Butler Li was completely bewildered.
Settling accounts? What accounts? Could it be…
"Everyone, move aside, so you don't get accidentally hurt again."
Yu Shuang spoke, and it seemed to have a special kind of magic.
The others, dragging their injuries, did as they were told, almost as if possessed.
Only after it spread out and stuck to the wall did I realize with surprise:
Damn, how come they're so obedient?!
Old Zhang and Ruan Siyao, in particular, found the old lady increasingly eerie and terrifying.
The rest of the Zhao family were greatly puzzled. What did the old lady want to settle with Steward Li? Could it be that the old lady's possession was related to Steward Li?
Yes, they say he's the culprit.
Although Butler Li was somewhat confused, he remained as calm and gentlemanly as ever.
Deep down, he believed that he had made thorough preparations for some things, and as long as he refused to admit it, no one could do anything to him.
He was prepared to face the questions.
"I wonder what kind of score the old woman wants to settle with me..."
"bump!"
As soon as Butler Li finished speaking, he was pulled aside with a stick.
Unable to maintain her usual composure any longer, she stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Uh! This old lady has no sportsmanship!
Who starts attacking right away?! At least let him die knowing why!
Even with his good temper and ability to endure, he couldn't help but get angry after being hit by that blow. Just as he was about to argue, his pupils suddenly contracted...
"ah!!"
Suddenly, a barrage of clubs came crashing down on him.
Yu Shuang didn't care about anything else; she just wanted to catch the culprit and beat him up first.
"Don't you have any idea what kind of accounts you're talking about?"
Butler Li was unable to dodge in time and screamed in pain.
"Awooo!!...The old lady has gone mad! Someone come quick!...Awooo!!...I refuse to accept this..."
Butler Li was very indignant. Who would willingly accept being wrongly accused for no reason?
I've never seen such an unreasonable old lady before. She wasn't like this before either.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Aww! I give up... Stop hitting me... You have to let me die knowing why!... Aww..."
Yu Shuang, in a moment of great mercy, let him die knowing why:
"Keep pretending, keep pretending... Aren't you quite good at pretending? You've held a grudge ever since your son accidentally fell into the water, haven't you? It must have been tough for you to endure all these years of humiliation. You've finally got this good opportunity for revenge, haven't you..."
Butler Li's expression changed drastically.
The old lady already knows?
impossible.
He had considered this possibility, but he had also made thorough preparations to clear himself of any wrongdoing.
But who could have predicted that the old lady would be so unreasonable, grabbing him and beating him mercilessly without saying a word...
"Madam, please let me explain. There must be some misunderstanding..."
Butler Li felt it was necessary to try again.
As he slowly got up from the ground, his face bruised and swollen, a dark shadow flew over like a sharp sword.
"Bang!" It hit him squarely on the head and sent him flying back down.
It was a small, exquisite, vintage bronze mirror, the very tool he used to exact his revenge on the little devil.
His heart sank, but he still maintained an innocent expression, pretending to be stupid.
In short, he insisted on his innocence, claiming that the mirror wasn't delivered to the old lady through his channels, and that without any evidence, he was truly wronged…
Yu Shuang couldn't help but admire his moving acting skills. He immediately extracted the vengeful ghost imprisoned in his sea of consciousness.
“He doesn’t admit it. One of you two is lying. Come on, come on, confront each other.”
Yu Shuang grabbed the ghost by the neck, dragged it directly to Butler Li, and threw it at him.
"Ah!! A ghost!..."
Faced with that hideous and terrifying ghost face, Butler Li's legs went weak with fear.
I had only gotten up a short while ago, but I lay back down on the ground, terrified of being near that vengeful ghost, and shrank back in fear.
Although he knew this thing existed, he had never been this close to it before.
Just thinking about that dark and eerie sensation gives me goosebumps.
The vengeful ghost had already been taught a lesson and was very well-behaved after being released.
She glared venomously at Butler Li. If it weren't for that bastard meddling and insisting on sacrificing herself to make a deal with him...
It is still diligently cultivating in its lair, which is why it didn't have to come out early and almost lose its life.
"It's him, it's him, it's definitely him! He's the one who brought me out from the Zhao family's ancestral graves...blah blah blah..."
"Better to die than me," the vengeful ghost easily betrayed Steward Li, using his eloquence to shift all the blame onto him...
Butler Li: ...! ! ?
