Chapter 399 - You’re Too Cruel

Old Master Li took it out aggressively. Li Haoran’s face turned white and he held Old Master Li’s hand down. “Dad, didn’t you say we would wait for the two children to discuss it together? Now...”

Before Li Haoran could finish, Li Beinian said, “I will listen to grandpa.”

Li Haoran was furious. “Nian Nian, how can you be so insensible? Can you blame Donglin? He was obviously framed by someone!”

“Yes, Nian Nian. Donglin just made a mistake that every man would make. Now the whole world knows that you’re engaged, isn’t it inappropriate for you to end it at this point?” Li Haoqin argued.

Li Haobin was also a little upset. “Nian Nian, I also think that you’re too impulsive. You shouldn’t have left yesterday night. Now, Donglin is being trashed by the outside world.”

Fang Zhili said, “Nian Nian, please reconsider it.”

“This is absurd!” Old Master Li slammed the marriage contract box on the table. “Pass me a pair of scissors!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Aunt Jiang had already prepared it and politely handed it to him.

Li Haoran snatched it away and said, “Dad...”

“Give it to me!” Old Master Li demanded with a solemn and serious face. “This marriage contract was set ten years ago when Nian Nian was only two years old. I blame the old generation for being muddleheaded. Today, this marriage contract is void!”

While speaking it, he cut the marriage contract without hesitation.

The brocade was cut into two halves.

The marriage contract that harmed her for two lifetimes was finally destroyed.

Looking at the brocade, Li Beinian felt an indescribable sense of relief.

It was finally over.

Mu Donglin stared at the brocade for a long time before looking up at Li Beinian.

Seeing her obviously swollen face and determined expression, he trembled a little.

In the end, he sneered and walked away without saying a word.

Mu Che and his wife did not say a word from the start.

Seeing the result, he sighed heavily, stood up, and bowed to Old Master Li. “I’m ashamed for not teaching my son well. Excuse us.”

Wu Meiya also bowed, but before she left, she glanced at Li Beinian with a complicated expression. She said grudgingly. “Nian Nian, Donglin has always been loyal to you. You’re too cruel.”

“Yes, you’re too cruel.”

“He’s a man. Which man hasn’t made a mistake before?”

“It’s not even a big deal, but you kept insisting on ending the marriage. How insensible.”

“Seriously, ending the marriage over a small issue. How naive. How else has Donglin let you down?”

...

“Everyone shut up!” Old Master Li threw his scissors aside. “Get lost!”

Once the Old Master spoke, no one dared to utter a word.

Many people left. Finally, only Li Haoran’s family and Old Master were left.

Li Haoran gritted his teeth and said, “Nian Nian, you saw what happened during the engagement ceremony. It wasn’t easy... Donglin treated you so well...”

“You can marry him, then!” Old Master Li threw the ruined marriage certificate at him. “Nian Nian deserves better! Why do you have to be such a sh*t stirrer? You’re her biological father. How can you harm your daughter like that?”

“How have I harmed her? Donglin is still young and really treated her perfectly well...”

“Oh?” Li Beinian interrupted Li Haoran. “Do you know how well he treated me?”

Li Haoran frowned. “When has he wronged you?”

“When Lin Kerou plotted to kill me, Mu Donglin protected her. Did you see it?” Li Beinian looked at him and said, “He has always been entangled with Lin Kerou and was passive when she tried to harm me multiple times. You didn’t know about it, right?”
