After all, every child has quarrelled with the parent before. But this…..when did the brother who was afraid to even hurt a cockroach turned into such a disappointing man!

”Imagine living with the thought of being unloved by your own parents for sixteen good years! Them not even having time for you. Your mother calling you a stain and finding out your father never got time for you because he was busy building a family with his mistress.”

Lei Zhao spat every word with venom in his voice. If not because his Uncle was older and it was seen as a bad curse to beat an adult he would have beaten the hell out of his uncle.

For every single tear Ying Sheng shed. Every single blood that dropped on the floor he would have let his Uncle pay for it.

”Ying Huai!” Lei Xiao Tong roared as anger coursed through her. Her eyes redden from rage.

”Is this true? Your daughter committed suicide because of you and that ugly woman, Su Cha? If you cannot raise a child simply give her out for adoption! Why ruin her life huh?”

Mr. Ying knew he was in big trouble. He could literally feel the angry waves radiating from his sister and once his sister was angry;she was scary.

She looked like she was about to massacre an entire army.

”You piece of **!You couldn’t be man enough to say no to dad so you blamed your daughter. You knew you would lose the Ying empire if you refuse to marry Su Cha so you didn’t even put a fight.

You know you could have said no. Our parents never forced us to anything we didn’t want to! Just because Grandpa threatened you with the inheritance you went ahead and married Su Cha. Now you’re playing victim? What the hell?!

The family would have accepted Ying Sheng even if you didn’t marry Su Cha because we all knew it was a set up so don’t give me the crap you married Su Cha because of Ying Sheng.”

Mr. Ying knew his sister was angry and he had crossed the line in her book. Anytime his sister curses that means she was angry.

”Some of us have lost our child but you…..you don’t even know how to treat yours right?”

”Sorry…”

”Sorry? I’m I the one you should be apologizing to? Unless you fix this stupid family drama you have created you’re no more the CEO of the Ying group. How can you run a company if you can’t even run your own family!

Also, as a commander you should set a good example for your soldiers to follow. But this….you’re not fit to lead an army!”

Mr. Ying opened his mouth in shock. How can she…

”How can you do this! You know how much I have worked hard for this company! You can’t do this. Also, stripping me off the commander position would make me weak!”

Lei Xiao Tong chuckled dryly at his brother.

”I can and I have. As the eldest sibling and guardian of the Ying family I strip you of your position as the commander of the Ying special forces.”

Mr. Ying face paled and as if a great force had left his body he fell on his knees. He clutched his stomach as he let out a wail of pain.

Lei Zhao watched his Uncle wailed on the ground as if he was in an intense pain and arched his brows. He knew his mother’s family was special and had lots of secrets. This was the first he was witnessing something like this.

He was sure they were forbidden to reveal their secrets unless necessary.

”You should prepare to receive the family punishment for breaking the sacred law of the family. We will take your mistress away too. I think you know how this works.

I hope you reflect once you’re away. Because you’re truly a shame to the Ying family!” Lei Xiao Tong said angrily and walked away leaving her brother on the cold hard floor.

Even though she was angry, her heart couldn’t help but hurt. After all, she was the closest to her younger brother.

She had spent time with him when their parents were away on a business trip or when it was raining; because he was afraid of thunder.

When did her sweet brother turned out to be such a coward and a disappointing man?”

*******************

”How is she?” Ying Sheng asked as she stared at Ying Sheng. She couldn’t help but feel guilty. If only she had seen how much she was hurting; this wouldn’t have happened.

No one knows why their grandfather wanted his brother to marry Su Cha but she knew why.

It was because of Ying Sheng. Their grandfather always believed that she would bring good luck to their family.And having a complete family would help her grow more happy.

He didn’t explain or said anything but the old man made Lei Xiao Tong promise him to take care of Ying Sheng on his dead bed.

But she failed the old man. As a guardian, she had failed a member of their family.

”Mom….are you listening to me?” Lei Zhao’s worried voice snapped Lei Xiao Tong out of her stupor.

She forced a smile and nodded.

”Yes, what were you saying?”

Lei Zhao heaved a sigh and wrapped his hands around his mother’s shoulders.

”Don’t blame yourself mom, Ying Sheng is a great actress. She had all of us fooled with her strong bad girl facade.”

Lei Xiao Tong blew out air and smiled.

”She is such a strong girl. To always act happy and strong even when she was slowly dying inside…. that’s shows how strong she is.”
