Chapter 788 - 232 Lonely Army_2
"Impossible!" Yin Zhiqing grasped his collar, saying, "This is all fake, isn’t it? They are talking nonsense, right? Why would Duke Su want to murder Dad? We didn’t even get to see Dad..."
"He’s already dead." Yin Zhili faced the liquor jar and took another fierce gulp, "Dad’s own men witnessed it. It might not be long before Yanjing announces it to everyone."
"But, why?"
"Because Dad killed Jih Heng’s parents, so Jih Heng wants to avenge his parents, hehehe, there’s a debtor for every debt, Zhiqing, remember these words," Yin Zhili said with a silly laugh.
He seemed crazed, his clothes soaked with spilled wine, oblivious to his disheveled appearance and the strange smile on his face, a far cry from his once noble bearing. On one hand, Yin Zhiqing was grieving, and on the other, she was furious to see Yin Zhili like this. She said, "Brother! What’s wrong with you? Ever since Dad talked to you that day, you’ve been off. You told me to go back to Yunzhong, but what exactly did Dad say to you? What kind of grudge does our family have with Duke Su? Tell me!"
That day Yin Zhili had insisted that Yin Zhiqing and Madam Yin return to Yunzhong. Yin Zhiqing refused, but then, suddenly one day, Yin Zhili rushed them out of the city. He left in such haste, as if they were fleeing from disaster. Yin Zhiqing had thought they were heading back to Yunzhong, but to her surprise, they went to Qingzhou instead. After that, things became incomprehensible for Yin Zhiqing. The siblings used to share everything, but now, Yin Zhili refused to reveal anything. His actions were without any explanation, including taking Jiang Li to this place. Yin Zhiqing knew nothing beforehand. She didn’t understand what had happened, only that life had changed drastically. Every day she lived in unease, feeling that what the Yin Household was about to do was something she couldn’t accept.
And this brother, Yin Zhili, had become a stranger.
Yin Zhili looked at the anxious expression on Yin Zhiqing’s face and suddenly laughed. He said, "Zhiqing, don’t call me brother. Who knows if we even share blood relations."
