Chapter 722: Although They Won't Succeed, It's Still Extremely Irritating

Just then, Fu Yan Cheng and Liu's father returned with a cartload of firewood. Hearing Zhuifeng's cries, both felt concern rise in their hearts and quickened their steps.

Liu's father's face darkened: "What are you doing?"

Ge Pozi, who had just finished scolding someone, was startled by this sudden voice.

After the panic passed, she quickly regained her composure: "Second son, what is your attitude?"

Hearing these words, Liu's father's face grew even colder: "We have already severed ties. Why do you still come to our door to humiliate my wife? The whole village knows that after so many years, Zhao Lamei has finally conceived again. This pregnancy came at such great difficulty. How great must your grudge against me be that you would come to cause trouble at this very moment?"

Thinking of his purpose for coming today, Liu's old man tugged at his old wife's hem from behind, signaling that the matter at hand was more important: "Second son, your mother was just furious and spoke out of anger. Don't take her words to heart."

But Liu's father was not moved: "I don't care what the situation is. Since we have severed ties, please stop disturbing our lives. Besides, Zhao Lamei is pregnant now and cannot afford to be angered."

Liu's father's words angered Liu's old man greatly: "Second son, no matter what, we are still your biological parents. Do you really want to be so heartless?"

The fists at Liu's father's side clenched in anger. He glared fiercely at the old couple from the Liu family, thinking: They pull this same trick every time. It is truly annoying.

He was about to open his mouth to refute them.

But then he heard Chuxue's voice from behind: "You have used the same excuse for thirty or forty years. You don't feel tired, but we are sick of hearing it."

Without waiting for the old couple to react, she quickly stepped up beside them and lowered her voice: "Besides, do you dare swear to heaven: Are you truly my father's biological parents?"

Seeing them about to refute, she immediately added: "If you dare swear, then say: If even half a word is false, may our descendants die a miserable death."

These words made the old couple from the Liu family step back in fright.

Liu's old wife recovered first: "How can you be so vicious?"

Chuxue looked at them with a half-smile: "Only those with guilty hearts think I am vicious. If you do not want to be despised, then behave yourselves."

It seemed the search for relatives needed to be accelerated; otherwise, if the old couple from the Liu family came like this a few more times, they would be in a very passive position.

Although they would not let them succeed, it was still extremely irritating.

The old couple from the Liu family exchanged a glance, suddenly panicked, and dared not stay any longer: "You do nothing but talk nonsense all day long. We will not stoop to your level."

Having said that, the two fled in disarray once again.

Chuxue's eyes were filled with nothing but disdain and contempt.

Fu Yan Cheng had undergone training. Although he had not heard every word of what Chuxue said in a lowered voice just now, he had caught most of it. Watching the old couple who had already run down the slope, he fell into thought: It seems this is the real reason why my father-in-law's family is so unwelcome.

Liu's father looked at Chuxue with confusion: "What did you say to them? I remember last time you also said something to them, and they..."

Chuxue signaled Fu Yan Cheng to unload the firewood, then pulled Liu's father into the courtyard.

She had originally planned to tell Liu's father after finding his relatives, but seeing the old couple's demeanor today, she feared that if she were not present, the couple would not fare well.

Liu's mother saw them enter: "Where are they?"

Chuxue pointed toward the village entrance: "They left."

Liu's mother was somewhat surprised: "They left so easily?"

She had thought they would have to make a huge scene, yet they left already?

Chuxue thought: Regarding Liu's father's origins, it is better not to tell Liu's mother for now. She is pregnant at an advanced age; there is no need to let her worry excessively about these matters and affect the child in her womb.
