Chapter 506 - [Bonus ]DU LIU'S EMBARRASSMENT

"Luo'er, did we hear right? Brother Ying Wei woke up?"

"Xiao Luo, did second brother really wake up? How did we not know?"

"He woke up, right? Boss woke up, right?" Acting Vice President Tong anxiously inquired. He still treated Han Ying Wei as his superior.

Han Luo calmly observed their faces. They seemed to be eagerly waiting for the truth. Their expressions were a mixture of love, happiness, sorrow, and excitement.

Han Luo wasn't the only one, Mo Yuan and Tang Yujin also scanned their faces.

They wished to detect any flaw because when Han Ying Wei was transferred and the doctor died, the culprit should have known that fact.

However, they spotted nothing suspicious.

Han Luo answered, "Yes, Daddy woke up. You didn't hear any news because I've transferred him to the Lu Hospital. 

"They notified me after he woke up. They didn't want me to visit him today because he needs ample rest. I can't wait to see him."

"Why don't we go now?" Han Changhong suggested.

"Yes, we can go now and visit him, right?" Han Cheng sang along.

"Why don't we go tomorrow?" Han Luo suggested. She wasn't expecting them to be so pushy. 

"After all, we have so many things to ask him. I wish to reopen the car accident."

"You do?" Han Cheng seemed surprised.

Han Luo nodded. "Yes, I have to. Daddy must know something about it. He had seen the driver's face. We will catch my mommy's killer soon."

Acting Vice President Tong placed his hand on her shoulder.

"We will catch the killer soon. We must give your mother justice. A police officer deserves this much honor."

His encouraging words moved Han Luo's heart. She almost became emotional. 

"Fine, we will meet my brother tomorrow. Noah, tell the kitchen to make some sweets. My brother loves them." Han Changhong ordered. 

"Sure, I'll let them know." Noah respectfully bowed.

"Today is truly a happy occasion. I can't believe my brother is finally awake." Han Changhong shed tears.

"What's there to be happy about? Since he is awake, won't he take over your position in the company?" his wife Du Liu taunted.

Her disdainful gaze landed on Han Luo who was standing beside Mo Yuan.

"You have been working so hard for the past few years to keep the company from falling and raising his child, what will be given to you in return? Position of the Vice President?"

Han Luo stared at her. Her eyes reddened. 

She never paid attention to her aunt's words before, but this time, it really hurt her since her father was involved. 

"Why? Are you a beggar who has nothing? Let me guess, you are that kind of beggar who has everything and yet pretends to have nothing."

Ma Rui couldn't stand her favorite girl being bullied. She taunted Du Liu back.

Han Changhong was embarrassed. There were children from good families and also President Mo and his wife. He was completely humiliated by his wife tonight.

Before Du Liu could say something to Ma Rui, he rebuked her, "What nonsense! Is this how you talk about my brother and niece? Did I do things for her so that I can get something in return?

"As her uncle, it's my responsibility to take care of her. it's not like she lives here alone. Sheng Ming lives with her. Furthermore, she has been paying me back for the house. 

"All her educational expenses are being taken care of by Madam Mo. She even hired Noah to raise her. Madam Mo isn't part of the family and yet she does it for a child, and look at you! If you took care of her from the very beginning, would an outsider come to help her?

"You only want wealth and fortune, but you cannot even become a proper mistress of our household. Because of your behavior, our whole family has been humiliated. I can't wait for Ying Wei to take over and relieve me from this humiliation."

Han Changhong didn't regret what he said. He was thinking about it for a long time and now he couldn't stand it anymore.

His brother finally woke up and she had the audacity to talk like that. 

She even said that in front of Han Ying Wei's only daughter who was waiting for an eternity for her father to wake up. 

Moreover, guests were here. She brought disgrace to his family over and over, just like his daughters.

Han Changhong really couldn't stand it anymore.

Du Liu's face sank. She wanted to retort but held back. Words wouldn't come out of her mouth. 

"Daddy, you shouldn't speak to mommy like this,' Han Weiwei sided with her mother.  The sisters tagged along with their mother shamelessly.

Han Changhong sternly reproached her, "Then your mother shouldn't talk about someone else's father like that either!"

Han Weiwei and Han Wanwan flinched. They didn't dare to side with their mother anymore.

Han Luo felt bad for her uncle. He was always kind to them, but his life sucked because he chose the wrong partner for himself.

"Don't be upset, uncle. It's just that their upbringing isn't good enough and they are too narrow-minded. We can't blame them for being shortsighted. We can only pity them for choosing a bad path."

She couldn't stay quiet any longer. Not for her father, or her uncle.

Du Liu, Han Weiwei, and Han Wanwan glared at her.

"If it wasn't for you, we would be a happy family!" Du Liu blamed her.

Han Luo shrugged. "You were aiming for the Han Family's wealth from the moment you married my uncle. You can't blame your greed on me. My family gave you a chance, unfortunately, you couldn't use it properly."

Du Liu gritted her teeth. She never hated anyone as much as she hated her. And, to make things worse, she looked just like her mother. It disgusted her even more.

"You…"

"Please leave my house. Don't ruin this atmosphere any longer. Take your daughters with you too. I had enough of you all."

Han Luo's voice was cold as she demanded. She left no room for Du Liu and her daughters.

Du Liu pointed at her and yelled at Han Changhong. 

"You raised her and look how she talks back at your wife and daughters!"

Han Changhong looked away. "That's because you deserve it."

"…" Afterward, Du Liu couldn't say anything.

After they left, Han Changhong apologized to everyone but Mo Zhen and Ma Rui brushed it off.

The youngsters didn't think it was his fault. They got into the party mood instantly.

The night was filled with music and laughter.

----------

Later that night, it was dark outside. It was quiet. The wind blew, sometimes making a whistling sound. The dry leaves danced slowly and made a rustling sound.

A pair of feet soundlessly walked into the clean corridor. Two nurses were working and didn't notice the presence of the stranger.

The white coat fluttered as the stranger walked. His movements were cautious.

After reaching his destination, the stranger disguised in a doctor's uniform opened the door and entered the dark room, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

The feet strode over to the bed and stopped there. Knowing that a patient was sleeping in the bed, the stranger raised an arm. 

The arm carried a short, yet sharp knife. The arm moved quickly.. The knife plunged into the heart of the patient.
