Chapter 680: Admitting His Guilt!
Translator: Lordbluefire
As soon as Family Leader Luo said this, how could Uncle Luo dare to delay?
He gritted his teeth and suddenly said, “Big Brother, do you not trust me either?”
He didn’t know if the machine could really detect fingerprints, but he knew that he couldn’t try it today!
Family Leader Luo said directly, “1 trust you, but it’s so simple to test, and it can also make Luo Yan give up. Don’t worry, your fingerprints have never been on this machine before, so they won’t have your fingerprints… Just test it once…”
However, Uncle Luo’s face showed a somewhat hurt expression. “Big Brother, by asking me to test, you’re doubting me! If so, I might as well admit it, rather than be humiliated by you all!”
He said this while glaring at Luo Yan.
Family Leader Luo was momentarily at a loss for words.
After all, Uncle Luo was an elder of the Luo family. For Luo Yan to accuse him like this and then require him to prove his innocence, it was hard to accept even if they explained it clearly.
Family Leader Luo was unsure what to say, and just as he was about to say they should forget about testing and that he trusted Uncle Luo, Shen Ruojing stepped forward…
She came right in front of Uncle Luo, grabbed his wrist, and smiled. “Uncle Luo, right? What’s wrong with testing? It won’t cost you anything. Just give it a try!”
Uncle Luo was furious and tried to pull his hand back, but he found that the Princess had a strong grip on his hand, making it impossible for him to break free!
Then, Shen Ruojing forcefully led Uncle Luo to Ye Lu’s machine.
Uncle Luo yelled in fear, “Your Highness, you are openly humiliating me, an old servant! Aren’t you afraid I’ll complain to the Emperor?”
Shen Ruojing nonchalantly replied, “Oh, it’s fine. If it turns out not to be you, 1’11 apologize afterward.”
Uncle Luo continued to roar, “Is an apology enough?”
Shen Ruojing still spoke casually, “What else do you want? Or should I wear a thorny wreath and apologize? That’s not impossible…”
Uncle Luo wanted to say something, but his finger was forcibly pressed onto the machine!
After about ten seconds, the machine announced, “Fingerprint collection successful!”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Luo’s expression instantly became panicked.
If the fingerprint collection was successful, that meant the fingerprints would match.
He suddenly felt as if all the strength had been drained from his body and he slumped to the ground.
He instinctively looked at Family Leader Luo and swallowed hard.
Then, he heard Ye Lu exclaim from the other side. “It’s him, it’s really him… The evidence is irrefutable now!”
As soon as these words came out, Uncle Luo lost all his strength.
Family Leader Luo seemed to be shocked as well. He glanced at Uncle Luo and then looked at the machine where Ye Lu was.
Just as he was about to question the accuracy of the machine, he heard Uncle Luo shout. “Big Brother, I didn’t do it on purpose, please let me off this once!”
Family Leader Luo was instantly dumbfounded.
He couldn’t believe it and turned to Uncle Luo. “Old Second, it is really you?”
Uncle Luo started crying. “Big Brother, I had no choice, 1 was forced! 1 had to do it, do you understand? My daughter’s engagement was broken off because Luo Yan joined the army, and my daughter tried to commit suicide at home! Though her mother and 1 saved her, she has now lost her sanity!”
Tears streamed down Uncle Luo’s face.
The more he spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. “Your main family has always had an advantage over our second branch. Now that your daughter has joined the army, it has tarnished the reputation of the girls in our family. What about my daughter? Has Luo Yan ever considered this problem?”
Uncle Luo’s words left Family Leader Luo dumbfounded.
He stared at his second brother in shock, not knowing what to say.
He never expected that his daughter’s parachute would have been tampered with by Uncle Luo. If her buckle had been compromised, no one could have come to her rescue if something had gone wrong in the sky!
His brother almost caused harm to his own daughter!
Family Leader Luo looked at Luo Yan again and saw that she had red eyes as well.
At that moment, he had the urge to kill Uncle Luo, but listening to Uncle Luo’s accusations, Family Leader Luo suddenly didn’t know what to do…
Everyone had a daughter.
When his daughter was in danger, he was extremely anxious.
Moreover, he had lost a daughter before, Princess Consort Luo…
So, he understood Uncle Luo’s feelings.
If someone else’s mistake almost killed his daughter and made her lose her sanity, he would probably go crazy too!
Family Leader Luo took a deep breath and tightened his lips.
Seeing the expression on his big brother’s face, Uncle Luo knew how important this daughter was to his brother and realized that he probably couldn’t escape the situation today. He then took a deep breath and looked at Luo Yan. “Luo Yan, don’t you realize what you’ve done wrong? If you want to pursue something, just go for it. Why involve your siblings at home?!
“When you fight and win, you can gain a good reputation, and you can leave.. But have you ever thought that if you lose, all the girls in the family will have to pay the price for you? What are you trying to achieve here? Do you know how much 1 hate you, Luo Yan!? If my daughter goes mad, if she can’t live anymore, if this can’t be resolved this time, 1 won’t let you go!”
