Chapter 1605: Why not accept what is delivered to your doorstep?

Xiao Chonghuan saw his son constantly wiping his tears.

The crowd began to grow, all saying that the Xiao couple were a loving father and mother.

Xiao Yuchuan coldly curled his lips, "Didn’t Master Xiao sever our father-son relationship and say we would never associate with each other again in this lifetime?"

Shen Yun, upon hearing this, furiously pounded Xiao Chonghuan’s chest, "It’s all your fault, all your fault! You listened to that vile woman’s words and made my Chuan’er suffer outside for five years! My poor Chuan’er..."

Years ago, after the maid Shuang’er gave birth to a son, she immediately announced that she had given birth to Xiao Chonghuan’s son.

But later, both the child and Shuang’er were killed by Xiao Chonghuan, who publicly claimed they died of sudden illness.

The onlookers were very curious about the vile woman mentioned by Lady Xiao, but no one dared to ask.

Shen Yun was beside herself with anger, "Master, if it weren’t for your favoritism towards Shuang’er, that woman wouldn’t have put a green hat on you..."

"Silence, what nonsense are you spouting in front of everyone!" Xiao Chonghuan couldn’t afford to lose face.

Shen Yun, upon being shouted at, realized she had misspoken and laughed mockingly, "Master’s face is important. If it weren’t for your foolishness, would we have been separated from Chuan’er for five years? Haha... Honestly, in my heart, I hate you to death! Chuan’er is my only son, but you caused me to be separated from my flesh and blood!"

Xiao Chonghuan, his face dark and stiff, did not argue back. He was already old; if the Xiao Family had no descendants, how could he face his ancestors? Typically, people his age are already old and no longer have offspring.

Shen Yun had long since gone through menopause.

"Chuan’er, come back to the Xiao Mansion with Mom." Shen Yun disregarded everything and went forward to embrace Xiao Yuchuan; this son was all her hope.

Xiao Chonghuan also said emotionally, "Chuan’er, come back to the Xiao Mansion. In the past... it was your father’s mistake. As long as you are willing to come back, your father will gradually transfer all the power to you."

"Chuan’er, there is no lasting enmity between father and son. All these years, your father and I have sent countless people to look for you." Shen Yun was crying non-stop, "Good child, come back with us."

"Since the bond is broken, there’s no need to associate any longer. I, Xiao Yuchuan, do not care for the power and wealth of the Xiao Family." Xiao Yuchuan pushed Shen Yun away and walked into the inn.

The Xiao couple wanted to follow, but Guard Li Mu blocked their way, "Master Xiao, Lady Xiao, please return. My master does not wish to be disturbed."

"How dare you!" Xiao Chonghuan yelled sternly, "Do you dare to block me?"

"If I cannot stop you, I will have to face my master with my head." Li Mu showed no fear.

Xiao Chonghuan carefully scrutinized the guard before him. His breathing was even, his steps steady; even when facing the head of a first-class family, he was neither humble nor arrogant. It was clear he was highly skilled in martial arts and had vast experience.

He looked again at his son’s indifferent back, dressed in luxurious attire, exuding an imposing aura.

Not everyone has this air of confidence.

It must be that his son had achieved something in these five years.

Shen Yun also glanced over to Guard Li Mu, analyzing the situation of her son, sharing the same thoughts as her husband. She tugged at her husband’s sleeve, "Master, it was all your fault before. Don’t push Chuan’er anymore. If he gets angry and disappears again, where will we find him? We couldn’t find him all these years. Blood is thicker than water; he will come home eventually."

Xiao Chonghuan then slightly softened his facial expression, "All right then."
