Chapter 1192: Chapter 1196: How to Deal with Li Zhiqian Chapter 1192: Chapter 1196: How to Deal with Li Zhiqian Although he thought this way, he couldn’t help but wonder: if he hadn’t been foolish back then, perhaps Xia Yangyang would now be lying in his arms…
“Mr. Lu,” Gu Qichen said after catching Lu Haotian standing at the doorway, lost in thought.
Lu Haotian then snapped back to reality.
Lu Haotian quickly regained his composure.
Lu Haotian said, “Godfather is in the study, asking for you all to co and discuss matters.”
“We know,” Xia Yangyang replied, “we’ll be right there.”
Lu Haotian said nothing more and turned to leave.
Xia Yangyang still looked sowhat worried.
Xia Yangyang spoke, “Godfather must be looking to discuss Li Zhiqian and Phoenix’s matter; the situation now is really tricky.”
The current stand, it was truly difficult.
Li Zhiqian deserved to die but Phoenix now saw him as Xiao Zhan.
Dealing with Li Zhiqian was akin to killing Phoenix all over again.
Phoenix had already died once because of Xiao Zhan.
Gao Huizhi would surely find it hard to bear.
Yet, regardless of the reason, the fact that Li Zhiqian had killed Xiao Zhan remained.
If left unchecked, how could he console his older brother’s spirit in heaven?
Xia Yangyang was severely conflicted inside.
Gu Qichen said, “Let’s head to the study first.”
Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen proceeded to Gao Huizhi’s study together.
Everyone was in the study already.
Except Phoenix and Li Zhiqian.
Gao Huizhi stood facing the wall, hands clasped behind him.
Behind him hung a painting.
It was an ink wash painting.
It depicted a serene forest scene, with two deer, one large and one small, the larger one tenderly licking the smaller one.
This painting wasn’t famous, but it looked very atmospheric.
It had been gifted by an old friend of Gao Huizhi.
The painting’s na was Deep Affection of Licking the Calf.
Deep Affection of Licking the Calf…
Viewing the painting, Gao Huizhi felt an endless sorrow within.
He had adopted several children in his lifeti.
Now, one was dead, one had gone mad.
Another had harbored deep hatred for him for years, constantly scheming ways to end his life.
The irony was palpable.
“Godfather,” Ah Shui called out.
Ah Shui had always been carefree.
For many years, Culture Hall had been his support.
He always believed Culture Hall, with its many brothers and sisters, was the best place in the world.
But since his older brother died, it seed everything had changed.
Completely changed.
Heaven had turned into hell.
The forrly warst and best ho had beco a place shrouded in darkness.
It was indescribable.
It felt as though his spiritual world had been instantly shattered.
Lu Haotian also stood quietly to the side.
Gao Huizhi finally snapped back to the present.
His expression seed as usual, calm as always, as if he could bear the weight of the world.
But Xia Yangyang, who was closer, could see that Gao Huizhi’s eyes were actually red.
“Godfather, what should we do now?”
Ah Shui was the one who spoke.
Gao Huizhi simply said, “Regarding how to deal with the second one, I’d like to hear your thoughts.”
Ah Shui was the first to speak, “I never imagined second brother could be such a beast, committing all those unforgivable acts but… Godfather, the second brother was also deceived. It’s like so cruel joke by fate. Godfather, since our older brother is gone, let’s spare the second brother’s life.”
Ah Shui, after all, still had a soft heart.
