Chapter 500 Hatred (1)_1
Seeing Xiao Xiong’s face suddenly turn pale, Xiao Ruiyuan hooked his lips, his eyes filled with endless coldness.
The man before him, his so-called father, had been intimate with that woman while his mother was pregnant with him, even allowing that woman to conceive. It was when his mother "accidentally" heard about this while lying in the delivery room that she was distressed and had difficult childbirth, which eventually ruined her health and led to her death!
Before his mother’s body had even gone cold, this man took advantage of the fact that his grandfather was too far away at the border to return in time, marrying the poisonous woman who had killed his mother in haste and bringing back Xiao Ruiqing, who was only a few months younger than himself.
He wouldn’t take out his mother’s death on a child. If it hadn’t been for the fact that Xiao Ruiqing coveted his identity and position and tried to assassinate him in his greed for the position of the Princely Heir, he wouldn’t have laid a hand on him considering the respect for his grandfather and the blood they shared as members of the Xiao Family.
Xiao Ruiqing not only ruined his reputation in the family clan but also secretly sided with King Heng, who was the biggest threat to his cousin. Both publicly and privately, he could not let him go.
Sending Xiao Ruiqing back to their ancestral land to guard the clan’s tomb, without defying his grandfather’s last wishes, was the greatest concession he was willing to make. As for whether this man was willing, he simply didn’t care!
"Evil Offspring! Evil offspring! You heartless evil offspring!" Xiao Xiong pointed at Xiao Ruiyuan and bellowed angrily, his face turning red with rage and distorting, his gaze on Xiao Ruiyuan filled with anger and resentment, yet utterly powerless against him!
Who the real head of the Hou Mansion was, outsiders might not know, but he could not deceive himself. The Hidden Guard carefully trained by the Hou Mansion was his doing. If it weren’t for this evil offspring’s reluctance to marry, he would have lost his title long ago!
