He Sisi, kneeling on the ground, was shaking like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind. Hu Meizhen and He Zongming beside her were all pale. If she had not been secretly controlled by a force, she would have committed suicide long ago. The fate she suffered in He Zongyan's hands was far more terrible than he had expected. She was truly in a state of being unable to live or die.
I can't even think of dying and ending it all.
He Zongyan could even kill He Sisi, who once called him father, let alone people like them.
Just then, footsteps were suddenly heard outside.
Everyone in the hall looked over at the same time, only to see an expressionless He Zongyan walking in with Guan Wanwan side by side. One was decisive and ruthless, the other was weak. But when the two walked together, it gave people the feeling that He Zongyan was less imposing.
At this time, He Zongyan was indeed very cautious, fearing that Wanwan would be unhappy in the slightest.
"Get over here." He Zongyan cursed at He Zongkun as he came in: "Look carefully, if your eyes are useless, just dig them out."
Until now, He Zongyan has not completely given up the decision to dig out his brother's eyes.
He was so blind that he didn't care if he hurt himself, but he caused Wanwan and Xiaobai so much suffering, which was simply unforgivable. Even if he was his own brother, he still had to pay the price.
He Zongkun hurried over and knelt down in front of He Zongyan and Guan Wanwan. He was tortured by self-blame, shame and other pressures. "Sister-in-law, this is all my fault. I was blind and fooled. I recognized the wrong person and failed to complete what my brother asked me to do."
As he spoke, he pulled out a sharp dagger from his sleeve. The tip of the knife was against his neck, and a trickle of blood oozed out. However, he seemed to feel no pain and shouted loudly: "This is all my fault. Please don't blame me, my sister-in-law and niece. I am willing to take all responsibility."
Everyone in the hall stood up in shock, some wanted to stop them, while others sighed helplessly.
Someone even murmured to himself, "This is the general's family. They are cruel to the enemy and even crueler to their own people." After saying that, he sneered and looked at the row of people kneeling on the ground, with both contempt and sympathy in his eyes.
Even He Zongyan's beloved brother had to pay the price with his life, dying to atone for his crime, not to mention the instigator. Once He Zongkun died, the entire He family would not blame He Zongyan, but would place all their hatred on these few people on the ground.
Not only them, but also their relatives, friends and ancestors who they care about for eighteen generations will not escape.
This is the He family, the He family that no one dares to mess with.
No one stopped him. Although He Zongyan was a little surprised, his eyes were still cold. Since his brother chose to die to atone for his sins, all he could do was to help him. This was the tradition of the He family, and it would only be a relief for his brother.
Guan Jibai was so frightened that he was stunned, his eyes wide open in horror and he forgot to react.
Among all the people present, it was Guan Jibai, the person who should least have stopped it, who frowned. It was not because she was soft-hearted, because the hatred in her heart for those who had hurt Guan Wanwan and her daughter would not have diminished in the slightest, but because she thought of the enthusiastic and cheerful He Minmin.
Guan Jibai secretly pulled Yan Xin, and Yan Xin pointed his finger, and the dagger in He Zongkun's hand fell to the ground with a snap. There was still a bloody wound on his collarbone, and the glaring blood flowed all over his clothes, which was shocking.
Guan Wanwan finally reacted, her body softening as He Zongyan hugged her in time. Her whole body leaned weakly in He Zongyan's arms, and she had no strength to stand up. Her cheeks were pale, and she was obviously frightened.
