After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 179 Save your life
Qi Rong felt a pang of emotion—

Why did my son have to come back on these two days of particular occasion?

He hasn't been home for over a decade. He might not have come back a few years earlier or a few years later, but he chose to come back this year!
Not only did he return this year, but he also happened to return on the very two days when Lin Fu was about to die!

Qi Heng was already not close to his father because of Lin Fu's matter. If he happened to see Lin Fu die, it's easy to imagine how furious he would be.

To be honest, Qi Rong felt quite scared when he thought about it.

"Answer me! Where is my mother? I want to see her!" Qi Heng roared, his eyes bloodshot.

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry. Look, you came without saying a word. We weren't prepared, were we? Your mother isn't in town these days, so she can't come back in such a rush."

Qi Rong patted his son's shoulder, looking like a loving father, "Now that you're here, stay at home for a few days. It's okay if you don't see your mother this time. Come back in a while, and you'll definitely be able to see her then."

He had decided that the best way to handle this was to stall for time, get rid of Qi Heng first, and then tell him about Lin Fu's death when Qi Heng returned in a few years.

By then, the person will have been dead for several years, and the household will have been taken care of. Even if Qi Heng is furious, he won't be able to find any clues, so the matter will naturally be dropped.

At that time, if I speak kindly and sincerely to my son, will he not be of one mind with me?

Lin Fu was already a cripple, so it made no difference whether her mother lived or died; she couldn't help Qi Heng at all.

But he was different. He was the master of the Qi family, and the head of the family was his elder brother who was always close to him. As long as Qi Heng followed him well, even if his status in the family was not as good as his younger brother Qi Xu, it would be far superior to others!

Therefore, keeping it from him is for his own good!
After Qi Rong finished speaking, he saw that his son remained unmoved, his eyes still bloodshot, like a wolf cub about to pounce.

He felt a strange sense of fear, but quickly straightened his face. "Furthermore, I haven't even held you accountable yet! As a junior, you actually threatened your aunt and even barged into her room. This is outrageous!"

"Aunt? She doesn't even deserve that title!" Qi Heng sneered. "I don't have an aunt who'd sleep with my brother-in-law!"

If he didn't have too much to do tonight and didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, then what he said just now would have been more than just a threat.

"You bastard!" Qi Rong's expression changed, and he raised his hand high.

"Climbing into your brother-in-law's bed"—that phrase even includes insults directed at himself!
Qi Rong felt his face burning with embarrassment in front of so many people.

This unfilial son, if we don't teach him a lesson, we'll become a laughingstock!

Qi Heng saw his movement, raised an eyebrow slightly, and simply reached out to grab his wrist.

His father, who was once a tall and mighty figure in his eyes, is now nothing more than someone he can easily manipulate; the difference in their strength has long been reversed.

Qi Rong ultimately did not deliver the slap.

I still felt a little guilty, and besides, my son is taller than me now, so holding my arm up like this... is quite tiring.

"Fine, I won't hold this against you this time, but there won't be a next time. You may leave!" He withdrew his hand and said coldly.

Qi Ye and the others also spoke up, offering their advice.

"Heng'er, that's still your father!"

"Yes, fathers and sons shouldn't hold grudges overnight. Let's talk things out."

“Your mother…she just went out to visit an old friend and isn’t home. You should come back to see her later.”

"Yes, she'll come back sooner or later, so why are you so fixated on today?"

"Such a big thing has happened in the manor, isn't it more important than you looking for your mother? Qi Heng, are you still an immature child?" Under everyone's gaze, Qi Heng pursed his lips, seemingly feeling a little guilty.

"Very well, matters at home are more important today, so I won't ask any further questions."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him turn and leave.

"Arong, look what you've done!" Qi Ye sighed, looking at his younger brother. "I warned you not to go after that Zhang Qinmiao, but you wouldn't listen. Now the family is really in for a rough time."

Qi Ye actually disapproved of Qi Rong's treatment of his wife, and even took his wife's cousins ​​as concubines.

That's so inconsiderate!
But this younger brother was spoiled rotten. He wouldn't listen to anyone. Once he got excited about sex, he didn't care if they were his cousins ​​or older sisters.

If I can't persuade him, then I can only let him do it.

But doing this also has its troubles. Look, now Qi Heng will be at odds with him!

Qi Rong looked embarrassed. "I'm his father. Do I need my son's permission to find any woman I want? Anyway, it's all done now, it's too late to say anything."

Qi Ye glared at him helplessly and waved his hand, "Go, go back to your room, you reek of alcohol."

We can't count on him for anything important; he's just an eyesore here.

Qi Rong couldn't wait to leave. Upon hearing this, he chuckled and then, lifting his robe, jogged away.

This appearance caused many members of the Qi family to frown and look disgusted.

Qi Heng hurried back to his room and asked, "How is my mother?"

He went to perform that play just now to distance himself from tonight's events.

The more anxious he acted, the angrier he became about his mother, the more it made him seem unrelated to tonight's events and the affairs of the other courtyard.

After the performance, he successfully made the people in the mansion disgusted with him, and Qi Rong avoided him like the plague.

In this way, no one will come knocking on his door anymore, and he has bought himself some time without being disturbed, which he can use to keep his mother company.

"Don't worry, she's taken all the medicine. Look, her complexion has improved a lot," Chen Lan said.

Lin Fu was lying on the bed in the guest room. She had a lot of white hair and was extremely thin, looking sickly and weak.

But this is much better than in the other courtyard. Mother's face has finally regained some color and is no longer ashen.

"Thank you all, thank you junior sister."

Qi Heng was almost in tears.

He couldn't imagine how much suffering his mother had endured over the years, nor could he imagine what terrible things would have happened if he hadn't been able to come, or if he had come alone.

Fortunately, my sect accompanied me along the way, and my junior sister helped me, which made things go so smoothly!

"We've weathered everything, don't be sad." Liu Feng sighed and patted Qi Heng's shoulder. "Your mother was in serious debt before, but now her life has been saved. We can make up for the rest slowly in our Immortal Sect in the days to come."

“That’s right, that’s right. Xianlai Sect is a blessed land. After Auntie goes there, she will definitely get better and healthier.” Du Yue also said.

Qi Heng nodded, stood up and bowed to everyone, "I am deeply grateful for your kindness today."
