Chapter 782: The Shocked Li Rong
There was eternal silence in the room as Li Qiang looked at his wife's face silently.
His face didn't have any emotion as he asked his wife.
"You want Li Chen to leave the army?"
"Yes"
Li Rong said firmly.
Li Qiang didn't actually know what he should say. He had been trying to understand her completely in the past few days. He knows that it was difficult for her as a mother.
However, this decision of hers didn't settle well with him.
Li Chen did something wrong before…so wrong that it had weighed heavily on his heart even more than what sins his daughters had committed.
Was not that why he wanted to sacrifice himself and remove the threat like Zhao Wang Lei for his clan?
However, in the end, it was again his younger brother who did everything alone.
Now that finally Li Chen had done something right and he felt slightly relieved, his wife was again taking some wrong decisions of their son's life.
"That is something that you ask Li Chen first. It is his wish whether he wish to continue to stay in the army or not."
He left all the matters to his son.
Truthfully if his son really accepted his wife's wish then Li Qiang would be very disappointed but he didn't want to speak at all.
He didn't actually know what he could do to bring his wife back to her senses.
Li Qiang and Li Jiang had come back early while General Li was still in the Imperial Palace with Li Chen, Li Diu, and Yi Lei.
When Li Chen, Li Diu, and Yi Lei came to Li Manor with General Li, they were welcomed enthusiastically.
Yi Lei was very happy to see everyone coming back safe and sound.
However, the scar on Li Chen's face filled her heart with despair.
At that moment, she didn't remember the little bit of disagreement between the two households and went to Li Chen.
Holding his chin, she looked at the scar as her eyes started to fill with tears. Li Rong's face looked no less pale as she looked at her son's face.
It was such a deep scar that seemed to be formed by a sword. The scar ran from his forehead to his chin. Her chin trembled as she looked at her son on whom she had never let any harm come on.
She also wanted to step forward and hug him tightly but she didn't even want to be near Yi Jie for a moment. She was afraid that she would say something that would upset the environment.
"Chenchen, don't worry. Aunt will ask your elder sister to send that cream that Yi Lei had used. Your sister's cream is very good. Yi Lei's scar is also fading away."
Li Chen was not bothered at all by his scar. But when he heard the mention of his elder sister, his eyes flickered and he nodded his head with a smile.
A part of his heart doubted that his elder sister would really give him the cream. She had been very upset with him since his last actions.
It was only Li Rong who smiled bitterly at Yi Jie's words. At this moment, she couldn't stop the words from coming out of her mouth and said fearlessly.
"Are you sure that she will give Chenchen that cream, Yi Jie? Because I think that your daughter might not like to do that. After all, she had refused to do the same in the past."
The living room was deathly silent after Li Rong's words.
Yi Jie's face was cold and she didn't say anything. Li Heng was frowning. Li Chen also looked displeased with his mother's words.
Li Qiang was silent and his face was emotionless but his fists were clenched tightly. Li Rong perhaps didn't know but his patience was now ending day by day.
The Li Rong he had married…Li Qiang could see her disappearing slowly and slowly. This woman was someone else …someone who had a very bitter heart and couldn't see anyone else other than her children.
No one said anything.
And after this awkward moment, everyone went back to their courtyard to have some rest.
Li Rong was satisfied that Yi Jie didn't speak at all. She dragged Li Chen to her courtyard and when they were inside the room with Li Qiang present to them, she said instantly.
"Chenchen, leave the army."
Li Chen looked completely startled by what he heard. He glanced at his father but found him not even looking at him. He swallowed slightly as he realized that his father had perhaps not spoken even a single word to him even when they were on the border.
He was so angry at him. Perhaps he hated him.
Gulping the emotions, he put his attention on the present and looked at his mother as he asked
"Mother, what are you saying?"
"I am asking you to quit the army. You don't need to go to the border to fight anymore."
Li Chen frowned in confusion. He then thought that it was perhaps because of the scar he had on his face that his mother was so worried so he tried to comfort her.
"Mother…it is just a scar. It is normal for men to have scars. Mother doesn't need to worry so much."
However, Li Rong was not ready to hear anything and swiftly said
"You don't understand, Chenchen. I don't feel safe leaving you there. Can't you see? Your life would be in danger because you will be intentionally sent to dangerous places."
It took Li Qiang as well as Li Chen a few moments to understand what Li Rong was actually trying to imply but both of them were shocked.
"Mother…"
Li Chen looked at his mother with shock- filled eyes while Li Rong continued.
"Otherwise why did Li Diu and Yi Lei didn't get any scars but only you did?"
Li Chen frowned while Li Qiang's face was very cold.
"Last time, Yi Lei also got a scar."
Li Chen tried to reason with his mother, however, Li Rong didn't seem to ready to understand anything and said
"That was not because he was sent there intentionally, Chenchen. You can't see this because you are still young. They now know that you want to become the General so they are trying…" to remove you from Li Diu's path.
Li Rong had wanted to say. Her eyes were red and she looked completely angered when she said these words.
However, she could never finish.
"Ci Rong"
Li Qiang's cold voice stopped her amidst her words.
It was not only Li Chen but Li Rong who was also shocked to the core when she heard the way her husband called her.
With grief-filled eyes, she looked at her husband who had a cold face, and whispered
"Qiang…"
"If you said one more word against my brother then I promise that I shall not hesitate to divorce you."
The sky seemed to collapse for Li Rong when she heard such words.
However, Li Qiang didn't stay anymore. He left the room.
Li Chen was sad seeing his mother's state. He held her hand and moved her to sit on the bed.
"Your father… did he just say that?"
Li Rong asked no one in particular in a trembling voice. Li Chen rubbed his mother's cold hands as he said helplessly.
"You should not speak like this Mother. Mother doesn't know but I could have lost my life if Elder Brother had not come to save me. My scar can be seen mother but Elder Brother has a deep injury on his back which he got while saving me. It was because of this we stayed there for a few days and waited for him to recover enough to come back."
Hearing Li Chen's words, Li Rong was completely shocked.
She had never known that something like happened.
Li Diu saved her son's life.
"Mother….I know that you are deeply hurt by whatever happened to Li Na and Li Ciahong."
Li Rong looked at her son who called his elder sisters by their names. Li Chen however continued
"But they deserved it, Mother. You think that Second Aunt is at fault because she didn't help you in getting Li Na and Li Caihong forgiveness. But Mother, can you once think by putting yourself in Second Aunt's place? What if Elder Sister had planned something like this against Li Na and Li Caihong….would have ever been able to forgive her then?"
Li Rong unconsciously shook her head.
She would have never.
Li Chen sighed and continued
"So mother …rules should not change just because the culprit is closely related to us. My Elder Sister had also suffered immensely because of Li Na and Li Caihong but she never complained. However, later Li Na even tried to get close to Prime Minister Xi…That is simply disgusting, Mother."
Li Rong's face was completely blank and she didn't know what she should speak.
Her ears were ringing with her husband's words.
And now whatever Li Chen said to her strangely seemed to be very reasonable.
"Li Chen, go out."
The voice suddenly sounded in the room and both mother and son found General Li standing at the door.
General Li looked at Li Rong and said
"Elder Sister-in-Law, I wish to speak with you for some time."
Li Rong didn't say anything but Li Chen stood up and left.
And then General Li talked to Li Rong about what he had wanted to tell her for a long time.
