Chapter 91 Redemption
When Luo Yan was carried into Liu Jingqiu's house by Hua Li, she saw Luo Shicheng destroying the house like a madman...

Yes, they really were tearing the house apart. They smashed everything that could be smashed and everything that couldn't be smashed. Even the walls were smashed with several holes.

Seeing Luo Shicheng's hands covered in blood, Xia Suya and Luo Zhaoxing, as parents, repeatedly asked all the police officers to step back, prompting Hua Li to call out in fear.

"Luo Shicheng..."

But Luo Shicheng, trapped in an endless abyss, couldn't hear anything; he just frantically tried to smash the darkness that was dragging him down.

Liu Jingqiu stood in the middle of the room like a quail with its neck snapped. Upon hearing Hua Li's voice, she suddenly pointed at Hua Li and screamed menacingly.

"Luo Shicheng, your wife is here..."

Song Lang, who was trying to bypass Luo Shicheng to check on An Xiaotong's situation, wished he could punch Liu Jingqiu, who was causing trouble, into unconsciousness.

Luo Shicheng punched the wall repeatedly, creating a hole. Spiderweb-like cracks spread across the entire wall, making the whole house teeter on the verge of collapse.

"Shicheng, calm down..." Hua Li called out to Luo Shicheng, mustering her courage.

Luo Shicheng suddenly turned to look at Hua Li, tears instantly streaming down his face...

He was raised by his eldest brother, Luo Ankang. Although his brother wasn't very bright, he loved his younger brother just as much.

With his parents busy with work, Luo Ankang took on the responsibility of caring for his younger brother. Later, when the political situation was sensitive and his parents were walking on thin ice every day, Luo Ankang kept his spoiled younger brother by his side every day, determined not to cause his parents any trouble.

To ensure his two younger brothers could protect themselves, the eldest brother sent them to learn martial arts from their father's comrade-in-arms. Unfortunately, the third brother was lazy and unwilling to endure hardship, so Luo Ankang continued to keep him by his side and pamper him.

Later, his older brother married a country girl and they had a daughter. He grew from a mischievous boy into a young man who knew how to cherish his niece.

One day, he went out to play and encountered a vendor selling large pieces of candy. He bought the candy and happily took it home to give to his niece, but unexpectedly stumbled upon his sister-in-law having an affair with a man.

The man knew that even if the Luo family was in ruins, they were still not someone he could afford to offend, so he grabbed the knife he was carrying and tried to silence them.

The boy, who had been whining and refusing to learn martial arts, finally realized his elder brother's good intentions in making him learn martial arts, but it was too late.

Just before the gleaming blade was about to pierce his chest, a tall figure shielded him.

The older brother was feeling unwell and asked to go home to rest. When he got to his doorstep, he found someone trying to kill his beloved younger brother. Without thinking, he shielded his brother.

"Run, run!" The older brother, who had been stabbed in the chest, was wrestling with his female lover, shouting at the top of his lungs for the boy to run.

The boy obediently ran away, but by the time he found his incredibly powerful father, his older brother was already dead, and the murderer had vanished without a trace.

He couldn't accept that his beloved older brother had died saving him, and he rushed out of the house like a madman. He started looking for people to fight, and he fought desperately against others.

He couldn't commit suicide because his life was bought with his older brother's life, but he also hoped that someone would kill him so that he could convince himself that even if he didn't slack off and studied martial arts diligently, he still couldn't save his older brother.

But he spent a whole year fighting his way through the entire area within a hundred miles of Beijing, until local bullies and thugs would turn and run away at the sight of him.

He finally understood that he had the ability to protect his older brother, but his older brother would never come back to life.

He accepted the cruel reality and decided that since he could not go back in time to protect his elder brother from death, he would protect the only bloodline his elder brother left behind.

When he got home, he heard from his parents that his sister-in-law had moved out with his niece. He knew that given the current situation, what his sister-in-law had done absolutely could not be exposed. If he were to die with that woman, it would only implicate the entire Luo family. So why did his parents allow his sister-in-law to take his niece away?

The mother said that after all, her sister-in-law was her niece's biological mother and wouldn't harm her, but he didn't believe her and found out where her sister-in-law rented...

He pushed open the slightly ajar door and saw that the door was locked. Unable to find the key, he kicked open the window and jumped inside.

A pungent stench assaulted his nostrils. He frowned and called out to his niece, but no one answered until he discovered the small body lying in the bucket, covered in maggots…

"Ahhh!" Luo Shicheng roared in pain. He wanted to live for his elder brother and take good care of his elder brother's only bloodline, but he couldn't find a reason to continue living. Jiaojiao's tragic death was a nightmare he could never face for the rest of his life.

He went on a rampage again, fighting everywhere. His father tricked him into going home, and together with more than a dozen comrades, they captured him, tied him up, and sent him to Jiangcheng.

In Jiangcheng, he met the only person who could defeat him: Sun Bailing.

Sun Bailing, however, didn't beat him to death; each time, he would knock him down and throw him into solitary confinement...

He lived like this for more than a year, gradually regaining some of the courage to live under Sun Bailing's fists.

He had gone on several missions with An Guo, who took care of him like an older brother.

An Guo sacrificed himself to save him, and he was filled with remorse. He went to An Guo's house to give him condolences and money, and happened to see Liu Jingqiu kneeling on the ground holding An Xiaotong, who was a few months old, crying and begging that she would rather die than be with her child.

He seemed to see another sister-in-law and niece, except that they had a deep mother-daughter bond, and the niece was growing up slowly under his protection.

The closer An Xiaotong got to the age when his niece passed away, the more he cared. It was as if as long as An Xiaotong grew up safely to the age of six, the shadow of death would no longer destroy his world.

But today, the nightmare returned. An Xiaotong, like her niece, fell into a bucket of water and never came back to life.

Even the eighteen levels of hell are nothing more than this. Luo Shicheng could not break through the darkness that trapped him. He could only watch helplessly as he was dragged into hell by evil spirits, never to be freed for eternity.

No one dared to approach Luo Shicheng. Hua Li was so frightened by Luo Shicheng's appearance that her hands trembled and she could not hold Luo Yan. She could only squat down and put Luo Yan on the ground and hold her with both hands.

Luo Yan nimbly slipped under Hua Li's arm, opened her little hands, and ran towards Luo Shicheng.

"Dad! Daddy!"

The childish voice tore through the shackles binding him, dispelling the darkness and causing the evil spirits to shrink back in terror from their grasp.

As Luo Yan called out to him again and again, Luo Shicheng's pupils gradually focused.

Luo Shicheng looked down and saw Luo Yan hugging his leg, her little face full of innocent and bright smiles.

The original text only states that Luo Shicheng disliked Hua Li and her daughter, and even ignored their suffering, but did not explain the reason. However, Luo Yan could see Luo Shicheng's pain, so she was willing to risk her life to save this lost child.

“Yanyan…” Luo Shicheng murmured.

Seeing his own contorted face reflected in Luo Yan's clear eyes, Luo Shicheng looked up to see Song Lang carrying An Xiaotong, who had opened her eyes, out of the tub. Meeting Hua Li's worried gaze, Luo Shicheng suddenly closed his eyes and collapsed.

The moment Luo Shicheng fell to the ground, Luo Yan rushed a few steps and hugged Luo Shicheng's head.

Luckily, she caught him. Otherwise, her father, who was already mentally challenged, would have become even more mentally challenged after falling and hitting his head. Who would be willing to earn money for her then? Luo Yan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
