But who would have known that when they arrived at the bride’s home, there was no sign of the bride.

Even the family’s home lacked any hint of a festive atmosphere.

After much questioning, they found out that the bride had run away long ago!

It turned out this bride-to-be was no virtuous girl. Before she had even come of age, she had been involved with someone, lost her virginity, and had an abortion. Everyone in their village knew about it, except the Liao Family.

But it wasn’t hard to understand why; if she had been from a good family, she probably wouldn’t have looked twice at Liao Laifu, especially someone who had just been released from prison.

Not only had she run away, but she also took with her the two hundred in betrothal money, even selling off the car, took the money, and ran off in the middle of the night with a man whose wife had died.

Liao Laifu was already a delinquent.

Learning that things had turned out this way, he became furiously mad, starting a ruckus with his gang of miscreant friends.

However, the girl’s family had three sons; although he had a group of delinquent friends, they were the kind to flee at the sight of trouble and wouldn’t risk their lives for him. Once things got out of hand and they began to lose the fight, they turned tail and ran, leaving him alone. He stood no chance on his own, not only did he not get his way, but he also got a vicious beating that left his legs crippled, and he was thrown back to the Liao Family!

Now he was hanging on by just a thread.

Stricken by this shock, Liao Xinmin suffered a stroke and was left bedridden.

Li Family and Liao Zhaoji, being two women, were at a loss on how to handle the situation. They sought help from their four daughters’ husbands, but when these families heard the extent of the debacle, they all refused to get involved, not wanting to bring disrepute upon themselves. With no options left, the elder sister of the Li Family ran to the Ruan Family, hoping they would intervene and help resolve the situation.

In contrast to the other family’s three sons, the Ruan Family boasted four robust sons!

Only—

She never expected that Liao Zhaoji and Ruan Jiandang had long been divorced and their relationship was irreparably strained.

Such a matter would naturally not compel them to offer assistance.

Even Ruan Jun and the others showed no change in emotion when they heard the news.

The old lady paced desperately, but they refused to intervene; in the end, the Ruanlin Family even expelled her directly from their house.

As the old lady knocked on the door for a long time to no avail, the Ruan Family remained indifferent and she had to leave helplessly.

Once it was quiet outside, the Ruanlin Family turned to Ruan Jiandang and said, "If you want to go—"

"No one is to go! No one is to go!" Before she could finish, the usually calm Ruan Chi suddenly slammed his bowl to the ground, screaming in near hysteria with a ferocious expression, "No one is allowed to go! If anyone dares, I will kill myself! Do you hear me!"

The Ruanlin Family had not actually planned for Ruan Jiandang to go; she was merely probing. But she was taken aback by Ruan Chi’s intense reaction.

Seeing Ruan Chi’s bloodshot eyes filled her with alarm, and as she tried to soothe and explain, Ruan Chi erupted again, shouting fiercely, "Mom! Dad must not go! If he dares, I will kill myself right now!" After bellowing these words, he turned and charged into the kitchen. When he reemerged, a kitchen knife was pressed against his neck.

This truly frightened everyone in the Ruan Family.

"Chizi!" Ruan Jun shouted, wanting to step forward, but as soon as he took a step, Ruan Chi cut through his own skin with the knife, and blood began to seep out.

"No one is allowed to go, no one! If anyone dares, I’ll kill myself right away!" Ruan Chi screamed, tears streaming down his face in a hysterical shrill.
