Chapter 385 Your Hand

Li Luo sat beside her, put his arm around her shoulders, and let her bury her head in his arms.

"Be good, stop crying. It's none of your business."

From the first time she met Shang Wanwan, she felt that Shang Wanwan was very friendly.

It turns out that there is such a thing as destiny in this world.

Perhaps God had pity on the two sisters and could not bear to see them separated no matter what.

There must be a divine will in everything, Li Luo thought.

"Don't comfort me, I know. I lost my mother's paintings. She worked so hard for so many years. Those were her hard work."

She thought her grandfather loved her mother, but she never expected a father could be so cruel to his children.

She couldn't understand.

"No, my mother's spirit in heaven will bless us and her paintings."

Tears were falling down Li Luo's face without him realizing it.

What ridiculous self-consolation.

Compared to the other two, Chen Xin is even less optimistic.

The car stopped in front of a solemn four-story villa.

The bronze door was slightly open, and Chen Xin and her two siblings got out of the car and rushed straight in.

A servant saw them and rushed over to stop them.

"Who are you? This is a private residence. You are not allowed to enter."

"I'm here to see your grandfather."

Although Chen Xin is young, his expression is still scary when he frowns.

"The old man doesn't see visitors. You guys go quickly."

The servant looked very unfriendly and Li Luo got angry.

"We are not guests. We ask you old man to return our paintings."

There were still tears on Shang Wanwan's face.

"Please let the old man know that the three Chen children have come to see him and ask him to return our mother's paintings to us."

Although Shang Wanwan was raised by a Shang family, she received all the education she should have.

"Wanwan, stop talking nonsense to them."

Li Luo pulled Shang Wanwan and rushed inside.

They had only taken a few steps when they heard a few dogs barking, and then a servant released two large wolfhounds.

Li Luo was terrified. Chen Xin rushed to the two sisters and grabbed one of the dogs by the throat with her bare hands before the dogs could catch up with her, breaking its neck.

Shang Wanwan also kicked the dog that rushed towards her and Li Luo, and the dog was kicked far away.

The other dog died directly on the ground. The other one saw it and became a little scared.

After being kicked by Shang Wanwan again, he didn't dare to rush forward again. He stood on the side and barked at the three siblings.

"You little brats dared to come here and act wildly. You are just as uneducated as Chen."

An old voice sounded from far away.

The old man was leaning on a cane, followed by several bodyguards in black.

He took off his hat, revealing a head full of silver hair, and looked less energetic than before.

But his face was ferocious.

His eyes were staring at the three siblings with extremely sharp eyes.

“Where are my mother’s paintings?”

Chen Xin clenched his fists. If he wasn't an old man, he would have come to the door long ago.

"You came in and killed my dog, and you were still hoping to get the painting from that unfilial daughter. Logically, you three should at least call me grandpa. You are such a loser, and you gave birth to a bunch of losers."

The old man scolded the entire Chen family.

Chen Xin was very angry, and her originally fair face turned red.

He was angry.

"Old man, return the painting as soon as possible. It was given to us by our mother. Why did you take it away?"

Li Luo was not that polite.

"Hmph, your mother? My blood flows in her body, and everything about her is mine. Even without your bones and flesh, I have neither you nor me.

You little bastards, you have no manners at all. I tell you, I will not return these paintings, and they will soon be reduced to ashes."

The old man had a proud look on his face.

Chen Xin clenched his fists instantly, veins on the back of his hands throbbing, and he had the urge to kill someone.

"What do you want?"

Shang Wanwan became anxious, and a bad premonition arose.

I saw several men in black behind the old man carrying the painting out of the yard and throwing it into the open space in the yard like garbage.

The air was filled with the smell of gasoline, and the bodyguard poured the gasoline that he had prepared long ago onto the painting.

Once the liquid got on the frame, it meant that even if the painting was recovered, it would be useless.

"Stop it, stop it now."

Li Luo rushed over like a mad leopard and pushed the bodyguard who was pouring gasoline on the painting.

Chen Xin also ran over, punched the bodyguards in the face, and got entangled with them in a fight.

Shang Wanwan even went to grab the painting.

The old man stood by and watched all this coldly.

"What are you standing there for? Light a fire."

"Stop it, Grandpa. Mom is your daughter. How can you bear to destroy her life's hard work?"

Shang Wanwan screamed heartbreakingly.

"Daughter? I treated her like my own daughter. I never let her suffer since she was a child. I even arranged for her to marry a rich man so that she would have no worries in her life. How did she repay me?

Running off with your poor father has disgraced me. I can't hold my head up in front of all my friends.

She ran away from the engagement party, leaving thousands of guests behind. She was a rich lady who had never been involved in sex, and she followed Chen Rongsheng around everywhere. She had to suffer, and that was her own fault.

Did she draw these pictures? I spent a lot of money to raise her since she was a child, and she made her beautiful and delicate, but she ruined herself like this.

The old man got so angry that he picked up a painting from the ground and smashed it to pieces.

"ah--"

Li Luo and Shang Wanwan screamed at the same time. Chen Xin had been controlled, with his hands twisted behind his back and two bodyguards escorting him.

Two fists cannot defeat four hands, and he was finally subdued.

The old man held the lighter himself, his face grim.

"God couldn't stand her unfilial behavior and took her life back. Now I'm just helping her by letting these paintings go to heaven to accompany her. Isn't it better than leaving them with you?"

The old man said something that made Shang Wanwan want to die, and mercilessly threw the burning lighter into the painting.

The paintings soaked in gasoline caught fire instantly.

"No, don't burn Mom's paintings."

Shang Wanwan's eyes widened, and without paying any attention to the fire, she rushed in to grab the painting.

Her hand touched the wooden frame and her flesh smelled burnt.

"Wanwan, stop snatching."

Li Luo rushed over and pulled Shang Wanwan out of the fire.

But Shang Wanwan continued to rush into the fire like a madman.

"My mother's painting, my mother's painting. It's my fault. It's all my fault."

Shang Wanwan pushed Li Luo away with such force that Li Luo fell to the ground.

The old man looked at the three heartbroken children without any sympathy, but laughed out loud.

"This is what happens when you defy me. Did she think that death would solve all her problems? And you little bastards, I'm doing you a great favor by doing this. Get out of my house. I don't want to see any of you again."

The old man admired his masterpiece. Shang Wanwan reached out to the painting in the fire again and again. No matter how hard she tried, all she got in the end was rolling ashes.

"Wanwan, stop stealing the painting. Your hand, Wanwan, your hand——"
