Zhao's lobby.
Hank Zorn and two rows of clan elders sat upright, their faces ashen and gloomy.
Downstairs, Riichi Zorn stood quietly like a stone statue, with strands of messy long hair covering half of his face. The blood flowing between his fingers was redder and dazzling than his groom's clothes.
"A disgrace, a great disgrace."
The eldest elder of the Zhao family shouted violently and smashed the table into pieces with one palm.
"We've arrived, but Kalle Lashbrook hasn't shown up yet."
"It's really abominable to use Heavenly Sect as a shield."
"The matter has come to this, there is no point in talking more."Hank Zorn said in a deep voice and stopped the angry shouting in the hall.
"It's a child who has brought shame to the Zhao family."
Riichi Zorn knelt down with a bang.
"I don't blame you, get up and talk."Hank Zorn's smile was quite far-fetched.
"He is no longer a martial artist. He should have been removed from his position as Young Master earlier to avoid being lectured by outsiders." The Great Elder glanced at Riichi Zorn and then at Hank Zorn, "Master of the clan, how long will you continue to be partial?"
"Are you in such a hurry to let your own son take over?"Hank Zorn snorted coldly.
"Is it possible that the Zhao family should be handed over to a useless son like you?" The eldest elder suddenly shouted loudly, and many clan elders also expressed their stern expressions, pointing their fingers at Hank Zorn, quite intent on forcing him into the palace.
"Wait..."
"I am willing to give up my position as young master."
Riichi Zorn Yun said plainly, he has become a broken body, and there is no point in dominating the position of young master. The most important thing is that he does not want to make it difficult for his father. The head of the dignified clan has been too protective, which has already aroused the anger of the public.
"You are self-aware." The great elder sat upright for a moment.
"enough."
Hank Zorn scolded coldly, a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and the majesty of the clan leader was fully revealed.
The Great Elder was also very powerful and unfailing. After being suppressed for more than ten years, he had already thought the opposite.
boom!
The tit-for-tat confrontation between a great elder and a family head made the already depressing atmosphere almost solidify.
"Riichi Zorn."
When the situation was tense, I suddenly heard a call.
Elvira Lashbrook came, holding on to the wall and carefully groping her way into the lobby.
Seeing this, the faces of all the elders suddenly turned pale, and they thought of the shame of the Zhao family. They had never been so humiliated in so many years. If the situation was not inappropriate, they would definitely kill Liu Ruxin and chop Elvira Lashbrook with one palm.
Hank Zorn was about to speak but stopped, and sighed even though he was angry.
This girl was also a pitiful person. She was born to Kalle Lashbrook drunken maid. She was blind at birth. Kalle Lashbrook was furious. In his opinion, it was the lowly maid who had tarnished the noble blood of the Liu family.
Because of this, he never paid attention to them.
Elvira Lashbrook's mother died in depression, and Kalle Lashbrook never even took a look at her.
Her mother was despicable, she was blind, and she was a weakling with no pulse. She had been neglected and bullied since she was a child. Rather than being a young lady of the Liu family, she was more like a servant, or even worse than a servant. If it wasn't for the sake of face, Kalle Lashbrook would have kicked her out of the Liu family long ago.
Today's wedding was apparently about marrying off her daughter, but in fact, it was about abandoning her.
Her life is a good example of what it means to be miserable.
Hank Zorn looked at Riichi Zorn. Regardless of the conspiracy, Elvira Lashbrook was indeed married to him.
Since she is married, she is his wife. It is up to him to decide whether to stay or stay.
Riichi Zorn said nothing, stood up slowly, and pulled Elvira Lashbrook out of the lobby. Perhaps he walked too fast, and Elvira Lashbrook failed to keep up. He almost fell down several times, and his little hand was so painful when it was held, but he was timid. Dare to speak.
To the back door of Zhao's house.
Riichi Zorn stopped, pushed Elvira Lashbrook out, and said coldly, "You...are divorced."
"Don't drive me away."
Elvira Lashbrook was filled with tears, as if she was frightened, she turned around gropingly, but the door was closed.
"Please, don't drive me away."
In the darkness, Ji Jin cried and begged, shouting heartbreakingly.
Riichi Zorn ignored him and drifted away. Although he knew it was not Elvira Lashbrook fault, she was a member of the Liu family after all.
He hates the Liu family, and he hates everyone in the Liu family.
Among them, the blind bride was also included.
When he returned to the bridal chamber, he closed the door tightly and poured jugs of wine into his mouth desperately.
The night gradually deepened, and everything was silent.
Under the moonlight, I could hear the door creaking, and Riichi Zorn came out again and went to the back door.
Outside the door, Elvira Lashbrook huddled at the foot of the wall, hugging her knees, shivering like a beggar.
"I know, I am a blind man and not worthy of being your wife."
The cold night was full of brides murmuring and choking.
Perhaps, unknown to everyone, her biggest wish was to take a look at the man named Riichi Zorn, to see the big brother who had faced many killers and held her tightly in his arms.
That warmth was the most touching thing in the world that made her want to cry.
Riichi Zorn came and saw that Elvira Lashbrook was still there, and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Such a heart-wrenching scene, I would rather hide outside the Zhao family and cry than go back to the cold Liu family.
Once upon a time, he also regarded Elvira Lashbrook as a relative because she was Heloise Lashbrook's sister.
But he still underestimated Heloise Lashbrook. Not only did he play with the conspiracy, but he also played with the family relationship. He used extremely dirty methods to turn his sister into a victim and burial object of this conspiracy.
You can imagine how helpless this girl felt the moment she was put on the sedan chair.
"If you get married, get married and treat my sister well." Her words echoed in his ears again.
This sounds extremely ridiculous.
Perhaps, in the eyes of the proud girl of the day, it is natural for a blind man to be paired with a loser.
Finally, he reached out his hand and pulled Elvira Lashbrook.
This poor girl will be his last kindness to the Liu family.
Elvira Lashbrook choked with tears, holding Riichi Zorn's hand tightly, for fear of being abandoned again. His hand was like her mother's embrace, very warm, and would be the only inch of light in her dark world.
Back in the bridal chamber, Riichi Zorn pulled a quilt and spread it on the floor. He slept on the floor and Elvira Lashbrook slept on the bed.
In the darkness, he laughed at himself.
In the romantic bridal chamber, the groom is useless and the bride is blind, a match made in heaven.
What a wonderful irony!
This is all thanks to that proud daughter of heaven, who ordered this mandarin duck book and held the thread of this mortal world.
"Riichi Zorn?"
Elvira Lashbrook's call, timid and clear, broke the tranquility of the bridal chamber.
Riichi Zorn could hear it. Although his eyes were open, he was as silent as ice and did not respond at all.
"Riichi Zorn?"
Elvira Lashbrook called again.
After not hearing an echo for a long time, she was sure that Riichi Zorn had fallen asleep. She then got out of bed and groped in the darkness. She took every step carefully and did not stop until she touched Riichi Zorn's body.
Riichi Zorn Yun frowned, wondering what Elvira Lashbrook was going to do.
"My mother said that there is reincarnation in the world. Good people go to heaven and bad people go to hell."
Elvira Lashbrook murmured softly.
As she spoke, she took off a pendant hanging from her neck, a crescent-shaped pendant.
"I am willing to exchange nine reincarnations for Riichi Zorn lifelong well-being."
The blind bride, with a smile, put her crescent moon pendant on her husband.
But being blind, she didn't notice that the pendant shone with light due to her ninth blessing.
She didn't notice it, but Riichi Zorn saw it really.
The crescent moon pendant is quite strange, with a magical pattern engraved on it. In the hazy moment, it seems that through it, a woman can be seen dancing gracefully under the moon, sometimes looking back and smiling at him.
As he watched, he felt that his mind was wandering. He was not sleepy at first, but he fell into a drowsy sleep.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already a white world.
