Jiang Yilai gently broke free from his embrace, saw his serious expression, and shook her head.
"I can't answer your question. You know perfectly well that I won't make a choice."
"Then let me tell you, I am determined to kill him."
"At least tell me why."
Li Luyao said with a gloomy face, "Don't you know? My father's death was forced by Fu Nanxiao."
Jiang Yilai looked shocked and asked in confusion, "I remember you said before that your uncle passed away when you were in middle school. How could that be related to the Fu family?"
Li Luyao said angrily, "Back then, as the Li family's business expanded, it gradually affected the Fu family's status as the richest family. That old man colluded with other companies to suppress us."
Jiang Yilai could imagine the old man's evil deeds. A person who could kill even his great-grandson and not even spare his own relatives would certainly do the same to his enemies.
“That old man wanted to take over the Li family and drove my father to the brink of despair. He took me to plead for him, but instead he handed all the reins over to Fu Nanxiao and let him make the decision.”
Sensing his hatred, Jiang Yilai said, "But back then, Fu Nanxiao probably couldn't make the decision. The old man deliberately gave him this difficult problem."
“Even so, he could have advised the old man not to target our Li family back then, but he said we should acquire it. He said things like that without taking any responsibility, yet pushing others to their deaths, and he said them so easily.”
Jiang Yilai felt sorry for him, not expecting him to carry such hatred on his shoulders.
"Was it because of this that your uncle chose to end his own life?"
“My father didn’t want to die at all. Who would be willing to leave his wife and children behind? But the Fu family is pressing harder and harder. If my father doesn’t die, they will bankrupt the company and leave him with huge debts. In that case, he won’t be the only one to die.”
Jiang Yilai clenched her fists tightly, and could even picture those suffocating scenes, which made her feel even more sorry for Li Luyao.
No wonder I always felt there was an inexplicable fierceness about him; it turns out that this tragic memory turned him into this person.
Seeing his reddened eyes, Jiang Yilai leaned forward and put her hand on his shoulder.
Li Luyao choked up and said, "My father, in order to protect the company and also because he was worried that they would harm my mother and me, chose to commit suicide when he had nowhere else to turn. They made me lose my loved ones."
After hearing all this, Jiang Yilai finally understood why he was so hostile to Fu Nanxiao; it turned out that the seeds of hatred had been sown long ago.
Despite this, the real culprit was not him, but the instigator, Old Master Fu.
“I was also very angry after hearing about this, but Fu Nanxiao is not the culprit. Moreover, he was also persecuted by his family back then, so what he said should have been at the behest of Old Master Fu.”
"You're trying to excuse him. If it were him back then, the old man would have launched a full-scale attack."
"But he was about the same age as you back then, and he didn't understand the implications at all. He certainly didn't know about the old man's scheme."
"Whether he knows it or not, this whole thing started because of him, and I will never let him get away with it."
“Lu Yao, I understand your feelings, but every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. Your sword should be pointed at the real murderer.”
Li Luyao looked at her with some resentment. What she was saying now was just to exonerate Fu Nanxiao.
He stared intently at Jiang Yilai and said firmly, "What if I insist on going against him?"
