He Qichen doted on He Linsheng very much. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have developed such an arrogant and despotic personality. Moreover, He Linsheng looked so miserable. Hearing these words, he was sure that it was Lin Bai and the others who had done this.
He Qichen checked He Linsheng’s pulse and found that his spiritual energy had been greatly depleted. It was like a knotted hemp rope that had twisted into a ball. It was impossible to distinguish it clearly, and it had even affected his foundation. In the worst case scenario, his life would be in danger At the very least, his cultivation level would drop drastically.
“How could young master’s spiritual energy be like this? It’s so depleted that he’s no different from a person who’s at the end of his rope.”
When He Linsheng had taken the medicine, his spiritual energy had been depleted before the effects of the medicine could be fully exerted. Then, he had continued to take the medicine. This cycle repeated itself, causing great damage to his body. In addition to the subsequent side effects, it had resulted in the current situation.
Even if He Linsheng could wake up in the future and have a good rest, his cultivation level would probably fall by quite a bit. How could He Qichen accept this?
He Qichen used his rich spiritual power to beat those subordinates until they vomited blood.
He Qichen’s expression was gloomy as he stared at them coldly. “It’s all your fault for not taking good care of him.”
The few of them kowtowed until they were bleeding profusely, hoping that He Qichen would spare their lives. “This has nothing to do with us. It’s young master who kept taking drugs in order to defeat those people. There’s nothing we can do about it.”
The spirit energy in He Qichen’s palm flickered as if it was gathering a storm, pressing down on everyone until they could hardly breathe. “Then are you all idiots? Don’t you know how to stop him?”
“Young master’s personality is like that. We’ve tried to persuade him, but he didn’t listen at all. Instead, he blamed us for interfering.”
The few servants were like frightened quails, afraid that He Qichen would vent his anger on them. They hurriedly said, “It’s all because of those people. If it wasn’t for their actions, young master wouldn’t have fallen to such a state.”
One had to admit that this blame was thrown well. The spirit energy in He Qichen’s palm gradually dissipated as expected. The few of them couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief,
He Qichen immediately looked for his older brother, He Fan, and said, “Look at how miserable Linsheng is. That group of people is really too much.”
“You know Linsheng’s character. Although he’s usually a little overbearing, he knows when to stop. Now, he has been beaten to such a state by someone who appeared out of nowhere.”
He Fan had also watched He Linsheng grow up. Seeing him like this, his heart ached, and he could not contain his anger. “Outrageous! This is an insult to the He family! Do you know who beat Linsheng to such a state?”
“The person who followed Linsheng said that it seemed to be from the Shao family.”
He Fan frowned. “The Shao family? Our two families don’t seem to have any conflict in the past. Why did they fight today?”
He Qichen, who had always wanted to avenge his beloved son, could not think too much. “Brother! No matter who it is from the Shao family, we have to call them out and give us an explanation.”
Although the He family could not compare to the Shao family, if they really fought head-on, the Shao family would be greatly weakened. Therefore, the He family was not worried about this. After all, they only wanted to beat up the culprit.
Seeing that He Fan was still hesitating, He Qichen could not help but urge, “Elder brother, we have already been bullied to the head. Look at what state Linsheng is in. Don’t tell me that we have to swallow our pride?”
“Alright, I’ll go to the Shao family right now and ask for an explanation!”
In a certain pavilion in the backyard, it was like a shrunken Jiangnan water village. There were ponds, rockery, and nine winding corridors. Everything was available here.
He Xueyao sat in the pavilion. She looked like a maid who had walked out of a landscape painting. Her posture was elegant and gentle.
She frowned and looked forward. She vaguely heard the noise in front of her. Even from here, she could not help but be curious. “What happened? Why is the front yard so noisy?”
The maid beside her rushed over and whispered into her ear. Her sparkling eyes were a little surprised. “Such a thing happened.”
The maid nodded. “I heard it clearly from the side. I even went to check on second young master’s condition. His condition is indeed not optimistic. He’s seriously injured.”
Seeing that He Xueyao did not seem surprised at all, the maid could not help but ask, “Miss, why aren’t you curious about who hit him?”
He Xueyao said nonchalantly, “It doesn’t matter who hit him. He Linsheng is spoiled to the point of being lawless and tyrannical. It’s only a matter of time before he ends up like this.”
Her tone paused, and her voice was almost inaudible. Her gaze said faintly, “Speaking of which, I still have to thank that person for doing what I’ve always wanted to do…”
The maidservant beside her did not hear clearly. “Miss, what did you say just now?”
He Xueyao smiled but did not say anything. She returned to her previous gentle appearance. “It’s nothing. Since father and second uncle are going to look for the Shao family to get the person, then let’s go and take a look too.”
She wanted to see who exactly was this person.
It’s said that He Fan only had one daughter. Although he doted on her very much, due to some stubborn traditional ideals, he believed that the family should still be passed on to a man.
Therefore, he treated his younger brother’s son, He Linsheng, as if he was his own son. This caused He Xueyao to feel a little awkward. Although they were related by blood, they were not on the same level as her younger brother.
Moreover, He Linsheng’s personality was overbearing and arrogant. Ever since he was young, he had always been on top of He Xueyao.
She had always been kind and gentle to others, so she was very popular. Everyone liked her very much. On the surface, they got along well with He Linsheng. As for what happened in private, only the two of them knew.
This time, He Linsheng was in trouble. As his elder sister, how could she just sit by and do nothing? No matter what, she had to go and console him..
