The old man’s body shook. Then he slowly turned around, tears running down from his face.
“Li’er, thank God you came back to me!”
Hu Li pressed his head against the ground. He had missed too much in the last three years. His father had become so old that he looked like a different person from before…
However, no matter how much he suffered, he bore the hardship alone. Although he knew his son was doing well in the Academy, he didn’t want to disturb him.
Yun Luofeng and Yun Xiao stood silently behind Hu Li, without disturbing him. They knew that at this moment, Hu Li needed to vent his inner guilt and pain!
“Get up.”
The old man walked up to Hu Li on his crutch and helped him up.
Finally understanding each other, the father and son cried on each other’s shoulder.
“Li ‘er, are this young master and the lady your friends?” The old man wiped tears from his eyes and looked at Yun Luofeng and Yun Xiao.
Hu Li nodded, “She is called Yun Luofeng, and she is my classmate at the West Province Academy and the disciple of five elders of the Academy. As to this young master, he is called Yun Xiao and he is Yun Luofeng’s husband. I lost to Yun Luofeng, so as I promised, I will serve her for ten years. Now I left the Academy with her to start a new journey!”
To Yun Luofeng the old man gratefully said, “As a matter of fact, I have long known that Li’er dislikes being restrained. He is uninhibited and enjoys freedom. The West Province Academy was only a temporary foothold for him. He stayed at the Academy because he was afraid I couldn’t find him. Now because of you, he regained the confidence to chase his dream. I’d like to thank you for this.”
Not speaking, Yun Luofeng glanced at the old man’s leg and then asked in a low voice, “Is there something wrong with your leg?”
The old man nodded with a wry smile, “Yes. When I treated a patient, he suddenly died, so his family broke my leg. I could have had a fifty percent chance to heal my leg, but… I gave all my money to the patient’s family and owed a lot of debts, so I couldn’t afford the medicine. In the end, my bones decayed and there was no chance for me to stand up again.”
“Father, I have money. I can buy you the medicine.”
Hu Li got up from the ground, took out his space ring and put all his sliver tickets into the old man’s hand.
“Go and get the medicine.”
The old man shook his head, “I may have had a fifty percent chance to heal it when it was just broken, but now the chance isn’t even one to ten!”
Hu Li’s head hung down. He clenched the space ring in his hand and his heart ached. If he were in the Luohua City those days, his father wouldn’t have been bullied like that. If he had never left his family, it wouldn’t have happened to his father…
It was all his fault!
Hu Li was going to hit his head with all his strength and try to break it.
“Brother!”
Startled, Hu Lin rushed forward and grabbed Hu Li’s hand. “What are you doing? No one blames you. Besides, it was Father who didn’t allow me to tell you about it, and you have nothing to do with it.”
“Let me go!”
Hu Li struggled out of Hu Lin’s grasp. Just when Hu Lin was going to stop him again, an indifferent voice came from the side.
“Let him go. Let him hit himself if he wants. I’ll bury him if he wants to die!”
Hearing this, Hu Lin angrily turned his head and asked, “Yun Luofeng, what do you mean?”
