She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 804: Chapter 840: Running Away from Home

The farce ended, and the hall returned to silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Hai Shen thought about the reason for his return and frowned, asking, “Grandfather, I want to know if Shen Yu’s death sentence being changed to a suspended death sentence was our family’s doing?” There’s a big difference between immediate execution and a suspended death sentence. If someone behaves well with a suspended sentence, it can be changed to life imprisonment. Although he also thought that a person like Shen Yu being executed with one shot was a waste, he couldn’t tolerate his family helping the Shen family, or helping that scum Shen Yu.

“Enough!” Mr. Su gave Hai Shen a look, “Can’t you see your grandfather is about to faint from anger?”

“I see!” Hai Shen grumbled, “Even if I see it, I can’t accept it. You must give me a reason, otherwise, I’ll run away from home.”

“What?” Mr. Su was startled and almost burst out laughing.

“Grandson, you and I, together.” Elder Hai said with a serious face.

“What?”

“What?”

Hai Shuangjie and Mr. Su were stunned at the same time.

“Dad, please don’t scare me. If you run away from home, it will take our lives.” Last time, when Mr. Hai sneaked off alone to find Bao’er, it already frightened the whole family out of their wits.

“Grandfather, then let’s go together.” Hai Shen realized that his grandfather definitely didn’t know, which meant his father was the one who did it? This guess made him take a deep breath.

Actually, Hai Shen and Hai Yunfeng’s father-son relationship wasn’t close. Ever since Bao’er’s disappearance, Hai Yunfeng hadn’t returned home, and his son had been left to grow up by his grandfather’s side. When he was young, he also longed for a father’s love, but as he grew older, he realized his father was a man with a heart as hard as iron. Because of his sister, he already loathed this family.

After growing up, the father and son interacted a bit more, but he had already passed the age where he needed paternal love and didn’t care anymore.

“Assistant!” Elder Hai called out, “Go and hurry them up again!”

“Yes.” The assistant responded loudly, “The leader is already on their way back, they’ll be here in ten minutes.”

“Alright!”

Hai Yunfeng arrived faster than expected, returning in less than ten minutes. He was wearing formal clothes, clearly having rushed here and not yet having had time to change into casual attire.

His imposing presence entering the living room made Hai Shen involuntarily tense up. He immediately stood with Hai Shuangjie to greet him.

Hai Yunfeng nodded, greeted Mr. Su first, and then looked at Elder Hai.

“I’m sorry, Father.” He said calmly, “Are you asking about Shen Yu’s matter?”

Elder Hai looked up, frowning, and said, “Sit down, or kneel, you choose, but I don’t like looking up at people.”

Hai Yunfeng smiled wryly, Hai Shuangjie quickly moved aside, giving up his seat.

“Thank you!” Hai Yunfeng nodded and sat in the spot originally occupied by Hai Shuangjie.

“Give me an explanation, or I’ll run away with Xiaoshen.” Elder Hai said seriously, keeping a straight face.

Mr. Su watched his friend’s approach and was almost dying of laughter inside. What was initially quite serious ended up looking like a comedy act because of him. Grandfather and grandson running away from home, not worried about being laughed at when it gets out.

If it were him, the teacup, ashtray, and walking stick would already be flying at them, giving them a good beating before talking it out. Su Hai, that little fox, never escaped without getting beaten until he bent his neck.
