Chapter 1033: Slow And Long-lasting
“This is all your fault, you stupid woman. If you hadn’t gone around looking for trouble, we wouldn’t have ended up this way.”
Li Wei vented all his anger onto Madam Li.
He continued slapping Madam Li a few times without giving any explanation.
Madam Li was completely dazed from the slaps and could not react to what was happening.
Li Tong’er was scared out of her wits by what she saw.
When she realized what was happening, she immediately ran forward to stop him. “Father, what are you doing?”
Li Wei got even angrier when he saw her. He pointed at her face and snarled, “Tell me, why did you choose to return? All of you give me nothing but trouble!”
Madam Li finally managed to regain her composure. She usually had a bad temper on a normal day; when she was slapped without reason, it made her even angrier.
When she saw Li Wei pointing at her daughter’s face and scolding her, she immediately ran forward and scratched his face without warning.
“How could you do this, Li Wei? Someone out there got on your nerves and you’re venting your anger on us? Do you think I’m so easy to bully?”
Li Wei was not caught off guard and his face was scratched forcefully, leaving his face with a few bright, red finger marks.
Li Wei hissed with pain and when he saw the vicious expression that foolish woman was wearing, he retaliated.
Everything that happened today was entirely her fault. Not only did she not reflect on her actions, but she had also gone as far as to physically hurt him.
This was blasphemy!
He lifted his hand to give her another slap. Before she was able to react, he grabbed her hair and pulled her toward the wall for good measure.
“I am going to divorce you, you shrew!”
The entire Li Family was in a state of chaos.
Li Tong’er watched as everything unfolded before her eyes. She felt exhausted and was at a loss. She had no idea whom she had to help.
As the Li Family descended into disarray, Lin Qingyuan entered the Palace and was chatting with Lu Liangwei while taking a seat in Grand Phoenix Palace.
Lu Liangwei was amused to see Lin Qingyuan with her poorly concealed excitement. She poured Lin Qingyuan some tea and said without blinking, “I can tell that you rushed into the Palace. Where did you go just now?”
“I was at Madam Gao’s holiday home.” Lin Qingyuan picked up her cup of tea and spoke in a somewhat mysterious tone.
“Oh.” Lu Liangwei darted a look at Lin Qingyuan and replied nonchalantly. She knew who Madam Gao was and had heard that her family was known to house many capable military men.
“Aren’t you going to ask me what happened at the Gao Family’s holiday home?” Lin Qingyuan held back the news of the gossip for quite a while, waiting for Lu Liangwei to ask about it. However, it looked like Lu Liangwei was not interested at all, and Lin Qingyuan could not resist saying it out loud.
“Go ahead if you want to share the gossip. I’ll try to be interested in it,” Lu Liangwei said in a tone that sounded like she was merely humoring Lin Qingyuan.
Lin Qingyuan pouted and complained, “Sometimes, I find you to be no fun at all!”
Even though they were about the same age, Lu Liangwei sometimes acted quite mature, which made Lin Qingyuan look childish in comparison.
Lu Liangwei darted her a look. “Well, do you want to share it with me or not? If not, I’m going to take a walk in the garden.”
“The imperial garden may be beautiful, but aren’t you tired of it when you take a walk there multiple times every day?” Lin Qingyuan found it slightly incredulous. Anyone would get tired of having the same delicacies every single day, even more so if the person was staying in the same place all the time.
Lin Qingyuan did not understand why Lu Liangwei could behave so calmly when she was the same age as her.
If she was the one locked up in the Palace instead, she might go crazy.
“Why would I get tired of it? The imperial garden is beautiful and huge. All the pretty and unique plants of the world can all be found here.” Lu Liangwei was honestly not tired of it. She always enjoyed the view of the imperial garden.
“I doubt it’s the imperial garden’s view that’s interesting. It’s probably because His Majesty always accompanies you for your walks.” Lin Qingyuan pulled a face and purposely flashed a jealous look.
A smile appeared on Lu Liangwei’s lips. She did not deny it, simply rubbing her fingers against the cup on the table.
It was true that His Majesty would take the time to accompany her for walks in the garden every day, no matter how busy he was.
Sometimes, it was in the morning. Sometimes, it was in the evening.
She felt that life now was really pleasant. Even though there was less excitement, she preferred a life like this that was slow and long-lasting.
