Chapter 359 - Berserk (1/2)
”What are you trying to say?” Long Xun asked calmly.
He wasn't fazed by Li Youbin's words because he was thinking that this was another way of Li Youbin to remain alive. He knew that Li Youbin was trying to cook up another story or lie and he didn't mind. He had the time and mood to listen to Li Youbin's story.
”I know you might not believe what I say but I don't care.” Li Youbin shrugged. ”Because whether you believe or not, the truth won't change. You and your father are the biggest villains in Li Xiaolu's life. And one day, when she gets to know about this, then she would definitely hate you Long Xun.”
”She would despise you.” Li Youbin laughed loudly.
”Explain!”
”Have you not wondered if Li Xiaolu has parents or not?” Li Youbin asked.
”Humph!” Long Xun sneered, ”She is an orphan.” he stated confidently.
”Really?” Li Youbin asked raising his brows. ”Did your father tell you that or did you assume it yourself when your father brought her to you in a basket?”
Long Xun's narrowed his eyes. Grabbing Li Youbin by his collar he asked through gritted teeth, ”How do you know that my father brought Xiaolu in a basket?”
Li Youbin shrugged. ”Maybe because I was present there or maybe because it was I who gave her into your father's hand.” he laughed.
”You're lying, ” Long Xun stated as he left Li Youbin's collar and pushed him away.
Going back to his childhood, Long Xun began thinking about what exactly happened on the day Li Xiaolu was brought to his house by his dad. He remembered waiting for his father, talking to Housekeeper Qin, his dad entering the house hastily with a basket and then he remembered himself seeing the baby.
Picturing all of the incidents in his mind, Long Xun remembered that yes, Li Youbin was correct. He never asked how his father got the baby nor his father ever mentioned anything about Xiaolu other than she being his future wife. Long Xun was happy to have a baby with him so he, himself assumed that his father might have brought the baby from an orphanage or something.
”Do you remember?” Li Youbin asked making Long Xun open his eyes and return back to the present.
Seeing that mocking smile on Li Youbin's face once again, Long Xun realized that he was letting himself be carried away in Li Youbin's words. He can't let that happen. What if this guy is lying? He can't just believe Li Youbin's words like that over his father.
”You're lying, ” Long Xun spat.
”I am not, ” Li Youbin denied. ”Li Xiaolu's parents are alive and they are searching for her.”
Smack!
”Stop lying to me!” Long Xun roared as he gave a hard punch on Li Youbin's face.
”I am not lying, ” Li Youbin snickered.
Smack! Another punch.
