Chapter 201 Xiang Minghou’s Nightmare
Xiang Minghou stared blankly at the ceiling of the bed, his mother's expression holding the knife flashing through his mind. Even now he still trembled when he thought about it.
While he was comatose, he seemed to have had a very long dream. In the dream, there were his father, mother, and younger brother. It was the day his father died. It was raining heavily at night, and he was pushed into the bottom of the well in the backyard.
The water flooded over his head. He screamed and called for help. When he was about to suffocate, he saw a figure appear at the wellhead...
The man in the well just looked at him. The rain was so heavy that his vision was blurred. He couldn't see the other person's figure clearly. He could only hear the cautious man's laughter...
Just as the well water was about to swallow him, a flash of lightning flashed by, and the figure at the well mouth had a hideous expression. That face... that face...
Xiang Minghou shivered all over. It was her mother.
He was indeed pushed down the well on the day his father died. He thought the figure he saw before he fell into a coma was an illusion after he was rescued, but he never thought that the figure would be his mother.
The dream was so real that it overlapped with the scenes in his memory.
Was she the one who was at the wellhead at that time...
Xiang Minghou was struggling to breathe, and regardless of whether the dream was true or not, it was enough to terrify him to the extreme.
"Daddy."
In a trance, Xiang Minghou heard a soft and sticky voice.
The voice drove away the chill from his body and gradually soothed the fear in his heart.
Thinking of that fair face and the little guy's bright smile, a sense of tenacity emerged in his heart. Too many things happened in his childhood that always woke him up in the middle of the night.
He would never let his daughter go through the same experience as he did.
Xiang Minghou thought that he had already made plans in his mind.
"Rowan."
"General." Luo Wen stepped forward.
"Ahem...you go to Zhuzhou tomorrow, and please...please ask the head of the Xiang family to come to Kyoto." Xiang Minghou said.
"General, what do you want to do?" Luo Wen wondered.
"Quit the clan."
Such a family made him feel disheartened.
Luo Wen was surprised at first, but then he understood. It was just that leaving the tribe was a very serious matter in Beili, and not having a tribe membership would make people despise you.
"General, don't you think about it?"
Xiang Minghou shook his head and said that leaving the clan was the best option. Since she didn't regard him as her son, then... just let him go.
"Daddy."
As the voice sounded, Ye Qianning pushed the door open and entered the room.
When Xiang Minghou turned around, the little baby had already run to the bed.
"Daddy, you're awake. How do you feel?" Ye Qianning stood up with his hands just enough to rest on the edge of the bed.
Xiang Minghou reached out and grabbed her chubby little hand, his voice a little weak: "It's all fine. Why are you still coming here so late?"
"I had a dream. I dreamed that daddy woke up and Fatty came. I didn't expect that daddy really wanted to wake up." Ye Qianning rubbed his eyes with a smile on his face.
Xiang Minghou also laughed when he heard this, and pulled the wound and groaned.
"Dad, don't move and don't laugh. You can't make any big movements now." Ye Qianning pouted.
"Okay." Xiang Minghou responded.
Ye Qianning grabbed his hand tightly and said after a moment of silence, "Dad, I heard you talking to Luo Wen just now."
Xiang Minghou thought of her mother's attitude and felt a little apologetic: "Don't worry, Fatty, I'm here. I will never let you suffer any injustice."
"I won't feel wronged as long as my father is here."
"Dad actually knew everything, but he just didn't want to face it. Now he's completely awake."
"None of this is Dad's fault. It's not worth it to leave the clan." Ye Qianning knew how important it was to leave the clan in ancient times. If anyone had to leave, it should be them. Why should Dad leave too?
Xiang Minghou sighed weakly, "Father has made his decision. Tomorrow I will report to the Emperor and ask him to take over the General's residence."
