Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 40: It's hard to accept

"Butler Xu, long time no see!"

Xu Shounian heard Lin Beixuan's voice coming from behind him, raised his head stiffly, and asked puzzledly: "Since you have successfully escaped, why did you come back?"

"It's just that I'm still a little bit disappointed." Lin Beixuan said in a flat tone.

He had no feelings towards the Ruan family, and after working hard to block the ghosts for the Ruan family for a whole night, not only did he get injured, but he was also remembered by the Ninth Aunt.

But what did the Ruan family do in the end?

They lured him into the morgue and tied him up, then made him a substitute for the third young master of the Ruan family.

If the Third Young Master was a virtuous man who brought benefits to the people of the village, he would rather die for the Third Young Master once, but the other party was a rotten man who did all kinds of bad things.

Lin Beixuan was not willing to die for such a person.

"When I was tied up by you, I thought in my heart that I would seek justice from you."

"I should have killed you right there, instead of letting you go." Xu Shounian said in a hoarse voice. He staggered to stand up from the ground, but finally sat back down, sighing with a smile.

"You have seen the current state of the Ruan family. What can you ask for back?"

He glanced at the corpses in the corners and reached out to stroke Xiao Shitou's cold head.

This was the Ruan family where he had lived all his life, but now it was gone. He had failed to live up to the master's trust in him, failed to protect the Ruan family, and failed to save the third young master.

Lin Beixuan sneered and placed one hand on Xu Shounian's head.

"Old man, you still want to scare me. To be honest, I am very happy that the Ruan family is gone. I put that rockery in the courtyard as a decoration. Can you tell me how many people are in it?"

"You're not going to tell me you don't know?"

Xu Shounian fell silent upon hearing this. As the steward of the Ruan Mansion, how could he hide the sudden appearance of a rockery in the courtyard from his eyes? He just pretended not to care.

The Third Young Master is the last bloodline of the Ruan family to continue the family line. No matter how big a mistake he makes, he must cover for him, even if it is his perverted hobby.

Seeing that Xu Shounian didn't answer, Lin Beixuan snorted coldly.

Not answering means knowing the answer. There is an entire rockery filled with broken corpses and arms. How many innocent people must have been killed.

He never thought of himself as a good person. In the real world, he would not help an old man or woman who fell down. When he encountered injustice, the first thing he thought of was to save himself, and he might even turn around and run away.

But this doesn't mean that he wouldn't feel angry when he saw so many innocent people die for no reason.

Stuff people into the wall, make them into a rockery...

The third young master can no longer be described as a pervert, he is a demon.

In his eyes, Butler Xu had contributed a lot to the current situation of the Ruan family.

"We have to thank that old lady for getting rid of you troublemakers in Huangshi Village." Lin Beixuan sighed.

"she?"

Xu Shounian suddenly burst into laughter and couldn't help shaking his head: "She is a lunatic who is even scarier than the Third Young Master!"

"You don't know her origins, right? Let me tell you, she is Mr. Ruan's third wife, the mistress of the Ruan family, and the grandmother of the third young master."

"..."

Lin Beixuan was really shocked this time. He had guessed many identities of the other party, but he never expected that she was the mistress of the Ruan family, and even the grandmother of the third young master.

In other words, the Third Young Master is her grandson.

Her grandson was about to inherit everything from the Ruan family, but she destroyed it all. "Why on earth did this happen?"

Lin Beixuan was puzzled, and considering the relationship between the other party and the old beggar, he was even more confused.

Even if she felt resentment in her heart, after so many years, she had already become the mistress of the Ruan family, and her grandson was about to take over the Ruan family. In the end, everything in the Ruan family would belong to her. Why should she destroy all of it in the end?

With so many lives in the Ruan family, are they worthless in her eyes?

Lin Beixuan looked at Xiao Shitou's head leaning peacefully against Xu Shounian's legs, with deep confusion in his eyes.

Xu Shounian was also looking at Pei Juan's thin back at this time, feeling sad: "Maybe... Master Ruan was wrong!"

"I remember that Master Ruan was young back then, not as mature as he is today, and was a dashing and charming young man."

"When I went out for fun, I happened to fall in love with a girl selling tofu on the street, but I didn't expect that she already had someone she loved. But it didn't matter. The Ruan family was wealthy and used money to bribe the girl's parents and forcibly 'bought' the girl from her parents."

"At that time, a ragged little hoodlum tried to stop them. Luckily, they received the news in advance and blocked the hoodlum in the alley and beat him half to death. Then they disguised themselves as the hoodlum and watched the girl get into the bridal sedan, so that she would give up."

"What's funny is that when the girl first married into the Ruan family, she didn't want to sleep with the master. The master didn't force her, but thought of a way to starve her and only gave her a little water every day."

"But the girl was stubborn. Even though she was starving to death, she still refused to let the master touch her body. This time the master was very angry and tortured the girl severely: "Once you enter the Ruan Mansion, you are mine. You care so much about your innocence. I want to destroy it with my own hands."

"That night, the whole house was filled with the girl's cries. The master knew she didn't want to do it, so he simply broke her limbs and made her lie in bed 'properly'. The next day, he asked the Danyi Sect to reattach the girl's hands and feet."

"After that, whenever the girl didn't want to, the master would do this, until one day, the girl saw the hoodlum begging on the street. From that day on, the girl officially became the third wife of the Ruan family."

"The girl's name is Pei Juan."

……

Memories appeared before Xu Shounian's eyes like mirrors, recording every detail of his life in the Ruan family.

He had been the most capable servant of Mr. Ruan since he was a child, and many things were handled by him. The matter about Pei Juan and that little gangster was originally just a very small matter in his mind.

The Ruan family is the largest family in Huangshi Village. They even have connections in the county government office. For them, the servants who follow the master, bullying the untouchables is as common as eating and drinking.

If one day they are not bullied anymore, they will feel uncomfortable.

"Cough cough..."

Xu Shounian covered his mouth and coughed twice, his palms were full of blood.

Lin Beixuan listened to him silently, and roughly understood the cause and effect of the matter.

just.

"Poor little Stone, he still has a good impression of you!"

Lin Beixuan touched Xiao Shitou's cold cheek. He had finally gotten rid of hunger, but he didn't expect to enter a den of wolves that would eat people without leaving any bones.

Xu Shounian smiled disdainfully: "You pity him, but don't you think about who you are?"

Xu Shounian had learned some tricks and had discovered that Lin Beixuan's body was abnormal. The Yin energy had completely invaded every part of his body and he was in a state of being half-dead.

Lin Beixuan paid no attention to Xu Shounian's ridicule, but looked at Madam Li's hand reaching out to the talisman on the back of the infant spirit's head not far away, and sighed softly.

"Thank you for telling me the story, please get on your way!"

As he spoke, Lin Beixuan twisted the hand covering Xu Shounian's head with force, and with the added strength of nearly 5 points, only a slight "click" sound was heard, and the old face instantly spun behind him.
