The moment the door closed, Yu Yuan and Li Guangzong's faces showed expressions of relief for surviving a disaster.
Yu Yuan supported Li Guangzong, whose ribs were broken, and walked towards the bedroom, shouting, "Husband! What happened to you? The robbers ran away, why didn't you come to pick us up? Do you know that our son's ribs were broken by them..."
However, the moment he entered the bedroom, Yu Yuan's voice suddenly stopped.
Looking at the empty bedroom, Yu Yuan was stunned and seemed unable to react.
She frowned slightly, turned around and looked at Li Mengdi, and asked her with a dazed look: "Mengdi, where are your father and your grandmother? Why can't I see them? Where are they?"
Li Mengdi's eyes dimmed when she heard that. She pursed her lips and walked into the bedroom without saying a word.
Facing Yu Yuan's doubtful gaze, Li Mengdi raised her head with sadness in her eyes that she had been trying hard to brew. She looked at Yu Yuan and said softly, "Mom, you have to hold on..."
When Yu Yuan saw her like this, she suddenly felt an ominous premonition in her heart!
She held Li Mengdi's hand tightly and asked anxiously: "Mengdi, what happened? Tell us quickly!"
Li Mengdi took a deep breath, lowered her eyes to look at the floor, hiding the emotions in her eyes, and said softly: "... Dad and grandma... are both dead."
Just a few words were like a bolt from the blue, making Yu Yuan's face turn extremely pale in an instant. Even Guangzong seemed to be frightened silly. The two of them just stared at Li Mengdi blankly.
Seeing that her mother and brother were so frightened that they didn't say anything, Li Mengdi took a deep breath and continued, "After the kidnappers took you two away, they killed your father and grandmother and threw their bodies out of the window... They were going to kill me too, but a neighbor heard the noise and rushed in, and saved me."
The room suddenly fell into a dead silence. After a moment, Yu Yuan suddenly burst into a heart-wrenching cry: "Ah! How could this happen!"
Then, as if she had used up all her strength, she fell to her knees, leaned forward, and hugged Li Guangzong beside her tightly with both hands, crying: "How could your father die like this! My son, how can I live with you alone!"
Li Guangzong was held tightly in Yu Yuan's arms. He didn't cry, but he seemed to be in a daze. His lips moved but he couldn't speak.
Li Mengdi watched the two children hugging each other with cold eyes, but she comforted them: "Mom, don't be sad, Dad and grandma are gone, but we still have to live well..."
However, Yu Yuan totally ignored what Li Mengdi said. She just hugged Li Guangzong tightly and wailed non-stop.
Li Mengdi was annoyed by her crying. She thought for a moment and said, "Mom, you are crying too loudly. If others hear it and know that Dad is gone and we are left with only an orphan and a widower, I'm afraid someone will break into our house!"
After hearing what Li Mengdi said, Yu Yuan stopped crying. She swallowed back her sobs with great effort, making a "Ga--" sound.
Thinking of her dead husband and mother-in-law, Yu Yuan said to Li Mengdi in a trembling voice: "Then...then the bodies of your father and your grandmother..."
Thinking that the bodies of her husband and mother-in-law were lying downstairs, Yu Yuan felt a little panicked.
Li Mengdi sighed and said, "Mom, it's snowing hard outside now. We can't get out and the police can't get here. Let's wait until the cold weather is over. When the cold weather is over, we can find a way to bury Dad and Grandma."
As soon as Li Mengdi finished speaking and Yu Yuan hadn't said anything yet, Li Guangzong next to her suddenly moved.
He broke free from Yu Yuan's arms, ran to Li Mengdi, and punched and kicked her, shouting as he beat her: "You money-loser! I want my grandma! I want my dad! You money-loser! Why didn't you die? I'm going to beat you to death!"
