Chương 27: What A Good Person! (Part 2)
Biên tập viên: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Senior, senior… I'm begging you, please spare Sister Shao…"
What?!
This little b*tch really had the nerve to speak like that? And even to the point that she was pleading for Shao Qingrou's life?!
What had she meant by saying she had saved Young Master Li? What was she doing by begging these people to spare her life? She was clearly the one who had beaten Young Master Li into that sorry state!
This was simply turning the facts upside down! This was simply disregarding morals completely!
It was really… Ahhh…
"Pfft…" Shao Qingrou was furious that she could even feel the anger in her heart. She started to spit blood again, but what was truly bleeding was deep within her: her heart!
'Don't believe her. This young lady is a shameless swindler, an evil thief!'
…
The cries of despair that Shao Qingrou was shouting in her head couldn't be heard by the people watching. She could only protest silently in her heart. It wasn't even possible for her to make an expression.
The other people could only see a thin, frail, and delicate little girl crying pitifully, her tears and blood mixing. She was so frightened that she was shivering. Lu Jiu Que was a miserable sight from head to toe.
But even so, she still held onto Shao Qingrou tightly and tried her best to protect the girl in her arms. Her eyes, which were looking right at the middle-aged man, were full of determination.
This was the kind of picture that people couldn't help but sigh upon seeing. This was truly a good child who valued feelings and morals!
Finally, someone couldn't hold back any longer and spoke up for Lu Jiu Que.
"Elder Li, from how I see it, Shao Qingrou has lost her mind. She didn't really mean to attack Li Ronggui. Why don't you spare Shao Qingrou's life?"
"Right. After all, Shao Qingrou is also one of the most outstanding disciples that our sect has invested effort in training, and she was also very talented… Aye, but now with one hand chopped off, is there even any future for her?"
"Elder Li, live and let live. Shao Qingrou's master isn't here now, but she is also not someone that we should provoke too easily…"
…
The crowd began talking all at once as they tried to persuade him. Unquestionably, they were trying to repeatedly plant an idea in his subconscious mind.
Li Ronggui had been beaten up by Shao Qingrou. It was this young lady, Lu Jiu Que, who had rescued him.
This young lady hurriedly told them the truth of how she had saved Li Ronggui. It wasn't for the sake of taking credit, but for the purpose of convincing them to spare Shao Qingrou's life.
This young lady had a pure and good disposition. She was upright and compassionate. What a good person!
The crowd's persuasions also provided Li Boyi with a face-saving way out.
In truth, he had carefully examined his son's injuries. He found that it was just a hit on the head, a fracture in one arm, and some bruises on his body. There was nothing that could be considered particularly serious. So long as he took a few grade-two vitality restoration pills and had a few days' rest, he would fully recover.
But… he, on the other hand, had chopped Shao Qingrou's arm off. This was quite a problem.
Shao Qingrou had pretty good abilities. She was only twenty-five years old but already an outstanding student placed in specialized training. Her master also valued her with high regard, so Li Boyi was afraid that her master wouldn't let the matter rest so easily.
But it was absolutely impossible to ask him, Li Boyi, to admit he was at fault!
Furthermore, he wasn't going to admit that he had gone overboard in what he had done. He hadn't taken Shao Qingrou's insignificant life. That was already him showing mercy to the best of his abilities.
Picking his son up from the ground, Li Boyi said coldly, "Hmph. I'll spare her life for the time being! I'll head back home first. I will have to trouble you all with the aftermath of this matter later."
Finishing what he had to say, Li Boyi kicked off the ground and disappeared into the darkness of the night like a majestic eagle. Without even a word of gratitude to Lu Jiu Que, he displayed his arrogance.
The moment Li Boyi left, the atmosphere at the scene immediately sprang to life. Of course, everyone was expressing their appreciation for Lu Jiu Que.
"Children like you are simply fantastic! Thank you so much for saving Young Master Li. You really have no idea how precious he is. Elder Li only has this one son. My child, what do you want in return? Speak your mind! Elder Li won't be stingy at all!"
