Chapter 197: Chapter 196 What’s wrong with Xiaotian?

Li Fugui raised his head and asked anxiously, "Xiaotian, what happened to Xiaotian?"

"I cut off the work she found! She can’t afford to support you anymore," Li Fuyou said slowly and deliberately, a malicious smile on his face that he didn’t bother to hide, waiting to see Li Fugui explode in anger yet remain powerless.

"Li Fuyou, you!" Li Fugui was infuriated by Li Fuyou’s words. Whatever grudges they had, Fuyou could take them out on him, why did he have to target his Xiaotian? He lifted his fist and swung it towards Li Fuyou’s face.

But the punch never reached Li Fuyou; it was blocked by one of his loyal henchmen.

Li Fuyou waved his arm, signaling his cronies to let Li Fugui go, then continued, "Do you want to keep listening? Hear what exactly I did to that Little Maid?"

"..." Li Fugui’s eyes reddened with rage. He didn’t dare listen any further, afraid to hear that his Xiaotian had been bullied. He felt that Li Fuyou had gone mad, his brother, who hardly ever spoke, when did he become like this?

"Don’t worry, that Little Maid is someone you’ve touched, and to touch her myself would be to dirty my own hands!"

"..." Why did he have to insult his Xiaotian? His Xiaotian was so wonderful, the best woman in the world.

"Li Fuyou, what deep hatred do we have between us? You already have the entire family fortune, what more do you want?"

He really couldn’t understand, what still dissatisfied his brother to the point of driving one to despair.

Li Fuyou thought for a moment, "Deep hatred? None!"

"..."

"Just want to bully you a bit, who asked you to bully me when we were kids? You should taste the feeling of being bullied!"

"..." Just for that?

Li Fugui’s thoughts drifted back to their childhood, in the vast Li Residence he was the only child, feeling very lonely and desiring a playmate. He was ecstatic when he found out he had a brother and wanted to bond with him. So, he went to play with his brother, but his brother ignored him. To get his brother’s attention, he did many strange things.

They were just children’s games, never did he expect his brother to hold a grudge until now. He now greatly regretted provoking him back then, subjecting his Xiaotian to such trials.

"What will it take for you to leave Xiaotian alone?"

"I have already let her go. I just made sure she couldn’t find work, didn’t really touch her."

"..." Couldn’t find work? Wasn’t that forcing her?

"However, just because I let her go doesn’t mean others will. That Little Maid has run off with a rich young master, think about it, what do you think will happen?"

Li Fuyou showed a wicked smile, "You are the eldest son of the Li Residence, and you know very well what those young masters could do, no need for me to elaborate."

"..." Of course, he knew, his friends never treated maids as human beings. His fists clenched tight, veins appearing on the backs of his hands. His Xiaotian, was she bullied? How then could she go on living?

"She did it all to provide for you, you should be very grateful for her sacrifice!"

Li Fuyou laughed heartily, feeling that this was just the right amount of torment for his brother, then he left the courtyard.

Li Fugui was left alone, completely despondent, his mind filled with Li Fuyou’s words. His Xiaotian, bullied while trying to support him, could she withstand it?

No, he couldn’t let Xiaotian find out he knew everything, he couldn’t let her feel ashamed, she wouldn’t survive that.
