who seems to know everything.
Since he already knows, how could I not admit it?”
Xu Fan said indifferently, “I only learned the truth after eting him too.”
Elder Xu asked, “What exactly happened from start to finish?”
“This is how it went…”
So Xu Fan briefly explained the situation with Xinghai dia to Elder Xu.
After listening, Elder Xu was visibly infuriated.
But since this was ultimately a matter for the Xu Family, Elder Xu didn’t want to overstep and left it to Xu Xuanyi to decide how to deal with it.
Xu Xuanyi said, “Now that you all know the truth, to kill or to slash, I am at your rcy.
