319 Couple fight

Marshal Yi, who thought he was going to say something sensible held his head in his hands and yelled, “That’s what you are focusing on? Bloody hell. Get the fuck out of my sight.”

After the Marshal said that he cut the video call but he was still seething in anger. He couldn’t believe that brat dared to fall in love with Zi Han and lie to him about it. Because of his stupidity prime minister Ikeda was threatening to publicize these images to the entire Onyx federation which would undoubtedly push the prime ministers to take away military power out of his family’s hands.

To them having such massive power in the hands of two families was already unsettling, what more if these two families united in marriage? Yes, the Zi family’s wealth and power were bestowed upon them before old earth was even destroyed and the first family was still the first family, not a royal family.

The Yi family were private mercenaries on old earth and had enough wealth to build their own ark as a private entity. These two families grew stronger from generation to generation into unfathomable entities that couldn’t be easily provoked.

Despite all that the prime ministers tried to push their agenda under the banner of giving power to the citizens of the Onyx Federation. They couldn’t dream of twisting Zi Xingxi’s arm and taking the Bloodgarde from her because the Bloodgarde had nothing to do with the public.

The military though was a different story. They swore to protect the federation and its citizens thus they deserved to be under the control of the elected government.

If the military remained in private control what is to stop Yi Zhen from waking up one day and deciding to topple the government? The prime ministers also wanted some type of defense against the Bloodgarde if things ever went south and to do that they needed full military control.

In conclusion, if his son’s relationship with Zi Han was exposed there would be undoubtedly chaos and he would be pressured again to relinquish his control.



What he didn’t understand though was prime minister Ikeda’s goal in all this. Shouldn’t he be rushing to publicize these pictures so they could get what they always wanted as a collective?

.....

Marshal Yi sat on his desk his palm resting on his forehead with a lit cigar pinched in between his fingers. He sat there quietly for a long time. He only got back to himself after the heat from the cigar reached his fingers.

He put it out while saying, “Hydra, call my wife.”

“Yes sir,” replied Hydra and it called Mrs. Marshal.

Lin Ruoxi was in her boutique checking out the new lingerie stock that had just been brought in when she saw the incoming call. She smiled happily as she answered the call.

Lifting the lilac lace bra that can barely cover anything she asked, “What do you think?... Should I bring it home so we can sample the range and see if people will like it?” her expression beaming.

She was genuinely happy to see him unfortunately, this wasn’t a friendly call. “You... you knew, didn’t you?”

Lin Ruoxi who was about to pick up the red one and show him paused as she raised her head to look at him.

“Huh? What are you talking about?” she asked as the smile on her face sank realizing that something was wrong with her husband.



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“You knew all along that our son was running around with that Zi kid and you didn’t fuckin tell me?” he said the pain in his voice apparent.

Lin Ruoxi put down what she was holding before heading to her office and shutting the door her hands trembling. She had no idea how he found out but this wasn’t how she intended for him to find out. She thought she could ease him into it when the time came but someone jumped the gun and told him.

“It was because you would react like this that I didn’t tell you sooner. I needed more time,” she said her entire body tense.

“More time for what? When exactly did you think it was appropriate huh? When they run off and elope? Is that when you intended to tell me?... Gosh Ru, what the fuck are you thinking? You know how hard I have worked to ensure the safety of our family. This... this fuckin relationship puts a target on our sons’ backs, it puts a target on my little girl’s back, and yet you didn’t fuckin say anything to me.”

Lin Ruoxi pointed at him and said, “Don’t use such vulgar words with me. When you proposed to me my father was against it for the very same reason. It would put a target on the Lin family but what did you say back then, huh?... Speak... why aren’t you speaking now?”

Marshal Yi rubbed his face in frustration before he said, “That was different.”

“How was it different? My entire family is living on a private planet two days away from Capital Star. They uprooted everything just so that you can marry me. They sacrificed everything so that they won’t be used against you... You know what... don’t talk to me until you get your head out of your ass,” she said and immediately cut the call leaving the Marshal staring at a blank screen.

He dialed her contact again only to be rejected the moment it rang. When he tried again he had been blocked for two days.

Seeing this message prompt the Marshal was even more enraged but no matter how mad he was he wouldn’t go looking for his wife because things would just escalate. The fact that he had dropped f-bombs at her already added fuel to the flames. But why Zi Han? He could accept his son’s preferences but why that Zi kid? That kid was most certainly going to be the downfall of his family.

***

While the Marshal was having a fight with his wife over his son’s affairs, Zi Xingxi was staring at the man who had been released from his shackles as they waited for Lynn Feng to bring back everything he had secretly investigated about the person just in case something big ever happened in the future.

He already knew he was going to die today but he wasn’t willing to die leaving the mastermind behind to live a happy life, no fucking way. He was going to burn all bridges today and Zi Xingxi wa kind enough to delay his torture until then.
