Chapter 59: Regret

Happy Reading~ =========== "Cough-" When the sound of an old man's coughing sounded, it startled Zhao Jia. But not for Hao Tian, he remained indifferent. From the start, he had been aware of Zhao Tuo's presence. In fact, he didn't care if they were discovered, as long as this woman allowed it, it was fine. That's his belief, stupid. "D-Dad?! Why are you here!" Zhao Jia subconsciously cried out in surprise, immediately moving away from him. She took a few steps back, with a red face. Zhao Tuo, didn't know how to react after witnessing the scene before him. He had seen almost everything, ever since Hao Tian held her head. It happened so fast that he couldn't react. Zhao Tuo's current feelings are very complicated, seeing that his daughter also likes this man. On the other hand, he was happy, because Zhao Jia had found her match. But... Still that won't happen, it's impossible. After Hao Tian and his granddaughter's engagement, nothing could be changed. If he carried out two engagements at once, it would tarnish the Zhao family's name, and the Zheng family would not stand by idly by. Moreover, Zhao Jia's husband is not an ordinary person, but a spy. Well, it couldn't be said that he was also fighting for power with Zhao Shulian. From the beginning the zheng family's plan was to destroy the zhao family, that was for sure. It's just that Zhao Jia's husband is a coward, he doesn't dare to do it openly. Except from behind the scenes. One day he put a poisonous object into Zhao Tuo's food, luckily it failed. Otherwise, it would be the end for this old man, and all of the zheng family's wishes would come true. They would forcefully confiscate their property, as well as power from Zhao Peng. "Ah, am I at the wrong time?" Zhao Tuo said with a wry smile. Continue to look at his daughter, a little guilty. He couldn't stop remembering the mistake he made, losing the bet. Therefore, the Zheng family's son managed to become his son-in-law, without any difficulty. "Hehe, you came just in time." Hao Tian replied while continuing to smile. Everything he expected happened, seeing that this old man was not angry. But because Zhao Jia already had a husband, he wondered what was going on in this family. There was no way she would reject their engagement, or her entire family would probably hate her. Zhao Tuo, when he heard his words, felt like crying. He didn't expect a master like Hao Tian to say such sweet words. If only he knew that Hao Tian was much stronger than masters, and above grandmaster, he would definitely have a heart attack. In his entire life he had never met them, grandmasters were hidden existences. Even for first-class families there were only a few people who could meet them, showing how rare they were. Whenever a grandmaster appeared, they would be highly respected, as the strongest existence in China. It should be, but well their view is too narrow. In this world there were still people who were much greater, such as the 12 ancient families. Their residence is very hidden, in a remote place. It is located outside the island of China, no one knows where. "Still, I'm grateful that you taught him a lesson. I hope his attitude can change after this." Zhao Tuo, his eyes fell on Zhao Tang again. It became cold, remembering his scream earlier. 'I failed again as a grandfather...' *step-* *step-* *step-* He started walking towards him, seeing how bad his condition was. He felt sorry but not too much, unlike his first son. He is a firm person, as long as the person makes mistakes. It doesn't matter whether they are good or bad. "My stupid grandson, since you dare to target your own cousin, there will be no mercy for you." he said coldly, without showing the slightest emotion. Even his anger was gone. Since Zhao Tang was still in a semi-conscious state he could hear it, his heart was struck with fear. Moving his eyes slightly upwards, he looked at his grandfather. 'Grandpa...' he wanted to say those words, but couldn't. The wound in his stomach kept getting worse, it couldn't be stopped. As he pondered in fear, a hand grabbed his hair. It was Zhao Tuo's doing, he grabbed his hair so he could pull it. This is a form of punishment, fair. "oh... so cruel, isn't he your grandson?" Hao Tian asked, slightly joking. In fact, he didn't care about Zhao Tuo's actions, thinking it was normal. "Hmph, this is the law and he deserves it." ============= Thanks for reading~
